This 5-year-old from Canada's Calgary has been nailing long-range golfing shots for years, leaving his dad shocked at his amazing ability.

Shane Sky has been playing golf since he was just a year old and his dad Mike Sky has been recording his son's shots, from hole in ones to long-range putts.

Mike told Newsflare: "I have spent a lot of time with him and have taught him everything he knows. I am surprised he already has a hole in one but we have been talking about getting one for about a year now."

Shane's epic hole in one went viral earning him an interview with his local TV station.

"I think he is the youngest Canadian to get one to date. He will break some records along the way. Tiger Woods did not get his first hole in one until 8-years-old and Phil Mickelson got his at 6-years-old. So he is right on track to be a good little golfer.

"His favourite golfers are Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy close behind is Rickie fowler. All I know is that Shane has a maturity far past his age and his respect for the game and golf etiquette is far past his years also."
