June 10th playing a 4 ball 2 day scramble, on the 2nd hole i was the 4th to tee off the front seniors tee box. Flushed my pitching wedge, to 3 inches, and we thought we saw it bounce and then it was no longer visible. My daughter was selling refreshements between holes 3 and 6 and heard our commotion so we yelled at her to check the cup for us. She confirmed a ball was in the cup. Upon approaching the green, and collecting my ace, my youngest brother was putting close by on hole 17 to witness the celebration. We went on to shoot -8 that first day of the tourney. This was my first and so far only HIO!
