Since the Phoenix Open (congrats to Hunter Mahan) just finished I thought it appropriate to post this great “desert golf” image my pal Scott sent me. Scott is a golf pro down in Arizona. He knows all about the dangers of desert golf.
The poor guy in this picture was trying to hit a shot out of the desert and back into play. He lost his balance and fell into a cactus bush. It took three hours for them to remove all the cacti. I wonder what he scored on that hole…
this is one time this player should have declared the ball was unplyable. judjing from the picture I wonder how long it was before he could lie down.
