WORST TEE MOMENT This is easy. It happened this last December, on the 23rd at 8:00 am to be exact. I play in a group of about 20 guys and we separate the teams based on the through of the golf balls on the first team. The groups were set and I ended up in the first group. The first group is the team the tees off first, and is some what nerve racking with all the guys in the groups behind you right there watching. Your only though is basically to make good contact and don't hook or slice one OB. Well, I got up there as the first guy in the first group and heeled one into the houses on the direct left side off the tee box. The ball smashed through a side window and made a whole lot of noise once inside the house. The lady of the house came out immediately screaming and crying because the golf ball had knocked over the Christmas tree and broke several of her expensive Christopher Radcliff ornaments. I felt horrified to say the least. I tried to calm her, only to see her become more and more angry. Luckily for me her husband came out a moment later and told to go on our way. He was a golfer and had broken a few windows of his own and understood that living on the course brings unavoidable situations. Needless to say, I ended up paying for the window because I felt so bad. Danny I.
