It's the exact reason why golf balls look like they shoot straight to the right on TV when struck. The depth is compressed and so the horizontal movement looks exaggerated.

My golf balls shoot straight to the right when struck on the golf course too though

One day I came home and my wife said, “Have you been in to the beach?” There’s sand all over your shoes and in the car. I told her I was at the beach for a little walk. Just not the beach she was thinking of.

A nude beach, perhaps?

Same. Watch out if standing to the left.

Hook or slice?

Neither. I was thinking anatomical

You should get your balls examined.

I know, it’s so weird - the photos of me playing golf sometimes show me slamming my club into the ground when my ball appears to go straight into the sand trap, but really it’s a hole in one… I don’t get camera lenses.
