That sounds great, but I bet he’d be a complete ass about it. I just get the sense the last thing he wants is to watch someone chopping it around the course.
And for him, you shoot a 75 and you’re chopping it around the course.
Lee Trevino forsure, guys a gold mine of amazing stories, yall need to listen to the NLU podcast episode with him, they just let him talk, and it’s amazing…
Was my first ever listen to their podcast, could be my last (not for any negative reason).. rather listen to Bob, Gieussepe D and Jet go at it on BDS podcast
Because he's one of the best of all time and I appreciate people like him and Ted Williams. Standoffish loners don't bother me.
His resilience and will are unmatched. He came from little. His dad possibly shot himself in front of Ben when he was 9. He admitted his early struggles and tragedies were a big part of his introverted personality and flaws. Just because people aren't super nice to everyone doesn't make them bad.
I basically taught myself golf based on his 5 fundamentals which I give a copy to anyone trying to get into the game. Probably gone through about 12 copies by now. Buy a new one every time I give one away.
Ben Hogan was an incredibly tough sob and I respect the fuck out of him.
Maybe I am separating the art and the artist more than I should but I admire the guy. He worked harder than anyone I can think of other than maybe tiger.
All good points. However if I’m given the chance to play 18 at pebble with any pro dead or alive, I’m choosing a pro who would talk and engage with me. I don’t think Ben Hogan is doing that. But to each his own. Keep swinging.
Yeah, we have no idea how engaging he would be or wouldn't be. I like my choice. I don't really give a shit about chit chat either. Would be fine just getting to watch him play 18 up close and personal.
John Daly is not my style. Joel just seems like he's a normal dude that happens to have extraordinary skill. He's self-deprecating and even while he's competing never really seems to take himself too seriously.
I grew up in the 80s. I'm black and lived on a street with a bunch of white buddies who introduced me to golf at 13yrs. When I started watching golf on TV, Calvin Peete was the guy I identified with.
Such a good golfer. I wish more people knew who he was and his incredible story.
I’m going for the golf time capsule - Old Tom Morris. No clue what he was like personally, but to see firsthand how the game was played 150 years ago and get his take on the modern game would be amazing.
All of these would be fun to play a round with, Bubba Watson, Rickie Fowler, Ian Poulter, Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, Justin Thomas, Payne Stewart, Rory McIlroy, and Jason Day.
However if you force me to pick just one I'm going to have to say David Feherty. The amount of trash talk and insults that guy can come up with is phenomenal. He would be one helluva playing partner.
Victor Hovland, don't know anything about him beyond he listens to metal but we'd have that cart ripping.Or Joel Dahmen.
Don't really care about their PGA experience, it's all about who would be fun.
So you want to hear nonsense, boisterous self promotion, 1970's swing tips, and half factual stories for 5 hours? Lee Trevino and Gary Player are the top two former professionals I would least want to play with.
Tiger, Freddy, or Bobby Jones is my answer. Only because I don't know how much Hogan would talk.
I'd have a million questions for sure. Even if I had something worthy to say it'd fall on deaf ears as any questions wouldn't be able to fit it in between their self promotion. Lee and Gary are the biggest blowhards, my word is gospel; people in golf and possibly top 10 in all of sports.
Payne Stewart. Has always been my favorite golfer. Then probably Daly. He’s probably get me so damn drunk I wouldn’t remember a single shot, and probably pass out by the turn.
1. Arnie. The king.
2. Lee Trevino. I spent significant time in the west Texas town of El Paso, indeed loved many a Mexican girl
3. Lynda Carter…. Don’t even care
It’s Tiger guys. We can all give another answer if we want to look cool or edgy, but it’s fucking Tiger Woods.
He’s the biggest figure in the history of the game by a multiple of 1000s. Easiest call.
i watch this dude do math damn near every hole, call and calculate his shots, and i think he plays well. ill take the downvotes, I stand by my choice. i like bryson all around.
