Texian Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 Lots of guys on here from Texas, and some of them probably understand that my MYGOLFSPY name is not misspelled. If you're not from Texas you may not have ever seen a person from here being called a Texian. It goes back to 1836 or so when Sam Houston was leading an outnumbered volunteer army that accomplished one of the great military upsets in history to win Texas independence. They called themselves Texians, so it's just my little nod to history. Golfspy_CG2 and ole gray 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STUDque Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Mine for this site is an attempt at being a grown up. My normal username is enSTUDque or STUDque for short. When I was a freshmen in college, I thought I was nice as the rules didn't apply to me. As a result, the upperclassmen would Jones on me like "man your sh*t's nice, you must be a stud" over and over and over. Since I did indeed think my sh*t was nice, I stuck "stud" in my first name to get my username for AIM. The nickname stuck in real life (since it's easier to say than my first name) and still carries forward to this day.

yungkory Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Guys I used to work with would called me "young ___" (whatever nickname they wanted to give me for the week) and the other half is my actual name. I've been given a baby face, it's a gift and a curse - I'm 31 and I get carded at Rated R movies, and when I'm in Vegas and standing in the casino the security always asks where my parents are.

TWShoot67 Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 I picked the shoot67 because its my lowest score ever in golf for 18 holes. It was over 20 years ago and I doubt I'd ever score that low again but one can aspire too. The TW are my initials so thats where I came up with the twshoot67 name. Now that I've been on almost every golf forum known to exist I have just kept it going for the last say 19/20 years. I can't believe I've been on this internet thing for almost 20 years, wow!

TR1PTIK Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 I'll keep this simple since I'm about to leave work for the weekend. My screen name is derived from my favorite album Triptych by my favorite band Demon Hunter. I started using TR1PTIK as a gamer tag on Xbox back in the day because triptych was taken. Maybe kinda lame, but I personally love it!
