Friday July 21, 2023 - Colorado Open

 Just when you thought things couldn't get much better on this trip, we went to the restaurant at the golf course on Wednesday afternoon and our new friend Barry was there as usual.   He was chatting with one of the pro golfers (named Jackson Foth) who's in the tournament and he introduced us.   Jackson is from Kansas and is super nice, but he was a little bummed that he just got into town and didn't have enough time to play a practice round.

Barry asked him, "What about your caddie, is he at least familiar with the course?"

Jackson replied, "Unfortunately, I don't have a caddie."

Barry then said, "You should get Trevor here to be your caddie - he's played the course every day for the last six weeks - he knows it inside and out..."

Jackson asked, "Trevor, what do you shoot when you play this course?"

Trevor replied, "I shot a 79, then an 80 on Tuesday."

Jackson said, "Well let's do this!"

Wednesday July 22, 2015, Oakville, Canada - Canadian Open

 Met Jim Furyk at the Pro Am during the Candian Open.   We wore our Wildcats shirts and he came over to talk to us.   Very exciting for both of us.

Well, practicing for just 45 minutes each morning just wasn't cutting it as the boy has struggled mightily with his game, firing in the high 80's his last few tournaments.   We did some schedule rearranging and asked the GM at Raven if there was anything Trevor could do in exchange for playing a few holes in the afternoon.   We met with Kevin Weber and the head golf instructor, Barry Hand and Trevor's new responsibilities are: Calibrating the yardage board each morning on the range to the correct distances to each hole Clearing off all of the range balls on the first hole Fixing as many ball marks on every green he plays What an amazing setup we have here.     Here he is hitting errant range balls from the #1 fairway back onto the range

Saturday November 12, 2022 - Firebirds Tournament

 Palo Verde Golf Course Playing in just his second ever Firebirds tournament, Trevor a great four hole stretch with three birdies, but finished double bogey/bogey to wind up +2.   Cat Dann won it all with a -1.   Cat's father and I talked for quite awhile after the tournament while the boys practiced.   He's quite a character.   I have a feeling that the boys will become fast friends...
