MEET JIMMY WALKER: Professional golfer by day, astroimager by night. As he's traveling the country winning major golf events like the Fry's Open, Sony Open, AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, and most recently 2016's PGA Championship, Walker uses a Celestron telescope housed at New Mexico Skies (NMS) to conduct astroimaging sessions remotely. While he's on the road, Jimmy can process stunning astrophotography of galaxies, nebulae, and more in between rounds.
