Atlanta hole-in-one witness tells all


Have you ever hit a hole-in-one?
If so, what's the story behind the shot?
The photo above is of one of my regular playing partners, Brent Dixon, after he aced the 168-yard third hole at the quirky Atlanta muni course, Candler Park.
The picture doesn't do the occasion justice. In fact, Dixon was so nonchalant about his feat that I had to coax him into posing for a shot AFTER we'd already teed off on the fourth hole.
(He did brim with glee, however, while phoning his father quickly and thanking him for introducing him to the game as a child.)
Kudos to Dixon, a gentleman on the course and a genteel admirer of the finer things in life off it.
If you've got a "first ace" story to relate, share it by clicking on the comment box below.
