Personal Statement

My name is Mason Dozer and I am currently a senior at Bonita Springs High School. I have been playing golf for 7 years and have always had a strong passion for the game. I am a member of many different junior tours in the state so I always have healthy competition that keeps challenging my abilities so I can grow as a player.

I go to the practice facilities 5-6 days a week and always play 1-2 times a week on the course. While working on the range, I am specific with drills and movements that I want to improve in my swing. I focus on my weaknesses to make myself a complete player and leave no aspect lacking in my game. Recently, I have been focusing on improving my proximity to the hole with my wedge game and speed control on lag putting. I also have been going to the gym to increase my strength and athleticism to improve my game as a whole and give me an edge over my competition. I always put in the work, practice, and time to improve my game and improve as a player.

Throughout my high school career, I have been a 4 time varsity team captain, advanced to the FHSAA regional tournament all 4 years, and I was the first person in my high school’s history to qualify, advance, and compete in a FHSAA State Championship event. This past summer, I won the Southwest Florida Junior Golf Association Boys 16-18 Championship Player of the Year award winning 3 events and having 4 runner-up performances.

Outside of golf, I love all things athletics like going to the gym and playing other sports. I have a passion for aviation and I am working on receiving my UAS licence and my private pilot's license. Also, I play the drum set and love listening to music. In a school, I am looking for a good balance in education and athletics where I can earn a degree in Sports/Business Management and be supported and a part of a great collegiate team.

Events

Camp/Event
SFPGA Challenge Tour Event #7
9/12/20 to 9/12/20
I shot a good 75 during round 1 in windy and wet conditions. My ball striking was great but I just did not make any putts. I gave myself so many good looks and opportunities and I was hitting great putts, they just wouldn't go in and I burned a lot of edges. Round 2 was cancelled due to weather which was disappointing because I felt like I would have a great day even if I got a few putts to drop.
Camp/Event
Florida Junior Tour Everglades Open
8/08/20 to 8/09/20
This tournament was a very interesting challenge. Half way through my first round there was a weather delay and play was canceled until the next day. I played six holes that morning, waited another hour, and then teed off for my second round. During this round, we got through 15 holes before another weather delay when we waited 3 hours for the weather to clear and finished the tournament in the rain. I shot a 78 the first round and a 77 the second round. For me, this was the first time I have ever experienced something like this and it was a great learning experience for me moving forward. The course was wet and played 7,117 yds.
Camp/Event
SWFJGA Event #5
8/05/20 to 8/05/20
Today I played some great golf and shot a 75. I made bogey on the last hole (par 5) because there was a hidden water hazard right of the green that I was unaware of. My tee shots were not great today as it was a very tight course but I did a great job scrambling for pars and taking advantage of the good drives and giving myself as many birdie opportunities as possible.
Camp/Event
SWFJGA Event #4
8/03/20 to 8/03/20
Historically, this course has always gave me a little trouble as it has some hidden hazards and does not really fit my eye. I managed to score a 76 today despite making a double bogey on my first hole. I was able to regroup and refocus in order to get myself back in the tournament. My wedge game was great today and I gave myself many changes for birdie with many close approach shots. I took home 3rd in this tournament and this proved to me that no matter how you start, never lose focus and always keep going because it is never over until the final putt drops.
Camp/Event
SWFJGA Event #3
7/14/20 to 7/14/20
This was a good tournament with a 75 in difficult and hot conditions. The greens were very firm and difficult to hold which made short game crucial. I managed to make 4 birdies on my day today but chipping cost me. I managed to win the event but I identified the problem with my chipping and now what I have to do to improve. Also, the heat index today was 108 and my endurance was put to the test.
Camp/Event
The SWFJGA Fire Cracker Open
7/06/20 to 7/07/20
On the first day I did not have my best game and shot a 77. I struggled with my approach shots which is very unusual for me. I figured out that I was taking the club a little too far inside on the back swing. During round 2 I was +3 on my first six holes but I was able to refocus and collect myself and shoot 1 under on the next 12 holes to end up with a 74 and finish in second place overall for the tournament.
Camp/Event
The First Tee Jr Tour Event #2
7/02/20 to 7/02/20
Today I had a good round of 74 at the Hideout Golf Club in Naples. I was able to take advantage of the forgiving front nine and make good pars on the difficult back nine. My approach shots and iron game was good today but the putter was cold. The greens were recently punched and sanded which made it difficult for my ball to stay on its intended line even though I was hitting good putts all day.
Camp/Event
SWFJGA Event #1
6/29/20 to 6/29/20
I played well today with a good score of 76. This course was playing 6,669 yds and was a very difficult course. The greens were very slick with a great amounts of slope and quick speeds. The landing zones off of the tee were very tight but I was able to hit 11/14 fairways on this difficult driving course.
Camp/Event
The First Tee Jr Tour Event #1
6/25/20 to 6/25/20
This course was playing 6,427 yds and was very tight off of the tee. I shot a solid score of 72 and won the tournament. My ball striking was great and I was able to scramble and make par when out of position.
