My first hole in one

jkeeley — Mon, 20 Apr 2026 18:57:29 GMT

I was playing at Cherokee hills in Tulsa Oklahoma. I had 140 into the wind. Hit a full ish PW and one bounce in the hole. It’s my first ever hole in one and I’ll be playing Titleist Pro V1 for the rest of my life!

3rd Hole in 1

Matthew H — Wed, 22 Apr 2026 03:26:20 GMT

Made my 3rd Hole in 1 at the Gold Canyon Golf Resort on the Dinosaur Mountain Course. The 10th hole is a slight uphill par 3. I hit a 3 wood fade. The shot looked good and we expected it to close to the hole. None of us watched it throughout the flight. We got to the green and didn't see the ball. We looked over the green and didn't find it. Eventually we looked in the hole and found it!

First Hole In One

Ryan B — Mon, 20 Apr 2026 19:40:30 GMT

On the 4th hole Par 3 at Hilton Head National, on April 18th, 2026, I hit my first hole in one! It hit right off the pin and dropped right in, leaving a mark on the cup.

The Second-Guess

# The Second-Guess

There's a particular kind of doubt that lives in the moment between pulling a club from the bag and walking up to the tee. On April 4th, 2026, at the Links at Greenfield Plantation, that doubt was the best decision I ever made.

It was 151 yards, par three, downwind. I was up second. Standard math said 9-iron — my usual club for that distance — but the wind was at my back, ready to carry anything I hit an extra club or two. I walked up to the tee box with the 9 in hand, felt the wind one more time, and switched to my pitching wedge at the last second. A club I carry 140, hoping the wind would do the rest.

I hit it flush. The ball climbed, rode the tailwind, and dropped three feet past the pin. Then it spun back. That slow, deliberate kind of spin where time does something weird. It tracked toward the hole like it had been called home — and disappeared.

First hole-in-one. Pitching wedge. Downwind. On a club I almost didn't pull.

Sometimes the best shot of your life is the one where you trusted the wind to do the work and clubbed down to let it happen.

Hole in one

LVis — Wed, 22 Apr 2026 00:38:47 GMT

October 02 2025 was a nice fall day for golf. I just joined Heron Point as a new member 33 days ago. It was the 1st par 3 of the day. 134 yards with the pin left front. I grabbed my gap wedge and put a solid swing onto the ball. Ball was heading straight for th flag with the ball landed just in front of the green and hopped onto the green and rolled straight into the cup. Thia is my 3rd hole in one and 2nd one this year.

First of my life

Mon, 20 Apr 2026 16:24:45 GMT

I’m 79, Ben playing golf since age 12, both of my sons have numerous hole in one’s, and I was wondering if I’d ever get one! Playing a 142 yard par 3 at the Batavia Country Club, Batavia, NY. It was a cool overcast day, no wind. I hit a slight draw to a forward pin that hit the green and rolled out about 20’ to the pin. My one buddy and me looked at each other, and he said I think it went in the hole, at which point I started jumping up and down like an idiot. Glad it was in the hole when I got there [emoticon:6d505171faa4497c85c5ca27290c555d]

Hole in One

Toan D — Sat, 18 Apr 2026 02:31:27 GMT

On April 12, 2026 i finally got the monkey off my back. Took me 18 years in the pursuit of Happiness. At Triggs Memorial in Providence,RI a Donald Ross public gem, we were the first group out. The 7th was a challenging uphill par 3. Lasered it at 187. With the elevation and early morning cold I figured it played about 205yds. I dont have a 4i so i used my Titleist U505 3i. A lil clunky, saw 2 bounces and ball disappeared from sight. Hole is uphill so hard to see. As we arrived, i didn’t see a ball on the green. Then i checked the hole. My Titleist Pro V1x #1 with a black line smiling back at me. It was a glorious day.

It was the 10th hole at The Colts Neck Golf Club in New Jersey. The hole was playing 167 yards that day and the pin was towards the front of the green. I hit a perfect 7 iron that landed right on the front of the green, took two small bounces and then rolled about 3-5 feet right into the cup. 4/11/2026

My First Hole In One

Craig B — Mon, 20 Apr 2026 16:59:44 GMT

While playing in the opening round of the Average Joe Tour - Suncoast South division at Buffalo Creek Golf Course in Florida I hit my first hole in one! The front 9 closest to the pin hole was #8 at 178 yards from the white tee. I used my Titleist T100S 6-iron to very narrowly miss the sandhill crane on the tee box directly in front of me and land the ball on the green. It took one hop and then disappeared out of sight. I refused to believe that the ball was in the hole until I walked up and saw it for myself. Luckily, one of the guys got a video of me walking up to get the ball and took a few photos. It is safe to say I won the closest to the pin contest and a skin for the hole! Unfortunately, I still only managed to achieve a 3rd place for the round, but what a memory!

Hole in one at Sandy Lodge Golf Club

Bharat — Tue, 21 Apr 2026 09:00:54 GMT

On Tuesday, 14th April 2026, at Sandy Lodge Golf Club, I experienced a moment every golfer dreams about.

It happened on the 15th hole — 195 yards, playing straight into the wind. Knowing the conditions, I chose my three wood, aiming to carry the bunker on the right, trusting my usual gentle draw to bring the ball back toward the green.

The strike felt solid, but the flight was lower than expected, piercing through the wind. We watched as the ball came down just short of the green and then released forward. It rolled on… and then disappeared from view. From where we stood, it looked as though it might have run off the back.

As we walked up, unsure of where it had finished, the group ahead—who had just teed off—started shouting something in our direction. We couldn’t quite make out what they were saying. For a moment, I was concerned that one of our balls had interfered with their play. Then someone in my group said, almost in disbelief, “That might be in the hole.”

It still didn’t quite register.

But as I approached the green and looked into the cup, there it was—my ball, sitting at the bottom of the hole.

A hole in one.

My first ever. I m a casual golfer so for me this was an unbelievable shot, an unforgettable moment, and a feeling of pure exhilaration that’s hard to put into words.

First Ever Hole In One

Peter M — Tue, 21 Apr 2026 07:29:34 GMT

Having not played Golf in 20+year, several years ago I took up the sport. Following an injury that stopped me playing for a year, at the end of 205 I finally took up lessons at my club where I am member, Knott End Golf Club.

After 4 months, a fitting for new clubs and advise from the pro I changed ball also to provide the complete package.

On Saturday 18th April 2026, playing at a competition with friends at their club, Harwood Golf Course, inters up at the first hole, par 3 193 yards to the pin as my Garmin told me.

3 Hybrid out the bag, stood over the ball, a brand new Pro V1 with alignment. Cleared my mind, easy swing, not to hard I tell myself.

The ball takes off, nice strike, probably the best swing I’ve ever had. We see the ball land on the green, then see it disappear. Good shot, but it’s rolled off the back.

We walk up to the back of the green, the ball no where to be seen! But it had to have come off the back… where else could it be. I said the lads, I’m not expecting it but I’ll check the hole just for the sake of it… to my surprise it’s there, sat in the bottom of the cup! My first ever hole in one!

It took some 24 hours to fully sink in that achievement of getting a hole in one, something I never thought I would do.

The ball is now going into a presentation case and my score card on the wall.
