GRANDFATHER’S BRAGGING RIGHTS
Spring, 2015 has turned out to be a wonderfully shocking experience.
Ordinarily, I would never get family-personal on this Blog, particularly about our grand children…but I cannot help myself on this Sunday, June 7, 2015.
It’s unbelievable time.
In May, 2015, while participating as a Collegiate School (Richmond, VA) golf team member, in a large tournament at the Hermitage Country Club, Carter Vaden Reid, Jr. shot a HOLE-IN-ONE on the 12th hole, 153 yards, 8 iron, playing with Carter Reid, Hunter Beverly, and Will Klein…at 15 years of age.
Today, June 7, 2015, my grandson did the HOLE-IN-ONE thing again, playing the 2nd hole, 127 yards, with his wedge. Am I impressed or what?
At 15 years of age, he has managed to accomplish a remarkable achievement: 2 holes in one in as many months…something I could not do in 77 years.
GREAT BALLS OF FIRE!

***Ray – Thanks for sharing and we should brag on our children and grandchildren. Congratulations to Carter for this remarkable feat. Our children and grandchildren always seem to surpass us. Had a good weekend at HSC attending the Summer College and PHS luncheon. Missed you! Charlie Sydnor and Ron Heinman were outstanding. Ole ’58 Tiger pal, Max*** ________________________________

Ray,
Just incredible…..someone should send the info to Sports Illustrated….this is the kind of news they include in their “faces in the crowd” section. For someone to accomplish this at such a young age will certainly have national ramifications. Seriously, Sports Illustrated loves reporting on this kind of accomplishment….maybe American Pharaoh will get “knocked off” the cover!
Thanks for sharing. As a grandfather, I can appreciate your desire to brag about your grandchildren. Well done. Ned
