Sub70 Golf's Rise: Custom Clubs, DTC Innovation & Supreme Service13 Dec 202500:32:37

Welcome to the Fore Golfers Network/Michigan Golf Live Podcast Ep 507 - Sub70 Golf's Rise: Custom Clubs, DTC Innovation & What Golfers Really Need

Sub70 Golf has become one of the most talked-about direct-to-consumer brands in the golf equipment space—and this episode of Fore Golfers Network breaks down exactly why.

In this conversation with Host Bill Hobson, Sub70 Golf CEO Jason Hiland shares key insights behind the founding and growth of Sub70 Golf, which launched in 2015 after the successful sale of Diamond Tour Golf. Built on experience, not guesswork, Sub70 entered the market with a clear focus on custom-built golf clubs, authentic branding, and elite-level customer service, all produced in Sycamore, Illinois.

Key highlights from the episode include:

  • Why the direct-to-consumer model works in golf when customization and trust are prioritized

  • How Sub70 uses expert interpretation of club specs, not just raw data, to fit golfers properly

  • The difference between what tour professionals demand (trajectory control and a consistent "window") versus what amateur golfers actually need (playability and confidence)

  • How Sub70 initially gained traction through irons and wedges—and why the driver category is now rapidly growing

  • The role of social media, customer feedback, and industry awards in building credibility without traditional OEM marketing

  • How Sub70 has evolved its product lines, branding, and service model since launch

The discussion also looks ahead, with plans for future collaboration focused on testing, education, and transparent evaluation of Sub70 equipment—bridging the gap between technical performance and real-world playability.

This episode is a must-listen for golfers interested in custom club fitting, equipment innovation, and understanding how modern golf brands are built outside the traditional OEM system.

Harbor Town Reborn: Davis Love III & The Lowcountry Legends of Hilton Head03 Dec 202500:37:03

Welcome to the Fore Golfers Network/Michigan Golf Live Podcast Ep 506 - Harbor Town Reborn: Davis Love III & The Lowcountry Legends of Hilton Head

In the finale to our fall special travel-series, host Bill Hobson takes listeners inside one of the most celebrated destinations in American golf — Hilton Head Island — for an exclusive, behind-the-scenes look at the grand reopening of the iconic Harbor Town Golf Links.

Recently restored under the leadership of World Golf Hall of Famer Davis Love III, Harbor Town is more than a PGA TOUR stop; it is a masterpiece of Pete Dye's architectural brilliance, revered by players and fans for over five decades. In this episode, Bill sits down one-on-one with Davis Love III to unpack the philosophy behind the restoration — not a redesign, not a modernization, but a careful, reverent restoration of Pete Dye's original intent. 

From there, the episode expands into the broader magic of Hilton Head and the Lowcountry. Bill talks with Sea Pines Resort leaders, architectural experts, and regional tourism voices who reveal why this stretch of South Carolina coastline remains one of the most beloved golf-travel destinations in the world. You'll learn what makes Lowcountry golf unique, how the region maintains its charm with strict environmental and architectural standards, and why players flock here year after year.

The story continues with a stop inside the famous Harbor Town Lighthouse Museum, hosted by longtime curator Nadia, whose 30+-year career inside the iconic structure has made her a living encyclopedia of local history. Her personal story — from Yugoslavia to Hilton Head — beautifully illustrates why this destination resonates so deeply with visitors from around the world.

Whether you're planning a warm-weather golf escape, dreaming of walking the same fairways that PGA TOUR players rave about, or simply craving a deeper appreciation for one of the game's greatest venues, this episode delivers inspiration from every angle.

The Story of Hanna Golf with Jared Doerfler12 Sep 202500:33:17

Welcome to the Fore Golfers Network/Michigan Golf Live Podcast Ep 497 - The Story of Hanna Golf with Jared Doerfler

We're talking with a most intersting and inspiring guest: Jared Doerfler, founder of Hanna Golf and creator of the widely followed Perfect Putt Newsletter.

Jared's journey into the golf industry is anything but traditional. What began as a passion project while finishing his MBA—writing about golf trends, equipment, and business—has grown into the Perfect Putt Newsletter, with over 11,000 dedicated subscribers. 

But Jared's entrepreneurial path didn't stop at newsletters. Inspired by his own putting struggles, he sketched out his vision for a better putter. Working with his brother-in-law on CAD designs and collaborating with friends to machine prototypes, he transformed that sketch into reality. The result: custom-engineered Hanna Golf putters, designed with unique features like a forward center of gravity, wide/deep milling for responsive feel, and high MOI for unmatched forgiveness.

