Junior Clinic at Waikoloa

This past weekend I did a video and photo shoot for Waikoloa Beach and Golf Resort on the Big Island of Hawaii. It was not the main event though, a junior clinic with a putting contest was the main attraction for the weekend. It was a great first, of hopefully many, visits for me to some of the junior golfers on the Big Island. I was able to meet many of these young junior golfers and hopefully share some of the things that I have learned growing up in Hawaii and how I have made it onto the PGA Tour.







My thanks go out to the staff at Waikoloa for putting on such a great event and for all the parents and juniors who attended. I am looking forward to my next visit back out toward the end of the year.
Aloha,
Parker

New Orleans

Hello again from New Orleans! Our time here seems to be flying by. We have enjoyed etouffee multiple nights in a row now (which we were introduced to by one of our very best friends) It is this amazing combo of crawfish, rice, and vegetables, in a yummy Cajun sauce. Honestly I was intimidated by the crawfish at first, but now I am hooked - you will have to try it! We also had the opportunity to see Hootie and the Blowfish the other night - they are so great live!

Today a group of us participated in a build for the Habitat for Humanity in the upper 9th Ward. I am still in awe of all the devastation that remains but more taken back by all of the people that are joining together to bring this community back on its feet.




The other highlight of the week was one of our all time favorite meals - at Acme Oyster House. We ordered the Charbroiled oysters that were amazing, so much so that we had to get a second round ;)


Aside from the many food highlights, we have truly enjoyed our New Orleans experience and look forward to making this an annual stop.
