Like the title says, which would you rather have, an ace on a short hole (150ish) or a longer hole fairway ace (say, 200+ feet? however you want to define it)?
I got to thinking about this today while playing at a short course in the area (Admiral Farragut http://www.dgcoursereview.com/course.php?id=474&mode=ci). On the first hole, tossed my PA4 down and hit the top of the basket, literally 3 inches from an ace. During the same round, I hit the basket on hole 9 after a bad roller left me a good 200-250 feet out.
As cool as it was to nearly get my first ace, I felt a lot more accomplished after the second shot. Thoughts?
