Harper- Win some local stuff first. Get a taste for competition before you jump into something like a golf tour. I "THINK" (means I'm not sure) that if you declare pro your cannot regain amateur status for 2 years.......... I may be WAY off but I think I remember hearing that somewhere.

Why "declare" anything?? Just go play some golf man. ADRIFTER maybe right about a handicap requirement to "declare" pro status. If he's not, I would laugh at someone who told me they were pro status and couldn't break 90.... or 80.... or.... 70...

I shoot 68-74 almost every time on a 73.9 rated 7200 yard course and I haven't "declared" pro status.... Just some food for thought. I think you are putting the buggy before the horse. Just an opinion. Good luck in whatever you choose.


PS- Don't get your feelings hurt about having views and no responses. I posted a thread honoring an American Navy Seal hero that earned the congressional medal of honor the other day for sacrificing his life for his men... A lot of views... One comment.
