21 Golf ?s Of Christmas - SAQ - 'Where Will My Improvement Come From?'

Another wonderful Christmas Day is in the books at the Suggs household.

I hope and trust yours went well, with your family.

Most notable at ours: my little brother arrived from Bosra, Iraq for the last time.  He will no longer go over there anymore.  He's done.

The Army allowed him to get home to his wife late in the evening on Christmas Eve.  He then surprised his children on Christmas morning with his presence.

We have thanked God for his safety.

The SAQ above will help you in 2010.  Keep asking this one.

it will get you 'barking up the right tree' instead of - giving your mental, physical and financial effort to parts of your Golf Game that do not matter.

The GOLF...SUCCESS Round Statistics Chart I mentioned to you a few days ago willl become your springboard for this improvement.  It becomes especially relevant when...

College Freshmen Do Great In Golf Tryouts, Air Force Academy & Butler U.

Here is some great news from a couple of very proud GOLF...SUCCESS Parents about their sons at College Tryouts:

COLIN REENAN, St. Xavier '08 Ohio  H.S. Team State Champion   Butler University Golf Team

Joel.........I thought I would let you know how Colin did through the frst weekend of try outs. He did fantastic!!! There are 15 players trying out either to make the team or for the first tournament placement. He is in 3rd place, 3 strokes behind the only scholarship freshman and 2 strokes behind their #1 player. He shot 72 the first day at Eagle Creek and 75 yesterday at The Trophy Club (he said they played at 7300 yards). There were only 3 scores in the seventies yesterday so Colin played very well. He has 2 more rounds left, 18 at Prestwick Country Club(he played there last week) and the final round Sunday at Eagle Creek. Keep your fingers crossed and say a little prayer that he keeps it going.  Thanks for all of your work with Colin.

Joel.........Colin just called us and said he had made the team!! He went on to tell us that he not only made the team but he will be playing in the Nebraska Invitational on Sept. 14th and 15th. He shot 72, 75, 79, 72. They played twice on the Trophy Club Course in Avon, Ind. at 7300 yards. Thanks for all of your help and I will have Colin call you.

 

Wes Denny  Sycamore H.S. '09    Air Force Academy

 

Wes played 9 rounds of golf 9 over and with a 73 stroke average he finished 3rd in qualifying on his team!  So he hopes to be traveling with the team.

They play twice in New Mexico once at their own tournament, once in D.C. At ANDREWS AFB and then to Oahu, Hawaii (Turtle Bay Resort) in early November!

(Don't know their spring schedule yet other than they go to Pebble Beach over spring break......)