Today, Hanna Golf produces nearly 1,200 putters annually, with 70–80% of sales happening online. Remarkably, the company has sold nearly 800 putters in just over a year—without traditional marketing or outside investors.

In this conversation, Bill and Jared dive into:

  • The growth story of the Perfect Putt Newsletter

  • The inspiration and innovation behind Hanna Golf putters

  • How family values, customer feedback, and manufacturing precision guide Jared's decisions

  • The challenges of balancing production capacity, innovation, and independence

  • Why Jared is determined to keep Hanna Golf small, focused, and authentic

If you're a golf enthusiast, entrepreneur, or simply someone who loves hearing how dreams turn into reality, this episode delivers both inspiration and insight.

Welcome to the Fore Golfers Network/Michigan Golf Live Podcast Ep 493 - PARdon Me: 50 Years of Golf, One Hole At A Time w/ Author Joe Bronson

 A conversation with author Joe Bronson as he brings his passion for golf to life in PARdon Me, the third installment in his celebrated book series. Drawing from decades of experience both as a dedicated amateur golfer and a seasoned observer of the sport, Bronson delivers a captivating collection of personal stories and reflections on the ever-challenging game.

Bronson takes readers on a journey through iconic courses, unforgettable rounds, and his musings on the evolution of golf-from the golden days pre-pandemic to the new boom in popularity. With chapters covering the highs and lows of playing alone, battling slow play, and the challenges of professional tournaments, Bronson offers a unique perspective on what makes golf such a special game. Whether recounting his memorable Pro-Am experiences-including a memorable round with the legendary Arnold Palmer-or reflecting on his local rounds at famed courses like Pebble Beach and the royal and ancient St. Andrews, Bronson's wit, insight, and enduring love for the game shines through.

PARdon Me is not just about golf; it's about life, perseverance, and the endless pursuit of improvement, making it a must-read for every golfer-duffer, amateur or seasoned pro.

Golf in Mesquite - Featuring Wolf Creek, Conastoga, and Eureka21 Nov 202500:48:49

Welcome to the Fore Golfers Network/Michigan Golf Live Podcast Ep 505 - Golf in Mesquite - Featuring Wolf Creek, Conastoga, and Eureka

Join Michigan Golf Live TV host Bill Hobson on a spectacular golf road trip to Mesquite, Nevada—one of America's most underrated destination golf regions. Just an hour north of Las Vegas, Mesquite delivers a rare combination of beauty, challenge, and exceptional value that keeps golfers returning from around the world. In this special feature, Bill takes you inside three pillars of the Mesquite golf experience: Conestoga Golf Club, Wolf Creek Golf Club, and the Eureka Resort & Casino.

Each stop showcases a different dimension of what makes Mesquite a bucket-list trip for golfers of all skill levels. We begin at Conestoga, a course celebrated for its Old West character, dramatic rock formations, amphitheater-style homesites, and an exceptionally thoughtful course design.

Gary Banks crafted a routing that blends the landscape, community, and golf experience seamlessly—providing both challenge and playability. With multiple tees stretching to nearly 7,500 yards, Conestoga offers forgiveness for beginners, strategic options for mid-handicappers, and pure exhilaration for skilled players. Stunning visuals, target-golf elements, and memorable holes highlight the front nine and set the tone for Mesquite's unique desert style.

Next, we visit the world-famous Wolf Creek, a course so dramatic that many golfers assume the photos are fake. They're not. Wolf Creek's unfiltered landscapes, extreme elevation changes, deep canyons, and risk-reward tee shots create an unforgettable experience. From 150 yards and in, precision is key—this is target golf at its most beautiful and demanding.

For many international golfers, Wolf Creek is a pilgrimage, thanks in part to appearing in videogames and global golf rankings. Every guest leaves with stories they can't wait to share. After long desert rounds, nothing beats coming back to a friendly, perfectly-sized home base. The Eureka Resort & Casino, an employee-owned property, prides itself on hospitality, continual improvement, and making a Mesquite golf trip accessible and affordable.

Vacation packages combining rooms and rounds deliver some of the region's best deals. The intimacy of the resort offers a peaceful retreat after adrenaline-filled rounds at Wolf Creek, Conestoga, CasaBlanca, and the many nearby courses stretching toward St. George.

World-class challenge. Remarkable value. And unforgettable hospitality.

