Not Weald of Kent was it as I heard almost the same story .
Difference is he never came back after lobbing the lot in the lake



I used to play regular as my boss from work wanted to take up the game so I skived with pay 3 times a week .He became rather good even better than me after a few lessons to correct his swing .
I got invited to a lot of company golf days , pukka courses , good food after and a good drink .
Then the boss and his mates who owned firms went on a beano to Spain I went as well , 36 holes every day it was fun and enjoyable .
Trouble was I fished and has some expensive tickets and the wife commented on how much dosh I was getting through .
She said golf or fishing you can't do both .

Needless to say what got binned 🫢

Still Stood on the 18th holding the flag

As a 8 year old kid my publican parents got the dream job to run a clubhouse of at the time very exclusive golf club. Was around the time Faldo one a major so guessing mid to late 80s. Any way I was having lessons 3 time a week with the golf pro, probably in hindsight I should have followed it though but on the same course was a fishing lake. The golf club was around in the 1700s and the lake had been there since day one. Dont really know where I'm going with this story but I'm guessing the fact I'm posting on carp forum and not a 3 times major winner probably reels you which past time I prefer
