    Chasing Darkness: Episode 368 Aftershow

    What does it really take to turn a group chat into a golf trip you’ll remember? We crack open the premium aftershow and let you ride shotgun as we chase limited-edition Garson grips, sketch a custom CDP design, and wrestle flight schedules into a tee sheet that actually works. Along the way, a TGL hole-in-one steals a headline, the Paiute Wolf Course earns praise, and a stack of Midwestern targets—Landmand, Quarry Oaks, Whispering Creek, maybe even the elusive Mini Haha and Mapleton—pulls us deeper into the map.We talk real numbers and real tradeoffs: Allegiant’s nonstop to Sioux Falls vs Southwest into Omaha, arrival windows that protect a twilight 18, and why a minivan beats a cramped trunk when friendships and travel bags are on the line. The gear side gets granular too. Garson’s “major” grip collection looks sharp, the “Stadium” and “Jumpsuit” drop hints, and our own CDP grip mock is set to carry bold color and clean typography down the shaft. Pricing, minimum orders, and fulfillment aren’t side notes—they’re the difference between a cool idea and a community win you can roll on every green.This one feels like a blueprint for golf-obsessed planners: weigh time against cost, pick routes that keep energy high, and stack courses that balance hype with access. We share app tips for logging reviews and photos, celebrate great maintenance and design touches, and admit that the best stories often happen before the first swing. If you’ve ever tried to herd flights, fairways, and family calendars into the same week, you’ll hear yourself in these choices.Hit play, then tell us where you’d route the trip next. Subscribe, share the show with your golf crew, and drop a review with your best flight-and-fairway hack—we’ll read our favorites on the pod.

    367: Tracking Your Golf Travels & Course Ratings: Exploring the Grassy App with Jacob Safar

    Send a text Welcome to Episode 367 of the Chasing Daylight Podcast! This week, we are joined by a special guest, Jacob Safar, the creator and developer of Grassy. If you've ever wanted a dedicated platform just to nerd out about golf courses, Grassy is exactly what you've been looking for. Jacob breaks down how he built this iOS-exclusive social platform to help golfers track their travels, rank their favorite courses, and build their ultimate bucket lists. In this episode, we cover: What is Grassy? Think of it like a restaurant review app or "Letterboxd," but specifically curated for golfers to share course photos and reviews.The Origin Story: Jacob explains how he developed the first version of the app in less than three weeks out of a coffee shop.App Features vs. On-Course Tracking: We discuss why Grassy focuses on the off-course social and discovery experience rather than competing with live GPS trackers like 18Birdies.Future Updates: We brainstorm some new features live on the show, from adding a Chasing Daylight group ranking page to a "Pokedex" for golf courses and AI caddy recommendations.Massive Giveaway: Jacob shares details on the current Grassy app giveaway, including a Callaway Quantum Max driver and over $500 in PGA Superstore and Grassy gift cards! Make sure to hit that like button, share this episode, and go download Grassy on the Apple App Store today! https://www.grassy.golf/ Special thank goes out to our show sponsors: 🏌️‍♂️ Garsen Grips - https://garsengolf.com And also our show supporters: 🏌🏻‍♂️ Gretsch Golf Academy - https://gretschgolf.com/ ⛳️ Las Vegas Golf Superstore - https://www.worldwidegolfshops.com/ 🏌️‍♂️ Rohrs Golf Co - https://rohrsgolf.com/ 🎸 Scott Russo from Unwritten Law - https://www.unwrittenlawofficial.com/ CDP Socials: https://www.instagram.com/chasingdaylightpodcast/ https://x.com/CDPGolfShow https://www.facebook.com/chasingdaylightpodcast https://www.tiktok.com/@chasingdaylightpodcast Joe's HittinGreens Channel on Whatnot: https://www.whatnot.com/s/Cdk2Zpku Follow the Chasing Daylight Crew: Mathew Wangrycht: https://www.instagram.com/fourteen40golf/ Joe Keith: https://www.instagram.com/hittingreens/ Jeremy Martin: https://www.instagram.com/jeremymart/ Dan Hodges: https://www.instagram.com/bogey_free_62/ Support the show SUBSCRIBE TO CDP PREMIUM https://www.buzzsprout.com/1871697/subscribe

