I got my first Ace today. 9 iron 135 out. Saw it drop in the cup. Coolest thing ever for me on the course. I jumped up and down and high-fived my who group. Since it was a outing I had to buy drinks for 144 players.... Luckily there was a 500$ pot for a hole in one....still can't believe it, but golfing for 25 years!!!

    Nice!!!

    I've done it once on a par 3 about 10 years ago. Every time I play now, I'm chasing that same feeling. Congrats!

    My dad did it once, and it just happened to be the right hole - like, the special hole where you get something if you get a hole in one in it, sponsored by Coca-Cola. He won a solid gold putter, and a pile of shitty Coke merch.

    Topped a ball once...went maybe 10 feet...a little past the lady tee. Was offered the chance for a redo. Declined out of frustration. Went up hit the ball...straight into the hole. Not a hole in one, but close?

    I got to tell ya, its sure is a great feeling. Still buzzing about it

    Congrats. I've had a couple stop less than four inches from the hole and even eagled a par 4 from 145 yards out. That was a great feeling but still chasing an ace here.

    Only hole in one I ever got was in putt putt golf.. But it WAS a million dollar shot. Hit the ball, it hit the curb, bounced onto some rocks, bounced over a fence, and landed in the hole of the course next to the one we were playing! Lol

    Closest for me was in Nantucket , MA par 4 348 yards. I hit a driver off the tee on a hill, then 3 wood off the short rough. To just off the green, maybe 60 feet then chipped in straight in on a downhill. It was a birdie but it felt like a one in hole.

    It was my first ever playing golf and my partners were surprised at how well I could play. You watch it enough and anyone can learn the game.

    Same. I have at least 5 that were within a foot.

    Someone mentioned eagling a par 4. I have made a shot from about 150 on a par 4 too, however I chuncked my second shot and made bird from 150 :lol:

    The ball wanted to go back home. Balls belong in holes. Its nature.

    I witnessed a hole in one at a chip and putt course near my house. the hole was kinda on a hill and I went first, overshot the hole and decided to go look for it while my friends played. One of them hit the ball in the hole and the funniest/best part was he didn't even see cause it was on the hill, but I did. :lol: He was kinda pissed off that he didn't even see it go in.

    Yeah, I've been close to eagle-ing a bunch of times too. Still hasn't happened.
    This has happened twice....TWICE!
    Both par 5s (different holes).
    First time, I hit a drive about 300 straight down the fairway, it cleared a hill and rolled a bit. Second shot (3 iron) went about 210 yards...was 4 feet from the cup. Ended up 3 putting it! :fp: lol!
    The second time I was within 2 feet of the cup and two putted it. Ugh!

    I think I get so excited with the idea of it that it totally screws up my putting.

    Damn game!

    I hear that! I've turned a couple eagle chances into par the same way. Only time I eagled a par 5 was a forty yard shot I dug out of deep rough. Complete luck.

    My only eagle didn't come from a putt either. Not 40 yards, chip from just off

    Once, when I first started playing, I hit the cart path on a short par four and the ball ended up on the green. Four putted for bogey.
