There NEEDS to be a follow-up video where Keffer doesn't leave the course until an ace ⛺ Prove if it's easier than the simulator! I'll even wager he does it within 1000 attempts.

[@wadepatton2433]

I've seen a YT'er hit 500 misses. But then another fellow got one on his 231st shot. He was going to hit 500 as well, but didn't have to. Miguel Angel Jiménez had two in one round.

Someone pointed out my swing getting shallow once, I realized that when I get physically tired I tend to stop lifting the club up as much as I should. You can see that in your video really clearly, the difference between the swings at 7:45 and 8:00. Probably explains a lot about why the shots get less consistent over time than you would expect, just physically wearing out.

[@RandomGolfClubFilms]

High praise, thanks!

[@robsengahay5614]

What you said about hitting hundreds of balls being the opposite of dialed in is so true. I have made the mistake on the range of going back for a second bucket of 100 balls because I sense I am on the right track but have gone backwards fast. It seems like you managed to clear your head, make the right change to the pin placement, recover your positivity, and get the job done. Great job.

[@RandomGolfClubFilms]

I'm glad I'm not the only one

[@MattMcConaha]

This type of thing is common for basically every activity. There is a warm up period, a sweet zone if performance, and then a deterioration, followed by cycles of regrouping and deterioration, where as time goes on the sweet zones become shorter and farther apart. Taking breaks helps reset you back to the earlier mindset that results in longer and more frequent sweet zones. I don't golf, I'm just here for the interesting video idea, but I've experienced this in literally every other activity (playing instruments, competitive gaming, solving puzzles, etc.)

[@trailblazer77]

had to hit like after the 11:54 mark.. this was pure entertainment! Cheers for the diehard dedication and editing.

[@trailblazer77]

You should of had a Fitbit or whatever everyone is wearing that keeps track of your heart rate. I'm sure hitting that many balls for that long it took years off you life. 💯😂 well done again. 🍻

[@thegamingrelish9272]

The frustration of losing your swing is real. Today I hooked every shot and I thought it was my grip but then when I got home I did a practice swing and realised I was probably swinging my club completly wrong. I felt like I had never played golf before

[@Wilburbruh]

Keffer content! Every member of this RGC team is incredible.

[@FriedEggsGolf]

For Keffer... "The first golf glove patent was issued to The Rawlings Company in 1885."

[@johncollins298]

Hands down, favorite video. Speechless, laughed and (maybe) shed a tear when the ball went in. This is golf!

[@RandomGolfClubFilms]

Haha, thanks John! Had a great time shooting and cutting this video.

[@mrwibbly]

i'm glad you discovered that the best way to make a hole in one is with a rolling shot. so many people hit these big high shots that drop and stop, those won't go in. you gotta roll it up. it's why so many shorter hitters get holes in one. they hit a lower shot that rolls up and the hole gets in the way. hitting high shots with spin cripples your chances.

[@MattyK-USA]

Bingo. I was thinking this at Keffer through the screen when I saw all those early high shots.

[@daviddeloney5694]

Congratulations!! You're absolutely right......it is very hard to hit a hole in one. I've been playing 40 yrs...have one!

[@alfiembra]

55 years and none 😢

[@WilliamHemmingsen]

I have done this twice on my sim. The key is to find the right par3. Also play one club higher with 75% swing. This way you get more roll. Unless you can rip back your shots 6 ft, its almost impossible to get a lucky HIO. Its better to take a club with less spin and have it roll to hole. The more the ball rolls on the green, the more chances of getting lucky.

[@richardcarter-hounslow785]

True, at my home club we have a 120 yard par 3. If there's no wind a I normally hit a gap wedge and it's a pretty receptive green so it stops dead. I always seem to get a better result on that hole generally if I hit a soft pitching wedge.

[@georgeburrell3791]

Changing the pin felt like cheating

[@MrRidge7]

Yeah i found that to be cheesy.

