Hole-in-One, Double In Same Round Files: Mason Nome Edition

Congrats to University of Texas golf commit Mason Nome (2019), who made an ace and double eagle in the same round. It was John Wooden's feat and that of only a handful of others many decades ago.

Nome posted this scorecard of the round, which also featured a double bogey just a hole after teh two on a par-5. The Golf Gods waste little time setting us straight!

Hole in one and double eagle in same round!

Mason also posted a tremendous trick shot many weeks ago that I hadn't seen...

But did it really happen?!?

A couple weeks ago guy in our gangsome hole out a 3-wood for an ace on a long par 3, and then about 10 holes later he holed out ANOTHER 3-wood on a par 4 for eagle 2.

All joking aside, has anyone ever heard of anyone, ever, holing out two full bore 3-woods in the same round???

I once lipped out on the 18th, a par 5, for eagle that would have given me an eagle on a par 3 a par 4 and a par 5.

I'd settle for one of each in my life; probably too much to ask of the golf gods.
