In my 3 yr journey so far from newbie to 13.5 hcap, I hit another landmark on Saturday. An eagle on a par 5. There was a tailwind for the drive which went longer than expected, to within a 4I of the green (about 190). A perfect strike later left me just left off the green, but the wrong side of a bunker. Hit a lovely chip, which landed, checked, and swung about 12 inches right to left to drop into the hole. (It wasn't even racing, I think it'd have gone in even if the pin was out).
Chuffed to say the least, though its not a 'route 1' eagle with a putt for the score, I'll take it!
Too late this season to reach single figures now, which was my goal, but I'm striking the ball better than I ever have, and my driving woes which have plagued me for 12 months are all but gone, I'm ready for next year...
