Hole in one

[julsk10]

I had my second hole in one yesterday on our par 4 4th hole in the Hamper sweep. We were playing temporary greens so do you think this still counts?
Bar bill was only £30- the joy of playing early on a Saturday morning.

Par 4?!?!?
Well done if it was a par 4! What club did you hit?
I would still count if they were temporary greens in my opinion

You can only aim for what they decide to put in front of you

Hole in 1 is a hole in 1

Congratulations

Mines a pint

Great early Christmas present, hope you saved the ball to mount. Well done.

I'd count it especially if you had to fork out for the bar bill. Didn't see anyone there saying don't worry it was a temporary green and a larger hole

Fabulous. Well done, and on a par 4!!

Was it a bucket hole? or just a temp. Might make a difference to some, not to me though.....what can you say. Congratulations.

well done !!

not many people can say they have had a hole in one on a par 4

 

[didsbury_duffer]

Well done. I'm still looking for my first. Have been close quite a few times, but not close enough!!

Our 4th is a dog leg so the temp green is at the top of the hill on the turn of the dog leg. I hit a six iron, the frost was lying on the ground so got about 30 yds of run. None of our temporary greens have bucket holes so it was probably the equilavent of a hole in one on a par three.

Sorry, but i would not count it. Just not a proper hole

So what would you write on the scorecard for that hole?

 

[DCB]

as an aside, what's a "bucket hole" ?

Some courses put buckets in the ground on their temps instead of normal size holes. You just whack the ball as hard as you lilke and it goes in

 

[USER1999]

Unless it hits the ironwork, in which case it is in all the way until it is out.

Bucket holes are 2x the size of proper holes, and are used in temporary greens when the grass is so rough you can't putt on it.

I'd claim it if it was mine. Congrats mate wish I'd been there just for the drink.

 

[Matty]

Count it!

Did you hit the ball only once on the tee? YES!
Did you pick it out of the hole next? YES!

That, in my book, is a hole in one!!

 

[TonyN]

Hole in 1 all day. Merry Christmas that man! ( i hope your a man)

 

[Smiffy]

Was it a Stableford? If so, how many points did you rack up

Ace in my book by the way. Went on the card as a 1 so 'nuff said. Well done

5 pts for the hole in one, I didn't have a shot at it. I had 22 pts over nine holes which was level par and didn't get near the prizes. I had 39 pts over the 18 but nust say back nine ws a struggle as I was out the night before on xmas do.

I had a Hole in One, on the 12th Dec at our club. The 10th Hole, 192yds, off full tees and on the top level of a MacKenzie green. Fantastic! Then I find out that another member has even better bragging rights for the day. He also made a Hole in One on the same hole on the same day, however his was his first shot of the day, as he started at the 10th. It was still a pleasure buy the drinks.
