Golf terminology

[Flogger]

Hi Ozgolf forum,

Is there a term for holing out from off the green, apart from holing out from off the green?

I can find "slam dunk" for landing in the cup without touching the putting green surface. And "double poley" for sinking a putt from off the green (an old betting term; a "poley" being a putt longer than the flagpole). But I'm looking for a term for sinking an approach shot that bounces or rolls on the green and finds the cup.

Any ideas?

Thanks, Flogger

We call them in offs (worth a bikkie), but I haven't heard the term used outside our group.

Ferret

Ferret is the term that I've heard before.

[Ferrins]

Well I had three in 5 holes the other day, so yeah.

I have always heard it called a sneaky ferret but have no idea on origin or why its "sneaky"

I've never met a ferret that wasn't sneaky.

At Mount Broughton, I heard a Canberran use the term TCD, when it happened in matchplay.

As in 'That **** Dotty'.

Love being called a knut on the golf course by your opposition, assuming you don't live your life as one, it means you have done something good.

I have heard of ferret and gobbler. I don't really use either though.

This. Also heard shots holed from the bunker called a 'Womby' or 'Wombat'.

Ferret here as well

Snake for a longish putt from off the green. Dont think i have ever heard of any term for a full shot holeout.

Snake is a 3stab over here, when there’s a negative prize associated with 3 putting.

The ladies at my club give out balls for "gobblers" - I don't know what they mean by that, but perhaps it's this?

And there lies the snake

That crap is what Blakey lives for.

20 cents on everything you can think of.

He turns a round into a faux game of Dungeons and Dragons.
