Made Cut, Poor Final Round

It was nice to finally make a cut but it was frustrating to finish as poorly as I did, 67/72/77. The first round I played very solid and finally started to make some putts. The second and third round I hit the ball pretty well and putted well at times but just wasn't sharp enough to go low. I feel good about my game and direction it is moving. I am still struggling to match my score with what I feel my abilities are. I am excited about this weekend as I am heading to Dallas to work with my short game instructor Pat O'Brien. Pat was able to get my short game in great form last fall so I am hopeful he can get my chipping back on track leading into q-school. I am going to need a win or second place finish in next weeks final summer event to qualify for the tour championship in Iowa. As long as I have a chance to qualify I going to be optimistic. I am playing well enough to win, I just need to put together a complete tournament next week. Thanks for checking in, I will be in touch soon.
