Unashamedly stolen from golfwrx but useful to hear what we've heard this side of the Atlantic at ranges.


I've heard many but recently had two 'rough' gentlemen in the stall in front flailing away killing snakes. one said "Danny, Danny did ye see that one, hit the top of the back fence"

it very clearly just limped past the 180yd board but his mate said "effing brilliant man, you're hitting them baws like a boss!":eek:
 
I heard/saw something quite funny while putting last night.

Off the matted section, you could clearly hear a lad catching every single shot heavy. you could hear the thump of the matt, then the club face hitting the ball.

His mate then pipes up

"Your ripping these tonight"

I wasn't sure if he was referring the matt or the ball.

:mad:
 
Remember hearing a bloke exlaining to his mate exactly what he had changed on each ball so as to 'deliberately' produce the slice/hook/thin/fat/top or whatever other poor shot that he had hit. Will always rember how a big banana hook was actually just putting a bit much draw on it.
 
I remember one guy in the bay next to me once getting chatting to me about various things after i had been there about 10 mins. One of the things he was concerned about was people saying he shouldn't really be playing with better player irons at his level (off 14 iirc). Then he brought over one of his irons (9I i think it was) and said "look at the marks on this club all on the sweetspot, i seem to hit the middle a lot if you look at this so what do you think?"



I wasn't really sure what to say so i said "Just do what makes you happy mate" whilst trying hard not to laugh :rofl:
 
There was a strange looking bloke in the bay behind me once, with a mop top haircut who was shanking every single one, so hard that each ball was crashing into the board between us. I would have been a gonner if the board had not been there. Then he says to me 'excuse me, but where's the 100 yard marker?'.

I did explain that there wasn't one, but had there been, it would have sat between the 50 yard marker and the 150 yard marker out there.
 
not 'heard' but saw a guy step forward off the mat onto the grass, pull up some grass and toss it into the air:eek:
 
Going back a couple of years there was a chap in the bay next to me who had his girlfriend/wife watching (no it wasn't Homer ;)). He was slapping it all over the place for about 20 minutes and then at one point we hit one almost in unison. Mine being a driver which I smoked, his being something else which I saw fly across the front of my bay. His Mrs clearly saw my ball and said "Wow was that you?", I couldn't help laughing out loud when he claimed it was.

Bet he got laid that night thanks to You :D

I sure did, cheers hawkeye :cheers:
 
Saw a dad telling this kid in minute intricate detail how to stand, swing and hit the thing and then berate him when the poor soul dobbled it in front of him. He could only have been about 7. In the end the dad said "let me show you" and so I stopped to watch a masterclass. He promptly shanked it into the side wall, watched me standing there and mumbled something and let the kid get on with it in silence. And guess what? With no pressure he actually got a few away nicely. Had to smile at the dad as he left
