I’m over the moon; today I shot a hole in One on the 8th a 138-metres par 3 at my local course,

I hit an 8 iron to the right of the green and watched it roll down to the flag and out of sight, I said to my Two playing partners I think its gone in the hole, they dint believe me and I wasn’t to sure either until we walked up to the green and there was my ball sitting in the hole, I still cant believe it.

Regards

Congratulations!
How did you do on the next hole? Those that can continue to stay in control and par the next are to all be commended. I would guess that 75% bogey or worse. 15% par, 5% birdie, the other 5%....they are already in the bar collecting on their hole-in-one insurance.

Thanks Greg,

Up until the 8th hole I was having a bad round mainly due to my terrible putting and getting used to some small swing changes recommended by my coach,

I normally tee off on the 9th a down hill 181 meter par 3 with a 5 iron but due to the adrenaline rush I teed off with a seven iron and landed 15 feet from the hole and 2 putted for par,

Ended up with a 45 on the front nine and 42 on the back nine,

Its strange, I recently bought a new set of clubs, this combined with getting used to the changes in the swing, just goes to show you never know when a One is going to appear on your card regardless of how bad your round is going.

Regards

Chiper
