20 Sept

Oh what a day! A warm fine day with rain predicted late in the afternoon. Everything was going smoothly until our group were lining up our putts on the third hole par three. A faint but nevertheless a call of “FOUR” was heard before a ball just missed Brads head and then smacked into Clive’s groin. Nearly two heads in one shot

Now Floaty or Fluffy as one of his player partners was calling him ( Dom ) mastered two sensational shots to be over the back of the par 5  last hole ( the ninth Classic Nine ) well done Fluff Man. But alas some of the fluffiness went missing as it took another four shots to get down for a bogey!

This next story is not so much about the story itself  but more about the story behind the story!

There was another person who was hit with a golf ball , Clappers . Now you would think that if you got hit with a golf ball you would remember where it happened. You would also think that the person who was responsible for hitting someone, Kiwi would remember where it happened. Neither of them could remember!

Clappers said it was on the back nine Kiwi reckoned front nine neither could pinpoint which hole. After at least twenty minutes Clappers came back to me with it was on the front nine and Kiwi came back with no it was on the back nine but neither could still pick the hole. So I let them discuss it between themselves for a little while longer. It was finally agreed it was on the back nine (phew) Kiwi played his second shot from the fairway with his usual hooking shot not hooking. FOUR was called but unfortunately Clappers ( who was standing on the next tee bed ) was unaware of the call and the ball hit him on the ankle. Ouch. Joe after the fact yelled “look out” and then the ball ricocheted off Greg’s ankle back towards the green for Kiwi to get up and down for a par. It took close to fifty minutes for these two to get the correct hole. Unbelievable!
