not in a tourney but at my local course in march 2006 aced hole 8(130 turnover) then aced hole 9(220 hyzer) 5 days later aced hole 8 again birdied 9 and then aced hole 10(150 open)
the funny part is the first time i aced 8 was off a limb and wedged through the cage.

I know of a few multiple ace tourney rounds but none of those were in a row. I have also heard of multiple people on one card hitting aces on the same hole. I've personally had that experience in casual play... dunno if that helps your research :)

Many, many moons ago during a Circular Skies over McKinney tournament there was a player who aced a hole.....then threw the same disc on the following hole...and aced that one, too! :cool:

I heard that Mitch McClellan's brother Clint, did it before. Don't know if it's true, but I wouldn't doubt it.

Wow, if I ever did that I'd be getting a lottery ticket on the way home for sure!

Rock Searle had back-to-back aces during the 2000 Worlds in Ann Arbor. I think it was #5 and 6, Hudson Mills Monster, Am tees.

At BG Ams in 2006, in Am2, I threw a shot and failed to reach in bounds. The last guy on the card hit an ace and I followed it up by hitting my retee for a circle 3 :P Doesn't quite count, but it was pretty funny at the time.

I saw a guy get his 1st and 2nd ace back to back. It was pretty funny because after the 1st one he called his son and told him they were tied up and then 5 minutes later called again to say he was 1 up.

i've often wondered how/why some people have so many aces and seeing these distances it might make sense... do people really play on courses with lengths like this a lot?
not belittling the fact that this happened though... pretty cool to have back to back aces no matter what the distance (well as long as its not a jump putt or something ;)

Many long courses have short tees with distances like that.

West Meadowbrook 2007
Kevin Gaskins, Jason Myers, and a couple of other baggers are playing a cash money round.
We step up to hole 7 (short pads) which is about a 200 ft shot which offers a hyzer route (easy), an anhyzer route (trickier), and a shot down the middle offering about an 8 foot gap (sick)...
Kg Steps up and aces the anhyzer route...I give him a dollar for his effort...I step up and ace it straight down the middle and pure...He hands the dollar right back to me...this is the only time that I have witnessed this in 20 plus year of playing golf!!!

an ace up the middle is def. sick on that hole!
Closest I've come to seeing that was a few years back I aced and then Schweb hit the same basket right after me.

Saw it happen back in the WOLF days at Black Mt. Ku calls lone wolf on second hole and proceeds to ace the hole. I believe it was Kurt Powers steps up behind him and aces. Thanks for the ceesh. We had two aces on our card this weekend in Asheville, I banged out #13 then Howie throws in his last shot of round on #2.
Disclaimer: It seemed you either had to ace a hole or won one of the safari holes at black mountain to win ceesh

Last year at the Paul J. Sacco Halloween Disc Golf Classic at Vista Del Camino in Scottsdale, the tournament title sponsor, Paul Sacco, hit an ace on hole #1 over the water. The next guy up, Les Morris, hit the very same ace, same route. We were standing on hole 18 basket putting out. SICK!
