It was certainly rather scary at first since I saw the actual event, but after I got the cart off the sole of Jim's shoe I think he was mainly annoyed that his golf bag was soaked  ;D  It certainly could have been much worse.

In all fairness to the accused party so we don't think like of him.  I can personally vouch that.....

1)  He has absolutly zero alcohol in his system
2)  He was driving well within approved cart methods of operation

The slope on that cartpath was just a tough hombre to negotaite.  Its not only steep, but was also hard packed dirt underneath with small pebbles and dust on the surface.  It was almost like trying to drive a slope with snow on it. Earlier in the day Andy almost spun out in the same spot.

Kalen,
Key word being "almost"  ;D

The bad thing about that spot is that you're going along and the hill takes you by surprise, especially in terms of its steepness. If you're not expecting the drop then the gravel kicks in and its admittedly a tricky spot. Its one of those thing you'd only have a problem with the first time you see it--which of course doesn't help when something like that happens.

The “Melvyn” Anti Cart Weapon, only available for hire from Members of The Walking Golfers.com. Major improvements in accuracy are down to converted electronic Rangefinders technology. Your Tax Dollars at work for the health of the Nation. 

 Kalen, you were warned of the consequences – We will fight you on the Cart Paths, we will fight you on the dirt tracks, we will sink you on the pond or lakes. The next time it will not be a stun grenade but live ammunition.

Do not think what your country can do for you but what you can do for your country – give up carts. Like cigarettes each cart now comes with a full public health warning, desist from your filthy habit and Walk before it is too late.

This was a Public Health Notice on behalf of the Worlds Unfit Golfers Association (WUGA). Remember Carting can seriously damage your health; Beware of our Anti Cart Weapon - WE WILL BE BACK

I'm just glad to hear nobody got seriously injured.

Last Friday at Rancocas Country Club a 46 year old fellow died after falling out of a cart:

i heard one time a caddy died in CO after falling off a cart...he was hitching a ride by standing on the back of the cart and fell off...

"Take the gun. Leave the cannoli".

Ah, rats - it should've been:

"Take the gun. Leave the Calloways".

I apologize if you switched the line on purpose - but the correct quote is:
"Leave the gun, take the cannoli."
“The race is not always to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, but that's the way to bet.”  Damon Runyon

Thanks, Bill - man, am I ever embarrassed. I've only seen that movie like, what, 100 times. Of course Clemenza says "Leave the gun, take the cannoli"!  (The gun can't be traced, and he wants to eat the cannoli - who wouldn't?) In my defence, I think I was already planning my big "punchline", leave the Callaways.
