What do you do to make it on the PGA Tour?
Practice hitting balls 6 days a week. About 7 hrs of ball hitting. Every day spend 3-4 hrs on short game. 2-3 hrs per day on putting. Work on your mental when you go home and try to keep your mind as clear as possible when playing tournaments. Work out at least 4 days a week, stretch 30 minutes before every workout. Do cardio workouts 3 days a week and avoid injuries at all cost. Get a good swing coach, preferrably who has some PGA tour experience and knows what it takes to make it. THis costs money put try at least 1 lesson a week. Play 9 holes almost everyday. and maybe test your game one day a week playing 18 holes. Test your endurance every so often by playing 36 in a day and keeping score. Try to grind, that's the name of the game in golf. I suggest getting a job at a golf course so you can afford all this. Don't even think about going to Q school or any other pro tour-type things if you can't shoot 67 any way of the week on a course you've never seen.
