Right after sinking that shot would have been the best time for her to give up the sport. It's all downhill from there.

I shot a 46 through 9 yesterday. Best golf I ever played.

Wow, that's impressive! The first time I played golf I didn't even hit the ball off the tee at the first hole, LOL

Not a bad article, too. You can see the blogger had fun with that.

Jealous? Yep. I've been playing for 30 years and have never come closer than about 8 inches.

Same here, I think 6 inches or so maybe 5 times in 30 years. I did have a "hole in 2" on a par 4 which I guess is my next best shot. It was up a hill and I didn't even get to see it!

I've had a couple of those as well. They're pretty much the same thing, but for some reason it just doesn't feel like it.

Re: Woman Gets Hole-in-one on First Ever Golf Shot on a Course!

Not to make anyone feel bad, but I've had 3 hole-in-ones and 3 double eagles on par 5's.

I've actually had a couple very interesting events happen on the course. Both would've/could be records. First, on the day I had my first double eagle (the 13th hole), I came within an inch of a hole-in-one on the 5th hole that day. Does anyone know if someone has had both in the same round?

Second, the 13th hole at Stonelick Hills (awesome, awesome course btw) is my hole. The first time I played the hole I hit a 3-wood to 2 feet and made eagle. The 2nd time I played the hole I holed a 5-iron for double eagle. Does anyone know if someone has gone eagle/double-eagle the first two times they've played a hole? Pretty crazy, huh?

You guys might think I'm lucky, but I've also had some crappy luck. I started and ended big tournaments with quadruple bogies, lost in three PGA Tour qualifier playoffs (one after shooting 65), missed q-school by a shot twice, etc. etc. I guess it goes both ways.
