Funniest Golfing Moment: During our one of many $10 trips playing with Rabbit and Macka. Rabbit was excited that Macka was using a distance finder and arriving on a part 3 hole,Rabbit walks over to the buggy to check the distance. Has a good look at the gadget and at the hole, goes to his bag and changes clubs. After his usual ritual before hitting the ball (listening for every noise five kilometers away, etc) he hits the ball as clean as the pro, but the ball only went half way. In his amazement he just could not understand why his ball did not go very far. He confirms that the distance finder showed a distance of 80 meters to the flag… Macka grabs the gadget to check the distance, and YES it was 80 meters but to the previous hole flag as Rabbit forgot to press the button to go to the next hole.. which was around 155 meters long. We could not stop laughing for the next few holes and Rabbit did not rely on looking at the distance finder again!

FUNNIEST GOLFING MOMENT: Most Saturdays a pretty funny, so are our trips away and Rabbit trying to hit out of a bunker 17 times was a classic but I think the thing that always sticks in my mind is when I stopped playing rugby and took up golf I was super competitive and could not understand why I was not as good as the professionals. The usual tantrums and club throwing started to creep in my game when an old fellow I was playing with one day pulled me aside and said listen would you rather hit that poor shot or hear darling once you finished the gardening I want to go shopping. I then understood what my Saturday golf was all about.
