Man Shoots Perfect Round of Putt-Putt Golf

Posted by samzenpus on from the so-he's-got-that-going-for-him-which-is-nice dept.

netbuzz writes "Rick Baird, a 53-year-old IT manager from North Carolina, recently accomplished a feat seen only twice in half a century and not once since 1979: a perfect round of Putt-Putt golf — 18 holes, 18 shots. He tells Network World: 'When I got ready to play 18 everybody was still gathering around to watch. I had to back off once since people were moving and I did not want there to be any distractions, and I needed a deep breath to calm down.'"

    Apparently there are tournaments with regulation courses. Who knew?

    Tiger Woods was excited to try out this course, until he found out it was Putt Putt and not Butt Butt.
