Hey

[InternalGolf]

I've been here for a little bit and Just started playing golf. I though I would introduce myself so you guys/girls will know me around the forum. I live in NC and started around 3 months ago. My first time out I shot a 94. I love golf and will discuss with you guys about almost everything I find interesting. I am 14 years old also.

Hello sandtrap members. I've been playing golf for a while now and know for sure that if I worked hard enough I could be in the plus area. I'm from Los Angeles and I play golf at least twice a week. Last month I posted 15 rounds so my index is pretty accurate. But don't let it fool you, I've shot two rounds over 90 this year. Weird, huh? Anyways, it's great to be here.

Where do you play in LA?

[lagolfer]

Well, my dad has a Red Dot book, so we play all over the L.A. area including Ventura, San Bernardino, Orange, and Riverside. Even sometimes near Palm Springs. So we travel somewhere once a week and then I play a twilight or supertwilight at Brookside (next to the rosebowl) in Pasadena (my home course).

at Brookside (next to the rosebowl) in Pasadena (my home course).

There's a Pepsi Tour event there on the 5th of Nov. You playing in it?

[lagolfer]

I don't think so. I would only play in a tournament like that, knowing that the entry fee is $100, if I was confident I could shoot like 3 under on #1 and 5 under on #2, or if I had an index like yours. My best on course #1 and #2 is a 71 and 68, respectively, with an average of like 76 and 72. So I don't think I'm ready to compete with guys that are playing at that level. Could I be ready by Nov. 5, though? Maybe. I'd have to practice the weakest part of my game (shots inside of 80 yds) like every day until then, my bunker shots (which I recently saw Travino explain to Natalie Gulbis that the best bunker players he's seen play the ball in the back of thier stance), and get rid of a ridiculous hook I have with my mid-irons.

Well, you should keep that link on you. The Pepsi Tour has their Twilight Tour with a tournament at Brookside every week. I think Wednesday afternoons. Cost is around $100.

That's funny, I played a Pepsi tour tournament like six years ago and it was on a Wednesday at Brookside, and the guy said every Wednesday. Talk about keepin' it goin! I even heard there's this one guy who's made like 50k on that tour. Is that possible?
