    Not many of us can say we've ever made the flagstick rattle with a perfectly struck shot and even fewer have gone pin-seeking while the cameras were rolling.

    But recently, one Team Titleist member checked both of these items off the list with a single shot... Introducing Christopher Hill!

    Here's the back story: We spend a lot of time working with players and Team Titleist members to conduct player testing and validate the performance of our golf balls. Most of the time, we have our cameras in tow to capture the on-course action and feedback from the players.

    Lucky for us, this was one of those days.

    As we set up the shot, we asked Christopher to knock it close to the hole. He stood about 30-yards from the pin, wedge in hand, and took dead aim.

    Next, he proceeded to slam-dunk his Titleist golf ball straight in the hole. Best part is, there was no damage to the cup itself! Swish!

    This shot was certainly one of the highlights of the year. Congrats, Christopher!

    Awesome shot, and what a thrill to have it recorded forever on video.

    All I have from my most memorable shots are great memories, and like fishing stories about the one that got away, I am sure they are slightly exaggerated just a weee bit each time I recall that great shot :)

    Hang on to this as proof to those that don't believe you when you get older !

    Great shot!! It's such a great feeling when you hear the sound of the flag stick and cup. Although I've never slam dunked a shot I've had several 1 hop slam dunks. Let me tell you that those feel great aswell. It's shocking how fast it goes in which is then followed by some screaming and shouting lol.

    Cheers Shawn

    Great shot!  I did that once with a 9 iron from 130.  Had no idea the ball went right into the hole and we looked behind the green, thinking I'd flown it.  One of my group said did you check the hole?  Sure enough, there was my Titleist!

    Those are fun!  Great clip right there!

    I hit one of those a couple of weeks ago @ Meadowbrook GC (well almost)... 95 yds in and out sat on the torn out lip. :)

    Have had 6 aces, never slam dunked.
