Played golf today, and let's just say it didn't go well...
Trebled 1st
Doubled 2nd
Doubled 3rd
So I wasn't too pleased heading onto the 145 yard par 3 4th
Take out my 8 iron to try and hit a little punchy shot to the middle of the green,
I end up chunking it about about 45 yds.
then set up to play a flick of a sw,
take a monster divot and dunk the ball in the greenside bunker
the pin is cut about 8 yds on and the bunker face is deep,
I got over ambitious and tried to explode the ball out and ended up thinning it into the bunker face,
then playing my 4th I air-mailed the green by about 60 yds.
and that's when I lost it,
I flung my new lob wedge back towards my bag which was near the next tee, and unfortunately was also near a large tree,
Needless to say my club got stuck about 30 ft up the tree, and after attempting to climb the tree and shake it loose,
I soon gave up and shook hands with my bemused playing partners, and retired to the bar after just 4 holes.
I think im gonna take a break from golf for 2-3 months. I seem to be getting worse and worse and have got 4 shots back in the last 6 months.
Anyone else have any similar golfing stories, or any advice on how not to tilt on the golf course and throw away your new €199 lob wedge?
Full Version: I Hate Golf
i played tiger woods '06 today, eagled 7 holes plus 2 holes in one.
as far as real golf, it is relaxing. a beer, clunking a ball around with friends. if this enrages you, you're not doing it right anyways & you might as well toss the rest of your clubs up that tree.

About 18 months ago, I bought a Titleist Vokey wedge for £100. 2 weeks later I accidentally left it on the edge of a green in Scotland. Didn't notice it was gone until my next round 3 days later.

I'd recommend asking whoever raped you for that much money for a wedge to climb the tree and get it down. For that price, you shouldn't even have to swing it.
