I took a short cut with my driver still in my hand to look for the ball. It had jumped off the tree into the rough, so I was able to continue to play from there. The tee shot was only 80 yards. Since my bag was about 50 yards away I decided to use my driver once more and hit a rabbit killer that advanced about 150 y . About 150 yards left. I then had a very good 3.shot to the green - with only 15 feet left to the hole and I managed to make it. It was the first time I had ever made par using the driver on the 2 first shots.....

Today Jason Day did exactly what I have described here in the Hyundai Tournament of Champions on hole 13.
There is a difficult, IMO, quote out there by Clint " Dirty Harry" Eastwood , "a mans got to know his limitations". I think it works in the short-term, but not in the long-term.
Tommy Armour would agree, but then again he probably had money riding on the bet.
