I was home babysitting our grandson and received a call late in the day from my cousin asking if I had time for 9... my lovely wife was nice enough to take over babysitting duties ... I was hitting the ball well 4 pars in the first 6 holes... when we got to 7 I pulled the 7 out of my bag and swung away, we could see it was a good shot but unfortunately the base of the flag was impossible to see from our location so we did not see the ball go in the hole. When I got to the green I looked short then long for the ball and when I didn't see it I said loudly... "I think I got a hole in one" to which my golf mates laughed said "yeah right" and asked me to get off the green so they could hit... I walked to the hole and sure enough there it was.

I did not know never having a hole in one before that it would cost me a night of buying beer... me the guy who got the hole in one literally had to buy all night??
