Good News 3 years ago

Its been some time since I last posted my progress. Im happy to say im still working with weight watchers and have now lost 20lbs in my 5th week of dieting. yay. I know the weight loss is going to slow down but im just happy because weight watchers is actually making it easy to lose. I like having the support group and the choice of foods!

Score a Hole in One
Hole In One!! 3 years ago

I am by no means a Great golfer, heck im not even a good golfer. I play about twice a summer and only started playing again a few years ago. However I finally scored a hole in one. Yes Sunday September 3rd 2006. I was at Hickory Hills Country Club outside of Chicago and was having a tough day with most of my iron shots, however I would ocassionaly do ok, my 9 wasnt treating me so bad.

My friend and I were on Hole 17, 150 yards. He Tee’ed off first. He used an 8 iron off a tee. He came up a bit short. I tee’ed off with a 9 iron off the ground (Which I did consider changing after he came short but decided to stick with it). It was a perfect swing, perfect contact, the ball lofted in the air, bounced on the gree twice and bounced into the hole (not rolled but bounced) just like you see on TV.

It was an awsome feeling to finally doing this. I was mentioning to my friend on an earlier short hole that one of my goals in life is to get a hole in 1. Guess it just all came together :)
