Have you ever done this before?

Tonight I had a bit of time, so I decided to go hit a bucket at the driving range of my local muni. I took PW, 8-iron, 6-iron, and driver, and a couple of al...

Great shot rsvman2! Hope you have a bunch more. I holed out twice at 2 different driving ranges. one was 100 yds. & the other was at 150 yds. The first time i couldn't believe it. I have holed out 7 times for eagles but still waiting for my first ace!

Anytime you hole it off the green it's a great thing. Keep up the magic.

rsvman2 Practice hitting to a target, now you tell me. 😎 The ranges I've been barely have anything to hit at. The course I live on a desert range that slopes seriously up hill. Nothing to aim at.

To be fair to New Mexico, there is lots of desert and scrub land here. More than Israel.

I thought it was interesting that there are holes to hit in on the driving range. All of them around here that I've been to have flags just stuck in the ground, there is no hole at the base of them. Sometimes they have a round "simulated" green, but no hole. So I have aiming points, but no way to make a hole-in-one on the range.

My experience also. And the grass on the "green" is longer than fairway grass

johnnydoom I'd venture to say, there's cups out there, otherwise the flag wouldn't stand up. We have cups in all our target flags and yardage markers, on our range. Just that the cups are grown over, more than likely.

rsvman2 Sounds like you are buying the forum beers. hahaha pretty cool though

Not a hole-in-one at the range but this kind of relates. I was at the range with the guy who was introducing me to this addiction and he hit one within 3 - 4 feet of the flag (tough to tell exactly) and the shot measured 114 yds from our station to the center of a slightly raised island green. The grass on the "green" was long so this isn't like sticking one on a real green.

He smiled and said "think you can hit one inside me? I'm buying if you do".

I hit my 1st shot under pressure to within 2ft & he bought.

LBlack14 You are probably right, but they aren't visible in any way that I can tell.

I only have had 3 eagles in my life. One was a hole out from 160 yards on a par 4.

You owe us a round of drinks. 😎👍👍

sdandrea1 Nice try, but like I said in the original post, this one doesn't really count. 😁
