Loch Lomond
By JWard On July 15, 2018
Monday brought us to Loch Lomond for the Durham Cricket Club annual sponsors golf day, my first time to Loch Lomond brought with it a first class experience of the best course I’ve ever played or seen. After playing poorly to begin I reached the par 3 8th, 140 yards playing 125 but into a slight breeze. Using a caddie for the first time in my life, Ryan gave me a 8 iron, reaching the tee box the wind seemed to die a little and he switched clubs back to our original thought - 9 iron, I connected sweet and eyed the hole up and down, the ball landed on top of the ridge and rolled towards the pin, I then saw it drop... a surreal feeling after witnessing my first ever hole in one, however the caddies didn’t say anything other than there’s a ridge and it might have gone in but I wouldn’t be so sure, after pacing towards the green I realised there was no ball and saw it in the cup. A brilliant occasion, golf course, company and moment that I will remember for the rest of my life... and of course it had to be done with a titleist pro v1! Thanks guys!!
