I pulled my drive deep left on 16, a par 4, right next to the green of 17. I get up there and the group ahead of us is just starting to tee off. The first two guys fade right and short. The third guy gets up there and swings and as soon as he hits the ball he yells "crap" and throws his club down and turns his back to the hole and starts shaking his head. I lose track of the flight and hope it won't hit me...then I see it land 5 feet in front of the hole, take a gentle hop, then roll in without rattling the flagstick. His buddies saw the ball drop, but the guy who hit it was walking off the tee cursing himself for his 'bad shot'. Poor bastid!

I hit my drive on a Par 3, 124 yd hole in Sebring, FL last Satiurday, when one of my scramble partners starts yelling "it's going in!"......well it did not go in, but my divot was 2 feet directly in front of the pin and my ball came to rest 6 inches above the hole on the opposite side.

I saw a hole in one this past weekend, too. He almost made the same reaction. Not because he hit a bad shot, but because he knew he was going to get reamed after the round. Which of course he did. Gray goose with cranberry is really good, lol.

maybe he didn't want to make a hole in one off a shot that he didn't hit well...lol. to be honest, i wouldn't. i wouldn't want to buy anyone drinks and have the hole in one shot not even be solid!

    • Back in my Army days a "gooch" was a particular part of the anatomy. Example, say Okeechobee is the b-hole of Florida, then Belle Glade would be the gooch. Seems he wears his name well.
    • I can't say that I remember a lot of individual putts, but I do have one specific memory.  The first time I played the Old Course, I had hit a pretty good drive on the 6th hole.  I had about 60 yards left, and due to the swale in front of the green, there was no chance of flying a wedge on or near the green and having it stop on the green.  My caddie recommended either a running 7-iron chip or a putt, and I took the putter and a pretty hard swing.  The ball rolled over humps and through hollows, disappeared into the swale in front of the green, and re-appeared heading right at the hole.  I ended up maybe 12 feet away.  The caddie turned and held out his hand to shake mine, and said "Now THAT was a golf shot!"
    • For the first time since 2021, I made a 3 on the 12th at Stoneleigh.    395 yards, something like 80 feet uphill, I hit a solid drive and a 7-wood to inside a foot.  Even I couldn't miss that one.  I feel like I haven't played a lot of golf this year, but I'm making decent progress.
