Last week when I made my fantasy golf picks, I had mentioned I wanted to track my bankroll during the season and see what I win or lose during the 2015-2016 PGA Tour season. I started with a $250 bankroll and will not spend more then 10% of my bankroll each week on lineups. My initial plans call for 1-2 different lineups spread through several different leagues. I'm still rolling with that plan as of now but could make changes to it later depending on how my averages are doing. At the … [Read more...]
Frys.com Open Draft Kings Fantasy Golf Picks
Alright folks, it's time to play some golf. And win some money on Draft Kings. The Frys.com Open tees it up in Napa on Thursday for the start of the 2015-2016 PGA Tour season. This season I am taking a more calculated approach to my Draft Kings fantasy golf picks. I have been working on some spreadsheets to track week-to-week player performance along with past performances at each golf course on the PGA Tour schedule. I will be looking to make some money this year with my Draft Kings … [Read more...]
Fantasy Golf Picks and Tournament Preview: RBC Heritage
I got a choice to make this week. Do I dare take Jordan Spieth in my fantasy golf picks this week at the RBC Heritage coming off a Masters victory and a media whirlwind tour over the last two days? Will he be ready to go come Thursday or will he be hungover from all the interviews he's done since winning The Masters last Sunday. The Course Harbour Town Golf Links is a rather short course for PGA Tour standards. Stretching to 7,101 yards, this par-71 course requires precise golf shots. Jack … [Read more...]
Front9Back9 Fantasy Golf Picks: The Masters Edition
Some call Augusta National Golf Club the holy grail of golf. Tiger Woods said in his press conference that this tournament means so much to him that he plans on playing in the par-3 contest on Wednesday, something he hasn't done in 10+ years. There's not much more I can say to set this golf tournament up. My fantasy golf picks this week will be made via Draft Kings. They are offering a chance at a $1 million grand prize to the person who picks the perfect lineup this week and comes out on … [Read more...]
Front9Back9 Fantasy Golf Picks: Shell Houston Open
It's the final tuneup before the year's first major and there's some big names showing up at Golf Club of Houston this year to get ready for The Masters. This is the final tournament to get an automatic bid into The Masters and those guys not in will be certainly letting it all hang out. Jimmy Walker withdrew today and while I don't think it's a very good look, at least he did it two days prior to the tournament to give enough time for an alternate to get ready. Coming off the win at the … [Read more...]
Front9Back9 Fantasy Golf Picks: Valero Texas Open
The PGA Tour is in my hometown this week for he Valero Texas Open and I am ready to get out there and volunteer for my fourth year in a row. John Peterson tweeted out earlier today that TPC San Antonio is in the best shape out of any course they've played all year on Tour. That says A LOT after playing the likes of Pebble Beach, Riviera and Torrey Pines earlier this year. With the tournament in town I am going to do something CRAZY with my fantasy golf picks this week! I am going to … [Read more...]
Front9Back9 Fantasy Golf Picks: WGC Cadillac Championship
The PGA Tour is at Trump National Doral this week for the WGC Cadillac Championship and once again I am making my fantasy golf picks on PGATour.com for the week. I've pretty much sucked it up for the entire year with my fantasy picks and there's no chance of ever getting near the top. This week I am going to do something different and pick all studs for my fantasy golf lineup. In the past, I've tried to pick a couple hot lesser known players who might pull out a victory and score me some … [Read more...]
Front9Back9 Fantasy Golf Picks: The Honda Classic
It's time to turn over a new leaf and start to take my fantasy golf picks to the next level. What does that mean? I really don't know. All I know is I need to pick the winner in every tournament for the rest of the year so I can make a move to the top. Last week at the Northern Trust Open, Sergio Garcia, Bill Haas, Robert Streb and Webb Simpson let me down. While Sergio had a decent week, (should've won) the others not so much. They all missed the cut. This week the PGA Tour jumps on … [Read more...]
Front9Back9 Fantasy Golf Picks: Northern Trust Open
Our fantasy golf picks take us to famed Riviera Country Club this week for the the Northern Trust Open. It's the last event of the "west coast swing" and next week the fellas will be teeing it up in Florida. I had a good set of horses for my fantasy picks last week at the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am. Problem is, my dumbass-self failed to make the selections on PGATour.com. Needless to say, I received a big ZERO points on the one week I made good picks. The Course Playing at a … [Read more...]
Front9Back9 Fantasy Golf Picks: AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am
We're back again this week for the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am and it's officially turned into a fight to not come in last place in fantasy golf. Let's just say my fantasy golf picks have been straight crap lately. Last week, at the Farmer's Insurance Open, my fantasy golf picks consisted of three players who didn't even make the cut. My fourth, Jimmy Walker, kind of fell flat on Sunday and couldn't get anything going. Long story short, I scored a total of 83 points. The … [Read more...]
Front9Back9 Fantasy Golf Picks: Farmers Insurance Open
Well I have not been faring all too well with my fantasy golf picks recently. Last week at the Waste Management Phoenix Open, I only managed to score 174 points, good enough to drop again in the league standings. With my team of Phil Mickelson, Jordan Spieth, Justin Thomas and Hunter Mahan they managed to really let me down, so I am back this week to seek redemption and score some fantasy golf points. The Course The famed Torrey Pines is the host of this week's Farmers Insurance Open. I … [Read more...]
Front9Back9 Fantasy Golf Picks: Waste Management Phoenix Open
Alright folks, my fantasy golf picks have really been sucking lately. It's time to get this going in the right direction. Last week, I ended up with 243 points, good enough to actually fall in the league standings to 523rd place. The leader has 3,778 total points, while I only have 1,389. What does this mean? Well frankly I need all four of my players to win.!.!.!.! Okay so all four can't win, but I do need to at least try and pick the winner each week going forward so I can pick up the … [Read more...]
Front9Back9 Fantasy Golf Picks: Humana Challenge
The Hawaii swing is in the books and my man Jimmy Walker picked me up some decent points with my fantasy golf picks at the Sony Open last week. The Tour is back on the mainland now in Southern California where Patrick Reed is defending this week and Phil Mickelson is slimmer and ready for a better 2015. This year I am on a mission to bash Phil Mickelson every time I get, because frankly he pissed me off last year with his habit of quitting in the middle of rounds. Phil Mickelson is no … [Read more...]
