      This actually happened to me, I nuked my drive about 320, but in order to hit the green in 2, it was a blind dogleg right. I hit it and honestly in the air I thought it was going to be long and off the green. Walking up we spent 5+ minutes looking everywhere for my ball, couldn't find it, until someone went to pull the pin and there it was. Would have been nice to see it go in after hitting it but with the drastic dogleg (and no TV cameras) we'll never know.

    • @cdh79
      @cdh79 2 роки тому +11

      Hasn't happened to me, but I witnessed other players making a hole in one while they were on a solo-flight on two separate occasions.. each time they looked around to see if there was a witness, and each time I shouted to them that I had seen it and cheered. They were really happy someone did see it and we talked about it after our rounds in the club-house. Making an albatross and nobody seeing it must be painful.

    • @icon2731
      @icon2731 2 роки тому +6

      Closest I've come to doing this is holing out from about 150 on the second shot of a par 4. I was by myself when it happened. It would have been cooler if there had been witnesses, but I know that I did it, and I texted my dad about it immediately and he knows I wouldn't lie to him about such a thing. He and I can share that and that's good enough for me.

    Summer 2020 I was playing Oakland Greens in Norwood ON. My wife was driving the cart and enjoying being in nature while watching me play. I get up to a 500 yard par 5 with a storm rolling in with insane heavy winds helping off the tee. Pumped a cut down the fairway that left me 115 left to the pin. Took out my 54 degree and hit a great shot that one hopped and went right in the hole for an albatross. I freaked out with glee as my wife watched in bewilderment as I sprinted to the green yelling "I got an albatross OMG". She took out the camera and helped document the event. What a feeling. I have 2 hole in ones but they didn't compare to the rare albatross I had that day. You never know when something special on the golf course will happen.

    Hole-in-one gets more hype, but the albatross is a lot more impressive. It requires a great drive, then something equivalent to a long hole-in-one right after. The scorecard agrees I suppose since it gives a -3 rather than the -2 of a hole-in-one.

    I just realized 2 things.....#1 an Albatross and Double Eagle are not the same (that really needs no explanation simply because of the math). #2 I now know that if I want to make an Albatross that my best chance is if I am wearing either a Pink or Blue shirt. 85% in this video were made wearing one of them, lol.

    Had my one and only Albatross at Deer Ridge Golf Course in Bellville, Ohio on hole #4 - 485 yard par 5. Driver - Driver (Off the deck with big fade) in Tuesday night golf league. That one got me a skin!
    ***At the time I was a 5 handicap. Unfortunately, I had to give up the game of golf due to my back issues. Now all of my focus is on Pool & Billiards.
