The most unorthodox shot I've ever seen was Seve Ballesteros. His ball was in a bunker, against the back lip. In other words, he couldn't get a club on it, as he'd hit the lip of the bunker. So he took his putter (which was like the mini-putt style), turned it on end, and pounded it through the lip. His ball came out! No hitting sidewasys, no hitting backwards... what a move!

Personally, this was my inspiration when I found myself in a similar situation. Now, mine was a little different. I was in a bunker that was right beside the green (I had bladed my approach, and it ran through the green, through the bunker, and was sitting on the grass on the lip). The pin was 8 feet from the edge of the green (so I was short sided) and the green sloped away from me. So I couldn't get a chipping stance (it would have ran too far), I couldn't pitch it (I couldn't stand anywhere close to properly), so I grabbed my putter. Our traps are fairly hardpacked, so I just putted it hard, down the slope, through the bunker, it popped up off the other lip, flew through the air, and landed on the green, rolling 2 feet to stop 2 feet from the cup.

A new highlight: Golfing the home course on Christmas Day.

I say it too often: If it's golf club shaped, you can play with it.

For the record, I'm a club doctor, not a swing doctor.
