Hi Everyone My name is djvirg and I am addicted to Golf. It has been 16 hours since my last round.
I truly am in love with this game, it consumes me...I take about 500 imaginary practice swings a day. I am constantly working to get better. It is a pipe dream but I would some day love to make my living playing this game. I feel I have every shot in the bag, just need to get everything to click.
I picked up this game my freshman year in HS (12 years ago) when my dreams of playing on my high school baseball team didn't quite work out. I was heartbroken and needed to compete. I spent the whole summer and following school year practicing to earn a spot on the HS golf team. I managed to land the number 6 spot my first, year and by my senior year I was co-captain.
January following graduation I was all set to attend school in Florida to become a Teaching Pro. But in those 7 months leading up to my departure, I lost interest in the game and decided to take a break. I do not regret the choice I made, I often wonder what would have happened if I went through with it, but I am happy with the things that have happened... I earned a degree in Advertising and Design and I bought my first place.
Everyday I am haunted with this thought "sell your place, buy a little condo in Florida, practice all day, bartend at night and after a year or so join the Gateway Tour"...I keep telling myself if not now ....when.........who knows!!! I look forward to chatting with all of you, sharing my knowledge, learning from you and making friends that share my interests...
Peace..I'm Out!!!
