I’m always surprised by the number of people I run into who don’t play solo rounds. Not only do they not play solo rounds, they would rather not play at all than play by themselves. I just don’t get that. Sure, it’s fun to play with your friends. It’s fun to play in tournaments and … Read more
One of the best pieces of tournament advice out there is to not play courses blind. Your tournament round should not be your first round on that course. If it is, you are just asking for trouble.

Wow, we are officially in the double digits for the countdown. The GBO is a little over 3 months away and there is still so much to do. I know I say this every time, but damn this is flying by. I almost feel like I’m behind already. This week I had a realization that … Read more
