2014 Texas State Am to US Junior - Page 35 - Golf and Golf Tournament Forum

offtopic:
my last post in this forum was april 2015.
Many things happened- wife, kid, job, quit poker,
Because of a child (she is 2 now) had to take a break from golf. But after Masters I know that next year I'm playing again. Wanted to work indoor this winter so I open YT- Nick Taylor - > Rob Cheney -> 51 stroke podcast with Scott Fawcett .... I had to open 2+2 again to check who started "Is Drive for Show Putt for Dough really true?" topic

wow just wow

LOL! I can't believe how many followers I have on Twitter and IG that are from the 2010-2013 2+2 days. Suffice to say we've made some progress changing the game!

I've had people tell me I've just copied Mark Broadie in Every Shot Counts regarding Drive For Show....I then say "well, I wrote a thread on it in 2011 five years before his book came out with that exact title!

right click on the image i posted, select 'save image as...' and put it somewhere you can find it again.
then go to 'My 2+2' in the upper left, select 'edit avatar', and pick the file you just saved. ezpz

I don't know if it will happen tomorrow or not, but a win at some point this year seems super likely.

Crazy clutch eagle on 18, such a stud. I don’t see Will ferrying any corn in the near future.

Finished T7 which automatically gets him into next week with no help. Rough estimate moves him to 51 in OWGR. Top 50 gets into to everything including the Masters dependent on when cutoffs are for various events.

What is Will's current status? Special temporary or does he have a full card? I'm surprised to see that today didn't seem to earn him FedEx points based on the online leaderboard - so I guess that means still non-member? Through this whole season unless he wins or what?

I'm hoping to get to the WMO Thursday and look forward to following Will around a bit.

Is OP still caddying for Will?

A game-saver for my T10 bet. Only bet I won this week

I have followed this thread from the beginning and it has made me a Zalatoris fan. I always check tee times to see if he is playing. It is great to see his progress and success.

Ship - great job with this thread!

If he can get just a touch better with the putter (and I think he will) I truly believe he could be pretty special.
The local Dallas qualifier had a conflict in his schedule so he went there.

Scott saw the potential from the drop

He's just taken over the spot from last week (53) that 'Young Rickie' held.

Good luck to him that he surpasses that expectation.

Raise your hand if your left arm would break in that position. Ouch.

You can sure see how he gets so shallow from that position.

Just stiffed it on 16. That will get him to -7 on the round and -12 for the tourny and just one back.

Hell no...I said from the jump I wouldn't caddie on Tour. I stand by that! I went through a bunch of this thread today looking for stuff for the unreal posts by Elkington on Twitter today and wow is this thread great.

Such fun memories to go back through. I have a webinar in a bit but I'll try to catch up on the rest soon.
