Ted,
A dear friend of mine has been playing golf for over 45 yrs., more than 40 of which has been as a single digit....he is currently a 5. Well, 4 yrs. ago we were involved in a very serious match and on a short par 3 he hit a wedge that look awfully good.... it was good, it went in on a fly, hit the bottom of the cup and came back out and up....about 20 ft. in the air. It finished about 25 ft. away.... he didn't get the h-in-1, and he didn't get the greenie. But the interesting thing is that would have been his first h-in-1.
On a side note, I play with a very good player here in NC who has also been playing for a long time, more than 35 yrs. He is currently a 2, will be close to 0 when the weather warms. Last May we were out and on the third hole, he hit it pretty close and I followed with a h-in-1, he picked it out of the cup and said "not only have I never had one, this is the first I've ever seen." We both birdied the next, and the 5th is also a par 3... I got another h-in-1. He could only shake his head. Shows how lucky they can be.
