Rarest score in golf? I don't think so.
I had a 75 on the eighth hole at my local course. Doubt there's been many of those.
Stu Pidas....Damn it took you that long, lol....(you'll like this famous quote)......Hank Aaron Quotes ... It took me seventeen years to get three thousand hits in baseball. I did it in one afternoon on the golf course. Hank Aaron.
bet you cant get a 76
I am honestly more surprised that you still kept counting 😀
I'm curious how that's possible
I can go out and do that tomorrow though... I can't go out and shoot an albatross at will.
Nice to hear 3 under par being called an Albatross rather that bs double eagle.
Did you even listen to it?
They said both of them
@@chezchezchezchez yes, on every single one😂😂
it's a super eagle
Must have been annoying when it happened to you and it was called a double eagle huh? I get it... frustrating
To me a double eagle would be -4 and thats a condor
Bubba Watson, 283 YARDS, 4 wood. LEGENDARY!!!
one of the best shots ever imo.
yeppers i see not humans !!!
what a shot =D
I did not realize golfing was so easy. I think I'll get some clubs and give it a go!
You sure?
Do you not get sarcasm? Haha
Do it mate usually only takes a few games til you get one
😂😂😂
Imagine hitting an albatross when no one was around to see it, I was playing single one time and joined up with a father/son duo ahead of me and two holes later made my first hole in one, it was nice to have witnesses...
Congrats!
This actually happened to me, I nuked my drive about 320, but in order to hit the green in 2, it was a blind dogleg right. I hit it and honestly in the air I thought it was going to be long and off the green. Walking up we spent 5+ minutes looking everywhere for my ball, couldn't find it, until someone went to pull the pin and there it was. Would have been nice to see it go in after hitting it but with the drastic dogleg (and no TV cameras) we'll never know.
Another imagine (& it's a fact). My friend made an albatross on the par 5 3rd hole only to be upstaged by our playing buddy having a Bell's palsy stroke 4 holes later.
🤯
Hasn't happened to me, but I witnessed other players making a hole in one while they were on a solo-flight on two separate occasions.. each time they looked around to see if there was a witness, and each time I shouted to them that I had seen it and cheered. They were really happy someone did see it and we talked about it after our rounds in the club-house. Making an albatross and nobody seeing it must be painful.
Closest I've come to doing this is holing out from about 150 on the second shot of a par 4. I was by myself when it happened. It would have been cooler if there had been witnesses, but I know that I did it, and I texted my dad about it immediately and he knows I wouldn't lie to him about such a thing. He and I can share that and that's good enough for me.

You should be on stage, that's so funny 🤣
I'm a life-long golfer . I've always thought a "double eagle" should be four under, not three under. Just call it an Albatross.
double birdie maybe?
Is that even possible?
@@mattcorcoran7082 Only on some very rare par 6 holes, otherwise it's a hole in one.
Agreed. I hate the double eagle term
4 under is technically called a Condor
Double eagle, albatross, whatever you want to call it, it’s a really big bird. Classic
Summer 2020 I was playing Oakland Greens in Norwood ON. My wife was driving the cart and enjoying being in nature while watching me play. I get up to a 500 yard par 5 with a storm rolling in with insane heavy winds helping off the tee. Pumped a cut down the fairway that left me 115 left to the pin. Took out my 54 degree and hit a great shot that one hopped and went right in the hole for an albatross. I freaked out with glee as my wife watched in bewilderment as I sprinted to the green yelling "I got an albatross OMG". She took out the camera and helped document the event. What a feeling. I have 2 hole in ones but they didn't compare to the rare albatross I had that day. You never know when something special on the golf course will happen.
Yea and a pig flew by and it's trotter hit you on the head and woke you up in time for Kindergarten.
I just hit a 240 yard albatross on PGA Tour 2k23...best shot I've ever made on the game by far...
The Bubba Watson and Camilo Villegas shots here were so good I had watch them twice.
