Career Highlights
2016: Tied for 24th out of 42 players overall, while also tied for 20th out of 38 in the Putterz Division...Finished at 20 over par for the third time in the last four years...Tied for the most fives at Wisconsin Adventure (2) and Par-King Red (2) while leading all players in fives at Aloha Falls (3)...In fact, led all players in total fives (9)...Tied for most triple bogeys at Wisconsin Adventure (2)...Extended his sixless streak to 320 holes--the 9th-longest such streak in MCMM history to that point-- before it ended at Wild West's 6th hole...Rebounded by tying for the low back 9 at Wild West (20).
2015: Tied for 20th out of 38 players, and for 13th out of 30 players in the Putterz Division...Tied for the most fives (2) and double bogeys (2) at Lighthouse...One of ten players with no worse than a double bogey on any hole all day, his first MCMM without a triple bogey...Recorded his second consecutive sixless tournament and fourth overall, extending his sixless streak to 297 holes...Had his lowest-ever total of pars (45), tying his highest bogey output (30).
2014: Finished 24th out of 39 overall, 18th out of 31 Putterz Division players...Recorded the first-ever hole-in-one on Aloha Falls' 13th hole in its nine appearances in the Mini Masters-- that covers 292 attempts, meaning an ace has now been scored on that hole in 0.34% of its Mini Masters plays, making it the third-unlikeliest hole-in-one of any hole that has had a Mini Masters hole-in-one. Through 2014, no hole without a hole-in-one had had as many MCMM attempts as Aloha Falls' 13th...Also scored a hole-in-one on Congo Falls' 6th hole, which is notable because in the two years it's appeared in the Mini Masters, he has the only two aces that hole has allowed-- that is the only instance of a player owning multiple aces on a hole that no other MCMM player has holed in one...Recorded the only hole-in-one on the Par-King Red wacky hole, #3...Tied for most 3s at Aloha Falls (11) and most 4s at Congo Rapids (5)...Was one of nine players not to record a six all day, extending his sixless streak to 189 holes, which after 2014, was tied for the 8th-longest active streak...One of six players to have no result worse than a bogey at Aloha Falls...Tied for the most birdies in the field at Par-King Red (5).
2013: Placed in the top ten a second straight year, finishing 8th out of 32 overall...Improved upon his 2012 Aloha Falls score by a stroke...Posted the low front 9 at Par-King Black (19) en route to taking the course title with a 40...Led the field in twos at Par-King Black (15)...Tied for most pars at Aloha Falls (13)...Tied for most double bogeys at Congo Falls (4).
2012: Came in 4th out of 33 in the Putterz Division and placed a personal-best 9th out of 38 overall for his first top-ten finish...Tied for the low front 9 (20) and low back 9 (19) at Lighthouse, knotting up with Dianne Cullen for the low round at the course (39) but losing the course trophy in a tiebreak...No matter, he simply took the Par-King Black title outright with the help of an ace on the roulette wheel to tally a total of 37...Tied for the low front 9 at the course (19) and improved upon his previous best at the course by 8 strokes...Tied for low back 9 at Par-King Red (18)...Was one of only 9 players to record a new career-low total score relative to par...Tied for most fours at Sisolak's West (4)...Led the field in twos at Lighthouse (15) while tying for the fewest threes (3)...One of only five players with a hole-in-one at Aloha Falls, as he was just the 2nd player in MCMM history to ace the 2nd hole there...One of just four players with no fours at Par-King Black...Recorded one of the three sixes by the field at Sisolak's West...His twelve birdies at Lighthouse led the field and tied the MCMM record for most birdies in a round at Lighthouse or any course...Established new career highs in total twos (62) and birdies (31) while setting new career lows in total eagles (1) and bogeys (20).
2011: Earned the Most Improved trophy at Lighthouse by carding a 44, eleven strokes better than his previous best score at the layout...Posted his second straight sixless tourney to extend his sixless streak to 239 holes...Shaved 15 strokes off his 2010 score to place 4th in the overall Most Improved race...Was one of three players with three aces in the first round at Sisolak's West...Tied for the most 3s in Sisolak's West round 1 (8) and at Par-King Black (9), while leading the category outright at Par-King Red (11)...Perhaps not surprisingly, led the field in total threes as well (47).
2010: Garnered his first under-par round in the MCMM with a 40 on Par-King Red, good for fifth place on that course...Earned his first sixless tournament...Shaved 10 strokes off his 2009 score to finish 5th in the Most Improved race...Led the field in 3s at Action Territory (10) and tied for most 3s in the first round at Sisolak's West (8)...Tied for most 5s (4) and fewest 2s (4) at Lighthouse...Led the field in total threes (42)...Posted the most bogeys in the second round at Sisolak's West (7).
2009: Recorded his first MCMM hole-in-one on Sisolak's West's 18th hole...Recorded his first conventional ace at Rocky's Fun House Waukegan's 11th hole, the only one on that hole in MCMM history...Finished with six aces, just one shy of tying for the tourney high...Placed 2nd among the tournament's 9 rookies...Tallied 2 of the field's 8 eagles at Par-King Black to lead all players and tie the MCMM record.
