My bet there is probably a No Swimming sign posted somewhere. They should change the tradition to jumping in a sand trap. No doubt somebody would get hurt doing that too.
It's another one of those "They should have disclosed the hazard." alibis. Whatever happened to anybody just saying "I screwed up". I shouldn't have done it.

I got hurt years ago at my buddie's golfcourse. I was driving a golfcart with 9 people on it, at night with no moon, we had a little bit to drink. I rolled the cart in a sandtrap.
I got laughed at, I hurt my ego (I think).

My buddie should have had a lighted sign on the course about the dangers of drinking and golfing.

I just remembered. On a golf course they call it a water hazard. I guess the word hazard is there for a reason.

A golfer, now into his golden years, had a lifelong ambition to play the 17th hole at TPC Sawgrass in Ponte Verde, Fla., exactly the way the pros do it.

The pros drive the ball out over the water onto the small green that is on a small spit of land. It was something the golfer had tried hundreds of times without success. His ball had always fallen short, into the water.

Because of this, he never used a new ball on this particular hole. He always picked out one that had a cut or a nick, as did many other "average" golfers when negotiating very challenging holes.

Recently he went to Sawgrass to try again. When he came to the fateful hole, he teed up an old, cut ball as usual, and said a silent prayer.

However, before he could hit the ball, a powerful voice from above seemed to be booming out from the clouds, saying:

"Wait! Replace that old ball with a brand new one."

The golfer complied, with some slight misgivings, despite the fact that this same force seemed to be implying that he was going to finally achieve his lifelong ambition.

As he stepped up to the tee once more, the voice came down again:

"Wait. Step back. Take a practice swing."

So he stepped back and took a practice swing, certain now that this heavenly force was going to make his dream come true.

The voice boomed out again:

"Take another practice swing."

Dutifully, he did. He stopped expectantly and waited ...

A long silence followed ...

Then the voice again:

"Use the old ball."

Nobody here or there is blaming the owner. The writer simply suggested the owner might want to make it deeper. I agree. Nothing to see here.

True

Quote:

Now, might I suggest something, because I know things like this usually call for an overreaction -- instead of scratching this fun tradition, why doesn't the golf course just make that area a little deeper, or have an area that you can jump into without fear of injury.



Or why don't they just frolic at the ball washer? Start a new tradition of washing your balls.



Your way too dismissive today CC. Whatcha got?
