People good enough to go to Q School aren't reading golf forums.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

What if they went to Q-School 20 years ago and never made it?

Didnt have it when I played some Tour events-Well, started in the mid-60s I think but not many went that route, a few, most just played role of rabbit or qualified and played in the events close to 'em like me. Never wanted to TOur-no money in it till the 70s or 80s.[quote name="14ledo81" url="/t/78497/how-many-members-on-this-site-went-to-q-school#post_1082568"]Maybe @Phil McGleno did???

The golf coach at the college I taught at in Oklahoma went through Q-School twice.

The first time, he needed to par the last two holes of the final round, and bogied both. Another near miss the second time.

He said you just have to go out and play and see what happens. (Overall message: don't overthink it).

Focus, connect and follow through!

    • Back in my Army days a "gooch" was a particular part of the anatomy. Example, say Okeechobee is the b-hole of Florida, then Belle Glade would be the gooch. Seems he wears his name well.
    • I can't say that I remember a lot of individual putts, but I do have one specific memory.  The first time I played the Old Course, I had hit a pretty good drive on the 6th hole.  I had about 60 yards left, and due to the swale in front of the green, there was no chance of flying a wedge on or near the green and having it stop on the green.  My caddie recommended either a running 7-iron chip or a putt, and I took the putter and a pretty hard swing.  The ball rolled over humps and through hollows, disappeared into the swale in front of the green, and re-appeared heading right at the hole.  I ended up maybe 12 feet away.  The caddie turned and held out his hand to shake mine, and said "Now THAT was a golf shot!"
    • For the first time since 2021, I made a 3 on the 12th at Stoneleigh.    395 yards, something like 80 feet uphill, I hit a solid drive and a 7-wood to inside a foot.  Even I couldn't miss that one.  I feel like I haven't played a lot of golf this year, but I'm making decent progress.
    • Wordle 1,050 5/6 ⬜🟨🟨⬜🟩 🟨🟩⬜⬜🟩 ⬜🟩⬜🟨🟩 ⬜🟩🟩🟨🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 I felt all were good shots, but bogey it is.  Maybe this hole was a par 5?
