I was literally about 2 rolls away from one.

I took a pic of the ball, the hole, and the pitch mark it made on the green w/ my cell phone.

It's been my wallpaper on my cell phone ever since.

Everytime I use it, I get reminded of how close I came.

Zero.

I've had a few hole-outs from the fairway - including two in consecutive rounds last summer - but never from the tee. I've mashed the hole a few times (~ an inch from landing in the cup on the fly) but I can't even say how many those resulted in a 2. Oh well, life goes on.

2 (11 years between aces)

First Ace:
145 Yard 2nd Hole at Montrose, CO Golf Club. Hit a solid wedge right into the sun, didn't see anything but thought I hit it well. Got up to the green, saw a huge pitch mark two feet behind the hole, ball was sitting in it. Bing!

Second Ace
197 Yard 17th Hole At Prairieview Golf Club, Byron IL. Slightly elevated green, hit 6 iron and it was all over the stick. Didn't see it go in but the people on the 18th above the hole saw the hole thing. They started hollering. It was pretty cool. Birdied 18 to beat my friend by one stroke that day.

Best shot I've ever seen though? My friends double eagle on a par 5. I don't have any of those, not really even close.

None, and I've resigned myself to the fact it will never happen. Much easier that way LOL

I have had none!!! I have had one hit the bottom of the hole and bounce out as well as a few lip outs. To compound my frustrations on this, I have two double eagles to my credit on par 5s. One from 214 and one from 170.

None, but I've been ridiculously close to one. It was on our short par 3, on the last, I took an 8 iron. I thought I'd hit it awful, cos it went very, very low, and ended up rolling along the floor before it got to the green. Next thing I know, it's sitting on the lip. I could literally have blown it, and it would've gone down. So annoying!

I've had two, both were last season. The first was a 210 slightly downhill 5 iron. I was playing as a single and caught up to a threesome on that hole, so atleast I had witnesses. The second was during our Sunday morning bestball, 145 9 iron. It won me a couple hundred dollars cash and some proshop credit.

I have been golfing for 16 years and I haven't had one yet. I have come about as close as FX's avatar pic. It was heart breaking.

I've had 2, hence my name. First was playing a par 3 course by myself. Short hole, only 102 yards and one hopped it in with a gap wedge. Luckily a couple on the next tee saw it go in so I had a witness and could get it in the local paper. Second one was during a demonstration where I was a counselor at a golf camp. The pro was going over swing plane on a par 3 and was using me as a subject. He asked me to hit one to demonstrate and I did, and aced it 140 yards with a 9 iron. Needless to say the kids were super impressed and it was fun pretending like I did that all the time.

When I was on my high school team I played against a guy that aced the 2 par threes that we played. It was crazy! Needless to say, he beat me, by 3 shots. Other than that I've witnessed two others in my life, one bounced out of the woods and rolled in and the other was just a perfect two bounce then check and in the hole.

Madness! It's obviously very rare to get 2 hole-in-ones in a lifetime from this thread...and that guy got 2 in a round?!

    • I am a huge numbers guy and if a number can be applied to something, I want to know what it is.  Even in golf, I will pace off short chips as I have a 10 yard, 20 yard, and 30 yard shot whereas I take the club back a certain distance for each.  I have heard the comparison to basketball players that they do not know their exact distance to the basket, they just use their eye sight and adjust which I know a lot of golfers do as well when within a certain distance to the pin.  My question is, what is that distance for you?  I was at the range today and was hitting wayward  balls to a flag that I had no idea what it's exact distance was, I estimate that I was at times as close as 40 yards and as far away as 70 yards.  I was amazed at how accurate I was having not known the distance to the flag.  Temps me to not use my range finder within say 70 yards and go by look and feel.  What say you?
    • Well, it was yesterday but I shot an 88 at Lake Park GC in Lewisville, TX.
    • PXG Orlando, other locations I'm sure its the same, offers a full bag fitting for 25 bucks which is applied to purchase if you are a veteran or active duty, etc. Unfortunately I like my Titleist's.
    • Latest rumor is Clarkson, May and Hammond will have a new team on LIV.  
    • That's not just sandbagging, that's cheating. Under Rule 3.3 for posting most likely scores, for example if there was a 2 foot putt for par, one can only take one extra stroke from what they lie, meaning par in that instance, not bogey. I didn't check the other instances but you can.
