Default Do Hole in One's Count??

I am of the opinion that we are not playing "real golf" right now.
A ball that hit's this makeshift cup is a great shot but on a 3 par, it's not a legit "hole-in-1" IMO.
Well, that is, unless you do this!!!

Local grounds rules overrule the PGA rules

What difference does it make, not like you’re playing in Tournament.

Point is...
If you're a golfer, you know how rare ace's are.
Now raise the cup up 2 or 3 inches and try.

But, how does one get the ball up over the part sticking out of the ground!

No opinion on the hole-in-one but props for the homage to very early Cheech and Chong, Tyrone.

That's what I'm saying. This ball (unbelievably) flew into the pipe.

That is the second ball I have seen drop in the hole inside the pipe. Hole in one is not as rare in TV as other courses. But that is a very lucky shot inside pipe, and hole in one.
Of course a lady this morning hit the pipe today so hard ricocheting off the pipe screaming into the sand trap. Foursome all jumping up and down hole in one. Had to wait for them to retrieve ball out of sand, and place it by the hole for pictures.
