Congrats West Karma!

I got one myself back in 1996. 201 yard par 3 - 17th hole at Douglasdale. Used a 3 wood off the tee and bounced the ball off the cart path and onto the green and into the hole

$300 bar tab for me. My buddies and my dad drank a lot that day.

Also got a Hole in One certificate and bag tag from Johnnie Walker. Framed and hanging in my den.

Congrats on the hole in one!

That is a huge dream of mine. I've been golfing for probably 20 years, and nothing yet.

Congrats WK!

Never had one myself, but my old man has gotten 3 somehow. (Now if he could only break 100...)

Wow, on a par 4, nice form. I had one playing at Langara in Vancouver though I forget the hole number, but it was an 8 iron.

I was there for the first one, same kind of story we were looking forever for the ball, and then finally I had the brilliant idea to look in the hole and there it was. But yes, every time I go out with him now he always reminds me of how he's up a field goal on me.

I got my second hole in one today at Elbow Springs on the 7th hole of the Elbow nine.

Apparently there is some drinking to do afterwards.

Cheers.

Stuck it within 6 feet on a 345 yard Par 4 once, three-putted for par.

I almost cried.

I did once, it was a hole that I always had a lot of problems with but one day I just took my time, focused on my breathing and let er go. Sure enough it went right to the hole and rolled in. I was so happy and started dancing around, and now I know that damn windmill will never bother me again cause I can tame it.

Par 4 300+ yards hole in one. Well done sir, awesome!

I lipped one on a tiny 120 yard par 3 once at Douglasdale course, but it didn`t stay down . That`s as close as I`ve got.

I got one at Richmond Green about 10 years ago... 125yds with a sand wedge...

My boss got one at Elbow Springs during a company tournament and won $10,000. She donated $1000 of it to the charity that we were raising money for.

My Dad was in a foursome at Kananaskis where a hole in one won you a 40,000 boat. One guy steps up and puts it in the water, reloads and puts it in the hole. Nice 3, but no boat.

Wow, a Par 4 hole in one! Congrats!

I got mine back when I was 13 at the Radium Resort course. I believe it was hole 12 and just a par 3. 7 iron, landed about 2 feet in front of the cup and just rolled in. Besides my foursome there were two groups waiting behind us, everyone went nuts. It was awesome!

I have the ball, hole flag, and letter mounted on a nice wall display.

Two groups waiting? That's probably why they went nuts... Your foursome was slow as sh1t!
