“Hole – In – One”

Today Brenda and I went golfing at Pineridge Golf Course. We received free 18 hole passes from the good folks at Wine Kitz the last time bottled wine and decided today was a good day to use them.

Our tee time was 10:15 a.m. and our round started out pretty average; Brenda was doing very well for only golfing once or twice per year and I was shooting a couple over par when we got to the 7th hole.

The 7th hole is a short par 3 (85 yds) so I took a Gap Wedge (53 deg) and put a great swing on the club and made great contact; the ball flew almost straight at the pin, it landed short, took one hop then spun slightly sideways and fell in the cup. It was so surreal to see it happen and then we “high fived” – “hooted and hollered” and did our own private celebration. It was great to have Brenda there to see it……….. we never ever imagined that this would happen when we were golfing together.

The pro shop at Pineridge Golf recorded the date, hole, club selection and gave me a nice hat pin that is a “#1”. See picture attached.

Wow, I’m impressed. Now, you will never be able to justify buying new clubs!