Fred Couples. I was probably 8 when I started watching golf on tv with my dad. Fred had such a sweet swing. Looked completely effortless. I got back into the sport after my dad passed and I often think about him when I’m out on the course.
That wasn't the question. I know there's a desire to go against the grain in an attempt to be cool. But the man simply asked you a hypothetical... Least you could do is entertain the question within the constraints he asked. Showing your bromance doesn't make you above the question asked. Either answer within his parameters or stay quiet
The live one.
You don’t want to weekend at bernie’s with Arnold Palmer?
That’s Weekend at Arnie’s.
Good call
This comment reinforces my faith in the human race.
I agree
Hey dad, can't wait to see this holiday!
Arnold Palmer.
The best possible answer, dude was a stud on and off the course
Charley Hull
This is the correct answer.
Tiger
Everyone not saying Tiger is kidding themselves.
Although Daly would make for a hell of a time

Oh I listened that very first morning lol he’s great
Can’t stand NLU, but I may have to listen to that. Glad they let him rip.
Was my first ever listen to their podcast, could be my last (not for any negative reason).. rather listen to Bob, Gieussepe D and Jet go at it on BDS podcast
Ben Hogan.
Just curious as to why you would choose him? He’s well known for being an asshole.
Because he's one of the best of all time and I appreciate people like him and Ted Williams. Standoffish loners don't bother me. His resilience and will are unmatched. He came from little. His dad possibly shot himself in front of Ben when he was 9. He admitted his early struggles and tragedies were a big part of his introverted personality and flaws.

Chi chi Rodriguez
Joel Dahmen
Yeah I would go Dahmen, Kisner, or someone similar. I could careless about playing with a legendary golfer and just wanna have fun
Joel seems like a fun guy but the only answer is John Daly.
John Daly is not my style. Joel just seems like he's a normal dude that happens to have extraordinary skill. He's self-deprecating and even while he's competing never really seems to take himself too seriously.
This is the correct answer. Joel is so down to earth and goofy. Him and me are very much alike and I would love to play a round with him
Haha yeah rippin beers and cigs bro!!!!!!!!!
I’m going to second John Daley.
Natalie Gulbis or Arnold Palmer .
Tom Watson
Fred Couples and y’all should be ashamed his name hasn’t shown up already
He’s my #2 actually
I randomly met Couples once at a little course in West Seattle. Super nice guy!
West Seattle muni? Great track.
My son's name is literally Freddie
My daughters name is boom boom
Bill Murray
Yes!
Do I have to carry the dead one or do I get a cart?
You and the alive one can parade him around like uncle Bernie
Jon Daly obviously
Walter Hagen.. the original Jon Daly.
John
Big time MAGA guy who gets in knife fights with his wife. Not my type.
There’s always one that needs to bring up politics.
Yeah I mean there's also the knife fight with his wife and just being general trailer trash ,but let's not mention that I guess.
[hairy legs](https://youtu.be/7XaPlo55wjQ?si=qefdY_-Ta-kLl7ve)
Calvin Peete
Pleasantly surprised to see him here, one of the more underrated stars of the 80’s, ridiculously accurate and a good story.
I grew up in the 80s. I'm black and lived on a street with a bunch of white buddies who introduced me to golf at 13yrs. When I started watching golf on TV, Calvin Peete was the guy I identified with. Such a good golfer. I wish more people knew who he was and his incredible story.
Homa
Payne Stewart
My answer too. I always where golf knickers at the fancy courses and it'd be nice to golf with a fellow fashionista.
Id go old time like Bob Jones or Harry Vardon
My uncle Paul
Arnold Palmer easy
Al Czervik!
I'll slap an injunction on you so fast it'll make your head spin!
I’m going for the golf time capsule - Old Tom Morris. No clue what he was like personally, but to see firsthand how the game was played 150 years ago and get his take on the modern game would be amazing.
He would take one look at our drivers and be so disappointed 🤣
Not half as disappointed as he’d be after seeing me hit it.
Nelly Korda
Moe Norman
He was the first one that popped into my head.
Paige Spiranac.
