"Picked up some distance"

Ha! Kevin claims he can't hit it that far, but when I played with him he was movin' it. And that was well over a year ago.

One of the most humble guys I know when it comes to his game. Well played!

Lol, im feeling like this is my first ever win or something! Very flattering comments but Ive won nearly every important section event we have plus a dozen or so mini tour events and played in PGA Tour and NAtionwide Tour events.

The difference is this, along with last year's West Penn Open, are the first wins since I started hangin around here. I had the full swing, pitching, chipping and mental yips and have been on a 3 year comeback of sorts. Ive finally sorted some things out in my head and am able to produce alot of stuff in events that I couldnt before, not the least of which is pitching the ball. Still alot of work to do but I'll be anxious to tee it up in Hershey to see what I have left.

Thanks again to everybody's support and kind words!

Curious what you did that improved your pitching so much...just practice or technique change(s)?

What's in the bag of the Tri-State PGA Champion? Do you pay for your own clubs or have a sponsor? (I'm doubly curious if you aren't sponsored as I tend to be more interested in what clubs good golfers spend their own money on than what people are paid to play...or play for free)

How many world ranking points come with the Tri-State? Add another name to the list of best players to yet win a major.:)

Who knows about points? I'd like to have what he's holding. Then, maybe I could afford him more than once every few weeks. :)

Information too valuable to divulge here.

And I do not pay for my clubs, balls, shoes, gloves, naked lady tees....

Naked lady tees? No wonder you're doing so well. My buddy got some of those for his birthday - best golf he ever played :)
