Default Scary story about landing on a Lake Tahoe golf course

Good part was it was late in the day and there were no golfers on this hole:

Looking at it on Google, the course features short, narrow fairways. Scary for

landing leads to a really inconvenient retrieve, it usually just makes things wet,
not bent.
