Stolhand played on full-time Australian circuit during the late 1960s and early 1970s, recording a number of high finishes but failed to win.

[7] Two months later, in August 1949, Stolhand earned entry into the Oklahoma Invitational Sub-Junior Golf Tournament.

[11] In the spring of 1952, Stolhand started receiving attention for his play on the Ponca City High School's golf team.

[22] Late in the 1952 school year, it was announced that Stolhand's family was moving to Lake Charles, Louisiana.

In early July, he was committed to play the Lakeside Invitational Golf Tournament, the event he won two years previous.

Playing against a number of past and future PGA Tour players like Labron Harris and Jacky Cupit, Stolhand's team won the event.

In November, he teamed up with Dean Adkisson, the head pro at Clapp, for the Wichita Pro-Assistant Golf Tournament.

Stolhand and Adkisson won three of their four matches in extra holes, including the final, to win the event.

Stolhand opened with rounds of 67 and 69 to put him in solo second, two back of leader Jay Hebert, a recent PGA Tour winner.

[45] At the event, Stolhand also won the Louisiana Professional Golf Organization's championship, played concurrently, by seven strokes over Ivan Sicks.

[45][50][51] Stolhand occasionally played in notable tournaments across North America during this era but his results were erratic.

In May, he played the Hawaii Public Links Four-ball Medal Golf Tournament at his home course, Ala Wai.

[65] Later in the month Stolhand tied for the win at another fourball tournament, this time at International Golf and Country Club with Charles Veregee.

In the first round, Stolhand shot an even-par 72 to position himself in fourth place and tie John DeMello the amateur lead.

[84] Stolhand continued to receive media attention for his performances in amateur golf tournaments for the remainder of the late 1960s, winning several.

In December 1966, Stolhand played the International Goodwill Golf Tournament at his home course, Ala Wai.

[87] Stolhand failed to break par the next two rounds but closed with a 68 (−4) to finish solo second and win the amateur division easily.

[93] Playing against "brisk trade winds," Stolhand's even-par second round was enough to move into the solo lead.

[101] In June, he played the Barber's Point Open again, an event where he earned low amateur honors the previous two years.

[102] Stolhand opened with a 70 (−2) to take a one shot lead over professional Larry Ordonio and amateur Allan Yamamoto.

He made "a late charge," including a birdie at the last hole, but it was not enough as Yamamoto, the only player to match par during the windy day, defeated him by two.

"[114] Stolhand first received media attention for his play on the New Zealand Golf Circuit in early December at the Caltex Tournament.

Despite the poor finish Stolhand beat a number of notable players, including Walter Godfrey, David Graham, and Vic Bennetts.

Stolhand made the cut but closed with rounds of 77 and 81 to finish in second to last place among those who earned rights to play the weekend.

However, he played every sequence of the hole poorly, hitting his drive in the rough, his approach short, and his chip "too firm."

[149][150] In 1971, Stolhand again recorded a number of top performances during the first half of the year at minor tournaments in the Australasian region.

[151] In May, he finished joint runner-up at the South Australian PGA Championship with Barry Coxon and Bill Dunk, nine behind champion Vic Bennetts.

At the West End Tournament, which he had nearly won the previous two years, Stolhand shot over-par during the first three rounds and was never in contention.

In 1986, Stolhand opened with a 68 (−3) at the event to put him two behind leader, Peter Thomson, one ahead of third place holder Orville Moody.

As he was returning home from the pro-am he was involved in a car accident on Hume Highway at Breadalbane, New South Wales.
