Chasin' Birdies

In this episode of Chasin’ Birdies, we’re guest-free this week, and we’re here for it. We get a lot of love for our “banter” sessions, so it’s only right to do this one on a holiday weekend.

We get into a broad range of topics in this episode. We say our Happy Birthdays to America and get right into some golf talk. What makes a good Member-Guest partner? Is the course or the partner more important in deciding whether or not you’re i...

Entrepreneurs know best that ditching the blueprint and figuring out what works and what doesn’t can be a more rewarding path. From failures to home runs, overcoming adversity and believing in the vision takes you to greater heights. That’s what happened to our guest today. Gabby Gonzalez is here on Chasin’ Birdies to give us the dish on her rise to fame within the social media world and her marketing agency. 

After our 10-minu...

Our guest today brings some heat to the table when he opens up and tells some tales from the tour…and more. We get to hang out for a bit with our guy, Will Davidson, and hear about this caddie life on Tour for some big-name players, including Lexi Thompson.

We open up with our quick banter for about five minutes before we roll it into Will. He shares his extensive experiences as a caddy on the PGA and LPGA Tours. He discusses the es...

In typical fashion…we open up the show with our seven minutes of banter..recapping the PGA, some bets, and of course our dry humor. We turn the show over to our guest, Billy Draddy, and get right into things with him. We discuss the emotional roller coaster that exists in pro sports, specifically golf, and other topics.

The famous Pocket Polo is a hot shirt by B. Draddy. We hear the story of this polo and how it came to be after ins...

This show gets into some recap of a recent golf excursion in GA and SC. If you’ve been to the Tree (“Peachtree”), you already know how special it is. If you’ve been lucky enough to stay and play at Sage Valley, you will enjoy the commentary in this episode. 

We got into the recent travel golf we’ve both been lucky enough to play. A phenomenal host and a phenomenal group of dudes make any golf trip special. After some tension ar...

We’re back this week with a fresh one, and Jake Stoutland delivers an outstanding guest appearance as he joins us to get into some golf talk and such. The episode begins after our ~10-minute opening with the two of us, and then we roll it into Jake.

We open up the discussions with Jake giving us a look at his background. As an avid golfer, he wasn’t necessarily in the golf space until one day he realized he had a knack for knowing s...

Golf carts don’t really don’t cut it for Daniel. Too slow, and not enough torque. But, the man knows how to get it around the track on weekends. Daniel Dye is here this week to chop it up a bit about his early career in racing and his low-key love for golf.

We get into some fast talk out the gate while hearing the story of his dad owning Roberto Clemente’s car that he drove to the airport before the plane crash. The car gets uncover...

We think people who aren’t into golf don’t necessarily understand the grueling nature of a Member-Guest tournament. To make the shoot out is one goal, but to win it all ties in luck and straight puke-driven guts. That’s what happened to Mr. Pepe and Mr. Katzeff in the recent Pelican Golf Club Member-Guest. We open up and give Pep a big congrats and hear the story from him.

We revisit the recent Pine Needles Invitational that took pl...

If you haven’t seen Sonny do his work on social media, you’re missing out. We sat down with Mike “Sonny” Kollet to chop it up a bit about his social media presence, golf topics, and banter about other odds n’ ends. Tune in and give this one a listen! It’s worth your time. 

fter a quick 7 minute intro with just us, we get to the heart of this episode by introducing Sonny as our guest on today’s episode of Chasin’ Birdies. We ope...

Alex continues to defy the odd...

We love having guests on the show who stay chasin’ when it comes to their dreams. This is exactly our guest today as we sit down with Nathalie Sheehan and hear her story from growing up on the ice to now becoming one of golf’s premier instructors in 2025.

This week’s episode is just a start to the New Year. We have a lot of good talk revolving around golf and the holiday season. We debate when is too early in the year to take a golf trip or when is it too late? 

We just got back from a quick trip to the Sunshine State where we pegged it up for 3 days and got into some talks around that. This light hearted banter episode brings us back to the roots of this show and its fitting fo...

We’re ending the year on a bang. And we can’t thank you enough for the support we’ve had this year. Now, looking ahead to 2025, we can’t wait to keep bringing some good episodes. But for now, we’re joined by two long-lost friends. For context, Sez works for FootJoy, and Sully (Ryan Sullivan) plays at the Pro level and is a Monday Q junkie. We felt it was good to have the boys on and join us on what would typically be our ‘banter’ s...

We’re back this week on Chasin’ Birdies with a fresh one. Patty Maroon sits down with us as we dive into a wide variety of topics.

The conversation bleeds into the NHL world, and we hear some stories of his time in St. Louis, Tampa, and now Chicago. With his down-to-earth personality, it...

After a 7-minute opening from Pepe and Bash, the episode opens up with a memory rehash of a time at Oakmont CC. Charles lends his thoughts on playing at Oakmont and we relive a night there two years ago with George Birge. We jump over to some Augusta talk, and ironically, it’s where Charles grew up. He gives us a glimpse into...

We hear it’s healthy to laugh. Have you? With Taylor Tijerina on today’s episode of Chasin’ Birdies, you’re guaranteed to have a few laughs while giving yourself a dose of a health benefit. 

We open up the episode and get a look into what propelled Taylor on his path to becoming one of social media’s comedian influencers. We hear about his time around COVID when golf was taking off, and work was on the back shelf. He made good ...

This week’s episode we switch it up from the fairway to the treestand and hang out with our buddy Greg Camp from HALO Waterfowl. This is the second real ‘outdoorsman’ we’ve had on Chasin’ Birdies and we get into a lot of good topics surrounding hunting and a bit of golf.

Before we start with our Fall star-studded lineup of guests, we’re starting off with a fresh banter sesh with us two yuckin’ it up. We open up the episode and dive right into college football and football talk, period. We turn the page over and talk about the recent WVU golf tournament we were a part of..for a day. We heckled some of the players and made them feel extra comfortable hitting a t-shot 180 with water left. 

We flip...
