[Arok]

[Bruce Brakel]

November ratings are up.  I'm unchanged. 

[pickax]

I'm up six. I also dropped a round only 60 points lower than my rating. Looks like I'm also getting more consistent.

[danav]

I can no longer play am events (again)

[duain]

i went up 19 points from 872 to 891. i'm going to probably play intermediate next year. i had alot of rounds over 900 at the end of this season, so next season im gonna make every round over 900.

[El Mexicano]

Missed my goal of 970 for the year by 1 damn point....969. It was gratifying to finally break away from the 950 realm in which I resided for more than 2 years. I improved by 21 points this year. Next year's goal is 985!

[Dan Michler]

I'm up 2 points to 922.  I believe my stated goal for the year was merely to improve from 926.  Apparently that didn't work, so my goal for next year is to reach 1014.  My plan for this is simple.  Shoot very few rounds rated less than 1000 and sprinkle in some 1030-1050 action.

Seriously though, I didn't play enough this year if I want to get better.  In 2009 I want to play atleast 5 days every week from April-October, even if its only shooting 1 round at Fairfield.  A consistent regiment of playing daily is something that probably helped me 3-4 years ago, but has been missing the last 2 years.  My main problem is getting a little 'off' on my drives at some point during rounds, and then rarely being able to recover from this for the remainder of the round.

Hopefully in November of 2009 I'll look back and realized I did what I said I would do and it helped me to improve my game and my tournament results.  I think getting to a player rating of 935 next year would be satisfactory.  I've emailed this goal to myself to reinforce it come Spring of '09.

[tacimala]

After the last rating update my goal was to finally break the 950 mark for the first time, and I went up 5 points to 953, so I'm pretty pleased with that. Now my next goal is to remember how to putt and see about improving that even more!

[skipache]

down one , tied with taylor

It seems that you have played just inconsistent enough to continue as a bagger in Intermediate.  I am sure that with your plans for 2009 you will shortly return to being a donor in Advanced and that you will soon stop donating there.  

I went up 1 hole point thanks to a lousy day at Fairfield.  I want to leave all sub 800 rounds in the rear view mirror and had just about done that.  I will improve from gawdawful to mediocre. My realistic goal is to be a Novice bagger in 2009 and a Rec. donor in 2010.  We willl see how that goes. I will have to return to my Sensei for further training.  Now that he is only 4 ponts from 1000 he is dubunking the theory that those who can't do teach.

[stpitner]

Wish the homie ratings could have made it in... results are posted, official ratings are not.  Those two rounds - while not super (and I felt like I played terrible too) - might have kept me from dropping a point to 825.  oh well.

2009 goal: keep on having fun.

[discpro99]

Up 7 again to my highest rating to date of 953. Missed my goal of 960 for the end of the year.

[tacimala]

Justin we are going to battle for the top 953 spot!

Scott - those ratings look like they need work from Homies still. Right now my 2 down on silver is rated lower than my 2 down on blue. My guess is that they haven't broken apart the groups by course yet.

Those ratings look fine to me. I hope they stick cuz that will be my first 1000 rated round. Probably wont thou.

[stpitner]

bah, I didn't even think about that when looking at those Taylor.  crud.  Well there goes my semi-decently rated rounds.  I hope that my rated rounds don't drop too much!

[OvEr HaNd AsSaSiN]

Went up 10 points this update and 31 points on the year to 952..  My goal for next year is to just keep moving up.. I have seen alot of players get good and then hit a wall.. dont want that to happen to me.

[Bruce Brakel]

Everybody is going to hit a wall somewhere.  I think Chuck Kennedy observed today that Ken Climo got to 1039 and just kind of stalled out there!
