put these 3 in order

Yes, completely agree. And anyone who thinks otherwise is a mug.

nice answer lads pub said hole in one lol cos whats the odds of the ball traveling all that distance hitting the pin and going in[it happens just about every top tournament] then 147 then 9 darter will have to find another pub to drink in as johnny mustang has said they must be mugs

Not that simple  when you consider how many people play each spor, the more people play a particular sport then surely the odds of it happening are greater

it depends how far the hole is in golf, ..you dont see many holes in one on holes over 350 yards ...

but a hole in one in general is fairly common

hole in one is about 3000/1 per tee shot on a par 3, or around even money per tournament, (shorter at masters)

9 darter is about 20,000/1 ( i was told)

a 147 is quoted at around 6/4 at world championship

hmmmmm.

it's a difficult question

for an amateur it's definitely the order you state.

and even at the professional level, a hole in one is in third place.

but for professionals, a 147 and 9 darter are, i think, much closer.

Put simply, there's a limit on how accurate any dart player can be. Van Gerwen's record is somewhere around the 70% mark but snooker players, like hendry and o' sullivan have played tournaments with a 96% pot success rate. Obviously pot and perfect positioning on a single colour would be a litte lower but the gap is still very signficant.

.92^37 vs .7^9 are both at about 4%.

If we compare records since 2012, there have been 47 147s in professional competitions compared to 23 televised 9 darters. It's difficult to compare after that. Snooker frames obviously take longer, but my darts stats are only from televised matches.

You would need to pore through the number of snooker frames played in those competitions since 2012 and then compare it to the number of televised legs.

maybe for golf feats you should take scoring 59 or less for a round

then it becomes more difficult than a 147 or 9 darter

So deffo 147 the hardest

I think my biggest break in snooker was 8. Doubt that I could get that if I tried today.

I almost hit a hole in one when I was 11 for example but my highest snooker break is about 14, while it takes me about an hour to finish a leg of darts

1384 legs of darts played at this year's pdc alone.

so that's 2768 chances of a 9 darter and no-one did it.

just because it happens more often does not mean it is easier to do.
the hole in one is most difficult.

I got a hole in one when I was about 10, and haven't done so since in all these many years playing golf the best since is hitting the flag.
that shows how difficult it is.

1 - 147. 36 perfect shots needed.
2 - 9 darter. 9 perfect shots needed.
3 - hole in one. One perfect/lucky shot needed.

Someone who's never played these sports would have a chance of a hole in one, so long as they can hit a ball somewhere around 150 yards. A novice darter can hit 180's, but to hit it on the first throw, then follow up with six more perfect darts is almost impossible. You'd have to be a superb snooker player to get a 147.

I rarely play golf, but I've had a hole in one. I managed to get it up the ramp, through the windmill, and straight in the hole!

how many of those 147 shots are difficult, yes they are difficult to a degree, but how difficult? some will be easy, like shelling peas.

Nah. It's a lot easier to jump out of a plane without a parachute. No practice needed..

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/900_series_(bowling)

exactly kenbo.

auditors give odds of about 25,000 to 1 for a hole in one for a novice.

let's say that a good amateur snooker player gets a feasible pack-split/table to work with and has a 25% pot and position accuracy (this is pretty high). he's 4722366482869645213696-1 to get a 147

An amatuer dart player with a 15% accuracy is about 20 million to 1 for 9 darter.

As i said before, the difference in snooker and darts is that dart accuracy flatlines at about 65%. Snooker can go much much higher with pot and "acceptable" position success rates (90% seems feasible)

n 2006 Jamie Cope became the first player to record a 155 break. He did it in a witnessed practice match. Jamie is a professional snooker player from Stoke-on-Trent Staffordshire, England.

On 23 April 2003 Cope had made a 151 break on the match table at The Reardon Snooker Club (Hanley Stoke-on-Trent) during a practise game with David Fomm-Ward. After a foul shot by his opponent Jamie was snookered behind the Brown ball. He took the Brown as the free ball and then potted Blue, 8 Red and 8 Black, 2 Red and 2 Pink, 5 Red and 5 Black. Then cleared all the colours. He was 17 years old at the time.

Teenager Sam Harvey scored a break of 151 during a practice match at his home club in Bedford in November 2010. The 17-year-old was playing tour professional Kyren Wilson when he registered the score. After a foul from his opponent early in the frame, Harvey was left with a free ball, and potted the brown to a centre pocket, gaining position on the black. He then spilt the reds open and went on to pot all 15, taking 12 more blacks, two pinks and a blue before clearing the colours.

In 1995 Tony Drago's (Malta) (b. 22 Sep 1965) made a 149 in a practice match against Nick Manning at the West Norwood Snooker Club.

Drago broke off and snookered Manning behind the brown. Manning tried to escape from the snooker but left a free ball. Drago took the brown as the free ball and then the brown again for four more points and followed that with 15 reds, 13 blacks, a pink and a blue and all the colours.

Eddie Manning (Leicester, England) also achieved a 149, in 1997 at Willie Thorne's in Leicester. His practice partner was Kam (or Kan?) Pandya. Manning. Like Drago he took brown, brown, 13 blacks, pink and blue.

Stephen Hendry made a 148 in practice vs Alfie Burden in 1993.

I couldn't do it with a parachute, I`m scared to walk down to the end of my garden.

I am; in case the faeries are aboot..
