I am not sure how to upload videos from my phone. But would love some help to show you guys the progress


Just upload the videos to youtube, and then add the link with the little "film" icon above the text box.

The uploading to youtube part can be a little work, but there are instructions on youtube for this.

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

Ahhh, he is a +2.7 now...just saying.

+2.7 is great. Certainly getting a lot closer. Any mini tour results?

I have a friend who wins down in Florida / Carribean with some regularity, but he never came close at Q School when they had it. He also dopes not have web.com status. Getting on tour is ridiculously hard.

Those scores don't look all that different from mine and I am no tour player. Just sayin'.

That was 2011.  Just sayin' ;-)

No 9 hole course there that course your referring to is 27 ... With three individual 9's so the can switch up the 18 you play each week..

With all due respect, anyone can enter scores into the system and get a handicap. That doesn't mean the scores are true.

The day you start posting links to tournament results you'll be more believable. Right now this is all one great big "trust me." Not stated to dampen your enthusiasm either, but Shorty made me question some of what you wrote and I'm a bit skeptical that I can't find any golf result of any kind for you. I am a pretty good digger when I want to find something, and I have found results for guys on the miniest of mini tours before.

OP, any plans to try to qualify for the Wyndham in Greensboro next month?

My coach Ian Triggs arrives in a week to spend some time going through some mini tour events and see how I cope. All going well If I feel I am ready then I will defiantly go. It is on the radar.

He has a pretty nice swing.

Plus, it's really cool hearing about someone going from a 22 handicap down to a +2.7. Really, cool.

Dude, it's from 2011. What's your beef?

The day he starts is already posted. August 11 I believe. Let's see what he does then. You have his name already, so… chill.

Why are you so intent on tearing this guy down?

You don't read his posts (how could you think you'd find anything from any mini tour when he SAID he hasn't started yet).

You dig up scores from 2011 to "prove" he isn't  +2.7 (what other purpose is dredging up 3 year old scores?).

Yeah, he put himself out there with his dreams and aspirations and sure people can take shots at him.  But it would be nice if the criticism was done in a fair way, not with unsubstantiated questioning of his honesty.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Darkfrog ·

      Day 20: Did 30 minutes after getting home from work, before kid's baseball practice. This session was piecing out the new hip move in transition, doing 2-3 rehearsals from the top, and then hitting a ball from between P5/P6. Did another 45 minutes after baseball practice and dinner. Did 30 more minutes of what I did earlier, and then about 15 minutes of full swings trying to incorporate athletically.

      My Favorite Putts

      By bkuehn1952 ·

      #4 - 1st hole at Kingsbarns I rolled in a 15 footer for birdie. Showed my caddie an old guy could still play a bit. #3 - 18th hole at Basin Harbor Club, Vergennes, VT. I had played matches against my nephew over the years. He had never beaten me although through the years he had become a long hitting teenage golfer. I was 1 up but bunkered near the 18th green. My nephew had a long putt for birdie. I splashed out of the bunker to 4 feet. He rolled his first putt close and I gave him the par. Sadly for him, I rolled mine in and won our last match. He went off to college and then Europe for a Ph. D. It was our last match. Family champion forever. #2 - First playoff hole in the City of Livonia, MI “65 & Over” division. I rolled in an 8 footer that broke about 4-5 inches. #10 Whispering Willows GC. #1  18th hole at TPC Prestancia, Sarasota, FL. A 4 foot slicing putt for par to beat the prior year’s Member/Guest winners and win the Member/Guest with my father at his club. I was having heart palpitations as I played the final hole solo when my father put two in the water. There was never a better golf sight for me when that ball dove into the hole.
