Today I hit my first hole in one, after 23 years of playing, I was able to pull a 8 iron on the Par 3 @ Gloucester Golf Club, my home course, and played a beautifully fade into the hole, the shouts as it was in the air was “that’s got a chance” followed by joking that it could actually be a hole in one, this green is guarded by 3 bunker and the green is not quite viable, so I didn’t know until I got to the green side, that’s where me and my friend looked at each other while are brains was trying to compute where else my ball could have been other than in the bottom of the cup..

As we started walking faster, into a jog then faster it was then we both noticed my ball was indeed sat in the bottom of the cup looking up at me..

The joy and utter euphoria is unexplainable and the scenes being tossed around by my mate while he couldn’t contain his excitement was amazing..

What a feeling, what a moment to share. And something I will always be able to think about in any moment that will guarantee a smile to appear on my face.. THE AVX 360 AIM (2025) BALL ️
