Here is an idea I started doing many years ago. If you were lucky enough to have won multiple trophies and the wife says it's time to get rid of the shrine, or clean out the closet, donate them to a local agency for kids. The idea came to me when a friend of mine was involved with Special Olympics in our area (something close to my heart). It turns out to be one of the most rewarding things I have ever done. The thought that some youngster has one of my old trophies in his home brings a constant smile to my face whenever I think about it.
There are so many worthy organizations like the Police athletic league, Boys and girls club, YMCA, local junior tour, etc. all you have to do is take the name tag or if the base of the trophy is engraved take it off and just donate the body of the trophy. Most trophies have interchangeable parts so if you donate a loving cup with a golfer on top it can be swapped out for a runner or whatever. Just a thought that can make a difference.
I was going to one day take all the name plates and put them on a plaque, but I never got around to it, maybe I should melt them down hehe.

    • Interesting changes. The idea of relegation and promotion have always been there in a different form (getting and losing your card etc and qualifying for bigger events) but it looks like they want to define it better for top tier events. The Tour has always had A and B level events (and even lower). It will be interesting what they choose as the Challenger Series events and whether some tournaments go to the Challenger Series that used to be prestigious. Not sure how the networks will take to this knowing they have “Challenger” Series events defined that way now. Also, I’m not happy that John Henry and Theo Epstein are involved. Look what Henry has done to the Red Sox.

    • I have been debating getting a launch monitor of some sort, if only so I can re-figure my shot zones (I haven't actually mapped them in years) and also to practice distance wedges at home.  I have to see if this works with either my current setup, or what my setup would be if I move it to the garage.
