Hey guys....just got home. All I can really say is.....

HOLY SHIT

I think a close second to the thrill of hitting a hole in one was seeing Nole. You would have thought he hit the ball himself. But that just speaks to the guy he is. And Skipper got his free beer...which speaks to the type of guy he is..... :toast:

To be honest, when I hit the ball and saw it tracking to the hole, I was yelling for it to get down. I felt like I nutted that 7 iron. Since it was cold and I had played that hole a couple of times already, I had a good idea of what to hit. When we heard the noise, it honestly sounded like it killed the pin. But I really thought once we got up there, I'd see it in a bunker. No way did I think it drilled straight in. Thought maybe I just hit the flagstick halfway up. As Nole and I drove up to the green, he just kept saying..."I don't see it yet...I don't see it yet." Once I got about 10 feet from the hole, I had a good idea it might be in since I saw that massive divot on the back lip. I let myself get excited at that moment.....then I looked in....and there it was. Unreal feeling, guys.

I've been playing golf since I was 5 years old. I've had a few close calls....but I've never even holed out a shot from more than like 50 yards before. So to do something like this, with this group of guys......a truly special moment.

Thanks for being there guys!!!

One funny thing....and this was my big WTF moment. I teed off on the next hole with the "hole in one ball." And I had actually hit the ball in the water hazard on that hole the day before. So I could have easily hit that ball into the abyss. What a bonehead move that would have been......I realized my error before I hit my 2nd shot....and promptly switched balls. :0074

Welcome to the club my friend! I just joined this year too! thats awesome you did it with everyone around. what sucks is the penalty for switching balls mid hole:nono:

I'll be expecting my beer with Dun and Law

Gary, Mark and I were on the Par 5 one hole behind them and we heard the boys start yelling from the Par 3. Very cool indeed.

I can vouch that Bart took care of the beer!

Thanks to Skipper for making the tee times and putting me and Teresa up for the night. Had a great weekend playing golf and watching the Tide whip up on the Viles.

I was just so glad that it was tied at halftime, because I could not get to my computer fast enough to lay another $250 on the 2nd half:mj07:

Covered my futures bet:facepalm:

Nice job. Now put the ball in your pocket and save it for someone that will appreciate it later on.

As I am sure you already know I too have never hit the proverbial hole in one however I have masturbated in a telephone booth in Greece once?!?!

You are awesome. Guys....Skipper is absolutely a riot to hang out with, the most competitive S.O.B. I know, and he's also fucking awesome. Can't wait to see my 1 sentence write-up in the Alcoa paper :0074

Am I still BC? :mj07:
