    Pinned Golf - Alec Lorenzo Co-Founder, Host Scott Alphin & Guest Host Jason Collins

    Scott Alphin & Jason Collins chat with Alec Lorenzo Co-Founder of Pinned Golf - One beautiful, sunny Saturday at President's Golf Course in Quincy, MA. Three recent college grads loaded up their bags, the cooler and set out to go low. Only thing was, they were very average golfers and never actually went low. They would use every excuse in the book as to why they weren't playing well. On this specific day, the excuse that was constantly being used was... "What the hell! I thought the pin was way farther than it looked!" This was followed with, "I know, I wish we had a golf rangefinder! Why are they so expensive?!" After testing countless prototypes, hitting many bad shots due to wrong distance readings (at least thats what we tell ourselves), and late nights, they started Pinned Golf. The goal is to make golf rangefinders more affordable and into the hands of golfers all around the world to help improve their game. Over the last four years, Pinned Golf has transformed from a little side hustle into our full time passion with hundreds of thousands of happy customers. We cannot thank our Pinned Family enough for all the continued support and look forward to helping golfers lower their scores and not their bank accounts for many years to come!

    Gary Williams Golf Channel Legend & Golf Industry Expert - Host Scott Alphin & Andrew Argandona

    Gary Williams hit his first golf shot on a range in Boone, NC at age 6. He learned the game and fell in love with every aspect of it as a junior at Ridgewood Country Club. Seeing Tom Weiskopf shoot 63 in the opening round of the 1980 US Open cemented golf in his mind as the most interesting pursuit at the highest level. After forging a career in media in all sports Gary became one of the original hosts of Morning Drive on Golf Channel where he remained for the entire 10 year run of the program. The in depth conversation with people in the game has always been the most rewarding aspect of Gary’s work and conducting the final interview on camera with Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, Gary Player and Lee Trevino will always be his greatest memory. Sit back and listen to this fantastic conversation between Host Scott Alphin, Guest Host Andrew Argandona & Gary Williams

    Jon Mason - Founder of SwingJuice - Host Scott Alphin - Special Guest Host Andrew Argandona

    Dive into the creation of SwingJuice. SwingJuice initially came to market as a beverage company offering a unique energy drink specifically crafted for the golf enthusiast. In 2014, founder Jon Mason transitioned the SwingJuice brand away from beverages and into a golf-inspired apparel brand. The company was developed around the philosophy that it was time to break the mold – to squash the stereotype that golfers are hyper-conservative and stuffy. SwingJuice apparel allows you to display your passion for golf in a more fun, unique and approachable way. Jon Mason Scott Alphin Andrew Argandona
