Saw An Ace Today! [View all]

Played in the old guy scramble, today. As I do nearly every Thursday.
We shotgun & this was 2nd none, so we started on 14.
We birdied 4 of our first 5 holes, then our 7th.
So, we're staring at a 31, unless we birdie our last hole, a par 3 (145 yards today)
I hit 7 iron and was on but not closest to pin, and we're the last of the 5 foursomes. So, if we get one inside the sign, we win.
Other guy playing my tee hit it low & hot so it goes off the back.
The guys over 70 play the forward tees, or 102 yards today.
First guy hits a weak flutterball into the front bunker. Next guy hit 9 iron and bang it hits the stick below ground level. Stays in. He made a hole-in-one on the fly.
There were 4 skins and we got 3 of them, plus both closest to pins & the game. We got $140 of the $160 in the pot. $35 a piece. We would have won with our 31, but we ended up 29.
But, the Ace was worth $10 a piece to us.
And no, he didn't buy drinks. We all think that's a stupid tradition & don't do that.
I was keeping score for the team. First time I ever got to write a one on a scorecard.
