Almost ace, sweet eagles or birds, nice shots but NOT an ACE

Also the place for aces, near aces, beautiful birdies and enormous eagles.

We had 3 "almost aces" at Devens league last night. Pete Tolvanen and I skimmed the top of the basket rim and Franchi hit the post. All on hole 9. A half inch to one side and there'd be nothing but the sound of sweet sweet chains. :evil:

Got the only to-date recorded deuce on hole 4 today at J-Park... maybe 150' out, but a ~25'+ elevation change uphill 8-)

Quite possibly the only good thing that I did all round, too :lol:

Jerel Davis today,

Terrible drive a little left, half way up hole 6 (short) at Buff. Hyzer approach coming up 12-15 feet short. It banks of the tree and hits the basket dead center for a birdie. :shock:

Yeah someone said there were 2 eagles Saturday. That is a tough hole to even get a 3 on since it is so easy to over drive the fairway. Nice shot!

Nice Game!!!

Shot two of my best rounds this week at Wickham. Shot a 59 a few days ago playing the short layout, and shot a 61 today playing long 7 and 9. Also hit my first birdie on hole #10 this week - KC Pro Aviar from about 20 feet behind the bocce court.

Almost had a deuce turkey on B-B at B-land on sunday. Deuce on 13 with a 25-30footer. Got my first eagle on 14 with a flippy wraith that found its way all the way through the S-alley and a 35-40 foot putt to can the 2. On 15 I had a drive that cleared the hill going right and came in the back door...missed the 50 footer though. :shock: :x :cry:

What the heck, I'll do it for him......

Zak Brown splashed chains on Wick 14 this Saturday. Obviously, it's a blind hole but chains were heard and the disc was found laying 2-3 feet away from the basket.

Yup it was verified by the group in front that it did tickle the chains. D-Buzzz.

Playing a solo round of whites at B-land on monday, I was taking extra "practice shots" off the tees and put my 2nd drive in on hole 14....not really an ace but kinda? I also dropped in an 8 foot putt for eagle on 14 blue earlier the same day!

Was playing b-land, hole 8 white to white with Craig Swanson and he unleashed a monster anny flick right over the moth-eaten tree (you know th' one :twisted:). It zoomed all the way down the slot and disappeared from view... then we heard chains... alas, it didn't stick. Woulda been the first on hole 8 that I'd heard of...

Later that round I splashed chains on 14 (that hole is such a tease! :lol:)
