  Now, I know others will most certainly disagree with my point on this, but for me this has been one of the hardest awards to obtain. Always seemed late to the dance on this one so to speak and have feel short on the last few holes way more often than I care to count. Today though, I finally obtained this coveted award. Now, lets go after that double eagle one, it should be a bit easier. LOL

  Well done Bilko.  I got mine either yesterday or the day before.  I thought maybe it was a new award.  Managed to do it again today, but no award this time.

  Congrats, and yes this is a tough award.  Got the Gold on 9 with 460 rounds hitting all greens.  Only 89 on the full 18.  So hard to keep it going for a full 18 hole round.

  The Double Eagle award is the one that alludes me.  Still chasing my first with several chances .3-.5 from hole.

  I achieved this award yesterday, and couldn`t figure out why. Thanks to Sgt Bilko I now know why Cheers Sgt.Still only managed a round of 74 though due to crap putting.

  I got mine a few months back. I just checked and I am about a 1/3 of the way to the bronze, with 8.

  The hardest for me of course was the double eagle award. I could hardly breathe for a few minutes after I got it. If it hadn't been on the last hole of the round I might have had trouble finishing the round. According to Columbia's Double eagle club there are only 50 that have done it. But there are probably some that don't know about the club and have have made one and only they and WGT know. Also only 14 of us did it with a hole in one on a par 4. But again there may be more who are unaware of the club and have not been honored.
