Made the decision to play golf at Hilton Head Lakes and meet a few freashmen from my college (Professional Golfers Career College) instead of one of the Sea Pines Plantation course. teed of at 1:40 P.M. it was set to be 4 of us (Tyler, Judd, Riely, and me) golfing but a course employee (Sean) asked if he could join us for a few holes which with him made 5. started off playing a shag ball i didnt mind losing, after birdie on the first hole i switched to what came to be the hole in one titleist prov1 ball. hole three was a par 3 157 yard par 3 from the back tees (blue) that day and there was a slight breeze into my face. with a hole-in-one being made by a girl from my school (Cydni Joyer) on the same course a week earlier, i thought to myself, "i need to stop playing to the middle of the green and go for a hole-in-one on every par three" i took dead aim right at the pin with a 7 iron and hit the shot of my life, as soon as it left the club face a playing partner said good swing and we watched it bounce once, roll a few yards and disappear. we looked in silence for a few seconds, processing what just happen, finally someone said It went in! My first hole in one! One of the best feelings id ever had and if one little detail of that day were to change, it would have never been.
