My first ACE, hole in one
Hey guys, got a hole in one today at Sorcier, my first but hopefully not my last. It was on the second par 3 on the front nine, #7 before you go back to the clubhouse side. That hole is appropriately named "L'Enfer" or "Hell". Today's pin was 194 yards and on the left side of the green.
I hit a pretty nice 4 hybrid into a good breeze and the ball was heading just right of the pin and once it bounced and rolled onto the green it started to turn left and rolled right in!! It was also the first time that I decided to try new Pro V1x balls, I guess I should have tried them along time ago.
I kept the ball and even the broken tee I used, I guess I'm a little excitedLefty Lucas

Congrats! Enjoying the feeling. I got my HIO ball in ones of those clear plastic boxes sitting on my work office desk. When I need to go to my happy place, I just look at it

Congrats Buddy----you will remember that for a long time to come You are now a member of "have you ever had a hole-in-one club" You stand there and describe it in great detail---the club--the ball--the tee--the weather. Been there and it still never gets old after 7 years-----------still looking for the elusive 2nd
Does the 2nd hole-n-one come easier ?

Well done Luc. Tough hole, and tougher with a left pin location.

Congrats Luc. Tough hole . . . Bravo!!!
If you think it's hard to meet new people, try picking up the wrong golf ball.

Thanks guys, still shaking my head in disbelief. Never expected it even if I knew it was going to be good, just thought to myself, "Hey, good chance for a birdie"

Funny thing, my wife always says to me when I leave to go play "Hole in one baby" and this time she did not but I went ahead and did it anyways, just another example that I do not listen to her

Congrats, Luc! Do I get an assist for supplying the Sun Mountain Phantom bag that took good care of that 4-hybrid?

Congratulations. If you want to do so, you can visit Titleist website and register your hole-in-one with them. They will send you a nice hole-in-one bag tag because you used a Titleist ball. Had one on my bag since 2006 when I got my ace. Cheers, Mike

That's cool Jeff, thanks. Lisa does hit some great shots. I have not heard anything from Sorcier but would be nice to get a bag tag for it.

You can also have it embroidered on the bag---that way it won't be lost---also an excuse for a new bag
Does the 2nd hole-n-one come easier ?

Equinelle gave me a bag tag too when I got my HIO. Gatineau did the same for my buddy's HIO last year...except he uses it as a key chain
Hope Sorcier will do the same for you.
