@coldmillerlatte I want to see the runway to convert covid golfers to pickleball

[SoCon Locks, M.D. @SoConLOCKS]

Shrink the game back to an atom.

More data points in the WSJ piece about rising popularity of golf:
- Rounds played up 14% in 2020 and increased almost every year since (4.8% decline in 2018 and 1.5% rise in 2019 for context)
- Junior participation 58% higher in 2025 vs 2019
- Off-course participation up 63% vs 2019
- Gen Z household spending on golf grew the most of all age groups
- 19M Americans only play off-course, big runway to convert
- Industry consolidation has cleared out the weaker players (Nike, Adidas's TaylorMade, Golfsmith all gone)
- Acushnet $GOLF nearly tripled over 6 years, Callaway $CALY in the article) up 50% since announcing Topgolf sale

@BeaverTailCreek You fly private there too?

[SoCon Locks, M.D. @SoConLOCKS]

Really shows how coddled all these tennis players are with all the heat chatter.

88 and cloudy. Get over it

@UKcoachbrooks Did y’all play pebble beach too? I can’t tell.

[SoCon Locks, M.D. @SoConLOCKS]

I’ve decided I am going to be good at golf again. Will update sunday night on how this ages.

Second best course in the highlands. #notbiased

[Ben Pearl @benpearlgolf]

Since this concept is hard for people, here’s a lesson in how business works.

I buy a golf grip for wholesale price.
Let’s say it’s $5.
I sell and install that grip for $12.
Gross profit $7.

Costs you don’t see.
Tape, grip solvent, rent for my building, insurance for my building, utilities for my building, the time it’s taken me to be efficient installing a grip so that it takes me less than 2 minutes from start to finish, the taxes I pay on the $7 profit from selling that grip.

That $7 profit turns into $3-$4 profit very quickly.

You can insert any product into this scenario.

You idiots complaining about the price of things are either uneducated or broke.

[SoCon Locks, M.D. @SoConLOCKS]

@cashflowgolfer Sounds like you should really be charging more for your grips.

[SoCon Locks, M.D. @SoConLOCKS]

@EgbersTom Agree. 1 and 18 are my weak holes. 2-17 are just class

[SoCon Locks, M.D. @SoConLOCKS]

Course: 9.9/10. It’s my favorite course i’ve ever played. There are maybe 2 weak holes, but the rest are a fantastic.

Membership: very humble, kind, and welcoming

New Clubhouse: An unfortunate mistake. I know they “needed it”, but no frills is what makes Scotland golf special

[Tom Egbers @EgbersTom]

@SoConLOCKS Can we get an across the board review of Dornoch?

[SoCon Locks, M.D. @SoConLOCKS]

@cashflowgolfer Settle down now, Ben. Deep breaths.

[SoCon Locks, M.D. @SoConLOCKS]

20 quid for a singular ball marker… is it time to start the conversation?

[SoCon Locks, M.D. @SoConLOCKS]

Ladies and Gentlemen, the Suber tracker has a pulse.
