Passion With Purpose: Cigars, Whiskey, Golf—and Why the Off-Season Decides Everything

Most people end the year making promises they won’t keep. This episode of Inside the Ropes does the opposite. We break down what GolfCask Nation is actually smoking right now—from quick back-nine cigars to full-on statement sticks—then slow it down with a powerful distillery reflection from JH Bards that proves real craft is built in hard seasons, not highlight reels. From there, LPGA coach John Lewellen takes us inside the numbers to show how real improvement actually happens when you stop guessing and start paying attention. We close with a reminder that the off-season isn’t about grinding harder—it’s about staying connected through travel, shared experiences, and rhythm. This episode sets the table for what starts January 1: a smarter way to keep passion alive without turning it into homework.
