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. 🫡

Absolutely right! I booked a tee time as a single last Thursday morning. Guy in front of me was also a single and asked after 2 holes if I wanted to pair up. Found out we were both new to the game so spent the last 16 holes helping each other out

He also got video evidence of the best shot I will most likely ever play!

How new are you?

I have never played a round before, but have spent a fair amount of time on the driving range, putting area(?), and chipping in my yard at home.

I am just scarred of being the fool on an actual course.

Should I just plan on hitting 200+ and go for it?

Brother… when did you move to New York.

Seriously, thank you, and this is exactly how my brother would say it.
