  1. On June 14th, 2015, I was 8 years old, I had a hole-in-one from the reds tees. I was golfing with my dad and grandpa at a golf course in south Texas. It was about 130 yards. I hit a lucky worm burner with my driver and we watched it role up onto the green and drop in the hole. My grandpa, who's a big time golfer, and my dad got really excited. I did not know how crazy a hole in one is. Now I'm 18 year old who golfs 2-4 times a week. I look back at this moment and think about how crazy it is.

  2. I am pretty sure that your Ace at 8 years of age puts you in a super-super-super small club (My guess is that in the history of the world, the number of 8 year olds who have got a HIO could be counted on your fingers and toes--world wide. That is truly amazing. (I just tried to look up that specific statistic and got nothing... But I did find this statistic from more than one reputable site: "...the odds of an amateur golfer making a hole in one on a par 3 hole are roughly 12,500 to 1. " So if you factor in the fact that not a ton of 8 year olds are out there... well, the odds must me astronomical. Like 1 in a Million --(...so you're saying there is a chance" --*stolen from the movie Dumb and Dumber.
