Episode Details

We’ve all played with that golfer. The one who takes three perfect practice swings before chunking the ball 20 yards. Or the guy who has $2,500 worth of equipment in his bag but refuses to spend a dime on lessons. Maybe it’s the golfer who needs an exact yardage from 40 yards out, only to leave the shot 15 yards short.

But here’s the question. Does any of that actually make someone a hack?

In Episode 15 of Splitting Fairways, Ryan “Hawk” and Jeremy “Lord Tox” tackle a subject that might hit a little too close to home for some golfers: Signs You’re a Hack Golfer.

Being a hack isn’t necessarily about your handicap or how well you play. It’s about the habits, accessories, excuses and questionable decisions that make other golfers shake their heads.

And nobody is safe, including us!

What Makes Someone a Hack Golfer?

The best part about this discussion is that there really isn’t a right answer. You can be a scratch golfer and still be a hack. You can shoot 95 and be the best playing partner in the group.

So, what gives someone away as a hack before they even take a swing?

Watch the latest episode of Splitting Fairways and then tell us which habits deserve the label and which ones are completely innocent.

Just remember, before you start pointing fingers, there’s a pretty good chance you’re guilty of at least one yourself.
