According to the sign, 347 to center green.
Four some on the green putting. Golf carts across the front of the green.
Had my wife tee off from the ladies tee.
She drove back. I got it all ...
Fairway sloping down abut 2-3 degrees the entire length.
We lost sight of the ball after the first bounce ...Every head on the green looks up. I thought, "Hit the carts."
They putted out ...my wife hit again ..then on to the green ...The four were sitting on the side waiting ...
We walked up ...One says "We had to see the guy who hit that." Two feet from the pin ...there sat my ball.
One guy says "Suddenly a ball rolled between us and to the pin ...a little more ...might be a hole in one."
Luckily ..... I putted in for an Eagle ..we were all joking that I might three putt.

I did something like this earlier this year
It was a short par 4 with a fairway bunker and a couple trees in between the tee box and the green so I usually lay up right and chip in.
Rangefinder said 275 to the pin. 4 guys are on the green putting so figured I’m good to go. Was testing out my new 3w and gave it a rip. Felt well struck but looked slightly left. Looking to the left side and there’s a ball about 15 yards left and short of the green. Thought holy shite I smoked it and walk up to see that it’s not my ball. Guys putting tell me it’s over here. They said the shot bounced about a yard short of the green, bounced through the middle of them, missed the pin by about 6 inches, and wound up 3 yards past the green
I profusely apologized, but I figured there was no way I’d hit close to them much less through them with a 3w at 275. They were super nice about it and just told me they were impressed. Went on to have a good chip and sunk a 4ft birdie putt. Finished the round with my lowest score ever so it was a good day.
TL; DR: I hit my 3w about 285 off the tee.
