A rigorous test of golf skills in tournament conditions, Q School identifies players who have the physical and mental abilities to compete at the highest levels of professional golf.
You'll be competing against other aspiring professionals and, if you advance, the field will be increasingly populated by veteran Tour professionals who've lost play privileges and must attend and succeed at Q School to reclaim those rights. Make sure your game is refined enough to complete at a high level. If you're only occasionally breaking par, your chances of making it as a finalist in Q School are remote at best. Practice incessantly leading up to Q School qualifying and make sure you're in peak physical condition.
Each of the qualifying stages are multiple day tournaments, which are supreme tests of physical and mental endurance under intense pressure. Each stage offers play against better players. For instance, PGA Tour players who rank from to on the money list are exempted to the final round, as are Nationwide players who finish from 26th to 40th on the Nationwide Tour money list.
Determine if you have the monetary resources and whether you want to make the financial commitment to compete in Q School. You might be wondering how your game stacks up against somebody like Kellen. Even if you hit a lot of balls, you probably have a day job. For five years, Kellen has been doing nothing but practice and play golf. Kellen has broken down every aspect of his swing and optimized it for maximum efficiency. He's hit thousands of balls and rolled thousands of putts, and that's just this summer.
Eavesdropping on one of their work sessions in this final lead-up to Q-school is much different than watching a run-of-the-mill fix-my-slice lesson at the range down the street. Jacobs and Kellen are concerned with very small differences in the movement of Kellen's hips in the downswing--the difference between perfectly puring shots and hitting them slightly off the toe in a way that is almost invisible to the casual watcher.
Jacobs doesn't say much at this point. He's there to help Kellen connect accurate feedback to the shots he's hitting, so that Kellen can essentially coach himself during a tournament by recognizing negative swing patterns very quickly.
That's an important skill when you're on your own at a tournament and a run of three or four bad holes can mean you're going home and trying again next year. The work is part of a comprehensive plan for Kellen's season that centered more on practicing and improving his skills than competing in mini-tour events.
I came to Mike so I could learn what was really happening with my swing, and to own it. As Q-school approaches, Kellen has switched from hard-core swing instruction to working on shaping different full and short game shots, and sharpening his competitive instincts. But it has to be something.
