On Saturday I was about 160 yards out (130 yards over water). Hit a nice smooth six iron. The ball flight looked very good, and I thought it was going to be a good shot. When we crossed the bridge and got a look at the green, the ball was about six inches from the cup. When I walked up to mark the ball, there was a large indentation in the lip of the cup.
I assume the ball hit the lip and bounced out. Not a bad birdie, anyway.
It wasn't a holie, and I don't know if it was a polie, but it was exciting to see the result.
sounds like one that counts to me! I had a 'lip out' near ace yesterday, and I'd count that too! Better than a pole-ie, but not quite a hole-ie. Had 180 uphill to a very narrow green. Got lucky really, as I hit it a touch left of the green, got a nice kick and watched as the ball lipped out and finished less than a foot away. Really thought I had it for a second there, as did my playing partner it sure looked like it dropped as it lipped out!
gotta love those tap in birdies!
