I have a couple of good stories about HIO.
I was playing with a guy once and we came to a 200-yard par 3. I was very proud when I hit a four iron to four feet. One of the guys I was playing with was a higher handicap player. He takes out his driver and hit this low slice. The ball hit a large oak tree to the right of the green and caromed to a stone wall behind the green from where is richocheted into the hole for a one. I made the putt for two and lost the hole.
I knew a guy that was playing Pine Oaks Golf Course in Easton, MA. Pine Oaks is a nine holers and he was playing 18. The sixth hole is a par three right in front of the clubhouse. He made a hole in one on that hole both times around.
