[12 piece bucket]

12 Piece Bucket today crossed another major milestone:

4,000 Posts!

Appropriately enough, #4,000 was NICEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!

Thanks for everything, Bucket . . .

For traveling from NC to GA six years ago to learn from me. [Biggest breakfast bill I ever got from The Cracker Barrel! ]

For taking the bull by the horns per my referral and learning from Eddie Cox. [We haven't talked since!]

For burning a whole lot more than the 'midnight oil' and transcribing word for word the 6th edition, thereby creating a personal, searchable research of your own. From me to you, a heart-felt "Thank-You!



Not to mention . . .

You took the raw data from my first three months of posts, organized them, and created our own archive.

We luv ya, man!







And now, on to 5,000!



P.S. I love this photo of you giving Brian Gay a 'Right Forearm Flying Wedge' lesson in his game room a couple years back at his 10th Anniversary party!

It's been a fun ride! I have spent a TON of time learning . . . can't say enough about how much I appreciate what you've done for me. I LOVE the Golfing Machine . . . everything about it . . . if it weren't for the day you got sick and started posting . . . who knows!

As amazing as the book is . . . as amazing as Homer Kelley was . . . as amazing as the growth of LBG has been from a sick day at home to being on practice tees at Major Championships . . .

What is even MORE amazing to me is how the Golfing Machine has allowed me to be friends with some of the very best people I could ever hope to meet. I have friends I talk with as a result of the book I know for a fact an old North Carolina small town dude could never meet on his own . . . from Sweden to Australia . . . even north of the Mason Dixon. . . I couldn't even spell the places . . . still can't spell some of the names . . . Olberdorker . . . Meatball . . . Norrin Radd . . .

Again I have enjoyed every step of the way in this learning process. . . . I don't take it too serious . . . but I do take friendships very seriously and there are many of y'all that I am proud to call friend. I appreciate y'all more than you'll ever know. Thanks to you Lynn for making this possible. Not just the education, your time and generosity . . but the even more your friendship and all the other friendships that wouldn't otherwise be possible . . . thank you and thanks to all of y'all.
