The secret to a better round isn’t a new driver - it’s a better vibe. Canabzy (can-uh-bizzy) keeps you relaxed, focused, and fully in the moment so every swing feels smoother. Once you try it on the course, you’ll never tee off without it.

HIGHS IN THE 70s! 37 DAYS UNTIL THE MASTERS! SPRING IS HERE!

Secured a partnership with Mizuno!!! So pumped. More to come in April, but we’ve already got the content strategy essentially planned out.
I’ve partnered with local travel company, BirdieEscapes, to plan the ATL Golfs Fall Golf Trip. Hoping to announce the details in April.
In talks with Phoenix Coffee Roasters and their line of Cold Brew.. nothing official yet, but I’m hopeful!
I’ve recently decided that I don’t want to wait until 2027 to launch a V2 of the Golf Pass. So I’m starting to think through how to make it bigger and better. One thing that is for sure - it will be styled like a yardage book because it’s going to be PACKED with value.

Thanks for reading the 10th newsletter!
Crazy it’s already been 10...
Another milestone was hit on February 27th - our 1 year anniversary of starting ATL Golfs. A huge thank you for supporting this newsletter. Ya’ll are the ones that make it valuable enough to sell advertising and continue to fund ATL Golfs. Who knows… maybe one day it’ll shift from my side-hustle to my main gig.
Until then, please share with your friends!

PS: I’m trying to come up with more ways to make the newsletter more fun/engaging. If you’ve seen other newsletters do this well, please send the ideas my way! [email protected]
