What I can do for you:

Pretty much i made all of this for those who enjoy golf on a recreational and competitive level. I work with both players who have absolutely no golf experience and with those who are playing professionally. I trained with some of the best up and coming golfers from Southern California along with pros. Here are links to players that i used to practice with daily. Anthony kim -> http://www.pgatour.com/players/02/97/18/ and Henry Liaw http://www.arizonaalumnigolf.com/fame.asp. Anthony Kim has made 3.5 million so far in the few years he turned pro. Henry Liaw just went pro recently and is in Asia playing. Please PM me with any questions. I'm available to analyze videos of swings, diagnose problems/solutions, and to pass down tips that helped make the pros as successful as they are. For anybody who lives around the Los Angeles Area, please pm me if you are interested in free range balls. I have alota pull with American Golf courses, Griffith Park, Sepulveda, Hansen Dam and all of those courses.

Personal Achievements:

• Played AJGA and ranked in the top 200 in the US (age bracket)
• SCPGA-JGA Tournament of Champions 6 years straight
• Maintained a 0 to +3.6 Handicap for 4 years before I quit do to injuries
• Ranked top 50 in California
• Golf coach for 2 years was Mac O'Grady
• Went pro at 16
• Sponsored by Adidas/Taylor Made

What's this for?


Anyways, went 80 today, new HCP is 5.5

name plz..highly decorated amateur golfer would have been talked about in golfweek or golf digest..especially one turning pro at 16

i wasnt a highly decorated amateur. i never won a national tournament so i wasnt really publicized much. i've been brought up in a few articles and have been on the golf channel as they aired a tournament i was in. unfortunately due to all the practice i had to do, it took some tolls on my body. a few months after turning pro, i had a couple injuries that sidelined me for a while. i dislocated both my shoulders within a week of each other along with severe back pain. ever since those injuries, i couldnt complete a full round without being out for the next day.

Man I suck lol

Drove the ball 50 feet lol, then it hit a tree and bounced back behind me. At that moment I threw my cobras

LOOL ^^

Well, me and my father played a 2-generation foursome stableford tournament, ended 3rd

wut tour were u planning on playing on? and how did u get on? sponsor's exemptions? u can't just say ur turning pro then go play in tournaments
