A passion for the game is what drew Andrew Wilson into the golf industry. While many avid golfers have believed that there is a profound connection between the joys and challenges of golf and the joys and challenges of living—few have dedicated themselves to the game and combined the two. For Andrew, the irresistibility of golf kept calling him in.
Wilson began his career in the armed services. A four-year stint in the Marine Corps culminated with him acting as a Body Guard to Captain L.E. Allan of the USS Coral Sea Aircraft Carrier. Upon his completion of his military service, Wilson moved to Northern California where he would act as Sales Manager for two water companies in the late 90’s and early 2000’s.
But that golf bug kept biting and while he flirted with the industry for a few years in Santa Rosa, he jumped in with both feet and became an assistant golf professional for Morton Golf at the Bing Maloney GC in 2007. He would rise to the position of Retail Manager and then be promoted to Haggin Oaks Golf Super Shop Floor Manager shortly thereafter. Another promotion came in 2008, this time when he was named as General Manager back at the Bing Maloney Golf Course.
Wilson has been an active participant in the Club Manager Association of America, an award-winner in the Association of Golf Merchandisers and has volunteered countless hours for the 501 3c non-profit Morton Golf Foundation. His specialty has been putter fitting and in 2011, he was named as one of the top ten putter fitting instructors in the country by the SeeMore Putter Company.
