This Space For Rent
Yesterday all I wanted to do was golf. I tried to find people to play with all week and at the last minute got it set up. Perfect weather, light breeeze a cloud here and there.
I brought a Cabaiguan and a La Ricky....loved em both. Around the 6th hole, the beers and shots of captain were kicking in. The course was slow so we were able to have a 5some out there. on the [I Believe] 7th hole 2 of the guys were in the first cart, when tearing down this hill and put it in neutral to release the speed governor. At the bottom they cut the wheel and all I could see was beer bottles and golfers flying out of the cart and then the entire under carriage. They had it back on its wheels before I could get a picture. (no damage was done to the course...wasn't on the fairway so no bashing :thumbsup
We had a closest to pin contest for $5 on the first par 3....no one hit the green so it carried over. We were playing twilight, so we skipped ahead to the 'Devils Triangle' to play that par 3 as our last hole. We took some junk balls and drove a few into the ocean. Then it was on to the closest to pin, it was on this hole:
Mark when first. Hit the hill to the right of the green, rolled on and was about 20 feet from the pin. Next guy was on the back fringe but a bit closer to the pin (all shots counted now that someone was on). I stepped up, pin high but hooked left at the end (to my credit, I was using a 9 iron while everyone else used a 6). Next up was Fran. He stuck it 4 feet from the pin. It just grabbed, no lucky bounces of hills. Last guy up gets all prepared. Aims. Swings.....duffs it about 5 feet. His whole body slunked down as he undid his belt and took his punishment for not hitting past the ladies tee.
Ahhhh....golf.
