Hi everyone -
We're back with another Team Titleist spotlight! This time around, we're featuring Andrew Katsanis, who attended our Golf Ball Fitting Event during our new 2017 Pro V1 and Pro V1x launch in January. Get to know Andrew in our Q&A below:
Hometown: Clermont, FL
Favorite golf ball model (and any personalization):
Titleist Pro V1, my number is 77, and along the side I do some advertising for business that says, Andrew Katsanis, Financial Advisor and my telephone number :)
How long have you been playing golf? Who introduced you to the game?
My dad bought my first set of golf clubs for me at the age of 6 - I have been playing for 36 years.
Can you share your Team Titleist golf ball fitting experience with us? What surprised you about your fitting?
I have been playing for years now the Pro V1x - but that day at the Team Titleist golf ball fitting, I became a fan of the Pro V1. I hit a real high ball and the new Pro V1 gave me the same distance and a lower ball flight. Also, when we played the 18 hole round, I used the same ball all day and the durability was outstanding.
What is your golf goal for 2017?
My golf goal for 2017 is to beat my low round of 66 - I think I have in the bag a low 60's round for this year.
Favorite golf memory?
Recently my good friend, Jason Sobel the Sr. Golf writer for ESPN, took me up to play TPC Sawgrass. The island hole that day was 142 to the pin and I hit the green on my first ball and lipped out for birdie. It was a great day playing and extremely hard course and the golf fellowship was outstanding.
Golf course on your bucket list:
St. Andrews
What's in your bag?
Titleist Driver 917 D2, Titleist 917 F2 3 and 5 Metal, Titleist Hybrid 816 H2 3 Iron, 4-Wedge 716 AP2, Vokey Wedges 52 and 56 degree, only non Titleist item in my bag is my putter :(
Favorite 19th hole meal (or drink!):
Cranberry and Vodka (The Red Devil)
What do you enjoy most about Team Titleist and why did you join?
What I enjoy most about Team Titleist is all the incredible golf knowledge and opportunities that I have received being part of Team Titleist. Titleist is the best of the best - that is why I would never settle for anything else than the best.
Thanks for taking some time to chat with us, Andrew, and for being part of #TeamTitleist!
