How many of you have been in and survived with a win under the gun? I am talking about actual tournament play and not just weekend side bets.

In one month I'll be starting my 22nd year of Men's club tournaments. As far as playing under pressure, it doesn't normally bother me at all. I play almost every round of golf with the same mindset - to play a wells as i possibly can that day.

My lifetime best round of 73 came in the 3rd round of the club championship in '89, and it was also the first time I ever broke 80 - I won my flight going away that year, and I've won whatever flight I've been in several times over the years. I've never been a skilled enough player to qualify for championship flight though - never made it higher than one flight below that. My first Ace also came in the final round of the club championship, and I've won many other team and individual tournaments over the years.
