I put my tee shot into some trees. Layed up, just to get out of the trees and had a blind third shot from 90 yards out. My buddy got to the green in two. I holed out for birdie and my friend had already pulled the ball out and everything before I even walked up. Said he didn't know I couldn't see the hole. I could hear him cheering while I walked up, so I just thought I had it close. Would love to relive that moment so I could see the ball in the hole. Never had a hole in one and I've knocked some in from a little closer, but that's the furthest out I've ever holed out and I didn't get to really relish any of it!

The greatest day of my life and the best decision I have ever made was when I made my way to an alter at a little country church 43 years ago and God saved my soul. I made my way down to the alter with a heavy burden when I came up that burden was llifted. It is a feeling only those thay has been saved can relate to. I pray that everyone that reads this may one day enjoy that same feeling. I haven't lived a Christian life every day since then but I do know I am saved and Heaven will be my home one day. To this day I know the very spot I was saved, I will never forget it. May God bless each and every one of you.
I was a decent football player in HS, but because of my size and (lack of) speed, I spent the majority of my career at Defensive Tackle and Center (Offensive Tackle my senior year).
My junior year, the stars aligned and I played Middle Linebacker the last half of the year. I was pretty solid against the run, but was just a step or two slow to be good against the pass.
Anyway, I played for a horribad HS football team. My Junior and Senior years combined we won exactly one game. (There were some close ones in there). The game we won was against our biggest rival my Junior year. We beat them in double overtime.
During that game, they had the ball at about our 20 and it was 4th and 1. They decided to take it up the gut and I was at middle linebacker. I saw the hole open up in front of me and I met the running back in the hole with probably the best pure hit I ever laid on anyone in football. I destroyed the guy. We got the ball on downs and eventually won the game. The way we celebrated, you would have thought we had won state.
A couple of years later, my cousin who went to that rival school and I were hanging out and we met up with a guy who was an assistant coach for that team. (they were a few years older than me). He said that when the team watched that game film their coaching staff replayed it several times as an illustration of how you tackle.
