The Gunter family are new members to Pine Lake. Regan, the youngest child in the family at 9 years old, has only been playing for 4-5 weeks and just recently took a lesson from Laura. Regan was playing at The Divide and encountered the 3rd hole, a 113 yard par 3. After a little consideration Regan decided to use her trusty 7 wood and after striking it sweetly watched with her Dad as the ball fell into the cup.

What a great story......Well Played Regan!

During the Junior Club Championship on Sunday, August 22nd, Chad Cox has his 2nd Hole-in-One of his career and it happened on the same hole he had it a few months ago...#3.  Same club and pin in the same location....it was almost like a deja vu all over again!  According to Chad, he said as he stepped up to the tee, and saw the pin in the exact same spot (158 yards) as it was when he had his first hole-in-one, he decided to hit the exact same club he did before....his 7 iron.   Much to Chris "lil J" Jones and Matthew Brightwell's surprise, they watched as Chad "pushed" his ball into the hole for an ace!

Way to Go Chad!!  Good Thing you Pushed it!!

On Sunday, July 25th, while playing at the beach, Wayne Gibson had his first career Hole-in-One.  This notorious event happened on the 16th hole at Wild Dunes on the Links Course.  Mr. Gibson grabbed his brand new 9 iron out of bag, that hadn't been hit but maybe 3 times, and flew his ball right into the hole!  He is wandering if it was the club or the lessons from Luke....we think it was a combination of both!

Way to Go Mr. Gibson!

This was no ordinary Friday afternoon at Pine Lake Country Club.  While playing with Greg Garman, "The" Ernie Lambert and Mike Foley (the "witness"), it was stated that George Ledermann hit his 3rd shot into the hole from 125 yards.  Rumor has it, he grabbed his 4 iron from his bag (which he thought was a 9 iron) and hit the shot of his life!  They all watched in pure shock as the ball rolled up the fairway and into the cup for an Eagle 3!

Congratulations Mr. Ledermann!  Keep up the great work!

What a great way to spend Easter....playing golf with your buddies!!  We are not really sure whether to believe this one or not, as his wife had one right at 5 months ago to the day, and he was playing with Bob Sim, Ed Rand, and Curt Moore, but according to all of them, David Vergoz has his first ever Hole-in-One!  This blessed event happened on Hole #16, which was apparently playing 175 yards that day.  Mr. Vergoz retrieved his 5 iron out of his bag and proceeded to skip his ball across the pond which then ended up in the bottom of the cup??

Way to go Mr. Vergoz!  That is Amazing!

On Sunday, March 7th, while playing with Gary Wojciechowicz, Karl Grubb celebrates an eagle on Hole #7.  He was a mere 195 yards away from the flag, so he grabbed his 3 hybrid.  The wind was a little in his face.....  They all watched in pure excitement as his ball rolled into the hole for a 2.

Way to go Mr Grubb!  Keep up the great work!

Believe it or not, there has been some people playing golf....January 20th, was one of those few "opportune" days.  The lucky gentlemen that were playing with Vince O'Connor were Barry Watson and Skip Copp.  The event for the day was "Closest to the Pin" set up by "Cappie" Dennis Forsloff.  The blue tee marker on hole #12 was located right around the 184 yd sprinkler head, so Mr. O'Connor decided to grab his ole faithful 3 wood out of his bag since the pin was located towards the right middle of the green and he wanted to make sure he would win the Closest to the Pin award away from "THE" Jimmy Boyles.  He used one of his brand new golf balls given to him as a Christmas present by Glen Horne with "Bagger Vince" printed on it.  The group watched in pure astonishment as his ball hit the green,  shot up the hill, paused right at the crest of the hill, then started coming down towards the flag and finally coming to rest at the bottom of the cup for yet another ace.

Way to go Mr. O'Connor!!  Keep up the Great Work!!

UNC-Chapel Hill freshman Caleb Little was home on break Sunday December 27th when he scored his first ever hole-in-one!  Caleb is the son of Mark Little, who had a hole in one on #16 back in May of this year.  Caleb walked up to #3 which was playing roughly 155 yards, grabbed his 9-iron out of his bag and proceeded to hit the shot of a lifetime!  His father and playing partners Al Willis and nephew Lucas watched in amazement as the ball jumped right in the hole.  Caleb, a little too young to "celebrate" this moment, will never forget this years school break. 

CONGRATULATIONS CALEB!

On Sunday, November 8th, while playing in the "Skins" game, Jack Wells had his first ever Hole-in-One!  His playing cohorts, Jim Dean, Don Puckett and Warren Leary watched in pure astonishment as Mr. Wells grabbed his 5 wood out of his golf bag and hit his infamous "slap shot" into the hole.  This all happened on Hole #12, which was playing a mere 190 yards that day.

Congratulations Mr. Wells! 

On Wednesday, November 4th, while playing in the 18 Holers last event, The Turkey Scramble, Karen Deierhoi aka The Dutches, makes her first ever Hole-in-One.   This momentous occasion happened on Hole #6, playing 172 yds that day, so The Dutches decides to grab her driver.  Her playing companions, Jody McCann (Goaty Jody), Pat Lowry (Putting Princess), and Lee Forsloff (Captain) watched in amazement as her ball was gobbled up by the hole!

Way to go Ms. Deiehoi!

It was just an ordinary Saturday Catfight, so Mrs. Heath thought, on August 29th.....While playing with Carol Burnett, Michele Kelly, and Sue Wilson, Diane Heath recorded her 6th, yes 6th career hole-in-one!  Believe it or not, this happened on Hole #3...since we haven't many aces on that hole....  Mrs. Heath grabbed her favorite club, her 3 iron, out of the bag and then proceeded to watch as she knocked the ball in the 135 yard hole!

Way to Go Mrs. Heath!
