I was playing in a tournament in college. On the second nine, a double dogleg par 5 played along the edge of the practice range.
My ball was just off the fairway at the first turn. Some big strong lefty was hitting on the range and blocked one left. I'm standing waiting for the next threesome to hit the third shots when I hear "thump" then bang! The ball hit the ground maybe 20 feet from me and whacked me on the left cheekbone on the first bounce.
No cut, but it hurt like heck.
This was the 11th hole. By the time I was putting on 13, I was playing with one eye because the thing swelled up enough to shut the eye.
I was ok a couple days later.
So, I know the feeling.
