So I was watching the GC and playing lessons from the pros with Bubba.  Towards the end he was talking with Johnny Damon about how he has never had an ACE in his whole life, but his caddi and wife both have.

So I was thinking I would start this for everone to share how long they have been playing and still do not have an ACE

If you have had a hole in one how long did it take you?

Me 15 years and no ACE.....yet

p.s I looked to see if there was another thread like this and never found one.

Been playing off and on for 12 years.  Finally getting serious this year.  Only been close one time the ball rolled right by the cup and finished 2 feet passed.  Par 3 about 160 10 feet down hill, man... I can still see it.

No hole in one, but last year, in consecutive rounds of golf, I holed out for eagle on par 4s.

That's shocks me that a tour player never had one--with all the golf he's played and that he's probably hitting a sand wedge to most par 3's.  Guess I'm in good company

Been playing almost 25 years (since I was 10) and never had one - I also never expect to have one, which makes it easier to deal with!

Never!! came close a few times. one was at an short par 4 (271 yards). hit 3 wood and came within 3 feet for the hole in one. of course, I missed my dang putt and made a birdie instead. I've hit the flagstick once on a 110 yard par 3. and just last week friday, on a par 3, I hit into the water on the tee and hit again from the tee box and stuck it within a foot. so, almost saved par. other than that, none. my dad who plays off and on (twice a year) has had 2. witnessed 1 of them. very exciting.

golf is a lot like life. the more you enjoy it, the better off you are. a3_biggrin.gif

I just had my first par on a par 4, so it is going to be awhile before I start talking about aces lol.

New to the game, so you gotta start somewhere!

Playing on and off again for 30 years with no aces... Numerous "flaggies" (tee shot inside the length of the flag pole) but nothing really really close.  Maybe this year?

I have been playing a long time, on seriously the last few years, and have never had an ace.  I have had a couple of eagles on par 4 holes, but alas, never a 1 on a par 3.

Been playing on and off since I was a kid, and never had an ace.  Been close a few times, but never made it.  Had two REALLY close calls last year, on the same hole.  The only two times I played the course all year.  Maybe I should've played it more and I would've found the hole.

    • I get kidney stones. So 100 oz of water every day. Some nights I drink 32oz between midnight and 6 Am. Which means I dont sleep much.
    • 46 (9 over) Short game and putts were awful!
    • 46+40 for an 86. I just need to play 9 holes on the range before each round. 🤣🤣🤣
    • I don’t measure my intake either. I generally have a black coffee, a bottle of soda, some sweet tea at home, and anything in between is water. An ice cold bottle of water is one of my favorite things. It feels like an immediate refresher for my body. I’ll admit that I need to drink a little more though. 
    • For such a nice membership, there have been some bad incidents in the past few years.  We had someone voted out a couple of years ago over something he did and he harassed the board members for three months until he moved out of the area.   Generally they’ve tried to do things like tournament handicaps and identify certain people who they know should be lower and adjust it somehow.  I can understand not wanting to go thru something like the guy who was voted out again i emailed the pro who forwarded it to the handicap committee.  They are going to see what can be done.  I walked someone thru what happened and they are going to nudge him to post the score from the match and see what he does.  Since he didn’t put anything in the electronic scoring past 13, based on how he played 14 and 15 plus having to take bogey on 16-18 for after he left, he should post 83.  We’ll see if it’s even higher,   Since he was really even thru 13, then doubled 14 and parred 15 my guess is he really shot 75 being generous and giving him 2 pars and a bogey on the three holes he didn’t play.    i shot 88, getting 16 shots for my course handicap which is net even and I lost on 13.  We do brackets where handicaps should be within 4-5 of each other.  Most matches only have 1-2 shots as a difference between players  neither of us posted the score yet.  There was something in the match play rules about whether or not to post your score.  I couldn’t remember if we were supposed to or not.  I don’t think he was going to post that, because even with his inflated score it would be the lowest score in his recent 20. Lucky I didn’t because they want to see what he does post and they don’t want me posting so he can try to calibrate his score.
