'And Now on the First Tee...'" By: Jeff Frazer

Hole #1

Big Cedar Country Club

Teague, Texas

(254) 739-5600

After a drive of about 90 miles from Midlothian, Robert, Dawson, and I arrived at the Big Cedar Country Club in Teague, Texas. For record, we played Hole #1 which is a 298 yard par 4. The pro shop staff were all very friendly and accomodating. This is small town Texas at its finest.

We approached #1 tee box and found that it called for a drive over water. After a long car ride, that should be illegal. My first tee shot was short but DRY! I followed that up with a bad miss hit. I was lying 2 with still about 150 yards to the pin. I took out my new Calloway 3 metal and got close to the green. After finally getting on, I putted poorly and scored a "7."

For Robert, he faired much better. He striped it right down the middle landing in the fairway next to the 150 yard stake. After a good approach, he pitched on in 3 and was putting for par. He made a good putt but scored "5" on the hole.

All golfers should make a point to stop by this fun, friendly course. Teague brought back many wonderful memories for us of our grandparents when we spent time with them at the Teague Hunting and Fishing Club. Thanks for the Memories Teague, Texas!!!

Hole #2

Eagle Rock Golf Club

Ennis, Texas

(972) 876-4653

After driving from Teague, we arrived at the Eagle Rock Golf Club in Ennis at about 2:00 pm. For record, we played the 506 yard par 5 first hole. We knew we were at a neat place when all of the players from the morning rounds were dividing up their winnings. To the victors go the "spoils." We could tell all of these men were regulars of this club and close friends and rivals on the course.

After playing the par 5 where Robert got a bogey 6, and I shot an 8, we enjoyed doing some practice putting and chipping. Hopefully, it will pay off at our next stop. Robert also gave me some pointers on hitting my new 7 wood. I already really like that club.

Thanks for the hospitality at Eagle Rock Golf Club.

"Did He Really Say One of the Hardest Holes in Texas? By; Jeff Frazer

Hole # 3

Old Brick Yard Golf Course

Ferris, Texas

(972) 842-8700

I almost turned around and went back to the car when the gentleman at the pro shop told us that one of the hardest holes in Texas was located at the Old Brick Yard Course. ( #10- the 530 yard par 5 over water) Robert, Dawson, and I smartly chose to play the par 4 -- 339 yard first hole. I got lucky with a 3 metal off the tee followed by a decent approach. Once again, my chipping let me down. After finally getting on, I two putted for a 6. Robert teed off and found the fairway near the fairway sandtrap. He went over the green in two and was able to putt back on in his third shot. He then two putted for a bogey five.

WOW!!! This course at the Old Brick Yard is a nice find off of I-45 in Ferris. The course is lush and beautiful, but you had better bring your "A" Game. The staff was so helpful and obviously proud of their facility. We will be back to this course---

"Stephenville... Football, Food and Foursomes" By Robert Frazer

Hole # 4:

Legends Country Club

Stephenville, Texas

(254) 968-2200

Par 3, 165 Yards

After another 90 mile drive from the metroplex, Jeff & I arrived at the Legends Country Club in Stephenville at approximately 10:00 AM. We needed to add a par 3 to our score for record. We choose the 165 Par 3 2nd hole. Jeff took out his new Callaway 7 wood and was lucky enough to hit a straight tee ball to within 15 yards of the green. Yes, once again, he missed an easy chip and was on in 3. He two putted for 5.

I (Robert) struck a 4 iron that landed pin high just right of the green, and chipped on to within 10 feet of the flag. My putter failed me once again, and I had to settle for a bogey 4.

What we will remember most about this course is how well manicured it is, and the great hospitality we received. We both want to give a special thanks to Dustin in the Pro Shop who provided us great directions to the Club. He is a great ambassador for the Legends ...Way to Go Dustin!!

Stephenville - Not just the home for great Bar-B-Que and Football. It is also home to some outstanding GOLF!!

