THAT'S GOOD ...
I can be confused with Tiger Woods on the golf course when ... I sink a 40-foot putt for birdie. (Once in a blue moon).
The shot I dread most on the golf course is ... downhill chip on a short-sided green.
My strangest moment on the golf course was... at the Campus Commons golf course. I was teeing off with a three-iron and the club head broke and flew farther than the ball. Unfortunately, I had an audience at the time.
The strangest thing that has happened to me on a Golfest trip ... happened at the Bandon Dunes Golf Resort. After playing 36-holes of golf and before eating dinner, I consumed two large martini's. Shortly thereafter, I couldn't figure out why I couldn't walk straight. The worse thing about it was that I missed dinner.
My (best) shining moment on the golf course was ... when I birdied the signature number 14 hole at the Oak Quarry Golf Course.
If I could add or change anything about a round of golf, I would ... implement a 14-club and one sniper rifle bag rule. In the unlikely event that play was slowed by the group in front of us, the sniper rifle would come into play. Could be, my best shot of the day.
My fantasy foursome would include ... Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, and Vijay Singh and me.
