Which is rarer

I've been playing for over 30 years.

Plenty of eagles.
One albatross.
Zero aces.
 
I've been playing for like 10?

Three or four eagles.
Zero albatross.
Zero aces.

I would say the albatross would be the most rare. Chances per round are pretty low.

A quick google search says the odds are:
Ace = 1 in 12,500
Albatross = 1 in 6 million.
I think those odds are for amateurs. Pros are more like 1-in-a-million for an albatross.

I have 5 or 6 eagles, can't remember. No aces and no albatross'. Have come close on a few aces but the search continues.
 
1 eagle..... :(didn't even see it fall into the cup, bunker blocked the flag - couldn't find my ball and I jokingly said it must be in the cup.....also been close to ace(s) and fairly close to 1 albatross..:mad:

then again, only been playing for 6/7 years......
 
I've had a few pars over the 40 years I've played.
 
You may have one of mine........you're welcome.
