Sandy and Paddy were playing a par 4, dogleg left, when Paddy sliced his
drive
badly into thick forest which covered a steep ravine some 50 feet deep.
As
there was no out-of-bounds, Paddy elected to look for his ball and took
an 8
iron down into the gully. After about 10 minutes of hunting in the
undergrowth,
he found his ball and just as he was about to play it the sunlight
peaked
through the trees and reflected on something nearby. On, looking
further, Paddy
was aghast to find a skeleton lying in the bush holding an 8 iron.
Although
visibly shaken, Paddy, without hesitation, called up this partner - "Hey
Sandy
throw me down a wedge, you can't get out of here with an 8 iron!"
