One of our gang is very intelligent, but famously capable of senior moments....
On Saturday it was a Greensomes comp. I was partnering him... he went into the shop, paid the entry fee, filled in the card, swapped it on the first tee with other pair and off we went. Playing nicely, we arrived on the 10th tee when one of the other pair to comment "I've got you 19?"
I've no idea, says my mate, Ian is scoring. "No I am not..... you are!" No, he insists, before a forage in his pockets finds the other pair's card. But he had scored the first....then stopped! No idea why, and neither did he.
Another of his famous ones was talking the wrong route to the tee on a shotgun start, arriving late and not playing the first hole. He's only been a member 20 years!
But as far as I know, he's never been DQ'd for not having a bag!! (see other thread)
I am sure you have similar tales.....
