OT: Sunday Morning
Tom Cronin
Oak Knoll Golf Course
Ashland, OR
Hole #7, par 3, 195 yards
5 wood, started slightly right of the flag, then drawing back in.
Landed on the front fringe, two bounces, tracked straight into the
hole. Two of my regular golf buddies, Jeff and Frank, were there to
witness.
Been playing since I was 10, never had an ace... until today.
We now return you to your regular programming.

Not if Tom is a Seventh-Day Adventist.

Wow, pretty cool! Congrats!
Maybe...did you buy a round for everyone in the clubhouse?

Wow, Tom! Congratulations!
Of course, you must frame the ball and the scorecard to hang in your
"golf room" (or your family room).
Maybe there will be another ball and scorecard to add one fine day.

Did you get any sort of prize when you get a hole in one?
Congratulations.

In my experience, you only get a prize if you do it in the context of
a tournament. If you're just playing a round, all you get is bragging
rights.
Congratulations Tom!
I went golfing Sunday also, and I'm wondering where you live?
Florida? SoCal? It was 13 Celcius when I played today, and by the
beginning of the 5th hole my left hand was completely numb. I had to
wrap the fingers of my left hand around the club with my right hand to
get a grip. And after two days of heavy rain, the course was so soggy
that my drives just went as far as they went, airborn, and then went
"plunk!" and stayed where they landed.
I guess that's the end of golf season in the Pacific Northwest...

Yes, but because it was still fairly early, most guys opted for
Gatorade or iced tea. It could have been much worse.

Bob The Pro promised me a free 9-hole round next time I play. That's a
$16 value!

Two doubles, one morning and one afternoon. Bags got heavy as hell
toward the end. Guy with the plaid pants hit a hole-in-one on the 7th
and bought drinks for all his buddies. Tipped me 20 cents on the 18th
green.
Been caddying since I was 13, never been stiffed like that... until
today.

I hesitate to use the phrase "wallowing in self-pity," because not
only is it a cliche, it also doesn't begin to describe the degree to
which self-pity defines your very existence. It envelopes you, like a
straightjacket, strangling the life out of whatever hopes and dreams
you may, at some point in your tortured life, have once had.
Add to that your apparent inability to distinguish "plaid" from
"madras," and that's one helluva pathetic life you're leading,
brother.

Did you see this in Monday's Wahoo?
