No, really it’s not jealousy. I haven’t been on a golf course in 2 years - I don’t live for golf.

Thank you for the clarification of the 9 hole rule - I admit my error.

Part of my comments were jut being a pain in the tail - stirring the pot, but I really do take issue with the fact that we make these things a big deal.

It’s a kid who got lucky - it’s not an accomplishment. There is a difference. Don’t make it out to be something that it’s not. To me this is like telling someone who hit the lottery what a great investment plan they had...

Just luck? Are you shitting me. Every hole in one that has been made by everyone in the history of golf got lucky on that hole. Show me someone who consistently makes a hole in one.

Excuse me Mister Grinch, but a hole in one is always luck... be it an 11 year old kid or Tiger Woods.

The more you play and the more consistent you are at hitting the green, the better your luck will be. But every one that drops is pure 'luck.'

I just wonder if they made the kid buy soda pops for the bar after his round. ;~))
