Man creates mural out of golf tees

HUNTSVILLE, Utah (AP) - July 15, 2009

And he's got it on display in his Hunstville, Utah, basement.

He's created a 17-foot-by-8-and-a-half-foot mural with colored golf tees.

Holt's also a football fan and the picture is of the 2006 BYU vs. Utah game.

He had to drill more than 100,000 holes for the tees -- then drill them again because paint made the fit too tight.

The drilling alone took five weeks.

At first, Holt figured his golf tee mural would be a weekend project.

Even with a couple of helpers, it took 400 hours and about $15,000 to finish.
