Do you remember your first birdie/ eagle putt?

I had just started to play golf. I had made a couple pars up to this point but never a birdie. I put a 3 wood within 10 feet on a par 5. I was "I will make an eagle before my first ever birdie" I putted over the hole and missed the birdie and missed the par putt. I threw my putter into the water.  Then the next hole I made an 80 foot birdie putt with my friends putter

Yes, it would have been a hole in one, but the windmill swung around and hit my ball right before the hole.

I do remember it. short par 4 with a mounded green about 20 feet higher than the fairway. I skulled a wedge really low, it hit the top of the hill in front of the green taking the steam out and then popped up onto the green rolling to an inch of going in. tap in birdie for my first ever and nearly an eagle. with an absolutely terrible shote

I've never made an eagle.

I've never made a birdie.

Heck, I've never even pared a hole.

I played my second round of golf ever, yesterday. Still searching for that elusive birdie. I did make 2 pars through 9 holes, though.

Closest I've ever come to a hole in one of a par three.

Lightening and thunder was all over. I hit a solid shot towards the hole and when it hit the green, it started rolling right to the pin. I put my head down and all the way to the edge of the green and picked up my head and it was within a golf pencil length

First eagle: #7 at Webb circa 1999...Driver - 3wood - probably a 20' putt



I believe i promptly plunked my next tee shot OB on #8

no idea on first birdie. Only had two eagles(one an ace) and yes I remember both. Both were in the last year, though.

First Eagle was on #8 at Sienna. I blasted a drive a long long way down the fairway. I had no idea how choose which iron to hit cause it didn't know distances at that point (only been playing a few monhts)...had like 165 to the front pin and decided to hit a 7 iron. buddy told me to hit 8 but I didn't listen. I grooved a perfect shot right over the flag and ended up way on the back fringe of the green. I calmly made a 75 foot downhill snaker for my first ever eagle

I came about an inch from making eagle on #3 and #5 at LSU, not that it's that difficult on those holes.

Made a 15 footer for eagle on #3, missed about an 8 footer for eagle on #5
