I posted a few months ago about how often people get close to hitting hole in ones since I had been sniffing quite a few flags since COVID gave me time to improve my iron play.
Well, today the golf gods were kind enough to open the door for me!
Played Pebble Creek today with a couple of good friends. The action took place on hole #4 where I played my PW from 130 yards out. One of my friends was watching from directly behind me. The ball gets about 5 feet from hitting the green and he says, "That's a hole in one!" It lands about a foot or two to the right side of the cup and spins to the left and dropped in!
It was a great feeling even though we totally botched the reaction celebration!
I proceeded to make a great bogey save on #5. Then nearly cupped my approach on #6 drawing a smug look and shake of the head from one of my other friends.
Such a unique experience! Funny thing I almost teed off with the hole in one ball on the next hole...which I did lose in the penalty hazard. 3 over for the day made for a solid round seeing as I nearly hooked everything off the tee til hole 12. Had me scrambling for a good while.
Who's up next!?
