Ace at 5!

7 September, 2008 (07:28) | Golf, Human Interest | By: ricjames

Most of we who golf will go our whole lives without sinking a hole-in-one on any course we play. (Putt-putt not included here, although there might be some who’ll never do it there, either.) Not so for young Drew Gray of Illinois. Drew aced the 5th hole at Yorktown Golf Club in Belleville, IL, and that’s something because Drew is 5 years old.

Now, it doesn’t really count for a standing because the course is a par-3 course, but I personally don’t care: an ace is an ace! Besides, even if the whole is only 75 yards, Drew’s gotta be – what? – 3 feet tall? Scaling that to my height would make that somewhere around 400 yards, an ace that would be tattooed on my chest for all time, I assure you!

Well done, Drew! Keep swinging!

I’m almost 45 years old and I’ve never got a hole in one.
Way to go Kid.
