the name Jared Roan comes to mind. ive shot with him a few times since he is from this area and if i remember correctly he has only been playin for a few years. the guy is ridiculously good and getting better somehow. great guy too.
Ben Gaddis rated 1028 but last rated round in Aug 2006.When I first started playing there was a guy from SC rated >1000 that had only played one or two tournaments. Not sure if he quit playing because I have never seen him at a tournament. This would have been around 2006.
I started at 36...I'll keep you posted...LoL. I think starting later has an inherent disadvantage, distance-wise. Not only that, but I'd guess most 40+'s have more going on in life than an average 20-something, which would be a major obstacle as well.
I think asking about someones first open win would be more practical. imo
If you haven't reached 1000 by 5 years of constantly (3+ rounds a week) playing, training, practicing, conditioning, putting...etc...you're never gonna get there. Assuming you started at age 15-30.
I don't think anyone who is age 40+ would ever get to 1000, if they're starting from scratch.
IMO, of course.
said the old unathletic hacker. no offense
took me about 4 years of playing to reach 1000+ and 8 years to reach 1040+
