We are joined in this special episode by adaptive golf standout Ricky Reilly, and a first-time guest and fellow U.S. Adaptive Open competitor Jason Hasty. Jason shares his incredible journey—from growing up with a limb difference, discovering golf during the pandemic, to qualifying for and competing in elite adaptive tournaments across the country. His story is raw, motivating, and a testament to resilience.

We dive into Jason’s origin story in adaptive golf and how a chance moment watching Golf Channel changed his life. The deep camaraderie, humor, and mutual support among adaptive golfers. Behind-the-scenes memories from the U.S. Adaptive Open—from media growth to rowdy dinners and “losers’ loops.” Ricky and Jason’s hilarious back-and-forth, including a now-iconic "four-putt" moment in front of spectators. The momentum adaptive golf is gaining—bigger sponsors, more media coverage, and international events like the Cairns Cup and Phoenix Cup. Jason’s heartwarming outreach work with seniors and his plans to grow the adaptive community through clinics and future tournaments.

Whether you're a golfer, fan, or someone looking for a powerful story of perseverance and purpose, this episode hits every note. The laughs are real, the friendships are deep, and the mission to make golf more inclusive has never been more clear.
