I'm sooooo excited - Aquarium Advice

BrianNY · 07-02-2005, 06:29 AM

Through more than 25 years of playing golf avidly, I've been patiently awaiting my first hole-in-one. I don't know how many rounds of golf I've played in my life but it must be in the thousands. I've watched with envy a mere handful of times as a few of my playing companions scored the elusive ace. Well yesterday was MY DAY.

I hit a 5 wood 220 yards into a slight cross wind and watched the ball as it took one bounce, roll to the pin, and disappear into the cup. My first reaction was disbelief. Then I started screaming and jumping up and down on the tee box. [acronym:9d93175492="Laughing out loud"]LOL[/acronym:9d93175492]

Wow! Congrats, Brian!

Lemme guess which club is now your favorite!!!

tracygh · 07-02-2005, 07:30 AM

You go Brian!! Hope you had LOTS of witnesses

Are you a memorabelia kind of guy? Your scorecard, the ball and a photo would make a nice collage in a shadowbox....

Way to go, and congrats again!

Wow...25 years and then bam! It happens. Congratulations Brian.

You know the tradition when you make a hole in one right? Drinks are on you!! How many members do we have now?

Congrats! I remember my first hole-in-one, of course it was on a Tiger Woods video game

.

Thanks a lot, now you got me thinking about going back to the driving range!

Congratulations, Brian!!

I know this is a huge deal, and it couldn't have happened to a nicer guy! You Da MAN!!!

In all the excitement you forgot to sign and date your score card making the entire thing invalid. OH [acronym:33d9a9748b="Normal Output Fluorescents"]NO[/acronym:33d9a9748b]!!!

hehe, time to hit the links again.

Thats great to hear. I am an awful golfer, I have a boomarang shot, but I know the odds are very low of that happening given the size of the hole and the distance the ball must go.

Wow, way to go Brian!!!
