  1. Hey Team Titleist, I wanted to share a hole in one story from a few weeks ago. Coming to you from Prestwick Golf Club in Woodbury, MN. After an awesome afternoon with my buddies, admittedly not having my best stuff and coming up short in our 2 man best ball match, we arrived to 17, facing a back pin, hurting wind from the left, and the rain had begun to fall. 4 iron wasn’t going to make it all the way to the back middle pin location. I knew I had to go with a choked up, punch 2 iron (U 500 driving iron) and can confidently say that is not a shot I would say is in the bag! I tee’d up a Titleist 5, ProbV 1 and hit last in the group. I hit a shot that even shocked me off the face as it drove through the air never leaving the pin. It hit in the front/middle of the green and starting tracking directly for the pin breaking slightly left to right. The ball came to rest and due to the inverted holes we could still see white from the tee box. My heart had stopped as I knew it was good, but, at that point, we concluded it was most likely resting behind the hole. I still had a Crazy feeling... We began pushing our carts up the hill and when we reached the crest of the hill just before the green, I could clearly tell that the ball was showing a half moon and was not sitting behind the hole. Me and the two buddies walking next to me stopped our carts immediately and starting sprinting directly for the hole yelling and screaming. We were hootin and hollerin as you could imagine and began hearing cheering echoing around the course from a nearby patio roughly 300 yds away. We made 4 new buddies as they starting yelling and clapping and sprinting for the 17th green. What an unbelievable scene. A feeling I’ll never forget. What a memory! Even for just a moment... COVID didn’t matter... nothing other than a lucky turn events and celebrating with my 3 best buddies, John Isder, Lars Larson, and Brent Haglund mattered. It wasn’t even about the hole in one but the joy that we felt together. Thanks for the chance to share the story! I’ve attached some fun evidence of the shot below Bryan Sandvig
