What a feeling, par 5, 567 yds. Hit my driver about 310...(actually straight too!)...then rolled a 5-wood up to about 6 feet from the pin...nice straight putt...awesome!

I can usually drive the crap out of the ball, but my secons suck...just one of those lucky things I guess.....

Those are the shots that keep me coming back/spending money/subscribing to every golf mag. available.

No aces yet...but I'm praying!

    Good job man. I have yet to get my first, but, I bet it feels amazing. 310 is quite a poke.

    Nice shot Superbrett. About 2 weeks ago I did something that will probally never happen again. My very first and last whole in one. It was on a 230 yard par 3. Smacked it with a 5 iron, landed on the green and proceeded to roll. The funny part about it was me and the guys I was with spent 10 minutes looking for it on the back of the green and could never find it. So I took a drop at the back of the green to chip it in. As I walked up to the cup, low and behold, there it was, in the bottom of the cup. Beer was on the fellas that night.:D I should be receiving my plaque sometime in the next week.

    You gotta love those eagles. I've only had a few, and it seems like I always follow them up with an 8.:(
