On May 22 Joe Little made a hole-in-one on hole number 13 of the Tuscany Falls East course while playing with Jim Wolfe’s golf group. This was Joe’s fourth career hole-in-one.
The 13th hole was playing approximately 125 yards from the white tees with perfect conditions for golf. With a middle-right pin placement, Joe hit a high straight shot right at the flagstick. His ball took a few bounces and dropped into the hole. Joe did not see his ball go in. However, all three of his playing partners, Tom Murch, Bruce Carlyle, and Joe Bannon, thought it went in. The usual congrats were offered.
Joe has been playing golf for over 43 years. His most previous hole-in-one came in 2012 on this same hole. His first two holes-in-one also came on the same hole (number 6 at Rawiga CC in Seville, Ohio)—one in 1998 and the other in 2000. As a point of interest, his wife, Kay, also made her two holes-in-one on the same hole (number 12 at Eagles Nest).
Joe was born in St. Louis, Mo., and raised in Cape Girardeau, Mo. He attended Southeast Missouri State University. Joe spent his 42-year career working for Bridgestone/Firestone Tire Company in several positions. Joe and Kay moved from Wadsworth, Ohio, to PebbleCreek in 2004.
Congrats on this terrific shot! Maybe Joe and Kay will start getting three holes-in-one on the same hole!
