I can't imagine that hail could take out chunks nearly that large. I would suspect a manufacturing defect.

Hail damage will commonly be on only one side of the roof due to prevailing wind at the time.

I've heard them called "tent blisters." They're the result of a manufacturing defect that causes the asphalt to blister up off the fiberglass backing. When the blister shears off, you're left with exposed asphalt as in your pictures.
The condition is considered cosmetic.

Usually caused by a bit of water in the mix during mfg.
