Was a high school All-America selection in basketball and was a member of a Colorado state high school championship team.

Being a member of that state championship squad remains his biggest thrill outside of golf.

Was a basketball standout at the University of Northern Colorado where he was a four-year letterman and a member of the school's 1,000-point club (1,062 points). Member of the school's Athletic Hall of Fame.

Got started in golf as a caddie.

Favorite golf course is Desert Mountain in Scottsdale.

Enjoys the movie "Rudy."

Occasionally uses his son as his caddie.

Owns a Harley-Davidson.
