Rather embarrassing; but playing an unfamiliar course with strangers and ended up accidentally anticipating a par 4 tee box… grabbed my ole reliable Titleist GT2 driver and headed up to the tee box… only to find upon arrival my group ask me “Driver, really?” I look up to find, lo and behold it is a long par 3… embarrassed and not wanting to delay the group, I simply reply “I don’t hit it too far; but I’m pretty accurate with this driver. I’ll go for a half swing and see what happens.”
We hit, my “soft” driver shot goes right toward the green, catch a knoll on the left and pops right up, lands on green, and rolls across into the hole!!! One of the gentlemen I was playing with says “Well by god- I’m hitting driver on Par 3’s from now on!”
All of my gym friends proceed to rib me in the weeks that follow as they see the news letter of my hole in one which reads: “Par 3 withDRIVER!”
I’ve told them all- Titleist drivers are just that accurate!
P.S. then I went and got married the next day… hard to top that weekend!
