Today was my first lesson with my new golf coach, Sammy Hanson. I am very excited about my renewed commitment. With the several distractors finally completed, all my focus and energy is about golf and improving my game and physical conditioning.

How to quality for PGA Champions Tour
Those of you following my blog might have actually asked the question, How do you qualify for the PGA Champions Tour?
Well, here is the answer:
1. Apply (and send money, of course)
2. Finish high enough in a regional qualifier, unless you are classified as an exempt from this stage.
3. Finish in top 5 of the Open qualifier.
Easy enough? LOLOLOL
Here is the link to the details.

Renewed and Reenergized
Looking back over this blog and realizing how far I have come, it's hard to imagine it has been a year since my last posting. The events and lessons I have learned over the past year are astounding. And for those of you, my friends, that have been patiently waiting for updates and wondering about my progress I am here to say I sorry to have kept you in the dark for so long and I have happy to say that the events of my life which have distracted me are in the past.
I am claiming 2016 as The Year of Golf.

Puerto Rico Amateur Tournament
Lessons Learned
February started with a trip to PR a week ahead of the PGA event on the same course, Trump International. Excited would be putting it mildly. I was able to play a practice round on the more difficult International course. The international course contained numerous elevation changes and breathtaking views. The views included the rain forest as well as the Atlantic Ocean. The wildlife included wild dogs and an abundance of iguanas. Yes iguanas!!!!. There were a few large enough to saddle and ride and having lived in the south for a few years, the thought of catching one to eat it did cross my mind, however I didn't want to run the risk of ruining a perfectly good 7 iron.

The Big Easy Classic
Yesterday was the first tournament I played in almost two months. It was a cool morning as I made my way to the driving range. Making my way I ran into several buddies I haven't seen in a couple months and we exchanged a few barbs and friendly competitive banter. The warm up session usually starts with the short game area to get the ole bones and muscles ready to start moving. Then making my way over to the driving range and start going through the warm up routine. The main purpose of the routine is to find rhythm and tempo. After completing the session I was feeling good and confident. Making my way to the practice putting green and found my putting pace. All signs pointing in the right direction. At the first tee, following player greetings and announcement, the tournament director introduced and announced our names as we teed off.
