Special Episode — Golf Podcasts USA Golf Podcasts USA is America’s local golf podcast network — covering golf stories, course spotlights, and golf culture across all 50 states (plus destination feeds). In this special episode, Brett Smith interviews author Rich Poggi about Fairways and Greens: a Novel — a story where golf becomes a metaphor for life decisions: second chances, legacy, and the shot you never planned to hit. About the book: Doug Parker is the protagonist — once destined for PGA Tour stardom until injury and self-destruction changed everything. Decades later, he’s rebuilt his life teaching the game with discipline and purpose at the club where he grew up… while fighting to keep that golf-only club alive in a changing world — until a phone call from his past forces him to confront what he thought he left behind. If you love golf stories that feel real — this one’s for you. ✅ Full show catalog: golfpodcasts.org 📸 Instagram: @GolfPodcasts 🏌️ Cobra gear: golfpodcasts.org/cobra ✈️ Travel planning: golfpodcasts.org/expedia 🎲 Ledgenz: golfpodcasts.org/ledgenz (availability varies by state; play responsibly) I’m Brett Smith.

We went live from the PGA Show studios in Orlando (Thursday, January 22, 2026) with Daniel Guest (PGA Top 100 teacher, Imagen Golf) and Matthew Gannon (ShipItNation DFS/odds expert) for a fast, fun golf podcast episode covering what’s happening right now in the game. We break down The American Express (PGA West / La Quinta), talk tournament storylines and desert golf, and zoom out to the big picture: the PGA Show, the future of golf, and whether PGA + LIV + everything else is too much golf—including Brett’s comparison to the UFC model and what it means for fans. We also get into equipment and golf tech from the show floor: the rise of simulators, the PuttView app/putting tech, and what’s catching attention in clubs—PXG Lightning and the new Cobra OPTM. Daniel shares practical club fitting tips (what really matters, what golfers overthink, and how to get fit smarter), plus insight from his teaching business and YouTube channel Imagen Golf. Matthew explains how sharp minds look at odds, DFS strategy, course fit, and volatility in golf.
