hole in one...finally

My father will turn 70 this year. He has been playing the game of golf for about 40 years now. It is a rare and often lucky thing to have a hole in one in this game and my pa finally pulled it off.

He told me the shot was a 7 iron from 140 yards. It was the 18th hole a Coral Oaks Golf Course in Cape Coral, Florida. This is the signature hole at Coral Oaks. It is a beautiful par 3 that extends over water (with working fountain) to a rock-faced green. A tough little finishing hole, especially if the pin is set in on the right side of the green. His shot hit pin high, bounced forward and spun back to the right....plunk!

Congratulations Dad!....wish I could have been there to see it.
