It was implied. But yes. It could have been one of proudest athletic achievements. I sent my dad, recently off knee surgery thru the gates first with his chair (as you are only allowed one per person) then I followed. I told him to get thru the gates, veer left, and hold his chair straight out right. I grabbed it like earl Campbell taking a handoff and then had one masters chair in each hand swinging them rhythmically as my hips bumped and I picked up speed, reaching roughly 6.2 mph, weaving in and out of the masses, never letting both feet leave the ground at the same time. I felt like homer in this gif with the putters. https://m.imgur.com/gallery/4Sx25Wl Once I reached the tee, I triumphantly planted my chairs in the last 2 spot available and 12 mins later my dad arrived. I’ll never forget it

Love how 2 posts in, its no longer best score, but best round.
Best score: tied at 74 32 times. Once 3 days before my wedding at cowboys golf club. Was actually -2 through 12 when I realized what was happening and then promptly double bogeyed.
Matched it a year ago at my old club on a friday playing by myself and even bogeyed 18.
Best Round: First time playing pebble beach with my dad. Think I shot a 91 but birdied 6 and hit an unreal shot into the green on 18 that I will never forget. Super special walk with my hero and Ill never forget it. We got LIT up after the round together in the tap room and smoked cigars by the fire pits at spanish bay until late that evening. Special trip.
God I love golf.
Got my index down from 11.1 to 7.8 in 4 months and its still going lower. Playing a lot. Life is good. Beating DDD Dad at home. he beats me at his home. pretty even matches these days.
Ill be there Thursday and Friday. Can’t wait. Will be my second trip.
In 2014 was front row for the ceromonial tee shot. I got there an hour before gates opened. Racewalked past about 300 People that we’re ahead of me until I reached a line of guards arm and arm to lead you down through the path to the entry to the course by the merch building at first fairway. You have to strategically position yourself “inside” (left) for the wide turn left up to first tee then jockey yourself to the right for the next “inside” (right) turn right around behind the first tee to the viewing area. All of the members and their guests will have already staked our prime spots but there will be a few places to plop your chairs. I was literally the first one there and I got the last 2 seats for me and my dad.
Will post pic next
