First Hole in One for Car

Jack B — Tue, 02 Jun 2026 19:37:47 GMT

Yesterday I played in a golf outting for my mom’s work. It was a shotgun start and my group started on hole number 9. A long par 3 at about 215 yards. The prize for a hole in one on this hole was a car. With my first swing of the day I chose my Titleist TSR2 4 Hybrid. I wanted to punch a little cut on down there through the wind. I stepped up to the tee and just tried to execute the shot. I hit the ball and thought at first I had hit a very good shot. However it took a nice bounce towards the hole once it landed on the green and went in!! I still can’t believe it happened and was one of the coolest moments of my life.

First Hole-in-One!

Ryan M — Tue, 02 Jun 2026 18:46:40 GMT

I finally got my first career hole-in-one!

Par 3 over water, front right pin, wind blowing off the left and helping about 15 mph. Flushed an 8 iron and it landed perfectly about 8-10 feet short of the pin and rolled in. Playing with my friends from our monday league. Another group of friends on the green behind us and on the tee in front of us all heard the celebration as did the people across the street having coctails on their patio. Unbelieveable feeling.

My first hole in one.

Dean C — Tue, 02 Jun 2026 18:26:37 GMT

I was playing in the HSBC Golf Association golf week which this year was played at Royal Porthcawl and Pyle & Kenfig, two lovely links courses. On day one at Pyle & Kenfig on the 15th hole a par 3, 184 yards from the yellow tees I had my first hole in one. It was a strong headwind so I used my TSR1 driver, we saw the ball hit the green but not go in the hole. This was discovered on reaching the green.

Hole-in-One

Bryan B — Tue, 02 Jun 2026 18:04:47 GMT

My most recent Hole-in-One came on the 155 yard forth hole at Georgia Southern University course on Friday, May 8th. We were playing a charity tournament and this happened to be the first hole-in-one in the 5 year history. I've had 4 hole-in-ones and each have been in my 30's, 40's, 50's, and now 63. The last 3 have been with Titleist golf balls.

My story

Rocky J — Tue, 02 Jun 2026 17:01:31 GMT

On July 13,2025 I was a guest at the Glendale golf and country club on hole 16 playing 170 yards into the wind. Pulled up my 7 iron and boom. A hole in one. I do have a video of it but it won’t let me upload it.

A Hole-in-One in the Heart of the Smokies

Chelsea F — Tue, 02 Jun 2026 15:23:38 GMT

I had only been playing golf for about two years and I was still relatively new to the game, but I had quickly discovered that I had a natural swing and a knack for it. Golf had become one of my favorite hobbies, and every chance I got, I was out on the course trying to improve.

That summer, my family and I were visiting our cherished family cabin tucked away in the Smoky Mountains of North Carolina. It's a place filled with memories, laughter, and traditions that span generations. One of those traditions is getting out for a round of golf whenever we're there.

The morning started with a blanket of clouds hanging over the mountains, but as we made our way around the course, the skies began to clear. Sunlight broke through the clouds and spilled across the valleys below, turning an already beautiful day into something special.

The course knew our family well and, on one of their slower mornings, bent the rules a little to let six of us play together. We even had family members riding along in the carts, enjoying the scenery, the weather, and each other's company. We only had time for nine holes, so we knew it would be a short but sweet round.

When we arrived at the ninth hole, we paused for a moment to take in the view. The tee box overlooked a stunning mountain valley, and the green sat perched ahead like a tiny target. It wasn't a hole where you could simply hit the green and be happy. You had to be a pin hunter. If your ball landed in the wrong spot, it could easily roll off the green and leave you scrambling.

As I stepped onto the tee box, I looked at my family and joked, "This would be a great hole for a hole-in-one. Let's see if I can get it close and drop it about ten feet in front of the flag so it trickles in."

Everyone laughed.

Then I stepped up to the ball.

I pulled out my 7-iron, took a smooth swing, and caught it absolutely flush. The strike felt perfect, square in the center of the clubface. I swung a little easier than normal and opened the face slightly to add some loft and spin.

