Jose was on this podcast last year promoting TheGrint, a handicap app that tracks scores, fairways, greens and more. Now he's back with a new app that lets users buy and sell golf equipment online. The app is called Gimme Golf and has only been out for a few weeks. The app is invitation only, but is already impressing users worldwide.

On this episode of The Wednesday Match Play Podcast you will learn more about the app, how to access the app, and what the experience is like. It was great having Jose back on the show. Let's jump into it.

When Ed and I connected on Twitter I knew we were going to be friends. He writes for Golficity, has a podcast called Duff to Darts, knows Kris McEwen and is a big Tiger fan.

This was a really fun episode and I think you will enjoy it. Let's jump into it.

I first connected with Orlando on Instagram. His content is incredible. It's funny, it's positive, and he has a background with The DkF Boys. He's moved on a little bit from that, but on this episode of The Wednesday Match Play Podcast, you'll learn more The DkF Boys, his relationship with Cut Golf and how he knows Coach Rusty. I was actually supposed to meet this guy in Bermuda a couple of years ago, but glad we were able to connect here. We also talk about The Walking Dead. I really enjoyed this conversation and I think you will, too.

When it comes to golf shirts, there are a lot of options out there. Most designs are simple, some pushing the edge of what we're used to. Then comes Waggle Golf, a new company offering shirt designs that most would consider "out there" and cutting edge. On this episode of the podcast Travis Baker gives us an overview of the company, talks about what we can expect next from Waggle Golf and shares some insight on the shirt names. This was a fun episode an I really enjoyed our conversation.

If you play golf, then you know what GolfNow is. If you work in the golf business, then you know who Mike Hendrix is. Mike is the Vice President of GolfNow Business Services and is working to improve client businesses through introductions of golfers, technology, services and cost-cutting solutions. When Mike started with GolfNow he was a Regional Director before being promoted to Senior Regional Director. We first met when Mike was the Senior Director for GolfNow PLUS. We stay in touch on social media and I was excited to get Mike on the show to talk about GolfNow. Oh, and Mike is originally from the Midwest, so we have plenty to talk about there, too.

I had the pleasure of working with Jim Simpson for 8 months at Tiburón Golf Club at The Ritz-Carlton Golf Resort, Naples. Jim and I became quick friends and I always enjoyed seeing his smiling face around the club. Every time I saw Jim he would shake my hand and he truly goes out of his way to ensure members and guests have an unforgettable experience day in and day out. He has a lot of experience in club management and brings his passion for overall member and guest satisfaction to everything he does.

This episode is a long time coming and I am honored to welcome Jim to the show.

I'm not sure where I found Amanda Rose, but glad I did. She is hilarious, has a great sense of humor, and really does her due diligence. She hosts the "Out of Bounds" video series where she tackles hot topics in the game of golf. Her videos are short, to the point and thoroughly enjoyable to watch. She also spent some time at Golf Channel and is a really good golfer!

On this episode of The Wednesday Match Play Podcast Amanda tells us more about Out of Bounds, introduces us to her dog Coco, discusses wearing shorts on the PGA TOUR and the possibility of a bilingual version of the show. Amanda is a lot of fun, has a ton of energy, and I really enjoyed this conversation.

I remember meeting Tommy in the Troon corporate office nearly 6 years ago. Not long after we met he started working at The Westin Kierland Resort & Spa. A few months ago he moved to Florida and starting working for Nicklaus Design. Tommy and I stay in touch and text all the time. I am so proud of him and what he's accomplished thus far.

On this episode of The Wednesday Match Play Podcast you will learn more about his role at Nicklaus Design, Jack's involvement in the company, his experience at the PGA Merchandise Show earlier this year, and more about their design process. It was great catching up with Tommy and I know the future is bright with this kid. Oh, and Tommy's brother is a competitive golfer.
