My dear friend Biggie died late in 2023…WAY too soon. Amongst his many wonderful qualities and passions, Eric was an avid golfer. At his service, his wife Cari passed out “Biggie” inscribed Titleist ProV1 balls (he too played ProV1) - such a heartfelt gesture. I decided to save mine for some special golf whenever that might be. My Women's Club Championships at Fossil Trace and CommonGround golf courses here in Colorado were a good choice.
Biggie and I played together the whole way. Each time I looked down at the Biggie ball, he stared up at me, repeating "one shot at a time." During these events, I had many great holes, landing Biggie within a foot of a par 3 pin, scoring a personal best 82, and then getting my 1st Hole-in-One on August 15th at Fossil Trace #16 (Par 3, 122 yards with a 7 iron)... Day 2 of our Fossil Trace Women's Club Championship!
I've long played ProV1s and have many great memories along the way. Even so, I'll always remember this awesome run of golf with my Titleist "Biggie" Pro V1s. My hole-in-one took 30+ years, a long time coming... For me, this was inspiration and serendipity at its best and well worth the wait!
