I've come close on a few par 3's. One bouncing off the flagpole. Damn it. :-) Did knock in a birdie from about 85 yrds behind and over a bunker without seeing the flag. Totally luck on that one. :-) [Reply]

I had a "hole in 3" at the 200 yard #14 at Klein Creek. Hit the first ball in the water, dropped another ball on the tee and knocked it in.
I have saved balls from "hole outs" over the years and marked them with the date and hole. Kind of fun memories.
The luck comment was spot on. I had a friend get a hole in one his second round of playing golf, with me.
Another day, in our men's league three of us hit good shots on a short par 3, but this old fart had one land on a sprinkler head, shoot across the green, hit the flag and go in. [Reply]
Males will ohhh and ahhh and become entranced with any attractive female who does "x" activity reasonably well. In the time of instagram, tik tok, etc their advantage is clear. There is undoubtedly a Paige Spiranic of model train enthusiasts, or will be. It has just really, really, really, really have to suck to be an ugly woman. An ugly man? No big deal. But an ugly woman? Whoa shit your life is pretty much fucked. [Reply]

I could absolutely see this happening. If I ever get one I would hope mine would be so memorable. :-) On a side note, I think that guy in Omaha still has the Guinness world record for longest putt. 444 yrds. Guy tee'd off with a putter with about a 50+ mph behind him and got it. Correction.. Looked it up. Some guy in Canada beat him in 2002. Hit it from 517 yrds. :-) [Reply]
