so yesterday i went to play golf with mitchell and michael.. i love playing golf, but i dont get to do it as often as i would like.. so usually the first couple of holes are like warm-up holes, and then the rest of the holes are all played as equally bad as the first few..

anyways, i was the first to drive on hole one.. naturally when i hit the ball it went up really high and not that far out ahead of us.. yea my club face was way open for some reason, i know.. well, the ball decided to land on a group of sitting geese.. i heard the ball hit something solid, not the ground, and all the geese took of running towards a pond but one.. it just kinda jumped up and walked away slowly and sat back down.. so i went over there to get my ball and check on that bird, and as i get closer the goose limps away from and i notice that i broke its freaking leg.. and i broke it bad.. just writing all this down right now makes me feel horrible, but man i felt like crap.. i still do..  it was really hurt bad.. but michael did call the animal people and told them about the seriously injured bird and where it was.. so hopefully they made it out there..

so, we have got to move on.. im standing where my ball is (not too far from where i tee'ed off)  ive got a ways to go to the green, so i got my 3 or 4 iron out.. now there is another flock of geese chilling in the grass about 20 yards in front of me.. my goal is to ideally hit the ball up in the air and lay it down further ahead on the fairway.. of course my plan didnt work.. i hit the ball, its a shot too.. the ball stays about 10 inches off the ground and just goes straight and fast.. wouldnt ya know, that i hit that ball straight into one of the other geese chilling in front of me.. i mean i nailed it!  right in its side.. thankfully he didnt get hurt to my knowledge.. because they all just took off..

but yea, who does that? ive never seen or heard of anyone hitting a goose or any other bird for that matter with a golf ball.. and me, i do it twice in a row, seriously injuring the first one..

hopefully the two birds are fine.. i feel horrible..
