Title: Bunker's Amazing World Of Golf !
Post by: stayouttadabunker on August 13, 2010, 01:32:05 PM
16th hole last night and 7 others standing around watching me hit a driver off the tee.
276 yards - Par 4.

I teed up and whammo!
Smacked the heck out of it!
That puppy went flying!
 :251-
As it came down, it hit the ground hard and bounced right up onto the green!
It rolled about 20 feet and turned slightly to the left
and came to a stop about 2 feet from the hole!

I thought my heart was gonna stop!!!
That's how close I came to an Albatross!
Otherwise known as a "Double-Eagle"
or was was it a Double Blazing 7's?  :72-

Way to go Bunker  :244-  :3-   :131-              Best I've donr this summer is a foot from the pin on a par 3    :60-  I'm playing 36 today in a family golf outing at Hickory Ridge. Most I ever did at Myrtle was 40 holes in a day and sat in the hot tub for a long time.

Ahhh a cuban.. Been out of those for a while.. Nothing like a good stogey and a round of golf good or bad...lol  :89-

Saturday was a balmy 56 degrees at it's warmest point around 2PM in the afternoon.
No wind to speak of, I blasted the ball down the middle of the 6th fairway. :251-
As I was strolling down the fairway with my hand pullcart & clubs,
(they put away the gas/electric golf carts on NOV>1st !  :30- :30-)

I noticed how beautifully fresh the air was.
All I could think of was how nice it was outside and how lucky I am to take it all in.
As I struck a crisply played 9-iron up the hill 150yrds to the green -
I heard the ball hit the putting surface...
"YES! On In 2! haha!"

I gingerly lagged a 25 downhill breaking putt towards the hole...."Dang!"
It just barely missed the hole but allowed me to tap in for a Par 4. "Neat!"
I reached over and picked my ball from out of the hole, turned around and
saw two does watching me from the edge of the bushes.
I chuckled as I walked away from the green but wondering why in the world am I THIS lucky?  :128-

If you're blessed - cherish all the good things in life...It doesn't last forever.
