Rocky Start Foundation Golfer Dave Shutts in Charitable Mood
Rocky Start Foundation Golfer Dave Shutts in Charitable Mood
The prize
was earned by Dave Shutts, claimed temporarily by some and permanently by
one.
Shutts, who lives in Yorba Linda, got a hole-in-one during the
Rocky Start Foundation's charity golf tournament on Sept. 25 at Black
Gold Golf Club in Yorba Linda.
The tournament raised $55,000 for
University Children's Hospital at the UCI Medical Center. Shutts walked
away with an award nearly as valuable.
His prize for sinking the
ace at the 10th hole - from 154 yards with an 8-iron - was a new Mercedes
Benz C-240, valued at about $37,000.
"I was in absolute shock,"
Shutts said. "I've played 24 years, and it is the first shot that went
where I wanted it to go."
The ball hit about 3 feet in front of the
hole, bounced once and rolled into the cup as Shutts and his playing
partners watched.
While Shutts stood in disbelief, his three
partners celebrated wildly, and Shutts thought he knew why.
"Before
we hit, somebody said, 'If one of us makes it, we'll split it'" he
said. "I was absolutely ready to sell it and split the money."
The
other members said the prize was Shutts', and he went home to tell his
wife, Monica, who promptly took ownership of the car.
"I think I
will get to drive it to get it washed and the oil changed." Shutts said.
"I gave her the car."
The couple is celebrating their 21st wedding
anniversary Oct. 21 and the car made for an early present.
But
Shutts is planning on getting a little more mileage out of it.
"I
am going to milk this for all it's worth," he said, laughing. "She asked
me to clean the garage last weekend and I ultimately did it, but I was
like, 'Honey, you're going to make me clean the garage? I just won you a
Mercedes.'"
