Was playing at the UBC golf course up in Vancouver.. finished up and was getting a drink and saw the 'hole in 1' board..

there was one guy who got two spots, highlighted in red.. thought - oh cool he got two aces.. that's amazing.

Look closer, and holy @#$!  The two came on the same day, the two par 3s on the front 9..  wow..

How rare is that? it seems to be essentially "impossible".. but wanted to see others experiences..

Odds of 67 million to 1.

Should have bought a lottery ticket.

A local guy In Albany got 3 in one month, and a 14 year old got one with his first swing ever on a golf course. http://www.timesunion.com/sports/article/Gish-McCormick-Carroll-defy-golfing-odds-4699745.php

I read about something similar to this is the latest Golf Digest or Golf Magazine. It was one of those things where they ask a bunch of different questions and get the short answers, going for a couple pages like that. I think it was the Bethpage Black head pro (if I remember the correct article) where he got his first hole in one, then hit another one right after after that wrapped in the flag and dropped in. At least that's what he said for the article.

We had a guy who made 2 aces in one of our monthly MGA tournaments this year.  As stated previously, the odds are 1 in 67million.  He was kinda funny about it.  Said it was the only way he could break 80.

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      I think part of it is there hasn't been enough conclusive studies specific to golf regarding block studies. Maybe the full swing, you can't study it because it is too complicated and to some degree it will fall into variable or random.

      Driver and 3W Swing Weight Changes, Make Sense?

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Going one step stiffer in the golf shaft, of the same make and model will have minor impact on the launch conditions. It can matter, it is a way to dial in some launch conditions if you are a few hundred RPM off or the angle isn't there. Same with moving weights around. A clubhead weights 200-220 grams. You are shifting a fraction of that to move the CG slightly. It can matter, again its more about fine tuning. As for grip size, this is more personal preference. Grip size doesn't have any impact on the swing out of personal preference.  You are going to spend hundreds of dollars for fine tuning. Which if you want, go for it. I am not sure what your level of play is, or what your goals in golf are.  In the end, the golf swing matters more than the equipment. If you want to go to that level of detail, go find a good golf club fitter. ChatGPT is going to surface scan reddit, golfwrx, and other popular websites for the answers. Basically, it is all opinionated gibberish at this point.

      Driver and 3W Swing Weight Changes, Make Sense?

      By boogielicious · Posted

      Well the first advice I would give is to look at your swing. If you are swing out to in, it may be difficult to fix your misses with club adjustments. They would only be a bandaid. I use midsize grips because I have long fingers and I feel I have more control with them. I also have tinkered with shaft length and swing weight. But I know when I miss it’s because my swing was off.
