More Pebble Beach:
Our foursome was made up of my wife and I, a preacher from
Texas, and his lawyer son. That preacher was so excited that he was running
around like a kid in a candy factory. Of course, we all lost balls, but that
was to be expected, and we’d only make a courtesy search out of respect for
what the ball had sacrificed. I sliced one far to the right and knew it was a
goner. But the preacher went charging past me to look for it. I grabbed him in
mid-stride and pulled him back. “Preacher,” I said, “if you take two more
steps, you will be called back to the home office.” It took him a second or two
to get my meaning, and then he looked past that little fringe of brush to see a
hundred or so foot drop.
It wasn't that I wanted to be a hero, but that lawyer son of
his would have surely found a way to make me responsible, since I hadn't made
him sign a waiver and the golf course had.
