The Most Difficult Hole in the World!
Shooting a hole in one is one of the most challenging feats in sports. Every golfer dreams of acing a hole at least once in his or her lifetime and requires both great skill and plenty of luck.
Golf Academy Student Bret Melson made a world record hole in one on a 448yd Par 4 at the Ko'olau Golf Club, located in Oahu, Hawaii. This golf course, which is the home course of the former Golf Academy Hawaii Campus, is notorious for being "The toughest golf course in the world" and this hole happens to be rated by the club as the "toughest hole". With a slope rating of 158 and a course rating of 74.4 from the gold tees, there is not much room for argument. The deep hardpan bunkers, sloping fairways, deep ravines and thick jungle all around make it a golfers nightmare, one every golfer should challenge at least once in their lifetime. Bret Melson is the first person ever to ace this hole!
Previously, the longest straight shot hole in one in golf history was hit by Robert Mitera on October 7, 1965 at the Miracle Hills Golf Club in Omaha, Nebraska where he used his driver to ace the 10th hole from 444 yards.
