HOPE TOWNSHIP, Mich. -- A 9-year-old boy celebrated what some golfers can only dream of, making a hole-in-one during his first round this season.
Porter Brown, who began golfing last year, went to The Gully Golf Course in Midland County with his father and younger brother Monday morning and recorded the ace on the 125-yard sixth hole.
"We were high-fiving each other, jumping around and screaming," Brown's father, Jay, told the Midland Daily News for a story published Wednesday. "We were really proud of the whole situation. It's really nice to have the boys out on the course this year."
The father and brother were the only witnesses, but course officials don't doubt it happened.
"There's no question in our minds that the boy got it," owner Jerry Clark told The Associated Press. His wife, Alma, was working at the time.

Ah...the great memories of a hole in one.
I want proof before I believe this.
Ah, I guess he can quit the game now.
It was exactly one year ago today (well sort of...it's a Thursday night league we do after work) that I scored my one and only hole-in-one.
156 yard four iron, into the wind with the sun in my eyes.
Never saw it go in. I was looking in the woods behind the green and my brother-in-law found it in the hole.