The ball launched exactly where I wanted it.

We all watched as it flew dead straight toward the flag. It landed right where I had imagined, about ten feet short of the pin. One hop. Then another. It began to roll.

Closer.

And then, right before our eyes, it disappeared.

The ball dropped into the cup.

For a split second, nobody moved.

Then chaos erupted.

Our entire family exploded with screams, cheers, and complete disbelief. The sound echoed across the course. People in the parking lot heard us and started looking over. Golfers finishing their rounds and others getting ready to tee off rushed toward the ninth green to see what had happened.

When they realized it was a hole-in-one, they began congratulating me, shaking my hand, and celebrating right alongside our family.

Standing there on that green, surrounded by family, friends, and complete strangers sharing in the moment, was one of the most incredible feelings I've ever experienced.

A hole-in-one is something many golfers chase their entire lives and never achieve. Somehow, less than two years into my golf journey, on a beautiful day in the Smoky Mountains with my family by my side, I got to experience one.

It's a memory I'll carry with me forever.

My first Hole in 1 !!!!

Alexander M — Tue, 02 Jun 2026 15:19:48 GMT

I was playing an opening member mixer scramble and was last to hit on my team. Sculled it, took a hop and a couple bounces and got a -2 on the hole for the team. It’s safe to say I got closest to the hole :)

Mike F — Tue, 02 Jun 2026 14:28:49 GMT

June 28, 2025 Congress Lake Club in Hartville, Ohio. #18, Par 3, 120 yards. Pitching Wedge. (Titleist T200) Titleist ProV1x Left Dash

First and only hole in one. Beautiful day on the course with good friends. Pure shot, hit, bounced past the hole, checked and spun back in. It was one of the greatest moments of my life. I’ll be chasing that feeling forever.

Premier trou d'un coup

Thomas B — Tue, 02 Jun 2026 13:41:46 GMT

Je faisais un tournoi familiale pour le plaisir et nous étions environ 5 équipes de 4 à compétitionner l'un contre l'autre. La partie était quand même serrez avec une autre équipe et en arrivant au dernier trou j'ai pris mon gap wedge et j'ai réussi l'exploit devant tous le monde qui nous regardais. Un beau moment en famille !

What a beautiful day… 1 June 2026 PM My late father always wants an Ace in his life, and unfortunately he pass away with out making it happen.

I’ve started golf in my teenage years and always have a fond memories with him playing the game.

One thing that I always remember was he always have a pro v1 in his bag.

Yesterday I’ve got my first Ace with his trusted ball… Papa, this one is for you

Hole in 1

Sam K — Tue, 02 Jun 2026 04:54:59 GMT

Got my first Hole In One today, went to play a twilight round this evening and brought my daughter to ride along. Was playing Oak Creek in Irvine CA. Hole 3 Par 3. 100 yards from the tee and pin location was up front, brought out my 50 Degree SM11’s and hit a shot that I thought was pulling left. Landed pin high and had some backspin and ended up rolling into the hole. I didn’t even know how to react but it feels amazing

First Hole in One!

Anthony G — Tue, 02 Jun 2026 03:04:38 GMT

On June 1, 2026, I recorded my first hole-in-one at Stow Acres Country Club on Hole #7, a 180-yard Par 3. I used a 6-iron and a Titleist TruSoft golf ball, hitting a controlled fade that landed just short of the pin, took one bounce, and rolled directly into the hole.

At first, neither my playing partner nor I realized it had gone in, as we lost sight of the ball on the approach. It wasn’t until we walked up to the green—about 10 yards away—that we discovered the ball in the cup, resting against the flagstick.

It was a memorable moment that reflects both consistency and dedication to improving my game. I look forward to continuing to build on this and sharing more achievements in the future.

My hole in one

Rob B — Tue, 02 Jun 2026 01:27:12 GMT

I hit a sand wedge and the pin was hidden from my group. The group on the next hole started yelling and screaming. I walked up and pulled the pro v1 out of the hole

My first!

