I am by no means a Great golfer, heck im not even a good golfer. I play about twice a summer and only started playing again a few years ago. However I finally scored a hole in one. Yes Sunday September 3rd 2006. I was at Hickory Hills Country Club outside of Chicago and was having a tough day with most of my iron shots, however I would ocassionaly do ok, my 9 wasnt treating me so bad.
My friend and I were on Hole 17, 150 yards. He Tee’ed off first. He used an 8 iron off a tee. He came up a bit short. I tee’ed off with a 9 iron off the ground (Which I did consider changing after he came short but decided to stick with it). It was a perfect swing, perfect contact, the ball lofted in the air, bounced on the gree twice and bounced into the hole (not rolled but bounced) just like you see on TV.
It was an awsome feeling to finally doing this. I was mentioning to my friend on an earlier short hole that one of my goals in life is to get a hole in 1. Guess it just all came together :)
