Don goes out (ya, he has a life, wife and kids) and puts up THE best score ever at WGT.

And some still ...never mind.

Give the man his props, naysayers take a rest and run.

Don has been one of the best generous plyers here at WGT, even when he was a hack:)

He honed in, and made it happen,

Hat's off Don!

Thanks Mike.... Olympic is making me feel like a hack all over again. :D

I was pleasantly surprised with all the postive posts and remarks left on my wall , emails recieved , hot chicks throwing their bras at me on stage etc. Some guys aren't crazy about the settings and the few that said I had no life...ha, well I did grind on this one course for 33 hrs chasing it this weekend. They DO have a bit of merit in their words haha

It was a goal. I went at it fiercely when we had the cabo legend 1k and came up short. Im just glad we had settings which allowed it. Doesnt matter to me if someone beats that score or wins a tiebreak against with same, Im done grinding it and wish the best to all those who play. To me it was just achieving a personal goal. Its a sidenote for wgt. I would NOT make it bigger than it is or put my name with the likes of the games true hall-of-famers. Those could've shot a 49 with much less effort that it took me to do it had they so desired.

anonymous:

Do you feel like Maris? Should we put an asterisk next to your 49 because it was from pro tees? Is this a sign that the game has become too easy?

Of course not.

I've been playing this game longer than you. I've been here off and on for three+ years. I watched the game evolve. I don't care if it was and 18 hole pitch and putt. You broke the last big number. You broke 50.

There are several million accounts on wgt. Hundred of thousands of games are played every week. Over the last three years, I wouldn't be surprised to find out 10 million games have been played.

In all of that time, no one has ever broken 50. Ever. Not once.

After your round, no one else will ever be able to say they did it first. That's cool.

Word up, mad props, or whatever the hell people say now, it's iconic.

Well deserved Don!

I just hope some of the "wishy washy's", use the search function and find out what type a man your are.

Heck, enough from me, if I take my hat off again, I'll be bald!

Edit:

Hot chicks?

Damn, feed a brother a bone ;)

Well no hot chicks or real bras tossed at me just yet. Im hoping when I go to the bar this weekend, can go up to a hot chick and say " I shot the first 49 on a virtual online golf game" Without a doubt she will be so impressed and try to take me home with her.
