I’m on the search to find creative and driven storytellers to join our media team - social media, marketing, and production. Fwd this to anyone who’s be a good fit pls 🙏🏼
I recorded a podcast today about the life and times of my best golf buddy here, Snowball. We went everywhere together and his favorite place on Earth was a golf course. As dogs and people often do, he left this world and will forever rest in peace, in our hearts...
Today marks 19 years since I quit drinking & drugs. We’re all touched by addiction in some way-either we have a friend or family member who is or was using addictively or perhaps you yourself are finding you may have a problem. You’re not alone. It’s never too late or too early.
"Golf is deceptively simple and endlessly complicated; it satisfies the soul and frustrates the intellect. It is at the same time rewarding and maddening - and it is without a doubt the greatest game mankind has ever invented." - Arnold Palmer
Realized - rather deeply - while watching Tiger today, that I've never seen him win a major. At the 08 US Open, i didn't have a clue what golf was about. I feel even more connected to golf history than I ever have.
Really wish dogs on courses was more of a thing here in the US. Call your course and ask! If they say no, keep asking! Support courses where you can bring the lil guys out - most munis will allow it.
If you knew your next round would be your last, what would you do differently? Not where or who you’d play with, but how would you play the game differently than any normal day?
“Golf is the closest game to the game we call life. You get bad breaks from good shots; you get good breaks from bad shots, but you have to play the ball where it lies.” - Bobby Jones
The connections between golf and tech, golf and relationships, and golf and basketball…

Our YouTube channel has been live for almost a year and a half. Proud of what we’ve done and would love to know - what’s your favorite video thus far? Mine is The Old Course video.
Started playing golf at this exact spot 9 years ago today when my brother invited me out with him and Dad. One of the biggest gifts I’ve received and certainly the most unexpected rollercoaster. Grateful to everyone I’ve ever played golf with today, but especially my brother.
My mind is always a little blown when I hear about people who have hit a hole in one over 10 times. The average golfer only has a 12,500 to 1 chance of making one. How many aces have you hit?
Did you know the 17th at Sawgrass was designed to look like a heart? Alice Dye suggested that to Pete, thus creating a perpetual valentines for the two. Here’s to loving golf, loving people who golf, and loving people who don’t golf - yet. Happy Valentines Day everyone!
Just wrapped up my last round at Bandon Dunes. What an incredible experience playing the completed course before it opens next week. Where are you all playing this weekend?
I went to Northern Ireland with
@OlaughlinGC
to visit
@RCDgolfclub
, one of Ireland's oldest clubs. It's evident why it's a world top ranked course, surrounded by dunes, ocean & mountains it is said to have the best front nine in all of golf. Watch here ->
... on a wide open course, and as a brand icon that celebrates his being. I have never felt feelings like I did when I held him that one last time. He changed the way I saw golf and he brought other dogs to courses around the world. In some sense, he was member number one at RGC.
This might be the coolest project I've had the opportunity to participate in:
@TaylorMadeGolf
content shoot for 2020! Team TaylorMade is at the Floridian Golf Club to test out the new SIM and SIM Max line of drivers and metal woods. Watch it here -->
A round of golf is a great first date... going live with our newest vlog series in the Scottish Isles. Kicking off this first episode, of five, at Shiskine-- an amazing 12-hole course. Watch the full video now:
To hear or read more, listen to today’s episode where I celebrate his life or read further on my Substack at the link in my bio. Love you, Snowball. 🐾⛳️
I learned today that it is in fact possible to over promise AND over deliver. Tara Iti is a lot of things, but from what owner Ric Kayne tells me, it is just the beginning.
No matter who you are, what country you're in, how much your bank holds, or how long you've played the game, watching that ball leave the club and soar off into thin air is all the information that matters for that split second.
After another look at NZ Ep 1, I was reminded that no matter where I travel, I'm not alone. You all follow me every step of the way and it truly feels like we're making this content together. Can't wait for our next step on this journey.
EVERYONE, this is YOUR chance to get directly involved with the content we create. Tweet @ me with your ideas for future videos! Remember, no idea is too big or too small. If we use it we'll send you a gift specially made for you! Let's hear it!
It is with great pride and enthusiasm that we announce the RGC x Vice Golf Special Edition Ball! Special colored logo treatment and a VERY special ball number (do you know what 17b is??) are what make up this collectors edition golf ball. They drop this Friday at 9:00 AM PST.
One of the coolest things to check out at
@usopengolf
is the range. I watched the pros getting ready for the week and loved seeing all the data
@cisco
is delivering to the big video board. Great to see technology enhancing the experience for players and fans.
Can I break 90 at The Ocean Course? We're set to drop not 1, not 2 but 3 videos from this week's

If this doesn't get you amped for a major week in golf, I don't know what will

There is simply something special about Pebble Beach, particularly in the morning. If you listen closely, there's a soft rumble of the waves hitting the rocks, and a salty breeze whispering to the fresh-cut grass. And, it all happens before your first cup of coffee.
Wish I lived closer to The Goat. Really drives the point that golf isn’t just you, clubs & a course. For me anyway, it’s the people. Now, looks like that would merely be a wave from another fairway. Hope y’all are well & if you’re playing golf, savor it for those of us who can’t.
For my first swing in Egypt I left my watch on, wore jeans, sneakers, and didn't wear a glove. Golf is so much less about protocol than it is about enjoying the experience.
Rarely does the opening hole of a golf course get as close to perfect as Spyglass’ first does. Big, and with a 90° turn to reveal the magic of its first five holes, this par five gives you three distinct moments of magic
@pebblebeachresorts
Big day - dropping the ace cam episode at 10am est and then going live on insta with Stuart at 11am - watch the ep and bring any questions to Instagram then!
In 1995, Constantino Rocca holed an iconic putt from the "Valley of Sin" to force a playoff vs John Daly
@TheOpen
. Just how hard is that putt to hole? Watch as I find out firsthand.
My dad couldn’t make it to the US Open, but thanks to
@cisco
providing great Wi-Fi connectivity, I was able to Facetime with him so he could join in the experience of picking out a gift that he’ll love forever.

“A good golf course grows on one like a good painting, good music, or any other artistic creation.” Said by British golf course architect Alister MacKenzie, who in six weeks of visiting Australia, changed the landscape of golf there forever.
Kicking off tomorrow, we are introducing a new concept to Random Golf Club. We all need a little more mindfulness in both golf and life, so say hello to

Famed golf course designer Tom Doak and I sit down at his Renaissance Golf Design offices and go through some of his amazing artifacts... like a 90-year-old book that he drew inspiration from for his reversible course design.

Excited to share today's podcast with three-time NBA champ
@andre
, where we talk about basketball, life, technology, and of course, golf. Here's the link to listen and thanks to
@cisco
for bringing us together.
Let's face it, there are different types of layovers in the world. My best was a nap and massage at Heathrow; worst was interrogated in Cairo in a dark room by extras from the film Casablanca.
I think the only appropriate caption here is: Heart if you LOVE
