Pretty cool.

Bryan Park Champions Course Hole #7

It's good to have that out of the way now...

Here's a picture of the hole from the green. Teebox is on top the hill back there.



Was playing 155yards. Big gully, plays slightly downhill. Chilly and a bit windy. Played it about 165. Hit a little bit of a low fade. Saw it tracking nice toward to flag and lost the ball when it landed. Hit on the front of the green and rolled up. It was sunny and wettish. Hard to see. One of the guys said he thought it went in. I asked if he saw it dissappear, but he couldn't tell really. Got up to the green... no ball on the green. Nobody else landed the green. Now I perked up a little. Everybody else went to their balls. I walked up to the hole and there it was.

This happened on #7. Bought everyone beers at the turn. I got drunk and more high and just had fun the rest of the day. Shot like crap on the back. Didn't care one bit. :lol;

Kind of a weird feeling. Like that was the only thing in golf I really really wanted to do, and now it's done.

What club?
What Ball?

The ball manufacturer will send you something like a bag tag.

The club maker may send something.

On my first, I played the next hole with that ball and almost lost it!

7I, balls were Bridgestones I picked up in the clubhouse that morning.

I have the ball in my office and wrote all the important stuff on it.

Actual the greens were amazingly good. Always are. Those are just spots. Balls rolled amazing, straight. and fast. Greens are always great out there. Dwarf bermuda.

Bryan Park is 36 great holes.

I have 6 or so rounds in the 70s. One was a 75. Hard for me to try for 18 holes. I have more fun when I don't try.

And I'm not all that good. 11/12ish hcp.

I made my first when I was 15. I remember….now what, I can’t top that.

Get another one, then every par 3 becomes…can I get one more.

The Course usually has a contact that will make a plaque for you that holds the ball and a picture of the hole.

That's what I did and it hangs in my home office.

I bought a bunch of tall boy Hoppiums. $30-$40 I think.
