Hey Monte, how close are we to making Denver a reality?

 

I had a couple people with interest, but not sure if the deposits happened.

[MMB1500]

Interested in Syracuse. I wanted to come in years past but family commitments have unfortunately prevented me attending. How are things shaping up for that clinic?

[moadhia]

Monte, do we have a date set for NJ ?

Just me so far. I'm a holdover from last year and i think we had only 3 or 4. Need to send in the money to secure a date and venue. First come first served and money is refundable.

Unless I read post #453 on page 16 wrong, I believe Syracuse is set unless something happens. I think Monte will be trying to do Monday qualifying for the Champions tour event in Binghamton, NY which takes place August 18-21 so Thursday qualifying would be August 10 and Monday qualifying be August 14. This would mean that he would be in the area and doing a 2 day clinic on August 12 and 13.

 

I could be wrong, but hopefully he can confirm that. I think he said on the previous page that he's working on getting a schedule out, so that should confirm some things.

 

Also if I'm wrong, I sent in a deposit for my father for Christmas, so Syracuse currently has 2 deposits and my deposit will be going in soon which would bring it up to 3.

[MonteScheinblum]

I am going to compile the full schedule in the next week or so and Syracuse and NJ will be on it.

 

I still need people to send in deposits to know how many are coming.

[MMB1500]

^ Thanks for the info gents. That's helpful. Gonna look at getting my deposit in soon.

We're on the list but we need 5 more. He'll be in the area so don't let him get away. Send in the money it's refundable. This is a bucket list for me!

[Priceyd]

Will send me deposit for Phoenix this evening so glad coming! Loved last year

What's the likelihood of visiting Europe?

He went to England and Scotland the last two years

[SARF]

Thanks. That's good to know.

 

By the way. Got through your thread over the last few days. Inspiring stuff. Especially from someone who has lost 2 club lengths of distance over the last couple years and all consistency! :(

Thanks man. I appreciate it.

Happy New years everyone

I just read thru the entire thread. For any and all wondering "how hard is it to make it on tour", just read this as a primer.

 

2 things I've taken from this journey:

 

1. It takes stones to share a real life experience such as Monte has here on the www., therapeutic or not. I can't think of any others who'll "put it out there" for all to see and comment.

 

2. Scheinblum has stones.

 

Hats off to you bro. :hi:

 

and thanks for sharing.

Only just seen this having pulled my head out of the bunker sand recently.

 

Monte I whole-heartedly wish you the best best of luck and experience on the tour.

 

And thank you for sharing the journey with us mortals

Have gotten a lot of questions on how I’m doing with my game in preparation for Q-school, so here’s an update.

 

To save some time for those who don’t want to read the whole thread.

 

I made it through Regional stage of Q-School for Champions Tour last year pretty easily, blew out me knee, was terrible at finals, had knee surgery, was out 6/7 months, started taking full swings in July.

 

First stage is in two weeks. The only real negative I am dealing with is I have only played one tournament round in 2017. I’m going to play a 2 day event next week.

 

In August and early September, my swing/game wasn’t ready to break par and I didn’t want to waste $500-$800 to shoot a pair of 74’s.

 

Had some bright spots on the trip to Scotland. October had scheduling conflicts with the few events that were available.

 

I have played enough tournaments in my life, this is not a legitimate excuse for lack of performance.

 

Below is my current swing. I’m only hitting up 1-2 instead of the 4-6 I have been in the past. Much better face/path control as a result.

 

Full speed...slo mo below

Swing looking really good. Good Luck.

[Dave D]

Loving the swing Monte, looks gold.

 

Also love how the giant basket throws the perspective and makes you look 3 foot tall :lol:

That’s a regular range bucket :D

Look at how long until after the ball is gone Monte's right foot stays down
