The president's motorcade arrived at the exclusive Mid Pacific Country Club for a round of his favorite sport.

Members are said to pay around $16,500 a year to set foot on the high-end course by the Koolau Mountains, according to local reports.

Onlookers lined a nearby public street to try to see the president, his high school pals Greg Orme and Bobby Titcomb, and another close friend Darrell Harrington - but security kept the onlookers away from the 18th green.

Obama attempted a chip shot of about 40 feet and made it into the hole. He reacted by dropping his wedge and raising his hat and arms into the air.

He then pointed his finger at the media and tipped his hat and waved toward the gallery watching him from the road. Obama then walked over and high-fived his playing partner, Darrell Harrington.

Garden: The home has element of an Asian inspired garden such as smooth stones and a tiny bridge. Although some expenses - including the rent - are paid for privately, the emergency personnel and daily expenses of Obama's security detail are all publicly-funded
