First ever eagle two!

Followed it up and nowhere to be seen. Looked around for 10 mintues as I was so annoyed. How could I lose a ball travelling straight into a safe area? Decided to just check the hole after everywhere else and there it was.

You looked for 10 minutes ? you only get 5, ball lost take the penalty.

I've only ever had one eagle, and that was a temporary green, albeit with normal sized hole.
Can't wait to have a REAL one!

Must have been the shoes Bob....how you getting on with them?

They are very very nice. Have played 6 rounds over the last 8 days in them and my feet aren't sore in anyway. They also don't sink as they are quite breathable.

As for the driver. Well it's hasn't been kept away. Out today and out of 8 drives only 1 landed in trouble and that was alignment rather than hitting and one ran of into the first cut by about a foot due to the fairways being quiet hard so 6 out of 8 fairways hit. Will definately leave it out if there is high winds though. 3W behaved most of the time apart from one which drew to OOB. Again alignment. Hard to get out of the habit of aiming left to compensate for a slice.

33points and hopefully will buffer with 2 dings and 4 penatly shots and four 3 putts. Really need to hit the practice green with the V-easy. Putting is killing my game at the moment. Ball stricking has never been better since I have stopped keeping my weight on the back foot using irons. Soon I will see a cut. Aiming to get down to at 18 by the end of the season.

I've only ever holed one full-blooded shot. Good nine iron from a fairway that overlooked the green on a lower level. Could tell the ball needed to pitch short left to get close, put it right where I intended and got a great view as it rolled into the hole.

That was many years ago as a teenager playing with my dad. Cue much whooping and running around! Don't remember for sure but might well have been my first eagle as well.

I've only holed once before with a full shot from the fairway but it was to save par!

No pictures on the old scorecard. It'll just show a lovely 2 next to par 4. It really doesn't matter how they go in. Shame there wasn't anyone to share it with you which means you'll just have to do it again now
