Hole in one

Ethan C — Wed, 20 May 2026 20:19:00 GMT

I was playing Ives Hill Country Club in Watertown New York and it was hole 6 138 yards out so I took a pitching wedge, I struck the ball really well and the hole was blind and we saw it bounce once, And I looked at my dad and said this could be good so we drove our carts up there and there was no ball on the green so I went to the cup and my ball was in the hole for my very first hole in one.

First Hole in One

Parker D — Wed, 20 May 2026 19:24:20 GMT

My parents were coming into town for a parents weekend event at my University, and decided to play a round with my dad at the main college course in the area. Stepped up on the tee of the 4th hole after seeing my dad put one right in the middle of the green, but it's a pretty difficult hole for me so I just wanted to hit one straight. I did exactly that and pured one right at the flag, but didn't see it come down because of the glare. As we we're approaching the green I expected to see 2 balls, however there was only 1. I jokingly said to my dad that one of us got a hole in one, so I hopped out and looked for the other ball. The absolute last thing on my mind was it being in the hole, but after looking around the green I saw a pitch mark 6 feet before the pin. This was when realization set and I decided to look in the hole. I heart sank and just felt a rush of adrenaline as I simply couldn't believe it.

Long story short, I can say getting a blind hole in one with my dad will be something he and I cherish forever as getting out on these spontaneous rounds of golf with him means everything. Funny enough, I always play my worst rounds of golf with my dad, so having this moment to share with him means the world.

My 4th, all with totleist

david E — Wed, 20 May 2026 18:36:06 GMT

I just made my 4th hole in one, all using Titleist balls. The first was in 1993 using a Tour Balata 100 ; the rest with ProVs. My first ball had no marks, second had one dot, the third had two dots and the last had three dots. I’m now using 4 dots in anticipation of my 5th. See image. Thanks Titleist!

05-19-26 Hole-In-One at Hole #2 - The River Club in Suwanee, GA

Jeff T — Wed, 20 May 2026 14:59:42 GMT

05/19/26 I was participating in a charity fundraising event benefiting the College Golf Fellowship organization at The River Club located in Suwanee, GA. Hole #2 played 165 yards and was insured and offered a prize of $1,000 credit for purchasing REVO Sunglasses for a hole-in-one. I was playing with three members of our church including our Senior Chaplain. I played my Titleist Pro V 1 custom number 68. Thanks Titleist for making a great golf ball and thanks to my Senior Chaplain for the good vibes!

Hole in one

As soon as I hit it I said it's right at the flag landed rolled about 10 ft. Into cup .My friend Richie never witnessed one he was more excited then me.

40yrs in the making, my 1st HIO!

Andy S — Wed, 20 May 2026 14:22:59 GMT

Wow guys - I managed my first hole in one late yesterday 183yrd into a stiff NW wind, T200 5 iron (thin-ish - or shall I say maybe a groove too low!) drawing in, an AVX #2 ball

Myself & playing partners didn't see it go in given the lay of the pin position, the lads on the adjacent tee did though and were jumping up and down, it was only half way down to the green that we realised what they meant, then we all started jumping around!

It was amazing....

Connor C — Wed, 20 May 2026 03:15:51 GMT

I was golfing by myself and hit a really good shot the green goes downhill. I saw it land it was short but it took a big bounce. I wasn't all excited because I assumed it went off the back I went to look for it and couldn't find it. Im not an insane golfer so I went back to the cart to take a drop. I randomly thought that I should look in the cup. I looked in the cup and there it was.

MY FIRST HOLE IN ONE

Greg Richards — Wed, 20 May 2026 01:26:15 GMT

Today I hit my first hole in one, after 23 years of playing, I was able to pull a 8 iron on the Par 3 @ Gloucester Golf Club, my home course, and played a beautifully fade into the hole, the shouts as it was in the air was “that’s got a chance” followed by joking that it could actually be a hole in one, this green is guarded by 3 bunker and the green is not quite viable, so I didn’t know until I got to the green side, that’s where me and my friend looked at each other while are brains was trying to compute where else my ball could have been other than in the bottom of the cup..

