Saturday morning 2/26/22 #4 Madera Golf & Country Club 201 yards front right pin position into a slight breeze 4 iron starts 2 yards left of flag and starts falling right. As the ball continues to fall towards the hole I say "Oh just go in", I had just text my wife on the 3rd hole that this was going to be a laugh at myself round. I just started a series of lessons and the first round with a grip change and the golf club feels like a complete foreign object in my hand. Ended up being one of my worst rounds in 5 years. But back to the above, ball is still tracking and as it continues to fall this thing has a REAL chance of getting close. Balls hits the ground 6" right of the hole takes a bounce. And guess what that thing did....giphy.gif

THAT MUTHA WENT IN!!!!!! I AM NO LONGER ACELESS!!!! (I still mourn for of all of you on this thread).

 

Side Note: My son for about 10 years straight once he figured out that I had never had a hole in one would ask me after every round, and I mean every round if I made one. He is 16 now so he stopped asking after every round but he still asks every once in a while. So as I am driving up to the green I face time him and walk to the hole to get the ball out with him on. It was a pretty cool moment. However with all the excitement and the call I took ZERO pictures 🤣. Hence the quoted photo of the same hole and almost the same exact shot except this one WENT IN!!!!

Congrats. BTW Golf social media etiquette says that you owe us a beer! 🤣

As often as I play solo in MT, I fear my first will be like the "if a tree falls alone in the woods, does it make a sound" parable... so I'm really hoping it happens at a PNW Spy Meet-up 👍.

Oh, and lest I forget, @Tom the Golf Nut, this years close encounters contest, best I can determine, currently stands in my favor (2-0) 😆.

Only because I haven't started playing yet! 

Speaking of a tree falling in the woods! I didn't hear the sound but I spent part of the evening cleaning up a tree that fell during the last storm. Just noticed it today when walking the property.

Well, well, well guess who got to play their first round of the season today. You might want to adjust your stats a little.   2 to 1

Ok, I'll admit it wasn't pretty. 164 yard 6 iron that barely got more than 20 feet off the ground. Landed short bounced more than a few times and rolled up on the green.  So no ball mark. There might have been some worm casualties along the way. But, close is close.

LOL.  Some of our best shots are often not the prettiest.  Last season, at Yuma CC, I gutted my second shot into a par 4 that went over the green, heading for OB (townhomes yards), but caught the cart curb (we think) and suddenly reappeared back over the hill, rolling to a few inches from the cup.  Glad to see you on the scoreboard and have eliminated the possibility of a skunk... no doubt that was on your mind 😆.

You know it. Every par three I said to myself. I'll show him! ( meaning you ) I don't know what I was thinking for my first round in two months. Like I was going to be thowing darts or sometning.🤣

I was watching the LPGA last night, and one of the ladies birdied all 4 par 3's. That's throwing darts. 

I still haven't gotten my first round in for the year... Getting anxious

Another entry from hole #16 at Las Barancas.  We played the quartz tees as the wind was mild (~6 mph) and it was playing 172 yards (into the wind) to the front flag position.  I hit my 5i flush and it never left the target line... immediately switching my pleas from turn to get there 😬🙏.

When it landed and started rolling towards the cup I thought "this is it... it's gonna happen... I'm out of that damn thread"!

Nope.  I'll just revel in being up 3 on @Tom the Golf Nut😆

The calendar was clear this morning. So why not try to get the score closer with @fixyurdivot. Overcast and windy. No, really windy!  Trying to take advantage of the wind at my back with a slight cross wind, I decided to do something stupid. Ok, maybe not a smart play decision. The 13th hole is a par four 315 yard slight dog leg left. You can't see the green from the tee and there are very tall pine trees on the left. Normally a 3 wood to the right side of the fairway will put you in good position.

I took out the driver and aimed at the right edge of the trees. Dropped my right shoulder down a bit to increase my angle of attack and swung with reckless abandon. Looked good to me. I executed well, missed the trees and the slight quartering wind was taking the ball in the direction I wanted. I get to the green and almost cried. What a way to get out of this torturous thread. Holeing a par 4. I felt @Yellow Ball looking at me and saying " nice try, but you missed it by thaaat muuuch"

Tap in Eagle. 

 

That was a phenomenal shot, Tom! Just a little bit more and that would be a crazy good way to graduate from this thread. That's a heckuva drive, it's almost like the G400 is trying to stay in the bag. Great eagle!

Thanks.

The G400 has been great since I got it. The Titleist will have to really impress me when it gets here. It did during my demo with it. Hopefully it behaves.

You should copy and save the above statement to save time 🤣.  I missed two of the par 3 greens today and that never helps the cause.

I get 5 tries.  I can generally hit 2 or 3 but Yes, I can miss all 5.  But all it takes is that one shot that you really aren't thinking about.
