Grilling At The Green

Golf, food and fun. Sounds like a great combination! Grilling at the Green hosted by Jeff Tracybrings all of that and more for your listening pleasure.Jeff’s love of golf prompted him to create Grilling at the Green several years back and the show has been going and growing strong ever since. Jeff started playing in middle school with wretched old clubs in the bottom pasture. (An errant tee ball to the noggin left a permanent impression on one of his childhood friends.) Jeffs got better clubs now, but still, be careful where you stand when he’s hitting off the tee!Grilling at the Green is not about fixing your swing, correcting your bad putting or how to get out of the sand better. It’s really about people in and around the golf world. Players, both amateur and pro. Authors, TV hosts, teachers, celebrities, weekend warriors, (hackers for short)manufacturers and club house icons make the guest list. Yes, we talk about golf but also cover travel, food fun and life.. Everyone on the s

  Amanda Jacobson, Top Oregon Amateur

  Oct 3, 202638 min

  Host Jeff and guest Amanda Jacobs, a top amateur golfer from Portland, Oregon. Jeff and Amanda discussed her recent performance at the USGA Mid-Amateur Championship in New Jersey, where she reached the Sweet 16 before losing. They covered her preparation process for tournaments, including travel logistics and her mental approach to competitive golf. Amanda shared her equipment preferences, using Ping clubs and an Adele custom-fitted putter, and explained why she chose not to pursue professional golf despite opportunities like playing in the LPGA Portland Classic. The conversation also touched on her family's golfing background, her competitive rivalry with fellow amateur Laura Tennant, and her advice for young golfers about making the sport fun rather than pressured.

  Rick Ward, Former NFL player -Golf Fitter and Teacher

  Sep 26, 202640 min

  I speak with Rick Ward, a former NFL punter who transitioned to a career as a golf fitter and instructor, and that transition and his fitting expertise is the central theme of our conversation. We discuss his NFL background, his severe knee injury and later knee replacements, and how those experiences influenced his approach to golf and coaching. Rick and I explain the value of one-on-one club fitting, the role of TrackMan data, and the need for correct loft, lie, and shaft selection tailored to the individual. We caution listeners about impersonal big-box fittings and sales incentives, and we outline practical factors to watch for when choosing a fitter or a golf ball. Rick describes his fitting work at Rock Creek and with Srixon and invites golfers to book fittings through rlwardfittings.com. We also address equipment trends, distance gains, and the importance of choosing proper tees and balls so the game remains enjoyable.

  Gene Parente from Golf Labs

  Sep 19, 202643 min

  I assert that golf technology can overwhelm players, and that well designed tech should recede into the background so players can focus. We discuss how excessive devices produce paralysis by analysis and impair performance on the course. I emphasize that less is more while playing, and that data and devices are more appropriate during practice and fitting. We explain that proper club fitting typically yields more benefit than simply buying the most expensive gear, because fit reduces mental load and improves consistency. I note that golf ball selection matters most inside of 120 yards, and that urethane tour balls will more often hold the green on good shots. We recommend testing short game feel with a few balls and seeking a professional fitting if the game is important to you.

  Tom Coyne, Golf Course Owner, Golfer and Writer - Afterhours Encore

  Sep 16, 202617 min

  We focus on Tom Coyne's management of a golf course and his assertion that professional golf has become increasingly removed from everyday golfers. I describe how my father introduced me to golf and how links golf in Ireland changed my life. Tom argues against rolling the ball back and supports bifurcating equipment to protect the game for ordinary players. We discuss the current messy state of professional golf, its entertainment value, and the widening gap between elite earnings and weekend play. Tom shares personal details about books, music, retirement plans to play and read more, and a last meal choice of pizza. We close by urging listeners to play golf, enjoy the game, and be kind.

  Tom Coyne, Golf Course Owner, Golfer and Writer - Encore

  Sep 12, 202636 min

  I begin with the principal point: Tom Coyne took charge of a nearly one‑hundred‑year‑old nine‑hole course in Sullivan County and now co‑owns and operates the club. I speak with him about running daily operations, from mowing the fairways to managing payroll and the tiny pro shop. We describe how a new logo and merchandise became a vital revenue stream for the club. Tom outlines plans to add a driving range and a putting course to increase local access to golf and to revive the community. I also cover his editorial work with the Golfers Journal and his forthcoming book, Of Course Called Home. We invite listeners to learn more, buy a nonresident membership, or support the club through the website.
