Played 18 yesterday as a single & I was playing through quite a few 3 & 4somes. My 2nd time through the course I came upon a younger 4some waiting on the par 5 7th hole. They were all probably in their mid 20's & told me to play through & "show us how it's done". Now usually I have issues with the tee shot on this hole which is a dogleg left with a big sandtrap off to the right side near the bend & really no place to put the ball on the right. Almost everytime I put the ball damn close to the sandtrap & don't usually hit the fairway.
Anyways I tee off & everything clicked, drive was beautiful & landed smack dab in the middle of the fairway about 240 yds out. Take out my 5 iron because I know there is no way I will ever reach the green in 2 & hit another sweet shot that lands about 100 yds from the green. The entire time these guys are watching me too. I break out the PW & almost like I know what the heck I am doing the ball plops right down in the middle of the green for a real sweet G.I.R.. Would have been nice to 1 putt for a birdie but I was still tickled pink to walk away with a super easy par on the hole the entire time being watched by the young guys. I watched their progress from my next hole & I don't think any of them even managed to bogey the hole
Thank God they didn't see me post up an ugly double on the easy par 4 9th hole.
