Episode 264 This is "The Sickly" episode. Matt's struggling with a head cold that's completely affected his ability to talk and to think straight, thanks to some high-quality sleep deprivation. But the show must go on! Even with a slow week in the golf space. The 2024 VGN Season kicked off, and the guys talked about what 3 out of 4 thought were terrible greens out at Las Vegas...

Episode 263 Well, that didn't go as planned. Tiger Woods was briefly back on the PGA Tour. It was his first appearance since Augusta last year, and it certainly didn't live up to the hype again. But can you blame Tiger? People get sick, even the greatest golfers on the planet. Not everyone is immune to the Double Double like we are! That should have led the show this week, but instead, w...

Episode 262 Well, LIV Golf made its first-ever appearance in Sin City this past weekend, and we were on-site to check out the circus. That's not meant as a derogatory statement. It's a fun, loud, entertaining event, much like a circus. We all chimed in on what we liked, what we didn't like, and how it all compared to a PGA Tour event. I think you'll be surprised at what we had...

Like 3 of his top 5 courses he played can be foun...

Loop Golf . Remember that name because there is a 100% chance if you're reading or listening to this episode, you are going to be a user unless you are an Andriod person. We welcomed Thomas Reinholm and Mike Bartels , aka Barrels, from Loop Golf to talk about their, to put it in golfers terms, SICK ASS APP. This episode could have seriously gone on for at least another hour, but in the hour a...

It was episode 25, way back in January 2020, when Tim last joined us to talk about Athalonz . A lot has changed with the shoe company based in the Phoenix Valley. After they did a fantastic job getting their shoes into the hands of some of the best athletes on the planet, when it comes to the Champions Tour and Long Drive competitions, a little thing called Covid happened. There were a lot of smal...

Episode 257 It was an eventful weekend here in Vegas. All four of us from the shoe got out to Boulder Creek and played some golf. It was the first time we all tee'd it up in the same group since Black Desert back in July! Boulder Creek , as always, is in great shape for winter golf. The course is dry, firm, and fast, with some very receptive greens. Matt put his new LA Golf A-Series driver sh...

Episode 255 - Where's Dan?? Like in the early days of last year, we only had three hosts for this episode. Dan was MIA, and we still don't know where he is. 😳 But we prevailed with some talk about golf here in town at Paiute and Angel Park. Angel Park, by the way, is looking GREAT these days! Matt told us all about the new Edel Iron he won in the FadeandFairway giveaway (Thanks, Tyler)...

The 2023 year has come to an end, and we're looking back at all the great moments we had. And DAD IS BACK! The guys started off this week's show with some of the gold they played, and by they, we mean Joe and Dan out at Rio Secco. After some lengthy discussion about Matt's Mayor Of Tinkertown's credibility, the guys started with their top moments of 2023, where each of them sha...

EPISODE 245 It wasn't a difficult task to upend last week's debacle. We tried, but you'll have to be the judge to see if we made up the shitty show a week ago. Despite not having a lot of "Golf News," we still had some things to discuss. The Golf Stop is a new Simulator Lounge in Henderson (West Henderson, along the St Rose Corridor, to be exact) that is opening up in a fe...
