Inches matter, especially when you are playing golf and unfortunately for Mike Ferik, he learned the hard way.

During a Memorial Day weekend golf outing with friends, Ferik was on the 15th hole when his ball landed inches away from the pond. Believing he could get the ball back in play, he attempted a shot from the precarious location, lost balance and found himself under water. Good thing he had a great sense of humor as his companions were of no help to him.
The lesson to be learned from Mr. Ferik: When your ball is too close to the edge, pull back some or you could end up all wet. But, you have a 50/50 chance at being happy about it.
