  • VIRGINIA MASTERS!
    Mar 11 2026
    On this episode of the Upstate Golf Guys Podcast, we recap our trip down to Virginia to compete in a two-day major at Kingsmill Resort on the River and Plantation Courses as part of the Golfweek Amateur Tour. Let’s just say… the golf didn’t exactly go the way we planned. 😅 But the trip itself was an absolute blast. I was joined by Champ Flight player Kevin DuMicich, who broke down his rounds and some of the struggles he battled through during the tournament. Even with a few bumps in the road, Kevin still managed to walk away with a huge skin worth nearly $400, proving that one clutch hole can make the whole weekend worth it. We also talked about Anthony’s rollercoaster of a tournament. Saturday felt solid and competitive—holding his own and right in the mix. But Sunday… well… let’s just say it felt like he had never swung a golf club before. Anyone who plays tournament golf knows those days can show up when you least expect them. We also had Jonni Callaway along for the trip, and he had an absolute blast. While the tournament golf kept us busy, Jonni’s highlight of the weekend might not have been on the big course—it was dominating the mini golf course at the condo. Safe to say he was lights out with the putter that night. 🏌️‍♂️ Even though the scores weren’t exactly what we hoped for, the experience at Kingsmill was incredible—great courses, great competition, and another awesome golf trip in the books. Now we’re fired up and ready for the Upstate New York season to start. If you’ve ever thought about playing competitive amateur golf, now is the time—sign up for the Golfweek Amateur Tour.

  • EPISODE 126- FEEL GOLF
    Feb 25 2026
    The Upstate Golf Guys Podcast is back and this one was a heater 🔥 RGB and I were joined by golf content creator and founder of Feel Golf, Lyle — and let’s just say… the man is building something different. Yeah, the hats are absolute fire. The Feel Golf drops have been turning heads, and the brand is growing fast. But what Lyle is building goes way deeper than apparel. He’s using his platform to bring awareness to men’s mental health — something that doesn’t get talked about enough in the golf space (or anywhere, really). His honesty, his journey, and his purpose behind the content are what truly separate him. On this episode we dive into: His growth as a content creator and brand owner The vision behind Feel Golf How he’s trying to grow the game in a completely different way His experience at the PGA Show and some of the creators he connected with And his golf game… because let’s not forget — the guy is a legit plus handicap. Lyle can flat out stripe it. He’s traveled all over the world playing some of the best courses out there and even shared a few of his favorites with us. When someone who’s seen that much golf talks architecture and vibes, you listen. And then of course… we wrapped it up the only way we know how — with the spitfire questions. Rapid, chaotic, and always a good time. The biggest moment? Lyle dropped some news about a brand new series he’s launching in the next few weeks. He says it’s going to be BIG. Different than what anyone else is doing right now. If you know Lyle, you know he’s not chasing trends — he’s trying to shift culture. We appreciate Lyle hopping on with us and we’re rooting for him as he continues building Feel Golf and pushing the game forward. Be sure to follow Lyle and Feel Golf on all social platforms @feelgolf so you don’t miss what’s coming next.

  • EPISODE 125-LOUISIANA GOLF ROAD TRIP SERIES (bboisf_golf )
    Feb 11 2026
    This week we’re joined by Brandon Boisfontaine — Louisiana golf content creator, course and food reviewer, and all-around grinder in the golf space. Brandon’s not just doing it for the clicks either… he’s a neighbor and good friend of Uncle P (Paulie), and we dive into how that relationship started and how it’s helped shape his journey in content creation. We talk Louisiana golf, from course conditions to must-hit food spots, and Brandon breaks down why he’s absolutely dialed in with his blue dot putter (yes, we went there). He also shares details on his new venture with the Under Armour Junior Tour in Louisiana, helping grow the game at the grassroots level. With LIV Golf coming to Brandon’s home course, we get his take on what that means for the area, the course, and the buzz around Louisiana golf. Brandon also opens up about the real grind of content creation — the consistency, the behind-the-scenes work, and what it actually takes to keep pushing when the algorithm isn’t always your friend. And of course… we wrap it up with our classic spitfire questions, because it wouldn’t be our show without putting the guest on the hot seat. Golf, food, content, and real talk — this one’s a fun ride.

  • EPISODE 124 - RICKY REILLY
    Feb 4 2026
    This week we were joined by Ricky Reilly, one of the top adaptive golfers in the country and currently ranked second nationally in the short stature division. Ricky is a name you’re going to keep hearing, especially when it comes to competitive adaptive golf. He regularly competes against Chaz, with the two always battling back and forth, and Chaz was most recently seen competing in the Internet Invitational. We got into Ricky’s journey growing up with dwarfism and what it was like navigating sports at a young age. Before golf took over, Ricky was a true athlete, with hockey being his go-to sport. That competitive mindset never left. Ricky puts the work in, living on a golf course and playing seven days a week, constantly grinding to elevate his game. As a fellow Upstate NYer, kind of, coming out of Syracuse, New York, Ricky talked about the pressure that comes with competitive golf, the mental side of tournament play, and some of the rules he would like to see changed in the game. It was an honest conversation that shed light on adaptive golf, competition, and what it takes to perform at a high level. Huge shoutout to our sponsors for making this episode possible.

    We’re fired up to welcome Steven Durand to the podcast! Steven is a PGA Golf Coach and one of the most respected instructors in the game today. He was named Regional Coach of the Year in 2023–2024 and followed that up by earning 2025 Coach of the Year, a true testament to the impact he’s making both on and off the course.
