Unfortunately there was a large maple tree about 40 yards in front and just to the right of the tee-off and Jack's ball hit the tree "smack" in-the- middle, sending it hurtling straight back at him. The ball hit the ground just in front of the tee-off, ran up the knoll to the spot where Jack was standing and contin- | ued through his legs, heading for the river behind him. With a little scampering, he was able to bring his ball to a halt with ~ his driver before it went over the embankment. golfing (it's a lot like fishing stories) but you probably wouldn't want to hear about how it tock four strokes in one of the sand traps to get 12 feet, or how on one hole it took ten strokes just to get to the green with every shot coming out of the rough (it was actually a maple bush), or the time we hit three of our four ball into a pond. No, I'm not going to bore you with a lot of stupid golf sto- ries because if you're a golfer, a least of our calibre, you'll have already experienced many of them. In closing, | would like to congratulate John on his excel- lent game, and suggest to the others (including myself) that golf lessons wouldn't be a bad idea!
