JIMMY (The Bull) Kennedy, of Helenton Gate, (these days a full time golfer, part time dairy farmer) was playing a round with some farming friends, last week.
Unusually, he seemed to be in a hurry and decided he had to get back home and cut short his round, spinning his buggy around to get back to the car park.
While flat out down the fairway, he forgot about a sunken bunker up ahead.
The story goes it launched four feet into the air and nosed dived into the sand with his face planted in the screen and clubs strewn in various directions.
His smirking pals agreed that if he wore less gold, he may have cleared the bunker and carried on his merry way.
