Question:
The main road for entering of leaving Corpus Christi Naval Air Station splits the front and back nine of the golf course. I’ve been using that road for ten years and today, finally, my VW got nailed by an errant drive. It was a one-hopper that hit my front bumper–glad they’re made of plastic. I slowed down as I went past the tee and the guy was looking at me–so I yelled at him: "You’re hitting off your back foot!" I just drove away after that. I wonder if he swayed his way to a big slice on the next shot!

LOL. He probably spent the rest of the round looking over his shoulder expecting to see you and a lawyer heading in his direction. :) So far the only golf damage my vehicle has ever experienced was inflicted by yours truly. I was practicing chipping one day in the yard and darn if I didn’t shank one right into the left front door of my Explorer. Left a nice little golfball sized dent. — Neal B.

LOL!!! I’ll never forget my very first golf shot… I got talked into playing in a scramble with college friends. I don’t think I’d ever held a club in my hands until I stepped up and sliced one off the tee on #1 at the old Hermann Park course configuration in Houston. It took off thru the trees, bounced along the street missing dozens of cars, turned right at MacGregor Drive and somehow rolled under a couple of dozen more before it stopped between the zoo and the hospital. I didn’t know any better so I kept chasing it carrying that darn driver. I still catch grief for that shot 30 something years later. I still hate holes where there is traffic within range. — Bob Andrews

This incident is actually the second golf related damage to your vehicle. The first one was when you bought it, and sat your golfer ass in the seat. Nothing drives down vehicle resale values faster than golfers.

OK, you aren’t the only one that did this… My Sentra got it

Got you all beat.In jan 2000 bought my fav car ; BMW 328I (1997).perfect shape.in april that year played a late pm 9. had car parked in front of club house next to first tee.then later while I played parked near 18th green. at the end of my 9 with daylight fadding fast I opened the trunk ot notice right in middle of trunk lid a ball mark (pretty substantial) never figured out if it was hit from 1 or 18 ,(LOL). About 4 months later (late june) I had just had my grips replaced and was very excited about it. afriend called to play and was so full of joy I decided to hit a ball into woods behind my house with 9 iron.As I lined up the shot I played it left of a pretty big tree…(the best layed plans of mice and men?) sports fans ( and accumulated bashers) I swing I hit and scream oh nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo…The ball hit the tree took a big bounce and guess where it landed?Right in the middle of the hood .Its almost symmetrical with with the one on the trunk.So I have a BMW with 2 golf ball dings.pretty unique.
