Tim "T.C." Clarke 
T.C. has never been able to hit the big dog off the tee but, every now and again, 
fools himself into thinking that he can. This results in the purchase of an expensive
driver that lasts for two or three rounds before being replaced when he gets fed up of
playing every second shot from behind some old dustbins.
T.C. has a garage full of rusty drivers, driving irons and other items that were
impulse purchased, used for a short while and then jettisoned.
The most recent fashion accessory was a "Gentleman's Persuader" that,
amazingly, traveled fairly straight and for long enough distances.
As a result T.C. is usually on the fairway but hasn't hit a green in regulation in living memory.
T.C. may attempt to hit his new Ping G5 driver.
A Gritters Spokesman said "Obviously it is highly dangerous to allow these modern clubs
to be used by an untrained idiot and everyone should be on their guard.
We suggest that the safest place to stand in directly in the middle of the fairway".
T.C. always has a 40 pointer lurking somewhere but not
often enough to trouble the scorers.
Too many misguided efforts to hit a driver have in the past proved to be a major Achilles heel.
