I'm excited to share that over the last few months, all of us have been working hard behind the scenes to launch a golf newsletter, The Starter Shack. It's now launched in beta form for the next 4 weeks.

We want to provide a golf newsletter in a more relaxed entertaining tone that fosters the growth of a community that is inclusive and challenges the status quo.

Golf news you can read faster than it takes Bryson to read a two foot putt...straight to your inbox.

Where does your preference lie, old or new? Our team is majority old. Besides our ages, we also like the old Pebble Beach.

If you haven't seen or heard, I've taken Quite The Chap to the next level and started a new media company called Par Six Golf Media. We've been posting blog articles for the last 5 weeks...here is the latest. If you're into this sort of thing, go over to our page and give it a like!

Numerous golf options, warm days and minimal snow make Arizona a clear-cut favorite for winter golf. But how do the courses in the state stack up to the rest of the US? Are the designs just as appealing?

A new year, a new decade. New partners, new goals. A shiny new logo for our shiny new company. That's a lot of new car smell.

We're excited to kick the year off by announcing the launch of Par Six Golf Media.

Quite the Chap itself will continue to exist as a 'personal brand' but we'll be moving all our content to P6R Golf. Head over, like the page, follow along.

Thanks!

Hello Facebook! We are excited to announce the launch of Par Six Golf Media Inc. (P6R Golf). P6R Golf is a digital media agency committed to elevating golf brands through the creation of value driven content.

"A SHIFT IN HOW WE COMMUNICATE HAS CHANGED HOW WE COMPETE FOR ATTENTION"

P6R Golf was borne from the fact that we've entered an age where people are spending more time on social media than TV. We're helping golf brands build digital communities by providing value driven content tailor-made for their specific audiences. We understand engagement breeds attention.

Colby Johannson is the creative force behind Par Six while his partner brings his years of business expertise. It is in their combined passions and their love for golf that makes this a special partnership.

We are also very happy to bring Drew Harvie to our team as a Content Contributor. Drew brings his passion and knowledge of golf course architecture and design to our blog. Watch for the blog launch on January 6th!

"WE LIVE, LOVE, AND BREATHE GOLF"

The mission: to elevate golf brands with powerful content that is unique and inspiring, that captivates their customer, and stays true to their brand.

You can't go to Kokanee Springs and not go back, at least according to almost everyone we interviewed at the course. There were some golfers that were experiencing it for the first time and already had their second trip booked. For some it's like going home, some loved it so much, they made it their home.
