Dan Tyminski moves up another chart

Golf DigestBluegrass fans have become accustomed to seeing Dan Tyminski’s name on the music charts since he formed his own band and released a solo CD, Wheels, earlier this year.

Dan’s friends know that he only plays music to support his golf habit, and the new rankings of musicians who play in Golf Digest shows him moving up on a chart close to his heart.

The November 2008 issue includes the magazine’s second ranking of the Top 100 in Music, and Dan has moved up to #9, up two places since the first rankings were published in 2006. Dan improved his handicap from 5.3 to 4.4 over the past two years.

According to Golf Digest

Handicaps are from August and were determined from the USGA’s Golf Handicap and Information Network, state associations, the musicians, publicists, friends and playing partners. Handicaps without decimal points are unofficial estimates.
