My First - Myrtle Beach
By JOHN P On 23 February 2014
A perfect February Saturday morning in Myrtle Beach, SC clear blue skies, light wind and about 55 degrees, just the weather we expected. The 6th hole yardage is 135 to the middle of the green but today the pin was up 9.5 yards. Considering a light wind at my back I chose my pitching wedge and hit it on the nose and we all watched as the ball landed in front of the pin and gently rolled a few feet until the ball disappeared. "Did that go in?" someone asked, and when we got to the green sure enough it had. Well my opponent made his birdie putt and lost the hole. All the players in the group signed the ball and it will soon be mounted with the scorecard. The best part of the story is that my son had given me a box Titleist Pro V 1 golf balls for Christmas and it was one of the balls that I used for the hole in 1. Priceless
