You are right - sometimes it can be an accident. My hubs and I were playing Hacienda (Palms) and the group ahead of us had to wait and had gone down to the edge of the water to get a better look at some eagles. We had seen their carts further up, then they disappeared so we wrongly assumed (yes, I know) that they were moving up to the green.

I had not been playing a driver much and tried out my husband's that day on a couple of longer holes. I hit that sucker over 200 yards (a feat I have yet to repeat). When we got around the hill and saw the guys ahead of us I nearly died! I apologized; they took it in stride.
