      This is a PowerPoint presentation -- you'll need PowerPoint to view it.   Microsoft offers a free download.   The presentation has www.haveaboo.com on the last slide.  I went to that site and found it's a wellness site. A google search came up with several other sites but I was not able to determine who created the presentation.  So I don't know who to credit.

      If any of you can help let me know.  

      Turn on your speakers and enjoy a sensational presentation.

      907 yard par 3!

      900 yard par 3 19th hole at Legend's Golf & Safari Resort

      This 907 yard par 3 is in South Africa.   The green is shaped like the African continent and completely surrounded by a sea of sand.   You hit off a cliff over 1,400 feet above the hole and it takes 26 seconds for your ball to land.  You have to take a helicopter to get to the hole.  They post spotters around the green to let you know where your ball lands because you can't possibly see it.

      Padraig Harrington is the only person to ever par it.   He did it in a playoff after a recent tournament there. It is the 19th-hole and only used for playoffs.

      Watch him do it--with a 'sandie' no less.


      If you have any interesting golf stuff please send it to us.  Your road to fame and fortune!   Well maybe not fortune, but certainly everyone's thanks.   And we'll reach into our grab bag of goodies; one will be on its way to you!   There is some neat stuff in the grab bag anxiously waiting to be sent to you.

      Otherwise it's going to be more, "Did you hear the joke about the priest, rabbi and Saint Peter ... "

      Let me hear from you!

      Thanks, Don Horton
