This week on Golfers Anonymous, I'm joined by Brian Decker, the creative mind behind the camera for Crayon Courses.

We explored Brian's unique journey into the world of golf course architecture and how Crayon Courses blends his artistic talent with a deep love for the game. Brian shares insights into his creative process, breaking down what makes golf course design captivating.

Brian also takes us inside his role at TPC Toronto, providing a behind-the-scenes look at the preparations and expectations for this week's Canadian Open. From course setup to player insights, we preview what fans and players can look forward to at this exciting event.

This week I’m joined by Zach and Brian from the Makeshift Pod. We talked about how each of them got into the game, what it’s like playing golf in the big city, and how they’ve carved out their own space creating content around the sport.

We also spoke about their experience teeing it up in Saudi Arabia and rounded out the convo with some around the horn debate topics from Reddit.

Zach and Bryan have awesome energy for the game and it was great to have them on the show!

Most golfers show up to their favorite course and never think twice about the grass under their feet. This week, we’re changing that.

I’m joined by Richard Milko for a behind-the-scenes look at what it really takes to maintain a golf course. Richard shares his journey from culinary school to turf management, and how he found a passion for creating the kind of conditions golfers dream about.

We get into everything—spring prep, tournament builds, the science behind aeration and sand, and the constant balance between playability and challenge. Richard also talks about the renovation process he just went through with Kyle Franz, the teamwork it takes to keep a course running, and why grass selection is way more important than most people realize.

One of the best things about golf is how personal the journey can be—and how it brings people together in ways you’d never expect.

This week, I’m joined by Corey Davis, who picked up the game during COVID and never looked back. We talk about what it was like learning golf from scratch, the challenges that come with being a late starter, and how the game started to intersect with something even bigger—his sobriety.

Corey shares the story behind Soba Golf, a wellness-driven golf community he launched to create space for people navigating recovery, mindfulness, and personal growth—all through the game of golf. 

Plus, we kick around some takes on LIV vs. PGA, the entertainment side of the sport, and why golf keeps pulling people in—no matter how or when they start.

One of the wildest traditions in golf happens after the final putt drops at the Masters.

This week, I’m joined by David Rumsey from Front Office Sports, who was one of 28 lucky winners of the media lottery and got to play Augusta National the day after the Masters wrapped.

We talk about how it all went down—what it’s like getting that golden email, trying to prep the night before, and stepping onto the first tee. David breaks down the round hole by hole, including how much he leaned on his caddie, which shots surprised him, and what it felt like playing some of the most iconic holes in golf… with no patrons around.

It’s a surreal story, and hearing it from someone who actually lived it makes it even better. This one was a blast.

This week on Golfers Anonymous, I’m joined by Jon Cone, a geologist and the voice behind Milwaukee Golf Blog, who brings a seriously unique perspective to the golf world.

We talked about how his background in geology gives him a fresh appreciation for golf course design—especially in a place like Wisconsin, where glaciers left behind some of the most fascinating terrain in the country. From Erin Hills to Sand Valley to Lawsonia Links, Jon breaks down how the land itself tells a really cool story.

We also got into his journey with the game, the vibrant Milwaukee golf community, and a lost golf course on the land that is now used for Chicago's O'Hare International Airport.

This week on Golfers Anonymous, I’m joined by Aaron Schrank from Rustic Golf Provisions. We talked about his roots in Rhode Island golf, how he fell into photography, and the connection between the two.

Aaron shared stories from trips to Pinehurst, Southern Pines, Payne’s Valley, and Fishers Island, and how he captures those moments with disposable cameras. We also got into his mission to play every public course in Rhode Island, what he’s learned along the way about expressing his creativity, and the ways golf brings people together.

This week on Golfers Anonymous, I’m joined once again by Jordan Jackson from Dog Tracks and Cow Pastures to preview the 2025 Masters.

We got into all things Augusta—starting with the course changes after Hurricane Helene and what those might mean for this year’s tournament. We talked about the legacy of the green jacket, and what a third Masters win in four years would mean for Scottie Scheffler. We also looked at some of the other big names heading into the week—Rory, Rahm, Bryson, and Morikawa—and why Augusta is such a unique challenge for certain players.

To wrap it up, we did our own Masters draft—breaking down favorites, dark horses, and a few guys we think could miss the cut. 

This week’s guest is Jimmy Bunkers, a golf-obsessed Aussie and our second guest to call in from the land down under.

We talk about Jimmy’s path into the game—how he made the switch from Australian rules football and basketball to golf—and the mindset shift that came with it. He walks me through his 75 Day Hard golf challenge, which focuses on daily practice, course management, and consuming all kinds of golf content to level up his game.

We also dive into the golf culture down under, his love for volunteer-run courses, and his mission to play and highlight the kinds of courses most golfers tend to skip over. 

Jimmy’s approach is refreshingly honest, and it was a blast picking his brain on all things golf.

My guest this week is Hannah Rae—a content creator, comedian, and self-proclaimed former golf hater who’s now fully hooked on the game.

We dive into Hannah’s unlikely journey into golf, how her work with St. Andre is helping make the sport more fun and accessible, and the creative process behind building engaging golf content. She shares stories from working alongside legends like Tiger Woods, reflects on how comedy shapes her approach to the game, and opens up about the friendships and moments that have made golf meaningful for her.

We also get into the DP World Tour video she created with St. Andre—which, in my opinion, is the best piece of golf content ever made. Hannah was an absolute pleasure to talk to, and St. Andre just keeps crushing it.
