and I ain't skeered of golfin many folks around here either We got a strong camp here.......Ted went from (and he won't mind me saying this) a can't play dead guy to a PNC qualifier guy...
............................. "LITERALLY"
Yes . . . "literally".
That is, by . . .
The Book.
From a 60-something Georgia PGA rank in 2004 to a Top 10 in 2010. As Ted himself says "Fat, forty, with a wife and three kids, and still playing just once a week, I realized my dream. I qualified for the PNC."
I'll say . . .
He shot FIVE-UNDER for the two days and finished solo THIRD. All this in a last round beset with high winds and very difficult winter conditions.
Meanwhile . . .
Ted's in training.
He's never smoked or drank.
[He's been my designated driver on every single one of our golf trips! ]
And he's down more than a few pounds.
I'm not sure what to expect next.
My guess is . . .
Probably something good.
His appearance in the field at the Atlanta Athletic Club and the PGA ?
Welcome Jim. I'm not far, Minneapolis, hopefully I can make it to Madison with a couple of TGM/LBG buddies for a lesson this summer!

How long of a hike is that Kevin? Geez, I may have to use all my sick days for my "College Reunion" in Iowa! I need to find a doctor to sign the form!
Do people get the H1N1 flu in MN? Do we know any docs there? Maybe my hip could use an "oil change?"

I think about 6 or 7 hours. I was thinking we could play one of many great courses on the way home from a morning lesson. It would be a long day, but a ton of fun!

We could make it from my house to Madison in 4.5 hrs or so.

What are the dates for this adventure? Are they different from the college reunion dates June 3rd-5th?

I'll carry his bag!
Jeff and I were a little unlucky with our tee times here in FL. We were in the same wave. We had late times on the first day and early today. The wind yesterday felt worse than at the PNC. Those of us with late times suffered a 20mph steady wind with bigger gusts. I shot 77 yesterday with two doubles. I was on the harder course and had two driver miscues into the wind. There were many times that I had a 3 club wind. Jeff was on the easier course and had a great score, 69. Today we had early starting times with temps in the upper 30's. The afternoon guys got temps in the 60's. I played well and shot 74 with only a very few mistakes. Jeff had a 76 on the harder course.
Jeff will have no problem making the cut. It looks like I may be bubble boy (one shot out). I'm not exactly sure where the axe will fall. Although I'd rather be playing tomorrow, I'm just happy to play, since we've had no chance to play in the last couple of weeks in Atlanta. I hope global warming reaches Atlanta, soon. If not I'll keep training and try to play a little starting in March.