    Chasing Darkness: Episode 366 Aftershow

    A knee on the mend, a Vegas field sold out, and a fitting bay full of lessons you can take to your next tee shot—this one moves. We start with the grind of recovery and the slow bend of a CPM machine, then jump into the reality of hosting a community-fueled tournament: corkage fees, free-drink calculus, out-of-towners chasing tee times, and the hard truth about pace of play when the back-nine cocktails hit. It’s Vegas in peak season, but the network makes it feel like your local muni.From there, we pull the hype back to earth. LIV Adelaide as a “fifth major” gets a reality check, and we tip our hats to true comebacks—Ben Hogan’s resurgence and Babe Didrikson’s win under impossible odds. The gear talk runs hot: Mennoo’s turtle putter look, driver head choices between triple diamond and max, fade bias vs forgiveness, and why some pros drift back to what simply feels right. If you’re weighing Callaway options, titleist contenders, or just want straighter tee balls, you’ll find practical guidance here.The core takeaway lands in the fitting story: watch the hands, respect the transition, and pick a shaft that times with your move. A “light, senior-flex” solution turns a chronic right miss into center-face strikes, proving again that numbers beat ego. We talk seven woods for height and control, mishit ball speed that stays up, and how to test across profiles to find the one that protects your bad swings. Around it all, the community shows up: Whatnot friends meeting IRL, local course intel, budget hotel strategies, and a tongue-in-cheek plan to marshal a round in a black cowboy hat.If you love golf’s blend of people, problem-solving, and gear geekery, you’ll feel at home. Hit play, share with a friend who needs a fitting reset, and drop a review with the biggest gear change that ever fixed your flight. Subscribe so you don’t miss what’s coming next.

    Send a text On this episode of the Chasing Daylight Podcast, the crew is back with a slightly sedated host! Matt recounts the wild and hilarious details of his recent total knee replacement surgery—from the pre-op prep to the strictly enforced "new knee, gotta pee" discharge rule. The boys also dive into the biggest stories in golf, debating Anthony Kim’s return to professional golf.

We also host a live giveaway for a spot in the sold-out Birdie Gang Invitational in Las Vegas, roast anyone under 50 wearing Skechers, and geek out over Quantum drivers and vintage Adams irons.

    Chasing Darkness: Episode 364 Aftershow

    Start with a busted mic, add some real-life pain management, and suddenly the conversation gets honest in the best way. We open with insurance stonewalling a knee surgery and how Voltaren, injections, and “come back in 6 weeks” medicine keeps golfers limping instead of living. That frustration lights up a bigger theme: where golf and healthcare mirror each other with recurring costs, quick fixes, and just enough relief to keep you paying.Then the gear nerdiness kicks in. We break down rangefinders without fluff—why Precision Pro’s speed and front-middle-back info hit, how Bushnell stays great yet fragile and expensive, and what Nikon nails with glass but fumbles with stabilization and magnets. The wild part? You can patent a slope algorithm. It’s a window into how golf tech markets features, pricing, and innovation, and why the best device is fast, tough, and distraction-free on a windy par 3.With the tech dust still in the air, we start building a trip you can steal. Fly into Omaha, front-load two rounds at Landmand, and pad the itinerary with Omaha-area courses to hedge against flight changes. That sparks the classic debate: Bandon as an immersive golf universe versus Landmand as a bold, creative canvas. We trade stories that make the differences clear without picking a pointless winner. Along the way, we talk about content clips, a surprise putter hookup, and how to plan smarter golf without getting fleeced by trends.We’re also growing the community for real. New Vegas Golf Network tools—member directory, live chat, and a cleaner way to share charity events and meetups—mean fewer missed invites and more rounds that actually happen. To make premium worth it, we’re lining up a monthly raffle featuring real gear and real value, powered by the brands we trust and the listeners who keep us going.If this mix of unfiltered golf talk, practical gear insights, and trip planning hits your sweet spot, follow the show, share it with a golf friend, and leave a quick review. What’s your take: Landmand or Bandon—and why? We’re reading every reply.

    Send a text In this episode, the boys are joined by Jonah Mytro, co-founder of Precision Pro Golf, to pull the curtain back on the golf technology industry. Jonah shares the origin story of taking on industry giants like Bushnell and Leopold by bootstrapping a company focused on what golfers actually need—not just expensive bells and whistles. We dive deep into the tech, discussing why rechargeable batteries are the future, the science behind "slope" algorithms, and why some major brands are failing on stabilization. Jonah also gives us an insider’s look at the PGA Show, the rise of golf influencers (from Good Good to No Laying Up), and the frustration of "Chinese crap" flooding Amazon.
