Sky High Hole In One

I was first to hit on the par 3, 6th hole. I used a 9 iron and sent it very high into the air. It was heading right toward the pin, landed softly and seemed to stop. Then it just disappeared. We all thought it was behind the pin, but a look from both sides of the tee box confirmed that the ball was no longer on the green surface. By the time we got to the green it was clear that the ball was in the cup!