"HIT IT LONG & STRAIGHT: By Robert Frazer

Hole # 5
Granbury Country Club
Granbury, Texas
(817) 573-9912
Par 5 460 Yards

We arrived at Granbury Country Club at 12:15 PM on a HOT Tuesday afternoon. We needed a Par 5 for record, and were advised to play Hole # 3. A relatively short Par 5 of 460 yards. Jeff said, "We were in for a challenge" when a man in the pro shop asked if either of us could drive 250 yards safely over water!! Jeff's tee ball was straight, but very short. He followed that up with less than stellar approach shots from the fairway. Before he knew what happened, he was lying six, and found himself still 25 yards from the hole. After I gave him a FREE lesson, Jeff made a geat chip shot to about 8 feet from the flag. He two putted for a "9".

I teed off and drove about 200 yards landing in the right rough (What's NEW!). My second shot, I used a 7 wood hitting it 180 yards coming to rest about 70 yards from the green, but right behind a large Oak guarding the green. I pitched short of the green, and chipped over in four. I could use a much needed putting tip, because I then 3 putted for a double bogy "7".

We had a question - "Do you have MULLIGANS in Granbury, Texas??" Once again, the hospitality in North Texas was unbelievable. We would like to give a special shout out to Sylvia in the Pro Shop who was able to get us on the course which allowd us to document our play at the Country Club. Thanks for representing the game in such fine fashion!

My Latest Find By: Jeff Frazer

I recently purchased a Radar Golf System, which allows you to find balls that have been lost on the course. People always say that I'm a sucker for the latest "Golf Gadget". They are probably right, but I will be reporting on the functionality and practicality of this device. It is my hope that it will allow me to save strokes and wasted time looking for my lost balls. Wish Me LUCK

"A Real Family Affair!!" By: Robert Frazer (Proud Father Of Morgan)

Hole # 6

Waxahachie Country Club

Waxahachie, Texas

(972) 937-3521



Par 4
346 Yards



This stop was some of the most fun that we have had so far on our ROAD TRIP because we were joined by my daughter Morgan and her friend David. We played nine holes at Waxahachie Country Club. It was a blast, but this course can be difficult because of the number of holes that water comes in to play. Also, a number of holes have narrow "shoots" (Hole # 2) which required near pinpoint accuracy off the tee.

***One discovery we made is that Jeff's Radar Golf System actually does perform as advertised!! We used it on two holes to find wayward balls that would have normally been lost in the tall grass. Every Golfer should checkout this system at (http://www.radargolf.com/)

Our hole for record was # 7 a 346 yard Par4.

Jeff again hit a straight tee shot which was followed by a "Chili dip" second shot. Jeff focused on his third shoot and placed it approximately 60 yards from the green. He hit a wedge to about 12 feet from the flag. (My lessons my be paying off!!). He sank a "highlight reel" putt for a bogey 5.

I didn't fair as well. I hit my normal short tee shot to the right side of the fairway. From the tall rough I hit a "Flier" into a fairway bunker. I had to punch out. My fourth shot I smoked a 9 iron over the green and had to up and down for a double bogey 6.

It was really fun watching Morgan and David interact with each other. On # 8 (a Par 3 over water) Morgan hit it "High and Dry" way to go Morgan. A lesser golfer would have accepted the penalty stroke and immediately gone to the drop area on the other side. Courage under pressure really paid off for Morgan. David's lessons are almost as GOOD AS MINE!!. David also is now sporting a souvenir shirt from Waxahachie Country Club.

P.S. Thanks Cody for the directions around the course. You are the friendliest course Marshall we have met! Keep cool in your cart.

