Unbelievable! Local 85-year-old golfer makes consecutive aces on same hole

Howard Beloved had the shot of a lifetime. Actually, two of them, on the same hole, in consecutive attempts.

The 85-year-old recently made back-to-back aces from 90 yards out on the first hole at Rancho Casa Blanca in Indio.

Here's how it happened.

Howard hit his first shot. It was on line but thought it might be a little long. He and his playing partners couldn't tell if the ball was in play because of shadows on the green and a flower bed just past the green.


So, naturally, Howard pulled another ball out of his bag and hit a provisional.

This shot had the same line as the first ball but tough to tell how it would end up from that far away.

When he and his group of playing companions got up to the green, they noticed that not one, but both balls were in the cup!

True to his namesake, Beloved is beloved by all. He also happens to be a pretty good golfer!
