JBones Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 Everybody play along, I'll start. You might be a hack if.......your tee shot leaves a divot that looks like this. This divot tells us a lot about the shot - it did not go well! Most divots give us far less insight into the outcome. pic.twitter.com/V65WHccnxk— Andrew Rice (@AndrewRiceGolf) November 6, 2014 Follow @GolfspyBones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBones Posted November 6, 2014 Author Share Posted November 6, 2014 No joke, I once swung so hard right over the top of the ball that it went straight into the ground, bounced 10' straight backwards, and had so much spin that it shot back up about 5' in front of the tee. My buddy says "only the great Jason Bonesteel can hit a ball backwards and gain positive distance". Follow @GolfspyBones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hckymeyer Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 If your ball leaves a trench in front of the tee on it's way off the tee box. You have back to back rounds of 76 - 93 You 4-putt for bogey You play ping pong with yourself from one greenside bunker to the greenside bunker on the other side of the green Your divot goes farther than the ball It takes you 3 chips to get on the green from 30yds Those are just all from this year that I could remember in a few minutes Driver: SLDR w/ Fujikura Ventus Black 3w: '16 M2 hl w/ Diamana D+ 82 5w: Launcher HB w/ HZRDUS Yellow Hybrid: 22 deg.

Dhuck Whooker Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 Once upon a time, on a 155 yd par 3, I shanked the tee shot OB into the parking lot, had to re-tee, the next shot the ball lands on green and rolls in the hole. Par. That was the only hole-in-three I have ever had. Another career highlight, topped a driver off tee, ball dribbles left towards a bunch of trees about 50 yards away, hits a tree, then bounces back towards me, lands softly in my left hand about waist high, I didn't move an inch. So then I re-teed it, and sliced it into a swamp on the right. Exasperated, the gods left it there. Respectfully,DHUCK WHOOKER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
