Atta boy, @Golfspy_CG2!!!

Also very prudent, bagging it on a CTP hole (offsets the obligatory ace bar tab)!

Well for roughly 45 years, I've played this game, and heard lots of Hole In One stories, and have only witnessed 1 in all those years.
Today, I witnessed a second one....that came from MY CLUB!!
That's right my first ever Hole In One in our Thursday Morning League.   Here's the specs:
145 yards back pin
PING G410 6 hybrid (it was into the wind )
ProV1X  #12  CG2 stamped
200w.webp?cid=790b76115cf973534634454e49b31ada&rid=200w.webp
Looked good the entire way landed just over the ridge and fed toward the flag, the actual hole is hidden due to the ridge, but when we got up there and I didn't see it on the green, I thought..."oh man it ran off the back!!)  didn't see it anywhere in the fringe as i was walking to the green, so I took the obligatory look in the hole and there it was.    I honestly don't remember what I said or did, but one of my playing partners said, he wishes he had a camera for the expression on my face!    Pretty much shock and I didn't believe it.
In the picture you'll see a Closest to the pin marker on the hole, it was a good shot in of itself about 10 feet to the right of the pin, I'm sure someone will be upset.
So oh yeah, I mentioned two achievements.   So that was just one very good hole of a very good round.   I shot 39/43 for a personal best 82.   Funny thing, the hole in one was not on the nine with the 39.   Sadly that 43 was a result of two holes not being able to concentrate after the HIO,  Taking a triple and double in 2 of the next three holes.

Thanks guys, the beverage cart driver was around to witness and got out and said, "Fireball for everyone"  LOL
Fortunately I had a very tame group of playing partners and they opted for a couple Gatorade and a candy bar.   I actually did offer to buy drinks in the bar from 1:30 to 1:35

$25 pro shop credit.  Which will be used by the end of the month.   Also should get a tidy sum for low net.  

Yeah I'm that 20 handicap that shoots an 82 🤔

But since I play infrequently in this league since it's during work time.  You get a handicap after two rounds.  My first two rounds were 94 and 87.   

My actual MSGA index is 17.6.