Crazy but true. I have never had a hole in one. I had two albatrosses in the same week on the same hole at my club two summers ago. Almost the same spot off the tee. Same club, 5 iron from 195 or so. Couldn't believe the first one. Thought I was dreaming on the second.
maybe you were dreaming. maybe this is all a dream 🌚
Sounds like it should be a par four.
@@senator558it's 507 on the card but plays a bit downhill. Would be a very long par 4 but yes it's not a hard par 5.
"It's a really big bird." Lmao that was so funny
I never liked how us Americans call it a double eagle, I always thought an albatross sounded much cooler Haha. So, that's what I've always called it.... not that I've ever ben lucky enough to make one
It shouldn’t be called a double eagle anyways, as that would suggest 4 under on one hole.
I’ll always call it an albatross because it makes more sense and just sounds cooler haha.
@@timmyboy2495 100% agree, a double eagle technically would be a hole in one on a par 5 which apparently is called a condor and again, sounds much cooler than a double eagle lol
agreed. It's not like you call an eagle a double birdie. :)
USA disc golfers have always called it an albatross 😎
@Joe Barone me either! I also didn't know there are par 6 holes out there
th-cam.com/video/kL-O2VP4k9s/w-d-xo.html
From what I read, there have only been 5 confirmed condors.
Why do they call it a double eagle? It’s clearly a triple birdie
Hole-in-one gets more hype, but the albatross is a lot more impressive. It requires a great drive, then something equivalent to a long hole-in-one right after. The scorecard agrees I suppose since it gives a -3 rather than the -2 of a hole-in-one.
You could still hole-in-one a short par 4
It’s -3 if it’s a par 4 dunce.
@@iAmWinterCoat that's an ace
@@ifthereisawill hole in one and ace are the same thing
@@iAmWinterCoat lol, yeah but only happy Gilmore can ace a par 4! 😆
Respect for the albatross.
When I got my albatross I was 200 yards out. Hit my 4 iron and it looked good tracking. I couldn't see the hole at all so I had no idea I had just done it until I walked up. I couldn't find my ball on the green so I thought it rolled off. My buddy said check the hole and sure enough! I was thrilled!
Wow. These guys are good at golf.
Let's be honest, these were ALL the albatrosses from the tour.
Not at all. And they left out a hugely important one. Louis Oosthuizen #2 at Augusta in 2012 to give him the lead in the tourney!! Idk how that wasn't #1
@@alexrohrer151 yup I dont know why this wasn't featured
@@kingpye1890 I think it might be because technically the Masters Tournament is a private event and not sponsored by the PGA Tour
@@alexrohrer151 that's a major.
@@alexrohrer151 Masters is weird with allowing footage usage
Love your vids, keep it up
Waits for Condor reel
I've watched this video closely and studied the players' tendencies deeply. My takeaway is simple. Wear some combination of pink blue or purple in your outfit to increase your chances... You also have an outside change with grey lol.
3:24 Toad was out there cheering for that hole out
“It looks like a mirac-IT’S IN THE HOLE! IT’S IN THE HOLE!” 😎
@PGATour I had an Albatross today at BlackHorse - South #9! 3 wood - 233 yds out #AlbatrossDay
“double eagle, albatross, whatever you wanna call it, it’s a big bird” 💀💀
Why do they call it a "Double Eagle"?
Eagle is -2. Albatross is -3. Double of -2 is -4. A Hole In One on a par 5 is a Double Eagle.
That’s how I always thought of it, that’s why I always call it an albatross
Anyone ever done that? Hole in one on a par 5?
@@natecavender897 Yes.
It is very very rare.
Double bogey, double eagle,
I agree it should be called double eagle, sounds better
@@natecavender897 apparently, yes, and it’s called a condor.
Surprised to not see even 1 hole-in-one on a par 4. Has that not ever happened on the tour? I'd be surprised.
Not entirely sure, but, suspect that one of the ladies has done that feat, and killed 2 birds with the one shot!!!
Yes there have been multiple aces on par 4s on the pga tour but I'm not sure why they didn't show any.
