It all comes down to putting in the end. Brian and Aaron found themselves in the most recent episode of The Big Break Prince Edward Island. Brian and Aaron had teamed up in the flop wall challenge. As part of that challenge, the losing team would go to elimination and compete against each other. Aaron’s poor execution put them in the elimination as he hit the flop wall on his first attempt and then failed to sink a 4-5 foot putt.

The elimination consisted of three holes of golf and each competitor got to choose one hole. Aaron chose a 358 yard par 4 that required a drive over water with a carry of 245 yards to clear the water. Brian chose a par 5. The competitors finished up on the downhill #18.

Aaron, of course, believed that Brian couldn’t carry the water on the 14th hole. Brian got up and ripped one over the water easily. In fact, he probably hit it around 270. I was amazed as he managed to hit three only around 215 in the driving grid challenge earlier. Aaron lost his drive right but managed to still have a shot from about 82 yards. He stuck that about 6 feet from the pin. This must have flustered Brian because he crushed his short approach to the back of the green and three putted for bogey. Aaron had a chance to take a 2 shot lead after one hole but missed his short putt.

Aaron teed off first on the next hole and, as seems to be customary on this show, lost his drive in the woods way left. Despite his claims of using strategy, Brian blindly stepped up to the tee with a driver as well and promptly lost his drive in the woods to the right. What are these idiots thinking? Take a three wood and hit it down the middle.

Aaron had no shot and left his second in the woods and finally managed to chip out on his third. Brian was able to advance his shot out of the woods and down the fairway for a simple approach of less than 100 yards. Aaron had just over 150 left for his fourth shot. He hit it way short and had a 35+ foot uphill putt for par. The door was wide open for Brian who also hit his short. Instead of rolling back down the hill, Brian’s ball checked and stopped. He had about 15 feet for birdie.

Aaron then hit a great putt for a tap in bogey. He went to tap in and missed that putt as well and finished with a double bogey.

So here we are, if Brian makes the birdie he goes to the final hole with a two shot lead. If he makes par, he still has a one shot advantage. His birdie putt lips out and he has 3-4 feet for par. What does he do? He blows the par putt and settles for bogey. They go into the last hole tied.

On 18, the Golf Channel shows Aaron teeing off first which may have been the result of some editing. Brian had the honor. Aaron finally rips a huge drive down the middle. Brian flares his out to the right and is left with 150+ into the green.

Here we go again. Brian rips his approach over the green and into the back bunker. He gets a fried egg lie on a downhill slope to a green that runs away from him.

Door wide open for Aaron who slams the door on his hand as he cranks his to the back of the green. Brian makes a great escape out of the bunker but is left with a long putt for par. He runs it by the hole and taps in for bogey. Aaron finally exhibits some putting skill and two putts for the win.

It was a poor exhibition of golf. Are these guys any good at all?
