APRIL 13-19 TOUNAMENTS

On Monday April 14th, Jeff played in the Nationwide Tour Athens GA Qualifier shooting a 1 over 73. He said he has never hit the ball as good that he did, but his putter let him down. He did not make the cut, so he traveled back to Charlotte NC to play in his second Hooter's Tour North Carolina Series event. Although he still had a lot of 3 putts he made the cut and finished in 9th place. His 3 day 75-73-73 +5 consisted of 10 birdies, 9 bogies and 3 double. He will do a practice round in NC on Friday and leave on Saturday to get ready for the Hooter's Tour Pro Series Event in McCormick, SC on the 21st.

DISAPPOINTING FIRST HOOTER'S NORTH CAROLINA SERIES EVENT

After slapping it around Eagle Chase GC in NC and having an even first round 72 (9th place) with 3 birdies and 3 bogies, Jeff was not able to get things going and had a very disappointing 79 dropping him to 19 place, below the cut line. Jeff will use the extra day to work on his short game and have another practice round in order to get prepared for the Nationwide Tour Monday Qualifier in Athens, GA.

JEFF FINISHES HIS FIRST HOOTER'S PRO SERIES EVENT

A little dissapointed Jeff finished the Hooter's Inverray Classic T-57, 70-75-75-74. He carded 1-Eagle, 10 Birdies, 45 Pars,14 Bogies and 2 Double Bogies. He got 1 of the 10 Monday Qualifying spots out of a field of 71 and then went on to make the cut of 60 and ties from the field of 168 players. After 8 straight days of golf, Jeff tried again to Monday Qualify for the Orlando Hooter's Pro Series Event. With a few 3 putts and a 9 on the 16th hole, Jeff's 5 over 77 was to high a number. Jeff will play a local Moonlight Event and practice before leaving for North Carolina and a 53 day on the road tournament schedule.
