A lot of golf talk happens after we hit “stop.” So we’re opening the door. We’re now recording our post-show hangouts and turning them into subscriber content—because that’s where the unfiltered gear takes, course stories, and real community moments live.

This week brings a different kind of haul: a Whatnot Black Friday preview and a ridiculous shipment of Garson grips. We walk through Odyssey-labeled Max models, Quad Tour in tapered and non-tapered, and special runs tied to Miura and national colors. That leads to a bigger conversation about selling the right way—respecting buyers, curating honestly, and building trust over time instead of shaming bids. If you’re a golf seller on Whatnot, this segment is your playbook.

Then we shift to the tee: course beverage rules, rising prices, and why a staffed turn shack solves so many headaches. We talk about cooler etiquette, morning coffee, and how to balance a club’s margins with a player’s experience. The vibe stays practical—don’t bring a bar, but don’t punish a water bottle when the window’s dark. From there, we hit Thanksgiving plans, Paiute’s reliable conditions, and the wildlife that keeps rounds unforgettable—bighorn sheep, bald eagles, and the occasional snake that changes your club selection.

We also spotlight the Fore Hadley charity auction, already breaking day-one records with stay-and-plays and even a goat-caddie experience in Oregon. Gear nostalgia pops with hickory putters and persimmon woods, which tees up a candid take on Callaway stepping back from Topgolf. Simulators are winning on price, practice value, and weatherproof play. We explore how range-tainment could evolve—think mapped tee shots, chipping stations, and real putting—to keep social golf fun without losing golfers to the course the moment they’re hooked.

And yes, Vegas golf stays close to our hearts. A first loop at Las Vegas Country Club delivers tree-lined fairways, skyline shots, and a chill members’ vibe worth chasing. We’re rolling out a listener-powered Vegas ratings tool so you can rank only the courses you’ve played and see how the crowd stacks them up. Want more of this energy?