[@rubbertoe8942]

They need to get Keffer on the real hole #7. After this I think he earned a round at pebble.

[@RandomGolfClubFilms]

I agree!

[@RaulGolfsClips]

[@jessehughes3877]

I feel your pain. I've had two hole in ones on a Skytrak but when I did a hole in one challenge, couldn't make one to save my life. Had to give up and come back another day to get it. Had a shot the other day that stopped 8" away on the right track and felt just like you did on the lip out. Congrats and enjoy it!!

[@SirJohnLucas]

Bro! True story, Keffer caddied for me in a U.S. open qualifier a few years ago…. His FIRST time ever at a golf tournament and on a golf course. On the 2nd hole a playing competitor made a hole in one. Everyone’s all clapping and excited and keffer looks at me and says, “yo, does this not happen often?” 😂😂😂

[@mbravs]

Unbelievable. I think we all think we could do it. Probably not…great sticktoitness!

[@GoldenTeeTV]

This was fun to watch. Great concept and video

[@tyb3938]

My 16 year old son took up golf last year, got his first hole in on on Augusta 12th and his second on TPC sawgrass 17. Some cool holes to have hole in ones on. I also got my first hole in one on tpc 17. That is probably the easiest to get a hole in one on as if you hit that hill in the right spot in funnels down to the hole. We both got hole in ones on 17 on same day. Lots of high fives and yelling. Good times

[@vconc3pt]

"it ain't gone be that hard" - proceeds to shank hard right a few swings later lol.

[@philt6440]

The swing that finally got the hole in one had a much more controlled (slower) and shorter backswing and you were hitting down on the ball much more resulting in a straighter shot . Could see you were going to get it towards the end when comparing it to your efforts on day 1. Probably the best individual golf lesson anyone could give themselves as you were forced to correct a lot of your swing through trial and error. Oh and congrats on the hole in one 😁

[@RandomGolfClubFilms]

You're totally right. My ball striking was much more consistent after this video. Thanks for the watch! -KR

[@shadowprince4482]

The first time I ever went miniature golfing when I was a kid I got a hole in one on the second hole. I was so happy. It's been over 20 years and I don't think I've ever gotten an ace in mini-golf since. Similar thing happened the 3rd time I went bowling. Got 7 strikes in a row. Then got 2 gutter balls and then only 3 pins on the final frame.

[@franidelaserna]

Amazing stuff Keffer. Now we need a whole in one from 200+ yards 👀

[@CarlVandenberg]

I've played golf at a pretty high level for 50 years (by high level, I was a scratch golfer for about a decade and have had a single digit hdcp for most of those 50 years), and I've NEVER had a hole in one on a regulation golf course. HOWEVER...I have holed out twice from over 200yds, one from about 210yds on a long par 4 and one from about 230 on a par 5 for a 3 (after hitting drive in the trees and punching back out into the fairway). I've had plenty of hole outs from the fairway from various yardages...just never on a f'n par 3. 😏

I love the channel and appreciate the huge effort to get it the ball in the hole with a shot from the tee box. Is this a HOLE IN ONE? No, it the 1736th shot.Hole in ones are one shot on a hole in a 9 or 18 hole round. ( on a simulator or real course). Again I’m not wanting to cast hate on the effort achieved here. Thanks

[@TankNDaily]

It get's less dialed because your mind is so focused on getting the hole in one and not the muscle fatigue. Then frustration sets in.

Bud. Ace probability is (rh-lh)/10000. where rh is the height in inches of the right hip at the top of the backswing and lh is the same measurement for the left hip. Maximize this probability on each shot.

So I understand, Keffer began aiming at one pin - no dice. He changed the pin location and then got the ace? If so, that doesn't count in my book. You play with the cards you're dealt not the ones you give yourself. While the HIO is still a great achievement, you've set the pin up to receive your better shots. You still completed the challenged - which is amazing. But not in the manner I expected.

[@RandomGolfClubFilms]
