In this episode of Basic Bogeys, TJ holds it down while Gary is off on dad duty, and welcomes a special guest — Cam Widner, the creative mind behind the hilarious and relatable “Just Go For It Golf” Instagram page.
Cam shares his journey from casual golfer to social media sensation, reflecting on his explosive growth online (from a few thousand to over 27K followers) and the power of making content that resonates with the everyday golfer and parent. From botched Mother's Day tee times to marriage mishaps and athletic nostalgia, Cam opens up about why authenticity matters — in both golf and life.
The conversation dives into Cam’s late start in golf, his sports background (he was a serious baseball guy), and how learning from setbacks helped shape who he is today. TJ and Cam also bond over the transition from competitive team sports to the more sustainable grind of golf as they both age out of the rec league phase.
If you’ve ever snuck in a round before the family wakes up, flubbed a wedge and laughed it off, or just love golf content that hits close to home, this is an episode you won’t want to miss. Laughs, life lessons, and a whole lot of dad-energy
