    400: Does Golf Still Need the Presidents Cup?

    Does golf still need the Presidents Cup? We debate its future, Team USA’s alternate-shot struggles, and the commercial breaks that keep interrupting the action as the Chasing Daylight Podcast celebrates episode 400. Matt, Dan, and Jeremy also dig into Las Vegas golf course conditions. Matt shares why TPC Summerlin impressed him with firm fairways and fast greens, plus his mixed first impressions of Revere’s reopened Lexington course following its turf renovation. Back on the professional golf side, we discuss Medinah’s redesign and Bryson DeChambeau’s backyard challenge videos. We also cover Matt's near hole-in-one with a 7-wood, a Rose & Fire customer-service update, and the Vegas Golf Network’s final stretch. Most of all, this episode is about the community that helped us reach 400. We revisit the show’s beginnings, announce giveaway winners during the recording, and share plans for the next chapter of Chasing Daylight—from golfer profiles and course reports to questions for the hosts and future CDP events. Join the free community on the Chasing Daylight Podcast website, share your latest course report, and tell us what you want to hear next.

    399: Las Vegas Golf Course Conditions: Worth the Green Fees?

    Are Las Vegas golf course conditions keeping up with rising green fees? In Episode 399 of The Chasing Daylight Podcast, Matt, Joe, Jeremy, and Dan share course updates, debate value for local golfers, and explain why player-submitted condition reports matter. The crew discusses improving greens at Reflection Bay, the surprisingly green look of The Club at Sunrise, updates from Angel Park, and renovation news from Revere’s Lexington course. Coyote Springs gets a closer look, including praise for its greens and concerns about the surrounding areas. There’s plenty of equipment talk, too: Titleist Pro V1 versus Callaway Chrome Tour X, golf ball cover durability, headcovers that don’t hold up, and an Odyssey White Damascus putter find. Plus, the hosts weigh in on Scottie Scheffler’s schedule, discuss the golf distance debate, cheer on Trey’s Mid-Am trip, and preview the Episode 400 celebration. Which Las Vegas course has earned your green fee lately? Tell us the course, when you played, and what the conditions were like.

    398: Las Vegas Golf Course Rankings: Now It’s Your Turn

    Las Vegas golf course rankings should include the golfers who actually play here. In episode 398 of the Chasing Daylight Podcast, we break down the latest upgrades to our Vegas course conditions hub and explain how listeners can submit their own course rankings. We cover free player profiles, more detailed practice facility reports, and a ranking system that awards 70 points for the course and 30 for the extras. You can save your progress, return later, and mark courses you haven’t played. Then we get into the Wolf Creek debate, fall golf in Las Vegas, and why course conditions deserve more context than a comment-section takedown. Dormancy, irrigation, weather, and maintenance budgets all enter the conversation. Also on the show: San Diego golf and Torrey Pines pricing, discussion of possible PGA Tour changes, the final VGN major at Coyote Springs, and Matt’s enthusiasm for Callaway’s Mini Spinners. Played a Vegas course recently? Share what you found. Golfers helping golfers—that’s the point.

