Will You Create Your Legacy - 2015 #THPLegacy Event

SuperStroke
Probably just had the best range session of my life today. Hit the 146 flag stick twice, sunk a coupe into the 90 yard out oil drum at my range. My goal in 5 months is to have everyone question my handicap.

Dart board?
Paper Rock Scissors?
Truth or Dare?
Pin the Tail on the Hacker?
 
What are all of you doing to make this different? What are you doing to make sure you don't have any regrets once your legacy unfolds in late July?

Pretty much everything short of PED's and illegal balls.

Properly activating my glutes.
 
Let's just say Tiger's mojo will be back in August. In the meantime, I'm winning like Charlie Sheen.
 
Hmmm makes a statement for sure.

Going to start putting in some work this weekend :). Starts with Pinehurst but that is only the beginning I hope to have my game and a whole different level come July.
 
I hit the course today and shot my best since starting playing again. I've only got about 10-15 rounds and pulled out a 90 today. Should've been an 86 or 88 but had 2 total back to back blowup holes. Driving was good, putting was better then a 2 avg but my short game made me scramble like crazy today. All in all a big improvement and getting better each time out.

Nice Papa! Keep it up.
 
Really didn't want to go for a run today. I mean really didn't. Usually when I feel like that, it goes away after the first 5 minutes on the road. Not today. It was a real grind the whole way. Thinking of this event helped get me through it. Showing up in Myrtle in good shape and at the top of my game is what this is all about for me.

Honestly I haven't stopped thinking about it. I couldn't focus today on anything other than this. I'm trying to put together a practice routine and plan of action. There is so much to do in such a little bit of time. July seems so far away but it will be here before we know it.
 
Im watching the past couple years of US Open. Trying to learn Jim Furyks putting routine. So, i talk to my caddy, line it up, take a couple practice strokes, stand over the ball, then back off, and then repeat all steps 2 more times.

Ok, got it. Im golden now.

I'm not sure you would call what Charlie Sheen does 'dating.'

I do two a day workouts 3x per week. It's nothing crazy, one is 20 minutes of pure strength training, and the other is a 15 minute, non-stop core workout. There have been times I didn't want to do it, but this event has been a huge motivator. It's amazing what an event like this can do for a person's drive to be better.

I know everyone is formulating their game plan to get ready for this event but I wanted to offer one bit of advice - make sure you work on your sand game. Inevitably you are going to be in a bunker of some sort (most likely a waste bunker) during the weekend, especially at True Blue. You can drive your cart in the waste bunker areas so they tend to be a bit packed down and hard. They definitely aren't like the fluffy sand that most of us might be used to playing from and they can be really tricky to get out of if you aren't prepared.

Before last July I'd never played in a waste bunker before and was completely caught off guard (granted I was only playing a fun round so it didn't really matter). Both courses are spectacular but they are tough.

Good thought. Most of the courses I've played on the past few years have always had crap, packed down sand for bunkers. Probably not like you are talking about though.

So is it similar to hitting off dry hard pan or is it more of a wet packed dirt?

Sounds like Texas fairways right now.
 
Sounds exactly like the sand traps out here right now. More along the lines of cart path than sand trap.
 
Waste bunkers that are driven on are more like hard pan. If you are a picker they are not bad, if you are a digger, you need to learn to pick those shots

Getting really curious how the teams are going to get picked.

I have a vision in my head of Mike & Ricky sitting in a smoke filled room, drinking scotch & buying each player until teams are filled.

Maybe for half the field, the rest of us they play paper, rock, scissors and go best of 3 :alien:

Not true. This is a handicapped event and fully expect everyone involved will give their very best and be playing the best golf of their lives. It's a team event and we all want to win but its also about creating your own legacy. How do you want to be remembered? Do you want to look back and think "If only I did a little more?" Handicaps are great but they really are just a number. It's about so much more than that number.