As we started walking faster, into a jog then faster it was then we both noticed my ball was indeed sat in the bottom of the cup looking up at me..

The joy and utter euphoria is unexplainable and the scenes being tossed around by my mate while he couldn’t contain his excitement was amazing..

What a feeling, what a moment to share. And something I will always be able to think about in any moment that will guarantee a smile to appear on my face.. THE AVX 360 AIM (2025) BALL ️

Hole in one

Mark S — Tue, 19 May 2026 21:01:27 GMT

I was playing with my wife and another couple at Hammock Bay in Naples, Florida. On the second hole, a Par-3 playing 140 yards, I hit my Pro-V1 with a 9-iron. One bounce, trickled a couple feet then fell into the bottom of the cup! My wife and friends had never seen one so, needless to say, we were all pretty excited! It was my second hole in one, both with a Pro-V1 ball.

My First Hole In 1

Dane O — Tue, 19 May 2026 19:35:11 GMT

I wasn’t expecting magic. Honestly, I was just trying to finish the round strong after a long workday.

I stepped up on the par 3 15th, took my swing, and immediately felt it come slightly off the toe. Not terrible, but not pure either. Still, the ball started tracking straight at the flag the entire way. Everyone in the group watched it climb, land soft, and begin rolling toward the pin.

It drifted just behind the flagstick.

I figured I’d left myself an easy birdie putt.

Without even thinking much about it, I bent down and started fixing my divot while the other three guys in my group teed off. Then I pulled out my rangefinder to check how far behind the hole the ball had rolled.

But I couldn’t find it.

At first I thought maybe it had trickled off the back of the green. I scanned left. Right. Nothing.

Then one of the guys said, “Dude… it might actually be in.”

That’s when everything changed.

My heart immediately started pounding. The walk to the green felt unreal, like my brain was trying to catch up to what was happening. Every step made it feel more possible, and somehow less believable at the same time.

Then I looked in the cup.

There it was.

My first hole-in-one.

I pulled out my phone to record taking the ball out of the hole, and you can literally see me shaking in the video. Not normal shaking either — my whole body felt like it was vibrating uncontrollably. Adrenaline, disbelief, excitement… all at once. It felt completely surreal, and honestly, it still does.

The craziest part is that earlier that same week — Easter Sunday — I’d been outside looking for Easter eggs and found three four-leaf clovers stacked right next to each other. Three of them.

Maybe that was the sign.

Because sometimes in golf, and maybe in life too, it’s better to be lucky than good.

First Swing of the Day and Year!

Ryan L — Tue, 19 May 2026 18:37:41 GMT

First swing of the day and year. No warmup. Shotgun start at Hole #2 at Bent Creek in MN. 122 yards away so took a nice easy swing with a 9 iron. It had rained a lot the night before so the greens were wet. One bounce and in! First Ever hole in one.

3rd. hole in one

Steve R — Tue, 19 May 2026 14:12:27 GMT

I was playing golf with my wife at Village of Rosedale G.C. in Brampton, Ont. Sunny 26C It was Hole#6- 135 yards. Saw the ball land on the green and 2 other men on the next T-Box saw the ball go in the hole and yelled.....It's in the Hole. Very excited for a 79 year old Senior Golfer. BTW: Love the Pinnacle Soft Golf Ball have been playing Pinnacle Soft for 5 years. You can't get a better all round ball .

"Mission Accomplished"

