Episode 35: Stuart Kerr & Luke Leesburg
Photography, Kiwi Golf and Vintage Nike Clubs
57 Min

For this episode we went global and invited Stuart Kerr, a plumber turned photographer from Scotland (who now lives in Australia) and Luke Leesburg, a club pro from New Zealand who’s now pursuing a career and photography to join us for a conversation. This episode is a great example of no matter how massive the world may seem, a lot of us are chasing the same things; the career of our dreams, opportunities to experience different cultures, and every opportunity to play golf.

Episode 34 - The Indoor Golf Revolution
The Indoor Golf Revolution
54 Min

In a perfect world we’d all have time to play a 4 hour round twice a week, hit the range and work on our lag putting in the backyard. Unless you’re Tiger Woods, that’s probably isn’t the case. With that in mind, there’s been a wave of emerging brands that leverage technology and other modern day tools to create golf experiences that can happen in our living rooms or in the middle of Manhattan. We have two of those brand founders on the podcast today - Jared Solomon from Five Iron Golf and Matthew Allard from Puttr.

Our favorite time of the year is officially here. Things are warming up across the country and we’ve been able to sneak in a few rounds to knock some off the winter rust. Most of all, the first Major of the year is about to kick off in Augusta, Georgia. It’s truly a week like no other. For this episode we’ve got two of our favorite Fairgamers on to talk about all kinds of stuff (including who they think is going to win a green jacket this week).

Golf at the professional level has been very exciting this year. There’s been some pretty epic performance on the course (remember Rory and Colin’s double hole out on 18 at Augusta? One Sunday?). New rivalries across the sport have emerged and have permeated just about every conversation across the globe. For this episode we’re chatting with Trevor Immelman - the 2008 Masters Champion and captain of the International team for the Presidents Cup. Trevor has also played golf in 3 different tours over his career - this guy knows a lot about golf and we had to get his perspective on the game and how he's getting ready for the epic showdown at Quail Hollow.
