| Remarks | There were three of us on the 4th tee at Highland Golf Course. It first appeared to our northwest, lime green, flew from west to east for several seconds trailing sparkles, then "poof" it silently exploded. It was difficult to determine how far away it was- I first thought it was very low, only 2 or 3 times the height of the trees, but we later figured that was wrong. |
