Good story!
In the younger days I used to throw my clubs and say all sorts of bad things when I got mad at the game. I remember two clearly. On a tee box about halfway through my round and I had just hit a bad drive. Being young and losing my temper easy I slammed my driver head on the ground and said some colorful things and that was that.....until the next hole. Next hole I was on the box and since my club had a graphite shaft, i guess when I slammed it the hole before I had broken it or cracked it or whatever, I started into my backswing and off snapped the head of my club and went shooting backwards, and nearly taking out one of my playing partners. My dad and I were paired with a couple of golfers we didnt know and it was really embarrasing. The other is miss hitting a green side chip shot, and starting to walk towards the green to hit the next shot and getting mad. I threw my pitching wedge what was 'supposed to be' just 'over' by the cart and instead I wrapped it around one of those alumminum poles on the cart. Of course this snapped the iron right in two. Had a couple close calls with flying golf balls, but nothing serious yet.
