Augusta Hooters, One-Handed Wins & the Internet Invitational Slope Debate

This week’s episode might be the most internet-golf thing we’ve ever done.

We open with real heartbreak: the Augusta Hooters has been bulldozed. For years it was the unofficial home of John Daly during Masters Week — the bus in the parking lot, the merch, the lines out the door, the chaos. We share stories from inside that Hooters, talk about grabbing a brick for history, and sadly accept that it’s probably going to turn into a bank-mattress-sandwich combo plaza.

Naturally, that spirals into:

• Jersey Mike’s vs Jimmy John’s vs Subway vs Quiznos

• Old-school McDonald’s birthday parties & underground PlayPlaces

• Hooters orders, buffalo shrimp, fried pickles & sampler platters

Then we head back inside the ropes:

• Adam Schenk winning a PGA Tour event while putting one-handed

• How wind, confidence, and scramble-guy green reading all mess with us

And finally, we break down the internet’s favorite drama:

• The Internet Invitational at Payne’s Valley

• Dave Portnoy’s “no slope” rule vs Malosi’s rangefinder

• Paige’s “stomp gate” in the rough and how it looked on camera

• The awkward body language, Ryan Whitney’s reaction, and Good Good chiming in

• B’s emotional win and the gut-punch of losing his dad soon after

• Why Internet Invitational 2 is going to be even bigger… and why Caitlin Clark getting the first invite is perfect

Hit play, buckle up, and then tell us:

👉 Is using slope in a $1.77M internet event actually cheating… or just the reality of internet golf?
