4.21 Smokey Bear is watching

It never quite worked as well for me as it did for the guy going about oh 6' 5" 235. You need swing speed. Eighty, 85 mph doesn’t really cut it, but it is a fun trick and I’ve seen it successfully performed by more than one long knocker. The thought is prompted by the story, maybe you saw it, about the fire started out in Reno by a golfer striking a rock in the rough. Oh, I believe it.

Missed it? Here’s the wire account:

You need a match book, the kind that used to be found in the bay of cigarette machines, or handed out at restaurants. You open it up so a ball will rest inside. Stand it up on the ground with the matches facing where the clubhead will strike. Take that metal big-headed driver and hit the heck out of it. You’ll see some fireworks. But, please, Only you can prevent golf course fires. -0-
