Congratulations
Congratulations to Val Shpak who aced the 157 yard, 4th hole at Champlain using a 6 iron to hit a power draw. This is Val's 5th career hole-in-one! His first was at Champlain back in 1978. Val was good enough to repay his good fortune by buying a round of beer. Actually I'd prefer it if Val just bought me a lottery ticket.
Congratulations to Andre Tasse who aced the 156 yard, 6th hole on the Island Course at Pakenham. This was Andre's first hole-in-one after 17 years of playing golf. Andre used a 9 wood to hit a one hopper into the hole. Ray St.Pierre, Andre's playing partner, said he was glad he was there to witness the shot as this is the first time Andre has bought a round of drinks in years.

Golf Humour
Once a player has mastered the grip and stance, all he has to bear in mind, in the brief two-second interval it takes to swing, is to keep his left elbow pointed in toward the lefty hip and his right arm loose and closer to the body than the left and take the club head past his right knee and then break the wrists at just the right instant while the left arm is still traveling straight back from the ball and the right arm stays glued to the body and the hips come around in a perfect circle and meanwhile everything is mucked up unless the weight is 60 percent on the left foot and 40 percent on the right - not an ounce more or less - and at just the right point in the turn the left knee bends in toward the right in a dragging motion until the left heel comes off the ground but not too far and be sure the hands are over the right foot but not on the toe more than the heel except that the left side of the right foot is tilted off the ground - but not too far - and be sure the hands at the top of the swing are high and the shaft points along a line parallel with the ground and if it is a downhill lie the shaft is supposed to be pointed downhill too and pause at the top of the swing and count one, jerk the left arm straight down like a bell ringer yanking a belfry rope and don't un-cock the wrists too soon and pull the left hip around in a circle but don't let the shoulders turn with the hips - they have to be facing the hole and now transfer the weight 60 percent to the right foot and 40 percent to the left -not an once more or less and tilt the left foot and 40 percent to the right - not an ounce more of less - and tilt the left foot now so the right side of it is straight (that's the one you hit against) watch out for the left hand, it's supposed to be extended, but not too stiff or the shot won't go anywhere and don't let it get loose or you will hook, then let the wrists un-cock but don't force them or you'll smother the shot and don't break too soon but keep your head down and hit the ball!
THAT'S ALL THERE IS TO IT...unless you move your head...then you're screwed!!
