Yesterday from 70 yards out on the par 5 7th I took out my lob wedge and knocked the ball straight into the hole! No bounce, no marks on the edge of the cup, just straight up and straight down in for eagle. Yippee!

Wow. You da man. Why mess with bounce and roll when you can just flat out knock it in!

Great shot man! That is definitely something to be happy about. That always keeps ya coming back for more.

I was playing a par 4 at a course in Chickasha, OK about 4 years back. I hit my tee shot so far right it was in the other hole's fairway. I just took a 3 iron and hit it under some trees back onto my fairway about 60 or 70 yards from the hole. I then proceeded to hit a wedge from there and it went in. It did land before the hole and roll in, but I'll take it any way I can get it. That round was one of my two 79's I have shot in my career.

I also hit a tee shot onto a par 4 green agout 2 foot from the pin and eagled that hole. That was on the same course, but I was scrambling when I did this. My partners were in the fairway already, so I just bombed away. It was a great shot, but the pressure wasn't there like the other.

That's funny. I holed one from 70 yards today too. Mine made a horrid "clank" sound right as it went in the jar and there's a big yellow scuff right above "MAXFLI" on one side. Last hole - last shot - of the day.

Last Thursday, I hit a wedge from 40 yards, it took a little bounce and roll. Then dropped into the cup. I'll take those birdies any day!

But I paid for it last night. 90 yards out and one small over hanging limb. The ball landed 30 yards behind me, and behind a row of the only evergreen trees on the course. I ended up with a 9 on that par 5. Did I mention that I hate trees?
