It is natural when we get attached to our collection of knick-knacks and things for sentimental reasons. My golf accessories are no less. I’ve come to love my set of doggy covers for my driver, woods, and utility clubs. Last Tuesday, I almost lost the doggy cover for my utility four. Man, I was frantic!
After the game, I headed towards the car and was loading up. That was when I realized number 4 was missing! Oh no, where did I drop it? Visibly upset, I sped off in the buggy to the last hole, Hole 9, thinking it may have fallen around that path as I was fussing with my things then. Alas, it was not there. Boo hoo hoo.
I headed to Hole 18 instead, and it was not there either. My mind was racing, and already thinking I may have to buy a replacement. Sadness engulfed me.
I drove the buggy back to the car park and saw a fellow golfer who offered some kind words to comfort me for my loss. I thanked him, but a lump on the road caught my eye! Could it be…?
So I drove past him, and lo and behold, was my beloved number four sprawled on the road! It must have fallen off the clubhead when I hit the road hump a tad too fast as I was heading towards the car. An eye popped out, and the fur was a little ruffled, but it was okay and safe. Phew.

Lesson learned – upon covering the clubs, remember to zip up the golf bag and never drive too fast on the road, as the road humps may cause something to fall off.
