After filming was completed, he bulldozed the sets into the Guadalupe Sand Dunes of the central California coast. Hi reasons for doing so were very mysterious. This story gives an explanation as to why he did it. There was actually a legitimate Egyptian artifact amongst the props but they didn’t know which one was trapping the spirit of an Egyptian avenging god. Mysterious murders and accidents while making the film brings things back to the surface today and it starts all over again.

I hit a rock in the bunker—what action to take???
While golfing this evening I landed in the center of bunker when I went to hit it out I drove my wedge straight into a huge rock that was buried in the sand directly below my ball. No kidding, the rock was a good 4×4x8" It killed my hands and shot my ball into oblivion but what I’m most ticked about is that it put a ding right on the blade of the wedge (brand new this winter). I took the rock and club to the guy at the counter and he said the course director would call me tomorrow. What I want to know is what do I demand for reimbursement as well as what legal grounds do I have to support those demands. The ding isn’t terribly bad, but from my point of view that is complete irresponsibility on behalf of the course and they at least owe me the value of my club $100.
Like any of you wouldn’t be ticked if you gauged your brand new club on a freaking rock that big …seriously when was the last time you saw any rock let alone on the size of a 20oz bottle in a sandtrap? Its not like I was hitting out of the woods or off a cart path or something.
It’s likely that the course has it posted that they are not responsible for equipment damages or injuries sustained on their property. I do find it a bit odd that you discovered a rock of that size in the bunker - with the number of teenagers playing now, many of whom will do crap like that to be funny (even though it isn’t) - I join with another answerer in wondering if someone planted it there.
You’ll be lucky to get a free round out of the deal - but you have no legal case against the course. Sorry.

You will be at the discretion of the course director. No legal ruling will be made. Tact might be your best friend.
I understand your concern but that’s just one of the hazards(no pun intended) of the game. We’ve all damaged clubs. We’ve all skyed a tee ball with our new driver and marked the top of the club. Sh!t happens and you move on.

Suck it up and quit your whining.
It is a hazard of the course.
You should apologize for being anass
Edit: It is no worse than hitting a hidden root, stepping in a deep puddle.
You are hacked because you blew the shot and are willing to blame the course rather than yourself. By not being aware of your environment, you blew out your club.
tuffnuggies get over it

Sorry Charlie!! You have no case !! One plays the course as he finds it. If there are hidden boulders in the bunkers and you hit one( I have ) that is called the " Rub of the green". One can hit a boulder or rock anywhere here in New England. Get a file and take out the ding.

you are going to have to take this one on the chin. Sorry about your wedge. You can probably grind and buff out the gouge. The course management isn’t obliged, but may offer something if you are a good customer/member. I have played some municipal courses where the sand in the bunkers was more like asphalt than sand. Those are the breaks.

Man……what a tough crowd. I sympathize with you. A rock that big hidden under the sand in a bunker??? Makes me wonder if some asswipe planted it there to be "funny" and raked the sand over the top of it.

Dont expect much. If it happened at my course, I might throw you a free round, but thats about it. It would be your tough luck more than anything. I know thats not the answer you’re looking for but…..

Not much you can do, you play at your own risk and rocks in bunkers (regardless of size) are common. I would however suggest that perhaps you patronize a different course.

sadistic mind please help me with this just any old advice will do please please please?
i I’am unknow, why unknown you ask, well simply because nobody knows me in real or virtual life.
i have a damaged mind, and i dont know what to do. if you dont mind me detailing you on a phew things firs then maybe just maybe you have some good advice for me, so here it goes…
i’m 21 m 6"1 fairly -was- fit, need to get back into the gym, aint trained in about 4-5 months.
okay so, every so often I feel a buzz about killing another individual, Just as a thought a little tinkle. its like when I get depressed and want to kill my self the temptation is their but the temptation not to do it is just as strong they are both fairly equal.
i have a bad anger problem and get jealous and upset quite quickly, i like to smash things up.
I think I feel love and care for others but the only time i miss my family or friends is only when i need them for something.
I am a bit lazy and laid back not rushing to do anything nomatter what the urgency.
i have hurt animals in the past, for no reason just an uncontroled quiver, and i would hurt a dog or cat or another animal if their is one close when i get like that.
i dont own pets i wouldn’t i couldn’t for their sake. most of the time i’m good and happy, and things like this seem like a dream state a fantasy in my head.
i dont have friends, i was in the army for 5 yrs and left due to depression. i live in my own head.
when i was a child in class i would draw vamires knives blood and bats all black. i got told off, and had to go through the motions of drawing sunny skies etc, my dad left when i was very young my mam remarried and both became abusive towards me.
if she never gave birth to my lovely sister, i would be very upset but i would love to just beat my mother to a pulp a serious pulp yes i would be angry with myself feel guilty and cry but the thought of that pleasure makes my heart race makes me sad but excited.
i dont think i have killed anybody because i dont want to hurt my dad or i just dont want to be put in a cell at a young age… i aint a gambling man, i need to know the odds are sky high for me to get away with such a act, the same with stealing, if i know i can and could get away with it i would,
but i have rules if i dont need to do these things then dont, and i dont, as great as the temptation is to steal if i dont need it or can survive then their is no point. i also
believe in karma maybe thats why i dont do bad things like that (to humans)
dont get me wrong i dont go looking to hurt an animal or out like that, i dont feel anything if i do, but if it is their and i start to tingle i would.
the sight of fear or intimidation makes me angry i hate it, especialy if i show it, so i lose my temper to overcompisate.
i know this is long and i may not get many a reply but i need to just see what peoples opinions are i need to find exactly what i am.
i was saying i live in my head and yes i do, i have always had a fasination with vampires, i even bit through my own hand once to try and suck my blood.
i dream about them every night me being a young sibling living with a big family of brothers and sisters all demons and vampires, and me sometimes being a young boy, and others me being a predator or god like person.
i day dream constantly like this to, thinking about torture etc. thinking of what powerful monster i "could" become, i dont know if this is just fantasy or if one day i’am going to be given the chance to kill on a plater with no concequences.
some times i feel realy depressed and have feelings (no matter how small) for the loved ones and other times i dont feel anything, i go num and in this state is a good chance for me to right this crap down otherwise i wont.
i’m also sort of bisexual, i fight alot aswel. or used to fight alot.
i had to train myself to live in a social world and even then i can only be in the company of say 2 people otherwise i hate it, even walking in the town with hundreds of people makes me barking mad and can only stay their for a couple of hours befor i just want to attack some one.
you see i always get these urges to attack and hurt some 1 and they are so strong, but i never do it i just seem to regain control.
i am sorry for this i just need to have a third parties advice i have seen councilors etc, but am careful to what i say.
i like to manipulate and make things up lies etc, i just live in a fantasy world, if you met me you would actualy think im a well adjusted individual with everything going for him etc.
please help.
Well, you’ve already murdered the English language.

If you believe in Karma then you would know that ALL actions lead to an equal reaction against yourself, hurt a dog or cat and you will be hurt in return.
I suppose the best 3 things to do would be,
1) Go to Church (its not often I suggest it, but faith is a very good tether to keep someone calm, also Church’s usually have good people attending, which could rub off on you 
2) Stop hurting anything
3) When you get really angry, stop look up and watch the sky for a while, and just watch, trust me Chris | Dec 22, 2009
Luke 4:33-36 33In the synagogue there was a man possessed by a demon, an evil[g]spirit. He cried out at the top of his voice, 34"Ha! What do you want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are
