The Dan Plan - 10,000 Hours to Become a Pro Golfer (Dan McLaughlin)

[GHIN0011458]

We have been waiting 5,346 hours for this! We should have a free club if you can name the final score/place for Dan.

I don't think we do.  We'll get to see hisfull hole-by-hole score, but we're still (I suspect) not going to find out anything until after he's completely finished.

At least that's how it works in the tournaments I play in.  There certainly aren't any live scorers following us around, but after the round the organizers upload everything into bluegolf.com and so there is a record of everything.

What? No live telecast? We've been waiting for 5,347 hours!

Although, if Dan knew that so many of us were following, he should have a friend of his update his personal blog as he goes, for our sake!

He could do it with a caddy wearing a gopro.. If he knows we are watching, all the more pressure to perform.

The link is updating every few minutes with hole by hole results, but only capturing them at holes 4, 9, 13, and 18. Very cool..... I say he shoots 80 even.

So, am I correct to assume that "Travis Philpot" quit after 4 holes on the front and back? It looks like +7 does not make the cut?

I think they are playing modified blue tees "6668 yards"

Normal Blues are: 71.4/127 at 6525 yards.

Lol.. not sure.. the scoring is always off. You can choose not to give someone your scores. Every three holes they typically just say name and last 3 scores and that is how it is updated here at least. Did you see Johnny Miller is playing in this thing?

Isn't he the long drive kid? I don't think he's the "Johnny Miller". He shot even par.

Cool!  They got their stuff toegther up there in Oregon, I guess!!  I stand corrected ... my apologies @Todd Ruggere .

[Lihu]

I think he needs to shoot +4 or less (if there are more +3 guys in the final count) to be one of the "37" that go to the 105th Oregon Amateur.

EDIT: first 4 holes are: birdie and 3 bogies. He probably won't make the cut. I'll give him 25% chance, right now. May go up if he gets more pars.

I'll estimate 79 final score.

[Golfingdad]

He's +2 after the first four hole update ... birdie, bogey, bogey, bogey.  Dan, this is your stop, get off the train!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Kieran123]

Alfonso Power is -13 through 4.

Such golf, many skill

Well that's what happens when you start 1,1,1,1 on 3 par 4's and a par 5.

Somebody should keep an eye on him ... I bet he's Kim Jong Un in disguise!!

6 over through 9. He's gonna have to pick it up to shoot my predicted. 80....

http://www.ghintpp.com/OregonGA/TPPOnlineScoring/CourseStats.aspx?id=372 Based on the averages of those holes so far, a 77 is about the middle score. Since 37 of the 73 move on, I'd think Dan needs a 77 or thereabouts. He's +6 thru 9. That's 78 if he pars every hole on the back.
