3️⃣ Things in Golf We’re Telling our Friends About:

⓵ Golf to Play

Exciting news in the virtual golf world—Bandon Dunes is now available on Trackman! You can experience the legendary coastal winds, rolling dunes, and breathtaking views of this iconic course, all from your favorite simulator.

Now the real question: will I play Bandon Dunes in person first… or virtually? Here’s hoping it’s the real thing.

⓶ Golf Person to Follow

I met Grant Holly a couple of months ago at The Tree Farm during Masters Week, and he left a lasting impression. A self-proclaimed golf architecture fanatic—he even showed me a notebook filled with detailed course design notes (seriously impressive!)—Grant's passion for the game is matched only by his love for the people around him. One of the most remarkable things about him? He’s the golf coach at Maranatha Christian Schools in San Diego, shaping the next generation of players. I’m hoping we’ll get to tee it up together soon!

⓷ (Another) Golf Person to Follow

Joe Fellini—better known on X as @GolfTravelerJoe—is a true golf enthusiast through and through. Since moving to Pinehurst with his wife Lisa last year, he’s been soaking up the North Carolina golf life. I had the pleasure of playing Pinehurst No. 3 with Joe about a year ago, and I’m already looking forward to the next round—and a pint at The Deuce. He’s a fantastic follow on X, and rumor has it he might be bringing his golf and travel insights to the podcast world soon!
