-
- Tomorrow kicks off
the 2014 Points Championship and statistically
speaking? I will not be able to sweep the events
again. No, I will be beat - and I put this video
together to give you at home an idea of who to look
for in the future events to dethrone yours
truly...
-
-
- ...and it could
easily be someone not even on that list. I'm still
hitting up real golfing boards to attract
newcomers and eventually every event will indeed be a
coin-flip. And throwing even more statistics at ya,
tomorrow? Is the best chance to win a major because
it's only 9 holes. During Labor Day I was behind
at 9, 18 and didn't take the lead until hole 27. And
Match-play events? Having to win 3 separate 9-hole
rounds to win? I will be beat. The competition
just keeps getting better. In fact, to prove that
anyone can come in and with a tiny bit of practice
score well? Check out what the Kontras boys did
today...
-

-
- Wow. If we do that
tomorrow, we're ALL in. And I know I'm not
proving my point very well by being at the top of
THAT, but the point is - my dad came in and shot a
(-6) with only a few rounds of practice. I've only
shot that in competition twice in over 30 rounds of
golf. It can be done, I can be beat... however that
(-7) has yet another heartbreaking story attached.
Check out my stat line:
-

-
- I was at (-7)
after 7. I had two freaking holes to get a birdie
and even set-up 8 perfectly to do it... couldn't pull
it out. Ugggggggggggggh.
-
- But my pops! Wow!
One stroke off the course record for a personal
best!??! That's awesome. If he puts his mind to it? He
will qualify tomorrow. That's so exciting I can
barely stand it.
-
- Now,
unfortunately, I have to address the Vice.com
thing. I freaking mention it in the last GolfKon
video at Halloween - I built it up and I have to
provide some explanation. I could go into the
fact that he acted unprofessionally while at
the event (one we held up ending for over an hour for
him to participate in and then never showed until
qualifying was over) - but those specifics mean
nothing. His excuse for not writing the piece is as
follows:
-
- "Our camera
going dead was a huge problem and we weren't very
happy with the pictures we had so that also slowed
things down a bit. Plus, the video you made was 20
minutes long and gave every detail about the project,
so truthfully, I'm struggling writing it because I'm
not sure what I could add to it."
-
- Ahem.
-
- I mean I
still can't actually believe he wrote that. Yes
because I produce a video for every event, he can't
write the piece. Gotcha. So I'm the guy that did my
job -
YOU MUST BE THE OTHER GUY.
<rolling eyes> It kills me because I had radio
interviews lined up for when that piece hit, and now
it's back to square one. If only I hadn't been so
thorough with my explanation of the
tournament...
-
- WHICH HE COMPLETELY MISSED ANYWAY
- BECAUSE HE NEVER SHOWED UP
- UNTIL WE WERE HAVING THE FINALS.
- FAAAAAAAAAACK.
-
- Christ it's like
being back in showbiz without the... well, no it's
like dealing with Hollywood.
-
- So we move on. We
will give money to charities this year even if
I have to write the check myself. I will not
make GolfKon a charity for shitty tax write-off
purposes, I know I can get businesses to
sponsor holes and give that to charity... it will all
come together. Keep on keepin' on...
-
- Alright, glad I
never have to talk about that shit again. 12
HOURS LEFT!!! WAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