Mike D — Tue, 19 May 2026 04:55:59 GMT

Just over a month ago, I had a Vokey SM8 and two SM6 wedges - both very worn down - until my friend generously got me a 56 SM11 for my birthday a month a go. He was tired of me "swinging skillets" as he put it. Just prior to my vacation in Mexico (where a lot of golf was to be played), I rounded it out with brand new 50 and 60 SM11's. Oh, the joy of new grooves! Fast forward 9 days from my last round on that trip, and last time I'd swung a club. I'm visiting my Mom in SD while in town for a conference, and knowing I'm going to be playing with my friend (same one who bought me the 56) on Thursday after the conference, I realize I can maybe play Mission Bay tonight under the lights, and minimize the rust factor (FYI, that shows you how long it's been since I played there...they no longer have lights, and apparently hadn't for years). A different coworker who lives nearby wants to join for a quick (the back) 9 before the sun goes down. On the 13th hole, I knock down my PW on a 115 yd pin to about a foot. Kick in for birdie. While walking to the 14th hole, I remark to my coworker/friend (relatively new to golf) that "This will sound super douchey, but I'm kind of glad that didn't go in. I have a few aces and they're all at stellar courses. I'm not sure I would want to get one here and mess that record." My friend, who is an agreeable guy, laughs it off while I shoot the distance on 14. 94yds, middle pin. Grab the new 56. Send up a nicely flighted ball drawing toward the pin. Lands about 4 yards past and right of the pin, bounces another two feet and bites, hard... zips back on a southwest line, directly into the cup. No more than three minutes of putting that statement "out there." While the golf Gods have a great sense of humor, I still enjoyed the heck out of it. The feel and control of fresh grooves digging into my ProV1, and actually seeing a targeted shot do what I had in mind and actually see it go in (last two were blind)...that NEVER isn't cool regardless of where it happens. Best part, we'll have a great story at the conference where I'll get to thank my buddy for helping me get #4 with that new 56 he got me. Given his intention with the gift and the name of the course, I'd say it's safe to say...mission accomplished. Thank you, Titleist! 5/18/2026

52° from the tee

Travis B — Tue, 19 May 2026 02:58:19 GMT

I love my sm10 52° for those in-between shots, but never used it off the tee. Came to a 93 yard par 3 and that's the spot for my 52, so I decided to go with it. Hit the ball exactly how I wanted, landed about 3 feet from the pin and rolled back and dropped in the hole! Never thought I'd see it happen, especially with first time using it from the tee.

ALBATROSS

Thomas M — Mon, 18 May 2026 21:21:37 GMT

Hello all

Made an Albatross on the 18th hole which is a par 5, slight dog leg to the right, 475 yards at Salem Hills this past Friday. Using a driver I hit a 290 yard fade landing 185 yards from the pin in the fairway. Used my 6 iron to hit another fade landing 15 feet, just left of the pin and rolled right into the hole!!!

Started off on the back 9 and funny enough the round started terrible. Was 11 over within the first 3 holes. Started drinking some beers and immediately began shooting my typical bogey golf. With the albatross I didn’t break 50, got a 49!!! Haha. Shot 96 total. Wish I just bogeyed the first 3 holes and would have had a decent round!!

1st Hole in One at Historic Muny in Austin Tx

brandon a — Mon, 18 May 2026 19:44:54 GMT

It was the Sunday of the 2026 Master’s and one of the board members invited me out to play Lions GC early in the morning so we would be able to watch the final rounds from the Master’s leaders. Feeling the nostalgia of Muny & The Master’s I tee’d it up on the first par 3 (front 9), hole #4 - 143yrds to pin, I hit my stock shot fade to perfection, with pin playing up just above the slope. Faded off the bunker side to kick straight in to hole. Golfers on #1 green saw, #2 tee box, #3 green, groups on #5 green, #6 tee box and the group in front barely walking off ALL heard my group yelling when ball was coming towards the hole, so all together 25+ saw the ball or saw my group going bananas as the ball disappeared into the hole!!! Such a perfect moment for my 1st. - Brando

Green course

Chase B — Mon, 18 May 2026 19:07:44 GMT

Dear Titleist Team,

My name is Chase Bocchi, and I recently made a hole-in-one at Bethpage Green Course on hole 12, a 280-yard par 4. I hit it over the trees, and somehow it ended up going in. It was one of the craziest moments I’ve ever had on a golf course.

What made it even better was that I did it using a Titleist Pro V1. As a high school varsity golfer, I’ve always trusted Titleist golf balls, and making a hole-in-one with a Pro V1 made the moment even more special.

I thought your team might enjoy hearing the story, and I wanted to share it with the brand that was part of the shot.

Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Sincerely, Chase Bocchi
