That is where the good stuff is. And yes I have played some great golf, won tournaments, shot so many rounds in the 60's I cannot count them anymore, and I really did not even sniff a life on the tour. Just shows you the depth on the mini tours, pro tours, and in golf in general. There was a stretch where I could have made a run with some backing financially. But those days are long past. Thanks JD,

Every player who's ever even attained a full-time card on the PGA Tour is a world class player ball striker regardless of if they ever do anything else in their career...the defining items at that point are typically putting and/or minset. Zach Johnson will readily admit that his caddy Damon Green is a better ball striker than he is!! (Damon had his card in about 1993 or so) JMO.

It was very popular when I went to school in the early 90's as there were not many golf management programs out there. PGCC is the Professional Golfers Career College.
