A hole in one is an eagle???

Actually as a matter of fact, on a par 3. it is.

And that's probably where it happens the most...

Well technically yes, but I have never said, "I made an eagle one time", I say "I had a hole in one", or "I had an Ace!!", but you wouldn't understand

And that's probably where it happens the most...

I doubt it, I am sure there way more eagles on par 5's than par 3's.

I had one on a par 3 110 yards out, hit a half pitching wedge. Pretty exciting considering it came within 6 months of picking up the game of golf. Luckily I had a buddy come out with me that morning, or else no one would believe me as we got paired up with another twosome.

To those who have gotten a hole in one, do you frame the ball or do something special with it? If you tell the people in the proshop, will they do anything special or not?

You can buy a shadow box, they make all types or you can get a custom made to hold the ball, the scorecard, certificate, or whatever else you want to frame(tee, glove, socks

). In Virginia, the VSGA will give you a certificate for it, you have to have 2 witnesses and the Pro at the course sign for it. The Pro at the course took my name down, congratulated me and a few days later it was in the newspaper in the fine print of the local "other" sports news.

At the course I play most often, you get your name up on their "wall of Aces."

Man, would I like to see my name up there! Maybe this is my year!!!

      That was a good watch. When I started working on pelvis in the backswing. I thought, this sounds contradictory to those leg straightening threads on the site. Erik has already done a correction. Then the last lesson we went more down the route of feeling the right knee gains flex. It doesn’t, but the feeling keeps my knee position in a good range. Also, I just realized how much extra work my right hip needed to do to stabilize the body with the proper weight shift. Those glute and hip stabilizers got worked. 🤣 I wish this evolution in the golf instruction happened 20 years ago! 😭

      Athletic Motion Golf Video Featuring Our Own Erik Barzeski

      The first issue Erik spoke about is something we worked on for my swing during both GEARS sessions. GEARS was showing my pelvis center moving towards the ball during the back swing. I wasn’t the 4” guy though! This forced me to correct on the downswing to give myself space. My hip rotation was to high as well. We corrected it by first getting the weight off my heels in my stance and getting my posture correct. Then the feel was shifting back into my right hip at a 45 degree angle. This kept my pelvis center from moving towards the ball at the start of the backswing. I also didn’t sway back as much as I felt I did because of the angle I was shifting. Feel Ain’t Real. The cool thing about GEARS is as you work on something you can see the exact (Real) change happening. On video, it is much harder to spot this issue because of the 2D nature of filming. But I know what to look for now. Sadly, I was hurt all last year and most of this year so I really haven’t been able to work on it much. I did do a lot of backswing work though.
