Two golfers trade stories and sharpen ideas with Jay Delsing, from UCLA glory and Q-School grit to equipment’s impact on strategy, classic courses, and what makes golf a true merit test. Respect, authenticity, and good shots under pressure carry the day.
• UCLA superteam lineup and competitive culture
• Q-School format, mental fatigue and rookie-year lessons
• Golf as meritocracy and the reality of cuts and pay
• Arnold Palmer’s etiquette lesson and leadership
• Why golf unites strangers better than other sports
• Persimmon and balata versus modern drivers and balls
• Rollback debates, V-grooves, bifurcation for elite play
• Protecting classic architecture from modern distance
• Shotmaking, feel, and the lost art from the rough
• Jay’s radio show format and storytelling focus
