This blog is my journey to become a member to Team JPX and to #playfamously for Mizuno Golf. If you see Mizuno name Tim Gaestel as one of the final 4 people, I will use this blog to share my experience as a member of Team JPX and what it takes to play famously!

Playing Famously for Team JPX! Mizuno Golf
So the last couple of weeks have been super crazy. I was out playing a really good round of golf when I received the following email
As you can imagine the rest of my round of golf did not go as well because my mind was racing at the possibilities. I ended up leaving the course after one more hole and drove to my house, luckily I read the rest of the email because I had taken this screen shot and was about to post it to Twitter when I realized we werent allowed to notify anyone that we made it through this first stage.
The next few days I wrote a lot about what I would say for my interview and when I finally got the interview I was actually working in the golf shop (a job I took for the summer just in case I was picked to play famously) and I felt like the interview went really well and Marc over at Brand Amp was super nice. He told me that I would be notified sometime the following week.
So the next few days I was more relaxed because I felt I had done everything I could do, I was actually out with a good friend who came in to town for a few days and we made it all the way to the 15th hole when I was in a bunker and my phone began to buzz in my pocket right at the time I hit the ball out of the bunker, lets just say it wasnt my finest bunker shot. When I pulled my phone out I could see that it was the same L.A. phone number and since they said they wouldn't call if I wasnt selected, I got super excited. Stephanie asked me if I was busy, and I told her I was playing a round of golf and she told me that I was picked to join Team JPX and play famously!
I am super excited to be apart of Team JPX and look forward to playing golf against them all in Atlanta in September. Now that the contest to see who plays famously is over, now the competetion to see who is going to win the JPX Invitational and as much as I like all the TEAM JPX members I am going to play everyday this summer and work my butt off! My new goal is to win the tournament! Oh and I hope I can beat Jonathan Byrd on one hole so he has to buy me dinner in Atlanta!