Global Golf Adventures & Rankings with Jason Deegan and Jason Lusk20 Jul 202500:46:25

Welcome to the Fore Golfers Network/Michigan Golf Live Podcast Ep 487 - Global Golf Adventures & Rankings with Jason Deegan and Jason Lusk

 We welcome two of the most well-traveled and respected voices in golf media: Jason Deegan, Managing Editor at GolfPass.com, and Jason Lusk, Director of Travel and Rankings for Golfweek. Together, they have played, photographed, and reviewed thousands of courses across the globe, bringing an insider's perspective on the world's top golf destinations and what makes each course memorable.

In this episode, host Bill Hobson sits down with Deegan and Lusk during a rain delay at Cragun's Resort in Brainerd, Minnesota, where Tom Lehman recently completed a 27-hole redesign. The conversation dives into the stories behind their extensive travels, how golf course rankings are created, and why certain destinations consistently stand out to both casual players and golf purists.

Deegan shares how his Michigan roots and early career, including coverage of major events like the Ryder Cup and PGA Championship, propelled him into a global golf career. He opens up about "pinch-me" moments—like standing on a tee box in New Zealand—and the joy of uncovering the artistic elements of golf course design around the world. Lusk, with his deep experience in both editorial design and travel coverage, reveals the behind-the-scenes work that goes into Golfweek's trusted rankings. He also recounts humorous and jaw-dropping travel stories, from playing unexpected pro-ams alongside Fred Funk and Bernhard Langer to battling travel nightmares with lost clubs and endless airport delays.

The episode also highlights the importance of authenticity in course rankings. Both guests emphasize that their lists are based on genuine golfer reviews or expert panels, not advertising dollars, and why rankings should be seen as conversation starters rather than absolute truths.

Deegan and Lusk reflect on the future of golf travel and share their personal dream destinations. Whether it's the rugged charm of Ireland, the pristine beauty of New Zealand, or iconic American destinations like Bandon Dunes, these experts know where the next great golf adventure awaits.

Listeners will come away with:

  • Insights on how golf media has evolved from print to digital.

  • Travel tips and hacks learned from decades on the road.

  • A better understanding of what makes a golf course truly exceptional.

  • Inspiration to explore both local gems and bucket-list destinations.

Whether you're a seasoned golfer planning your next trip or simply love the stories that make golf unique, this episode is a must-listen. Tune in and discover the passion, humor, and expertise that Deegan and Lusk bring to every fairway they visit.

Lee Abbamonte's Wild Global Golf Adventures17 Nov 202500:39:26

Welcome to the Fore Golfers Network/Michigan Golf Live Podcast Ep 504 - Lee Abbamonte's Wild Global Golf Adventures

In this unforgettable episode of the Fore Golfers Network Podcast, host Bill Hobson welcomes Lee Abbamonte — a true global citizen, travel icon, and golf adventurer. Known as the youngest American to visit every country in the world, Lee's journey from Wall Street executive to world-traveling storyteller is nothing short of remarkable.

Lee's story begins with a simple study abroad trip to London, which sparked an insatiable curiosity for the world beyond the trading floor. What started as a personal challenge — visiting 100 countries before turning 30 — soon transformed into a mission to see every nation on Earth. By the age of 32, he had done just that, earning a place in travel history.

But Lee's adventures didn't stop there. Along the way, he discovered a new passion: golf. Whether teeing it up on lush fairways in Puerto Rico or makeshift greens in remote corners of the globe, Lee's golf journey is as extraordinary as his passport stamps. During the pandemic, he set a new goal — to play as many of the top public courses in the U.S. as possible. Fast forward to today, and he's played more than 790 different courses, from bucket-list classics to hidden gems.

In this episode, Lee shares some of his wildest and most inspiring stories. You'll hear what it was like to play golf in Kabul, Afghanistan, with armed guards protecting him from nearby conflict, and how he navigated chaotic situations like a riot in Algeria and a gunfire-filled border crossing from Egypt to Libya. Through it all, Lee's passion for discovery and connection shines through — proving that travel, like golf, is as much about the journey as it is the destination.

Lee and Bill also discuss the cultural bridges golf can build around the world, how the sport gives travelers a unique way to connect with people, and why every golfer should pack their clubs no matter how far they roam. Lee also offers a glimpse into his upcoming travel plans — including golf expeditions to India and Sri Lanka in 2026 — and shares hints about his upcoming book and potential documentary projects.

If you've ever dreamed of combining your love for golf with global adventure, this episode will fuel your wanderlust and inspire you to take the next swing — wherever it might lead.

