Host Colin Weston met Jeff MacGregor at the 2023 PGA Show where he was launching The Cart Locker - a motorized cart storage solution for any facility that wants to enhance their operations while adding a new revenue source. Fast forward two years and we finally managed to align with Jeff's hectic schedule (he is also the Head Pro at The Glendale Golf & Country Club in Edmonton Alberta Canada!) to share his startup journey on The ModGolf Podcast. https://media24.fireside.fm/file/fireside-uploads-2024/images/1/1ea879c1-a4a2-4e10-bea4-e5d8368a3c7a/l7lQWsnT.jpg Here are three key takeaways you will discover from Colin's engaging conversation with Jeff: 1. How Design Thinking Fuels Innovation in Golf: Jeff's journey with The Cart Locker highlights the importance of identifying and solving pain points within the golf industry. His innovative approach to creating a locker system for motorized carts not only addresses a logistical issue at his club but also opens up new revenue streams for golf courses. This emphasizes how innovation can lead to significant improvements in the golfing experience. 2. The Value in Building Relationships Jeff's success is rooted in the relationships he has cultivated over his years in the golf industry. His ability to leverage these connections has been crucial in gaining trust and support from other golf professionals and clubs. This serves as a reminder that networking and building strong relationships can be invaluable for entrepreneurs looking to launch new products or services. 3. Embracing Sustainable Business Practices: The Cart Locker's design and manufacturing process reflect a commitment to quality and sustainability. Jeff's decision to produce the lockers locally rather than overseas demonstrates a focus on durability and brand integrity. This takeaway encourages listeners to consider the long-term implications of their business decisions and the importance of maintaining high standards in product development. These insights not only provide valuable lessons for aspiring entrepreneurs but also inspire a deeper appreciation for the evolving landscape of the golf industry.

Alex Fourie joins us on this week's episode of Chasin' Birdies. You may have read about Alex in Golf Digest or have seen his story on Golf Channel. Today, we get a closer look at his story and his love for golf. We open up the episode and dive into his early life. After being introduced to golf at a young age, he realized the passion he had could not be stopped by anything, not even one arm. Alex continues to defy the odds in the game and has now been hired as the Head Pro at the 500-Club in North Carolina. Currently sitting as the #2 one-arm golfer in the country, it's no surprise for him to fire rounds in the 60s. He plays competitively in the adaptive open led by the USGA and aims to eventually play in a PGA Tour event. We talk about the direction golf is headed and how it impacts people from all walks of life. This humbling, uplifting episode will leave you motivated to play more and appreciate more. We end the episode with our standard tap-in segment where Alex is asked a few questions that demand his response. Tune in, share, and listen to someone who plays golf a little differently than you.

With a week left in the season, who are your Ottawa Senator untouchables? Your MVP? If you can't keep both Chabot and Chychrun, who are you keeping? Do you want Chabot for four more years at $8 million? Do you want to sign Chychrun to an extension, one that will make it worth his while to forego unrestricted free agency next year? The housecleaning begins. The Sens have fired longtime pro scouts Jim Clark and Rob Murphy. Former Senator Bobby Ryan parts company with the Sens podcast he was working on after some critical comments about women's sports. Claude Giroux is up for the Bill Masterton. What's with the bad angle goals on Joonas Korpisalo? Empty net etiquette…a lot of the hockey world says the Sens are hypocritical for getting mad at the Devils for how they put a puck into an empty net.

Today's guest is Michael Chupka, Director of Communications for Bandon Dunes Golf Resort. Michael grew up playing out of Brandermill Country Club in the Richmond, VA area. He then earned a scholarship to play his college golf at JMU. In 2007, he set off for Oregon after getting an internship at Bandon Dunes, and as fate would have, it he never left! Michael has held many key positions at the resort in the last 16 years, including Head Pro at Pacific Dunes which then led to his current role as Director of Communications for the entire operation. Michael oversees all of the great media content and press that comes out of the resort, and is closely connected with the powers that be at BDGR including the Keiser family and the golf course architects who have made their mark at Bandon. We enjoyed learning about Michael's story, and got some insight on the newly announced 19 hole par 3 course that is under construction now! Enjoy!

Brendan Walsh has been the head pro at The Country Club for the last 25 years. He came to Brookline in 1998 from Patterson Club in Fairfield, CT where he served as the head pro for seven years. Brendan has been described as generous and outgoing. It's hard to disagree. There are myriad pros throughout the country that have come through The Country Club under Walsh's mentorship. He was kind enough to let me visit with him in person in March at The Country Club where we discussed what life is like for a head pro at a course hosting a U.S. Open, how he's using his 1999 Ryder Cup experience to help him this time around, the deep tradition of amateur golf at The Country Club, the brand new routing for this particular U.S. Open and how it connects to the past.
