I could not be more out on Aaron Rai after watching this featured group. Guy is just so annoying to watch. Could potentially be least favorite player on tour

Shrink the game back to an atom.

More data points in the WSJ piece about rising popularity of golf:
- Rounds played up 14% in 2020 and increased almost every year since (4.8% decline in 2018 and 1.5% rise in 2019 for context)
- Junior participation 58% higher in 2025 vs 2019
- Off-course participation up 63% vs 2019
- Gen Z household spending on golf grew the most of all age groups
- 19M Americans only play off-course, big runway to convert
- Industry consolidation has cleared out the weaker players (Nike, Adidas's TaylorMade, Golfsmith all gone)
- Acushnet $GOLF nearly tripled over 6 years, Callaway $CALY in the article) up 50% since announcing Topgolf sale

Really shows how coddled all these tennis players are with all the heat chatter.

Since this concept is hard for people, here’s a lesson in how business works.
I buy a golf grip for wholesale price.
Let’s say it’s $5.
I sell and install that grip for $12.
Gross profit $7.
Costs you don’t see.
Tape, grip solvent, rent for my building, insurance for my building, utilities for my building, the time it’s taken me to be efficient installing a grip so that it takes me less than 2 minutes from start to finish, the taxes I pay on the $7 profit from selling that grip.
That $7 profit turns into $3-$4 profit very quickly.
You can insert any product into this scenario.
You idiots complaining about the price of things are either uneducated or broke.

Course: 9.9/10. It’s my favorite course i’ve ever played. There are maybe 2 weak holes, but the rest are a fantastic.
Membership: very humble, kind, and welcoming
New Clubhouse: An unfortunate mistake. I know they “needed it”, but no frills is what makes Scotland golf special

Would be rude not to give a shout out to B Draddy, who is fighting the good fight and #shrink ‘ing the logo across the pond. Continuous improvement.

20 quid for a singular ball marker… is it time to start the conversation?

The golspie pro shop is going to keep me up at night. I think they might go weeks without selling a singular item. Might need to begin the conversation with Guggenheim #restructuring

Birdied FOXY yesterday. Not really trying to make it a big deal about it. Pretty mundane hole if you ask me
