2011 Goals
Snap Hook
I before E,excpt Titleist
My Highlights from 2010.
* Breaking par for the first time!!! I'm a 4 hdcp who has registered more +1 over par rounds than you would believe. Its been choke city on the 18th hole whenever I had a chance. This year I was at Paiute Wolf Course (LV, NV) and I found myself -1 with 5 holes to go. The ensuing 5 pars I carded might have been the most satisfying, solidly played stretch of holes I've ever played.
Goals for 2011
Here in Las Vegas there is a very large Amateur tournament crowd. To qualify to play in their tournaments you only need a hdcp under 5 which I do already qualify. My goal this coming year is to atleast compete in one of those tournaments. Not really expecting to win it, just want to be a part thats all.

I'm going to attempt to not spend over $10,000 on equipment this year. Although, I just bought a new house so I doubt it will be possible either way.
+1 man, I know what you mean.

I see you are from Royston. I get up that way and play Highland Walk a good bit.
Nice! That is my home course! Chances are that I have seen you as I am there 20 hours a week during the spring/summer. Hit me up next time you are in the area.

1) Significantly reduce errant tee shots
2) Get rid of the blow up rounds altogether (closely tied to #1 )

I think after our Northeast Gathering she will be playing more, plus you can always get her a new club for the holidays!

That's not a bad idea, maybe a "pretty" new driver.

that's a thought. I know we mentioned it after we played. Maybe during April or so. I'd like to do an overnight(well for me at least), driving to Scranton and back was a long day.
One of my goals is to play more golf with people from THP!

Well, if the weather isn't completely craptacular, I'm hoping we can do a little get together shortly after the mystery irons arrive in the next couple weeks.

Hanks - I knew I liked your style for some reason :thumb: Well that and that great quick humor you possess! Another one of my goals is to listen to Hanks spout the one liners out at the I-bar at WPB in May. This dude is freaking hilarious

Nah the only thing that stops OEM is distance. It sucks that we both have to drive an hour just to okay golf with each other

Another one for me, I've started to feel confident in my bunker game, mainly because last three times I've been in a greenside I've got up and down twice and barely missed the other putt. So my goal is to become at least 50% sand saves in Greenside bunkers and if I can do that, 60%.

Exciting Times
I'm a little late to this party, but here's my 2011 goal, a pretty simple one: Break 100 and continue to improve. So this will entail lots of practice, but I think I'll be able to do it.
