[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 1079031, member: 10086"] Yep. I’m not a Golfer, but I’ve played just enough to learn from someone who walked on at VA tech. They saw my friend at a local driving range while the gold team was practicing. The Coach approached him and he got a free ride scholarship from VA Tech. He told me to always remember on a Put to go a little long, just past the cup. The theory being he had many great puts perfectly in line, but came up an inch short. That’s worse than missing the cup wide but having the correct distance. I always aim through the hole and that advice Won me my only singular golf accolade. We tied 1st place of 24 teams in a Circuit City “Captains Choice” Tournament. My only contribution to those guys was I hit a bunch of 15-30 foot putts. I really owed that small slice of success to my friend. Every put I heard him saying that in my ear and it’s as if he played those Putts while coaching me. He saw the potential in me, but recognized my weakness. They always let me Putt last after that first long sink. Make long or Miss long is the lesson. PS. Two of the Managers I played with played Football at Collegiate and Pro level. Warren (Koegel) stood every bit of 6’5” (trust me he ain’t no 6’3” like his football card showed. He could drive a ball so far you couldn’t see it land. Warren shared many personal stories about playing for Paterno and Madden. One of the Nicest men I’ve ever met. [/QUOTE]
