slickpitt is on a distinguished road
Longest Drive! Distance: Unknown!

So we recently went on vacation in the mountains in Arkansas. Little place called Shady Lake... about 40 miles outside of Mena, AR. Awesome place, quiet, beautiful, crystal clear water, etc. Anyway.. close by is the tallest mountain in the range, Tall Peak. You can hike up to it and there's an old fire tower they used back in the 60's for fire watch. So me being the goofball I am... carried a ball, a tee, and a 3-hybrid I don't use anymore up there. Last I saw the ball was still goin!

Practice swing!

Setup!

I really didn't hit a very good shot... but good enough lol. I was worried the club was gonna fly outta my hand... no glove and I was sweating like a pig from the hike.
