No i think it's a it's a lifetime of no it's not a lifetime it's a year of bad bounces yeah [Music] new feature you ready golf confessions that's a terrible drum roll. So basically for a clip though basically yeah. And people can write in emailing i don't know if they're writing we don't accept post. But they could email in oh no i've lost the email one sec i've got it here right they can email in their confessions right rick. So whereas with dear rick at the end of the email you give advice if with this you feel like there's any needed then.

Feel free but it's not really about that it's more about somebody getting a confession off the chest can you say that when you get things off your chest you feel better okay. And he wants to do it he. Or she wants to do it live on a podcast yes. But also i thought a little bit of fun to it you can have the option at the end to forgive them. Or not so firstly the good thing is if you email in your golf confession you're going to feel a little bit better to start with because you've got off your chest if rick then.

Says you are forgiven the golfing god himself then.

You can feel you could you can die in peace wow if he says that he can't forgive you then.

You're going to get bad breaks you're gonna get bad bounces on the golf course you're gonna lip out more often yeah than not if you're forgiven it's gonna go the other way you're gonna you're gonna lip him more you're gonna find your ball when you're not expecting to you're just in a much better place exactly. And ideally we'd like a variety of different ones so if you've got a story about this so this week it says these are all anonymous yeah well yeah this one's definitely anonymous. But he does say his friend listens to the podcast. So it's definitely anonymous it says i've come and actually this guy so the first person has given us the whole idea of this this whole feature so um thank you very much you'll know who you are i've come seeking forgiveness. And hope the golfing community don't give me too much hate wow since lockdown i've taken up golf alongside a mate and we've been playing much playing match play rounds ever since we have rough handicap she's an app and agree to him having nine shots per round the weekend just gone with two holes to play everything was all square. And i made a comment that inadvertently could have been seen as mind games by saying to him you've got a shot on this hole and not on the next.

So you'll probably go to the last hole one up so he's saying almost like you're going to win this hole you got a shot he then.

Said actually the mind games have started go careful with the uh be careful with the outer bounds on the right. So having a bit of banter all right he said this knowing that this is where my drive more often than not goes. And sure enough that's what i did okay okay i might locate my golf ball that foot on the wrong side of out of bounds however. i chipped it out. And told him that it was in play oh my god although we didn't question it if it actually found it. And he couldn't prove it was it obviously was his balls was oh no look it's my ball etcetera now i'm fully aware this isn't within the rules however. he went on to win the hole anyway. And when's the last hole one up we're quite generous with each other as high handicappers on the next.

Hole he should have been three off the tee but i gave him a mulligan and he let me carry on went out of bounds again on the next.

Hole as well we have and he won the match we both was hitting our best ever scored on the golf course. So we're both left happy with our day's golf butts and there's the butt i felt the need to confess about what i did. And to avoid the karma from the golfing gods is this an unforgivable act every chance he may listen to this. So i'm really sorry mate cheers that's god this is um wow lots lots of. So you can forgive. Or not i think i need to have a word what the opposite to forgive could be is it um i was gonna say forget that's kind of the same sin. Or kind of but i don't know yeah i'm not sure. But anyway we'll work on that but anyway so i think i mean lots of unpack the good mates seems like they have a lot of matches together yeah played high handicappers not been playing super long it seems like they've got a relationship where it showed on the 18th hole when he weirdly let his mate take another shot was that because he already felt bad though correct. But then.

He also said he's mate then.

Also let him hit a shot out of bounds yeah it's weird. So it seems to me like they've got a relationship where they are quite relaxed with the rules which i like i don't mind that if you the two of you together. And quite relaxed with the rules and you might say oh don't worry mate i know it landed somewhere here just drop one down and just carry on playing if that was that was how they want to play golf as long as it's not a big competition. And not swindling anyone else out of any prizes or whatever it may be so i find that okay the bit i don't find okay is the fat that didn't happen on this occasion on the 17th hill his golf ball went out of bounds he know it did one foot out of bounds. And it's the most annoying thing in the world when your golf ball only goes just out of bounds it is it's horrendous. But it went out of bounds and there was no communication with his playing pants say hey john my ball's gone out of bounds here pal what should i do. And his mate might have gone i'll just play it don't worry you know yeah he might have said that. And that's that's fair if that's how they want to play but that's not what happened yes he lost a hole good yes he did he lose the match yes good you deserve that um. So the out we're going to call it forgive. Or convict oh nice um for your single act on the 17th hole when you knowingly your ball went out of bounds unfortunately you are gonna have to live with a life of bad bounces. And lip outs yeah convict you yeah to a lifetime of golf god misery well i'm gonna also i'm also going to jump in on this because i want to convict him as well. But i'm going to give him six months of the shanks. So that should teach you if you can you can go lifetime does this feel like just before because it's new we're just fanning our feet is it a lifetime no no i think it's a it's a lifetime of no it's not a lifetime it's a year of bad bounces yeah i like that. So every time he's playing party and and on the flip side his mate gets a year of good bounces yeah on the 9th of november 2022 his conviction will be spent if that's the right phrase yup served yeah [Music].
