@YoungerGolf @Titleist @CGHF Sad news, indeed. I’m glad for his family he was acknowledged with his CGHF induction recently. Condolences to you, his family and his vast collegial network.

Read this @alan_bastable piece in its entirety and you’ll understand why #municipalgolf courses need the same legislation that protects parks in communities.
And for the record: why won’t golf stakeholders get behind this??

[Mike Johnny @36aday]

A comprehensive, intelligent and critical review of municipal golf from where I grew up learning the game. @cityofhamilton - let’s make evidence based decision making here, not eminence based.

[Rick Young @YoungerGolf]

On the @cityofhamilton going through another municipal golf review, this one on Chedoke. My thoughts on how politicians got it wrong…….again.

@Flagstick Ouch. That regret can sting, especially if the sun makes an appearance.

Tomorrow, August 31, we’re closing the 36 A Day store. New chapter begins and I’ve shared more on Instagram but I’m not going away! So grateful for all the support this brand has received over the years. It’s in great hands with @kandygolf now!

@adam_stanley @BobWeeksTSN @BernardBrault Two of the best in the business! Enjoy championship Sunday.

@meximenno Condolences to the Kehler clan, my friend.

[Mike Johnny @36aday]

I’m at a genuine loss for words.

[Mike Johnny @36aday]

@Flagstick @GolfChannel @NellyKorda Well said. I’m going to capture a few swings on video in an effort to seek to understand what is working. What I will say is that it is mirroring my iron swing more and that has been working well of late too. Thanks!

[Mike Johnny @36aday]

Golf tips are like ideas. They’re free and not always good. But kudos to the Vanity Index podcast on @GolfChannel who shared that @NellyKorda uses “Coca Cola” as an auditory tempo reminder. Well, that idea worked amazingly for me!

[Mike Johnny @36aday]

Proud to wear my @kandygolf shirt today in support of @CANMNT_Official I’ll be watching and cheering the lads on. #Canada #WorldCupVibes

@jliebertgolf @FairmontSprings @StewartCreek Yes, and that was another banger of a day! A special place!

[Mike Johnny @36aday]

10 years ago today. A dream 36. @FairmontSprings and @StewartCreek What a day of golf!

[Mike Johnny @36aday]

@TurfgrassZealot So sorry, Dave. It’s a loss that cuts deep.

[Mike Johnny @36aday]

@nick_saraceni @HHJuniorGolf @DurhamGolfTour @AlbertaGolfTour A hole-in-one! And for anyone not affiliated with the groups/tours identified, I’ll ask for a $50 donation to support junior golf. And thanks, I love how they turned out Nick.

[Mike Johnny @36aday]

New hat. But you can’t buy it. You can only earn it. Our Ace Cap. @HHJuniorGolf @DurhamGolfTour @AlbertaGolfTour and Hidden Lake Men’s League - free to earn. They look so good! Good luck y’all!

I respectfully disagree Rick. You’re doing well in this regard. It is us - other golf media members and lovers of municipal golf - who need to pick up this advocacy work with you.

[Rick Young @YoungerGolf]

As an industry where golf needs to do better - and where I need to do better - is communicating to city councils & parks departments that munis (done well) can be transformational investments with tremendous community upside.

[Mike Johnny @36aday]

@mvormittag PGA does something arguably better, allowing a number of teaching professionals space to play in the field. Love it.
