re: Describe your Hole in One(s)

Only had 1 and never saw it.

I'm not, nor have ever been much of a golfer (never broken 80), but I was playing by myself at City Park in BR one Saturday. Got to the 8th hole (blind uphill ~200 yd par 3) and realized the LSU basketball game I was going to was just about to start so decided I'd just quit after this hole and head out

quickly threw down a ball and pulled my 3 iron (which, like most golfers I've NEVER hit worth a damn) took a quick and relaxed "don't give a shite" swing and hit the purest 3 I've ever hit...watched the ball go up the hill and disappear over the rise, never leaving the top of the flag stick (which was all I could see)....I thought , "Damn that's got to be on the green" (which is a rarity for me)....felt so good I dropped another ball and proceeded to skull a low "stinger" that never got more than 10 feet off the ground

grabbed my pull cart and hurried up the hill to see where the first one was and there was my ball about 6 feet short of pin...knew it was good.

started looking for my second one, but couldn't find it...walked behind the green thinking it surely ran long but no ball....group teeing off on #9 tee box saw me and said why are you looking over there, it hit the flag and is in the hole

walked to the hole and sure enough, my second ball was in the cup

caught up to the group ahead in the clubhouse after and they witnessed for me


predictably, I've never had another one :lol:

agree...always seems to run up to earnings, then drop a decent amount at earnings announcement then hype builds back up...
i'll ask you again, which "people"
my uncle delivered milk for years to BR restaurants...he said if you saw what he saw "in the back" you'd never eat out again...he also said "high end" places were no different from hole-in-the-walls

Neither did the people who were working behind the scenes to push the principal out. They thought it was going to be "business as usual" and they did get what they want because she was fired, but you can't operate with those old tactics anymore. While I think social media is a net negative for society, it can also be used as a checks and balance.


where these people staff or parents?

Yea did you not use the Scott’s and also not apply anything else ? If so that’s on you.



no...haven't used Scott's in 10 years or so....I do use what is recommended on this board for fall pre-em (Specticle) and spring (prodiamine) so not on me

I don't think it was because you didn't use the scott's....I've seen the worst lespedza, crabfgrass and especially doveweed in my 30 years at my current house.

I'd settle for "common sense" gas containers

although I have one, I don't think there's as much advantage getting a SQ dryer as there is for a washer...IMO, any standard brand dryer will do

OP - I require 14 square pine straw bales to mulch my front yard landscape beds - about same size house & lot as yours. 20-22 bales to include smaller side yards and backyard patio landscape beds. I tend to lay it on thick.


good info...thanks Craw
