I wish I had enough game to be at Q school this week. The pressure must be big for potential PGA freshman. I can dream.

I just started reading a book called "The Fine Green Line." He starts off with a little bit on Q-School and whatnot. So far so good in the book (I'm on page 50).

I plan to watch (i.e. TiVo) a little bit of TGC's coverage tomorrow.

PGA West's Stadium Course as "the final challenge." I've played the course a number of times, and it is my favorite course, but I'd hate to have to shoot under par or even par to stay in or around the cut line. That place is TOUGH!

It was fun to watch the round yesterday. To be fimiliar with the holes and shots the guys were facing.

It was pretty amazing watching the last three holes last night on GC. I don't think I've ever seen so many putts hang on lips as I did during this tournament. You can really see the pressure on the players faces and in their swings, even some of the fourth and fifth timers.
ESPN.com did a really neat job following three players through Q school.

Played two round there in 2003 with a local kid (asian dude, don't remember the name - every ranger knew him), told me he'll be trying for this year Q-School. From the back tees it's as tough as they come. I shot 81 and was proud of it, the kid shot 67 and lipped a few putts... It's amazing how good one can be (and HAS TO BE) to have a shot. Wonder if he made it...

      Turning Stone - Thoughts & Updates?

      By StuM · Posted

      I was recently told that Turning Dtone in New York is a nice overall resort and they’ve they have 3 courses as well as many other amenities. A quick TST search turned up older threads with a lot of comments on how difficult the courses are. Does anybody know if they have “relaxed” the courses over the years or are they still hard as far as resort courses go? I do not mind a hard course but my wife can get frustrated but if good scenery and good course conditions she may still enjoy a hard course. What are your thoughts on their courses and the resort in general? Edited for typos

      Day 9 - (9 Jun 26) - Weekly nine hole session with my good friend, I played again from one set of tees up from my usual (set up the bag 4h, 6i-Pw, Gw, Lw) to focus more on iron play in the approaches (esp longer ones on the 4's and 5's).  Used the hybrid for tee shots only, had to play irons in from there on....made for a great work on course management and dealing with iron shots I normally don't see.  Key focus was on keeping ball in play, playing to distances that set up for either GiR or nGiR's.  Played a split nine (5 on the front, 4 on the back - the turn works nicely as both nines turn and run parallel coming in - easy to jump from 5 to 15 (especially when the course is not busy)).  Worked with my friend on his course management skills - offering thoughts as a "caddie" might and helping him to confidently choose and execute the shot he was seeing.
