It was a good Father’s Day golf outing for Yorkton’s Dick DeRyk.
DeRyk was on a round at Deer Park Golf Course when his drive on the new eighth hole on the course not only found the green, but ended up in the cup for a hole-in-one, the first on the hole that only opened a week ago.
There was an interesting twist to the ace, noted DeRyk. The last hole-in-one on the old eighth hole was two weeks ago by Juanita Brown. Her husband Lorne witnessed it.
Lorne was also playing with DeRyk Sunday morning, so he saw the last one on the old hole and the first one on the new hole.
“This was my third (ace), lifetime,” noted DeRyk.
The first one was 40-years ago at Deer Park.
The second one came last year at a course in Kelowna, B.C.
Now the ace Sunday, makes it two straight years with a shot for DeRyk to tell friends about.