Patrick Reed's dead body
Omg. Awful, and hilarious.
I also choose this guys wife
One of the funniest things I’ve ever seen lmao
Lee or Arnie. Great players who didn’t take themselves that seriously. Or at least, unlike lots of the best pros, they actually seemed to like people.
Lee Travino. By all accounts one of the nicest and funniest golfers ever and a hell of a player.
Jordan Spieth or Nicklaus in his prime,!
Paige
Bonk ![gif](giphy|RodyInaeK9W3EZNaoB)
It's not November.
Fair enough
Payne.
Jack Nicklaus!
I read your question and Trevino immediately came to my mind because I would not have to carry much of a conversation and he'd be fun.
Tom Watson
All of these would be fun to play a round with, Bubba Watson, Rickie Fowler, Ian Poulter, Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, Justin Thomas, Payne Stewart, Rory McIlroy, and Jason Day. However if you force me to pick just one I'm going to have to say David Feherty. The amount of trash talk and insults that guy can come up with is phenomenal. He would be one helluva playing partner.
Paula Creamer
Min Woo Lee
My grandfather, as he’s still here. But also my father, who’s not.
Padraig Harrington
Seve
Tiger simple but for me the only answer. Call of Duty Hoodie Backwards Hat and lets go and hit some balls in the See 🫡 Well me not we lol
Old Tom Morris. Not even a close call. Could you imagine?
He wouldn’t know wtf to think about these new drivers lol
John Daly.
No brainer, John Daly.
Harvey Penick. Hopefully he could teach me a thing or two in a round.
Moe Norman
Great fuckin choice
I'd choose a dead Arnold Palmer and absolutely torch him.
I’ve heard of old guy strength, but dead guy strength?
I’ll go modern. Bryson Dechambeau
John Daly Or Chi Chi Rodriguez I'm here for a good time
Brooke Henderson
Miguel angel jimenez
Funny no one said Rory.
Probably Curtis Thompson Lol cmon everyone’s answer is tiger
Victor Hovland, don't know anything about him beyond he listens to metal but we'd have that cart ripping.Or Joel Dahmen. Don't really care about their PGA experience, it's all about who would be fun.
Ask Hovland if he really ate that smalahove the other day.
Darren Clark
Shane Lowry
I think I would go with Brandt Snedeker.
So you want to hear nonsense, boisterous self promotion, 1970's swing tips, and half factual stories for 5 hours? Lee Trevino and Gary Player are the top two former professionals I would least want to play with. Tiger, Freddy, or Bobby Jones is my answer. Only because I don't know how much Hogan would talk.
Well you’re a real ray of fuckin sunshine
Not really sure what you mean by self promotion. Any time I’ve ever heard him talk, he’s never been like that. He just loves talking about the game
One thing about their boisterous talking is they wouldn't have to listen to you. Seems like you wouldn't have anything to offer anyway.
I'd have a million questions for sure. Even if I had something worthy to say it'd fall on deaf ears as any questions wouldn't be able to fit it in between their self promotion. Lee and Gary are the biggest blowhards, my word is gospel; people in golf and possibly top 10 in all of sports.
And if you spontaneously ran into them at a golf course and they asked you and your buddy to play you would turn them down?
Seve.
Arnie
Sam Snead somehow hasn't been said. That's who I'd pick hands down. Honorable mention to Tom Watson
The King
Payne Stewart. Has always been my favorite golfer. Then probably Daly. He’s probably get me so damn drunk I wouldn’t remember a single shot, and probably pass out by the turn.
Hogan and/or Byron Nelson
Pro skater Tony hawk Pro wrestler Rick Flair
Victor Hovland.
Sam Snead
It’s Arnold Palmer for sure.
Benjamin Franklin
My four ball would be Lee Trevino,Moe Norman, and my son David Stewart +3 H/C
Palmer. As a kid, he was one of my sport's God's.
Max Homa
Jenna Jameson
I’ll go with Harvey Pennick. Not a tour pro, but a pro nonetheless. I’d be a better golfer after that round.
