I have been playing golf consistently now for 6 years or so and am grateful to say that is all it took to achieve the lifelong dream of scoring a Hole in One. It came on December 16th, 2023 on a course called Old South Golf Links in Bluffton, South Carolina. It was on hole #17 out there which was playing from 155 yards that day. With a stiff breeze into the face I clubbed up to an 8 iron. I wasn't playing particularly well this day but on this swing everything felt perfect. That Titleist AVX came off the clubface low but it began to rise as it got hit by the wind, but one thing was for certain it never left the pin. It landed about 3 paces short hopped what appeared to be one time and rolled in. I went pretty crazy, running and jumping around the teebox, throwing my hat as far as it would go. Leaving my club and hat on the ground I hopped in the cart with my witness (my then fiance now wife) to make our way to the green. After a quick photoshoot on the green, heading back to the tee for my belongings, It was time to tuck that ball away, write down a 1 and head to #18. Being the last tee time of the day I was spared any damage that could have taken place at the bar. It wasn't until the next day I got to go back up there and inform them on the news. They were generous enough to gift me a shot glass with the course logo and my name up on the wall of fame. Here's some of those photos from that moment in which I'll forever remember.
