In this YouTube short, the speaker advises parents and junior golfers on college recruiting, arguing that AJGA Rolex rankings are less useful for modeling a child's development compared to the Junior Golf Scoreboard. He emphasizes that high school golf has little impact on Division I recruiting, positioning the Scoreboard as a more relevant metric for assessing progress toward collegiate play.
It's one of the reasons why I don't talk about AJGA Rolex rankings quite as much. I worry about them from the perspective of getting into bigger tournaments, but from an overall modeling out where your child needs to be at, not as relevant as Junior Golf Scoreboard. So hopefully I've sold you guys on that enough. So a lot of times parents think, parents think it's just like, oh, we're playing high school golf. And I just want to like say it up front, high school golf is irrelevant when it comes to playing Division 1 golf. It does not matter. And so that's just, you know, really quick caveat.
