SHALIMAR, Fla. – When people think of winter golfing in Florida, they often think of a calm, restful experience enjoying the lush, green scenery and balmy breezes of the Sunshine State.

What usually does not come to mind is a sudden blast from an air horn by mischief-minded teenagers.

But such a situation took place over the weekend, prompting a pair of elderly golfers to go ballistic with a golf-ball finder.

I could think of two scenarios:

1 - The elderly golfers get really angry, yell, then grasp their chest faking a heart attack.

2 - Find nearest water hazard. Toss teen into it. Bonus points if an alligator is nearby ;-)

The little creeps are lucky that neither of the golfers had a heart attack.

The kid is 15 year old. That’s not a child. That’s not endangered.

I hope the names of the kids get out on the net. That will help their chances with college and future jobs.

Our idea of a golf course prank was to hide behind the 18th green, which was a “blind” par four (cant see from the tee).

Occasionally someone would roll one up near the green and we would grab it and put it in the hole.

They would come over the hill, search for the ball, not find it, then start with a new ball, finding their original “Hole in One” ball once they putted out. Cheers and back slaps all round, then to the 19th hole bar.

We could only do this a few times before the greenskeeper, who LIVED at the 19th hole bar, would come out and chase us away.

. . . smackdown to the geezers . . . ,

Why freepers continually feel the need to show disrespect for older folks. Makes you look and sound like a fool. I suspect that if you disrespect my father-in-law like that, he would show you what a senior beat-down is really like.

They ought to demand trial by jury and go for a jury nullification.

Don’t know about the 2 iron. Lee Trevino once quipped that when he’s on the course and it starts lightning, he holds up his 2 iron because, he says, not even God can hit a 2 iron.

No sir. Not a ball retriever.

That there is a ball WASHER.

You gotta retrieve those babies on your own before proceeding to WASHER.

Better check ‘em after leaving the WASHER too, come to think of it.

lol
