The ProShow with Keith Stewart

Lean on Me - #230

As we approach November, that means Veterans' Day will soon follow. The PGA HOPE (Helping Our Patriots Everywhere) program continues to grow nationwide and that sustained success is due in large part to HOPE Ambassadors like Garret Hrynko. 
Garret is a veteran who possesses a servant's heart. You won't believe what he has done in support of our country's veterans. For starters, he rode a bike from Oregon to Virginia! 
Now Hrynko works with his local PGA HOPE chapter in New Jersey to engage our non-active military with golf. Alongside PGA Professionals, Garret grows the game and partners with veterans in search of some hope of their own. 
Garret's story is a testament to his willpower and wonderful caring personality. This interview will make you smile and feel inspired. Hrynko's tale is a common one and thankfully men and women are out there engaging our servicemen and women.

What makes the Presidents Cup special
Different golf formats

Life is Good - #226

Each episode of the ProShow entertains in many ways. This week, we hosted three guests.
Boston sports writer Jim McCabe has covered golf for decades. From his days at the Boston Globe, to Golfweek and then working for the PGA Tour he's seen it all until now. 
His macro perspective on the current state of affairs in golf is interesting. Together we discussed:
LIV in Boston
A couple stories of the year
His new venture
Golf's foggy future
Jim's a wonderful storyteller and on air he just knows how to captivate an audience. Speaking of captivating, our other two guests wrote history this week. Christian Emmerich and Owen Egan made back to back double eagles (albatrosses) on Sunday. Both young men play for the Holy Cross Men's Golf Team and in the same group in back to back shots they managed to do something that has never been accomplished before in golf. 
Their story is really fun and to hear both of them recount the action is priceless. Make sure you listen to the end of the show to catch their entire interview.
As always, the ProShow is golf's most entertaining hour!

It Ain’t Me - #225

I asked our guest to describe his 2022 in one word. His response, "intentional." The leading points winner on the 2022 APGA Tour, Johnson has two wins this season. His latest victory was in their Tour Championship a couple weeks ago. 
From a small kid just walking by a golf course to shooting rounds in the 60's, Kamaiu's journey is one that amazes us all. In advance of his fall run of tournaments, he had a couple minutes to catch up with us. Along with Keith they covered:
His crazy Vegas win
How he became intentional
My My Foundation update
Handling life as a new father 
His future on tour

Live Your Life - #224

This week finds Keith down in Atlanta covering the Tour Championship. The last week of the current season plans to be very competitive. The course is a tough test for the final leg of the playoffs. While on location, Keith pulls in a NJ Coach who knows a little about Atlanta. 
Keith Jarvis is a cool guy. A golf coach by trade this former tour professional loves to surf as much as play golf. He's a big believer in experiences and his teaching exemplifies it. The Lead Instructor at the Golf Channel Academy in Oakland, NJ, Keith can really coach. He's certified in over ten disciplines of the game from TPI to US kids. 
Jarvis opens up as a lifelong learner and his passion to help others is palpable. Just a quick question gets him going down the rabbit hole of getting better. Alongside your host Keith, the two not only talk instruction, but the bigger world of golf as well. 
It's interesting to hear his take on the LIV approach, LPGA and a whole lot more. Jarvis spent twenty-five years in Atlanta and his knowledge of East Lake is great. Together with Keith, the two handicap the weekend and what may happen. This conversation cruises by, make sure you check it out!
