‘How is it possible?’ Dad, the boy submits a 17m golf moment to-1

Part of the Golf’s appeal, its magnetism, is that in every day you can paint it and do something extraordinary. Anydo shaking – with the elusive combination of the temple, felt and time – can create magic with nature as its background.

Jim Rohrstaff knows the feeling. The moment. He lived a life in Golf. From his days as a club professional to his current role as a partner partner partner, where he conducts golf courses and communities. Kalamazoo, Mich., Local is a Golf Lifer.

But experience cannot prepare you for a lightning strike – when golf gods give something rare as you can be the only person on the planet that has experienced it.

Rohrstaff and his family-his wife Kara and sons Blake and Eric-are on a nine-day golf trip to Scotland, playing hits by Nairn in Castle Stuart and Royal Dornach. The 4th day of their journey saw them reach Cullen Links, an old Tom Morris original who found its way into the Rohrstaff’s Radar’s courtesy for Podcast’s No Laying Up.

“Vibe was very, very strong when we got there,” Jim Rohrstaff golf.com told the phone from Scotland. “It was a good day to be in Cullen. Stunning, stunning day.”

Cullen links was originally formed in 1870, with Old Tom Morris designing the original model with nine holes. In 1905, the “shortest real connections in the world” expanded to 18 holes. Currently plays in just over 4,600 yards and is a par 63 with 10 first and a five. Rohrstaffs saw Cullen as the perfect course to use as their entry point in the Highlands.

But even Old Tom Morris would not predict the golf kisms waiting for Rohrstaffs.

Jimmy started the day by driving the first green and two putting for Birdie. The family sailed along the coastal edge of the Moray coast, enjoying the strange test of Morris connections flowing 155 years ago.

Both Jim and 18-year-old Blake, a 4 handicap, made twice double in the par-3 seventh. Blake’s brother, Eric, who is somewhat young for golf, hit his iron in 25 meters and rolled on the long chest for Birdie. Golf

Next came 280-Oborr par-4 8, a three-storey walk to the Tee box and two shakes created by the Golf gods.

“I brought the driver and 3 wood,” said Jim Rohrstaff. “Blake just brought the driver. I had tee and I said I could hit 3 wood.”

Some ribs of father’s good father from Blake- “That’s not enough for you” -It’s, and Jim decided to hit the driver.

With some help of the right from the right, Jim hit a smooth cut driver, clinging to the green. He watched as the ball sailed over the Greenside bunker on the left, landed in the fierce and took a healthy blow to the right on the surface of the placement.

“I was like,” Oh, this will be really good there, “Jim said.” I saw that hop right and then stopped watching. “

Next came Blake, who tied him and told his father that he would “hit the bullet” the driver.

Blake left his purpose. She landed at the front of the green left, passed through the hole, but then began to return.

Quite strange, being a par-4 and their first time here, Jim and Blake didn’t think much about tracking balls all the way. They saw those land, then descended down the stairs to meet Kara and Eric, who left and then hit their access shots. Kara lost green while Eric landed 25 meters from Pin.

As the family arrived in the green, the search for Jim and Blake’s cannons began. But there was only one ball on the surface of the placement, and that was Eric.

“I walk up, and I’m on the fierce left, just over the bunker, and I look for a second. Opens open. I’m like, where the hell is my golf ball?” Remember Jim. “So I’m looking around a little, and because there is only one ball in green, and I’m like, good, where am I?

Jim returned to the bunker he held and controlled. No ball. Blake’s ball, which should have been in the back of green or just outside, was also not in the eye.

This is when Eric, looking for his brother’s ball, walked beyond the cup and made a golf discovery that will become a story at the Cullen club for years.

“Oh, well there are two here,” Eric said, looking in the cup.

“He’s like, there are two balls,” Jim said while laughing. “And he wasn’t excited at all. He’s like, there are two balls here. And we’re like,” close. “Of course, we go walking there, Kara pulled her phone, and, I mean, I started riding like an idiot.

Jim Rohrstaff and his son, Blake, had both made an ace in the 280-October Eighth Oborn in Cullen Links-a 17-million-in-one chance.

“This was my 11th hole in one,” Jim said. “This is the first of Blake. I obviously I never had one in a par 4. So, I mean, it was just the most gentle, funny thing I have seen, ever heard or experienced in a golf course. It was nuts.”

“At first I didn’t tie the points,” Blake said. “I heard Dad say he had a ball there, and I thought it was only his. And he was like,” No, we’re both here. “And I started going the monkeys.”

Rohrstaffs immediately received sips of their bird Tequila, a key element of the family golf, and then phoned the club to tell them what had happened and inform anyone there that the whiskey was on them after their round was over. When they arrived at the club, the golf’s fate had one more turn for Rohrstaffs. The bartender, Kenny, recognized the logo of the Golf Tara ITI club, the Rohrstaff House club in New Zealand, and his daughter, Madison, had become caded for Kara several times in the club. A festive time with Madison followed, and then dozens of people or more people at the Cullen Links club joined the holiday with two ace with rohrstaffs.

When Jim went to bed that night, long after the family holiday was over, he still could not believe their cosmic events of their day in Cullen.

“I’m telling you, I lay in bed all night by running it in my head,” Jim said. “Okay, how can this happen? How is it possible?”

He thought about the first blind stories in Lahinch and how the cadds once stood on the other side of the dune and placed balls in the hole when they were generously tied. But on this day in Cullen, no one helped rohrstaffs; It was just golf, in all its magnetic splendor, giving a moment that is now the family.

“I still can’t get my head around him. Thing is the craziest thing I have ever heard, and if I wasn’t there, I wouldn’t believe it myself,” Jim said.

This is Golf.
