Despite playing some horrible tourney golf lately I moved up 2 to 946. Just not good enough though. After the disaster at Calapooia I have taken a couple weeks off from playing (maybe a good idea, maybe not) and re-evaluated my game. I have now lightened up my bag...going back to basics and I'm going to be working with new putters that I got last week...hopefully all this will help!

Finally hit 950 almost went up enough to validate my pro am divison. I guess after all the negative input about me playing in mm1 I have no choice but to leave the game as a tourney player, I have had a great time playing in all the tournaments over the past 6yrs and have made some great friends, thanks for all the great memories, and I hope to see you all on a course sometime. Happy trails!

NOOOOOOOOOOOO, don't leave.. just play pro masters, pro grandmasters, or even advanced! You have plenty of various options, meet some new people and so forth...

I can't remember-

If you aren't a current member but play in a tournament (with the 10 dollar temporary member fee) do those rounds factor into your rating once you finally renew, or are they lost to the statistics heap for good?

If you are not current, enter an event but still give the TD your PDGA number, your ratings will be calculated and tracked by the PDGA even though you won't be able to see them on your record until you renew.

So, your rating goes down and you fear it's time to step back from the tourney thing?
You're joking right?
If not, I don't understand.
What ever happened to LOVE of the GAME?
I think that your faith towards the 'ratings' has fogged up your spectacles.

Some people find more "Love of the Game" outside of tournaments. Actually, I'd say that applies to the overwhelming majority of discers.

It's perfectly simple. If you're not getting your hair cut, you don't have to move your brother's clothes down to the lower peg. You simply collect his note before lunch, after you've done your scripture prep, when you've written your letter home, before rest, move your own clothes onto the lower peg, greet the visitors, and report to Mr. Viney that you've had your chit signed.

Really? Negative input? You won the last tournament you were in by 17 strokes. You have more than 50 trophies in the MM1 division - WAY more than anyone else. You have more third place trophies in the MM1 division than anyone else has total trophies. There was a spreadsheet made just for you to track this! Your nickname for years has been Sandy Bagger. And now you complain about negative input, Jeff?

Either embrace it and tell those of us with sour grapes to stuff it or move up. To stop playing tournaments over this seems kind of silly to me...

Sounds like being a big fish in a small pond becomes a way of life, hard relinquished. The 'sure thing' is addictive.

Ok I am going to come clean. I was just pulling a Chris graham I am not going anywhere, I am going down as the biggest bagger of all time. This sport is a activity for me, and playing the tourneys is the time I get to hang out with all my buddies. I am waiting for more of you guys to hit the half century so we can make a division with more than five people. So look out Sam I am coming after you
