Had my first double eagle today, drove a par five from the tips on #2 at bears best and sunk the putt. Not my farthest drive, hit one 602 at TPC Summerlin last week.

^ Nick you are like the only person on the planet who I wouldn't call insta-BS on both of the things you just wrote.

So Funny. I was kinda thinking I'd like some action on a black knight (+2) versus Nick Rainey (-10) on his home course. I've never met either (and I'm not calling out black knight in any way by saying this)-- and that was before his latest post.

You hit a 602 yard drive?

[black knight]

On whose home course? I'm only a +2 there, scratch elsewhere.

OTOH, seriously, plz explain the hole that you could possibly drive a par 5. I've only ever seen TWO (>500yds) that was possibly drivable. One was Mt Woodson near San Diego - it was 520 but 3 huge downhill tiers (someone got a hole in one the year before I went). The 2nd is Morningstar near Parksville, BC where it's something like 500 70degree dogleg left and downhill so a 330ish drive cutting the corner turns into about 400, which is what the b-line to the hole would be.

Either way, cudos for doing it!

lol if black knight is just one big level, A+

LOL at people who don't realize what Rainey wrote is an obvious level/jab at black knight (sorry to ruin the fun)

On his course-- or the course of his choosing if he's only playing driver.

I really didn't even process what he said beyond awareness it was some crazy claim-- so I'm not quite as dumb as I may look. Or at least I didn't get a chance to be. In other words, you hurt the hilarity of the thread this time. This is quite apart from the match that interests me.

Whatever buddy, I've seen people drive par 5s, and not knowing the holes he described, I don't default to 'bs!'

I would be willing to bet up to 500k that if given 10 tries, I could hit a 600+ yard drive on a fairly flat surface, maybe a few hills but nothing drastic.
