    8 iron, left to right hurting wind, started it well left, drew it and rode wind (i'm a lefty), went a little long and left on a steep slope, and trickled back down the slope right in the fng hole

    such a surreal feeling

    most satisfying was following it up with a birdie

    pin was almost where it is in the main picture, kinda front right

    yay

    Congrats on the Hole in One!

    I had my first this past summer, hole #17 at Mount Si Golf Course. Here's the view from behind the green (don't wanna post pic; it's too big): http://www.komar.org/oleg/golf-with-...-golf-crop.jpg

    Uphill to a front-middle-right pin, 4-iron. Since it's uphill and there's sort of a bank in front of the green, I couldn't see it go in. I knew it was a good shot; I pured it. I was so happy with the shot that I took a few steps before my friend called me back because I'd forgotten my 5-iron lying on the tee box marker, lol. I got up to the green and didn't see the ball. So I thought to myself, OMFG I think it's in the hole. I kinda slowly walked to the pin, saw the ball, and it was just euphoria on the inside. It's such a surreal feeling, especially never having done it before. My dad has never had a hole-in-one, so being 24 and having golfed my hole life, it seemed like it wasn't going to happen for me, either. To have it happen by puring a 4-iron and coming to the realization that it was probably in the hole was awesome. I didn't jump up and down or anything, just kind of a rye smile and amazing feeling inside me. It's so gratifying.

    I fucking hate u guys. 5 iron from 190 yesterday, 3 iron from 205 today different course. Both balls dis. for a second then i could kinda see em behind the flag, thought they were both in standing on the tee for a second. Yesterday was about 2 inches behind today ended up about 4 feet past. Never had one and with my luck never will.

    Haha nice!!!

    I had mine 3 years ago on the 17th hole at Kiskiack near Williamsburg. Also followed it up with a birdie.

    I'm a pretty shitty golfer, so I spent the next few hours in a state of shock combined with that surreal feeling. It has to be one of the most awesome feelings ever though.

    Congrats again!

    Here was mine...166 yard par 3. It is an elevated green and had some wind blowing in. I pulled 6 iron, walked to the teebox, and then walked back and grabbed a 5 iron instead. Saw the ball disappear but thought it had rolled off the back. Such an incredible feeling!

    Never gotten a hole in one before. Had a buddy I golfed with most of the time growing up, we'd have some awesome battles. Neither of us were great, both are pretty solid, and we always had a nice friendly rivalry. Really sucks witnessing him getting a hole-in-one when his tee shot doesn't even land on the fucking green, though. Ugh.

    Got my only one May 31st, a bunch of years back. 8 iron from 160 yards. One hopped it off the pin and in. Was the 2nd hole, and a 4some of ladies were letting us play through and were standing at the back of the green, I'm pretty sure they got more excited than I did. Pretty cool feeling, except for the fact I doubled the first hole. Even par after 2 with a hole in one.

    Nice, congrats! Like a few have said, it's an amazing feeling. I'm not sure if I remember anything else as vividly as the moment I first got mine. I specifically remember my thought process: "okay, that looks pretty good" "hey, that looks real good" "shit, that could go in." Once it dropped I turned to my brother, and we shared this brief moment of silence/dumbfoundedness staring at each other, and then he started yelling and jumping up and down while I just stood there like an invalid. He later told me that I looked terrified/like I had seen a ghost right after it dropped.
