Episode 25: U.S. Betting Preview with Joe Idone and Some Exciting Hillcrest Announcements
The U.S. Open returns to Oakmont — and we’ve got a full breakdown with special guest Joe Idone (@TourPicks). Joe runs one of the sharpest golf betting accounts on the internet and joins us to talk strategy, stats, and sleepers. We also dive into the latest Hillcrest news (👀), a wild reward from Callaway, and final spots for Spey Bay events.
It’s a packed show — from history at Oakmont to betting picks, weather drama, and whether Phil can finally complete the career grand slam.
