Nebraska State Open: Final Round, Final Group

Well today was somewhat unsuccessful yet succussful at the same time. Here's why. I feel like today was unsuccessful because I didn't win. I was 1 stroke back to start the day and felt like I had a great chance to go out and shoot 65. This I did not do but I posted a solid -3 68 for 3 straight rounds in the 60's which was a success. I ended up solo 4th place and cashed the biggest check of my pro career at $4,800. (which by the way is 400 more dollars than I made on the Dakotas this summer.) I played bogey free golf for 15 holes only carding 2 birdies which was frustrating considering I had a few lip outs and other good looks. If the putts fall my way I could have been standing on the 16th tee at -5 or -6 easily which would have put me very near the lead. I played with 2 very good players Peter Malnati and Nate Lashley. Nate has actually had full status on the nationwide tour and to go head to head with him was great. Nate and Peter each carded -5 66's. Peter ended up winning and Nate took 3rd. I could post for hours on this round but all said and done i'm pretty pleased. It was windy, I was in the final group, and I held my own with 2 very good players. Even though I didn't win, i'm proud of how I played. i made 1 bogey in my last 37 holes which was very good. I've got a little break until Cali where I'll play in their state open as well and if work permits hopefully a little mini tour work there as well. thanks for following this summer. glad I could finish with a bang.

Go low!!
