I don't have that many rounds in, but with the number of times I've been within a few feet/hit the pin/lipped out, and the number of times I've holed out on non-par 3's, I feel like I definitely could have had one or two. Just on the percentages.

I like my 6 times of being lucky.All hole in ones are nothing more than luck...
I knew there was more than just one reason to dislike you....now I have 7 reasons6 holes in one since 1975 ... first one when I was I think 12. Pure luck
it's just youHave been playing since I was 15, and am 56 now. Carry a low handicap, practice a lot, and break par several times a season. Have numerous seasons where I have easily played 100+ rounds. But let’s say during the last 41 years, I have averaged 60 rounds a year due to family, deployments, kids travel baseball, etc, that’s a rough wag of about 2400 rounds. That’s approx 9840 par 3s and still NO damn hole in ones.
On a side note. Playing as a single this past season at a local course, I was paired up with a threesome. At the first par 3 of the round, a hole that measures 187 yards, the guy with the worst swing of the group steps up to the box. In fact, Charles Barkley swing looked good compared to his. The hack pulled out his 3 wood and gave it a wicked slash. The ball starts off about 10 yards left of his line and no higher than a foot off the ground, the worm burner starts working it’s way back to the right at about 90 yards and rolls right into the cup. Turns around and says, ”that’s number 4”. I don’t think he broke 110. Simply unreal.
Anyone else play as many rounds over their life and still shut out or is it just me?
The more I play, the luckier I getNever had one and only been close a handful of times, but I’ve witnessed 3.... 2 of those came within a week and were random people I was paired with
Think stories like this are legit?Florida man makes three holes-in-one in five days: 'I just have had a lot of luck'
Jim Wolklin had three of a kind from Feb. 12-16 at Heritage Bay Golf & Country Club in Naples. Three of a kind as in three aces. “Just a wild time,” Wolklin said last week. Golf has…golfweek.usatoday.com

Lets get out and do some golfing!!!!Playing since I was 17 and I am now 51. I have never witnessed a HIO but I have had a ball come up 1 inch short of one. Probably the closest I'll ever come.
Whether it would be my playing partners or myself It would be awesome to see.
