That was awesome. Harrington's great fun, and does some pretty crazy stuff at the range. You ever seen him do the Happy Gilmore? He's amazing at it.

They've put up a notice at my range telling us not to do this any more. Spoilt all the fun!

Idiot IMO.
I think the ball collector should have done what one of my staff did once.
Drive right up to the front of the bay and shout 'can you hit it from here you f%^$£^g brainless a%*()*&e'.
He came into my office to complain and I banned him from the range.

Range ball collectors all over the country, be afraid, be very afraid.
Well done porridge, good fun:thup:
who did you ban, driver or range customer?

The customer of course, he thought it was fair game to endanger the life of one of my staff.
if his life really is in danger then why is he allowed to go out while the range is live? Does he not have protection? Did you ban the accidental hits from customers as the result is the same?

The second time he hits it , it looks like he fats it.

Waiting for the buggy to come near and hitting full blooded drives at it.....yes.
Customer ignoring warning signs.
I take that those who think it is 'fun' to aim for the buggy have never driven a ball collector on a range.
Harrington's behaviour was very poor, I'm surprised the Tour did not take action. Or maybees the have, they do tend to keep these things quiet.

The advert was from the tour - seems you have clearly missed the humour in the advert

Behave yourself
People have been hitting ball collectors for decades - either accidentally or having a giggle aiming at them
They are fully protected all round so no one is in danger
It was an advert from the European Tour to show a bit of humour from golfers
It appears you have missed the point by a country mile

Are you not realising this is a abit of a joke. Pretty sure the driver knew before hand.

Did you get out of the wrong side of bed today?
You wouldn't need to watch the video were pro golfers blow up a boat!

It was obviously a set up with cameras at the different angles, etc. I'm sure the driver was also in on it, doubt he was in any danger

This is standard operating procedure at the belfry. Even the staff fire at the ball collector. They're in a blumin metal cage so whats the problem? Its great fun

Great video, loved it! Showed the humour too, good to see, more of this please!
A European Tour video so pretty certain the ball collector was aware of what's occurring. Very good and good to see Porridge having a laugh. He's a top bloke. He's another who I hope finds a semblance of consistency and form again soon
