i'm a prat!

Was playing a few years ago and my putting had been awful. Not just bad....awful.
Walked off the 12th green after four putting, tossed my ball up in the air and in anger took a swipe at it as it was dropping with my putter.
I hit the ball with the shaft just above the hosel and snapped it, the putter head went flying into the undergrowth. Knob.....

i personally havent done it but iv seen my grandad come close to throwing his cart into the river lol needless to say he kept his cool and held back

 

[Parmo]

What an idiot OP.

I played with a lad once who threw his club at his bag bending the shaft on his 7i on the 9th then proceeded to top his tee shot on the 10th and once again threw his club after the ball, funny thing was his club went further than the ball lol.

I've never really been a club thrower, I just raise it in anger and tap it on the ground lol

I've never been a club thrower more of a club dropper. Sometimes a really bad shot happens and I'll let the club fall out of my hands. These days they're too damn expensive to chuck!!

I'm a club dropper too. I used to very very rarely be a chucker but I saw sense when my brother snapped his TM RAC 7 iron when it was only 2-3 months old. He swung at his bag with it and caught the side of his trolley and snapped it clean in half....I had done this in the past but obviously got away with it!!

I havent chucked a club for ages now as i'd be devastated if I snapped one of my babies

Got that t-shirt, but I don't wear it anymore. Now I wear one that says, "Be the best playing partner you can be."

 

[freddielong]

When I was younger I used to do it all the time, must have broke so many clubs in my time but not ant more
I did this thing called growing up you should try it Lol.

 

[Spoff]

I think I *might* have been a club thrower.

But the lad I play with is a club thrower and seeing someone else do it has made me realise how daft it looks.

So far they've always stayed in my hand.

 

[TipTopGolfer]

Ive done it a couple of times but never broke my clubs so im guessing im very lucky lol

 

[TWM]

I'm sure you have learned your lesson. But if you haven't... DON'T DO IT AGAIN!!!

 

[Faldo_Fan]

nope never done that!

 

[callawayjon]

I've done it!

 

[sasquatch]

I have developed a short dance to relieve my frustration, much to the amusement of my fourball. Was playing in a competition one day and another player hit his bag a smack with his putter after missing a short putt. At the next tee as he took out driver only the head came out of the bag. The look on his face was priceless. It was a new R7 at the time.

A guy at Strathclyde Park (Bug Alka Broon) used to go through 4-5 drivers a year. I was with him once when he tossed his 7 iron into the trees at tha 3rd and he near;y had a coronary when I asked him if he wanted to throw a provisional?

One of the first golden rules the aspiring "club chucker" should learn is to always throw the offending club ahead of you. That way you won't slow your playing partners down by having to go back to retrieve it.
