My wife goes along when I play by myself because my eyesight is not the best. I have only one good one and it has floaters and a cataract. The hole was on the lower level of a 2 tiered green and I knew I hit it good and straight but lost it as it was coming down. My wife said "It went in the hole". Later I asked how close to the hole it landed and she said "It just went straight in, no bounce or roll". I was my first one so I was excited.
