Monte - assuming you're almost certainly out of making the top 5, what is your view on your chances of finishing in the top 30?

 

Do you have a goal now that two rounds are complete?

 

A pair of 68's s probably the minimum needed.

 

Since I made 6 birdies today and stepped on my privates on 3 of the par 5's, it's possible, but I am going to have to really clean things up.

All "tips" are welcome. Instruction not desired. 
 

 

The problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, and wiser people so full of doubts.

Can we turn this into a game? Maybe it will help your focus for the couple holes you have BSOD.

 

I pledge to donate, in honor of your son, to the JDRF:

 

$20 per eagle

$10 per birdie

$0 Par

-$5 Bogey

-$10 Double+

 

The total over the next 2 rounds will be donated on Monday 12/5. I recognize it doesn't look like much, but I'm hoping it'll turn into a lot!!

Im glad the mini worked out. In true golfwrx fashion "Yeah its my go to 300yrd fairway finder"

 

Probably only one of the few that can truthfully say that in the forums. I mean talk about a 1st world problem. " I need a mini driver because when I hit my 2i 250-260, it makes it too hard of a "lay up" and my 340+ yard drives are too long". I wish I had that "problem."

 

Monte, you got this!

Borrowing some schtick from one of our forum friends, Mrs. Hawkeye77 didn't know there were options other than the mini driver, let alone that they could be stepped on. ;-)

 

A Cinderella story playing Golf In The (Magic) Kingdom - should be great the next couple days!

Didn't realize your son is a type 1 diabetic. I am also a type 1 diabetic, and would like to contribute likewise. It's a continual stress, with lots of highs and lows (literally and figuratively).

 

Good luck out there tomorrow!

Don't be the guy who we really hope is gonna make it happen. Be the guy who we know is gonna make it happen. You've got these claws, man, and these fangs and you're asking "how do I kill the rabbit?"

 

And you've got these f-ing claws!

 

And these f-ing fangs!!

 

You're so money.

Good luck today, Monte!

JDRF has a tribute donation option.

 

https://www2.jdrf.or...rc=siteMenuLink

 

I plan on filling in the form as so:

 

 

 

We will need an address or something to send to the acknowledgement letter to, so that'll need to be worked out. Parmark do you know if Monte has a PO box or anything?

 

I'll also need to know which specific chapter it should go to:

 

 

 

-1 through 4 so far! Get it going today Monte!!!

Driver: Callaway Paradym 8* (draw, std) - GD ADXC 7x

3 wood: Taylormade SIM 15* - GD ADDI 7x

5 wood: Ping G30 18* - Diamana Blue 83x

FYI - I believe Monte's son's first name is Ronin.
