Christopher Parcell

“CP” is celebrating his 19th year in the Golf Vacation business this year. Originally from Austin, TX, Chris has lived in the Scottsdale area with his wife Michelle since 1999, and has witnessed his own handicap go from 12 to 20 since the birth of his daughter Abigail in 2003.

The founding member of the Scottsdale based “CPGA” where wagering is more revered than actual skill or work ethic on the range, CP has been “totally lucky” enough to score 2 Holes in One - the first in 1993, and the 2nd in 1996.

A die hard Pittsburgh Steelers fan, CP is in a sense, bitter. He’s a die-hard Steelers guy who works for a company based in, of all places, Baltimore, Maryland, home of the hated Ravens. What can you do?

CP’s expertise lies in:
