Before we get to Chris Dickerson and his win, let’s give a quick shout-out to Ace Run Pro for capturing this beauty. Not easy.
Why wasn’t it easy? Because Dickerson’s 420-foot ace on W.R. Jackson ‘s hole 11 at the International Disc Golf Center is a right-turning blind shot from the tee. Dickerson used a big turnover to find chains on a stunning line.
As if Dickerson’s shot wasn’t good enough on its own, Matt Dollar had also pulled off the same feat just a couple cards ahead during the final round of the Hall of Fame Classic. The first ever aces on this hole were minutes apart from each other.
Both men were given a Rec Tec Grill as a prize. Better than our print praise to be sure.
