I play sometimes. I'm from the North Central region as well, but it's actually Iowa that we're in, not Minnesota. My father-in-law has also been playing for a long time, and he plays in a league every Monday night in our area. I haven't gotten a hole-in-one myself, though I've gotten close a few times. I took a friend for his first time once, and he got an ace on the third hole. Made me a little jealous. Ok, a lot jealous.
