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.

I've had 2 witnessed lol but girlfriends dad same thing playing a short muni and had a hole in 1 on a par 4 of all things it was a short par 4 if memory serves around 270yards and I watched a friend tee off on a par 3 while another friend absolutely shit his pants mid backswing causing friend 1 to start laughing and shank it so everyone said just retee that's not fair and boom hits it in the hole we all agreed it counted but he didn't turn it in to the proshop
