Turtleback, why are you even dragging this up here to the top of the board? Drop it.

Does not compute. You were posting less than one day ago in this thread.

Hey guy, unfortunately I could not remember my old sign in, but I am the original poster. I appreciate all the feed back. Also wanted to point out a lot of you are confused on some of the articles. Th

Not understanding is one thing.  Saying that the guy "gives up too easily" and has a "loser's mindset" is another. What age should he have quit?  As a golfer he was probably top 5% in the world a

There has been alot of these threads lately.  To be honest you should never have to ask this question.  Noone can tell you what you can achieve or not.  My best advice is to play in as many am tournam

Look, I made a post that took this in the wrong direction. I don't wish to keep pushing as it is silly.

Kind of weak apology, but okay.

Matthew Bond, sorry for the earlier post that questioned things. Good luck in the mini tour. BTW, how did you do in that Queensland Open last year?

So everyone is supposed to read your mind?

And if you wanted it dropped, why did you respond?

But then again, what the hell do I know?

Dear @9iron,

Please don't get creepy. No one likes creepy.

Ernest, what does this even mean? He stated last July that he was going to play an event in Queensland. I', just asking him how he did. That seems to be what this thread is all about i.e. how his budding golf career is going. What am I missing?

I dunno. Maybe you should have included a quote of the "Queensland" post (from a year ago...) or something. Having not read the entire thread, your comment came across as a little stalker-ish. When posting you might want to consider what a first time reader may think based on the content of your post without any attached context or backstory.

Yours in earnest, Jason.

I see everyone's point... Yes my first drop was fast from 22.4 to I think round 16 then another quick drop to 13... But sat on a 11-12 for a while the missing time on these cards is when I was back In australia and those scores are on golf link.. Any way guys I do thank you for the advice and feedback... This was literally my first ever forum . I will keep you updated on results .. I have a 10,000 pro am on tues day and then pre q for Queensland open.

Ernest, this post from mjbond near the top of page 6 was what I was referring to. It was made July 31, 2013 and was in reference to an event that takes place, I believe, in August of 2013. I was just asking Matt how he fared in this event last August. I'd like to watch his progress as much as anyone, so if he has results from last August in Queensland it would be interesting to see them since this thread seems to be about watching him progress from a 22 to his current +2.7.

Hi Guys, had forgot about this thread.

An update for any one who wants one.

I have moved from Australia to USA SC to continue this dream.

I have turned professional and have my first mini tour event on the 11th of August. I am working harder than ever.

I plan on play the E Tour in the Carolina's and some more pay to plays to prepare me for Canadian Q school.

Thanks to all the supporters.

Congrats man! Great thread.

Please continue to update.

@Ernest Jones simply suggested you quote that post next time, because this time, your inquiry appeared to come out of the blue.

Moving on…

Exactly. I wasn't trying to start anything, I honestly had no knowledge of the post you were referring to (and I imagine very few posters did), without that reference your post seemed very odd. That is all.

 I came across this website/thread after meeting Matthew Bond who originally started this a few years ago. I know many people on here doubted his story, because it was rather remarkable, so I wanted to post an update for anyone who might be interested. Its a good read and quite a fascinating story.

Good read..thanks for sharing.

From the land of perpetual cloudiness.   I'm Denny

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      Day 211 (29 Nov 24) - Friday men’s round albeit a solo foursome (temps in the 40’s, day after Thanksgiving and the average age closer to 75 - I’m a youngster at 65).  Interesting day of semi-solid play (8 of 18 GIR). Hit all four par threes in one (a first) - parred each; still had a couple 3 putt bogies; and blew up on 3 of the par 5’s (go figure)). The blow ups were some serious tree rattlers - amplifying how I got stupid and greedy instead of smart and content to just get back in the short stuff.

      Day 60 - 2024-11-29 Got about 3.5' of snow today, so I was going to go to Golf Evolution, but… I only left the house to throw some snow. Instead, i checked out my putting stroke on HackMotion in the basement. Turns out… it's pretty good, and I'm very in touch with what I'm doing.

      First time playing this game, Spanish is my native language. It was impossible for me. After 4 worlds I run out of worlds that have the letters I've already found that can be combined with the remaining letters.. just repeated the 4th world to knew the answer. I know the world but it never came to my mind.
