  • The Swoosh Life Podcast ep: 94 - FITS, FAIRWAYS & FRUSTRATIONS | The Mid-Summer Golf Check-In

    We’re back and checking in on the summer of golf.

    Gumby, Keith, and Matt catch up after a short break to talk about their games, summer golf, golf fashion, and the current state of professional golf.

    Why has this year's major season felt a little flat? What's going on with Brooks Koepka? And what does golf need heading into the fall?

    The guys get into all of it — plus plenty of the usual golf talk along the way.

  • Episode 93: U.S. Open Preview, NRG Pack Rankings & Our Picks for Shinnecock

    The guys are back to preview the 126th U.S. Open at Shinnecock Hills.

    We kick things off by discussing Nelly Korda's victory at the U.S. Women's Open before turning our attention to this week's national championship. We talk about the amateurs who earned their way into the field through qualifying, what makes the U.S. Open so special, and some of the storylines we're watching heading into the week.

    We also rank the new Nike NRG Pack, share a few critiques, and debate which shoes stand out from the collection. Finally, we make our Winners Circle picks for who we think will lift the trophy on Sunday and announce our latest giveaway with Turtlebox.

  • Episode 89 – Players Championship Preview

    The biggest week in golf outside the majors is here, and we’re diving headfirst into everything happening at TPC Sawgrass. On Episode 89 of The Swoosh Life Podcast, we preview The Players Championship from Jacksonville, Florida and break down all the storylines surrounding one of the most iconic stops on the PGA Tour.

    We kick things off with the world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler and the chatter around his so-called “mini slump.” Is it actually a concern, or just the absurdly high standard he’s set for himself? From there we get into Brooks Koepka being asked once again if The Players should be considered the “5th major,” and what that debate really means in today’s era of professional golf.

    We also talk about Tom Kim’s electric hole-in-one moment at TGL, the fashion scene popping up in pro shops during these massive tour events, and of course we had to react to the new Players NRG shoe drop from Nike Golf.

    To close things out, we put our reputations on the line with our Winner’s Circle picks — who we think will survive Pete Dye’s masterpiece and lift the trophy at Sawgrass this Sunday.

    The island green is calling. Let’s get into it.
