So let me set the scene...

I'm not what you would call a "good" golfer. Let's just say I have flashes of brilliance, followed by intermittent periods of "AHHH CRAP!!" Its what I do. Anyhoo, I play in this scramble every year and this year it was this past Saturday. I always like to at least have ONE hole. This year it was number 8. I played it rather nicely, and just happened to catch it on video. First check out this monster drive (that actually went straight). Did I mention it was straight into the wind and still managed about 260 yards? No? Yeah, so it was windy... Turn your speakers down, this blast might disturb the neighbors (no, not really... its hyperbole friend, look it up).



Needless to say we kept that shot. The green is down the fairway and to the left behind the trees. My shot put us behind the trees with a high 9-iron to the green. While I don't have video of my 2nd shot, I think this picture might say something... STUCK IT!! No I did not touch this ball, walked up and took the picture, then one of the putt. About 10 feet. Wish I had a camara crew to see that one go over the tree...





I missed the putt, but one of the other guys hit it for birdie. So, enough braggadocious-ness, cuz I was all over the course the rest of the day. Only contributed a couple more shots and my putting was terrible. But I had this... and this was pretty cool!
