When golfing gets rough

Paul Turner /The Slice readers share some doozy golfing mishaps in today’s column: “I have never been hit by a golf ball but I’ve seen it happen,” wrote Bob Witte of Sandpoint. “Several years ago while playing in a tournament on the coast, a player in our foursome sliced his drive into an adjoining fairway where the ball struck a woman on the head. We went over to check her out but she said she was OK and continued to play. A few hours later the same member of our group hit another errant tee shot, this time hitting THE SAME woman directly on the forehead. This time she wasn’t as OK and had to be carted back to the clubhouse for medical attention.” More here .

Question: Are you a duffer? Grandpa Doug tried to teach me golf, but after I put a few sizeable divots in his yard, he told me I was hopeless. I’ll stick with fishing.
