MY HISTORY OF PLAYING GOLF: I started playing golf when I was around 13, but stopped soon after once I realized that there was so much more to this game than just crushing it off the tee. I started up again because I found that no matter how many bad marriages or psycho girlfriends you have, there's nothing greater than chasing a little white ball all over the course and enjoying some space with friends for a few hours. This is how I manage to stay sane through it all, and I have all my fellow Thongers to thank for stopping me from climbing the steps of the U.T. tower and wreaking havoc on the world every week!

MY GREATEST MOMENT WHILE PLAYING GOLF: I picked up the drink girl at Cedar Creek once. Hitting the Chinese restaurant across from the Ft. Sam Golf Course was always fun, but my best moment playing golf was at Willow on number 18, I hit the straightest shot ever, ball wound up somehow behind the cup inches away, best shot I ever hit!

WHAT I LIKE ABOUT BEING AN IRON THONGER: I like the fact that no one takes themselves too seriously, and you can joke and laugh with someone new every week, I played in a group every week that only cared about skin money and that really put a strain on everyone. This is the greatest group I have ever played with, makes me look forward to Saturdays for even more than the golf.

THE BEST AND WORSE PARTS OF MY GOLF GAME: Best part of my game would have to be the tee shot, something about watching my ball fly over most of the others in the group gives me something to brag about ( that is until I shank my next shot into the woods or the water! ) The worst part of my game would have to be: everything that follows my tee shot, from the chili dips to the three putts, makes you wish you had taken up a different sport altogether, that is until that one shot, the one shot every round that everyone has, when the club strikes the ball perfectly, and for just a few minutes, you actually look like you know what you are doing, that is until the next shot. But that one shot brings us back every week, and so here I am in my own private golf hell, addicted to that one perfect shot every week!
