Jeff Hull / Nationwide Tour Qualifier Winner
 

Jeff Hull -- LBG Academy Senior Instructor and our own golfgnome -- today shot 69 (with a double!) and won the Nationwide Tour Qualifier for the South Georgia Classic.

The $600,000 event will be played April 12-15 at Kinderlou Forest Golf Club in Valdosta, Georgia.

Congratulations, Jeff...

Go get'em!

:salut:

Alright
 

I sure hope Jeff plays well in the tourney. Would be cool to see him get some airtime.

Go Jeff!
 

Way to go Jeff, Congratulations!!

Thanks Lynn! It is hard to believe that a flat left wrist also works for putting. Go figure!

I am very excited about this opportunity and I appreciate everyone's support.

Congratulations Jeff...this is truely exciting...great accomplishment.

I must ask if you are familiar with the course you will be playing and if you already have your strategy in place for the 1st round.

Jeffy! You ROCK dude! BRING MY PUTTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have played two tournaments there and like the layout. At 7750 yards I am hoping for dry conditions because the course does not play that long if it is dry.

My strategy for the first round is the same, fairways and greens. Oh yeah, and that putting stuff.

Great job, Jeff! Congrats!

Great going Jeff!! Well done!

Jeff,

Congratulations.......I'll be following and pulling for you.
7700 yards is manageable when you got compression on your side!

Sorting Through the Instructors Textbook.

B-Ray

ONLY 7700 yards? You'll eat that course Jeff!
Seriously ,I'll be following you every step .Well done and play well:clap:

Congrats... Will be watching...

Hope you go low...

Congratulations well done!

At 7700 yds I hope it is all down hill and hard as cement.

Great News! Good things to good people. We will all be cheering for you. And bragging about you later.

What a great place!!!
 

I am absolutely amazed with the support I have received on this site. I got involved with LBG because of everyone's POSITIVE approach to TGM and Lynn's desire to teach Homer's work. I stayed involved because of the friendships I developed on this site and at LBG Schools plus the knowlege that Lynn is very free to share. I now have another reason to help Lynn make this the best site ever: the support of everyone here.

Thanks again and I hope to make everyone proud.

Best of luck
 

Play well and I hope you have a great tournement.

:thumright :notworthy :dance: :dance: :thumleft:

PS
I really enjoyed the videos you did with Lynn a few months ago

Awwwwwww . . . . You're so CUTE too!

You tee it up in NC and I'll tote your sack for you man!

Joking aside . . . Jeff Hull is HIGH QUALITY people boys! You won't meet a better dude.

best of luck Jeff. :salut: :salut:

Great playing Jeff! :clap:

Frozen Ropes and a Hot Putter Jeff.:salut:

May the course (or should that be force?) be with you.

Great work Jeff! I'm sure a lot of guys on this forum aspire to simply "get better" and have more fun with this great game. But I also think there is a segment that aspire to do what Jeff is doing which is to elevate their game in high level tournament play. It's always great to see LBG members/contributors doing just that!

Good luck at the event!

congrats jeff

Jeff, quality will ALWAYS be appreciated.
What you shared as an AI , a PRO and a PLAYER, was as selfless as anyone can get when I saw you at Falcon's Fire. Go for it mate! No pressure. :occasion:

I'll be checking the scores on the net Jeff.

Play well.

Wow. Congrats Jeff

I will be rooting for you Jeff. Best of luck.

And remember.....'don't forget your wedges' -- then you can shoot another 69.

A Well-Balanced Diet
 

It is not always easy to maintain your game at such a high level, especially when you have other obligations...like making everyone else a better player. You have done an admirable job at both and deserve alot of credit. We are all pulling (or pushing) for you :salut: .

And just to put things into perspective, Jeff has already done a mighty job. Obviously it will be a tough assignment. Just getting there is an achievement in itself and anything extra is an absoluter bonus. Of course that won't keep us from hoping for miracles, but congrats already and things will only get better with time.

Fairway Friends
 

It looks like Jeff Hull will have a practice round playing partner at the South Georgia Classic.

I just got off the phone with John Riegger. With the Nationwide Tour idle during Masters week, he's down in Jacksonville, Florida, honing his game at Sawgrass for the upcoming tournament. Both Jeff and John will be arriving in Valdosta on Monday. They've never met, but the wheels are in motion for them to play a practice round together on Tuesday. :toothy1:

Should be a good week for the LBG TOUR TEAM!

:3gears:

Jeff
 

Good luck Jeff. If you win, you can take the place of that gentlemen standing next to me in my avatar.:laughing9

Stand By Your Man
 

Hey...No way, Rich. :confused1 I like that picture! :crybaby:

Check out the starting lineup at http://www.pgatour.com/tournaments/h092/tee-times.html.

Play well everybody! :salut:

Not surprised
 

Jeff - we met last weekend in Lynn's 'media room.' I was there, you on the 'big screen' TV. You were striping the ball pretty good!

Great job and good luck!!!:)

Off to a great start, birdie at the first!

Birdiegnome!
 

Starting on the back nine, Jeff Hull, our own golfgnome, roared out of the gates with birdies at the 10th, 11th and 13th. Through his first seven holes, he is -3 and T4. :notworthy

:toothy1:

Go Jeff!

:3gears:

Long Walk At Kinderlou
 

Kinderlou Forest Golf Club, site of the South Georgia Classic, is "ridiculously long." Jeff told me yesterday that he was tired of having to hit his hybrid into the green on hole after hole.

Here's a note from the TOUR's website:

LONGEST COURSE IN PGA TOUR HISTORY -- At 7,781 yards, the par-72 Kinderlou Forest GC will be the longest course to ever host a PGA TOUR-sanctioned event. It was designed by Davis Love III and opened in 2004. The longest course played in a Nationwide Tour event to date is the 7,702-yard Whistle Bear Golf Club (par 72), site of the 2005 Canadian PGA Championship, won by Jon Mills. The longest course to host a PGA TOUR event is the par-72 Castle Pines Golf Club in Colorado which played 7,619 yards for the International in 2004-2006.

Jeff -3 after 9, John Riegger -2 after 16 holes... good stuff so far!

Jay not started yet...

Some big names in that field!! Long way to go... all up to computer now... good luck!

I'm HOT for Jeff Hull -3 through 12!!!! A big ole Ric Flair WOOOOOOOOOO!!!

-4 through 13 . . . WHO'S YOUR DADDY!!!!!! I BET THEY ARE THROWIN' BRA'S ON THE GREENS!!!!

GO JEFFY!!! GO JEFFY!!!
