Kurt Frederick shoots hole-in-one at Town House course
Nine year old Kurt Frederick, son of Mr and Mrs Dick Frederick, achieved a hole-in-one on the 100 yard par three at the Town House course Sunday. It came on his 24th lifetime tee shot as he borrowed a three wood from his parents for the feat. He will be a grant Woodschool fourth grader this year. He said he felt excited and knew little about how rare the achievement is. He used only a wood or an iron in the momentous shot.
