    Sure you are. Why would you say that? Aren’t holes in one the proverbial holy grail? My last one was in 1986; I’m due!

    I can imagine. Imagining is all I have because its never happened; alone or otherwise.

    I would absolutely love to have a HIO by myself. Don’t care what anyone else thinks about my HIO. Will admit next goal would be HIO with a witness.

    why? I will take a hole-in-one any way I can get it, Cam would go on from the tee box, if there is anyone in shouting distance I am calling them over.

    All I have gotten is a simulator hole in one, I have come so close so many times, I WANT IT!! lol

    HIO by myself would be perfectly fine..it means I don’t have to abide by the lame ass rule of buying others a drink.

    And odds are my wife will be in the cart watching anyway.

    Had a “hole-in-one” on a second tee shot once. It killed me—maybe the only time that happens and it went down as a par on the scorecard!

    I would patiently wait on the tee box until the next group pulls up, so they can witness the glory that I have created.

    Ive heard that once or twice in my day

    I did it…at 16. I don’t expect anyone to believe me, I don’t believe it either.

    Yea, I dont have an issue with getting a hole in one by myself. I have nothing to prove to anyone I haven’t proved to myself. Nice bird, op. Tweet tweet.

    It happened to me. Luckily some guys teeing off on a teebox adjacent to my green saw it and notified the staff which had a glass of champagne waiting for me when I finished 18.

    I got my first eagle by myself

    My best friend got a hole in 1 playing by himself. I always told him it didn’t count if he didn’t have a witness. Friends can be such assholes

    I had my first and only hole in one playing by myself, couldn’t be happier 🙂
    A really short par 4, 190yds over some trees or you can play the dog leg.

    I didn’t realize the ball was in the hole until I had already decided to drop one near the green. Chipped it close, and while lining up my putt I saw the first ball in the hole.. starred at it for probably 2 minutes in disbelief.

    Sure nobody was there to celebrate with, but I will always remember that feeling and memory..

    Me and my dad played through a foursome Sunday on a long downhill par 3 and I bladed a six iron to about 2 ft but it looked like it could’ve gone in had it kept going but I was almost glad it didn’t. If I get a HIO (especially my first and potentially only), I’d much rather it not be in a solo round or from a lucky mishit.

  16. Unspeakable_Evil

    Maybe it would’ve gone in if the hole was an actual circle

    I often imagine a hole in one when playing wit—by myself.

    I’ve never had a hole in one but I often play by myself and have had this exact thought. A hole in one is meant to be experienced by more than one person.

    Made my hole in one playing by myself. Luckily there was a group of 5 old men sitting in their carts right behind the green waiting so I could play through on the next hole. Proceeded to top my next tee shot right to the ladies tee box, due to my hands still shaking. Luckily it was a par 5 and managed to save par.

    I get it.

    I hit a par 5 in two earlier this month (guarded by water with a magnificent 5 wood that stopped 15 feet from a front pin).

    The thing is, I’d accidentally tapped the ball when setting up my second shot and it moved about an inch.

    I just missed the eagle putt and I too was glad it didn’t go in. I’ve never eagled a par 5 and if the first time it happened I’d technically made a penalty, I’d always know the truth and it would have bothered the hell out of me.

    Ray Charles could make that putt. Probably more often than me. 🙂

    I had a shot just like this when I first started golfing. Maybe my 4th time ever playing. To this day have not gotten a hole in one. Been playing for about 3 years now

    Came that close to a HIO once, but it was my second shot, the first had disappeared in a creek that paralleled the hole I was playing. Had witnesses though, so a par and some laughs, and after all, that’s why I play the game.

    When I am playing solo, I yell at those balls on par 3’s “don’t go the fuck in”. So far they have all listened….

  25. Totally made an ace playing alone. Bought a hole in one trophy to mount the ball and everything.

    An ace is an ace.

    I had one even closer, literally an RCH from dropping in. It was in a tournament and al four of us were like “How the fuck did that not go in?”

    There’s a name for a hole in one while playing by yourself.

    >! A hole in one !<

    GTFO

    Hitting a HIO solo is much better than never hitting one
