V2 Golf: ball marker of shame

First topic message reminder :

The talk of Nalbandians little episode and of course the constant complaining about Tiger and others on course antics got me thinking. Surely we have all had some pretty unsavoury moments on the course that have brought nothing but shame and embarrassment?

On another thread I admitted to one of my rather distasteful moments on the course;

“I remember once in a junior competition I “abused” a volunteer who could not find my ball, despite the fact it practically landed in his flask. I think I may have called him a bad word or something. I proceeded to receive a real dressing down back in the clubhouse and my dad had to try very hard to smooth over the situation.

The guy had the cheek to claim I should have shouted four and he would have known it was coming. But what the hell was he doing if he was not watching the balls!!!”


Not one of my finer moments, so let’s share with the rest of the board some on course behavior that we wish we could take back or at least that we now feel some pangs of guilt about?

This will become particularly juicy if someone admits to cheating.

Mac has always said there was something dodgy about you Fader. I think that deserves a cut for the Eclectic

Mysti, what makes me the wrongun! Your the one indulging in the shady lady brekkie!

Grumps based on the last card I should get an increase haha.

Is that the disguise you wear when your over haha....

Any I'm told its their type of breakfast, not that I would know with my catholic boy background!

You never been there Fader??

Come on be honest - this is what this thread is about - right?

I'll tell no lies by not saying I haven't!

Yesterday at BMW:

Lara had 15 clubs in bag noticed on second hole.

Caddy took bag into bush and hid it.

Partner spotted and collared him.

Got DQD.

Must be front runner for ball marker of shame.

That is shocking.

Not good for the player, if he is entirely innocent.

And probably a bit career-limiting for the caddy himself.

Just as well the caddy had not entered the bush to release some poopie, would have been very awkward.

There's a joke there somewhere about hiding a shaft in a bush...
