Tell me about great swing thoughts and best shots, I came across a good takeaway thought today at the range. Just keep the left hand connected as long as possible to the club with no break or wrist hinge. With a takeaway around 1 o'clock, 12 being straight back. Was putting them out there.

My best 3 shots

1. Hole in one, 145 yd par 3, 10 yards down hill...playing a precept laddie and hitting a ping eye 2 PW, I landed it 3 inches past the hole and about 2 inches left. It litterally hit then jumped about a foot in the air and fell back into the hole. I would expect that from a pro-v but i was lucky to spin back that rock of a ball.

2. Par 5, bad drive into the right rough. Uphill/side hill lie, blind shot. 200 yds out, trees directly in front of me. with a base ball swing I hit a pull slice (right handed) around the trees and out of sight, spinning my 5 iron on the follow through because I thought I may have hit the green. I ran up the hill, jumped in the cart and saw I had a 5 inch tap in for eagle.

3. 230 out long par 5, sidehill ball above my feet, barely visable. the last 30 yards all over water, trees in front of me. Holding an Adams 2iron hybrid. In the backswing my inner voice said Fu(& it. I figured a bad shot gets me a triple. A bullet comes out, kisses the thinnest part of the tree limb, turns a hook into a straight shot. Lands softly 6 ft above the hole. 3 putt for par. WTF. LUCKY and bad.

Best shot I've ever seen...a 65 year old man who probably weighed 95 lbs hitting a driver on a 165 yd par 3 for his first hole in one ever.

hit em like you hate em
