Never had an ACE--Who is with me?

[Aquaguru]

So I was watching the GC and playing lessons from the pros with Bubba.  Towards the end he was talking with Johnny Damon about how he has never had an ACE in his whole life, but his caddi and wife both have.

So I was thinking I would start this for everone to share how long they have been playing and still do not have an ACE

If you have had a hole in one how long did it take you?

Me 15 years and no ACE.....yet

p.s I looked to see if there was another thread like this and never found one.

Playing 8 years and no ace. Not even any really close calls either.

[Zeph]

I've had a couple of close ones, but no ace yet.

[Double Bogey]

Been playing off and on for 12 years.  Finally getting serious this year.  Only been close one time the ball rolled right by the cup and finished 2 feet passed.  Par 3 about 160 10 feet down hill, man... I can still see it.

No hole in one, but last year, in consecutive rounds of golf, I holed out for eagle on par 4s.

[usholeinone]

I have never had a hole in one. I have been playing golf for over 25 years and I even work at a hole in one insurance company.

[Saxguy102]

No aces here.  I've holed out from 150+ 4 times in my 13 years of golf, but no aces, and honestly, nothing really close.

That's shocks me that a tour player never had one--with all the golf he's played and that he's probably hitting a sand wedge to most par 3's.  Guess I'm in good company

I was shocked when I heard that too.  I guess I'm not doing that bad then haha

I have had a couple close ones within a foot.

[Michael Phelps]

Been playing off and on for 10 years and have never had one.  Got within a foot once but that's it.

[chriskzoo]

Been playing almost 25 years (since I was 10) and never had one - I also never expect to have one, which makes it easier to deal with!

[Kieran123]

2 years no ace. Close twice...one REALLY close...like 2 inches....never holed out from the fairway either....I have a lot of years ahead though :D

[golf4fun12]

Never!! came close a few times. one was at an short par 4 (271 yards). hit 3 wood and came within 3 feet for the hole in one. of course, I missed my dang putt and made a birdie instead. I've hit the flagstick once on a 110 yard par 3. and just last week friday, on a par 3, I hit into the water on the tee and hit again from the tee box and stuck it within a foot. so, almost saved par. other than that, none. my dad who plays off and on (twice a year) has had 2. witnessed 1 of them. very exciting.

[huskylawyer]

I just had my first par on a par 4, so it is going to be awhile before I start talking about aces lol.

New to the game, so you gotta start somewhere!

[Huffy2k]

Playing on and off again for 30 years with no aces... Numerous "flaggies" (tee shot inside the length of the flag pole) but nothing really really close.  Maybe this year?

[ghalfaire]

I have been playing a long time, on seriously the last few years, and have never had an ace.  I have had a couple of eagles on par 4 holes, but alas, never a 1 on a par 3.

[GaijinGolfer]

Ive been playing for 12 years and still no ace.  Ive been very close quite a few times but it didnt drop.

[akw512]

Been playing on and off since I was a kid, and never had an ace.  Been close a few times, but never made it.  Had two REALLY close calls last year, on the same hole.  The only two times I played the course all year.  Maybe I should've played it more and I would've found the hole.
