Good morning…

The spring cycling gear is out and I have just spent a small fortune over on DSTNC (link and discount code above for my readers). The collections from th E brands are fantastic.

I saw this yesterday and laughed…the luxury economy took a twist I did not see coming…toupees are the newest flex.

Onward…

My golf theme for venture investing continues to grow.

Yesterday. ‘Pro Shop’ raised $20 million. They are the producers of Netflix’s Full Swing. Season 2 is good and Ellen told me it helps her understand why Max loves the game so much. I am following tis closely because it so interests me.

Obviously, the Grass League (Social Leverage Fund 4) continues to gain traction and support as the first big best amateur golf tournament is coming up in April at our course:

The league has sold SEVEN franchises (there are 54 teams that will eventually be sold in the league). Social Leverage is Team Canada (Tom and I are from Toronto) and am excited about our team ‘The Hat Tricks’…

Another very cool company in the golf space that has raised venture capital and is growing fast is Whoosh.io. They have created a beautiful and powerful operating system for private golf courses and have plans to enter the public course market. I have been a small personal investor from the beginning and long ago was a lead investor in GolfNow.com which has ruled the public tee time reservation world for almost two decades. I feel disruption is coming and overdue.

Finally, my son loves LA Golf and I am testing out some shafts and going with max to see the factory in Anaheim tomorrow. They have big plans and hilarious, bold marketing which I am a sucker for…

Finally, The fashion changes coming to golf inclusing ‘off course’ is still early days. I am always watching this space. Larry David was sporting the old but cool Grayson brand in the latest Curb Your Enthusiasm.

Have a great day.
