I just made my second hole in one this year.
150 yard uphill par 3. hit a 7 iron.
didn't get to see this one go in, but was still a surreal experience.
The best part of the day for me was finishing with my best score to date. (2 over.) Only to top that today by following it up with an even par.
Our season will be ending any day now, I couldn't be happier ending the season this way.

Cheers!

Well done!

I've never hit a hole in one although i've only been playing for 3 years. My friend made a hole in one on a 160metre (about 180 yards) par 3, it was in a medal round and the pin was on a downslope behind a bunker He was the 2nd junior to hit a hole in one in the time ur current pro has been working at our course

2nd Hole in One? I have never had one. Personally, I would rather break 70then get a hole in one, but thats just me...

Eventually, I'll get the hint and stop advertising, which is against the rules.

Awards, Achievements, and Accolades

i had a hole in one last week!! i hit 9 iron to a 140 yrd green and saw/ heard it hit the pin and go in the hole! finished with even par that day
the funny thing is that i could actually hear it land in the hole.
Today i pitched in from about 40 yards as well, still only shot a 39


The closest I have come to a hole in one was skulling the ball and reaming it off the flag pole, only to find my ball ~20 feet away from the pin. (possibly a 9 iron from 143 yards out to withing 2 feet of the pin counts)

Anyway congrats.

Thanks to all!

Making the shot was great, Shooting my best score to date then following up the next day with an even better score was by far what had me on cloud 9! As for "How to hit one?" I was just glad to hit the green!

Congratulations,

You fly, I buy!


Congrats! This summer I thinned a PW on a par 3 right into the water. I teed up my second ball and hit a beauty shot that stopped and started back to the hole. It lipped out and ended up about 6 inches away. I was really happy it didn't get in as it wouldn't count as a hole-in-one and I was playing alone (112 deg, mid-day in Florida) with no witnesses anyway! I am really happy to hear about hole-in-one shots though. Again, congrats!

Congrats! What was the damage on the bar tab? I can only imagine how bad it must have been on your second ace of the year though I bet it was worth it. Hopefully you'll get a few more chances to play before the season ends.

Congratulations!!

I had my only one last year, and then started doing some research. If I am not badly mistaken it is a one in 12000 shot. That means you are bringing the odds down with your two!!

    • So I am aware that "the committee is allowed to set its own standards of player conduct in a code of conduct adopted as a local rule" (rule 1.2b) I also understand that there are some aspects that are allowed to be entered, and some that are not allowed.  My question specifically is: In which form does this code of conduct need to be available? Is it enough for someone to say "that's part of our code of conduct", or is it a requirement, that the code of conduct is in written form? Also, is there a need that the local rule points to the code of conduct in any way?   For better understanding: I'm playing competition and the next course that we play has a "no smoking policy". I don't have a problem with it, as I don't smoke anyway, but one of my team-mates does, and someone told him "You'll get disqualified if you smoke on the course".   Now I have looked at their local rules and there is no reference to a "code of conduct". I'm not sure if they even have an official "code of conduct" that states that smoking is not allowed.   I fully agree that he SHOULD respect this request from the club, but I am wondering if the club would really be allowed to DQ this player for this, if it's not properly documented in their local rules/code of conduct?  This is an official national amateur tournament, so not just something organized by a club for its members.
    • A few months back I purchased the following swing aid on Amazon ($130). It is solidly made of steel and heavy and stable in use. I use it both at the range and at home. Swing Plate Dual PRO by Jamie Brittain - Swing Analyzer Aid - Fits Standard 8mm Alignment Rod Sticks - Teaching Swing Plane Perfector - Indoor/Outdoor Golfing Practice. This winter I set a goal for myself to improve my backswing/downswing to be more consistent and on plane. I had a two way miss with my approach shots this past golf season. I have a hitting set-up in my garage, but I needed something to provide feedback while swinging the club. I came across the Swing Plate while browsing YouTube.   I set it up with the correct angles for my 8 iron. I started out with just the back rod in place, which prevents me from getting too far inside on the backswing. Started out slow and as I got comfortable increased my swing speed. Now I also came across a YouTube video on building a better backswing and getting more width in the backswing and added that to my practice. That video is here:    This video is a bit wordy since you are basically a fly on the wall as Ian gets a lesson. It took a few replays to be able to get the substance of the instruction. It was well worth the effort. Over the last two weeks I have been able to get out on the course and gauge how successful my practice has been. Overall, my consistency with approach shots has improved greatly. Incorporating the added width in my swing has also added a few yards to all my clubs.  What has your off-season training been like?
