OUR TEAM

Josh Johns

Handicap: 8
Z85, U85 Combo Set

Profile: Josh is a City Tour player in Cincinnati, and consistently attends National Nextgengolf events such as the City Championship.

Biggest Change: Since switching to Srixon, I definitely have the best looking clubs in my group. I've also convinced some jealous friends to switch as well. The U85 long irons allow me to be confident when staring down a long approach shot, and the Z85's allow me to dial in the accuracy with my shorter clubs. 

My favorite thing about 2018 was playing TPC Louisiana in the City Tour National Championships, because it allowed me to represent my city on a PGA level course!

Jake Weis

Handicap: 2.5
Z 785 , U 65, 785 Combo Set, RTX 4

Profile: Jake is the NCCGA Club President and player for the Missouri State University Club Golf Team

Biggest change: The biggest change I have experienced is in the wedge game. Consistency is something I look for in a golf club and nothing is more consistent than the RTX 4. Multiple times in each round I can trust the shot I want to play because I know how the ball is going to react off different types of lies. I would recommend these wedges to any player who wants to take their creativity and control to the next level.

Lastly, the new Z 785 drive is simply unreal. I've never hit a driver that has produces such a high rate of ball speed with such a soft fell at impact. I have picked up a consistent 10+ yards off the tee that has allowed me to reach more 5's and score more with my wedges on shorter par 4's.

Adam Marcoulier Srixon ambassador

Adam Marcoulier

Handicap: 2.9
Z Star XV, U65 (3 iron), Z765 (4-PW) RTX 4

Profile: Adam is the team captain for the 2019 City Tour Championship winning team, the Green Jackets, and is a cross handed golfer

Biggest Change: The biggest change I have experienced with the Cleveland/Srixon products is the consistency I enjoy throughout the bag, especially with the golf ball. I've been playing the ball exclusively for three years now as I haven't found another ball react better in all conditions, especially when its windy. Each and every round I can trust the shot I want to play because I know how my ball is going to react. Consistency is always something I'm looking for in any product regardless of the conditions. This club and ball combo delivers!

2020 AMBASSADOR OF THE YEAR

Bucky Willett

Handicap: 2.2

My experience as a brand ambassador for both Srixon and Cleveland Golf has been amazing. I was first introduced to the brands in college while playing in Nextgengolf and NCCGA events. After testing and playing their products throughout most of my college career, I was hooked. I constantly found myself promoting the brands to both my friends and my clients. During this time, I was presented the opportunity to apply to be a brand ambassador. Applying to be a brand ambassador was the best decision I have made in golf by far.

As an ambassador, it is your role to use this platform to promote the products, whether that be playing the equipment, creating content for the brands, or spreading the word at your local golf course and/or tournaments. In doing so, you get the chance to meet and work with some of the coolest people, you get to play some of the best equipment out there, and you get to help others which has been extremely rewarding.

My best advice for all new ambassadors would be to commit to learning and understanding what all Srixon and Cleveland Golf have to offer for both yourself and future players. Get creative with your content, network as much as you can, and HAVE FUN throughout the process.

Thank you, Srixon, and Cleveland golf, for allowing me this opportunity to share both my passion for golf and for helping others. This opportunity has been a game-changer in my life, and I hope that it will change yours too. I hope 2021 is filled with a lot of golf, amazing memories, and GIRS for everyone.
