Re: Your first Eagle...
Don't remember my first real one (eagled a par 5 with a temp green, so it didn't play the full yardage for my first one).
Last weekend I drove it pin high with a 3 wood on a 315 yd par 4, then chipped it in. One before that was solid and one of the best holes I've played in a while--long 540 yd par 5 dogleg right. Perfect drive, still couldn't see the pin, shaped a beautiful 5-iron around the dogleg to 5 feet, drained it.
Finished that round birdie-eagle-birdie-par 3-3-3-3, definitely the best closing 5 holes of my life. (I'm a 4 hdcp.)