I remember Steve Lowery getting one on the 16th (IIRC) hole at the International in 2002 to gain 8 points in the modified Stableford scoring system, but somehow Rich Beam, who was in front of him, managed to hold on and win, and Lowery finished 2nd,
I was looking for this comment. My dad and I went bonkers when that happened
Ever singe I built a ball printing machine for Callaway I have been so obsessed with Golf and stuff like this only makes it that much cooler. I am dying to see something like this live one day
Camilo with the backwards cap is a slick move. Pure cool back then
What's even more impressive is to have witnesses, not to mention having it on "film"!!
Even though I know what's coming, I still get excited 😁
Calm down, my son.
How the h... did Bubba manage to ger that spin with a 4-wood ? 🙃
Cheating
He hits the ball a mile in the air. Lands soft. Probably wasn't more than 3000 rpm on that shot
Soft greens high launch
Zach Johnson’s caddie grooving
Love the caddy at 3:01
xD
I'd love2 here the whistle of an eagle over loud speakers, in any second shot in golf; it would have 2b louder than the crowds. Crazy game. Love it.
Awesome 😀😀😀😀
This videos syncs up almost perfectly with Corrosion of Conformity's song Albatross
I get angry when they call it a double eagle rather than an Albatross. 🤬🤣
Then you are an irrationally angry little man
@@n0body550 lol says you with the angry irrational comment hahaha
"It's a really big bird" 🤣🤣🤣
Louis at the Masters? That was epic.
One of the best shots of all time
amazing double eagles
@Matt Scharff has made a hole-in-one on a par 4. You can call that an Albatross.
Gee, you are good with math
No you can’t. It’s a hole in one -2 unless on a par 4 but even that’s not the same. You’re off the Tee.
Albatross is a hole out for -3. Even less likely
For those wondering a -4 under par is a CONDOR. It’s so rare that there are seldom holes in the world that it can happen on (namely a Par 6 or hole in one on a 5) It’s mostly known from other forms of golf like disc golf.
Ill never call it a double eagle
I've chipped in from off the green a coupla times, that's the best I could ever manage.
My son made an Albatross 2 days ago with me there. 220 yds out with a 3 wood.
Some nice triple birdies.
Would have been nice to see Louis Oosthuizen’s Albatross on this video.
The albatross is awesome but the high fives are the real show
Camelo Villegas shot was impressive
Seen one, seen em all
These are some nice triple birdies.
4:08, the look of a genuine happy man.
I had a birdie once from about 80 yards out and I celebrated harder than these guys did.
I got an eagle in a junior medal with the club pro once. Very thankful for that particular witness 😂
2:27 There is absolutely NO way he doesn't regret that
Idk the momentum and adrenaline , i woulda yeetEd it too
Nice work on calling them albatrosses in the title. Very nice.
over in LIV golf they call that brooks shot "Shanksville"
they make it look easy
More of a "Double Eagle, Albatross, whatever you wanna call it" compilation 😂😂
Louis Oosthasen had a beautiful albatross ar the Masters a few years ago. Where was that one?
At least 3 guys (Koepka, Ancer and Cabrera-Bello) were wearing Fucsia Shirts!!!! I think I will get me one.
Glaring omission of Oosthuizen at the Masters.
I was just thinking the same. I was there that day and was sitting in the stands on 16 nowhere near the 2nd hole and it’s still the loudest roar I ever heard at the Masters. Louder than when Bubba won on the playoff hole the same day.
When and why did the term "Double Eagle" become a thing? It's an Albatross
When I was a kid we always called them double eagles and I remember hearing "Albatross" and thinking that was the strangest name ever so I just stuck with double eagle haha
Also, double-eagle makes no sense mathematically. If eagle is two under par, then a "double" eagle should be four under par.
Double Eagle and Albatross are one and the same.
"Double Eagle" refers to a gold coin. That's where the name comes from.
@@drakedbz no, it's nothing to do with coins.
I would have to say the Louis Oosthuizen albatross on #2 in the final round of the 2012 Masters would most definitely be one of "the best" ever on the PGA Tour. Disappointed it was not included.
