Hack-n-Whack 2007

I recently played in annual Hack-n-Whack golf tournament sponsored by my office. We played the front nine at the Rio Salado golf course on a beautiful day - in February. And what were all you northern folk doing in February? Not playing golf, that's for sure. The tournament field of golfers was sparce - totaling seven employees from my office. I had a feeling before the match that I had a good chance to win. Maybe it was because I knew 5 of the 6 other players had never really played golf. I only play maybe twice a year, but I have been playing twice a year for many years, so I know how to hack and whack the ball around. I went on to play the my best round of golf ever, recording an honest birdie on the first hole and a couple pars along the way, but a couple triple bogeys set my final score at 8 over par, but it was good enough to take home the championship. Living in golf heaven, I decided I should play a lot more.

If you look closely, you'll notice that the ball didn't go anywhere, but I'm pretty sure this was a practice swing before actually stepping up and hitting the ball as I don't remember having any 'whiffs'.
