[QUOTE="Eyelight, post: 306019, member: 24753"] Thought maybe I should elaborate for the non-golfing photographer. Little preface. The three shots before that one were all trying to do it all in one shot with the wrong club and with the wrong attitude, leaving myself laying 3, 5 feet off the fairway and 200 yards from the pin. I had to stop and ask myself what I was trying to do. Answer is the same for photography and that was make my best shot (not score lower than the other two golfers). Then reached for the longest club that I knew I could hit with from where the "bugger" was laying and said, "Okay boys, this is how it's done." The real change between the first three shots and the fourth was attitude and then confidence gained from a few seconds of better planning. There are many other shots made on golf courses every day that could be considered better than that shot, but they cannot be compared, because all those other shots are not part of my game. [/QUOTE]
