Getting ready for Q School and Q School 1st Stage

It has been quite a while since my last blog... partly because I'm not very good at doing this and partly because I haven't played in an event since the Missouri Open almost 2 months ago! So after Missouri I finally made my way back to Jacksonville Beach to see my condo, it had been nearly 3 months and was beginning to wonder if it was still there. It was so that was nice! 
I have spent the last few months working hard on my game, hitting the gym, and recently some yoga. I can say that my golf game and my mental approach to the game have never been better this late in the year heading into q school.

1st Stage Q School
Last week was my first stage of Q School and was fortunate enough to have a site close to where I live in FL. It is always nice to be able to play in a tournament and sleep in your own bed, trust me that doesn't happen all that often so I enjoy the opportunity! The tournament started on Tuesday and I opened the tournament with a -8, 64. A great start to say the least as it was the low round of the day and my first competitive round in quite some time. I hit the ball great and made a few putts, a fun day for sure. Second round I shot 71. Again another good day just didn't hit it as close as day 1 and didn't make the putts to go really low. Third round I shot a 68. Again solid day of ball striking, played the par 5s well and had a few short birdie putts that I was able to make. And the final day a 71. Nothing to special here just finishing off a great week of golf and moving on to the second round of q school! They haven't yet released the field lists for second stage so I don't know for sure where I will be going but most likely I will be in Biloxi, MS. Looking forward to heading back to second stage for the 6th time now! Can't believe I have been doing this for six years now but time sure does fly. I am looking forward to another opportunity and this is going to be my year I can feel it!! Thank you all for all your great support and encouragement! It is nice to see all your comments and messages, only helps me play better knowing you all are behind me!
