Ladies and gentlemen, today we present to you a special mudball monday where we will be talking not only about the goat, but some of the stats and figures that have made this man, our lord and savior, the goat. While there are so many Tiger stats that are mind boggling, it's often those random ones we forget that hit just a little different when revisited. Today, we each take 3 of those to unpack and explore a bit deeper to help communicate our passion for the man. Of course, as always we will b...

You all know what we're talking about. That guy or gal you play golf with that does something that no one, and we mean no one, is into. In this episode we go into a few of our top "don't be that guy" moments in the game of golf to provide nothing more than a fun episode for you all to listen to and reflect on. If you know "that guy" call him out. And, most importantly, if YOU are that guy. Get it straight. DON'T BE THAT GUY! Cheers, - The Tie Guys Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thetiepodca...

We don't chat to a lot of pro golfers at The Tie, but when a pro golfer is also essentially a professional cross fitter, we get fired up. Scott made a massive personal transformation 6 or so years ago from an out of shape pro golfer to now being probably the most fit player on tour. He decided to get into CrossFit to improve his cardio, strength, and flexibility and the rest is history. Scott now trains regularly with some of the best cross fitters in the world and is now extending his training ...

We've talked about pro shops, golf courses, turn houses, etc. but we have not unpacked what it takes to create a great locker and the common threads between the best ones. Today, we're here to change that. We will not be hitting on any specific courses, but we will be eluding to some of our favorite pieces of what makes a locker room great. There are many things that can make a locker room great, but there are a couple touches that immediately make any locker room great. Spoiler, if you are into...

One of our traditions at The Tie, this week we're chatting about our Mavericks (dark horses), heat checks (who we think will have a slower year), and our Stallions (main pick for the year). We don't always chat about the PGATour, but its always fun to get in touch with the pro game and look up and down at the stats and rankings to get ready for a season of tracking the guys out on tour. Hope everyone has had a great start to the new year and we appreciate you supporting us. Big year ahead! Cheer...

Today, rather than go deep on those e...

We're closing out this year's mudball monday campaign with a look to next year with some of our hottest takes for what we might see, want to see, expect to see, and maybe definitely won't see in the world of golf next year.

One of the best interviews in Pro Golf, today we sit down with Maverick McNealy to hear all about his life as a golfer, as well as his life NOT as a golfer. Maverick is one of the most thoughtful, detail oriented players you will ever come across which everyone will certainly gather from this episode. Especially if you are a young golfer trying to get better, this episode has tons of information on how to approach the entire package that it takes to improve. Maverick has gotten better every year...

Gotta be off property, gotta be close, gotta be great. Today we're chatting about some of our favorite places not at a golf course but near a golf course that really enhance the overall day of playing golf. Think a crab shack near Bandon Dunes, great sunrise hikes in Maui, and sublime sandwiches in Charlotte. Great stuff that you're thinking about all day, but not necessarily directly related to the golf. These are the little things we love about the game, and we hope this episode helps you all ...

Fired up to be joined by Sam Williams from Cookie Jar Golf to discuss a budget golf trip through the heathland of England, A lot gets discussed with regard to golf in the UK, but we often only focus on the big name links courses and forgot how much great golf there is to be played just outside London, and on quite the budget. Sam put together 2 trips for us. One of which was super cheap 5 course rota that realistically could be knocked out in just a few days, and the second was still easily unde...

Today on #MBM we are chatting golf courses, and more specifically, where we are wishing we get to play next year. Some public, some private, some local, some international, we have a fairly eclectic list of golf courses for you all that we, The Tie Guys, are hoping we get to take a spin around in 2023. We of course chat the DERT(drinking, eating, reading, and thinking), and as always, there is a healthier than necessary amount of banter and BS. Happy holidays and feel free to hit us up at the li...

Every year, it gets cold. I know, it sucks. Golf is just better when its nice and warm, the body is loose, and the ball is flying far and sure. But, unfortunately there is a time and place to get out there and see what you've got when all of that goes out the window. While setting the clubs aside during the winter months is respectable, we don't recommend it. Rather, listen to today's podcast to hear a bit about what we think of cold weather golf and some of our tips and tricks to better enjoy t...

#PICKLEPOD. Some of you may remember Tadd Fujisawa as the 15 year old hawaiian who qualified for the 2006 US Open then made the cut in the 2007 Sony Open in Hawaii. Well, Tadd would go on to play more than 10 years of pro golf after that only to be found by a new passion that is now his full time gig, Pro Pickleball. Tadd is the head pickle ball pro at Sea Island and also travels around to some professional pickle ball tournaments to compete against other pros. As a total novice to what is now t...

Lukas is back! Always a blast talking to Lukas about golf course architecture AND competition. As we stand in late November 2022, both paths are still an option. As he gears up for a heavy summer with Australia's best events, 7 Mile Beach in Tasmania awaits his return. We go over the project, which is located about 15 minutes from the Hobart airport- nearly 3 hours closer than its predecessor, Barnbougle. We discuss what it's like learning from different approaches on site-- the Mikes (DeVries a...

Foster McCune is not your everyday 23 year old. Instead of going back to school for another year of eligibility with Georgetown Soccer, he continued his relationship with The National Links Trust. A few conversations later, he was found setting up for a Golfers Journal Event with Casey Bannon. "Does this guy work for us"? "Maybe"... Foster is almost 2 years into running an event schedule that puts ambitious golf nuts on the same piece of ground together for a weekend. Almost two dozen states cov...

Matthew Galloway is a man of many talents and few interests. The term 'golf nut' gets thrown around a lot- but what qualifies someone for that title? After a successful college career at University of West Florida and a State Amateur Title, Matt appeared on Golf Channel's "Big Break Mexico". After playing professionally across a variety of mini-tours, it was caddying that gave him the opportunity to see golf through a new lens. In this episode, we discuss: - Mini Tour life - Caddying at Streamso...

Interesting week at The Tie. Inspired by the PGA Tour being in Bermuda this week, The Tie Guys sit down to talk about what we have in the Caribbean, what is coming down the line in the next few years from a golf course standpoint. There are some really neat projects being done and planned on the islands and we are looking forward to seeing what we will have in a few years time. We think there are some neat opportunities to create destination golf options in the Caribbean so let us know what you ...

This was a fun topic to tackle. We have talked a lot about LIV at The Tie and although we may not love everything about it, we do believe it is important to not act as if it doesn't exist or that when players go LIV that they shouldn't have the opportunity to talk about their decision and experiences on this new tour. We figured there isn't really a better guy to talk to about this to get candid insight to his decision than HV3. Harold is a very straight shooter and just an all around good guy. ...

The Cong! Today we're here to take a peek behind the curtain at Congaree to not talk necessarily about the golf tournament from the past week, but the club in general. What it's like to play there, the food game, the vibe of the club, the architecture, and a whole lot more. This is an awesome place that it's been really neat to see allow others to get a look at by hosting a PGA Tour event. If you ever get a chance to go, do it. But until then, enjoy our thoughts on Congaree! Cheers, - The Tie Gu...
