About this episode

“When you're in do-it-yourself mode, the last thing you want to do is drop everything to pick up that one-parter tool that you need. That's where my Lowe's rewards and my Lowe's pro rewards come in. Place your order and Lowe's handles the rest.”From the transcript

3 Putt Bogey is a golf podcast hosted by Chuck Bryant and Adam Pranica, two mid handicappers who are just good enough to know exactly how bad they still are. The name says it all: one great shot, followed immediately by the kind of self-inflicted disaster only a mid-handicap golfer can produce. That's the whole sport, really, and this show lives in that gap.


Every week, Chuck and Adam break down their most recent rounds, dig through the bag, and try to actually get better — which is harder than it sounds when social media serves up an endless, contradictory firehose of tips, drills, and gear you're told you absolutely need. They'll talk about what's actually working, what's total crap, and what happened when they tried it on the course anyway.


Expect gear talk, course recaps, golf movies and video games, rules debates, questionable gambling picks, and a healthy amount of self-inflicted misery, all in service of two guys trying to shave a few strokes off their game and laugh about it along the way.

And I'm Adam Pryanaka of the Greatest Generation and Greatest Trek. We decided to start a golf comedy podcast because we're both big golf lovers and we wanted to spread that joy and it's called Three Putt Bogey. It's coming from the perspective of golfers who are sometimes good enough to hit two great shots in a row but almost never good enough to hit three. And a Three Putt Bogey is kind of the purest expression of that. Every golfer knows what that's like. Yeah, I mean that's kind of the show in a nutshell. Obviously we're going to talk a lot about the game of golf that we love so much. How absurd it is and how fun it is and how just you know it's vexing and frustrating. But more than anything, just how much we love the greatest game in the world. We love it anyway.

We're putting these out every Friday morning for your weekend golf routine. Yeah, Adam, I wouldn't hit a shot the other day in front of the card girl. Let's talk about the meltdown a little bit because at this level it is so much less about making birdies. Yeah. And so much more about avoiding doubles and triples. It's the curse of where I am right now which is truly great shot, truly terrible shot. It's weird how much it changes from shot to shot at this point. This is a show about sharing our experiences on the golf course and how absurd and funny they can be. Yeah, and you know one thing for sure we're going to do every week is our personal golf journeys because we come from a couple of different places. I'm here in Atlanta playing basically weekly casual rounds with some of my oldest friends and shooting like in the low to mid 90s still. And I'm playing a lot of club tournament in Los Angeles which for some reason hasn't managed to take all the fun out of my game.

We're trying to make the golf podcast we want to see out in the world. Exactly. I would listen to this show if I wasn't me. And that's what 3PotBogie is. It's 3PotBogie everybody out every Friday. You can find it on the iHeart podcast app or wherever you get your podcast. So just to paint the picture here you went to a driving range with a golf club covered in saran wrap and painters tape. Yes, yes, yes. Did you take pictures of this?
