Most memorable shots on tour – GolfWRXers discuss

Published

on

In our forums, one user has shared and asked others to chime in with their favorite shots in the history of the PGA Tour. As one can imagine, the answers are as varied and unpredictable as the results produced during a chaotic Sunday finish.

@JoeSchmoe kicked things off by asking:

“1. Tom Watson’s chip-in from the rough at 17.  US Open at Pebble in 1982.  He was my hero already, that shot made him a superhero.

“2. Corey Pavin’s 2nd shot on hole 18, at Shinnecock also a US Open.  200+ yds out, needing to hold off Greg Norman.  You could see it on his face, that shot had won the tournament.

“3. Bubba Watson’s shot from the trees at hole 10 in the playoff at the Masters in 2012.  I don’t think even he could believe he did that.”

How about yours?

Our members in the forum have been offering up their own favorite memories. Here are a few posts from the thread, but make sure to check out the entire discussion and have your say at the link below.

  • cdnglf: “Be the right club….today!”
  • luke1333: “I must be from a younger generation than some of the others but the two that I won’t forget is Tiger’s 6 iron at the 2000 RBC Heritage out of the bunker and over the water on 18 to seal a win and then Rory’s 3 wood at the 2016 Irish open, similar shot, par 5 18th over water to win as well. Rory from the Masters last year too with the huge hooking shot on 15 is up there as well although not quite as impressive as the first two to me!”
  • Shilgy: “A couple of my most memorable have not been mentioned….and both involve Tiger. Although the fact that I cannot positively identify the year on one of them probably deletes it from memorability.#1 Young Tiger ay the, what is now, AT&T proam…. I think it was 1998 the first year he played it. On a par 5 he had 270 for his second and I remember Feherty in amazement saying “he has an iron out, can’t believe he’s laying up.” Tiger rips a high cut 2 iron that lands almost pin high and stops like a wedge about 20ft from the pin. Feherty, for once, sis momentarily speechless. He then says something along the lines of he’s going to have to reser his thoughts on what’s possible.#2 May have been in one of the videos above but his shot from the fairway bunker…over trees, from a lie where he could barely get his footing. IIRC an iron from a bunker, terrible stance, high cut over trees. I think it was on 9 or 18.They were not the most important shots ever hit but they are two of my most memorable from a pure amazing golf shot standpoint.”

  • macedan: “Started with a hand-me-down Golden Bear set from my brother when I was in high school, never really played more than once a year or got into the game until about summer of 2017. First purchased a set of Cleveland CG4’s (I actually really miss this set sometimes, soft & not terribly large for a GI iron), moved into Nike Vapor Fly’s by the end of the year. Those lasted until spring of 18 when I decided I wanted new, so I traded them in for TM Rbladez. Honestly, although I liked the Rbladez, poor decision on my part, I think this was really about the only time so far that after a week or two I was kicking myself for not staying with what I had. Rbladez stayed with me until late last summer when I switched to P790’s and (knock on wood) I am hoping this will be my longest lasting set.”
  • JimmyC59: “MacGregor Jack Nicklaus Triple Crown. Palmer The Standard. Still play these.”
  • jgrzask: “Tommy Armour 845u
    Mizuno MP-32
    Mizuno MP-33 (2 sets)
    Bridgestone J33cb – still own
    Srixon i-302 (2 sets) – still own
