No Hole in One for YOU!

Well I'm going to have to get a job after all. I made it to the semi-finals of the Million Dollar Hole in One and sort of coughed it up.
There were some 50 guys trying for 6 spots in the finals and I missed it. The finals are one shot, for a million.
I thought, "Hey why not me?" The answer came back, "Cause you sort of suck!"

Here is a quick run down of my 3 attempts at the green 150 yards away-down wind.
1st shot: 9 iron, fat/clunky-short. Decide if I'm going to be choking I should club down to an 8.
2ndshot: 8 iron, thin/clunky-short. Decide if I'm going to shit the bed I better at least hit one solid.
3rdshot: 8 iron, sold, straight at the hole, touch long. Nice. 20 feet. Not bad but not good enough.

I hung around awhile to see if I'd made it but after about 20 minutes of hearing wild applause for shots much closer than mine I left.
As Bobby Jones once said, "There's golf and then there's Tournament golf."
Basically it means, you may think your pretty good until a chance at million dollars is on the line and a bunch of people are standing around watching you and you chunk a simple shot cause you basically suck-ass.

Golf Note.
I played Glen Abbey on Friday with some buds and I was pretty good from tee to green but as soon as I had to hit a chip/pitch or bunker shot I stunk. My short game is so bad that I'm thinking of dis-including it from the game altogether. Just tee off, hit my second shot somewhere near the green, picking it up and just going to the next tee and waiting. Way more fun, way less stress.