Alexander H — Tue, 02 Jun 2026 00:55:12 GMT

Playing with Dad on a Sunday afternoon, walked to the tee, felt some wind, and decided on 5 instead of 6. 192 yards, flushed it, hit about 4 feet short, bounced around the pin 2-3 times, and disappeared! I’ll never forget it!

Quick twilight at Oak Creek Golf Club

Sam K — Tue, 02 Jun 2026 00:50:07 GMT

Played a quick round at Oak Creek Golf Course in Irvine, CA was on hole 3 par 3 playing from the whites. 100 yards out, pulled out my Vokey SM11 50 Degree and gave it a nice hit. Pin was closer to the front and the ball was aiming left of it. Landed about 10 feet and rolled right into the hole. My daughter was my witness and we were both freaking out. No footage of the actual swing but I started recording after the tee box

Brendan M — Mon, 01 Jun 2026 23:49:04 GMT

Hi there,

I just got first hole in one this past weekend! I got it at the Big Sky golf Resort Course! It was a little rainy and downwind slightly. 192 yards slightly downhill. I hit a 7 iron… it bounced once and spun back right into the hole! First ever. Super stoked!

1st Hole in one

MRogers — Mon, 01 Jun 2026 23:12:37 GMT

Home course, hole usually plays around 120 yds, but they’re working on the tee box, so it’s playing 75 yds. Hit lob wedge good, hit a little long and right, then spun back and got wedged between the pin and side of the hole. Was hoping it would happen on a longer hole, but I’ll take it to get off 0.

It was so wet, I almost walked off. Then…. #️⃣1️⃣

Elliott P — Mon, 01 Jun 2026 22:05:08 GMT

Me and my playing partner decided to tee off despite the awful weather. We managed to get through the first nine holes, mainly laughing at our stupidity to continue after the turn. The standard of golf was sub-par at best - the course record was going to survive another day.

The back nine got off to a flyer on the 10th, with a 2 on the signature 145yd par 3 - playing downhill, over 2 large trees protecting the green.

From here on, the rain didn’t stop coming down and it certainly wasn’t raining birdies. I was on the bogey train.

Teeing up to 14, I told my playing partner what I was looking to do (you know, in case it looked anything like a fluke) - a baby fade, off the left bunkers, and towards the pin at the right section of the green.

185yd, playing 165, 8 iron in hand.

I called it. The shot came off. All the ball needed to do was check up and take the small hill into the hole…. And it did!!

Safe to say the remaining 4 holes i can’t remember. All that really mattered that day was that we chose to play, even though the weather was against us (and that I got the illustrious hole in one many golfers search their whole lives for).

Hole in one

Jackson S — Mon, 01 Jun 2026 22:01:12 GMT

I’ve been playing golf for 8 months now and can’t believe how much I’ve fallen in love with the game. The morning of my hole in 1 me and my buddy were talking about what if we get a hole in 1 as a joke just to get excited about the round. I remember when we started the round I started the first hole off with a double and was looking to bounce back. On the 2nd hole it was 140 to the pin and I grabbed my 8 I hit a draw strait at the whole, for a second I thought it was going to fly over the green. But I saw it bounce behind the pin and disappeared, me and my buddy freaked out and instantly ran to the green, we forgot the cart so my buddy had to run back and get it but sure enough the ball mark was a foot behind the pin and the ball was in the cup.

Hole in one !!

Lee B — Mon, 01 Jun 2026 21:30:06 GMT

On August 6th 2022, I've made a hole in one while playing with my best friend and my son.

I've hit a 7 Iron for 165 yards, aimed right at the pin.... and the ball went it.

Wow! what a day at the office.

First hole in one!

Chris C — Mon, 01 Jun 2026 19:39:42 GMT

Played in a Paddyshack at Patrick’s day tournament at Rancho California golf club in Murrieta. March 14th hole 6 playing 144yds hit my 9iron behind the flag and pulled it right back into hole!! Unbelievable! The best part was i was using a ball that had a dear friends picture that i had made for a He-Man golf group. We lost Darnell a couple years earlier and we try and still play with him when we can. What a moment for our group and Darnell!!
