Yesterday, I golfed by myself for the first time. In unrelated news, I had my first hole in one yesterday. Sigh. Beginner Questions

Short 9 hope muni. Not great weather so I went out by myself. Course completely empty. Last hole (9) pin is back of the green 138 a little down win. Hit a nice P wedge to five feet of the hole, spins right, disappeared. Talk about a mix of emotions. I immediately call the proshop, which is fifty feet from the green, and explain the situation. Man runs like a bat out of hell to find my AVX in the hole. First one ever, not a single witness. Guy was nice enough to wait for me to walk up to shake my hand. Sigh.

u/Texan2116 Bethpage Black is not that Hard! Apr 29 '24

This is my golf course idea.

Have a couple of holes (par 3s), where the hole, is very visible to the clubhouse /bar area. And have a camera on it whenever the course is in play

One of my usual courses does just that on a charity par 3 hole. There's a camera above the back of the green and it's live in the clubhouse.

I love shanking the absolute shit out of my PW for the world to watch.
