    ....from which you've holed a shot? This morning, I almost--by eight inches--eagled a hole from 113 yards. What's your record for actually nailing one in the hole? (and, yes, sexual double entendres are perfectly aceptable answers, if they're funny)

    Not really long. 50 yards which was 4 years ago. Unfortunately it was for a bogey... but had it not been for that hole-out, I'd have had to wait another day to break 100. Finished that round with 99 and my first time in the double digits.

    265 yards, 2-iron for a birdie (knocked my first tee ball out of bounds). Hit one to 4 inches once on a 345 yd. par 4 too, not sure if it scared the hole or just broke behind it.

    Do hole-in-ones count? If so, my longest was 192 yards (pin was in the middle so I went with the card yardage)...the other was 185 yards. From the fairway, though, the longest I've holed was maybe 70-75 yards.

    I've watched my good friend Brad hole one from about 200 out on a long par 4. That was pretty cool. I've also ringed the cup from about 190 out on a par 4, but it didn't fall.

    Around 40 yds. I hit a flop shot to a tight front pin and it one hopped into the hole.

    From the tee was 178 and from the fairway was 210 for eagle. No Albatross yet.

    From Streamsong Red within the last week... 125 yards on hole #10. OK, that just HAD to be said! :)

    That last one still puts a smile on your face, eh Jay?

    Look at the picture I posted... the smile still hasn't left! It was just an amazing course and that heightened the experience of watching that ball spin back and drop.

    Around 40 yds. I hit a flop shot to a tight front pin and it one hopped into the hole.


    It is now 67 yds. I did it on the same hole as before but to a back pin. It one hopped then hit the flag stick and dropped.

    Awesome ! Go get another one. I know you're pumped now. I was, after my 1st. Then I got two more in a 2 week span. Congrats !

    235yds with a 2 hybrid for birdie. Hit my drive on a par 5 into some trees and had to punch out sideways to the adjacent fairway. I also have an albatross on a short par 5 from 149.
