My first HIO at Bonita Golf Course.
By Daniel C On 4 October 2018
A beautiful day on September 22, 2018 around 10am, Step into the 9th tee. Pin located in front of the green. Checked the distance (153 yds). Selected my 8i for a 150+ shot.
Made good contact and the ball travel with a baby draw (right to left) landing about 9 feet in front of the pin and rolled into the cup!!!
The practice green is behind the 9th green. There were about 8 golfers practicing. To the left of the 9th green is the 16th green and to the right the tee box of 17. As you can expect on a sunny Saturday morning, the course was packed. A lot of witnesses.
When the ball disappeared from sight, the golfers on the practice green began cheering and the rest follow suit. It was a magical feeling. After 20 years of playing this beautiful game, finally it came thru.
When I picked up my ball my former instructor was on the practice green. He came down to greed me. Told me: "See I am a great instructor." We had a laugh.
Usually I play the Pro V1 ball. That day I played the NXT... It was destiny.
Sincerely,
Daniel Contreras
