The Challenge Hole was the most exciting prize of the day.

The golfers purchased tickets for these prizes then, if they got their ball on the green they doubled their tickets. The tickets were tossed and turned then from the very bottom of the bucket came Josh Goeckner’s ticket and he chose the TV. The tickets were again tossed and turned and the second ticket was drawn. Again, Josh Goeckner had the winning ticket and also got the recliner.
