Re: hypothetical golf career
[ QUOTE ]
Lets say there's a guy in his early 20s. He averages 100-110. He can support himself financially for a few years. His goal is to become a head pro at a course.
Is this realistic? Also what's his best strategy for succeeding.

How long has this guy been playing for? Best strategy imo would be to find a good pro to work with, then hit balls until your hands bleed. Get on the putting green for a couple hours a day and work on all areas of your shortgame.
I really believe that practice can only take you so far though, some people just don't have the ability. All of us will hit a golf platuea, whether it's 80 or 72 and it becomes almost impossible to drop any more shots consistently. So I guess the only way to know if you're good enough is to give it your all and see where that leads.
