Hi, what are the chances of getting 2 aces in a "best of putting shots" and finishing off with a score of 372,286 points? Not me I hasten to add; just the guy I was playing. AND he's a hack. Hate to play him when he reaches pro eh...

it's rare but happens... I seen some 700k scores, so that's 3 holeouts I believe?

In all honesty I don't consider a holed putt to be an ace.

There is no golf hole anywhere in the world that has the tee on the green, therefore any putt is at least the second shot and therefore not an ace.

Sorry if that seems harsh, just the way I see it.

By the way pal, you won the club of choice.

I do not consider any shot an ace unless it is from the tee.

As for the putting contest, what do you say, "I HIT AN ACE'...................................pity it took 15 shots to get to the green.

Any CTTH game where the ball is holed from anywhere apart from the Tee blocks isn't an ace IMO.

And certainly not best of putting ffs!

Oh and l've actually had two aces in the space of a couple of hours, same hole, Kiawah#8, different pins, one a RG, the other a weekly strokeplay tourney!!
