I read this yesterday, I love how when you click the link and read the web link it says "Punk-Kids".

And who names their kid Hanks? It's like they wanted two, but since they didn't have twins they just decided to make him plural.

I hate both of them. I've been playing golf longer than the two of them have lived - combined - and them some. I'm still waiting for the ace. It's just not right. I'm a combined 4" from having three aces, including a lip out, but have never had one drop.

That is absolutely amazing.

You mean all three had to vouch under the honor system?

No video taken at Sawgrass?

Not to be a sister of Debbie Downer, but 17 million to one sounds like it was a bit far fetched.

The dad needs to video tape it from his cart next time. Hey he is a big time PGA fellow and he needs to market his boys better by film.

He said they just went out to play a few holes, why would he video tape a normal day? How was he to know that would happen?

Hey, he is the PGA marketer guru and he should step up his game if the boys are that good. We have two minors and one adult. Maybe he should add one to make a foursome. It sounds fishy at 17M to one for a 9 and 11 year old and then to hire a person to calculate the odds. If you are so closely linked with the PGA, you need to document better the claims. This dad is in the public's eye.

I dropped one in from 70 yards once, but never close for the ace.

I have had a double eagle on a par 5, holed from 232, but never a hole in 1. Hit the pin a number of times, hit the hole twice on the fly, once completely destroying the cup.

never been close for a hole in one, unless hitting the green in one is close....saw a guy hit a ball less than a centimeter from going in. if it had the nike sign it would have fallen in, it was that close.

Pfft you guys are weak! I've had at least 40 hole-in-ones and no less than 10 double eagles.































Of course that is on Tiger Woods for the 360.

What a waste. They can't even buy a round like everyone know you have to when hitting an ace
