Thanks for the Memories

We all like to share stories, you know the near misses, the chips that dropped from 25, 50 and further....

Mostly these are shared on the 19th hole, Maybe you heard a story that was just so unbelievable it is now Urban myth.

So I'll start with one from my teenage years, playing in Mississauga. This was back in the 70's and I can't recall the name of the course.

Par 5 - drove down the right side of the fairway with about 150 yards to the pin.  Lost my ball didn't I.  I searched and searched without luck.  So I dropped a ball where everyone agreed I could, pulled out an iron (honestly don't even remember which one I used), hit it up.  One bounce on the green - hit the flag pole half way up and dropped straight in the hole!

Best part of this is that when I was putting my club back in my bag, I found the ball I thought I lost - only a few feet into the rough and a couple of yards ahead of where I hit the dropped ball.
