I wasn't sure 100% sure of making 4, although I liked my chances at the time. I am miles away from 11 tricks; why would I do anything but x this?

"Well to be perfectly honest, in my humble opinion, of course without offending anyone who thinks differently from my point of view, but also by looking into this matter in a different perspective and without being condemning of one's view's and by trying to make it objectified, and by considering each and every one's valid opinion, I honestly believe that I completely forgot what I was going to say."

IMO...
You might have bid 3N over 2H. Now, Double seems sensible.

Dbl and lead 2 rounds of trumps. You got control of all suits, so you can afford to do this trump pulling.

We should have started with 2NT over 2. Not only we'd be in a better position now to evaluate the potential of making 11 tricks, we'd also put partner in the picture in regard to doubling the opponents.

As it is, anything other than double now is a wild shot.
