  that shot has gotta be 1 in 100 to make or worse odds

  lol.. I completely agree... probably closer to 1/10,000...

  I'd say it took me about 50 attempts to actually sink this putt.... whenever I got bored and the round was already messed up, I'd give it a try.... it's just a matter of finding the sweet spot to feed it down to the hole.

  Hi All,

  Birdied the hole for the first time yesterday :-)

  Hit a beautiful second shot, perfect weight, landed short left in the rough and bounced on to within about 7 feet. Then there was this horrendous putt - which I made. My first birdie !! :-)

  Anyway - just to cut short on the celebrations, the next time I played the hole I bogeyed it :-(  Thats golf for you.

  Cheers Doug

  LOL.. nice A.Lee...  but that's you and you're.. um... good.  1/50 for you, 1/1,000,00 for the general population.  I would guess that if you got every WGT player a shot at that putt from that spot, even with 2 or 3 practice tries, you would only get a handful of players to make it.

  And those a long odds.
