    That's THE most intelligent sentence I have read so far at WGT. Why the hell don't everyone try to take this mind set.

    Making Legend in only 300& some rounds? MY HATS OFF TO YOU! I'm well over 600 and I am not sure I want Legend status because my Art/Drawing is more of a passion for me.

    That's a really nicely written post and from the heart. Good job with the golfin and great job writing the post, it really has a lot of meaning for me. GREAT JOB!

    LOL i think everyone at some time or another have found out the hard way that the person they work or play with is a complete moron.

    Super post.Agree totally...

    When I try to get my average down I get bored playing single player and would like some company,

    I really enjoy playing with better players to see those nice shots and great putts.Could care less if I win or lose.

    but I also enjoy playing with lower level players because Im not challenging them Im trying to shoot my best score but yet have some company along the way.

     

     I think the whole problem starts with playing for credits..I dont..I cant therefore I just enjoy the game and try to better myself...for my self...the end...

       This post also resonates with me. I just turned legend in about  975 rounds. I really used to just come out and whack it around the best I could. I would get clubs and credits as gifts from my gamer kid on Fathers Day and such. Then one day old TGor responded to the Discover Card offer, about 5 months ago, and the rest speaks for itself. Bought all top of the line equipment except for 2 wedges and my trusty putter. Then went out and practice, practice, practice. I scoured over the forums for tips on everything. But the biggest gain of my improved performance came from joining a fun country club, that always has great tournaments happening. It just makes you want to keep playing, nonstop ! Heck, I might even win a tourney if everyone goes on vacation. lol. Cheers and well done mate !
