Big frucking dearl.

Oh.....and no way this happened. Him or kid won't grant an interview.....something fishy here.

Oh....and for 3 eagles (aces).....another hole-out for eagle......chip-in for birdie......and he shoots 86?

****ing hack.

Waiting for our friend Dave Kindred go and do a story on the kid like he did on Gagne.
 
I just got nine aces on the original mini-putt. I'm just waiting for my Nike contract. ...
 
What surprises me more than her lying is the number of people that fall all over themselves to buy into this crap. A societal sickness in my view.

^^^^
EDIT: For the record, the line above is in reference to the Gagne story on Golf Digest. But I don't believe this kid's (dad's) story either. As the saying goes, extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof.
 
When the Mollys finished, the pro shop had already closed for the evening, and they didn't tell the cart personnel or attempt to contact the club at the time.

Of course not. Why would you? After all, it's not like your kid just (allegedly) sank three aces.

****in' liars.
 
My worst golf nightmare is playing by myself and making an ace. I would go bat**** crazy.

But if this really happened (and of course I, too, call hot steaming bull****)...the father just should have said, 'son, you and I are going to have to take this to the grave. It's too ridiculous."

That sort of happened to me, my only witness was my wife. Of course, when I tell people this they think I'm full of it. What makes the story more crazy is the hole I had my ace is where my parents built their retirement home.
 
I don't believe it for a second either, but what motive could they have for lying?
 
Kindred, honestly, what a freaking fantastic story. Baffling reporting, tremendous pacing and a hell of a punch line.

Wow. I hate, hate, hate golf, but that was a hell of a story.

O'course, with a bat-**** crazy woman like Gagne, take away some points...
 
I know it’s not the same, but there was this one night, just one night, where I smoked every single person that dared step up to the pool table with me. I never play, so I’m not that good, but for some reason this one particular night, my good luck was just endless. It was like I could see every single play before I even made the shot. When I’d take the shot it was like BAM, the ball went exactly where I wanted it to.

Now this hasn’t happened again since then, and I’ve played probably six or so times in the couple of years since, but that one night I was totally on fire. Maybe this kid had a game kind of like my night, where he was just on fire and there was no stopping him. True, the odds of having a game like that are slim, but if I can beat every person I play in a single night of pool, then I believe just about anything can happen.