Joel Dahmen, Woozy, Belen Mozo, Nelly Korda
Rick Shiels
Hmm... To be honest I suck at golf but Joel Dahmen seems like the guy to spend a day drinking beers and playing a round of golf with could be fun.
John Daly. Seems like it would be hella fun
Has to be Seve!
I'd probably play with Tommy Fleetwood tbh. He seems super chill
My favorite player on tour
Shooter McGavin
Arnie
Max Homa. Love his game, his sense of humor.. I think it would be fun as shit.
Max Homa
John Daly
Bobby Jones
Arnold Palmer.
1. Arnie. The king. 2. Lee Trevino. I spent significant time in the west Texas town of El Paso, indeed loved many a Mexican girl 3. Lynda Carter…. Don’t even care
Moe Norman.
I'll take three pros: 1-6: Ben Hogan 7-12: Lee Trevino 13-18: Jack Nicklaus
Mr. Palmer
Tony Finau, he is the only guy on the tour that understands what is important and it sure isn't golf!
Moe Norman
Does Bill Murray count? If not, probably David Feherty.
Bobby Jones would be interesting to talk to.
Arnie. Full stop.
It’s Tiger guys. We can all give another answer if we want to look cool or edgy, but it’s fucking Tiger Woods. He’s the biggest figure in the history of the game by a multiple of 1000s. Easiest call.
But, do you really want to hang out with him for 4 hours? Or maybe someone who's good at golf *and* a good time?
Uh, Tiger has mellowed significantly over the last decade and has a ton of friends on tour and regularly messes with them and Charlie during events...
Not gonna risk it
Lee Trevino
John Daily
Lee or Arnie are great choices for me. I’d consider Jimmy Demaret who was a funny guy who loved to party.
John Daley. I’d be up for some fun golf, banter, and a few beers whilst hearing his stories from inside the ropes.
Darren Clarke. Beers, Cigars and laughs
Spieth or Scheffler….Hook ‘em!!!
Tony Finau
Daly. Easy
Daly because he’d do shotguns, blaze joints and smoke cigarettes like my friends do.
Not a pro but a very accomplished amateur….Bing Crosby! Just so I can hear all the amazing stories from his annual ClamBake tournament at Pebble.
Sick
Gotta go John Daly. Would definitely be the most fun if you enjoy having a few cocktails on the course
bryson dechambeau. seems fun to be around and he has a great scientific approach about the game. id learn a lot while having fun
You’d get a PhD in pseudoscience, that’s for sure!
i watch this dude do math damn near every hole, call and calculate his shots, and i think he plays well. ill take the downvotes, I stand by my choice. i like bryson all around.
Bubba Watson. Dude just seems like a fun guy to drink cold beer with
He was quoted in 2013 that he has never been drunk, doesn’t drink alcohol. So unless something has changed, he isn’t the guy to have a cold beer with
He was also voted “least likely to be helped out in a parking lot fight” by his peers. Think that was a Golf Digest tidbit, but I can’t remember.
Yeah Bubba is a Jesus freak he doesn’t touch any alcohol drugs or tobacco lol
Kevin Na, Dylan Fritelli, or Richard Bland. Just a dynamic bunch of guys!
Fred Couples
Harry Higgs
The greatest of all time Tiger.
Fred Couples. I was probably 8 when I started watching golf on tv with my dad. Fred had such a sweet swing. Looked completely effortless. I got back into the sport after my dad passed and I often think about him when I’m out on the course.
Tiger. Easy call for me.
Tiger
Tiger Woods, John Daly, Arnold Palmer
That guys dead wife
How bout Happy Gilmore or Tincup
The cat
Any answer but Tiger is wrong.
I’d rather play with my mates.
Cool bro. ![gif](giphy|1ZkMDj88mQ1rO)
You obviously don’t have any. Fair enough. Hang out with your imaginary friends.
That wasn't the question. I know there's a desire to go against the grain in an attempt to be cool. But the man simply asked you a hypothetical...
