Take A Swing At Gordoom
The World of Golf in New Malden has come up with a fantastic way of helping golfers to improve their aim: it has set up a target of the the one-eyed snot-gobbling Prime Mentalist on their driving range.
Originally seen on the Standard’s website, apparently day-on-day golf ball usage is now up by 20% since they put it up as target practice.
There’s also a target of Alistair “Badger Eyebrows” Darling on the driving range too although TheEye, who has swung a club or two in the past, knows which target the first wave of his 9-iron would be directed towards.
Might even just walk up to the target and smash it with a sand wedge in pure fury anyway…skip the effort of trying to hit it with a ball (although TheEye would back his chances from a distance on one of his rare sober-ish days).
McBroon dart boards would sell like hotcakes. Or we could have clay Gorgon shooting.
Looks excellent fun this although I expect that Lord Manmuncher will be at the front of the queue trying to lob a ball or two at Gordon’s face. No change there then.
Not a golfer myslef ( though I have spent a few atavistic hours on various golf ranges ). Give me a shout when the whole Politbureu is available for practise or competition.
Gordon Brown 100 points, Jacqui Porn 85 points, Ruth Kelly 25, that sort of thing.
