About this blog

This blog will document my journey of playing on the Golf Channel AmTour. The highs and lows, trials and tribulations, the heartache and achievements. The AmTour is open to all levels of amateurs. This blog is also an attempt to inspire others to chase THEIR dreams no matter their age.
So with a lot of practice and some good fortune you just might see me on tv during the upcoming golf season.

"Yeah runnin' down a dream
That never would come to me
Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads
Runnin' down a dream"

Lyrics from Tom Petty's Running Down a Dream.

Quote from A League of Their Own
Jimmy Dugan: ... sneaking out like this, quitting, you'll regret it for the rest of your life. Baseball is what gets inside you. It's what lights you up, you can't deny that.
Dottie Hinson: It just got too hard.
Jimmy Dugan: It's supposed to be hard! If it wasn't hard, everyone would do it. The hard... is what makes it great!

Support

Before I get to far ahead of myself, I would like to acknowledge a few people in my life that has made this chase possible.

First of all my loving wife, without her support and I mean true honest support, I wouldn't have the ability to really "go for it".  I can not thank her enough for NOT bashing the idea, or saying "You cann't do it because blah blah blah."  Or belittling the idea.  Thanks again honey and I love you very much.

Second is my oldest step daughter, without her coming over and watching the house and taking care of my dogs while my wife and I are gone, would make this endeavor much more difficult.  Thanks for all you do for me.

It is very liberating to set a big dream/goal and not to have anyone close to you laugh, scoff, or mock you.  In many instances that fear of failure is what stops most people from achieving or attempting to reach for everything they have ever wanted.
