Golf Republic Charity Golf Tournament on 21st August 2009

wow the way rage broke his driver is classic.....

Tee-up and wanted to bet on longest drive, double press and double or nothing at the last hole. whack his driver at 120 MPH and it hit a tree and ricochet back and landed left of the ladies tee and under a tree.

proceed to walk in an enraged manner towards the ball and all this while when MC was about to tee off. shouting obscenities that even MT cannot repeat, he took his stance, ball below feet and a small tree a sand wedge way. he was holding his driver. we shouted...."No.." but it was too late, the driver snapped and the next thing we know he was in the bushes looking for the driver head.

of course in the confusion and at the conclusion, we dared not asked for our winning bet as the man was obviously in a rage.

DGman

PS...it was really a fun day, lots of laughter can be heard a few holes away and the lads and the ladies all had a great day...thanks sunny and missmoon, MC, the Rage, S8 for the organisation and everyone for contributing to the Autism Association.

Wow...hopefully the driver head is ok...looks like a titlest head.

Congrats for a well run event....and looking forward the for the next

hardrock is the one who help to ferry the deserts from the sponsors. Thank you so much... after the game, it is something nice and cooling. The effort is very much appreciated

yes.. that is probably one of the top 10 classic moments in my golfing life... and will probably remain on that spot for a long time to come..

i believe eric's description does no justice to the hilarity of the situation. we probably will have to engage a TV crew for the next golf republic tournament to film such events down...

i think the salient points are

1. G_Man wanted to bet longest drive for that hole
2. DGMan's drive went quite far
3. So did MC's
4. rage tried to bomb his driver and the ball hit a big tree trunk that was a mere 10m away. and the tree was to the right of the cartpath. This point alone is funny enough to get us all laughing.
5. rage took his driver and walked to the tree.
6. rage was addressing the ball, all this while, DGMan was telling him not to do it..
the next second, the driver shaft broke.
7. hilarity ensued
that's the sequence of events.

sounds like you guy had fun!

MY flight mate walks around in a Hello Kitty belt. When asked why Hello Kitty; his reply was, "I wanted to get Xiao Ding Dang, but i was concern it would be too much"

Thanks to the organizers for the great game and also thanks to my flight mates for putting up with me...

I agree.

It should be 'Ugly 4-eyed Beast' instead.

SS, please be more descriptive next time.

nb. what happened to animal.

i guess The Rage took it.

Had some crazy fun with Slinger, Siaw8 and Lostsoul

Thanks Slinger for sharing course layout details, your local
in depth knowledge makes me wonder if you were a Warren member. Also your suaning sessions with
Siaw8 added much fun and live to the game.

Siaw8 I was amazed with your 200m 3 wood shot, great
potential.

Lostsoul very kilat with skins and everything, even more
kilat on your skin! Shall fix up a game soon, to recoup my losses…
