Both very difficult. But going OB for 3 consecutive holes is easy for me. Hole-in-1 - Page 2 Icon_sad

wah how come they design 7i for 120y?

4 par3 per round. if play twice every week, then
17867/(4*2*52) = 43 years!!

conclusion: TW better than robots

I think Hole-In-One is more difficult to achieve as the odds of having a Hole-In-One is 45,000 to 1 scratch scratch scratch

Hey, markie....my HOI happened at Palm Springs Batam and I asked the caddie what club I should use as it was a blue pin placement, he handed me a 6i (at that time I didn't think that was the right club, but I trusted him). I wasn't aiming for the HOI but thought if I can get the ball to the back of the green and that would be good enough. The ball flew slightly to the right of the pin, stopped on the green and rolled into the hole....Hurray!!! my flight mates (4 of us) and 2 caddies were shouting, screaming and jumping! They could see the shot so clearly as we're on an elevated tee-box while it took me a bit of time to know what was happening! After that, I could play...the rest of the game (luckily only 2 holes left) was a washout Smile but I didn't complain!

Back at the clubhouse, news traveled fast, Palm Springs not only gave me a certificate but also 500 sing dollars worth of golf products as well as F&B to celebrate....the feeling was out-of-this-world bounce bounce I also had another $500 from my insurance as well!

The interesting thing was that 2 days before the game, I was attending a friend's HOI party at her home and I told her that I would be next to achieve a HOI and promised her that she'll be the first I'd call if it happened scratch When she heard my voice on that day...she screamed!

Hi BG Lee, yes I did, as a matter of fact, the ball was from a box given to me when I passed my Handicap Test (before CR came about) by the boss of Panwest, so I called him the next day to give him the news. He as delighted and immmediately told his Sec to arrange a trophy so I could house that ball! Hole-in-1 - Page 2 358550 Hole-in-1 - Page 2 358550 Hole-in-1 - Page 2 358550 Wow, it was all so emotional Crying or Very sad Crying or Very sad

Couple of weeks later, we celebrated my achievement and they (my flight mates) presented me with a 'replica' of 'me' in full golf gear moulded from joss-sticks powder! I will never forget this moment for as long as I live cheers cheers cheers
