  1. I have 2 different occasions. I am a member at Reynolds Lake Oconee and had my 1st hole in one at the Creek Club #13 in 2019. I used a 5 wood at 194 yards. Then 15 days later I scored my lowest round of my golfing career. I shot 71 on the Preserve course.
    Both happened using a Pro V1. Pretty incredible for a 59 year old.
  2. Double eagle a month ago.

    Lining up and watching my 13 year old daughter sink a 25 ft putt! I don't know who was more excited, me or her! #whyilovethisgame

    Playing in a golf tournament and watching my 6 iron, red number 3 Titleist ball fly 186 yards directly in to the cup, on the closest shot to the hole. Writing my name on the hole marker and putting it in the cup WHOA!!! At the awards ceremony a comment was made that someone placed the closest to the hole pin marker in the cup. To which I replied, where else would you have me placed it for a "hole in one?" The room erupted in laughter and couldn't stop smiling.
  5. 15 yards to go after my drive - on a short Par 4.

    Over a sand trap and 8 feet to work with on the green to the hole.

    94 degrees and no wind...

    Flopped my 58 degree high and my Pro V1x landed softly and ended up just rolling past the hole by a foot!

    Should have gone it!

    The feel was great:

    During the strike
    Watching the spinning shot
    ...the soft landing
    and of course
    The bird!
  6. The Club at Ibis Legend golf course: on hole # 17, a 495 yard par 5, I holed out my 2nd shot from 230 yards for a double eagle.

  7. Not as big as some of the responses here, but finally breaking the 85 Barrier. I shot a 84, and with the extra distance I'm getting, wont be long till I break 80!!

    My first (only) Ace! I hit a ProV1x 161yds into the wind and straight to the bottom of the cup.

  9. Hole-In-One on May 6th, 2006 (my first and only). I was playing in the Cranberry Valley Four-Ball Championship with a friend and aced the 13th hole. The hole happened to be sponsored by the Harwich Chamber of Commerce and I won $10,000! Boom.
  10. I also have a few including my first rounds in the 70's, but the big one to me is playing 2 days, 36 holes in a Golfweek Am Tour Championship and finishing with the same ball on 18 on day 2 as I started with on day one. B Flight Tour Championship trophy sitting on the shelf with the ball retired on the shelf as well.
  11. Having a sub-average round, not much working in my game, but nailing a drive on hole 8 (305 yds) par 4 to withing 10 feet and sinking the putt for eagle. First eagle on a par 4 ever! Made the rest of the round fade away.

    I have a few to choose from, but one stands out among others: Shooting 78 from the back tees on the Old Course at St. Andrews couple of years ago. A week-long trip to Scotland had a built-in off day toward the end of the trip...we were staying in St. Andrews right across from the Old Course that we had played two days earlier. A couple of my pals were OK taking the day off, but I wanted another crack at the course, so I woke up early and got my name on the wait list for a tee time. The very nice woman staffing the reservations desk said to stick around as she thought something would open up. About 20 minutes later she said there was a three-some of local guys playing in about an hour...she was sure they wouldn't mind a fourth. So I had bite to eat, rolled some putts and sure enough, about 15 minutes before their tee time they walked onto the first tee, introduced themselves (two were former members of the St. Andrews University golf team) to me and said they were playing the back tees. My earlier round was from the regular tees...and they asked if I'd mind playing from the back. I said "no" and the starter said I'd have to have a single digit handicap to play the back tees. I showed them my USGA card (6 index at the time) and in a slight drizzle, we were off. Playing from the back tees actually kept me out of some of the bunkers and I was trying to keep up with these guys who were at least 30 years younger. Having played the course a couple of days earlier helped...the drizzle never turned into a rain, I didn't lose a ball during the round and finished birdie-par-birdie for a 78. My caddie, a very nice older gentleman, put his arm around me as we walked off 18 and said, "You know what you just did there? You broke 80 from the back tees on The Old Course. You'll remember this round for a long time." And so I have.
  13. In 2008, I attended a Club Corp National Tournament at the Homestead in Virginia. After being typed for the appropriate Titleist ball, on the 18th hole I scored a hole in one and won a brand new Acura ZDX. The Titleist congratulated me as I showed them the ball and said they would be sending me recognition of the event and I agreed they could use my name but I never heard from them...but I have the memories. I was suppose to be in a special group at the Homestead also. Titleist, Acura, and the Honestead will always be a fond memory!!!

    I don't remember the year, but our head pro gave me a sleeve of balls in a white unmarked package and asked
    me to give them a try. I was playing with Professional 80's at the time and told the pro this ball was a keeper.
    A month or so later the ball came out for sale as Pro VI's. Been playing them ever since
  15. First time playing in a Match-Play Tourney at the new course we joined in Florida after retiring. Made birdie on the first hole , par from the sand on the second, par on the third hole(toughest hole on the course) lead 3 up after 3 and went on to win that match 4 and 3. Promptly headed to the beach and caught 2 nice Pompano! Great Day!

    What a nice birthday (70) surprise! An early morning round with a few friends and we all hit good looking shots to an elevated 3 par with the rising sun behind. When we got up to the green, only 3 balls were apparent. That is, until my buddy looked in the hole and said to me. "Looks like a Pro V1x down there". And the drinks were on me,(although I still don't get the reasoning behind that one!).
  17. You have all hit that "shot" - the one time everything lines up perfectly and your setup/aim was correct - I have only played a few years now, and I normally played medium level or cheap balls - no point in sending "good" balls into the woods right? I had run out of those, so I started a round with some ProV1s that I had been gifted with for my birthday. Played a few holes, nothing spectacular, but a par bogey par start to the day was satisfying. And then I made the shot. I hit it, and all at once understood what people say about feel, understood what it felt like to strike a ball so pure, as if the club caught the ball and threw it toward the green. I have hit good shots before, but this was different. I pictured the shot beforehand, and sent that ProV1 on the same path, a 120 yard draw over a pond with a one hop and stop landing four feet from the flagstick. Shots like that are why we play golf - and there is no way my normal $20/dozen golf balls would have stayed on that green. I finished my round, nothing really noteworthy or exciting, but that one shot..... so off to the range to practice some more, but the confidence that I can hit a perfect shot came from using the best ball on the market.
  18. 3rd Hole @ The Heritage in ATL...Downhill Par 3 Playing 102 Yards, Pin on the Lower Level. 60 Degree Vokey Wedge Hit into the Bank and Got to Watch It Track into the Hole-Awesome Feeling!

    Mine is a little different. I got married on September 12, 1992 with a Titleist ball in the pocket of my blue blazer and used that same ball on the 1st and 18th holes of my round of golf at St. Andrews on our honeymoon a few days later. That ball rests comfortably on my dresser far far away from any and all hazards.
