Golf didn’t show up early in Luke’s life — it found him later, somewhere between fatherhood, the pandemic, and a single round that changed everything.

In this episode of This Round’s on Me, we sit down with Luke Principato, a Richmond-based golf dad and the voice behind the Instagram handle @get_legs__nestle, to talk about discovering the game in your 30s, chasing single digits between diaper changes, and why golf becomes more meaningful when community enters the picture.

Luke shares the round that hooked him for good, how lessons and practice reshaped his game, and how Instagram turned a personal golf journey into a global connection with golfers from Richmond to Finland. It’s a conversation about improvement, patience, family, and keeping the game fun — even when the scores don’t always cooperate.

PGA Professional Bryan Jackson grew up playing Ocean View Golf Course in Norfolk, Virginia, before walking onto the golf team at James Madison University. After chasing pro golf through mini tours and side jobs, Bryan pivoted into teaching — a move that unexpectedly led him inside the NASCAR circuit as a traveling golf instructor.

In this episode, Bryan shares how showing up, building trust, and sticking to his own coaching philosophy opened doors to working with elite athletes and some of the biggest names in racing. We talk putting, practice, learning, and why feel and speed matter more than positions — plus music, public golf, and who he’s excited to work with now.

⛳ This Round’s on Me explores the stories and people that make golf more interesting.

In this episode of This Round’s on Me, we sit down with Travon Willis to talk about the moments that quietly shape a professional golfer’s journey.

We trace his path from Virginia Union to the professional ranks — the mental shift it took to treat golf like a 9-to-5, the confidence that followed, and what it really feels like to register for your first event as a pro. Travon opens up about belief, solitude on the road, daily routines, and why trusting the work matters just as much as talent.

From methodical practice days to life lessons learned along the way, this conversation pulls back the curtain on what it takes to pursue the game at the next level.
