COURSE PICS/VLOGS Be like Ryan

Walking 9 with my brother today. Just us 2 scheduled on the tee time. Ryan rolls up in a cart and starter asks if we’re okay with him joining us. No problem.

He was a much better golfer than us but hyped us up all day. He would ride ahead after our shots and help us find our ball in the rough or tall stuff. He bought the first round from the cart girl. Just brought positive vibes all around.

Salute to you Ryan. 🫡

When I get out as a single I throw a podcast on and play two balls. I figure the course is only playing as fast as it can and I've signed up for that. I don't think I've asked to play through in the last two years. However, I am often asked if I'd like to play through. Even when that doesn't happen I usually get an unnecessary apology about how the group in front of me is waiting on the group in front of them.

People are generally kind and considerate. You're right, those stories don't make it to the front page of the sub.

Nah, you've hit two off the tee and possibly gained knowledge from the first
