It’s a great feeling, I got one the other night…….through the windmill, off two boards and in!!!!

Way to go Roger!! It had to be the shirt! #FriendsofJim π¬
Great shot Roger. That’s a tough hole. Congratulations!
Congratulations Roger
My teammate at Richmond
Great Shot Roger
I know it’s a big deal to make a hole in one. When Al went to work for Wacovia they had a golf culture so he had to buy a set of clubs and go out and learn how to play golf so he could hang with the executives. The first time they went out he hit a hole in oneοΏΌ. On the same he hit somebody on the headοΏΌ. And that was his golfing career. Pretty much did everything you’re supposed to do
Yay!!! What a great feeling that must have been. Congratulations!
Wow!! Way to go Roger!
He also made a double eagle on the last hole of the section assistants in 1998 to sneak into a tie for second with myself and one other. Rick Schuler was the winner. Talk about taking $ out your pocket. All is forgiven but not forgotten ππΎβοΈπ
Yeah Roger! That’s great. Keith told me about it when he got home. Keep swinging ‘em.
Congrats Roger πΎππ Good things come to those that wait ππ»
Well done Roger!
