Thank you Golficity!
As Golficity closes in on its 300th episode, it's worth noting what makes this podcast and website such lasting and useful entities in the golf world. As with most endeavors in which we seek to improve, golf is awash with experts, equipment enhancements, and the next best thing. And though we find periodic gains in these things, we often long for somebody to really know where we're coming from, to consistently communicate to us in language we can understand, and to share our passion, frustration, and hopes for this great game. Golficity (specifically its founders and hosts, Frank and Mike Fasano) is that somebody. As amateur golfers themselves, they relate to a wide audience in an easy going, encouraging, and often humorous style. They are to golf what Click & Clack's 'Car Talk' was to automobiles. Invariably Golficity's success attracted sponsorship. Some listeners have commented on this being a distraction (though one can easily ff through the sponsor shout outs if so inclined), but in addition to making even more content possible it is the depth to which Golficity connects with its sponsors that provides some of the meaningful education for listeners. The behind-the-scenes looks into golf ball and wedge production at the Titleist plant, playing with the developers of the Shot Scope watch in Scotland, and the videoed club fittings and playing lesson with top 100 instructor Kevin Sprecher are but a few examples. Like a golfer who gets incrementally better through regular practice and playing, Golficity has improved steadily since its humble inception in 2013. In many ways they heed the major advice from Gary Player in the middle of their interview with him (episode #90): "You gotta earn it, you gotta work hard." They do so, week in and week out. Spectacular drone footage of their rounds, special guest interviews, hosting an annual virtual tournament, frequent giveaways, dissecting the mental and physical game for both beginning and seasoned golfers, commenting from PGA tournaments and events, and, above all, reducing golf's many challenges to their fundamentals in a conversational format that resonates with listeners - these are some of the things that set Golficity apart. I happened upon Golficity a year after I took up golf, as I was looking to cure my slice. That was episode 11. Since then the Golficity podcasts have filled many of my commutes, drives to the range, and time spent making breakfast for the kids on Sundays. And I'm a better golfer for it. On behalf of many golfers around the world - thank you Golficity!Read full review »
