One Great Shot

The temperature was in the 90’s with matching humidity on August 13, 2013. There was nothing spectacular about my game that day, just plugging along. As we approached number 7 at Hunters Green Golf and Country Club in Tampa, Florida, I had no idea that I was about to record my first Ace. Because I am not a “long hitter”, the air was heavy, and the flag was in the back, I elected to hit my driver. As soon as the ball hit the club face, I knew it was a good shot. My playing partners and I could not see where the ball stopped because of the green’s contour. As we approached the green and I did not see my ball (a Titleist DT Roll), I began to become extremely excited. The ball was in the hole! My game that day ended at number 7 for all I could think about was that Ace!
