Nice pics, and grats on the hole in one! I've played since I was 8 or 9 and never had an ace. Those suckers can be very fickle. lol

It was my second one, first was six years ago. Shame I finished so poorly though, 4 bogeys in a row for a 75 (par 71) didn't sit too well.

Thanks .

And yeah, it pretty much all comes down to luck. Even if you hit a perfect shot it isn't going to go in 99% of the time.

Playing for 20+ years.... 3 handicap. Numerous eagles (including dunking one from 175 out), but never even sniffed an ace.

Witnessed two people get them; and my dad (probably a 12 index at his best) had 4.

Took me about 25 yrs of golfing to get one. 9 HCP. Lipped out one or two......but the one I got was with a mayor (in Germany - they call them Burgermeisters) and a good friend on a tough, long hole on a German course I lived on while in the Army. Enjoyable time back then.......got another one on an executive course w/ my dad, short PW shot. He was excited, but since the course wasn't a legit, full length course, I don't really count that one.

double eagle just now at the players .. they also called it an albatross ... iv`e seen two holes in one myself ... one was stuck against a wind blown flag till the player got to the green then the wind released and it fell in .. the other was a slam dunk ...
