Hole in One Hats

A hole in one is the one golf moment with a full set of traditions. Amateurs make an ace on a par 3 at about 12,500 to 1, and with roughly 450 million rounds played a year, nearly 150,000 amateur aces still happen. The custom around them is rich: a signed scorecard from a witness, a shadowbox or engraved plaque with the date, course, hole and yardage, an aces club at the local golf association, and the old debate over whether you buy the clubhouse a round. One golfer on a forum admitted he was in the bar by himself with an official unofficial ace and the club pro signed his card. These hole in one hats give the ace-maker an 18-hole acceptance speech for a single swing. HOLE IN ONE and HOLE IN ONE CLUB are the head-term badges. The rest play the bits: no witnesses, then witnessed and notarized, the headstone request, the 24 handicap with an ace, the wedding forgotten, and HOLE 7. PAR 3. STROKES: 1. STORIES: 400, the scorecard that tells it straight. Every design is custom embroidered on an unstructured dad hat, ready for the playing partner who watched it drop or the spouse who buys one within a week of the shot.
