Worst ever golf experience.

[sacker12]

I just "finished" my first ever round of golf. I tried to play 9 holes, but only completed 3 holes because I lost all of my balls on the 4th hole, which is a par 5 with a huge water hazard. So, I just forfeited the rest of my holes. That was a very maddening experience.

That said, what was the worst ever golf experience that you have ever had?

Once at a local course i sliced a ball terribly and it left the fairway and hit a glasstop table at one of the nearby houses. They made me pay $300 for a new frickin table.

Then I 6 putted and got a seven on the par 3 hole

I was 11

Quite Frightening

I hit a pine tree while driving the golf cart. I can only play online golf not the real game.

How about Golden Tee Golf?

A friend of mine hit two shots into the water, and then had a full-blown meltdown over it. He was on pace to shoot in the high 70s, and this was going to cost him...he hit the golfcart with his club, which sent the head and half of the shaft flying into the water. When he took a step into what he thought was 6 inches of water to get the club, it was too late...it was actually silt, and he sunk in up to his chest.

For him: worst golf experience ever.

For those watching: best golf experience ever.

I feel your pain. The reason why I sliced all my balls is because I sliced them real bad.

No just the ones on Nabiscos website and Candystand.

This one was just funny. I was playing with a guy I hadn't met before, he was invited to join us for a round on the behalf of my friend. On the first hole, he took shot after shot after shot until he was out of balls, and not a single one made it anywhere close to the green, or going straight for that matter. He started screaming and hollering, then started breaking every single newly bought golf club by slamming them onto his thigh, snapping them in half. At the time it was frightening, but now it's just hilarious.

So far all of them...

When I was 11 I shot a 19 on a Par-4. Between trees and water I probably lost five balls. I think I 6-putted or something after chiping back and forth over the green a couple of times.

Of course, it came one hole after getting a hole-in-one, so I don't bitch about it.

I feel for bucfan, I've got a wicked slice and have sent shots into various dangerous places with it. I used to play in an annual scramble at a course next to a highway, had to be really careful there, cleared the trees a couple of times but I never heard anyone crash because of me. Half the time I just aim way the hell out to the left and let the slice carry back on to the fairway.

What is that, like 4 under par?

You know why they call it golf...

No real horror stories (mainly because I know that I don't have the depth perception to play golf.) except on the mini-golf courses. Just as well, I'd either wreck the golf cart and/or chuck my clubs into the nearest water hazard...just after accidently beaning a famous lawyer.

golf is one of those sports no matter how terrible you are you keep going back. t he only reason why is because every round you have that ONE shot that makes you think you might have the hang of it.

before you go out go to a used sporting good place and buy like 30 balls this way you wont run out in the first hour.

This isn't the worst I've had, but it's funny.

My wife and I, shortly after we met, decided to go out on a date by going golfing. We're both awful golfers, but that didn't matter.

Anyway, we were at a par 3 hole, and I teed the ball up really, really high. I took a beautiful swing, but couldn't see the ball. I looked down and here I had hit the tee out from under the ball. The tee, for all I knew, made it to the green. I thought it was pretty funny, but my wife, whom I really didn't know that well at the time, didn't laugh. I thought, "Hmmm, she must not have much of a sense of humor."

Two holes later, she was about to tee off. But she started doubling over, laughing. "I'm so sorry," she said, "but that was so funny two holes back. I tried to control it, but I just couldn't help it. It was so funny. It was like something you'd see in the cartoons."

Here we are, nearly 14 years later, happily married and trying to avoid the golf course.
