I think it's time to give up the dream.

I say we shouldn't rub it in too hard.  The kid is likely eating a lot of humble pie right now, and it can't be too sweet.

I think most of us that saw that swing figured he wasn't a 3 index anyway.  That's why I suggested earlier in this thread that he was better off chronicling his swing development and perhaps seeking advice, as opposed to talking about being a future tour pro.

I am not going make the kid feel worse than I'm sure he does. I am glad he has a passion for golf and I really do hope he pursues it. I wish I would have found golf earlier in my life then maybe I would be pursuing a golf career. I will just give the guy a heads up though, look at Peter Ulhien(sp). The guy was breed for golf, former #1 amateur in the world, and now struggling on the European Tour. Keep you sights high and know that there are other golf careers.

My original quote stands here.... So what happened? Be honest and I am interested. Did the rain throw you off? Was it tougher than you had previously thought, the pressure more than expected or competition greater than you have experienced? Redeem with honesty, what did you learn?

There's a Facebook profile (with very lax privacy settings, apparently), under the name "Zach Woods" with the same profile pic a your TST profile. He's been posting all day. As has @FutureTourProZW. Now, I'm not a detective but...

I wouldn't have even had to look at the Facebook to verify. I can guarantee a father that just lost his son would be in shock and mourning his sons death, not jump online to bash people. I did not know this person but any respect I had for them is completely out the window for a stunt like this.

And now we see just what a bunch of BS this whole thing was.

At this point the thread should be locked and deleted.  None of this is funny, it's actually sad.

The good news is that on Twitter he's down to a 0.5 handicap. Now I never knew you could have different handicaps for different internet sites, but there you go.

Even if everything you said in this paragragh was true, the last sentence still would not be.  Regardless, this was in very poor taste.  It's probably time to end this charade.
