Teachers Tournament

[EdZ]

Ted Forte would be rather dangerous too.

Indeed, he hits the ball on a string with tremendous compression. Doesn't miss anything by much, and is a solid putter. Given practice time, he'd be a great pick.

You mean...by that time, they won't be able to break 80 either?

Wanna bet on 80 fter I get this cast off my leg?

A TGM Tournament would be interesting also.

The field might include players like... Ben Doyle(Super Seniors Division), Brian Manzella, Yoda, Ron Gring, J.C. Anderson, Gerg Mc Hatton, Yoda's Luke, Steve Ferguson, George Kelnhofer(Seniors), Alex Sloan(Super Seniors), Phil Kelnhofer(Super Seniors), Clarence Moore( Super Seniors), Bobby Clampett, Steve Elkington, Mac O'Grady, Johnny Miller, Puggy Blackmon, Mike Holder, Larry Penley, Sally Little, and many others.

So why not make this happen?

If the goal is to get TGM out to the masses, seems like the lineup of players is the easy part.

TV coverage is the barrier. I'm certain there are enough CEO's out there to pull together the funds to do this in exchange for lessons and advertising.

A charity event perhaps, during the 'silly season' and I'd guess you can get some great names out to the:

Homer Kelley Memorial Tournament

[Vikram]

That would be the ultimate ode to Mr Kelly. Count me in if it happens ALWAYS!!!!!!

Vikram.

PS. Are all the persons listed above AI's of TGM??

Why not make it a ProAm to increase the field and show support, interest and results for TGM within the ametuer level?

[Vikram]

I am too far away to make it happen. The only AI in India. You guys can do it in USA and I will be there. Whenever it happens.
Planning a trip to the USA for my GSEM. Also plan to meet up with Yoda and Yodasluke. Are you listening in Yoda?. Love to get it all in while i am there. Its half way around the world. Doing the GSEB was a blast. The best money I have ever spent. Need to spend some more GOOD MONEY!!

Teaching after I got back to New Delhi in Feb 2005 after completing the GSEB was on a steady upward graph. Students just kept and keep coming in. Ametuers pros and kids. Hands full and flying high. Other pros keep asking- what on earth are you teaching man?????? Only if they knew.
Need a breather and no better way to breathe than to learn more of TGM.

I'd play anyone but Sally. I'd attack the throats of all involved, except for that sweet lady. I don't know if I could go for blood with Yoda, either...

Give me 8 more weeks and count me in.
