To see is to believe, but how can an 85-year old blind man confirm what his friends saw? Robert Dunham is still having a hard time believing what his fellow golfers told him; despite his disability and age, he did a hole in one!

According to CityNews.ca, Dunham, legally blind at 85, was playing golf late last week in his hometown of Green Valley, Arizona, when he did the extraordinary feat on a three-par course.

"Because he has no vision, Dunham's assistant lined up the ball for him on a tee, gave him a 9-iron and told him to take a whack. And take it he did. The longtime golfer positioned himself before the ball, swung the club and made contact. The small orb flew through the air, landed softly on the green, took a small hop and rolled straight into the cup," CityNews.ca reported.

Dunham, a former executive at Honeywell, started to lose his eye sight some ten years ago. He just recently enlisted in the U.S. Veteran's Administration's golf program.

"I thought they were kidding me. I told them, 'You guys better not be pulling my leg'," CityNews.ca quoted Dunham as saying.
