フェアウエイに落ちて転がるボールの音

リーダーズ+によれば、plap=plopで、
名詞なら「ドブン, ポチャン, ポトン, ポトッ, ストン, ストッ, ドテッ」、動詞なら「ドサッ、ドテッ, バタン, ドタン, ストンと落ちる」などとあります。
また、Langmaker Dictionary of Neologismsにも、オノマトペを語源とするplapの動詞定義として
To bounce slightly off a solid surface before coming to rest on it.
とありますから、ゴルフ場の固い面に何かが落ちて弾む音だとすれば、「フェアウェイに落ちて転がるボールの音」ではいかがでしょう。全く外している可能性もありますが。
