Top Shots
May 26, 2008, 4th hole at Emerald Springs GC
In October 2007, I lost my swing. For the next couple of months I tried
working it out, but two months later I put my clubs away for an extended
period of time. In April I went to see a golf instructor, and on May 26
I played my first full round in five months. On the 4th hole, I found
myself 105 yards out in the middle of the fairway. I hit a picture perfect
pitching wedge. The ball took off into the air, dropped softly to the
green, took two small hops, and disappeared into the bottom of the hole
for my very first eagle.
August 2, 2009, 13th hole at Butterfield Trail
On the 13th hole, I hit a huge, straight drive. The wind was helping a
little off the tee, and the result was a 300 yard tee shot. I had a little
over 100 yards to the back pin placement with a left to right wind. I
hit my gap wedge and knew it was good when I hit it. The ball hit about
two feet left of the hole, bounced right, hit the pin, and fell into the
bottom of the hole.
