there is no video to show. on a side note, i like golfing. love the birdies and eagles, but hate the pars and bogeys...especially if youre not focused. yesterday i got 10 under while an inexperienced player i teamed up with got 40 over par :oops: too many times water hazard, unplayable lies and bunker shots :shock:

1) Ice was dangerously thin
2) He missed
3) he didn't use a proper stance for swinging on a slippery surface ;)

Result: predictable. Gravity is a bitch.

He should have been playing disc golf instead - it's much easier to stay upright when on ice. 8-)

It's not that you shouldn't be playing golf on ice, you shouldn't be playing golf on THIN ice.
