Bob moving around, say, beginning to distract golfer (6)
I believe the answer is:
sledge
'bob moving' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see a link between them that I don't see?
'around say beginning to distract golfer' is the wordplay.
'around' says the letters should be written in reverse.
'say' becomes 'eg'.
'beginning to' says to take the initial letters.
'golfer' becomes 'els' (Ernie Els - former number one professional golfer).
The first letter of 'distract' is 'd'.
'eg'+'d'+'els'='egdels'
'egdels' backwards is 'SLEDGE'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sledge that I've seen before include "Put cricketer off" , "In the field, abuse" , "Snow vehicle or heavy hammer" , "Sleigh" , "Try rattling opposing players" .)
