Anatomy of a streak

Today I set a personal record with 10 consecutive greens-in-regulation at The Meadows in Blue Island. The streak started at the 4th hole and lasted thru the 13th hole, a time stretch of over 2 hours. Here is a breakdown of each shot of this incredible achievement.

Hole 4- 381 yd. par 4: Drive 261 yds in fairway, 8-iron to green, 2 putts.
Hole 5- 172 yd. par 3: 5-iron on green, 2 putts.
Hole 6- 396 yd. par 4: Drive left 251 yds, 6-iron to green, 2 putts.
Hole 7- 334 yd. par 4: Drive right 284 yds, pitching wedge half-swing on green, 2 putts.
Hole 8- 530 yd. par 5: Drive in fairway, 3-wood left rough to 120 yds, 9-iron on green, 3 putts.
Hole 9- 175 yd. par 3: 5-iron on green, 2 putts.
Hole 10- 495 yd. par 5: Drive 290 yds in fairway, 5-wood faded right 30 yds off green pin-high, pitching wedge on green, 2 putts.
Hole 11- 455 yd. par 4: Drive left 255 yds in rough, 5-wood on green, 3 putts.
Hole 12- 420 yd. par 4: Drive left 220 yds, 3-wood into wind on green, 2 putts.
Hole 13- 200 yd. par 3: 5-wood faded on green, 2 putts.

Then on 14 I had an 8-iron 130 yds to the green and faded it right off the green.
Also only used 1 ball thru whole round.
