July 28th, 2010
I'm currently in a week off in the Canadian Tour schedule. My last competitive round was the Monday qualifier for the Canadian Open at the Bond Head G.C. just north of Toronto. Bond Head was a very challenging course, playing over 7400 yards, with windy conditions and extreme greens made for a great qualifier. I felt comfortable and confident out there, I was hitting a lot of great shots and gave myself plenty of looks at birdie. I had a difficult time reading the greens and didn't capitalize on the opportunities. I ended up shooting 72 and 70 ended up getting into the Canadian Open.
Because I had the week off it gave me an opportunity to spend some time with my swing coach as well as my trainer, awesome people that I don't get a chance to spend a lot of time with. It was good to get a check up and make sure that all my fundamentals are solid, and everything is heading in the right directions.
There are 3 Canadian Tour Events left on the schedule, all close to home in Ontario. I'm really excited for the last stretch of the summer, and I feel like things are coming together nicely. I shot my career low 62 last week and that's some validation that my game is right there.
The Canadian Tour begins again the week of Aug 12
