Uses a pink shaft in his driver...Father, Gerry, started him in golf... Attended the same high school-Milton (FL) High School a few years after current PGA TOUR players Heath Slocum and Boo Weekley...Self-taught player who learned the game by hitting wiffle balls around his house. "The house was probably an acre and a half yard with big trees, downtown Bagdad (FL). The house is sitting here, and I drew in the dirt driveway. I'd draw a big circle, and that would be my hole, a 5-foot circle. I'd go around it to the left and then I'd go around it to the right. So I learned to cut it. If you know about wiffle balls or plastic balls, it's hard to cut. Then I learned to hook it the other way, hit it high over limbs, hit it low under limbs. I'd say non-stop every day from 6 to 12 years old. Instead of playing with trucks out in the yard, I'd play with a ball and a club."...Is using the same putter he has had since he first took up the game...Wife Angie is 6-foot-4 and a former University of Georgia, WNBA and European professional basketball player...Sponsors the Bubba Watson Invitational at the University of West Florida, a women's NCAA Division II golf tournament at Stonebrook Village GC, Watson's home course in Pace, FL...Affiliated with The First Tee of Northwest Florida and the Ronald McDonald House of Pensacola, FL...Without letting family and friends know, completed requirements toward a degree at the University of Georgia in the summer of 2008, thereby validating his push for kids to stay in school.
