A truly magnificent miniature golf shot


I just thought that I would inform you all about my amazing miniature golfing wife. So, we went to a place called golf-land over the weekend for our date, which was actually really fun. The two of us have to be really careful about competing in anything...cause we get wicked ticked if we lose...thus...why one will always be in complete distress. I contemplated not keeping score because my miniature golf skills were slightly more advanced than those posessed by my beloved wife. Anyways, we got to the 6th hole (see attached drawing) and it was indeed filled with all manner of trickery. You had to putt it up this 20 foot runway, which sloped upward, and at a slight angle so as to hit it just perfect enough to make the ball go past a certain point. If you hit it too hard, it would go into this downward sloping hill area, into a hole, and get spit out far from the hole in a different area. If you hit it perfectly (yeah right, they make it impossible) then it would go up and barely past the little wall and roll down towards the hole. The 6th hole had a wooden shack for scenery behind the sloping up area. Well, Lauren stepped up to it and did not putt...she flippin driving range destroyed that ball so hard that it hit the wooden shack, ricoched back at her and I at about 200mph, nearly inflicting decapitation, hit a metal pole about 10 feet behind us, ricoched back the other way and landed right next to the hole. Truly, a magnificent shot.
