What was it?

I was on a Par 3 course in Lexington. We had just played through a group of women (rudely, hitting into them because they were taking forever), and the guy I was playing with was cussing left and right about it. I was playing like crap so I put the ball on the tee on a downhill 85 yard hole. I say "I hate this game" and swing. Ball goes high in the air and all we hear is "tink!" Yep. Hole in one. There were two good looking girls on the next tee who yelled "Good shot!" and let us play through. I should have quit the game right then and there.

18th hole of the Jungle Course III in Ocean City Maryland....I was 7, after a brutal round of golf in 98 degree weather and 100% humidity, and slow play from the cub scout troop in front of us we finally made it to hole 18. With sweat dripping from my brow into my eyes and mixing with tears from when my mom wouldn't give me another quarter to feed the Koi fish I reared back and let it fly......."tink" right into the clown's mouth for a free game and small vanilla cone.

hahahahahahaha...nicely played Johnny!!!

my best shot was actually my worst!!

There's a course in town close to where I live and they always seem to have a ton of geese all over the damn place! Couple years back we are playing and there just seems to be even more than usual. We play 9, stop for a dog and a beer and are just teeing up at 10, which of course is right beside the clubhouse and the nice big patio! I pull out the driver and just my luck, worm burner, right up the middle. Just my luck, I smash a goose square in the head! It's screaming out in pain, flopping all over the damn place and I'm feeling bad, people are screaming and freaking out! Luckily before I got there, one of the green's keepers came by, grabbed the bird, broke it's neck and the action was over. I felt like crap about it, but then the guy said it happens way more often that you'd care to think. The course had been pushing fish and game to install scare devices in...but it didn't help that day

Did you give yourself a birdie on that hole?

I'm horrible...but I usually get a birdie every round.

RGA - Raleigh Golf Association on Tryon...when they had the 18th par 3 right next to the road. About 120 yards. I chili dipped off the tee to about 70 yards out. Got up there...chipped in for birdie. One of those you knew had a chance the moment it left the club.

Was playing at an airport convention in Augusta GA in a captains choice foursome with three other guys that I'd never met before this past October... we teed off on like #7, a par 5. We talked a bit before and it was pretty obvious the other three didn't play much, so they decided I would go last. They all got up and one by one, hit it in the woods or in the water. So there we are with no balls in the fairway and it's my turn. I get up there and smoke one right down the middle about 300 yards. Turns out that hole is the long drive hole and I won the $100 long drive prize with that shot, the first of the day. I birdied that hole by myself, and our team got 3rd place, well... pretty much I got third place, as they all sucked.

a few years ago I played in the WFNZ golf tournament at Springfield GC in Ft mill. Aside from the chicks in bikinis on almost every hole the highlight of my golf day was on the 7th hole.

They had a PGA tour Pro on the tee box doing a best ball thing for each golfer. He took one look at me and asked "You're playing?!?!?" as if I didn't belong (I really didn't look like I did). It was a par 3 over water and after we both hit it was clear my ball was better and he apologized/congratulated me.

Then we got to the 11th hole, which was the Jager hole. I stunk the rest of the round, but I did do some body shots off some chick in a bikini, good times.

      Most hated teams

      After Bountygate and the information that came out on the Saints owners shielding pedophile priests in New Orleans it will forever be the Saints numero uno for me. FUG THE SAINTS! I hope this is just the beginning of a long term period of suffering for that shitty organization run by even shittier human beings. #2.Pats/Belicheat #3. Falcons (Mike Vick years then Matt Ryan/Julio running it up) Ryan pooping his pants and 28-3 def makes my bad days always better just thinking of those. #4 Pretty much any franchise fan base thats obnoxious Steelers, Eagles, Bills, Jets, Giants, Cowboys, etc.

      PFF Best Rookies so far: Two Panthers

      By BEASTfromdaEAST · Posted

      Thank God DM used that #8 pick on a bona fide WR1 and not some bum pass rushing prospect like Stewart or someone else. I believe Tet is legit WR1 material and going forward will be our long term answer at that position since we desperately were in need of one once they traded away DJ Moore.  Tet could possibly end up even being better long term than someone who I respect a ton as a WR in Moore. Evans has been a pleasant surprise and great TE/FB depth piece going forward who could make the most of his opportunities.  Any good offense worth a damn in the NFL has 3 TEs that can do multiple things and being scared by Ian Thomas play for years should makes us all appreciate what Evans is quietly doing as a ROOKIE at one of the hardest positions to learn at the pro level.  Keep cooking DM. This season is not over obviously but seeing some growth out of young talent finally is a breathe of fresh fuggin air for once.

      PFF Best Rookies so far: Two Panthers

      By mav1234 · Posted

      Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field.
