My top 10 reason Adam Scott should give me a chance!

I understand that some of the people out there might think that Adam would be crazy to hire a guy with no real professional caddie experience, but I believe my background in my life has set me up to be the perfect person for the job. I know that in the high stacks world of Professional Golf it’s important to have the right people. Adam here is my list…
1. I love golf with all my heart, I love the green grass, I love the early morning tee times, or the days when you make that last putt with the sun setting and the you can barely witness that birdie! When I drive past a random open field on a drive, I imagine how I would play it! When I see a flag off in the distance I try to figure out what club I would use!
2. I am an athlete, and with my military training carrying clubs and walking the course is not an issue, and even though I took shrapnel in my lower back and it always hurts I know I can march with my ruck sack for days upon days.
3. Golf saved my life, after returning from my military service I was lost and depressed and thought that I would never be the same person I was before I joined. Now I know that that was a good thing and it’s because I am a better person now, I know that if I was given the opportunity I would be able shine.
4. I am an educator. I am always learning and feel that I am a lifelong learner. Caddying is a skill and something that I know that if I was given the chance I could perform at a high standard.
5. I have an easy going personality, I have been in some insane situations and I ALWAYS keep my calm. I have dealt with enemy attacks, high stack golf tournaments, and everyday teach high school students who believe the world is coming to an end and these situations have given me the experience needed to stay cool in stressful situations.
6. Adam Scott and I share similar hobbies and feel that we would easily get a long and be friends, and a friend on the bag that can keep you calm is ideal for a caddie, I have always been a fan of Adam and have rooted for him since the first time I watched him become a Professional golfer the same year I headed to the Army!
7. As a high school golf coach my job is to basically be a caddie for about 20 golfers, to learn their game, to learn what they are capable of and when the pressure is high to learn how to keep each player calm and collective.
8. Adam Scott said that he credited Steve Williams with reading the right line that won him the Masters, well I have excellent vision and know that not only can I read the putt I could handle that situation!
9. Being a rookie Caddie would allow Adam to save some money and be able to pay me a small price compared to some high up caddies.
10. Last but not least, our society has witnessed some of the greatest sports stories in the history of sports and this would be a story right out of Hollywood. The #2 ranked golfer in the world hires a Wounded Veteran to caddie for him and after being on his bag and leading him to another Major, who would watch that movie!
