What does it mean by hole in one?
In golf, a hole in one or hole-in-one (also known as an ace, mostly in American English) occurs when a ball hit from a tee to start a hole finishes in the cup (Source Wikipedia).
What are the rules for a hole in one?
The USGA recommends that a hole in one be considered valid: If made during a round of at least nine holes, except that a hole in one made during a match should be acceptable even if the match ends before the stipulated round is completed (Source NationalHoleInOneRegistry.com)

The odds of making a hole in one are 12,500 to 1.
Why to be afraid making hole in one?
Traditionally, every golfer who makes a hole in one buys the drinks afterwards. I was lucky enough to get a hole in one, hole #13, 156 yards at Guayaquil Country Club Ecuador because my club is inviting the player for a consumption of $300 USD. Thank you GCC!
What is the average length of a hole in one?
The average length of a hole in one is 147 yards. Anyway making a hole in one in any distance is a lot fun even it is most the matter of luck. I made other hole in one in a Par 3 9-hole course in Driving Range in Guayaquil Ecuador, a short hole of 110 yards. My latin friends know how to celebrate as you can watch in the video Jerry Abate made in the tournament.
Hole-in-one with friends is pure fun
“George hit it nice and high, and it went in. I was literally speechless when my friend George Coles from London UK made the hole-in-one at Guayaquil Country Club Ecuador, hole #4, 148 yards.”
