My home course's baby hole is a little 198 footer with an OB road left. I usually will tee off from it with a DX Aviar (sometimes against my better judgment when the wind is not favorable for this) and throw a LHBH hyzer. If I go OB, or I hyzer it too much, its not against me to get another Aviar out (or maybe even a D Drone if its really windy) and try again.
For whatever reason as I let that shot go, I want that attempt to be parked, but I don't ever want it to stick in the basket. The very fact that I knew it wasn't on my first attempt would mean that I could never really enjoy it, or legitimately add it to my ace count.
To me, a "tin cup" ace is like kissing your sister. If anyone else feels differently about that, more power to them. I'm not going to get in a pissing content over what's a legitimate ace and what isn't. My sense of self worth, physical health, financial well being, or eternal salvation isn't exactly riding on it.
