A historic hole-in-one: Brockton native aces a hole at West Bridgewater Country Club
In golf, there's shots that just keep players coming back. At West Bridgewater Country Club on Wednesday, Brockton's Jared Bartelamia hit his first hole-in-one on the par-3, 150-yard 17th hole. He recorded the ace while playing in his Wednesday golf league. According to Jeff Wood, who runs the league, he became just the second person to hit a hole-in-one in its 35-year history. Advertisement Bartelamia said he picked up the sport just five years ago. "I never thought in a million years I'd even see one, let alone hit one myself," Bartelamia said. Jared Bartelamia goes to grab his ball after recording a hole-in-one on the par 3 17th hole at West Bridgewater Country Club during his league play on Wednesday, May 21. Bartelamia said his club of choice for the hole was a 9 iron. His shot landed just in front of the hole and rolled left to right before disappearing into the cup. Bartelamia threw his hands and club in the air before sprinting onto the green. He had three witnesses playing with him, good friends JJ Deligolia, Ryan Hennessey and Mitch Barney. Watching the flight of the ball, the group of four all thought it had a chance to find the hole.

Scoring aces runs in the family. According to Bartelamia, his uncle, Frank Daxberger hit two hole-in-ones exactly a year a part from each other at D.W Field Golf Course in Brockton. Luckily for Bartelamia, it was cloudy and rainy by the time he got back to the clubhouse, so there weren't too many people he had to buy a round of drinks for after nailing the shot. "My tab wasn't too crazy," Bartelamia joked. This article originally appeared on The Enterprise: Brockton's Jared Baterlamia sinks hole-in-one at West Bridgewater CC
