I actually managed to hole the classic "Seve overhead putter flick" on the practice putting green after I had had a few drinks. I couldn't believe it! Flicked it over my head, then one bounce and in! I went mad! What a great feeling. Has anyone else done this before?
 
Used to practice it quite alot (through the bordom of normal practice I guess).

My favourite was the 2 ball bunker shot. This put so much backspin on one of the balls that it would screw back into the bunker.
 
Very very hard to do with a Spider!

Hope you celebrated with another drink!
 
I done it once before on a round as I was passing a ball back to a playing partner, flicked it over my head he wasn't looking, bounced once, hit him on the shin, he fell to the floor like he'd been shot, the ball went in the hole! :)
