Holing a tee shot on a par 4, still annoyed!!

[hippyboy]

Today I had one of the greatest & most frustrating shots ever

On a par 4 I tee'd my ball & drove it, 286 yards absolutly dead straight, the green is not visible from the tee but the group in front walked back down the fairway & told me to stop looking for my ball cos it's in the hole.

I was over the moon, by far my best shot ever, so where was the problem? I was hitting my 3rd off the tee, I hit a hybrid 3 out of bounds with my 1st shot, then figured I had nothing to lose from hitting the driver (we were playing stableford)

Instead of it being my only ever hole in one & the fabled Albatross, it was merely a great shot & a birdie.

How frustrating!!!!

Good birdie. But, that's golf.

I'd throw a fit. That's pretty much one of the crappiest things I've ever heard happen.

The other was at a match I was playing in high school where a kid on the other team hit a ball into a tree. It came back and hit him square in the face and gave him a bloody nose and nasty bruise. He was then asessed a penalty for touching his ball when in play or something. They ended up losing the match by 2 strokes.

Well I guess thats how golf evens itself out. lol

I saw a guy do that on a par three this year. First shot in the water then he tee's it up and knocks his second shot in. Hole in one par. Nice birdy for you tho.

Hits him in the face and he get's a penalty.....damb thats hard core!

It was so gutting, for a few seconds I forgot about the first out of bounds shot until a guy I was playing with pointed it out.

The worst thing was the guys who were on the green putting when it went in were part of a society group of about 20 players, most of them I saw in the clubhouse afterwards came up to me saying "you're the hole in one guy" I had to explain to them that it wasn't

I think Fred Couples did something like this at TPC Sawgrass on the 'island green #17'. He hit one in the water, then he holed out from the drop zone for a PAR!

Hah, that is cool and sucks at the same time, mostly sucks. It's something you probably won't do ever again in your entire life, and you only get a birdie.

I was just gonna say that. It's somewhere in this video.

Sounds like the golf gods had a chuckle at your expense


nice birdie though, lol.

The reason I don`t have any hybrids! Just hit the driver!

[mcfc_nick]

serves you right haha, no1 rule: always go for a green in one on a drivable par 4 :)
