Kiralyn scored her first ace on a serious course at Birchfield last Saturday.  Hole 4, 268 feet. Short tee to short basket.  The guys on the next tee saw it and cheered loudly.  Kira cheered somewhat less since she and Kelsey were playing to the long baskets.   O0

So, what color is that one? I always thought a black ace was when it goes into a different hole's basket. ^_^ Assuming its basically the same line, Congrats Kira!

I don't know whether black aces are limited to aces on baskets on other holes or if black aces include an ace on the wrong basket when a hole has more than one basket.  But they wrote "Black ace!" on the scorecard.

Hole #9 at Adler with a Star Teebird on Friday the 13th.   >:D

That is career Ace #5 for me.  I believe my last one was in 2011....so it's been a while.

Have not been around the boards for a while now but still getting out and playing.  Had my first ace on Sept.5 at Shorewood park in Shorewood Il... Hole 7 229ft right along the road.  Threw it just like i imagined slight hyzer over the road landing about 5 feet in front of the basket with the perfect skip in with my brand new dynamic disc suspect .

Me, at Squirrel, because Diana needs to work on upshots.
#2, a 122 foot hyzer shot with a ten year old soft Magnet. 

Squirrel aces are somewhat cheap, like Cubby aces, but somewhat legit, because we play the course like its a course, and we don't count practice shots as aces.  I shot a 35 for 18 holes, 17 deuces and an ace.

Lincolnwood #3 - about 190', Titatium Wasp.

Even less impressive is the fact that the course has lost a lot of trees to the Ash Borer, so ALL of the guardian trees on what used to be an attractive but still easy hole are gone. My shot probably would have hit at least one of them.
thanks,

Could I possibly play any worse if I didn't practice putting??
