What is your greatest recovery story on the golf course?
Was it to win a hole in match play or salvage a par in a medal?
Was playing against Kilmarnock Barassie last year, I topped my tee shot off the 539 yard par 5, 8th into deep heather in front of the tee, it barley made it past the ladies tee. Wedged out 3 wood to the corner of the dogleg 5 iron left side of the green. My opponent was just short of the green in 3. he then duffed his chip, but still had a 15 footer for par, while I had a 60+ foot down hill double breaker also for par. The ball never looked anywhere other than in the hole from the moment I hit it. His par put lipped out, he could not believe it and neither could I.
I had a good one last Saturday as well in our Dornoch match.
One up, shanked if off the 11th tee of the 156 yard par 3. The ball ended up in the middle of the 10th fairway 90 yards away from the green. while my opposition was short of the green but still had 20 foot put for birdies
wedged it to 10 feet and sank the put, while my oppo 3 putted.
Its never over till the ball is in the hole
