There are a few things I wish I would have tried out to see if I could do it in the young days.
1st was BMX as a Pro. I took bike racing all the way to the pro level racing a few pro open races in the south east. Highlight was being ahead of some of the big names at half track in a national. They passed me with conditioning.
2nd was bowling Pro. Long story short I lost my Eligibility to play high school sports because I was bowling with the old men Friday night for money. I took it all the way to sponsorship but just up and quit. One of my team mates went Pro and made decent money although he never made TV with Pete Weber or any other pros of that Era.
Fishing took over and I was only decent at it. Never even won a Monday night tournament on Allatoona. I was the guy who had the big sack at the Moby tournament who had to have the ambulance ride. We hit a duck running 70 mph with 14 pounds in the well at 9am. I won a neck brace that day. The cards just never went my way with fishing. I enjoyed it more once I just fished for fun.
Now old memories are popping up, so I guess I am getting old.
Any of you have something you wish you would have went after.
