my second hole in one

William R — Mon, 15 Jun 2026 19:23:17 GMT

I have been playing golf for 45+ years and no aces; now I have two a year apart (6/1/25; 6/3/26). This second one was a good hit, good flight, high, but a little off to the right of target; took the correct hop back toward the hole and then ran out downhill right into the cup. It's really a very good feeling but then you remember you have to keep playing the rest of the round!! After shooting 38 on the front nine, I ended up doubling 5 holes on the back with 2 birdies for a 46, thus carding an 84 for the round. I had three birdies, an ace, 3 pars, 5 bogies, and 6 doubles. Ahh, golf; what a great game! Sequoyah National is an absolutely gorgeous North Carolina mountain course.

The First Sunshine in June

Paul T — Mon, 15 Jun 2026 18:39:10 GMT

On a glorious, sunny day on June 13th at The Royal Automobile Country Club with 3 of my nearest and dearest I only went and sank a 162 Yard 6 iron off the 15th tee. One glorious hop from the fringe and the gentle rattle of the ball wedging itself into the hole against the rattling flag. The coronation Course was in perfect condition after the heavy rainfall in the preceding two weeks. There was a moment of disbelief, then a roar of noise from behind me. My heart was thumping. A quick dash in golf carts at Mac 3 to the pin to go and check. Sure enough the ball was where it is intended to be. Pure elation followed. What a feeling, what a day.

Hole in one a The Wedge!

Philip E — Mon, 15 Jun 2026 17:21:53 GMT

A lot of people say a hole in one on a par 3 course doesn’t count, but when surrounded by all your buddies and random strangers and that bal drops from the tee box it is the most special moment, I’ll remember for the rest of my golf career. Before I actually hit the ball, I was taking a practice swing and the club went flying out of my hand almost hitting a group of people. All embarrassed I walk over and apologize but they were really nice about it and actually followed me back to the tee box to watch me hit my tee shot! As I’m walking up to the ball I hear, “After that now you HAVE to hit a hole in one” now shaking I hit the ball and it was pure. It landed on the green, hit the left slope and dropped right in the cup!

Hole in One

Alireza G — Mon, 15 Jun 2026 16:46:39 GMT

Hi there,

I just wanted to share a golf memory that I'll probably be talking about for the rest of my life. I recently made my first hole-in-one while playing at Native Oaks Golf Club on Hole #3, a par 3, using my T200 pitching wedge with a 3/4 swing.

I know this is a long shot, but I thought your team might enjoy hearing that one of your products was part of such a memorable moment for me. I've really enjoyed using your equipment and wanted to say thanks for being part of a special day. Also, as a TPI certified PT, the knowledge I have gained from your team has improved my game immensely, thus allowing for a great moment such as this hole in one. I am absolutely grateful!

Wishing your team all the best, and thanks for making great gear.

Ali

Hole in 1 - win the comp

Martin B — Mon, 15 Jun 2026 15:26:50 GMT

We were playing in a pairs comp (official club comp) which is a board comp at our club. Harpenden Common Golf Club in Hertfordshire. Standing on the 18th tee we had 40 points, the 18th is a par 3, to get in the prizes we figured we needed a birdie. I stepped up and hit an 8 iron 135 yards into a very stiff wind against and off the left, it went exactly where I aimed it, perfect contact couple of bounces and it goes in the hole! 4 points, 44 points in total and we win the comp! Has anyone ever won a comp with a hole in one?

My 2nd Ace!

Bob S — Mon, 15 Jun 2026 13:56:42 GMT

We were playing with a guest and certainly made this a memorable round. Our signature hole is #17 - a par 3 over water. It was playing 135 yds with a slight wind. I struck the ball squarely with a smooth 9i and it was looking pretty good all the way. We heard a noise and it either hit the flag stick or went right in the jar. Either way it way my 2nd hole in one within 8 months. Still can't believe it!

What an exciting feeling and great way to start the weekend.

Unable to see if from the tee, la,ered the green and thought it was just short and had spun back. When we got upto the putting surface, no ball to be found at the front or at the back Checked the cup and found it to be at the bottom

Hole in One Story

Alyson G — Mon, 15 Jun 2026 09:22:53 GMT

I have been playing golf most of my life but took a “sabbatical” for about 20 years. I have been playing now , in the summers in Newton Centre, at the same course where I earned to play as a child and this is where it happened during a Ladies” team tournament. My goal was simply to hit a good drive and land on the green so my team could “use my drive” ànd just putt. The tournament was à bramble format. Needless to say we used my drive.

Fun fact…my Dad had a hole in one on this course twice on the 14th hole.!

First Hole in One

RSingh — Mon, 15 Jun 2026 03:07:53 GMT

It’s just happened I can’t believe I have hit Hole in one on 6th Hole at Sanctuary lakes golf course on 14th June 2026 Sunday Competition. It was a perfect 9 iron baby fade one bounce and In. When I hit that shot I could see where the ball went, all I knew at the time it should be near the pin or may passed few feets .

When I was approaching the hole there was no ball near the pin and I was like man may be it’s gone in the bunker ,then my partner discovered it is in. When he said it is in the hole…nuclear strength adrenaline rush exploded in my body and I screamed Oh My God Its HOLE IN ONE.

WOW ….the feeling is just overwhelming.

Well credit also goes to Prov1 that migh spun after the bounce and found the hole.

