This episode of Chasin’ Birdies is our latest and greatest since our last drop in February. It’s been a rough start to the year for our boy Pepe, but hopefully the tides are turning, and we can all embrace the golf season that is finally upon us.We open up the episode and pick up right where we left off. The 2026 Pine Needles Invitational at Pine Needles, Mid-Pines, and Southern Pines just wrapped up, and we have some stories to share from that. Plus, a good friend of the pod just launched his new clothing line, IDAKA, and Bash was a part of that initial launch by acting as a model. The story sparks humor as it relates to how and why.We turn the episode over and get into the Pelican Member Guest that Pepe just played in. The highlight of this episode is the ‘shit’ story…yes. The story can actually put you in tears. We hear from Pepe and their unsuccessful bid at defending the championship in 2026.The episode turns over, and we get into some golf talk with The Players kicking off. We run through the list of who we think has the best chance of winning. Naturally, March Madness is here, and NFL free agency is kicking off.We round out the episode with more banter and talks surrounding our 2-Man event in August. Tune in, share, and hear from the boys as we chop it up and look ahead to more guests here in Chasin’ Birdies.Key Links:Visit redvanly.com for great golf apparel now repped by Chasin’ Birdies.Stay tuned for more info on winning custom headcovers from WinstonCollection.comOur Tap-in segment is sponsored by Bettinardi GolfPartners with Nemacolin Resort.-----Follow Chasin’ Birdies on Instagram @chasin_birdies.Chasin’ Birdies is hosted by Ryan Bashour and Jonathan Pepe.
