Nicole W.
Golf expert with vast equipment and apparel knowledge
I've been playing golf since I was eight-years-old when my grandfather signed me up for a junior golf camp, and I fell in love with the game. I grew up playing at Makray Memorial Golf Club in Illinois. I was the number-one player on my high school golf team and won conference two years in a row.
After college, I moved to Florida and became a member of a country club in Tampa. I've worked in pro shops at three different country clubs, selling golf equipment and apparel. My work experience has provided me with a vast amount of knowledge to help golfers find the right equipment for their game.
I also caddy for a professional golfer in my free time, which has helped me at the highest level. I love golf for the connections and friends I've made along the way. I love to help people find equipment that is right for them, so they can enjoy this great game!

Horrible no knowledge
Didn’t ask any questions to gather information about my statistics and play style, proceeded to recommend a bunch of random products that don’t fit me whatsoever. Told her my swing speed 110-117 mph and spin without her asking and she recommended literally the opposite of what the manufacturer recommends (Bridgestone ball for swingspeeds below 105 mph) also told her I wanted to decrease spin which she didn’t care for.

Professional, Knowledgeable and Friendly!
At first, I was skeptical about using the service and a chat feature. However, I soon found that Nicole was a real person with a tremendous amount of knowledge and expertise in the game of golf, equipment, and what equipment would best suit my needs. I found a call to be extremely professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. Her recommendations were very close if not spot on to research that I had been conducting. I highly recommend Nicole and encourage you to be open and receptive to her recommendations. Great job Nicole. Happy new year!

Terence's experience with Nicole
Nicole took the information I gave her about my golf game and came up with an option that fit me. Since I am a casual golfer she gave me suggestions for clubs that were the most forgiving and not something that might take some time to figure out. I don't practice at all :). This is what I needed.

Yes, Nicole has been GREAT, and very responsive.
We’ll, I’m trying to get a new start with new clubs after a nasty bout with cancer. Having been a collegiate athlete, and active participant in softball until age 40, ice hockey until age 46, and downhill and cross country skier until age 70, my entire life has been upended by the bi-products of the insidious disease.
In responding to “Curated”, I’m hoping to jump back into normal recreational golf with equipment that will enable me to “make the most of what I’ve got” and get back out on the course once again.
“Curation” seems to be a wonderful tool that when used properly, can get a former golfer back on track (with help), to launch a new positive directive and course toward a new beginning.

Kenny's experience with Nicole
As I am a rookie golfer with limited knowledge about clubs, Nicole made this process so easy and streamlined with her expertise and excellent customer service. She tailored a list of clubs to my specifications taking out the hours of research I would've had to do and allowed me to shop around and ask questions. She was great to work with!

Amazing!
Nicole was amazing! She was very responsive and knowledgeable to questions. Did a great job getting me matched to new irons. Found some great deals for me on irons that I would have paid way more for elsewhere. Overall it was a great experience and am thankful that I had Nicole to help along the way.

Kim's experience with Nicole
I am not 5 star satisfied, but that is because I haven't received my full order yet.
What I received I am overjoyed with.
But some orders are coming direct from Taylormade, and won't receive until Mid February.

Corey's experience with Nicole
Wasn’t informed the items I ordered were on back order. First item showed up with the wrong specs and wrong item. Replacement shipped to the wrong address. Not getting any info on shipping info for items being delivered. Main order still hasn’t shipped and it was ordered first week in February. Warning on back ordered clubs would have been nice.
