Hole-in-one Madness!


Yeah, its possible. This lady proved it recently in a big way. In the very first shot of her life, she hit a hole-in-one! Give it a go, even if you haven't golfed much, or ever. Only the 2nd hole at the Elks Club doesn't have a hole-in-one prize and we'll probably make it the "Closest to the Pin" hole anyway because of that.

With the statistical wizardry of our blog laureate, and the largest survey of hole-in-one odds, the current probability of somebody in our motley group scoring an ace is (40*4)/12,500 or 1 in 78! The least they would win is a new set of clubs, and $10,000 would just about make up for your loss in your 401k (for those of you in your early 30's, anyway!)

Hat tip to Wizbang!
