GolfSpy MPR 10,164 Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Thought this might be fun. A couple opening candidates: Hitting a shot that works out exactly like you planned. Playing a round with your dad/son/etc. Breaking a milestone number. There are lots of others. What would you add? 5 Quote Epic Flash Sub Zero, 9°, Aldila Rogue White 130 MSI 70 X Mavrik Sub Zero 15°, Aldila Rogue White 130 MSI 70 S F6 5-6W, 18.5°, Fujikura Motore 6.3 XTD Proto dHy 21°, Aldila Green NV Hybrid 105 S 699 Pro, Modus3 105, 5–PW Forged Black 50°, 54°, and 58° Stroke Lab EXO Seven Mini, 34" Z-Star XV Full WITB with pictures Link to post Share on other sites

Mr. 82 3,858 Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Seeing the ball go in the hole from 160 yards out in the fairway. I've never had a hole in one, but the pure joy I got holing out for eagle is the best feeling I've ever had playing golf. And it never gets old either, no matter how many times you do it. 4 Quote G400 Driver XR 4 Fairway 16.5° Fli-Hi Utility Iron - 21° G Series 5-9 irons SM7 46°, 50°, 54° & 58° Ghost Spider S putter Nexus Laser Rangefinder Garmin Approach S20 GPS Link to post Share on other sites

perseveringgolfer 4,794 Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 my best feeling is the iron shot that is struck so purely off the sweet spot then flies beautifully to the green, you hardly even feel the shot off the face it's so well struck, sounds beautiful too.

I've played many a around by myself, and many rounds with others. One of the reasons I really look forward to my Tuesday evening golf league is the guys I play in that league with. I can be having a horrible week or day, and then Tuesday night comes along, and I know it's time for golf with the guys. I sometimes find myself in a bad mood even when I get there, but by the time the night is up, I'm feeling good. I've also discovered these FSGA one day events, where you sign up and play a course with people you don't know, and like I will be doing on this coming Monday, I'll be paired with 3 people who I don't even know. But the last few times I've done this it's been great to meet new people, and usually in these groups I am paired with golfers at my skill level or better. But skill level aside, the social aspect of the game should not be overlooked. Unless I haven't seen it, no one here is going to be on TV on Sundays anytime soon, so our golf is all about the experience, and who you play with, and what you take away from your time spent with others. The appreciation of their good shots, and vice versa. I tried playing golf by myself for over a year, and never had a game. Honestly, it got somewhat depressing towards the end of that time, and I got to the point where I didn't feel like playing anymore. Golf by yourself can be ok for awhile, but I think if you are just playing alone and never with others, you are missing out on a lot of what this great game has to offer, in interacting with others. 4 Quote G400 Driver XR 4 Fairway 16.5° Fli-Hi Utility Iron - 21° G Series 5-9 irons SM7 46°, 50°, 54° & 58° Ghost Spider S putter Nexus Laser Rangefinder Garmin Approach S20 GPS Link to post Share on other sites
