re: Golf Accomplishments, or not accomplishments

Hit a crispy 5 iron off the tee of a 195 yard par 3 last weekend, and the ball slid past the hole by about 3 inches and ended up about 8 feet behind.

Initially exciting but ultimately ho-hum result, except this was in a scramble and was on the hole where an ace won a boat that looked like it had to be worth about $100k. My hands were up and my stomach was in my throat for about 3 seconds. The lady monitoring the hole yelped.

I played 18 recently, and I believe it was the first ever round where I didn't 3 putt (or worse).

Have holed out 2 balls in the 120-130 range, both for eagle (one when I was about 12 years old), plus another 4-5 chip in eagles from green side.

Holed a bunker shot for birdie once, and for par I think another time. The birdie one was on the downhill back side of a greenside bunker and the ball landed right in the hole. Would have been 20 yards off the other side of the green otherwise.
