Points versus handicap!!!

Just had a thought... we could use this thread for amusing golf stories - BLATANT HIJACK HERE... HEHEHE
Here goes then:
Course: Miami
Date: Who cares, sometime in 2001
On a corporate day's Golf in Miami, my mate Jeff was on the approach to the eighteenth green and had a shot of some 130 yards to make the green and look really cool.
He was in the last four ball of the day and was being watched by the entire party (approx 40 players). He took his shot, got hold of the ball too bloody good and it sailed over the green, bounced on the patio area (missing everyone), bounced through an open window in the bar, bounced again on the floor inside and then landed in a charty bucket full of balls that players leave when they finish. It was some shot and earned him a round of applause as he walked in - looking very sheepish ... hehehe (he should have played a provisional)
This is the luckiest jammiest git I have ever played golf with and he has a handicap of 28 fgs!!!!!
Sod off wishmaster...hijacking our thread cos u r jealous u couldnt play...bet you think you can win now you have seen that a 24 hadicapper won!!!
