Museum London

10/17/2020

 
Picture
Walking to and from work, I admire and get inspired by the downtown architecture. This one was more of a challenge, it took me a 3 illustrations to get the one I really liked. This view with the overhead trees and the flower bed (with this large leafed plant...not sure what it is) framed the building so nicely.
"Museum London was established in 1940 and operated from the London Public Library until 1980 when the renowned Canadian architect Raymond Moriyama was commissioned to design its current home at the forks of the Thames River in downtown London, Ontario."
Just delivered the framed art to the SHOP at Museum London today. Working on the artwork for the greeting cards and post cards, to be printed in the next couple of weeks.

What are the Odds?

10/10/2020

 
​What are the odds of getting a hole-in-one or ace?  According to the National Hole-in-One Registry, the odds of the average golfer making a hole-in-one are 12,000 to 1. 
Some other interesting facts about hole in ones ...
  • Tour player making an ace: 3,000 to 1
  • Low-handicapper making an ace: 5,000 to 1
  • Average player making an ace: 12,000 to 1
  • Two players from the same foursome acing the same hole: 17 million to 1
  • Each course reports 10-15 hole in ones each year
  • A hole in one is scored once every 3,500 golf rounds
  • Only 1-2% of golfers score a hole in one during the year
  • Average years of playing is 24
  • Average handicap of golfers making hole in one is 14
  • Age group that makes the most holes in one is 50-59 (25%) and the next highest is 40-49 (24%)

Aces are rare, but the same golfer getting aces three years in a row, what are the chances? 2018 and 2019 aces were at Greenhills Golf Club in Lambeth, and most recent 2020, at Tangle Creek Golf and Country Club near Barrie. One golfer. Three aces. Three years. Congratulations to him!