"Up and At It Again!" By: Jeff Frazer

Hole # 7

Lake Whitney RV and Golf Club

Whitney , Texas

(254) 694-2313

Par 4, 345 yards

Leaving at our normal 8:30 departure time, we traveled to Lake Whitney RV and Golf Club on the beautiful shores of Lake Whitney. (We found ourselves a little hampered today because Robert's cell phone was mistakenly left at the house.) Upon arrival at the club, we met the owner Scottie. He was extremely personable and told us the signature was # 8, a 350 yard par 4 with a tee shot over water. I was not feeling comfortable right out of the car, therefore I allowed Robert to play the hole solo. Robert did score a bogey 5 on this warmup hole. We also practiced on # 9, a 491 yard par 5. I once again found that the Radar Golf system is effective, when my tee shot found the DEEP rough on the right. Radar Golf honed in easily and we found a ball that would have normally been lost.

Our hole for record at Lake Whitney was the 345 yard straight-away par 4 10th hole. I had a pretty good drive landing in the short rough about even with the 150 yard marker. After a very "questionable" approach shot, I hit my third shot pin high left of the green. After blading a chip shot over the green, I chipped back on and two putted for a "7."

Robert had a great drive landing just left of the 150 yard marker in the short rough. Using his 5 iron, Robert hit his approach shot to right of the green. His chip went over in three. He then chipped on and two putted for "6."

If you happen to be between Dallas and Austin, this course is worth the effort. It is a little off the beaten path but has tremendous golf and exquisite views of Lake Whitney. Come and see for yourself!

"God's Country In Central Texas" By: Robert Frazer

Hole # 8

Bosque Valley Golf Club

Meridian, Texas

(254) 435-2692

Par 4, 292 Yards

The Bosque Valley Golf Club in Meridian, Texas is the reason we chose to take "Golf's Ultimate Road Trip." As we pulled up at about 12:30 on Wednesday afternoon, we saw a Dad with his two sons playing golf. We went into the pro shop and met Susan. She treated us like old friends and was so proud of her course. We chose to play the par 4 1st hole which is 292 yards.

Jeff hit a tee shot to the left and was left with about 110 yards to the flag. He hit his second shot short and to the right of the green. Jeff's third shot was a chip that landed on the green, but just trickled off the back edge. He then pitched on and sank a 5 foot putt for a bogey 5.

I hit a straight drive that landed in the fairway (I know what you may be thinking, but it really did happen) abot 90 yards from the cup. I used a pitching wedge that landed on the front edge of the green and stuck. I then 2 putted for a "routine" par 4.

Bosque Valley Golf Club is very well maintained by the manager Phil and his staff. The fairways especially were some of the best we have found on our trip. They were easy to hit off of. GREAT COURSE--- and simply we could not have been treated any nicer!!!

"Tall Tales Are Sometimes Spun in Tall Grass!" By: Robert Frazer

Hole # 9

Bogey's Golf

Waco, Texas

(254) 754-4401

Par 3, 163 Yards

After a brief detour to see George W. Bush (or at least his ranch in Crawford), we arrived at Bogey's Golf in Waco at 3:30 PM. I chatted with the attendant in the Pro Shop who also was from Midlothian.

We needed to play a Par 3 for record, so we chose Bogey's Golf which is a Par 3 course. After a few warm-up holes, we chose hole # 7, a 163 yard straight hole. If was a "tight feeling" hole where you tee shot must be played over a large oak tree. Jeff hit a great 5 iron over the tree and just shy of the green. From the "tall grass" he chipped on the green and two putted for a Bogey 4. (Miracles still happen!)

I teed off with my seven iron and landed just short and left of the green. I then chipped on and two putted for a bogey 4. Obviously, this is why they call it "Bogey's Golf."

This is a very fun and accessible course for all skill levels where all can have an enjoyable round of golf. Thanks for letting us experience your facility!

"Sometimes The First Really Is The Best" By: Robert Frazer

Hole # 10

A-1 Golf Center

Rockwall, Texas

(972) 771-3996

Par 3, 70 Yards

We traveled on Thursday morning over to our sister Molly's old home in Rockwall arriving at A-1 Golf Center at 9:30 AM. We discovered that this is a nine-hole par 3 course. We started at the first hole which was 70 yards.

