I got my second ever hole in one during my first round back, 5 weeks after breaking a knuckle in my left hand index finger. My finger was heavily strapped and I was taking 2 more clubs than I would normally so as I could reduce the impact and subsequent pain it was causing me.

It was achieved on the 16th hole at Beau Desert Golf Club and I took a 5 iron whereas I would have normally played a 7 iron.

So I guess the old adage of no pain no gain does ring true.
