  1. Ive been playing golf since 2006 in the 7th grade. I fell in love with the sport playing pga tiger woods games and always wanted to play but No-one in my family knew the game except my uncle who taught me how to hit balls in the backyard one summer. I remember him emptying out a sleeve of pro v1s and mentioned something about how crazy jt I was learning to hit this specific type of ball into a tarp just to learn. He also made me watch prime tiger religiously on Sundays whenever i was over. Fast forward to high school i tried out for the golf team yet didn't make it the first year but played for 3 years to decent success in our division every year. Over the years I've had many close hole in 1 attempts but today was the first. All this start of the year i started with the worst yips I've had since hs golf. I figured it out last week at my league when i realized i just needed to relax and swing less tense and a hole after this epiphany i hit a knock down 8i from 149 to get my first ever hole out eagle. Today inkster valley hole 4- 163 yards down hill, was playing 149 it was essentially the same exact shot and I'm not sure I’ve used that 8i since. Perfect low strike took 1 big hop, bit, took another hop then couldn't see cause of the glare but heard the distinct hollow sound of the pin and didn't see the ball on the green or off the back! I told people on my group i heard it but none knew for sure except me. I was going to sprint and run it down but today was 97+ degrees so we drove up and there it was!!! Crazy feeling and then i realized the real work had to begin cause i had 12 more hole i had to play to keep the round something i could be proud off haha. Lots of backups and my cart died on hole 8 so no the most ideal round but who cares we got an ACE! I always make sure im rocking a prov1 on a par 3 cause it would feel weird to get one and display it with a scuffed up Calloway or godforbid top flight or random other ball. So this Titleist will be displayed proudly in my office forever. Thank you Titleist