Jeff hit his tee shot short and just to the right of the green. He had a good chip that landed about six feet from the pin. He missed his par putt, but did make a bogey 4.

I hit my tee shot on the front left edge of the green and pitched up within 10 feet of the flag. I also two putted for a bogey 4. It felt pretty good to have a hole on record, and it was only 10:00 AM. We played several more holes to warm up our short-game shots. Let's see if this pays off on our next stop.

A-1 Golf Center in Rockwall is a nice little practice facility. It is very clean and well kept. There were staff on the course keeping it groomed. Rockwall, which is a suburb in the DFW metroplex, is a quickly growing area. This facility is certainly a nice recreational addition to the community.

"Mr. Miyagi Meets The Sumo" By: Robert Frazer

Hole # 11

Stone River Golf Club

Royse City, Texas

(972) 636-2254

Par 4, 316 Yards

Just seven miles down the highway from Rockwall is Royse City where we found the Stone River Golf Club. It is a NEW facility that is part of a residential golfing community. The first thing we noticed is how nice the club house is. It has a well stocked pro shop with all of the latest golf equipment and apparel. After paying our green-fees I noticed they had a new Nike "Sumo" demo driver. This is a driver with 460 cc head which is some of the newest technology. It really cuts down on "miss hit" shots.

After warming-up on # 1 we decided to play the 316 yard par 4 second hole for record. It is a pretty little hole with a small pond guarding the left side of the fairway.

Jeff also tried-out the new "Sumo". He hit a tee shot off the toe, but is still managed to travel to the 200 yard marker. After topping a 3 wood, Jeff hit a weak chip landing about 40 yards shy of the green. He then had a good pitch shot to within six feet of the flag. Jeff then two putted for a "6".

Using the "Sumo" driver. I hit a good drive just to the right of the fairway at the 150 yard marker. I hit my 6 iron that landed just short and left of the green. Chipping on to within 15 feet of the hole, I two putted for a bogey "5".

The real star of this stop at Stone River Golf Club was the Nike "Sumo" driver. It is a must have for any player trying to increase their accuracy and driving distance off of the tee. I also commented more than once to Jeff how nice this course layout is. I feel confident that I'll return to Royse City again to play the Stone River Golf Club.

"Squirrel And Even Squirrelier Shots" By: Jeff Frazer

Hole # 12

Mineola Country Club

Mineola, Texas

(903) 569-2472

Par 4, 367 Yards

Do you know where Mineola, Texas is? We chose Mineola because our uncle owned a farm in Golden, Texas just down the road from Mineola. It is clear that you are in East Texas because of the abundance of large pine trees that line this course. On hole # 2 which is a par 4 that we used as our record hole, there were squirrels underneath the trees that weren't afraid to approach humans and they would come right up to you. Playing in Mineola is a lot like playing at a resort course in the mountains. We especially enjoyed the wide variety of tee box options. You can make each hole as challenging as you want.

Robert's tee shot drifted right at about the 150 yard marker. He then had to punch-out from underneath the pine trees, after he moved a squirrel. Using a 8 iron Robert chipped on from about 120 yards landing about 18 feet from the hole. He two putted for a bogey "5".

On hole # 2, I hit my tee shot a little to the right at about the 200 yard marker. After "duffing" my 3-wood and pitching short to approximately 40 yards, I had a good chip to within 10 feet of the flag. Now lying 4, I two putted for my usual "6".

Texas golfers must stop at this truly gorgeous club. You will not be disappointed! The greenskeepers were giving the course the constant care that made it a real joy to play. Thanks to Casey for explaining to us the course layout and tee-box options.

