Today is Sunday. Maybe you're enjoying a nice cup of coffee, or doing some last-minute Christmas shopping. But I have a pretty good idea what Patrick Koenig is doing right now. Who's that? He's the man who played 580 golf courses in 2023. Yes, 580. He says it changed his perspective on life. I was skeptical on how this was even possible until I read the full story. Check it out. ⬇️

Last Starter: 88% of readers knew that Nike does NOT make golf clubs. They used to though. And when they did…well…they were interesting ⬇️

❄️ Winter Rules

For most of us, it's too cold outside to golf. But, is that just a lame excuse? Golf Digest published an article in 1954 about the "Snobirds," a group of guys from Bronxville, NY, who played golf through snow and frigid temperatures. Other than a break for World War I, they only missed two rounds. The two rounds? Once when it was so icy one of the guys shot an 82, and another time when visibility dropped to 10 feet. These guys were insane.

I like golf, but not that much. Golfing in the snow just doesn’t seem fun to me. But, to each their own. If you want to check out the full story, here it is. ⬇️

🧠 Trivia at the Turn

Answer to last week's trivia: Jack Nicklaus was nicknamed "The Golden Bear."

🤨 Did you know?

Phil Mickelson is naturally right-handed but plays golf left-handed because he learned by mirroring his right-handed father's swing. This earned him the nickname "Lefty" despite being right-handed in everything else he does.

But forget the drives and irons, he’s known for his short game. In this video, he breaks down the 3 keys to play like him around the greens. ⬇️

😇 Bucket List Golf

🍻 The Parking Lot

• 11 weirdest rules scenarios of 2024 (for example, 4 stroke penalty)

• Rory Mcilroy takes “shot” at LIV Golf and Team USA over Ryder Cup payments

• How to build an at-home golf simulator for less than $1000

• Marco Penge, DP World Tour golfer, banned over “genuine and honest mistake”

When I say we are hot gambling, we are HOT. Last week, we took Chargers -3, they won by 7. Easy moneyyyy. Let’s keep the train moving.

🏈 Bogey Bois Pick: Texans +3.5 against the Chiefs

Usually not a great business decision to bet against Patrick Mahomes. And I’m fully prepared for the Texans to lose 55-7. However, I think the Chiefs are due for a loss. And this week is the week. Book it. See you on Wednesday 🚀
