played golf at a high level for many years, being playing on courses since I was 4
did not get my first and only hole in one until I was 28
Ormond, hole 16, 176 yards, 8 iron, ball wedged between the pin and the lip of the hole...driving up in the cart I asked my dad how close he thought it was, he says he thought it was about a foot, I said I think it is a little closer...then the ball dropped from sight. Glad my dad was there for that too as he basically supplemented my entire junior golf career for about 14 years
tried to buy drinks but they wouldnt let me and someone else bought the first round on my behalf

I played competitively for most of my younger years and never had a hole in one. So of course, my one and only hole in one came while I was drunk with a bunch of groomsman before a wedding. At the wedding I had a bunch of random people come up and call me Mr. Hole in One.

My Dad hit one about the fifth time he played golf. Pure luck at Pine Hills Country Club in Mississippi, #7 par 3 hit it with a damn 5 wood. The tournament had a closest to the hole competition going on too, he sauntered up to the green and dropped the stake right in the cup. Never played again.

8 iron
#7 Duck Creek, Garland TX
128 yards
It was against a strong wind but I hit it a little thin. Landed on the fringe and rolled in with speed. Dad kept the ball and had a little trophy made.
He's had 2 in 5 years, after playing golf for 50 years without any.

How common is hole in one at the high school level?
Posted on 3/17/16 at 2:34 pm to roguetiger15
I haven't had one yet.
I have had two hole outs. First one when I was 14. It was the last whole of the Jack Karnes memorial tournament. Had about 100 yards to the pin(elevated green) Knocked a wedge up and it one hopped in. Finished with an 81
The second one was at my home course. Par 4 up hill. I had 130 yards. Hit a nice draw towards the pin. We all went up to the green to putt and I couldn't find my ball. Looked all over the back side and my buddy asked me if I had looked in the hole. Sure enough it was in there.
Really wish I could snag an ace though. I need to play more.
My high school career never lived up to what I expected of myself. All mental.
As I got older my passion wasn't as high as it used to be. I've been trying to get committed again lately.

I was playing with my Dad, his ball landed in the cup, bounced out, and went off the green. We were in dis-belief.

After not seeing my ball upon arriving at the green, I thought maybe I nuked it and hit it off the back side of the green. I was looking for it when my buddy and playing partner saw it in the cup.
Same, I looked for at least 3 minutes, then I just kept saying noooooo to myself, like no way.

#13 at The Island last summer. 8 iron 145 yds with a slight headwind. Ball hit about 18in behind cup and backed right up into the hole.
I play in a game on Fridays. This Friday we had around 15 players. We were the first group so when I got into the clubhouse I gave the waitress my card and said to charge the drinks to me. After all bets were settled I went to close tab and it was $9. I know it should of been much higher than that. Tipped the waitress $9 and called it a day.

Never had one myself, but have witnessed four over the years in foursomes I've been playing.

What was I suppose to do? Tip more because the waitress messed up my tab?
