Joe was playing with me along with two other guys they put us with. I turned to the 3 guys waiting for the applause, and no one saw it....the other guys weren't even looking, and Joe thought it ran off the back. So of course that made me question myself, did it really go in?
We get up to the green, I pull out my two clubs and start my search for my ball....AND as you can see, I don't play with just any old ball....it has to be FLORESCENT ORANGE...I order them online and this time they gave you a free saying of your choice....don't know if you can read this, but it reads LAURA SHERWOOD BEST GOLFER EVER.....Who knew that it was true?...ha!
Anyway, since I could not find it anywhere, I checked the hole....and Lordy Bee...There It Be....in the hole, like it was saying...."Girl, get me out of here, and start your Hole In One dance!"...which of course I DID just that...(good thing I learned most of my awesome moves from jazzercise)...high five-ing these strangers I had just met....and carrying on so much, I forgot to take ONE PICTURE!...and this is from a gal who takes pictures of her meals on vacation....WHAT? No picture? The one above is just a reenactment....they do it all the time on TV, so why not my blog?
I was so excited I could barely play after that. I did pull it together enough to finish the round with an 84....we got rained out for the last hole....major lightening show, so I went back the next day and finished it, since I was told it didn't really count, if I didn't finish the round....and I gotta make it count..I mean, this is my first HOLE IN ONE for heaven's sake! Gotta play it right!
So there ya have it....and I am sticking' to my story! I think every golfer dreams of getting one of these....it is pretty cool. Now of course, I found out that it doesn't mean you are necessarily that great of a golfer, since I golfed yesterday and shot 101....so what is that about? My game was in the toilet all day long. But hey, it was fine by me....I was outside, the birds were singin', I didn't have to do laundry or vacuum, or cook dinner, or fold underwear or weed or NUTHIN'! God is so good to me!
