Describe the best golf shot you and/or anyone in your group has ever executed. The emphasis here should be on degree of difficulty, successful execution of intent & getting out of trouble. Holes-in-1 & jarred 230 yard 2-irons over water are great(I assume, actually I wouldn't know ), but I'm looking for something different. Here's mine -
360 yard Par 4 to a tight fairway between deep, tall pine tree stands which started about 120 off the tee. I snap-hooked my drive into the adjacent fairway with this mini-forest of pines between my ball & the green. Maneuvered to get a line on the flag, which I could barely see. I had no idea how far, but I pulled a 6-iron because it was the longest iron I could possibly lift over the trees. I hit it solid, cleared the trees by inches & I lost sight of it. My playing partner yells you're going to like it. It stopped 4 feet short, but I missed the putt ... routine par.
I know you all can beat that... but I have a better one by an opponent for later.
I was on about a par4 and stuffed up my drive so it only went about 200 yards.
So for the next shot i pulled out a 6 iron, hit it too far, over the green and it came to rest about 3 cm from a really big, rough, concrete wall! i was going to take an un playable lie cos' there was no way of even having a backswing..... so i faced the wall and smacked it really hard on the wall and it came back town to the green about 5 cm from the pin.
I have more, but I can't remember too much of them.
I don't get into too much trouble you see

Only 200 yards huh... poor baby. Cool shot though, gg.
Dogleg left par five about 500 yards with huge mounding on the left and OB at the bottom of the mounds. I drove my tee shot left and I was on the side of the mound with the ball above my feet at about waist level and 185 yards out. I took my 8 iron and aimed toward the green. If I hit it left I was OB. I was hoping to hit it within a pitch shot of green. Shot came off and I ended up putting it on the front edge. Two putt birdie.
1 stroke lead on the last hole of the club tournament. a par-5 and had to reach in 2. slight fade around a tree about 225yds out and put it on the back of the green. only had to 2 putt to win. soooo, i guess my 2nd shot was my most important shot i ever hit

You aren't slightly exaggerating? 315 yard drive and then an 8 iron 185 yards?
520 dogleg right par 5 to an uphill green. I tried to fade my driver into the fairway to cheat a little on the placement. Ended up slicing it to the right.
Decided to draw my 3 wood back between two trees 100 yards away back to the fairway. ****ed the shot, leaving me 160 (6-iron) to get home. I thought to myself add 2 clubs for the elevation and 1 club for the wind. That's a 3-iron and that makes me laugh. It's not exactly my scoring club! LOL
Decided to fade a lazy 5 wood up there because for me that shot has a better chance of turning out good. The shot held the green and left a 25 foot putt. Got my par and never used an iron. :)
1. On a par 4. I was 150 out behind a tree and attempted to hit a high fade. I didn't see where it landed but when I got to the green my ball was 3 feet for birdie. Par'd it.
2. On a par 4. I was 120 out. Skulled the shot and it was like an ankle missile going right at the flagstick. "CLANG!" the ball hit and stopped 1 foot for birdie which I made.
Dogleg right 420 yard par-4, entire hole is lined with pine trees, pond guarding the front of a huge green.. very good and difficult hole. We all hit our tee shots and are having trouble finding one of our guys ball. It looked like he bit off a little more than he could chew and probably ened up in the pines or the second row of pines in the right rough... after a few minutes we still havent found it... somehow I looked just in the right spot, and sure enough, he was in the second row of pines.. about 6 feet up in the air stuck on a limb. Long story short, he hacks the limb/ball(takes about a 3 foot piece of pine with him), knocks his next one on the the green to no closer than 40 feet and nails the putt for an all world par.
Chip-in for bogey from the fringe, on the slopyest green you've ever seen. It bounced and rolled about 20 feet, breaking left-to-right, right in the hole. Yay! Bogey. Boo!
9-iron shot on a par-3, over the green, then rolling back on the 2nd-slopyest green you've ever seen to within about 5 feet. Birdie. Yay!
220-yard drive on a slightly downhill par-3 to within about 3 feet. Par. Boo!
