The Club is the Official Worldwide Registry for double eagles scored during tournament or casual play by men and women, professional and amateur. The Club was founded on March 1, 1997 with 57 original members. Gene Sarazen was the first Club President.
It has been said that scoring a double eagle is simply a matter of luck. Nothing could be further from the truth. Ask anyone who has scored one, especially during tournament play, and they will tell you that luck had nothing to do with it... except perhaps Andrew Magee!
They will, however, mention the many hours spent at the driving range thinking... grinding... practicing; the careful watching eye of their coach and teacher; a commitment with passion for the sport and a great respectful gratitude for all of those who have gone on before. They will also tell you that it has been a dream of theirs and a goal to accomplish before their career is finished.
The scoring of a double eagle, is it luck? No! The scoring of a double eagle, during tournament or casual play, is excellence achieved!
The Club Motto
The Club Motto, “Excellence Achieved”, is a most purposeful one. The accomplishment of scoring a double eagle, during tournament or casual play, is a fitting example of achieving excellence.
Excellence is never achieved “over night” or suddenly. Neither is the accomplishment of worthy purposeful goals.
Just as much as The Double Eagle Club is about all things golf, it is also about the achievement of excellence through setting and achieving goals.
The setting of goals and realizing them is an excellent way to accomplish ones desires and dreams. In reality… it is the only way! Without the setting of realistic and achievable goals one will never attain their dreams!