    397: Vegas Golf Just Got Easier - Course Conditions, Overseeding & Slow Play

    Planning a round of golf in Las Vegas just got a little easier. In Episode 397 of the Chasing Daylight Podcast, Matt unveils the new Vegas Golf Course Conditions hub on ChasingDaylightPodcast.com — a community-powered resource designed to give Las Vegas locals and traveling golfers current information before they book a tee time. Golfers can report greens, fairways, tee boxes, bunkers, pace of play, what they paid, cart restrictions, maintenance issues, overseeding, and more. Recent reports automatically move to the top so golfers can quickly see what a course is actually playing like right now.  Then Matt unloads on one of golf's biggest problems: slow play. After brutal experiences at Rhodes Ranch and Boulder Creek, the guys debate ready golf, better marshaling, consequences for slow groups, and whether premium tee times should come with pace-of-play expectations.  The conversation also gets into rising Las Vegas golf prices, possible cart and water fees, LIV Golf's Chapter 11 news, the Walker Cup, the Irish Open, future Walker Cup venues, and more.  Plus, a shoutout to Harry Hall after another strong finish in Europe and an update on Chasing Daylight video episodes expanding beyond YouTube https://www.fullturngolf.com/ https://chasingdaylightpodcast.com/vegas-golf-course-conditions/ MORE CHASING DAYLIGHT Episodes, articles, golf content & the CDP Pro Shop:  https://www.chasingdaylightpodcast.com/ LISTEN TO THE PODCAST https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-chasing-daylight-podcast/id1464725572 SPONSORED BY GARSEN GOLF — Use code DAYLIGHT15 to save 15% https://garsengolf.com SHOW SUPPORTERS Gretsch Golf Academy — https://gretschgolf.com/ Las Vegas Golf Superstore — https://www.worldwidegolfshops.com/ Rohrs Golf Co — https://rohrsgolf.com/ FOLLOW CHASING DAYLIGHT Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/chasingdaylightpodcast/ X — https://x.com/CDPGolfShow Facebook — https://www.facebook.com/chasingdaylightpodcast TikTok — https://www.tiktok.com/@chasingdaylightpodcast MORE FROM THE CREW Joe's HittinGreens on Whatnot — https://www.whatnot.com/s/Cdk2Zpku Damn Good Putter — https://www.damngoodputter.com/ 1440 Golf - https://www.fourteen40golf.com/ FOLLOW THE CDP CREW Mathew Wangrycht - https://www.instagram.com/1440golf/ Joe Keith - https://www.instagram.com/hittingreens/ Jeremy Martin - https://www.instagram.com/damngoodputter Dan Hodges - https://www.instagram.com/bogey_free62/ Support the show

    The Callaway and Good Good fallout continues — and this week things get even more interesting. On Episode 396 of the Chasing Daylight Podcast, Matt, Joe, Jeremy, and Dan dig into the latest developments surrounding Callaway and Good Good, including reported personnel changes, the reaction across golf social media, and whether the online outrage actually reflects what everyday golfers think. Matt also gives his perspective while making one thing very clear: he works for Callaway, but his opinions on the podcast are his own.  Then there are the LIV Golf rumors. The guys react to speculation about financial trouble, bankruptcy, and the idea of players potentially being compensated with equity in a future version of LIV.  Also on the show: Scottie Scheffler's win at East Lake and the Player of the Year debate, the latest Presidents Cup captain's picks, questionable MyGolfSpy wedge rankings, escalating Las Vegas golf prices, the current condition of Coyote Springs, and a look at the YouTube Golf Tournament episode filmed at Rams Hill. And, as usual, the live chat takes the show in a few directions nobody planned. TOPICS DISCUSSED IN THIS EPISODE: - Callaway and Good Good fallout continues - Personnel changes following the Good Good controversy - Is social media exaggerating the Callaway backlash? - LIV Golf bankruptcy and player-equity rumors - MyGolfSpy's 2026 wedge rankings - Scottie Scheffler wins at East Lake - Player of the Year debate - Coyote Springs course-condition report - Shadow Creek and Wynn golf pricing - Presidents Cup picks and Team USA apparel MORE CHASING DAYLIGHT Episodes, articles, golf content & the CDP Pro Shop: https://www.chasingdaylightpodcast.com/ LISTEN TO THE PODCAST https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-chasing-daylight-podcast/id1464725572 SPONSORED BY GARSEN GOLF — Use code DAYLIGHT15 to save 15% https://garsengolf.com SHOW SUPPORTERS Gretsch Golf Academy — https://gretschgolf.com/ Las Vegas Golf Superstore — https://www.worldwidegolfshops.com/ Rohrs Golf Co — https://rohrsgolf.com/ FOLLOW CHASING DAYLIGHT Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/chasingdaylightpodcast/ X — https://x.com/CDPGolfShow Facebook — https://www.facebook.com/chasingdaylightpodcast TikTok — https://www.tiktok.com/@chasingdaylightpodcast MORE FROM THE CREW Joe's HittinGreens on Whatnot — https://www.whatnot.com/s/Cdk2Zpku Damn Good Putter — https://www.damngoodputter.com/ 1440 Golf - https://www.fourteen40golf.com/ FOLLOW THE CDP CREW Mathew Wangrycht - https://www.instagram.com/1440golf/ Joe Keith - https://www.instagram.com/hittingreens/ Jeremy Martin - https://www.instagram.com/damngoodputter Dan Hodges - https://www.instagram.com/bogey_free62/ Support the show
