Hey guys and gals! My name is Bryce. I'm a collegiate golfer and excited for the upcoming season! I will be playing in school tournaments and amateur tournaments hopefully every weekend throughout the entire 2009 season. This thread will be updated every time i play, and hopefully when i do well it will get pretty exciting. I have enjoyed my boy ben's minitour thread where he does much of the same thing. So if you're interested subscribe!

On Friday i will play in a nice little 1 day amateur. The Shneiter Bluffs Am. Fairly easy course and the weather is suppose to be pretty nice. A perfect little tournament to open the 09 season. Wish me Luck! Ill check back in after Friday! Thanks guys!

Good Luck! I am sure I speak for the rest of the members that will follow this thread and say that I enjoy following your progress through your 2009 year. Just some more information, what year are you? Where do you normally fit on your current collegiate team?

Well it says he's from Salt Lake so I'm guessing somewhere there. I know there isn't a Bryce on the U of Utah's roster.

Salt Lake CC doesn't have golf I believe.

And the only other school in Salt Lake I believe is Westminster which I believe fields a golf team at the NAIA level so that'll be my guess.



Good luck though bro! Keep us posted. I know I'm in the same boat as you basically. I took this year off from playing college after having shoulder surgery last year. I'm just going to a local community college while playing in amateur events before I move on next year to play at a 4 year institution!

Good guess. i play for Westminster. last year for my freshman year i went to the U but didnt get the chance to even try out. sooo for other reasons than golf i transfered to Westminster. its a small school and the golf program is just starting but free competitive golf is still very nice I originally started as the fourth man for the team. had a good showing in my first tournament. Tied for 25th individually and played three man for the rest of the season. My lowest shooting was tied for 14th place out of a field around 100. not bad. In the spring i will probably play 1 or 2. because our number 1 man has just graduated. .. We have just hired a new head golf coach who has been recruiting hard. so hopefully our program based around the few sticks we have will grow in the next few years. Where are you planning on playing?

I'm a sophomore marketing major. I played 4-3 man in the fall and will move up one or two spot this spring. This is my first year at Westminster College. last year i attended the University of Utah. In the fall i had two decent finishes t25 and t14. (72,72,68) The fall season was pretty frustrating just with travel and miserable playing conditions. hopefully... this spring will much more enjoyable. thanks for being interested any questions ask!

Good evening guys. Hope you all are having a great weekend. On Friday i played in the first amateur,the Shneiter Bluffs AM and didn't play great but didn't play awful. here are my number. I hit the ball really well i just didn't have anything going from 100 yards in. i shot 75.

Par - 4 4 4 4 3 5 4 4 5 36 4 3 4 5 4 5 3 4 4 36 72

Bryce 4 4 4 3 3 5 4 4 5 35 5 3 4 6 4 4 5 5 4 40 75

puts -2 2 1 1 2 3 2 2 2 17 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 1 17 34

GIR 13 (2 under GIR)

UP/DN 2 / 4

Fairways 6

So its obvious i had way to many puts. I had never played the course and that hurt me a little on number 16. i over clubbed long over a par 3 and went Out of bounds. i ended up doubling. The OB was right behind the green, unbeknown to me. For my first tourney i don't feel to bad about it. I was most pleased with with my focus on the day. Ill go low next time.

Next week i travel out of town to play in the UGA Winter Champs. Its a stable ford 2 dayer and should be fun. should be nice and warm too. Thanks guys and stay tuned!

How did you place with that 75? Just curious. I would imagine anything around par (for college golf) would be pretty good, particularly in a smaller school tourney.
That is not at all meant to be a dig. I just gather that it's smaller based on the info I read in the thread. I wish I had the talent you obviously have, in my school days.

Good Luck moving forward. We'll be rooting for ya!

Yuk, I hate screwing up late in the round. That just stings. But, looks like a decent showing like you said. Play well at the UGA deal!

This was just an amateur tournament, I believe a 17 year old named Zach Blair won with a 65

. kids legit. Went out today played nine and shot a 34 on a rating 37.5. felt good. i was so relaxed 7 pars, 2 birdies. my putting was much improved. Zach will be at the winter champs this next weekend. I think ive got him this time. haha thanks for the commment

      Winter Depression Thread

      By StuM ·

      Not sure this is the best thread but, if the rain holds off, today is my 1st round of the year.  Getting ready I can not find my Shot Scope.  I guess I put it away too well for the winter and thus that is may "Winter Depression".  I'm sure I put it somewhere that made sense at the time.
