Second day on a trip of a lifetime to Oakmont as a guest of member Neil Weismann and a lifelong friend Greg Kampe. Hit my new Titleist AP1 7-iron on #6 at 172 yards-middle left pin. Ball lands on front right and tracks 20' right to left for what seemed…
Playing with our regular group at our home course Greenbrier Country Club - Chesapeake, VA. Perfect day for golf, no wind and the course is in great shape. We also had rain a few days earlier making the greens very soft. Came to number 12 a short par…
I am 15 years old and I was in a Midwestern junior tournament in Kansas City last week at the Adams Point golf course. On hole 9, a par 5, I made a 2--a double eagle (albatross) using a Titleist Prov1x. My second shot was a 205 yard 7 iron which jarred…
Made the turn at -4 at The Philadelphia Cricket Club - Militia Hill and had this feeling it was going to be a special day. On hole #11, playing 127 yards, I hit a 9-iron to a short left pin. It was later in the day so the sun was in our eyes. I knew when…
On the fourth hole yesterday, my buddy Lee nestled his tee shot within two feet of the hole. He was congratulated by our group on his fine shot, only to be one upped by my ace seconds later. Good times indeed...

My favorite personal hole-in-one story occurred a number of years ago at the short 8th hole across the pond at my local course. I was playing alone, but catching a slow group. So I waited for a single, whom I'd seen before but did not know, coming up…
On a sunny afternoon in a late Michigan summer a long time dream comes true. On September 20, 2016 I aced the 145 yard par 3, 11th hole at the Brea Burn Golf Club, in Plymouth. I hit a hit high shot (Titleist Velocity) that landed directly in front of…
As the rain set in we debated quitting but with rain gear on hit a five-iron on the Highlands 5th at The Players at Deer Creek in the cup. First hole-in-one after 25 years of golfing. The best part, the sincere happiness for me by the patrons in the club…
Two of my girls' golf team teammates and I were playing the Pecan course at Walnut Creek Country Club in Mansfield, Texas, in a qualifying round for an upcoming tournament. I approached hole #8 with my 7 iron, then changed my mind and used my 8 iron.…
