Who here has aced a hole 400' or longer? I played on a card this weekend with Pittsburgher, Dave Olcott, who aced the 409' Hole #13 at the Timberlink Fly 18 course in Ligonier, PA. He threw a beautiful Valkyrie tee shot which played downhill and hooked around the corner toward the hidden green. It was not until we rode our golf carts down the hill that we discovered his driver was inside the basket! Nice shot, Dave! :cool:

Hole #11 at Tom Pearce in Oreegon is listed as 403, aced it five minutes before the tourney started! It probably was closer to 385-395 but I'm not going to argue with the course :) Reached with a Champ Eagle on a big hyzer line that got some help from the cross wind.

I have also aced Hole #8 at McClure! Either the summer of 2000 or 2001. I'd have to check the disc for the exact date. Is it really 415'? Guess i'm a member. :D

Aced Hole 5 at Anderson-Dean Park in Harrodsburg, KY with a champion leopard. Not sure how long it is but i know its over 400 (i think it might be closer to 500). Has about 100 foot in elevation change and winds between 20-30 mph on a calm day.
