Royal Links Golf Club located in Las Vegas, NV (Henderson) is a tribute course with each of it's 18 holes inspired by a different famous golf hole on a course where The Open Championship has been played. Among these are #8 at Royal Liverpool - 621 yard Par 5, the famous "Road Hole" # 17 at St. Andrews, and of course the "Postage Stamp" # 8 at Royal Troon. Arrived at number 8 "Postage Stamp" hole, the back portion of the tee box was being maintained so the back tees were at about a medium range. Distance was 140 yards, it was a relatively calm day with no wind that would affect the shot. The pin was set about 7 yards off the back and center on the width. My club choice was between a full Gap Wedge that would land soft and dead or a low Sand Wedge that would hop and have some spin to stop it and work against the slight down slope on the last section of the green. Given there was no wind I went for the low SW shot. I knew that because I de-loft the club to achieve the lower trajectory, I would have enough side spin to move the ball off-line once it hit the ground so I changed my intended starting point about 2 yards left of the flag. I figured the ball would cover about 135 - 137 through the air take about a 5 ft hop (slightly to the right) and stop or come back and to the right about 3 feet. Both of this options left me with a pretty good look at a birdie putt. I didn't really consider a miss because that would've been thin or fat, neither of which would leave me with a hope of getting up and down for par, so it was all-in. Executed the shot as close to perfect as possible. Started the ball on the intended line and curved exactly as I pictured it in my pre-shot routine. With the adrenaline pumping through a swing I knew had no room for error, the ball did, however, take a higher trajectory by about 5 yards which in turn gave me about an extra 2 yards of carry. As I carefully watched the ball flying through the air, I was trying to recalculate and figure how this would affect what the ball would do on the ground. Before I could even put a full thought together, the ball landed, 3 feet from the cup about a half foot to the left, it took what I imagined was a 3.5 foot hop, rolled back to the right, and disappeared into the cup. In my mind I knew it was an Ace but since I was playing with 2 guys I had just met when we were grouped together, I help my excitement just in case what I had seen was in fact my ball rolling through the back of the green and into trouble. I approached the green from the back just in case and didn't see my ball so I walked up the back and there it was at the bottom of the shallow cup (due to COVID the cups are only about 2 inches instead of the regular size).