"Overcast But NOT Over Cost!" By: Jeff Frazer

Hole # 13

Oak Grove Golf Course

Terrell, Texas

(972) 563-8553

Par 4, 290 Yards

On an overcast Friday morning, we started at the Oak Grove Golf Course in Terrell, Texas. This is a pretty nine-hole course situated about an hour East of Dallas. Using our American Cancer Society Golf Pass, we got green fees and a cart for only $10.00 per person.

Robert started out on fire with several pars in a row to begin the round. I started a little less well with several shanked drives. (Sometimes it doesn't pay to get out of bed in the morning). Luckily, Robert convinced me to play the nineth hole for record. At Terrell, this is a 290 yard par four. I hit a good drive that drifted a little right near some large trees. I tried to punch through the trees but hit one instead. From about 50 yards, I punched under the trees with a 7 iron and actually hit the flag on my third shot. I missed the four foot putt for par, but I did settle for a bogey 5.

Robert hit a tee shot right down the middle of the fairway landing about 130 yards out. He used his 8 iron which landed on the front of the green. He chipped toward the hole and then had a four foot putt for par. (I told you he was on FIRE this morning!)

Oak Grove Golf Course is again one of those really nice small-town courses where people are friendly and love their golf. This is a good place no matter what your skill level.

NOW ON TO BIG "D"...

"Family-Owned Golf In Famersville" By: Jeff Frazer

Hole # 14

Leatherwood Ranch Golf Course & Club

Famersville, Texas

(972) 784-7338

Par 4, 216 Yards

Have you ever wanted to own your very own golf course? A family in Farmersville does... The Leatherwood Ranch Golf Course & Club. The family home doubles as the the Pro Shop with the practice putting green in the front yard. This is a nine-hole course with seven par 4's and two par 3's. The par fours are all very accessible for short hitters with lengths ranging from 212 yards to 334 yards. The course is very lush with beautiful flowering plants. There is a small creek running through the property and several changes in elevation. I absolutely loved this course because it is fun for the novice golfer.

After playing the par 3 first hole for warm-up, Robert & I chose to play the par 4 second hole for record. It is a short par four of only 216 yards, but you are forced to carry the small creek on your drive. I used my new Callaway 7 wood. I drove it over the creek a little right of the fairway. I tried to pitch it on, but I bladed it. The ball though did roll up onto the green. I was able to two putt for a par "4". Please remember this is only a 216 yard hole.

Robert hit his tee shot short and right of the green, about 80 yards from the hole. Using a sand-wedge, Robert nailed his pitch shot to within 10 feet of the hole. He also two putted for his par.

We both fell in love with this fun course and want to come back again when we can play the entire course. If you go to Leatherwood Ranch Golf Course, remember the front door of the house doubles as the entrance to the Pro Shop. You must put Leatherwood Ranch Golf Course on your list of must-play courses in the Dallas area.

"Cowboy... I'm The New Marshall In Town!" By: Jeff Frazer

Hole # 15

Cowboys Golf Club

Grapevine, Texas

(817) 481-7277

Par 4, 368 Yards

You know that you're in a different league when at the Cowboy Club you are met at your car by an attendant who takes your clubs to your cart for you. I then went into the club house to change into shorts (because I did not meet their dress requirements) and found the Men's Locker Room. I changed clothes in front of the locker belong to former Cowboy great Jay Novacek.

We had about 30 minutes prior to our tee time so Robert & I had a chance to warm up our putters on the practice green. (This is NOT in somebody's front yard). At then we were off...

This whole experience reminded me of the panic I felt the first time I skied down a "Black Diamond". If there are "Black Diamonds" in golf, the Cowboys Golf Club certainly is one. When we got to the first tee, we were met by the course "Marshall". He explained the rules of the course and suggested that we play from the "Blue" tees (easiest). You should have seen the expression on his face when Robert explained that I was just a novice golfer. The best word to describe his reaction was...PITY!!! Robert was once again demo-ed a SUMO "Square" driver. We took turns using it on the first tee. I hit it pretty good but short. It landed on an extreme up-slope. I started a policy that after a bad shot I would pick up my ball and placed it with Robert's ball. That worked pretty well. Let's just say that I did a lot of picking up my ball.

