re: Hole in one? Double eagle? Where? When?

35+ years of golf. No hole-in-ones. Exactly 2 eagles, and both at LSU oddly enough....and 1 was on a par 4.

The first one was on the par-5 5th hole. Chipped in from about 30-40 yards.

The other one was the par-4 14th that dog-legs left over the canal. I smoked my drive and hit it low and hard and cut the dogleg. I am pretty sure the ball hit the cart path and accelerated a bit, but somehow it missed the trees and ended up about 10 feet from the green. As luck would have it, the pin was located in the front of the green, so my ball was no more than 30-35 feet from the hole and I chipped it in for the 2.
