Somewhere in Texas ...

"I'm hit! Get off the path!"

Frank veered from the pavement. "How bad is it?"

Skip winced, "Shoulder hurts. Hey, watch out! Water! Jump!"

Both men landed hard. "You alright, buddy?"

"Hurts more. Did you hear that thud just before we bailed?"

"A second shot hit the cart. And we're still exposed here."

"OK, gotta move. Bunker, left of pond. One-two-three, Go!"

Seconds later, hugging the bunker sand, winded Frank speaks, "After that group takes their next shots, we'll fish our clubs from the pond."

"Fine. But no more golf on Ladies Day. Too dangerous."

Author Notes
I plead innocence on any reader's charge of sexism.
