Your first Eagle...

[ronbo1964]

Just happened across the Golf forum ... No idea when my first eagle was, but my best "eagle" moment was making an 8-footer on a par-5, then driving the fringe of the next hole, a par-4, and chipping in for back to back eagles ...

I've also seen, get this, a guy putting for double eagle ... 610-yd par 6 at my home course (really a par 5, though, but because of the setup, it'd be a DEFINITE 3-shot par 5) ... Club championship, this guy who, when playing with the pro, drove our 435-yd par 4, goes over the pond on this par 6 drive (never seen anyone do that) ... Then, from about 250, hits an 5-wood into the smack dab middle of the green ... 40-footer for "double-eagle" ends up 20 feet short ... Eagle putt 10 feet short, birdie putt 5 feet past ... Nice par putt, though ... I hit 5-wood, 5-wood, 8-iron, two putt for bidie and pick up a stroke on him LOL ...

I've played for 25 years, have tons of eagles, but not THE one I want (hole-in-one) ... Never will ...
