2 guys in our foursome didn't want to play because of the rain. There was a break in the rain so me and my witness went out to play 9 holes before the rain came back around. I triple bogeyed the hole right before the hole in one and I am usually relieved to have a putt for par on the hole that I got a hole in one on because I tend to pull the ball on that hole. I opened up the club face to prevent myself from pulling the ball and my first thought when I saw the ball in the air was that I was at least going to hit the green. My buddy tells me "hey that's going to end up in a good spot" and when it landed we both watched it spin back and slowly roll into the cup. We ran into another 2 some at the bathroom on the next hole and they told us they were only going to play 1 or 2 more holes because it was starting to rain. I told them that I got a hole in one and needed to play 9 to make it official. They replied, "We'll meet you in the clubhouse for our drink". Word circulated about the hole in one and when we completed our rained out 9 holes there were 25 people in the bar waiting to congratulate me and get their free drink. Thank god I pay $1 a month for hole in one insurance.
