    Shank out of the bunker yesterday on 17.
    Came out 80 degrees right and ended up in the boonge next to the 2nd tee. Found the ball and dropped.
    Chunked the chip. Picked the ball up and threw back into the boonge where it belonged.

    Dear KJ,

    If it wasn't with an ozgolfer it didn't happen.

    Then I won't report on the 2 I had during a practice round yesterday that both nearly killed the mate I was playing with.

    I should probably claim the one i had last Sunday. Chip from thick rough just in front of 8th green (gold 9 at Indooroopilly). Went 5 meters hard right. Think it might have been a 9 iron.

    Does the practice facility at Ozgolf champs count? If so put me down for half a dozen or so.

    I should get the loft and lie checked on my 5 iron. That much hosel work would surely have moved something.

    Nearly took out wazamac and jasonb on the 3rd at the Vines today. Should have been a straightforward chip onto the green and then whoops head high tracer bullet straight at them

    Then again on the 15th but no one in the way of that one

    Someone from the group needs to confess about their effort on 17. Name starts with j and rhymes with mason...

    Have too own up today. Not sure if it was an open blade but it may of had a tickle of Shaft....

    Second shot on the 10th today from 130m. Went to punch it in low with a runner but the head was up before the club started down.

    Same hole, I can beat this. Hit my drive left, had 110m out on a sand path and needed to get over a tree, proceeded to hosel rocket it down in the same direction as waz.
    Get to my ball, it's sitting down in a hole, have to fly over a bunker and stop it quickly. Bladed it over the back of the green, picked up from there.

    Head all over the shop at the moment.

    Counted about 7-8 shanks over the past two weeks. 5 of them were even reverse, hitting the inside of the heel.
    How s**t is golf.

    Did you manage to hit the boonge?
