The winner: Many years ago when I was a teenager I walked on as a single at the local muni and got paired with an old guy. We approached a green that had like 3' or 4' stakes around it maybe 30 or 40 feet in front of the greens. There was rope looped through eyelets across the top of the metal stakes. I hit my approach wedge really high but short - so short that the ball came down precisely on the rope. Amazingly the ball balanced on the rope, pulling the rope taut. There wasn't enough slack in the rope for it to go all the way to the ground so it collapsed maybe 2 feet then acted like a slingshot and propelled the ball back into air, just slightly forward. The 'thrown' ball flew forward, bounced a couple of times and rolled to about 18" from the hole. The old guy got so mad about my incredible luck that he started cursing me as he walked ahead in disgust.

A close 2nd: Playing to about a 36 last season but puring a 3h 235 yards for an ace on a hole called Devil.
