Mine has to be during my first year of high school golf. That was the first year I had ever played, and I was playing with a kid who had been on the team for a couple years. At our course, there is a long par 5 that runs parallel to a road. There is a little opening in the tree line beside the tee box where a power line comes through. The boy I was playing with tried to Happy Gilmore the ball and ended up putting it right up the little cut, and directly into the grill of a big Dodge Ram. I had already to hit my ball so needless to say I was trying to book it up the fairway to mine before the guy could stop and come after the kid.

Without a doubt, losing a ball in a dry(well what I though to be dry) old lake and trying to retrieve it only to sink down in the mud. When all was said and done I lost both of my shoes, the ball, and a glove. Needless to say the story is infamous at the golf club and they have nicknamed me "two shoes" for the number of shoes I lost The video says it all.

Been a lot of years ago, but I can still see it like it was yesterday. My brother and I were playing our home course on a very busy day and the tee box we were on was pretty close to another tee box that angled away to the right. The other tee box had a foresome with two carts parked next to it and the guys were just hopping into their cart as my sb tee's off. He tried to kill his drive, but instead hit the ball almost straight right, it was a low missile about 200 mph. I have no idea how these guy's all saw that ball coming, but all four guy's bailed out of the carts to the ground and SMACK!

In my minds eye it all happened in slow motion and to this day reminds me of the old Magnum PI re-run's of a jump and roll from the moving van. All said and done, these guy's were laughing about it as hard as we eventually did.

Very first tee a few years ago: Hit my drive right into the "Cart Path Only" sign, bounced back, and rolled over to the starter. The starter walked over and said "I believe that is a mulligan," handed me the ball and walked away.

Almost a carbon copy of this duey, I took a buddy out for his very first (and last) time. The #1 tee box was directly to the left and about 50 yds from #9 green. You know that the ball went dead right and directly in the leg of a guy standing on that green. My buddy was all apologetic and the guy was actually pretty cool about it. Funny in retrospect but actually fairly intense when it happened. And there was nothing slow motion about this one, BAM and it was over.

I have 3 that I always tell when sharing golf stories

1) Playing with mu buddies. On the 1st tee, one of my friends tees off. His drive is a screaming worm burner. The cart path of the 1st tee crosses the fairway about 50yd out. His worm burner hits the front end of the path, ball comes back at him, still in his pose lifts his foot up just like a runner on 1st avoids a single to right, ball goes under his foot, picks up his tee, and he shakes his head.

2) we had 8 playing that day so we had 2 groups going. I was in the first. While waiting on par 3 on the 4th hole, I hear this big bang and rattling as if somebody just threw something in the trash. My good friend in the group behind from 150yd out flew it over the green and into a water cooler cage. Walked over to check it out. Amazing shot. He asked me what does mean, I said "1 shot penalty, its an unplayable lie."

3) My senior year on the golf team during try outs I was walking to the green 3rd hole. The group behind me tees off. I hear FOOORREEEE! I duck but no ball. Found out the fore was for the group on the par 3 hole parallel to ours. All of sudden I hear the group on the par 3 green shaking their head and laughing. The kid that hit the ball walks to green and starts jumping up and down for joy yelling "I got a hole in one!"

At the end of the round, talked to my coach. Asked him if had heard. He said yes and he said the kid still thinks he got a hole in one. Amazing shot, yes. Hole in one, no.

Now, every time we play together and I hear a squirrel somewhere chirping, I tell him, "That squirrel is still there, talking s**t"

Too funny LMAO

Myu friends and I played a really nice course in R.I. and we were done.So we go walking back to our cars,mind u this was still the steel spike era,and there were speed bumps in the parking lot.Well my buddy walks backwards to tell us to meet in clubhouse when he does a full gainer backwards over the speedbump!3 of us could not stop laughing including the guy who fell.That was the story of the 19th.hole that afternoon.He was o.k. just his ego was bruised

My buddy and I stopped at the turn for beverages and food. He was up next on the tee and put his hot dog on the dashboard of the open air cart. He was on the tee when a crow swooped down from a tree and perched himself on the front of the cart, where he grabbed the dog from the bun. I yelled "hey bird!", my friend turned and saw the bird stealing his dog and ran back toward the cart yelling something like "AAAWWWW!!!", club in hand being mindlessly flaileded about as if it were a real threat to anything. The crow took the the dog and flew up to a tree limb, ate it then started mocking him with a loud and obnoxious "CAW!". My friend stood there bumfounded then hit his driver OB right. Classic.

Lesson #1: You never set your food down on hole number 10 at any golf course!

This one is kind of more stupid than funny, but it happened this year. Me and my friend were playing a new course and came to a par 3. My friend didn't believe the yardage and so he took a club that was 2-3 more than what I was planning to hit. He hit a terrible and pretty chunky shot, but we watched as it bumped and rolled through rough, popped over a bunker, and ended up 15 feet from the hole. We just stared at each other and then laughed.

We played there again and after he hit his real tee shot, he hit one with the club he used before and we watched it sail over the green and disappear in the woods without coming near the ground. Laughed some more at that.

This belongs in the luckiest shot thread!

First year of high school golf and I'm at tryouts playing with a Senior. He was bad. Had the biggest slice I have seen to date. So we went along our rounds and he was going right every hole, no matter what he did he could not take the right side of the course out of play. So he eventually started aiming left and trying to play it back in to the fairway, this didn't work out so well as the course is very narrow and lined with trees, it would either go in to the trees on the left or not reach the trees left and cut back to the trees on the right. He got frustrated and just tried to finish as fast as possible. Down to #18 and he pipes his only drive that hit the fairway today and it was dead straight, he was so happy. 200 yards out and he says, I'm going for it! He takes a hybrid out of his bag, lines up for a cut, and boom. 80 yard snap hook, the first and only of the day, right in to the back of the general manager's car window. So unlikely and so unlucky. Here's the damage.
