Two golfers reached the treacherous ninth hole which had a huge ravine just off the green.  One of them landed on the green, and the other watched his ball disappear into the canyon.  He decided to go down and play it where it lie.  Eventually the ball popped up to the green and the golfer climbed out.

“Not bad for three strokes!”

His partner said, “I heard at least six hits.”

“Three of them were echoes.”
