Derek Eldridge

Played Golf nearly my whole life, started in Middle school then went on into high school..in 2003 I developed a method that allowed me to hit the ball farther then anyone I was competing with at the time ...and I was just getting told over and over again that I hit the ball a longways...And that's when I really developed my passion for the love to just hit the ball...I had opportunities to play college golf but never pursued to do so..Instead up until 2010 I was hitting the ball constantly around 340-350yds and I knew then It was time to really try and do something ...2011, 2012 I qualified out of a couple regional qualifiers to advance to the Remax World's, but never could get the time off work to go and Hit...I battled back injuries up until 2019 where I finally won a open Labor Day Clash in Tennessee. Riddled with more back injuries I was able to put a couple years in a golf week amateur tour to stay keep hitting the ball and won a few events there shooting my lowest round 69 in Fairfield OH... I've been an Ambassador to Krank Golf since 2019 and they've been my best performance clubs I've hit being in the long drive and really don't look to change hitting anytime soon.
