Just a suggestion....send an e-mail to the makers of the club & ball with details of your h-i-1, some have a hole-in-one cap which they will send. Congratulations.

Well done, Beanbag. Gees, sucking it back into the hole is a bit rich for us, though.

I trust you still have the ball.

When I made my one and only (still haven't repeated it, 10 years later), my club mounted the ball on a little trophy stand and engraved it for me. New Brighton may have an arrangement where they do the same thing. See if you can get the card, and try to get it laminated, too.

Even if they don't, go and see your local trophy maker and get it done yourself. You may never do it again!

Hole in ones are so overrated, I really don't see what the fuss is all about.

I can't believe any ball could spin on that green, based on the amount of duck dirt covering it. (Admittedly, I've only ever played it as the first group off the 10th on a Sunday and it's not a pleasant putt to line up.)

cant help god given talent lol

based on the amount of duck dirt covering it alot of widelife around that area E.g swans and birds
they have sort of fixed this by putting small plastic snakes around the green area, its 100% better than it was ,they have done this to all of the holes that were affected,

still have the ball and will be mounting it in a trophy
