Mark J
Name: Mark "Once a Year" J

Tournaments played in:
1995 - Present (If you want to call it playing)

Best finish:
2nd

Favorite shot:
"The kick the ball over the creek with the handle and break your toe" shot.

Style of play:
I like to pick a mallet up every 4th of July and try to rush to get a practice round in before losing in the qualifying round.

Non-croquet hobbies:
Drinking beer(duh!), anything else the WIFE tells me to do.

Best Club O memory:
They're all a little fuzzy, but I almost won the Green Jacket a few years back. I was poison and had a shot to win the tournament. About a 20ft shot to win it all. I struck the ball perfectly, It went directly at the other ball, then 6 inches away the ball hopped into the air and flew right over the other ball. I guess that could be my best and worst memory.

Where would your ideal tournament be held? In Loxahatchee, Fl. so everyone else can drive 12 hours to play for a change.

Preferred color of ball to use: I don't care what color the ball is, but I do like the ball to be kinda round with not too many flat spots or nicks.

If your mallet had a name, what would it be?
I would call it "one of Sean's mallets".

Mallet composition:
I'm not picky.

What special designs or features, if any, does your mallet have?
It has to have a handle and a head, but most importantly it must be leaning against Sean's garage when it is my turn to play.

List the purpose(s) of them:
Handle - to hold.
Head - to hit ball.
Leaning against Sean's garage - It's available.
