Another poster asked me to list them.  Nobody's forcing you to read that thread.
Yeah, I know. I was just horsing around a little bit.

it's a little bit tongue in cheek although whenever women are around there's more chance of getting myself in trouble

Well sure but that's true for you in every situation, not just whilst playing golf. :)

My Dad never trusted golf once he worked his way up to foreman at a chemical processing plant when we lived near Houston. He always had one or two employees limited or out of work due to documented "back conditions." They would wince up the steps, take longer smoke breaks, and avoid the heavy machinery because of their bad backs. Then come Saturday my Dad would notice for that one day a week they were perfectly fine. "Must be something about hole 9 radiating healing powers." Grinning, open cans of beer in the cupholders of their golf carts, driving golf balls hundreds of yards behind the full strength of their "bad backs."

I have a bad back.  When it's out of place and I need to see the bone cruncher, I can't hardly put a tee in the ground, pick up my golf ball or get in and out of the cart, but I can swing OK.

Single plane swing not as hard on the back.

I was thinking "most unusual" but I like how you divided the craziness into sub-categories.

Driving through the greater Los Angeles area over the weekend, and stopped in San Bernardino to step foot inside First Original McDonald's Museum. It's not the first McDonald's location, but rather a museum to explore earliest McDonalds locations which were started in the Inland Empire, although a Des Plaines Illinois location also claims to be the first McDonalds.

The museum can be categorized according to two different kinds of exhibits featuring either displays of McDonald's from around the world - Finland, Brazil, Canada, Vietnam - or displays of Happy Meals dating well back through my childhood - Power Rangers, Rescue Rangers, Super Mario, Garfield.
