Thursday, February 16, 2017....buddy (Gerry Witzl) calls around 1:00 pm and says its so nice outside (65 degrees) that he's left work early and on his way home. Wants to know if I want to play golf at St. Peter's (Mo) Golf Course. Hell yes ! We're teeing off shortly before 2:00pm as course was wide open...nice ! Haven't picked up a club since first week of November, but feeling good about my playing. Number 5 hole is a par 3; today the pin was on back right side and about 128 yards from tee. My buddy hits first and warns me about the large tree hanging over from rights side of short fairway. There's also a sizable trap hugging the right side of the green that he has already hit into. I back up against the left tee marker and plan to hit a slight fade from left to right into the green, and avoid the tree and the trap. My Black Titleist 2 does exactly as I plan but since the sun hits this hole from just off the left lied of the hole, I see it hit onto the front of the green, but don't see where it ended up. As I drive up from the right side of the hole, I see Gerry's ball in the trap, but can't see mine on green. I figure it's on green behind trap, or over....never ever thought it might be in ! I walk up around th trap to the green, can't see ball on green, so I start looking at area over the green, but don't see a white ball. Then I start thinking maybe it did go in. While Gerry is getting ready to enter the trap, I look in the hole and there a ball ! Then, I think, "OK, this is a joke, somebody threw a range ball in here or something." Sure enough, I can read "Titleist 2". With putter in one hand and one empty hand, I raise both fists and yell, "Ger ! What the f&$k !" He says, "What ?" I say "Hole in one, I just hit a hole in one !" We both high five and I let out a yell...."Yahhhh !" Here' s the pic of me scooping it out of the hole.
