Is that a Mulligan, or strokes added?

I love the part where the punk says, "Next time I'll f**k you up!"

Ha, if he hasn't learned anything from this the next time the old dude just might plant him in the ground!

I think millenial asshattery might qualify as a 'rub of the green', so no extra strokes. Just put the ball back where it was like it never happened:
quote:
If a player’s ball in motion after a stroke on the putting green is deflected or stopped by, or comes to rest in or on, any moving or animate outside agency, except a worm, insect or the like, the stroke is canceled. The ball must be replaced and replayed. If the ball is not immediately recoverable, another ball may be substituted.

Kid is lucky his toy didn't get damaged worse than it was. I think the oldsters should have taken a Mulligan and gotten another go! Smile

Honestly, that didn't surprise me at all. Don't screw around on a golf course or a serious player will set you straight. I'm pretty sure the ranger would have taken that toy and smashed it right in front of them if he'd caught them, then had them charged with trespassing having not paid a greens fee to be out there.

It would have been worth the extra strokes on that hole for him to have whacked it a couple more times, but it sure looks like he made a "hole in one" regardless. Big Grin

Too bad it didn't happen on the tee box - Then they would have been using drivers, or woods. Not to take away from this - it was great. But it would have doubled the fun watching a nice Big Bertha put that little shit's little toy into the next fairway!

I like the toilet commentary on this video from David Spates. He has some good wisdom.

"Old people got old men strength."
"They don't care. They've got maybe 2-3 years to live."

Classic.
