Hey guys

[gcaraway]

just wanted to say hi

Hey guys, my name is Greg. I just became a member of this forum and just wanted to say hi. It seems like a great forum and am looking forward to being active. I am 15 years old and live in Fort Worth Texas. My handicap is currently +.8 . So I just wanted to say hi to everyone.

Hello back. Welcome to the forum. How's golf in Texas anyway. I've only been to the driving range.

 

Happy reading and posting.

golf in Texas is amazing.There are over 15 golf courses in fort worth alone (including public and private). Most of the public courses are surprisingly in great shape and are well kept. I travel a lot throughout Texas for tournaments (especially in the summer) and I am really impressed by many of the courses.

I'm not a junior, but that's ok, can't resist stopping by and saying welcome to the forum! I'm sure you'll enjoy it as much as the rest of us do.

What tour are you playing on? +.8 would tear up most of them.

LOL, I was thinking the same thing! He no doubt meant to say he is an 8... +8 would allow him to fill-in in Tiger's absence!

[golftitleist]

No he meant +.8 like he typed.

[SV Golfer]

No he meant +.8 like he typed.

 

Haha agreed... I think he's just really good.

 

Welcome!

+0.8 wont win you many tourneys on a decent tour or any in a state junior, in my zone which is about 70 kids within about an hour of all the courses, there are about 10 that are plus caps and you have to shoot under par to get in the top 5 in our tourneys, gotta be in the 60's to win it if the good players are there.

Sorry, didn't see the decimel point! Need to get my eyes checked...maybe that's why I can't putt!

I disagree, a +.8 will likely be one to two under par on the courses being played on the state tours, and scores like that will generally win a lot of those. The Illinois Junior Golf Association Player of the Year was a +.4 at the time when he won. Now I am aware the the Texas Junior Golf Tour is slighty stronger, but not to the point for +.8 isn't going to do well.

Hey, I'm new here also! Nice to see another Gregg :good: Even though you spell yours wrong :)

Hey there. I also live in Ft. Worth. I'm 2x your age though. Good to see younger guys playing well. Where do you play your tournaments at? Pecan Valley?
