golf games to play on the course
I know the chances of playing PGA tour golf is slim but like any other sport it can be expensive?
I love to play golf but I don’t know if playing golf as a pro is realistic. I hear that I will have to play golf for a couple of hours every night to become a pro. A pro will have to hit par on any course and even under if they wish to compete with others. What are some other basics that you feel I might need to know to play to the game competively and still try to enjoy the game as I did as a kid?
Let me hit you with some knowledge…
The average professional golfer is probably around a +4 handicap on the courses that you are acustom to. Also, if you have not played in any serious tournaments, tourny play is an entirely different game of golf. If you are a scratch everyday, I personally guarantee you will be about a 5 in tournament play, especially serious ones. Also, take into consideration how many good collegiate golfers there are out there that average a +1index… How many do you think make the tour for longer than 3 years? The answer is less than 2%. If you are really serious about this, and trust me you must be VERY SERIOUS about this, play in some US Open amature qualifiers and see how many great golfers there are out there. Then consider how many of those great golfers get an invite to the US Open, 1! Out of probably over 50,000 at least.
This all being said, it is not impossible to become a pro. There are a couple different ways to get to the show.
1) Graduate Q school
2) Get on Nationwide Tour and Win
3) Win at the right time in your life
4) Play in as many serious tournys as you can
5) Get as much press as you can, this seemed to work for Michelle Wei who is a terrible golfer by the way…
6) Get lucky
So to sum this all up, GOOD LUCK man, you are gonna need it…
