General rule of thumb: If something is sticking in you, don’t pull it out! It could be like removing the cork from an artery...

That's the reason Texas prisons don't serve bone-in pork chops anymore. One prisoner stabbed another in the chest with a bone. The guard said not to pull it out but the guy did and died within seconds.

Not on the surface level of your chest skin. No arteries there.

That’s why it’s a general rule. In this case we both woulda pulled it and finished the back 9.

So what do the rules of golf say? Does he have to play the shot over again when shot during taking a swing? Or does he just play out as long as the bullet is protruding and smoking?

If he is already smoking from the bullet, can he also have a cigar and smoke while playing?

Should the foursome behind play through, or duck?

From Decal:

Go to the range’s website to read their side of this - it won’t make pleasant reading for pro-2A types, but nobody who’s lived in SA since Chairman Julian got elected mayor will be much surprised (”Rifle Range Legal Action” under the Home link).

“He described how he could see the large bullet sticking out of his chest”

“there’s no doubt a stray .223-caliber round had to be removed from Flores’ sternum”

Yea, those .223 rounds are massive! I’m surprised he could still stand, due to the sheer weight of all that grainage in his chest.....
