Your story is so close to my own its scary lol. Save I'm couple years older and I'm planning competitive rounds this summer. Good luck will follow your progress

First off.....Ohio State.....really??? (sorry, hawkeye fan here).

I have/had a similar goal as you, except my top aspiration was simply making the cut at the Iowa Amateur Open. But hey, if things go well, a course I typically play nearby is an Amateur Public Links qualifier course. I say 'had' because I have a newborn son, and I'm still playing plenty of golf, but I'm doing a lot less traveling and competing this year. Perhaps next year I'll start traveling around for tournaments, and maybe next year I'll travel the 38 minutes it takes to get to the nearest driving range.

Still, I wish you luck. I know the many fine members of THP will be a support for you!

Thank you guys, and good luck to you both as well. It's a tough deal, but it's worth the time and work (if you have the time, that is).

Rock - I will be playing in the Ohio Amateur as well, and the amateur portion of the Ohio Open. Also plan to do some Columbus area amateur events, too.
