How old are you and what's your occupation?
I am 32 years old and I am Assistant Technical Support Manager for SkyGolf in the UK. I very much enjoy working for SkyGolf.

When did you start playing golf and what's your handicap?
I started around 6 years ago - my handicap is 22 at the moment, but hoping to bring that down a lot next Summer.

How often do you play?
I try and play at least once a week in the Golf Season. It's a bit more difficult at the moment with the poor weather and shorter days unfortunately.

Tell me about a great shot you've made.
Hitting a 6 iron on the downhill par 3 fourth at Studley Wood Golf Club to within 5 feet for a birdie putt would have to be up there. That felt pretty sweet :-)

Tell me about a time your SkyCaddie has helped you save a stroke.
It always helps me identify hidden hazards on the course, such as unseen water hazards, so there is not one specific time - it always comes in handy the SG5 :-)

What is your best golf memory?
That would have to be playing in the Algarve in Portugal whilst I was out there for the 2004 European Soccer Championships. That was awesome - great weather, great courses, soccer to watch and good beer. What more do you want?

What is your "home" course?
That would be Studley Wood Golf Club just outside Oxford.

What ball do you play?
I use a Titleist Pro V1

Clubs?
Wilson DCG Irons and Wilsom Harmonized Putter and an NCG Golf Controller Driver with a 460CC head. It's really good...

Favorite pro?
I've always liked the more colourful characters like John Daly and Ian Poulter, and from back in the day Payne Stewart (RIP).

Favorite course you've played?
AA Golf Course in Saint Omer was pretty special.

Dream course you've yet to play?
Pebble Beach I guess. I have visited the Clubhouse and stood on the First Tee!! Just have to save for the 475 Bucks Green Fee now :-)

Best round ever- and what course?
Shooting a 91 at Studley earlier in the season.

What is one aspect of your golf game you would like to improve on in the next year?
Probably my short irons from the fairway, and I need to practice more with my hybrid/fairway saver.

Tell me a story.
Everyone should try golf out if they can. Contrary to popular belief it's not and old man's sport and there is a lot of fun to be had on the course. Yes, it can be very frustrating, but you can't beat the feeling when you hit an awesome shot....


Thanks!
