Round #16

The Internet Invitational has generated over 22.2 million views in its first week, but why is everyone so invested? This week, we're discussing what makes internet golf so entertaining, whether professionals should be allowed to participate, and whether watching a group of semi-decent golfers compete is actually more enjoyable than watching the best players in the world. Matt shares why he thinks the event gives fans something professional golf has been missing: personalities, hot mics, trash talk, cart cams, and full-course coverage.We also celebrate Andrew Novak's FIRST individual PGA Tour victory at the VidantaWorld Mexico Open, break down Matt's picks for the Internet Invitational's biggest standouts and disappointments, and officially welcome the arrival of tinkering season.With daylight savings behind us and winter golf approaching, it's time for more range sessions, equipment adjustments, and figuring out how to fix a golf game that probably wasn't that broken to begin with.We're The Bad Caddies Podcast — not bad at golf, just bad caddies.New episodes every Thursday at 8 AM.

Can ChatGPT help you build a better golf bag? We explore how PGA Tour card winner Ross Steelman used AI to help source and build his clubs, and Peyton shares how he's been using it for his own equipment builds, shaft comparisons, swing-weight calculations, and more. From finding budget-friendly equipment to making smarter adjustments, could AI be the ultimate golf caddie?We also break down Eugenio Chacarra's win at the DP World India Championship, Patrick Reed's runner-up finish, Rory McIlroy's third-place result, and the latest TGL roster moves ahead of the December 27 season opener.How much can AI actually help your golf game, and where should you be careful about trusting it?We're The Bad Caddies Podcast — not bad at golf, just bad caddies.New episodes every Thursday at 8 AM.

We also discuss the course's tight layout and why players are reaching for 1-irons and 2-irons instead of drivers.Then it's time to talk equipment. Mini drivers, zero-torque putters, long irons and high-lofted fairway woods have all been trending, but what's next? Peyton thinks hybrids are due for a comeback, while Matt believes the golf ball rollback could change the way golfers approach equipment throughout the bag.Who's got the better prediction?Tune in for another round of golf talk, gear debates, and the occasional bad caddie take.
