I made my hole in one at Bent Tree Golf course during a match play event. I was going into hole 17 even with my match opponent. I had about 136 to the pin with a bunker obscuring our view of the hole. I hit a 52 degree Vokey sm7 wedge onto the green. I was aiming short, saw it hop and let my opponent hit.
The par 3 was cut in half by the cart path so we all had to walk up to the green a ways. My opponent was a few paces ahead and said “Brandon I think you went off the back.” I thought that was odd because I was sure it was short so I glanced towards the rough behind the bunker. No ball.
As he approached the cup, he looked in, looked at me and shook his head. He tossed me my Pro V1 from the cup and I am sure the clubhouse could hear us celebrating.
2 hole-in-ones within the same year. My first was June 20th, 2021. My second was June 10th, 2022.
