TIME tick-tocked triumphantly for Easingwold Golf Club player Richard Bramall.

The 67-year-old, who confessed to having “a shocker” of a round, improved his mood significantly when he scored a hole in one.

His ace was on the 144-yard par-three fifth at Easingwold, earning the 20-handicapper membership of the exclusive Boss Watches H1 Club and a specially-commissioned, commemorative limited edition Boss watch.

He said: “I was having a shocking round – six, six, seven and seven – and I was all for walking in when I took out my trusty seven-iron. Lo and behold, in it went.”

The luxury German brand has pledged to reward club golfers with an exclusive watch for every hole-in-one recorded during a club competition between April 15 and October 31 this year.

The scheme is open to any golfer whose club uses HowDidiDo – a free-to-use, web-based social network for golfers. Anybody playing in official club competitions will be eligible.
