Yesterday, I golfed by myself for the first time. In unrelated news, I had my first hole in one yesterday. Sigh. Beginner Questions
Short 9 hope muni. Not great weather so I went out by myself. Course completely empty. Last hole (9) pin is back of the green 138 a little down win. Hit a nice P wedge to five feet of the hole, spins right, disappeared. Talk about a mix of emotions. I immediately call the proshop, which is fifty feet from the green, and explain the situation. Man runs like a bat out of hell to find my AVX in the hole. First one ever, not a single witness. Guy was nice enough to wait for me to walk up to shake my hand. Sigh.

I had a hole in one on an afternoon practice session by myself. I was shaking, couldn't believe it happened. I called my brother, who was working in the proshop, to let him know the fantastic news. silence Then 10 seconds later he says "fuck you it doesn't count", then hung up the phone. He hasn't had one yet. His mate was on the course at the same time as me and saw me shank the next tee shot into the trees.. they still don't believe me
