It was a phenomenal day on the College Golf Membership in Vancouver, B.C. I used to be taking part in with my good pal, Elliott Graham, who I met on the membership years in the past when he was simply beginning to play golf. We had been taking part in as a threesome and had been paired with a single, who turned out to be an amazing addition to our group.
As we approached gap #7, Elliott and the one teed off first in the direction of the uphill inexperienced, the place the pin was out of sight. From the tee field, we may see about 4 ft of the flag, which was 145 yards away, with a slight crosswind from the proper. I made a decision to make use of a 9 iron. As quickly as I hit the shot, it was heading straight for the pin. Elliott thought it may need gone in primarily based on the sound of the ball touchdown on the inexperienced and the timing of it hitting the pin shortly after.
We walked as much as the inexperienced, and as quickly as I noticed Elliott take out his cellphone, I had a sense it may need gone in, regardless that I didn’t hear what he heard. I ran towards the outlet, and after seeing the pitch mark in entrance of it, I checked the outlet and there it was, my Callaway Chrome Tour X, marked with a purple dot. I used to be overjoyed and fairly emotional, because it was my very first hole-in-one.
