Jeff played two rounds this weekend and both were a disaster. Not his game (okay, also his game) but the people around him. Six guys showed up to one tee time at White Pines. Speakers blasting. Groups skipping holes on a packed Saturday. A five and a half hour round.

Jeff and James make predictions, name favorites, call out the new members who do not know the rules yet, and make a bet for the first event. The trash talk is already at peak levels.If you have an opinion on COVID golfers, course etiquette, or how to break a tie for first place in an amateur golf league, hit us in the comments or DM us on Instagram.New episodes every Monday.
