    ...or such?

    I haven't.

    Once bowled a 277 (Palisades Lanes) and the closest I've gotten to the pin is about 3" (granted, that was on a 100 yd. hole @ Lake Oswego Muni. :D )

    I hit a hole in one at Sandalee. I think it is currently the 6th hole. It's a short par 3 that has a deep gully as a hazard. I hit a lucky shot that hit about six to seven feet behind the hole and it rolled into the cup. I'm not much of a golfer and didn't deserve to have such a thing happen to me.

    Pali Lanes? RIP.

    I've been playing golf since I was 2 years old and have yet to get an ace. I've been close plenty of times, though!

    I hunt a lot so I've had one hole in several.

    Palisades Lanes. Was about a 140 average in the Junior League there.

    I remember a run-in I had with Officer Jimmy Walker in the parking lot.

    2 hole in ones on my local really short pitch and put...each hole is 50 to 70 yards. I actually have the course record! I grew up playing the soo many times. I shot a 19, 8 under in 9 holes. 2 pars, 6 birdies, and a hole in one, no mulligans. It was sweet, had 4 witnesses :ghoti:

    Heh, we probably bowled together, then. Remember our coach, Peggy Taylor? Hubba-hubba. Quite the sight to encounter at such an impressionable age. :wub:

    I've been closer to a ace on a par 4 than an ace on a par 3. :( Scramble event at Arnold Palmer's Bay Hills Course in Annapolis, I was the designated "Big Hitter" on a ~320 par 4, and drove the green to about 2 inches. Tap-in eagles are kinda fun.

    Holed a couple from around 75 or so on par 4's at Capitol City in Olympia (both on 17, kinda exciting).

    Nothing close on par-3's, though.

    Took a bucket of balls out there with some co-workers last May around sunrise. Made myself look pretty retarded! Out of a whole bucket, only stuck the green about 5 times!
