an inside look at the quest for a PGA Tour card

Cold but still kicking

It’s been some time since my last entry.  I have tried to post some mobile entries form my iPhone, but the app I’m using keeps losing the draft once its finished.

I’m still home in Ottawa working as hard as my situation will allow me.  I’m spending a lot of time in the gym, lots of time hitting balls indoors, working very hard with my sports psychologist Adam, and the latest addition to my regime has been yoga classes!  The yoga has been great at working my mind, body, and breathe; I’m absolutely loving it

All and all I’m in a great place right now.  In spite of the reality of being in cold Canada without status on any tour, I feel more confident and motivated to play golf than I ever have before.

I intend to leave for Florida mid February and give myself a month of on course preparation for Q School on March 16th.  I’m working towards this event much like I worked towards Q School in the fall of 2007.  I’m optimistic that I will be able to do the same thing I did in 2007.

Some side notes:


A book that has really gotten me going in the right direction is Malcolm Gladwell’s latest effort: “Outliers”.  I read it over the holidays and it is still sticking to my ribs late into January.  The book is all about how success is achieved and it has put a great fire under my butt to make great strides in 2009.  I highly recommend you check it out for yourself!

I’m now on twitter!  Twitter is a social networking website that is a constant update on what I’m doing day to day.  I have it linked on my website’s profile page, but you can also follow me along at twitter.com/andrewjensen to see what I’m up to all day long as I keep it current from my iPhone.  Think of it as mini blog’s I write all day long.
