Yes, it's a classic feel-good story, but, well, darnit, it made me feel good to read it!

Sheila Drummond didn't need to see her hole-in-one. She heard it. Drummond, blinded by diabetes 26 years ago, experienced the highlight of her golfing career Sunday, recording an ace on the 144-yard, par-3 fourth hole at Mahoning Valley Country Club.

There's more in the link.  She has a 48 handicap with the United States Blind Golfers Association.   (Hmm, if she can do it, maybe the worst golfer ever has a chance too.  Smiley)

I don't play golf anymore.   Well, maybe I do sort of.  I quit keeping score, started drinkning beer and I started playing better.
