Upadate on Some Holes-in-One

Last month, on July 3, Mike Coyle, a former club champion just now getting back into serious golf since his retirement, aced No. 6, with Julie Howe as his witness.

Quite a feat, acing No. 6. But for sheer hole-in-one accomplishment, you gotta hand it to Travis Stephens, who aced No. 6 on May 15 to go along with his hole-in-one on No. 8, his two on No. 12 and one on No. 16. Only No. 14 has yet to escape Travis’s deadly ball-striking.

By the way, your ASMC contributes $100 to an open bar tab every time a member has a hole-in-one.
