Blind Shot

(Fox News) - A New Hampshire man who blinded himself while playing golf is suing the golf course, claiming the owners are to blame. The Albany Times Union reports 67-year-old Paul Sanchez was playing a round with friends in 2006 when a ball he hit bounced off a yardage marker and struck him in his right eye. His attorney, Barry Scotch, says "before he could even — pardon the expression — blink, he was hit. It just ricocheted right back at him."

The lawsuit says the course's owners should have warned him about the markers, which the lawsuit claims are made of a material too rigid to be safe. Like at many courses, the 150-yard marker was in the middle of the fairway. Adding insult to injury, the Web site for the Candia Woods Golf Links says it is "the friendliest course in New Hampshire."
