So most of you may or may not know my bloodline, but I go by Asylum on IRC. Some may know me by McDermott, Absolut, Aftershock, Warsteiner, JakeSully and so on. Anyways I decided to share with you all something crazily remarkable that I accomplished the other day. (Golf fans will enjoy this, if you're not it's still a fun fact.)

So on 06/17/12 (Father's Day here in the U.S. and where applicable) I went out for a round of golf with my father, grandfather and uncle. I've played golf for about 14 years (Only two rounds a year until this year. So far I've been out five times.) Mostly playing courses around Ohio we went to Valley View Golf Club in Lancaster Ohio.

On the 13th hole at a distance of 175 yards, yours truly, hit a hole in one aka "Ace" with a seven iron with no tee. It is my first hole in one and the only one I've ever seen in person. It was also the first time my grandfather or father had ever seen a hole in one in person.

On top of that, for those who don't know. As long as you get it attested and speaking with the course you can register your Hole in One and be put into the PGA Hall of Fame. So I'm proud to share this with a community I've spent roughly six years growing with. Mafiareturns can proudly say it has a Hall of Famer playing! Hahaha.

If anyone else has accomplished the feat please tell! Most didn't know this about me but I truly enjoy golf.

Report Post Tip

Also the odds of the average player making this shot is 12,000:1, a low handicapper is 5,000:1 and a PGA professional is 3,000:1. I shoot about a 13 handicap overall.

Report Post Tip

That is actually a really cool thing to do! Congrats on your hole in one and on Father's day no less!