Caddie Tales & Life Lessons: Behind the Bag at Whistling Straits with Mark Milatz28 Apr 202500:34:31

Welcome to the Fore Golfers Network/Michigan Golf Live Podcast Ep 470 - Caddie Tales & Life Lessons: Behind the Bag at Whistling Straits with Mark Milatz

In this powerful and insightful episode, host Bill Hobson sits down with Mark Milatz, author of Caddie Tales and host of the podcast by the same name. Together, they take you inside the ropes at Whistling Straits, sharing untold stories from the caddie's perspective — from sore feet and stolen shoes to the emotional rollercoaster of dealing with high-strung golfers.

Mark opens up about the physical demands of caddie life, the importance of investing in quality gear like Hoka shoes, and the potential recovery benefits of ice baths. He and Bill also explore the mental side of golf, highlighting how the game reflects deeper truths about a person's character, expectations, and attitude toward life.

They tackle tough topics, including inappropriate behavior toward female staff, and the challenges of managing pace of play while dealing with strong personalities on the course. Mark's journey is as inspiring as it is raw — a former pastor who battled addiction and found redemption through golf, storytelling, and authentic human connection.

Caddie Tales isn't just about golf — it's about growth, respect, recovery, and relationships. Whether you're a player, a fan, or someone curious about the lessons behind the game, this episode offers wisdom, humor, and heart.

🎧 Tune in as Bill and Mark remind us why the next shot — in golf and in life — is always the most important one.

Welcome to the Fore Golfers Network/Michigan Golf Live Podcast Ep 469 - Dean Snell on Snell Golf, Tariffs & Tour-Tested Performance.

We sit down with Dean Snell, Founder and CEO of Snell Golf - the Official Ball of MGL - to dive deep into the world of golf ball innovation, pricing strategy, and manufacturing challenges in today's global trade climate.

Dean brings decades of experience from the golf ball industry and shares his unique insights on how Snell Golf delivers premium-quality balls without the premium price tag. From bypassing expensive TV ads to skipping pro endorsement deals, Snell Golf focuses on what matters most: performance and value for everyday golfers.

We discuss the impact of global tariffs, the recent closure of a major manufacturing facility, and how Dean and his team are navigating supply chain hurdles to maintain quality and inventory through Q2 2023. Dean also explains how golfers should choose balls based on their 7-iron distance—not just swing speed—and how Snell's Tour Test Pack is helping players find their perfect fit.

Dean and Bill also talk pricing, with the MTB Prime 4.0 and MTB Prime X 3.0 offering performance rivaling tour-level balls, all while saving you money. Whether you're a scratch golfer or a weekend warrior, you'll walk away with new knowledge to help elevate your game.

Bill Hobson sits down with Jim Corbett, widely known as Mr. Golf Etiquette, to dive deep into the essential etiquette every golfer—especially new ones—needs to know. With decades of experience as a caddy and a lifelong passion for the game, Jim shares his personal journey and why golf etiquette is more than just tradition—it's about respect, pace, and preserving the enjoyment of the game for everyone.

From the practice green to the clubhouse, this conversation emphasizes how small choices—like respecting music volume or minimizing practice swings—can significantly enhance the golf experience for others. They also touch on one of the biggest complaints in golf today: pace of play. Jim offers simple, practical tips for speeding up your round without compromising your game, like limiting time spent looking for lost balls and being intentional with your shots.

You'll even hear a few hilarious and heartfelt stories, including hole-in-one tales and reflections on the "7 Habits of Highly Effective Golfers."

Scotland, Sportswashing And The Love of Golf - Joel Beall26 Mar 202500:42:26

Welcome to the Fore Golfers Network/Michigan Golf Live Podcast Ep 466 - Scotland, Sportswashing And The Love of Golf - Joel Beall

In this in-depth interview, host Bill Hobson talks with author Joel Beall about his groundbreaking new book, Playing Dirty: Rediscovering Golf's Soul in Scotland in an Age of Sportswashing and Civil War. Beall takes us inside the battle for the soul of golf as the PGA Tour and LIV Golf wage war over the future of the sport, with billions of dollars, reputations, and the game's traditions at stake.

Beall's journey leads him to Scotland, golf's birthplace, where he examines whether the sport's original values still hold strong amid the chaos of modern professional golf. He explores the impact of sportswashing—where powerful financial forces, including Saudi-backed LIV Golf, are reshaping the game—and questions whether the PGA Tour is truly the defender of golf's legacy or just another self-serving entity.

This eye-opening discussion uncovers the greed, politics, and shifting allegiances defining golf's civil war. Beall provides a candid look at what's happening behind the scenes, the consequences for players and fans, and whether golf can ever return to its roots.

Whether you're a die-hard golf fan or just fascinated by the intersection of sports, money, and power, this interview is a must-watch!
