Super Dave,   I hear ya, I'm all about playing with better players and I'm honored to be called out for playing "too good" recently.  And to think all I had to do to break my course record was to post it online beforehand!  Likely a fluke round but i would love to start thinking I can throw a 50 regularly!  

I'm the last person anyone should be calling a sandbagger after the year I've had.  2011 was my first year playing competitively.  I played intermediate in 11 tournaments this year and spent most of my time in the bottom-middle groups.  For 9 tournaments in a row I went home with nothing more than a player's package and an occassional CTP prize.   I spent enough money losing tournaments that some guys would have called it quits or moved down to rec div.   Had my scores been for advanced division I would be pretty much be in dead last in every tourney.    So call me a sandbagger or whatever you guys want.. but with an 873 rating and having only made it in the Am payout twice.. I think I owe it to myself to play a few more intermediate tourneys until I'm in the payout regularly OR I win one, OR my rating makes it to 900 or higher (whichever comes first)... then I will probably move up to advanced in order to keep pushing myself to get better.  If I can continue to keep those bogies off my scorecards I might move up sooner than later.  We'll see.  :-)

 

I owe a lot of my recent improvements to the development of my flick shot.  After throwing backhand since day 1, I started practicing forehand this past summer and it took until this past November to get used to it and develop some distance and accuracy.  A little bit of credit goes to a handful of our advanced locals who have given me tips along the way (Jobe, Terry R., Gabe  to name a few).

I'm with you Hippy. If you shoot underpar regularly, you are definitely NOT an amateur. If you have a scratch handicap, you are definitely NOT an amateur. The fact that you haven't won a tourney SHOULDN'T play into it.

51 is your best parkside and then you shoot 50 on Sunday. Gimme a break Schenk, you are NOT an amateur. With a scratch handicap you are definitely an Advanced player. Embrace it, play against guys of your caliber and you'll only get better.

I don't think I can make it unless a few of you can meet me out there @ 7:30a.  I have family coming in around noon.   Regardless, I'll see if I can't at least drop a donation in the pot.

@Hippy:  Hell yeah I play ams.. at least until I WIN one!  51 is my best on parkside, 56 on NC.. those are am scores!!  :-)
