    Stupid trees :(

    OK, so playing Loch March this morning and we get to the 11th tee. I tell the guys I'm playing with that the shot here with driver (we were playing the golds) is to aim it right at the tree that guards the corner because the odds of hitting it are small since it's only 3 feet wide.

    So what do I do? I fire a rocket right at the tree and hit the left side of the trunk about 30 feet in the air. My ball ricochets into the junk on the left. So instead of SW into the green I am punching out to the fairway.

    Yes, I made bogey.
    Not fat anymore. Need to get better at golf now!

    Look at the bright side, you hit what you were aiming for!

    I wish all my tee shots were that accurate. We were kidding that it's a good target because the odds of actually hitting it are so low.

    Funny thing is the guy who hit next only missed it by about two feet.
