- Just when you
think you're out they pull you back in...
-
- As I say at
the beginning of the video, I really was prepared
to just focus on Cam or whichever youngins start
kicking butt. The old crew is, well, old. We've all
won it. We're all boring and no one wants to see us
win (especially me). But then something truly
remarkable happens and you just know it needs to be
documented on more than our leaderboard. So with that,
I give you Halloween Match-Play Madness
2021:
-
-
- I really wish is
hadn't been me so people truly believed I'm
documenting this because of the statistical anomally
that is this outcome. Hell even being down 2 going
into the last hole of a match is super-rare and of
course if someone is down 1, I can't fathom anyone
would have the balls to use the Zero shot as a normal
hole-in-one would force overtime... no this shit is
just super rare and to hit it? Again, in a decade it's
never happened and that zero shot has been around
since summer '16. I always HOPED it would create
moments like this, but even when people have been down
by two strokes on the last hole, it just never works
out. Also - you not only have to be down 2, you have
to be the last person golfing! If you're down by 2
strokes and the other person is going last? You
absolutely do the normal shot, hope to get the
hole-in-one to cut it to 1 stroke and then pray they
hit an off-course and bogey. THAT is far more feasible
than the zero shot which can easily become a
double-bogey in mere moments.
-
- But there it was.
I also like that I kept all the surrounding chaos and
music and noise as opposed to the other tournament
videos because it really feels like that night felt. I
mean - this was big for our family. Everyone dressed
up... food, music - and all of it pretty last minute.
I just wanted the kids to have a fun night
SO BAD. Probably a little foolish since they get
their shots most likely NEXT WEEK, but we're
outside... every adult was vaccinated... it meant
everything. I'd venture to say it was the most fun
they've had in years. Literally.
-
- Anyway - what a
shot. What a tournament. What an amazing little course
I have in my backyard. I really do forget because
it's just not something I play except for the 6 times
a year other people come over. And they play it more
than me... so it was nice to remember.
-
- Alright!
TRICK OR TREAT IS UP NEXT!
THEN THE SHOT!
THEN BACK TO SCHOOL! THEN GHOSTBUSTERS!
THEN THANKSGIVING!
-
- AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
