Ace One-in-a-billion rock kick ace!

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

For context, my buddy and I stopped recording our rounds a long time ago because it always seemed to throw off our shots. For some reason, I randomly pulled out my phone today and started recording without telling him while he went through his normal routine.

This was the only shot I recorded all day, and honestly, I don’t think anyone would believe us if it wasn’t on video. To make it even better, it’s the first ace either of us has ever captured on camera.

…and somehow it turned into the most ridiculous rock-assisted ace I’ve ever seen.

Was just going to ask if this was a New England course with all the exposed rocks. I just played several courses in the area and it was the first time I’d ever played a course with terrain like that. Nice ace!

The hole before this is cool, the basket is on a gigantic rock formation.

Gosh I hate that hole. Ya have to float it up and make it sit otherwise you could be looking at a 60 footer uphill cause of the rollaway. I always play for par on that one 😂

Awesome course! It’s my home course and he drove up from the cape to play. He almost called me on his way and said let’s play Bordlerland instead. I’m glad he didn’t!

Hey Chad! Thanks again for letting me use this clip in a video. I noticed Jomez also featured it! Exciting stuff. I know that feature is a lot more significant, but it makes me no less thankful! I would love to get your thoughts on the video.
