I believe at least from the east coast side there are still three applicants available with vids done to choose from..

I haven't met Dave (@NCGolfer) or Brian (@bkuehn1952) but have played with Jerry (@jsgolfer) many times now and know if chosen he would be an absolutely solid pick. A very seasoned competitive player not lacking either in distance, accuracy or touch. Judging from my round with him couple of weeks ago, seems to be in solid form this year already.

And off the top of my head, I think that we have 2: @Wanzo and @phillyk.  (We also have half a Hepp, but he's not that big of a guy, so half of him isn't going to cut it.)

Looking forward to the possibility of either of those guys joining our team; both look like very good choices to me. :beer:

And then I'm the floater out there on the purple team if I can just figure out where the next job will take me.

Half o'Hepp all you'll get until it stops raining every time I try to do my vlog. 

This winter we are approaching 50 inches since October so it has been a wet one. Hopefully soon.

Let's try to keep this topic (thread) about the applications.

You can quote and respond to posts in other topics pretty easily.

Attention Captain Mike, @mvmac

I will add the course vlog as soon as I can, but like Erik recommended I thought I would go ahead and post what I could to show that I'm really interested in being considered for the good guys' team (west).  I'll be sure to add the celebration when I record the 3 holes.  Go team west  

Shoe size: 10.5

shirt size: medium all brands

pant size: 30/30

p.s.  The camera adds 10 (or more) lbs in that slow mo swing  

Here's part 2, the vlog. Somehow I missed editing in my pitch shot on the last hole.  

 

@Wanzo your vids are gone. Are you still applying for NC? Hope so..

Well Gents, I'm going to have to take my hat out of the ring.  Unfortunately, I have a priority at work which is highly unlikely to be wrapped up by mid-Oct.  I wish you all the best in NC, and hope I will be able join you in 2019!

@mvmac I appreciate the consideration.

I feel bad about that. I accidentally deleted them from my YouTube when I was cleaning up some stuff and I'm trying to locate the originals to re-upload. That said, I would like to at least play enough times to get a legit hdcp before being considered. So I am working on playing some in the month of may. I've been traveling for work and weather has not cooperated when I've had time.

It is with great pride that I present my Newport Cup application video. Enjoy!

A few notes: you may want to look away around the 17 minute mark. I apologize in advance for you all seeing that :-P

I also left my golf shoes in my trunk when I filmed the vlog portion. Got to the first tee, realized I forgot them in my trunk, but didn't feel like going all the way back to grab them. I probably should have ...

Shoe size: 10.5

Shirt size: L (or M for anything Footjoy, oddly)

Pants size: 36x32.