My best hole was the Par 4 fourth hole that has the Dallas Cowboy Star in the middle of the fairway. My drive went straight and rested next to the star. I blew my second shot but did reach the green in three. I three putted for a six. I'll take that everyday at this course.

Robert's "record hole" at the Cowboy Club was the par 4 11th hole. With a distance of 368 Yards. He had a good drive which landed in the right rough. He chose to use my 3-wood for his second shot and he hit it about 180 yards. It landed in a green-side bunker. Robert negotiated the long bunker shot that landed on the back edge of the green. He then made the "Shot-Of-The-Day"--a long 20 foot putt for par. On this course, that par felt like an eagle on most other courses. Call ESPN - This hole should make their High-Light show.

The Dallas Cowboys Golf Club has consistently been ranked in the "Top 10 You Can Play In America" by Golf Magazine. The club is award winning, but it is not for the faint of heart. Bring your best game (and a pocket full of money)-- they will have the "Marshall" watching.

"Did He Really Do That?" By: Jeff Frazer

Hole # 16

Oak Trail Golf Course

Corsicana, Texas

(903) 872-1801

Par 4, 273 Yards

Par 4, 340 Yards

Our LAST of the journey is today: Saturday July 14, 2007. Under threatening skies, Robert, Austin, and I drove about 60 miles South to Corsicana and the Oak Trail Golf Course. We arrived at about 9:30 AM to this picturesque "11-hole course". I was determined on the last day to concentrate on areas of my game which needed work-- especially my chipping game. So many times I would place my ball where Robert drove his ball. This gave me a chance to work on my short game. My hole for record was the par 4 3rd hole, with a length of 273 yards. After placing my ball where Robert's landed about 150 yards out, I used my 7-wood and it landed just in front of the green. The biggest mystery of all was that today I was able to master my short pitch shots. I pitched it up about 4 feet from the hole for a 'mulligan 4". I will take it. On several other holes I also pitched up near the pin, but it is still too early to pronounce me cured. There are still two stops to go.

On one hole I did hook a ball into the trees of to the left of the fairway. Thank goodness it was a Radar Ball. Robert & Austin pointed me in the general direction and then the hand-held unit honed in quickly on the ball. This would have certainly been a lost ball in the trees. The GADGET WORKS!!!

Robert probably had his best nine holes of the trip at Oak Trail in Corsicana. He hit almost every fairway dead-on. He also was HOT with his putter. Robert's hole for record was the par 4, 6Th hole which is 340 yards long. He hit his shot to the middle of the fairway about 120 yards from the pin. He used his 9 iron and landed just in front of the green. After "Chili-dipping" his first pitch shot, he proceeded to chip the ball in the hole from about 75 feet. I had to do a double take asking myself, "Did he really do that?" That may have been the shot of the week.

Austin saved his best for the last hole. This was a short par three of about 100 yards. he took dead aim at the flag using his 7 iron. He hit it in the air over a small pond. It came up only a few feet short landing in the water, but it was a beautiful shot. Austin placed a ball up on the green and then sang a lengthy putt. He got consistently better as we played each hole. Even with that, Austin's number one question remained: "How many points would he lose for driving the golf cart off the path?"

This drive to Corsicana was well worth the effort. We all had fun and enjoyed Oak Trail Golf Course. Check it Out Too..

"Yes, We Do Have Options" By: Robert Frazer

Hole # 17

Country View Golf Club

Lancaster, Texas

(972) 227-0995

Par 5, 468 Yards

Yes we do have other options... After playing the morning round in Corsicana, we needed to chose a club close to Dallas so Berkley could join us for the last stop in Grand Prairie. Nothing in our Cancer Society Golf Pass worked well for a Saturday round, so I suggested a good course in Lancaster- The Country View Golf Club. The weekend green fees very pretty expensive, both we found discount coupons on their website where we could play for only $18.00 including a cart. This course was really worth it.

