Golfer Killed After Cart Plunges 75 Feet Off Cliff

Poor bastard.

FALLBROOK, Calif. (AP) - A 65-year-old golfer died Tuesday after his golf cart plunged 75 feet off a cliff and crashed into a road below, authorities said.

The man teed off with three friends on the second hole of the Pala Mesa Resort Golf Course in northern San Diego County at around 10 a.m. and then got into his cart.

The vehicle veered off the concrete pathway, traveled down a 25-foot embankment and went over the edge of a cliff, California Highway Patrol spokesman Tom Kerns said.

The recently retired real estate agent from Irvine was ejected shortly before the cart hit the road beneath the cliff and died on impact, Kerns said. His name was not immediately released.

No one else was involved in the crash.

Investigators will inspect the golf cart for mechanical failures, Kerns said.

Dude didn't think of bailing out before the cliff? Wow.

I imagine at 65 years old there's not much bailing from anything...

Add it to the routine, dude. It's a keeper.

Rain Man 05-22-2007 10:03 PM

So his final drive on a golf course was only 75 feet. How sad.

tk13 05-22-2007 10:05 PM

Looks like he took a drop.

Phobia 05-22-2007 10:09 PM

Maybe he suffered a stroke.

Nzoner 05-22-2007 10:12 PM

It's definitely one way to try and get a birdie

TinyEvel 05-22-2007 10:15 PM

LMAO rep to all you fools with the pun replies. :clap:

Thig Lyfe 05-22-2007 10:16 PM

I'll bet his friends had just told him they wouldn't be doing mulligans this round.

Hammock Parties 05-22-2007 10:17 PM

Way to avoid the sandtrap!

TinyEvel 05-22-2007 10:17 PM

I think he was depressed about us trading you-know-who.

Rain Man 05-22-2007 10:20 PM

He had a bad slice in his drive.

He was probably outraged because one of his golf partners accused him of living in "Cali".

C-Mac 05-22-2007 10:25 PM

Speed golfing cover up?

Phobia 05-22-2007 10:26 PM

I'm always thrilled when somebody dies at 65. One more chance that Social Security will survive until I retire.

That's why we need to expand the Free Cigarettes for Seniors program.

Haha, I thought about posting that too.

He had enough of hearing that word and veered his cart right to the edge and off the cliff LMAO


I do feel for the old guy, he must have been having a heat attack. Apparantly he would have needed to pop it over a curb then go through 25 feet of brush before he hit the dropoff.

Phobia 05-22-2007 10:44 PM

That's one serious case of the yips, though.

unothadeal 05-22-2007 10:45 PM

What sucks even more is he lost 50 bucks on the game.

Phobia 05-22-2007 10:46 PM

He landed on the road? That's a horrible lie.

Phobia 05-22-2007 10:48 PM

This thread is Taylor Made for golf puns.

unothadeal 05-22-2007 10:48 PM

It's a good thing his wife has a shoulder to cry on -- the guy she was sleeping with.

One of these things is not like the others.

I don't want to start any blasphemous rumours, but I think that God's got a sick sense of humor...

Oh, and to add to the golf puns:

He should've got a ruiling before he drove off.

unothadeal 05-22-2007 10:55 PM

Too bad he didn't fall into a manhole. That would have been the ultimate irony.

mikey23545 05-23-2007 03:03 AM

I've heard of taking a drop, but that's ridiculous....

chagrin 05-23-2007 05:29 AM

that's why old people shouldn't drive

Dartgod 05-23-2007 06:41 AM

Great. In a couple of years the guberment will be mandating seat belt usage in golf carts.

Archie F. Swin 05-23-2007 07:42 AM

What is your round score if you die in the middle?

I'm just guessing here, but I doubt it was being ejected from the cart that killed him.

Wow, I am sure his family would find all of these lame jokes funny. :rolleyes:

If they post on ChiefsPlanet I'll be the first one to edit my comments. Unless they actually post here, then there's really no reason to worry about it.

kepp 05-23-2007 11:57 AM

I wonder if he replaced his divot.

Talk about adding insult to injury... I understand the rule about keeping your cart on the cart path... but to ask him to leave the course over it is a bit much.






Ok,, that one was stretch
