We're on the 15th hole at Mistwood -- it's a huge dog leg left and if you have the distance with a driver you can eliminate the dog leg and play over the water and turn a monster par 5 into a relatively easy birdie opportunity.

We all shoot over the water -- but when you do that, you have to contend with three huge sandtraps. We all had a ball in play and we head off for our second shots. We were all smoking Padrons and one of the twins (the one that was driving the cart) was going on and on about how good of a cigar it was. So we get to the general area where the balls are when the twins realize that they shot past one of their balls and have to circle back -- the driver turns the cart around to head back -- he goes up a hill and completely forgets the sandtrap on the other side because he is so enthralled with the smoke... He was inches away from missing the trap altogether, but the right front wheel caught the lip of the trap -- from the peak of the hill to the bottom of the trap was a good 10 feet. My brother and I both tried to yell out a second before it all went south, but there wasn't time for them to react. The cart started to tip, and just about the point that it was going to tumble, the passenger dropped straight down, feet first and was able to roll clear of the falling cart. The driver wasn't so lucky -- he satyed in the cart, banged his elbow pretty badly, but all things considered, was in decent shape.

The cart landed flush on its side and was a mess -- the bench seat popped off, they broke the bead on one of the tires and had a flat, the roof was slightly tilted and there was sand everywhere. The guys on the tee behind us saw the whole thing and came rushing out to help -- we got the cart out, did some patchwork on the trap and called the club house for a new cart. Just as we get everything back in order, the driving twin steps back into the trap and picks up his Padron -- dusts of a little sand and takes a long draw and says "damn, that is good." The passenger twin wasn't amused...

I truly regret not stopping and snapping a few pics with the camera phone -- we were too concerned with their well-being, and once we realized they were relatively unscathed, our focus shifted to repairing the trap and making the cart look as presentable as possible -- we were pretty confident we were in the clear and the course wasn't going to notice anything other than the flat tire. We finish the round and head for the bar -- only to be greeted by the bartender with a an enthusuastic "what the hell happened to you guys on 15?" The ass-hats on the tee behind us played thru and blabbed when they got back to the clubhouse.
although its not you that story rocked... i hoep to see some more good ones!
