    Default Moose thread

    Had a ten lately, then tell us your tale of woe.

    For me.

    Carbrook Shark back tee event, today 10th hole.

    Short dog leg right, which is a fairway metal tee shot and a 9 iron approach.
    Well in theory anyway.

    1/ 7 wood into the middle of the lake
    2/ penalty
    3/ Dropped and then hit 6 iron into the waste bunker before the green
    4/ air mailed the flag into the back hazard next to the creek.
    5/ advanced ball 2metres remaining in hazard.smashed my new wedge into a brick that was hidden in the tundra.
    6/ swipe with no contact
    7/ out and next to green
    dropped 2 balls that I found in the hazard and smashed them into the river.
    8/ bump and run
    9/ putt
    10/ putt

    There is also an OOB area at the left right back of that green! lucky you missed it!

    It has been a while since I had a moose, I will have to look back in my stats and see if can remember the pain!

    Kennedy Bay Classic Stroke Round: Saturday Round.

    13th Par 5. One of the easier holes on the course

    1) Tee shot into shit right. Prov melted up the centre.
    2) Aldo finds tee shot perched in a shrub. 7 iron perpendicular to line of play.
    3) Found in a little divot type hole in the shit on the other side of fairway. Wedge into ball into bush.
    4&5) Drop into same divot hole. Lost ball into bush.
    6&7) See above
    wedge out success! 200 m to go.
    9) Big high gay cut. Lost.
    10&11) Hybrid to front edge of green.
    12) Gay chip to about 30 feet.
    13) Really gay putt to about 15-20 feet.
    14) Sink massive curler for a 14!

    Sunday Round

    18th Hole Par 4 One of the hardest holes on the course.

    1) Good tee shot into the teeth of the wind. Approx 200m to go.
    2) Decide to lay up into some bushes about 100m short and right of the green. Hit Prov exactly where I want it.
    3&4) While having cursory look for surely lost ball playing partner finds ball. Forced to take drop. Hit solid seven iron approx 5m left of green into the shit. Prov lands pin high.
    5) While having cursory look for surely lost ball helpful playing partner finds it in deep kack. Have no line to go back on, attempt to chip out. Airswing.
    6) Make contact this time, and actually get it to move slightly forward.
    7) Great success! Chip out but the contouring of the hole causes the ball to roll back from the green, along a cart path and into some more shrubbery completely blocked out.
    8&9) Helpful course pro gives rules advice on taking a line back to driving range. Hit solid 50m wedge to approx 10 feet.
    10) Putt just curls by.
    11) Tap in par.

    The 11 hurt more, both time I had other balls in such good spots, but this guy treated it like hide and go seek and just refused to give up!

    Great thread. I haven't had one for a few rounds, but I'm sure I'll be a regular contributor to this one.

    My wife has an uncle who is known to all and sundry at his club as 'Moose'. He regularly does the name justice.

    is there a worse feeling in golf than sinking a bomb for a 14?

    It didn't feel good. I can see the funny side now. At the time I was really struggling.

    I thought it was pretty funny. Both then and now.

    I laughed after the wedges into the bushes. The lost hybrid was just plain rude.

    That area of #13 is a grave yard

    We can perhaps call a 14 an Albayoss...

    It was both funny and painful at the same time.

    Wouldn't that make it 14? Two stroke penalty for hitting the wrong ball. Twice.


    And a 10 is a moose, as it can be characterised by holding 10 fingers up at the side of the head, like moose antlers.
    You don't get me. I'm part of the Union.

    Hopefully, no Scottys were harmed in the making of this moose?!
