EPISODE 274

So much to talk about on this week's show!

Matt played in his first-ever Member/Guest at TPC Summerlin and forgot how to play golf. But the Tacos were amazing!

The Vegas Golf Network was out at Reflection Bay this past weekend for the season's first Major. And, well, Reflection Bay is struggling with the new greens.

Retail prices for golf merch and gear are at an all-time high. We're talking about $80 for a box of Titleist golf balls.

Bandon Dunes celebrated its 25th anniversary, and in the celebration, they opened up the new Short Course, rightfully named Shortys.

Deep Thoughts kind of returned this week as we dove into the difference between the casual round with the homies and tournament golf.

Thanks again for tuning in, and if you could do us a favor by liking the show and even leaving a review, we'd greatly appreciate it!

EPISODE 273

We're all over the map in this week's show!

Matt and Joe headed south of Vegas to Bullhead City to play the very underrated Laughlin Ranch Golf Club. It's a hidden gem in the desert Southwest, and we talked about our day there.

Dan is in Frisco, Texas, caddying in the PGA Professionals Championship. He shared details about the new PGA Headquarters and the courses he's been looping around the past few days.

Shoutout to Kyle Mendoza, who is playing great and has an opportunity to return to the PGA Championship in Valhalla.

Joe had himself a day getting the uber-exclusive invite to one of the most sought-after tee times in Vegas. He spent Tuesday walking The Summit, a Discovery Property in Vegas in the western part of the valley. The Fazio design course is a gem, and Joe talked about the round.

Jeremy, in the meantime, has been in Miami chugging Cuban Espresso, so who knows when he'll be back!

Matty G. let us know what the weather has in store for everyone playing at Reflection Bay this Saturday for the first Major of the Vegas Golf Network season.

And then we went sideways to wrap up the show. Lol

Scottie is unstoppable. Kelly Norda, err, Nelly Korda, is too. Jim Nantz, you bozo. We have much to talk about this week besides the PGA Tour. Expect to hear a lot about Popstroke, which just opened up in Vegas this week, and the VGN was put in Pahrump!

Episode 271

Wow, what a show this was; we invited a few friends of ours, Jenner Wilson and Cyrus Janssen, to come on and hang out. Why them? Well, both were in Augusta for the Masters and on-site during the tournament.

They shared some great insights into what it is like being on the grounds at Augusta, from no cell phones to concession stands, the merchandise, the gnomes, and everything else you can imagine when it comes to being at The Masters.

We typically like to run for about an hour, but this one kept going, and we promise you, you will enjoy it!

We also gave away the Peach Ice Cream Sandwich Ball Marker from Atomic Golf
Congrats to @ksomers18 on YouTube!

Thanks again to Jenner and Cyrus for joining us for this one. If you're looking for a reason, not that you need one, to head to The Masters one year, you'll want to tune in!

EPISODE 270

Since we're very far away from getting a media invite to cove the Masters, we decided to try and bring some of the South, West, so we invited our friend and highly talented craftsman, Joel Leopard from Atomic Golf (not the driving range, the OG Atomic Golf) to hang with us and talk all things Augusta.

Joel is based in Akin, South Carolina, which is about 20 minutes from the town of Augusta, Georgia. He's been around the Masters for YEARS and shared some great stories about this time of year in the South. 

Some other topics we hit on during this episode:


Pop Stroke Vegas is opening on April 22ndAndersonOrd, have you heard of them?Golf Channels SuperBowl is stepping up the ad gameRahm says the Team Aspect is why he left the PGA TourBrooks canned his trusty putter in favor of a malletWill Tiger make the cutThe Top 20 Odds for the TourneyOur Picks We want to thank Joel for hanging with us. It's always awesome to have a different perspective on the best golf tournament of the year! We look forward to the next time he joins us to chat golf.

If you'd like to listen to our interview with Joel that took place back on Episode 7 (June 27, 2019), click on the link below.

Just go to our YouTube Channel and leave a comment on this episode's live broadcast telling us who you think will win this year's Masters. That's it, and you don't even have to be right!

EPISODE 269

Back with more golf talk this week as we are ONE WEEK AWAY from The Masters!

So much great talk on this week's show!

Matt went into detail about the new phone app he found called Hello Birdie. Not for the Soul Golfer; this app goes into great detail about your round. From preround planning to in-round caddy options, it's backed to the nines with features.
https://www.hello-birdie.com/en/

We were snubbed by either Shadow Creek, MGM Rewards, T-Mobile, the LPGA, or all of the above when our request for Media Credentials for this weekend's LPGA Tour event at the Stoic course was denied. Regardless, we're still big fans of the LPGA Tour, and we're looking forward to watching the tourney, if it's even on TV, and seeing the amazing Shadow Creek.

Atomic Golf vs Atomic Golf
We love the Vegas golf space, obviously, but we totally forgot to call out Atomic Golf Las Vegas for "stealing" the name Atomic Golf from our friend Joel Leopard of Atomic Golf. It will be interesting to see what happens, and we'll make sure to keep everyone informed as much as we can.
https://www.atomicgolf.club/

The Vegas Golf community lost a great man this past weekend.
Ron, aka DBLR (Double R), was a presence in the community and will be missed. While we didn't get the opportunity to tee it up with Ron while he was with us, many of our friends and followers of the show did. We were honored to play a tribute video from some of the people whose lives were touched by Ron. RIP DBLR!
