Breaking 45 for 9

I finnally beat my personal best for 9 holes today 1/27/2010! In addition, my dad now owes me a new iPOD Touch for breaking 45! I shot a 41!

It was not easy. Started the 9th hole needing to score at a par. I hit a fairway wood off the tee 130 yards down the middle. Great shot,said my Dad. This left me with a 120 yard downhill shot over the lake to the green.Hmmm, tough decision. Do I Go-4-IT or chicken out and layup? I asked my Dad what Ishould do. He said it's up to me to choose. If I laid up I would have a 90 yard shotto the green, but would have to hit it really close to the flag to one putt for par. Not likely. "No Guts - No Glory". I went for it! The shot seemed perfect - smooth tempo,perfect contact. However, I could not see the result. It was getting dark. My Dad saidit was a great shot, but would likely be short of the green. When we reached the green myball was 15 feet from the cup on the green and closer than my Dad's :)! A chance at birdie!Well, I missed the birdie but had a tap in for par.
