It's Derek Gilbertson with the Ace Today

Picture: Derek Gilbertson holding up the ball that found the hole on #7 for his ace.

For the fourth Saturday in a row, an ace is to be had here at Lakeview Golf Course. Today it was Derek Gilbertson, 26 year old Loogootee golfer who did the striking of the shot that found the hole. Playing with the Dave Wininger scramble team, he watched his shot on #7 bounce once on the green, hit the stick, bounce back and to the left, then spin back into the hole. Holy Cow! Is this getting unreal enough yet? For the record, Derek was using his Acuity gap wedge and hitting a Pro V1 from about 115 yards. He also thought twice about his club selection and actually went back and got out the gap wedge. Smart. Very smart...
