250 Hit Flagsticks

  Yes, it's true.  I did it, and HATCH62 was there to see most of it.  Am pretty sure that I have the somewhat dubious distinction of hitting 250 pins before anyone else.  Is the only thing I seem to excell at.

  I think Mr. Tibbs may be a little upset with me as he had 219 at the time. 

  I would like to thank The Academy and all the little people who made this possible.  The catagory is "Most Original Greens Play".

  Cheer me, jeer me.  It's all good....

  Though, the idea is to get it IN the hole man.... ;)

  I sure tried, Mr. Tibbs.   Only 102 went in.  It wasn't for lack of effort.  Not like I said, "Let me see if I can hit that pin and have it bounce out 2 inches."

  My hat's off to you and players like Avatar and Thunder.  Your averages are better than my best round.

  Will enjoy the only Diamond that I will ever see though...

  CONGRADULATIONS!!!!!!!!    Yes it was great to be part of WGT history and see the first DIAMOND AWARD for 250 flagstick hits.  Now you can start a new streak.  Good Luck in the future.

  Very impressive, congrats. Are those Snake Eyes wedges that good?

  Please leave the flagsticks alone Ikennedy, the things ain't free ya know. Flagstick abusers will have their putters bent and thrown into the pond from now on. From now on any form of "flashy" or  "show-off" golf will be subject to fines, banishment, and also your balls will be taken away.

  I've been trying to quit, man. Am down to a couple a week but just can't give 'em up. As for the putter and the balls; one I don't use much and the other was lost in the divorce. You guess which...
