We just found out my wife is pregnant with our first baby and I am so dadgum excited you wouldn't believe it! We will be delivering on the 18th green at the local couse and I am looking for some Foot-Joy booties as we speak (jokes, of course).

I wish I could! I played there last week (I think it was last week...), and was really happy with the condition of the greens. The last 2 or 3 times I played it last spring\summer they were pretty bad. I think I am going to stay off the course for 2 or 3 more weeks and do nothing but work on stuff at the range and putting green (Boring, I know).

Oh my gosh, that is great! I have been wanting to start playing competitively but my handicap ballooned last year after not renewing my membership at Willow Creek, effectively cutting my golf time in half and it will take me 'till next spring to get where I want to be. It would be interesting to see just how many tours have appeared since Tiger started playing and interest in golf began to explode. Thanks for the link!

Choi

I can see it now:

"I think his middle name should be Choi." "Why? Where does Choi come from anyways?" You then proceed to utterly humiliate yourself trying to come up with an explanation other than the actual one.

Uh, uh, Choi was my great-uncle's second cousin's 3rd wife's dog's name, yeah, thats it! Really special dog, it was, no, really!

Thanks for all the congrats! If I go with a golf middle name, I would probably have to go with something like Ace and just pray it rubs off!

Middle Names: Birdie, Bogey, par, 5 iron? That would be an awsome last name.

      New, College Golfer Trying to Go Pro

      By DaveP043 · Posted

      I know one recent college grad who's trying the same thing.  This guy was a Division III All-American, went on to play one year at Division I LSU, and is not working hard.  He won the Gulf States Open, a pro event, and made it to the second stage of the Korn Ferry Tour School late in the fall.  And didn't make the cut to get to the final stage.  I won't talk about swing or play stuff, but I believe there are a couple of things that are essential.  Obviously, talent, and drive, or work ethic.   I can't tell you how to do it, but you HAVE to get through it.  Golf is going to be your life, and it takes lots of work. Two more things that are really critical.  You'll need the facility to be able to practice.  My young friend stayed in Baton Rouge, as a past player on the team he can still use the LSU practice facilities.  And money.  Its unlikely you'll be able to work a full-time job and practice the way you will need to.  You'll probably need backing, from a parent, from a consortium of friends or club members., something to support you. Good luck, its not an easy path, but anything is possible.  Another young man from our area, Mike Brennan, just won for the first time on the "big" PGA Tour.

      Get more comfortable with being uncomfortable. If you don’t like practicing then give up now. You don’t have the passion to become a pro. Unless that mentality changes you won’t do well under stressful situations.    Call the PGA Tour and ask. They probably have resources available.
