What does this club mean to you? RattleSnake has been my home for the past six years. It’s where I first learned how to play the game, and I would not be the player or the person I am today without this club.
Throughout my time here, my coach, the players, the staff, and the members have all had a lasting impact on me. Each of them has played a role in shaping my growth both on and off the course.
The memories, friendships, and experiences I’ve gained at Rattlesnake will stay with me forever. This club has meant so much to me, and it will always hold a special place in my heart.
My favourite hole: No. 1 on Copperhead. It’s a great opportunity to start the round with a birdie.
Favourite pro golfer: Rory McIlroy
One fun fact: I shot even par on Sidewinder within my first year of playing golf.
