210 yards out with a 4i on the #1 HC hole on the course for an eagle. Without a doubt, the best shot I will probably ever hit in my life.

Furthest i holed out from, number 13 Tam O'Shantern golf course, Canton, ohio. Sliced my drive right, i hit a nice 60 yard shot to an elevated green that went in for birdie.

Though my almost favorite was at a scramble, My dad hit one real close, about a foot, from 50 yards or so. He just tells me not to worry, I told him, well i can always hole it out. I then rattle the ball off the pin almost dunking it in for a eagle. Needless it rolled to about 5 feet and we took my dad's shot ;b

165 yards out with a 4i, wind into my face and it was raining.
My first eagle too, not too much skill involved. I just got really lucky.

I've only holed out at the grand distance of around 35 yds with my PW.... but that's just for now. I'm getting better and expect better things to happen.

104 yards with a PW. It was like slow motion, 3rd shot on a par 5, bounced once on the green and then straight in the hole for eagle. Helped me to shoot my lowest score at my home course (81).

My neighbor was the PGA Pro at Tammy up until this year. I play there all the time. Was it on the Hills course or the Dales course?

I've never had any significant hole out. The farthest I've holed out from is about 30 yards on a Par 5 on my home course. It's usually where I am in two but after a bad second shot I was laying three and it was for birdie.

Career Bests:

9 Holes--37 @ The Fairways at Arrowhead-Front(+2)

18 Holes--80 @ Carroll Meadows Golf Course(+9)

 

Home Course:

1) The Fairways at Arrowhead

2) Mayfair Country Club

180 yard or so approach shot on a par 4. The pin was tucked away in the back a bit uphill so I didn't exactly see where the ball landed but I knew it was a good shot and it had to be on the green. Didn't even know I holed it until I got the green, I spent a good 5 minutes looking around the green for my ball...no sign of the ball...figured I hit it long into the brushes behind the green until my friend found it in the hole!

another time, not as long, but watching a 100 yard wedge shot land right into the hole was something of amazement to witness. not a single bounce, ball just landed straight into the hole and stayed.

Dales course, the short part four up hill. I love that hole, always try to drive it. But this was back in highschool golf, i had a whicked slice and ended up near the short tea boxes on the par three near the road.

Man there greens are awesome this year, got to play there few weeks ago, been about 6 years. I love the dales, just a great course that rewards great shots.

Though i do like the hills as well, the par three's on the hills are tough man. hole 4, that downhill par three with the steep slope over the back, number 9, all up hill, i never hit that one. Hole 13 i think, is tough visually for me. Hole 17 is just wrong, especially when you have to play it fromt the back tees, 200 + yards with nasty bunkers.

Can't say Ive ever had a hole out, but ive left several shots from 100 yards peeking on the edge, and a few par 3s to about 2 feet. Ive chipped in dozens of times, but a hole out is hard......
A four foot putt to win never gets any less terrifying.

If I ever get happy with myself for finishing 12th or 15th, someone needs to put my clubs away and I'll take up tiddlywinks.

Haven't holed out from long range before but came very close - I hit a shot from about 220 yards a few weeks back which hit the pin and looks to have rolled down pin and nearly went in but the pin sprang back and popped the ball about 4 feet away - disappointing to see but a very satisfying birdy all the same.

The furthest I've holed out from was just a 30 yard pitch shot.

I was about 2" away from holing out a 322 yard drive earlier this year though.

    • I did not realize that, I was thinking a more traditional golf club.  
    • Thanks for the feedback. @StuM, we are a "club without real estate" so no facilities or pro. We have a membership of around 185 players and we only play together as a group at our tournaments, which are held at public access courses. A group of us setup the tournaments, collect the money and dole out the prizes.
    • In general, granting free relief anywhere on the course isn't recommended.  Similarly, when marking GUR, the VSGA and MAPGA generally don't mark areas that are well away from the intended playing lines, no matter how poor the conditions.  If you hit it far enough offline, you don't necessarily deserve free relief.  And you don't have to damage clubs, take unplayable relief, take the stroke, and drop the ball in a better spot.
    • If it's not broken don't fix it. If you want to add grooves to it just because of looks that's your choice of course. Grooves are cut into putter faces to reduce skid, the roll faced putter is designed to do the same thing. I'm no expert but it seems counter productive to add grooves to the roll face. Maybe you can have it sand-blasted or something to clean up the face. Take a look at Tigers putter, its beat to hell but he still uses it.     
    • I get trying to limit relief to the fairway, but how many roots do you typically find in the fairway? Our local rule allows for relief from roots & rocks anywhere on the course (that is in play). My home course has quite a few 100 year old oaks that separate the fairways. Lift and move the ball no closer to the hole. None of us want to damage clubs.
