How golfing disputes are settled in Texas: Man impaled by golf club - Polidicks

Clay Carpenter, 48, suffered massive blood loss and faces the possibility of a leg amputation, after spending nine days in the hospital. He was among a group at the Eagle Mountain Lake course who were apparently trying to pass the golfers in front of them, the Star-Telegram reported. "People get in arguments every day on every golf course in America," Carpenter told the paper. "But 99.9 percent of the time no one takes it this far." Cops are investigating the evidence in the case, including an 11-minute 911 call obtained by the paper, in which one of the golfers can be heard screaming at the dispatcher to get a helicopter ambulance because Carpenter was "bleeding profusely" and "he's about to die." It's still unclear who jammed the iron club into Carpenter's leg during the melee and who threw the first punch.[/Quote]

You must have one hell of a swing to impale someone with a golf club.

doubt he is getting a mulligan. /shitpunogod

it must be horrible being impaled by a blunt object, it's horrible getting impaled by anything

How do you play Golf too slowly?

How the fuck would you even stab someone with a gold club That'd be like stabbing someone with a hammer

[QUOTE=that guy;34598545]How the- [sp]Final Destination is now IRL.[/sp][/QUOTE] No. not in anyway at all. How the hell did this happen though? I'd swear that a golf club would bend well before fully going through someone.

I hope the other guy yelled "fore" before he was impaled.

A man chooses. [I]A slave obeys.[/I] It's obvious that the inflicter of the aforementioned wound is Andrew Ryan's one true disciple.

He probably broke the head off first, I've knocked the head off of a driver on accident more times than I care to share.

Looks like he hit a hole in one [img]http://g-ecx.images-amazon.com/images/G/01/askville/2668058_6325022_mywrite/baby_dance_smiley.gif[/img]

nice reading the article guys he was stabbed with a broken golf club edit: jk i guess it's only in the video

As a golfer myself I can relate how aggravating it is to wait behind slow people, but damn I don't go around impaling people over it

Golf is like the world's most boring sport.

I've heard of people shanking one in golfing but I didn't think they meant it literally.

[QUOTE=Nikota;34598469]How do you play Golf too slowly?[/QUOTE] As someone who has golfed, it's incredibly irritating when someone is pissing about and I've come close to impaling people with golf clubs as well as has every golfer I don't know why we play it, it ruins entire weeks

howdoesheimpalewithagolfclub post #400 i applaud the guy, that must have been one hell of a swing, or the guy who was hit was prettttty frail

[QUOTE=Pelican;34599936]howdoesheimpalewithagolfclub post #400 i applaud the guy, that must have been one hell of a swing, or the guy who was hit was prettttty frail[/QUOTE] I guess if you angle anything well enough and give the right amount of thrust you can stab someone with anything. If you used a really thick peice of paper and made it into a cone shape you could probably shank someone with it if you were also the Hulk.

And shortly afterwards, the man's wife was beaten to death with a golf trophy.

A sand-wedge can be heavy enough and has a very low angle so it's possible to break through the skin and lodge an inch or so into a person. The other possibility is that one of them broke the head off the club, and used the fiberglass shaft to impale him.

I wonder if it was hole in one hit.
