Title: Strangest par Post by: BFBoy on September 05, 2008, 10:53:54 AM I'm 3 over after 4 holes, (Double, par, bogey, par), and hit my 5-wood tee shot, on the 315 yard 14th, my fifth, right on the toe and send it OB on the right. :( Hitting 3, I hook my next tee ball into the woods on the left, [sm_disgust] but playable. When I reach my ball, the GPS on the cart says 74 yards to the pin, and there is a small opening through the overhanging branches. I need to hit it low, so I pull my 7-iron. I hit it just right and the ball bounces twice and reaches the green. It tracks perfectly across the ~40 feet and goes in center cup. PAR [sm_beertoast] [sm_drink] [sm_thankyou] [sm_thankyou]. I followed that up with a birdie on next, another double and two bogeys. 42 was my second best score on that course this year. Interestingly, I didn't have one good tee shot the entire day. ???

The scorecards at my course have no room on them to record how. Just how many. ;) Title: Re: Strangest par Post by: Clive on September 05, 2008, 12:23:37 PM Nice round, Mr. Czervik.

Always have some horrible shots and always end up with par or better.
I play a lot of Best Ball scrambles though. Great hole, always fun to have stories like that. Title: Re: Strangest par Post by: BFBoy on September 12, 2008, 06:44:01 PM New strange thing happened yesterday.
5th hole, par 5, third shot from 142 yards out. I hit my 8-iron to the left front of the green, (pin is on right center). When we get to the green, I don't see my ball. Partner says could it be in the hole? I say no. But then yes. But not the actual hole. It seems that someone cut a ~2" diameter hole, about 3" deep, in the green. Maybe for a soil sample??? My ball hits about 8" in front and backs into the hole!!! :o :o. What are the odds of this?
