2nd Ace at Scot Schreiner in Kerrvile, #13

well, first of all, to be clear:
it is my 2nd ace at all, 
not my second ace on this hole . . . 
this updates my superior metrics
but 
if i am to shoot my age, i need more eagles . . . 
the two balls for my holes-in-one,
now on my shelf-of-fame
11-10-01 & 02-16-20
every 19 years or so . . .

ACE # 13 Scot Schreiner in Kerrville





with our eyes stinging from the cedar pollen wafting mercilessly on the winds,
we could hardly see the ball,
plus that green is uphill a good bit
4 iron, 168 yds, quartering wind from the right hurting was a frozen rope
a west texas wind-cheater
that landed short of the green,
but the little bulldog bounced left away from the trap
tractored up the steep face to the green
and obviously to me rolled toward the cup
but still
the chances seemed minimal
having a terrible round -- 
but that's the way it goes with duffers
they get their aces during bad rounds
me and my witness

the scorecard

i'll update my chart of premium holes later.
