How did you make your first birdie?

[DVS]

Mine was during my first year playing. On a 198 yard Par 3, I tee'd off with a 3i into the rain. I knew I hit it well, but after 150, lost sight of the ball in the drizzle. I thought it was lost into the woods, but when we got halfway to the green, I saw it was pretty close to the hole. When I got to the green, it was siting 2 feet from the hole! Tapped it in for birdie!

I was so happy, I gave my playing partners a sleeve of brand new nike balls (which were expensive for me at the time).

Since then, I have gotten may birdies, but you always remember your first. :P

I honestly don't remember my first birdie, may likely have been the same hole I had my first eagle. I do remember most of the eagles and the one Ace.

My first birdie and first eagle were both chip ins. That's all I remember.

Can't remember my first birdie. My one and only eagle was a chip in on a very short par 4, dogleg right. I unintenionally cut the corner due to the HUGE slice I had at the time, it somehow made it through the trees. Was about 20 yards from the green and chipped it in.

on a Par4 at stone mountain, you first lay up about 150-160 yards and I did just that. After that I had about 200 yards left over a lake into the green and so I tried to do it with a 7i but topped the ball really bad. The ball only got up a couple of feet, hit the lake, bounced up, hit a rock and landed on the green about 25 feet from the hole. I made the putt for birdie.


I'll always remember that.

My first birdie was on a short uphill par 3 on the back 9 at Ancil Hoffman. 100 yard sand wedge to 4 feet. I'll never forget it. Hell, I remember my first par.

first eagle, holed out from 148 with an 8 iron on a par 5... one bounce - and in!

I'm not sure of my first birdie either, but I know it was over 30 years ago...

I'm pretty sure it was on a par 3, about 170 yds. We lived in Nebraska at the time and I was in 6th grade. I hit a 3 wood to about 3 ft and drained the putt. That's the first really good golf shot that I can remember.

first eagle- drove the green to 3 feet, tap in..

first birdie- drove the green(different hole, same course than the eagle) and 2 putt for birdie

the thing about my birdie though, IT WAS ON MY FIRST EVER ROUND OF GOLF, and i had only been to the range once before that.. they call me a natural..

[ezra76]

I'm pretty sure it was on a midlength par 4, hit a drive right into the adjecent fairway and a 7iron to 6ft. That's the 1st one I remember and was pretty excited because I was playing with my dad.

How did you make your first birdie?

As soon as I make one, I'll describe the whole thing in detail.

First Eagle was a fringe putt from 20'. Played over trees just short of the OB. 7i from 175 to clear the trees ended up on the fringe and drained the putt

Don't remember my first birdie or eagle I haven’t had a eagle in three years. I’ve have had about 10 eagle putts this year and even missed a 4 footer

I don't remember my first birdie or eagle.

I do remember my ace like it was yesterday.
