After many many years, got my 2nd HIO today at the Navy GC, Seal Beach, CA. Hole #9, 181 yards. Used 5 iron and hit the perfect shot. Ball flew over the right front green bunker and we heard the ball hitting the flag pole. We thought it would be closed but not in because the pin placement was located in a notoriously hard location. We drove up and didn’t see the ball, but still uncertain. One of the guys in the group ran up and let out a loud cry “it’s in the hole!!!” High fives all around afterward. Didn’t win any prizes, but the feeling was exhilarating nonetheless!