It was cloudy but a very hot afternoon when we teed off. So far no rain. We all three were playing nicely-especially Austin. Who is able to get his driver off down the fairway- straight and in the air. He has the makings of a very fine player. Jeff and I kept up our momentum from the morning round.

We chose the par 5, 4Th hole for our hole of record. Jeff teed off and went a good distance landing in the right rough. He then used a 3-wood clipping a small tree but going through coming to rest on a fairway mound. Using a 7 iron he chipped up in front of the green. He had an excellent pitch to within 4-5 feet of the flag and sank the putt for a PAR 5. Certainly an improvement from the 8's on some of the other Par 5's.

I then teed off on the par 5 and it drifted into the right rough. I used a 7-wood and landed just short of the green. I pitched on to with-in 7 feet for birdie, but two putted for a par 5.

Country View is a professional style that has actually hosted collegiate golf Tournaments. There is also a lot of water on this course. Many holes have interesting designs and unique landing areas. A good example is the par 4, 7Th hole. Where you hit over water on your tee shot. From the landing area, you must hit over trees and water again to reach the green. This can be an exciting hole, but quite demanding. We all very much enjoyed this course. You will as well. And now on to OUR LAST STOP...

" Thanks For The Memories!!!" By: Jeff Frazer

Hole # 18

Sunset Golf Club

Grand Prairie, Texas

(214) 331-8057

Par 3, 128 Yards

As we drive to Grand Prairie, the skies continue to clear. We are going to make all 18 stops in 6 days without any weather delays. In Texas this summer, that is a real miracle. By the time we end our journey, we will have traveled more than 1450 miles and played at least 72 holes of golf on 18 different courses. We have chosen 18 of those holes as our record holes. The par for our round of 18 holes in our "Ultimate Golf Road trip" is 71 strokes. Please don't be too cruel in your judgement of our play until you too have undertaken this journey. If you ever decide to take a trip like this, let us encourage you to invest in an American Cancer Society Golf Pass. This Pass has save both of us a large sum of money as we have purchased green fees and carts on our trip. You see golf at its best when you can travel the back roads. Not to mention you meet terrific people and see gorgeous countryside.



And now for OUR LAST STOP... Robert, Austin, and I pulled into sunset Golf Club in Grand Prairie at about 4:45 Saturday afternoon. We were all tired, but each of us was primed and ready to do our best and to finish strong. Our hole for record was the par 3 fourth hole. Because of a tournament at The Sunset Golf Club we were ask to start at this Par 3 hole. There was water short and right of the green. I hit a 7 iron straight, and it landed just in front of the green. I pitched up onto the green and nearly made my par. I did make bogey 4 which I will gladly take.



Robert hit his tee shot to the left of the green he had a great pitch back onto the green. He then two putted for a bogey four. We were now complete for record--



BUT WAIT-- NEWS FLASH!!!



10 year old Austin Frazer makes his first ever par on the last hole of our trip!! At about 5:30 PM, Robert convinced us to play one last hole which was the Par 3 ninth hole, with a distance of 85 Yards over water. Austin & I both hit over the water and landed on the green. We both had birdie opportunities. I then three putted for my routine bogey 4. Again, I'll say I will take this every time. And then came Austin. He had a 20 foot birdie put which he missed by only 2 feet and he then calmly sank his par putt. This 10 year old had his first ever par and a shot that all of us will always remember. That's really what this trip has been all about--- making lifelong memories with your family on the "Trip Of A Lifetime." If you ever have the chance top do something like this, take the opportunity and involve all of your family or friends. You won't regret it. We certainly have not!!

FINAL SCORE---- PAR: 71

ROBERT FRAZER---86

JEFF FRAZER---100

THE NEXT "ULTIMATE GOLF ROAD TRIP" WILL INCLUDE A STOP FOR MORE LESSONS!!!