1st Hole in One - Age 57

Mon, 15 Jun 2026 02:20:35 GMT

I’ve been golfing since I was 14 and I’m not certain I’d really classify many of those years as golf as I was more of a hacker. It wasn’t until the last couple of years when I began working with a golfing mentor and began playing a lot more golf so I definitely have been able to upgrade equipment and just all around golfing knowledge. 2 years ago my first round of the year I shot a 103 and now I can consistently shoot in the low 70s and I had my first subpar round less than a week ago so I’m starting to find my groove .

My first hole in one came at Hodge Park golf course in Kansas City, Missouri - par 3 - #7 hole. The yardage was 151 yards playing 158 with slope with a pretty strong wind in our face. I was originally going to hit my 6 hybrid and it just felt like there was just more wind than normal so I played my PXG 11 wood and hit a high draw into the green and it hit on the front edge, and the ball kicked left rolling towards the pin. Being an elevated green the hole was a blind, but I knew from previous rounds that I was tracking towards the pin. As we drove up to the Green, we didn’t see my ball on the Green. My initial thought was that I had rolled off and I told my playing partner that I really didn’t think that it was possible because I hit on the front side and that 11 wood really gets the ball high with a lot of spin and stopping power so he said well I’m not gonna jinx you. I’m gonna let you walk up and check it out yourself. As I neared the hole, m heart began to race and as I got to the edge and peaked in and there she was staring at me. I looked over at him and said “dude, it’s in the hole”and he was definitely more excited that I was as I was in kind of like a state of shock. I tried for so many years and I think the biggest difference was fact that I used the Titleist True Feel for the first time. I’d recently played in a tournament where they had given us a sleeve of Titleist True Feels and I had them in my bag and decided to go ahead and give them a shot and I hit them well all day. It was awesome and who knew first time I ever played the True Feel ball for a full round that I would get my first hole in one … pretty amazing experience.

My hole in one

Danny H — Sun, 14 Jun 2026 20:45:17 GMT

i was playing in a 3-day golf tournament at AC Reed golf course at the Naval Base in Pensacola Florida with my friend Chris Wasko. We got to number 8 hole on the Lakeview 9, which was 120 yards and the pin was hidden behind a bunker. Playing into the wind, and my age at 74, i hit an 8 iron right at it and when we walked up to the green, couldn’t see the ball anywhere, and Chris said it’s probably in the hole, and he hustled over to the hole and turned to me and said,”I told you it was in the frickin hole! This is my third hole in one of my golfing career, which didn’t start until i was 35, but i can honestly tell you i didn’t have any until i started using Titleist Pro V1 golf balls!! Just a great feeling and that golf Ball plays so well, thank you.

First ever hole in one

Joshua B — Sun, 14 Jun 2026 20:34:27 GMT

I started taking up golf and my husband convinced me to play a better ball than the super soft ones I was used to playing as I was learning. I bought a pack of custom number 77 pro v1x balls in hopes that maybe he was right, a ball with more spin would stick on the green better. My first round using the new balls, I landed my first ever hole in 1 on the last par three with my 9 iron and my custom 77 pro v1x! My new go to ball now!

12 years of golf, the chance for the ace is complete!

Tyler B — Sun, 14 Jun 2026 19:41:23 GMT

Was talking to my golf buddy on the way to the course, I said “I’m nervous I may get my first hole in one by myself with how much I’ve been playing alone lately. Logged my best front nine of the season with a +1 (37). Got to the back nine, bogeyed 10, 11 is a 156 (to stick) par 3, hurting wind today. Played an 8 iron, straight off the face I said “oh just go in the hole”. Said it jokingly, exaggerating that the shot felt great. Little did I know it would hop twice, and then disappear.

Island Green Miracle

MBusby — Sun, 14 Jun 2026 19:36:32 GMT

Let me first lead off by saying that I am a college Women's Basketball Coach at SUNY Potsdam in Potsdam, NY.

Almost a month ago, one of my players was killed in a tragic hit an run accident the night before watching her friends walk the stage at graduation. Her name was Emily Smith. The story made national news.

In the weeks following Emily's passing, I have become very close with her family. Her father Kevin Smith, is a part owner of the Island Green Golf and Resort in Greenville, NY. I told him I would be in the area recruiting and he invited me down to play a round. Emily had always talked about the course and the famed island green that her father had hit his own Hole-in-One on.

I jumped at the chance and invited my future brother-in-law, Nick, with me for a day on the course. When we got there Kevin said that Emily's Older Sister's Boyfriend, John, was going to accompany us.

The island green is a par 3 and a beautiful view. I teed up with my pitching wedge after getting the 125 yardage. As the ball was in the air I was yelling at it to "get there!" as I thought I had hit it too short. The ball kicked slightly left on the first bounce, bounced a second time, hit the flagstick and dropped into the hole.

I looked at Nick and John in disbelief. "There's no way." I said to the both of them. We quickly got in the carts and rode up to the green. Nick was able to record some video as we were getting out of the carts and walking up to the green to check the hole. As I walked up to the hole. There was my ProV1 sitting in the bottom of the cup.

I was overcome with emotion. John quickly called Kevin on the phone and told him the news. Kevin took a cart out and met us on the next tee box. He gave me a hat that he had specially made for anyone who hits a Hole-in-one on the course. He handed it to me and said "You cant buy this one in the pro shop!"

I gave him a big hug and told him that there was no way I could have hit that shot without some intervention from Emily.

She was with me that day and I have the most special memory because of it.
