An unsuccessful attempt to qualify has forced me to travel to South Dakota for another tournament. Not much to say about my round in Nebraska except that hitting a bunker shot into a 30 mph wind when it is 100 degress is not something I want to do again. I knew the sand was going to fly back in my face so I didn't even look up, but the sand stuck to my neck and arms as if my skin was tape. Getting enough sand off to feel comfortable took a long time. Good thing is that I hit the sand shot to 4 feet and made the putt.
As for where I am now...South Dakota. Where exactly isn't important because it's South Dakota. I'm not suprised I don't have any bars on my cell phone. Where's Cingular when I need it.
Thanks for those who offered their caddying services, anybody now interested in lending their golf game?

Neil,
Keep your head up pal. Remember it took Ben Hogan 7 yrs to get his first win. Your bar is probably not set at "be one of the greatest golfers of all time" at this point. That being said, having a rough spot in your first year as a pro is not unrealistic (listen to the 5 talk about being a pro!). Maybe a better example is Jon Turcott, it took him several years to get a break and now he's pouncing in it w/ 3 straight top 25 finishes on the Nationwide tour.
Keep your head up and your focus on you next shot.
Good Luck in lovely S.D.!
Jerry
