It's awesome that you had a vision for your shot and executed it. Congrats

Thanks.  I usually have visions for my shots but most don't turn out how I envision them.

It feels great to have had it happen but it's almost a bit embarrassing because I know so many better golfers than myself who haven't gotten one yet and are more deserving.

You deserve it because you hit a great shot.  No one at the moment deserved it more!  That's golf...

Congrats!

Sweet.

I am still in search of that elusive ace.  I've gotten inside a foot 2 or 3 times but never have gotten one to fall.

Congrats.

I hate you, j/k awesome! Never even been close.

same here - never even had a look an ace.   Congrats to the OP - save that ball - I'd make a plaque with a little shelf, get one of those brass engraved plates giving the details - can get them custom made up on eBay for cheap (date, course, yardage, club, etc)  & display it proudly.

      Day 37: did my drill swings in the garage with foam balls for about 15 minutes. Working on getting my backswing more turned and then going from there.

      Retaining Trail Knee Flex in the Backswing

      By iacas · Posted

      Thanks but honestly… I don't know any other way. I don't mind being wrong so long as I know where to go from there. I don't like being wrong — I'd love to get things right (which is different than "being right"). I recommend grabbing a furniture slider or a paper plate or something, and doing something like this: First, make a swing where you let your trail foot swing out as you turn, then twist that foot back in. From DL and FO, it'll look like this: Then, during a regular backswing, try to twist your foot in slightly (demonstrated in the left image): You'll notice a crease along the trail side of your hip, your pelvis will "fold" into that thigh (internal rotation of the hip joint), and your "bits" will be squished a little between your pelvis and your thigh. Ben Hogan said once: "At the top of the back swing the groin muscle on the inside of your rt [sic] leg near your right nut will tighten," Hogan wrote. "This subtle feeling of tightness there tells you that you have made the correct move back from the ball." I don't know about that, but you will probably feel something down around that area.

      Yep. I think it will start to feel even more athletic when we start on the downswing stuff later.  I know, it's just I want to be younger so I have more time to enjoy the changes. 🙂

      I need to drop a couple of stone. 🙂 😛    Yep. Yeah, but in the end, it feels more athletic, like you're actually using your legs, yeah? As you know… we use the best available info we have. Like others, I was fooled a little by 2D images for awhile (moving or still). Unlike others, I've learned and grown and moved on since then, while they're still looking at their images (often from lousy camera angles).
