Below is an interview with Kyle Kunash, the Head PGA Golf Professional at Grand Geneva Resort and Spa. The following are a few traditional and non traditional golf centric questions that I love to ask influential people in the golf industry.

Can you provide our readers a brief biography?
I started playing competitive golf in high school and fell in love with the game. Shortly after graduating high school i moved to Florida so I could play year round and start my journey in the PGA program.

When did you start golfing and who introduced you to the game?
I started playing at the age of 11 with my Dad and Brother. I can still remember the first round I beat my Dad for the first time, it was bittersweet for him!

What is your current home course?
Grand Geneva Resort

To date, what is your proudest golf accomplishment?
Becoming a member of the PGA.

What is your biggest golf pet peeve on or off the course?
Slow play and not playing ready golf.

What is your favorite club in your bag and why?
Driver- I love to try to play different shots off of the tee based on the wind and the direction the hole goes, makes the game fun off the tee!

What is your favorite golf destination?
Arizona

What course is on your bucket list that you have not played yet?

All of his life, Brian has been around the game of golf. As a youngster, Brian competed at all levels in junior and high school golf. Brian had a zero chance for a college golf scholarship, so he worked on the grounds crew at West Bend Country Club to pay for his University of Wisconsin education. In his adult years, his passion for the game collided with his entrepreneurial spirit and in 2004 launched GolfWisconsin.com. In 2007, the idea for a network of local golf directory sites formed and GolfTrips.com was born. Today, the network consists of a site in all 50 states supported by national sites like GolfTrips.com, GolfGuide.com and GolfPackages.com. It is an understatement to say, Brian is passionate about promoting golf and golf travel on a local, regional, national and international level.

On the golf course, Brian is known as a fierce weekend warrior that fluctuates between a 5-9 handicap. With a soft fade, known as "The Weis Slice", and booming 300+ drives, he can blast it out of bounds with the best of them.