Can confirm I am currently on this video as I got an albatross in the comp today at my local course - I’ve gotten home and am trying to explain to my wife what an albatross is so need the video as proof.
Gene Sarazen The Masters AUG 18 1935. Round four, hole 15, wins the tournament. Game over! Best Albatross of all time. Period!
Please add Louis Oosthuizen's Albatross from the Masters
No idea how that isn't included
Yea, no idea, it's the first one that comes to mind when I hear albatross.
I just realized 2 things.....#1 an Albatross and Double Eagle are not the same (that really needs no explanation simply because of the math). #2 I now know that if I want to make an Albatross that my best chance is if I am wearing either a Pink or Blue shirt. 85% in this video were made wearing one of them, lol.
Double Eagle, albatross they are one and the same.
So rare that we have an entire 8 minute video full of them!
I miss 2018 broosky
Anybody else get a Callaway advert for this?
4:56 AMAZING
Gene Sarazen had the best (double) Albatross of all-time in the 1935 Masters, on the 15th hole of the 4th round to tie the leader. (He went on to win in a 36-hole playoff by 5 strokes)
There's something wrong when a player can hit a middle iron to a green on a Par 5. The whole point of a Par 5 is that it should take 3 strokes to get onto the green, be it distance or hole shape.
Nice shots boys and gir... wait no just boys 🤣
Didnt Show Luis at augusta tho??
Any albatross is a best albatross of all time.
Literally as I'm watching this video, I get an ESPN notification that Charley Hoffman "sinks a rare albatross at Wyndham Chamionship" 😂😂 Oh the timing!
Gonna be another albatross on the golf course when John Tavares hits the links on Wednesday.
Had my one and only Albatross at Deer Ridge Golf Course in Bellville, Ohio on hole #4 - 485 yard par 5. Driver - Driver (Off the deck with big fade) in Tuesday night golf league. That one got me a skin!
***At the time I was a 5 handicap. Unfortunately, I had to give up the game of golf due to my back issues. Now all of my focus is on Pool & Billiards.
Still an awesome story
Most these guys EVEN THE COMMENTATOR ON LIV NOW💪🏻🤣LIV IS THE FUTURE
The second shot albatross is impressive, but the grandaddy of shots is the hole in one on a par 4 albatross... ridiculously rare.
Should have called this one "The Price Is Right" Hole in 2.
Camillas was by far the slickest
can you make a vid of the worst albatrosses ?
thank you . ( 2022 / June / 03 )
This would have been great with live commentary.
Bubba's The Man.......but I sure miss Johnny Miller's commentary....=))
Actually the rarest shot in pro golf was Tommy Armour's 23rd shot on the 17th hole at the Shawnee Open in 1927. It would be fun to find out what the highest single hole score is in all of golf.
Woah!
Never seen someone make the fabled dodo bird
Please, stop saying double eagle !!! Double eagle means 2x(-2) = -4… so it makes no sens to call it that way !!! Why not triple birdie so 😂😂😂
Double hole in one. 😂😂
No it makes sense. Because birdie is -1, eagle is -2, double eagle is -3 so it’s just like eagle is 1 less than birdie so double eagle is 2 less than birdie
@@owennielsen9792 2 eagles is -4 mathematically. The name doesn’t make sense, -1 is birdie -2 eagle -3 albatross not double eagle.
@@lachlanharris6172 Eagle was a US $10 gold coin. Double Eagle was the $20 gold coin. So Birdie, Eagle, Double Eagle is simply saying "Good, Great, Amazing."
@@johngood542 crazy how golf and American coins are the same thing huh. Golf is universal and it’s an albatross, Americans can feel free to call it a double eagle but now it makes sense, it’s always Americans who say double eagle.
Anyone else realize this was released on 2/2/22? The whole #albatrossday went over everyone heads lol
It's 3 AM and i came here from Wii Sports Golf videos
no louie at agusta??
Bubba with the double eagle and near perfect caddy hi five what an absolute legend
I've had two of em.. With proof.
how do they mark a double eagle on the card?
