[vwhisker]

• My name is Vincent, from Denver, CO. 
• My bag consists of the following:
  • Driver: Taylormade Aeroburner 
  • 3 Wood: Callaway XR 
  • 3 Hybrid: Callaway XR 
  • Irons 4-PW: Taylormade Speedbladez 
  • Wedges: Callaway X Series 56 Degree, Callaway Mack Daddy 2 50 Degree
  • Putter: Nike Ignite 004 

• Current Handicap: 13
• My goals for the 2018 Season are to consistently score under 90, with my best round finally (hopefully) cracking 80. As with any golfer that is at a 13 handicap, continuously focusing on consistency and improving putting would work wonders. I could also probably knock off a few strokes by not allowing the little voice in my head to convince me to "Go for it". I believe that the opportunity to use a set specifically fit for me, while gathering data on my game, will help me improve my game drastically and achieve my 2018 goals with a bit of hard work. 

Thank you to Cobra and to Golf Spy for the consideration!

    Putter-Odyssey 2 Ball Blade 

 

3. Handicap- 9

 

4. Goals- My number 1 goal is to focus on enjoying the game and not let a poor score change my mood. To help accomplish this I am working on eliminating the cupping of my lead wrist and to lock out my lead leg. Both of these things should help me become more consistent and shoot lower scores. My second goal is to make the cut and play in the second weekend of my city's amateur golf tournament in August.

 

I am a school teacher that recently moved to a new home in a golf community. My summer off will allow me to put in the work required for the Cobra Connect Challenge II and my teaching experience will help me in writing detailed reviews and discussions. Living in the golf community is going to allow me more range and playing time to focus on this challenge. I am confident that you will not be disappointed if I am chosen as one of the 5 to receive this fantastic opportunity.

Former PGA apprentice who is proving much happier playing amateur golf (no Tecate Tour for me). Goals are to qualify for the NJSGA Amateur, Mid-Am, and Public Links Championship, as well as the NYC Amateur. Think it will be a fun experiment to track all of that real tournament data in this way.
