My first Hole in One Surprise

My first Hole in One Surprise

Location: Olivas Links Ventura, CA
Hole: 8
Yards: 115

I have played this course many times just for fun and for my college tournaments, even for my state finals, and love everything about it. It is a fun, challenging, and rewarding(obviously) course.

Hole #8 is a short par 3 that measures 115(front tees)... however, it was surprisingly challenging that day because the wind was blowing really hard(about 20 mph).

The pin was playing back left, tucked behind a deep bunker. I would usually grab my pitching wedge but with the heavy wind I grabbed my least favorite club in my bag... my 7 iron.

As I hit the ball, I knew it was a good shot but didn't see it on the green. As we were approaching the green, I said "no way did I hit the ball over the green! Wait... SHUT UP!"

And I ran to the hole and SCREAMED and jumped up and down! My heart was racing so fast, I was filled with so much joy and I could not believe it.

This was my very first hole in one. I have been playing golf for roughly about 5 years now both for pleasure and collegiate and I have used Titleist Pro V1's for about 4 years. I love this ball.

Thank you, Titleist!
