Hopefully some are way further back than me.

Joined early 2019 after a fitting. Posted the new sticks pretty soon after.

More directly THP, A couple months I won a contest from the Odyssey event.

This is from the 2013 Ultimate Club Testing at Mission Inn. This hole plays downhill, and somehow this ball rolled uphill to nestle itself into that little nook. The flag is in the very center of the top of the picture, so a direct line from the camera to the ball to the flag. Pretty much sums up my breaks on the golf course as long as I've been playing.

I think I might have a WITB photo that's older, but this is the very first THP contest I ever won, back in June 2010. I remember getting a random PM from JB asking for my address, which was odd I thought. Later that day they announced the winner of this new Ghost putter, which I don't even think was in stores as of yet. Justin Rose had just won 2 events with it(should have been 3 but he collapsed at the Travelers).

My oldest picture that's golf related.

This was my first experience and in Iowa! Never imagined Iowa to give me such fond memories. Man that was fun!

Unfortunately I don't have photos from my first 2 events (Get Cured & Regional Rivalry), so we'll go with one of the best pictures ever from the 2016 Grandaddy

Oldest one I could find was when I was selected to review the new Ben Hogan Precision Milled putter. I received the BHM01, and this was the first in hand photo I put up:

I'm feeling very aged very quickly looking in here.(n)
 
Bought this phone because I got into a thp event back in 2018 so the first few pics I have on here are of that event. Phone is still going strong!

I'm currently skimming the first big event I went to, the 2012 Ultimate Demo Day and man, I'm laughing at some of these personal attacks.

WOW. JUST RUDE.
 
2016: My first time playing with other THPers at Bear Creek (men only!) in Colorado. We additionally played a round at Todd Creek.I had a great time and learned a lot. One of the people there was a former PGA tour pro (at least on a developmental tour kind of thing, I think).

2016: #TheCup True Blue and Caledonia

These two would be from July 2016, my first THP event. This was during a pre event warm up round at Caledonia playing with BigSoil and Squirrelydave. That event was the start of some amazing friendships and where I really fell in love with THP and began to understand what it's about.

Contents of mystery grab bag circa 2020. Still mad at @JeffreyRoy86 for leaving that towel at the range we warmed up at before a tournament 😂

This may not be the oldest, but one of the early ones and most memorable. Volunteer for the MC and I snapped this picture before all the participants were released to the range.

I wish I had a video of the "stinger" chip shot on the practice green at Contraband Bayou in Lake Charles.
 
I don't know where the photos are, but here is a video I made of The Kingdom Experience event I was at with Jake (P4B) and Steve (DrTeeth) in 2011.


 
Most of mine don’t exist anymore thanks to tapatalk

Never miss an opportunity to work on the stinger. Short game area be damned
