    This month, I decided to really grind ready go's. I finally finished them tonight I broke $1k (wgt will say $998.xx before they reset counter but today is still not over).

    Based on me leading/being top 3 on the ready go leaderboard for the month, I must have recieved 200 friend requests. Many of them during putting, so all my misses are blamed on that :P. Since I have declined all, I figured I should at least show you the breakdown of my effort.

    Ready-Go Entry   (40,400)
    BP 18        7,513
    BP Back     10,450
    BP Front        7,161
    Kia 18     14,766
    Kia Back     10,026
    Kia Front     10,207
    St A 18     12,988
    St A Back     11,757
    St A Front     14,255
    Grand Total     58,823

    Mind you, bp18 takes FOREVER to fill up, so much harder to even it out. After the fees of 40,400 I won 58,823 credits this month. The other is the breakdown of the courses/how much I won.

    Here is the breakdown: I entered 404 ready go's this month (I just finished 5 more but since they will only close out tomorow, I am not counting them). That's on average 13 ready go's per day and usually meant me waking up 7am, registering, going back to bed, playingh all day, and then playing another set at night 'til 3am :).

    Assuming I played 13 a day, thats at least 3 x 18 holes and say 10 9 holes...25-30 min for 18 holes, 15 min for 9 holes = between 4-5 hours a day. x 3 days = 150-200 hours a month. $588/200-150 = $3-4 an hour. Hell, I can make more at mickey d's!

    I won 52/404 I entered.

    I would like to thank price and yoban who really made me work my ass off to catch them/stay ahead of them. My bows to you.

    Thanks all :)

    P.S I use Raptures, so BP is much harder for me due to at least 5-6 holes where any other premium irons have much better chance to get closer.

    You only get 15 cents on the dollar ($250 gift cert for $1,600-worth of credits) if you buy stuff out of the Elite Collection, so it's actually more like 50 cents an hour.  ;(

    That's a ton of rounds, though... takes lots of dedication... pretty amazing, tbh... lol.  I'm struggling to do 5-7 RG's a day.

    Exactly!!!! Charle I get your good at Kia. but so is every good player here. If your that good at Kia. the other courses really are not that hard with a little hard work. Branch out brother before you diss some really good players here. I know you mean well, but you come off a little strong. JB     Icon your one sic puppy playin all those ready goes, well done though : )

    8 1/2 days of play time is ridiculous... but very very impressive. Hey Icon, how close are you to the $500 dollar gift card?

    Hmm. You "only" have to play like this for 100 years, and you get that sweet car.

    For for it! :D

    (70,000,000 / 58,800 = 1190 / 12 = ~100)
