Eagle on Ahwatukee CC #18 16-04-21
narrowly missed an eagle on the same hole last week.
shot 47-47=94, pulling wedges, skulling fairway woods, and hitting worm-burners from the tee, but suddenly on 18, again, it felt right, totally a mental thingy . . .
505 yds from blue tees
make it 495 for the front pin.
257 on the drive, the first driver all day with ANY trajectory all day
231 with the 3wood, that had betrayed me all day long,
went 7-7-5 on the other 3 par 5s, making the par after an amazing flopwedge over a bunker
20ft uphill putt, breaking 2 inches left to right
(right to left in the picture above looking back towards the fairway)
i'd left at least 4 other putts dead-in-the-heart-but-short today,
but this rolled in .
that makes me 1-0-3
(aces, albatrosses-eagles)
2 par 4s and finally a par 5 eagle.
