Episode 26: Would you rather...? (Shocking answers)

What's the most important club in the bag — and would you give up bombing it 350 down the middle just to never miss a putt again? 🏌️This week on Sandbagger Sessions, Cole and Stefan turn a random radio segment into the ultimate Golf Would You Rather showdown — and it gets surprisingly heated. Augusta once or the Old Course every single year for life? Twenty PGA Tour wins or one major? Jack Nicklaus's legacy or Tiger's money, fame and chaos? Eleven impossible golf questions, almost zero easy answers — and a few where Lou Stagner's data settles the argument for good.Before the main event, the guys get into Stefan's brutal PGA debut (an 86 he'd rather forget), Russell Henley's clutch finish at the Charles Schwab, whether Ludvig Åberg is honestly playing like a C-minus right now, a slow-play penalty that cost a real shot at a title, and Bryson's new Gemini-powered AI coaching app — the future of the golf swing, or just a great salesman at work? Plus a full US Women's Open preview from Riviera and this week's picks (including a side bet on the wives' round that they can absolutely never find out about).Stefan is a PGA of Canada professional, so you get real swing and stats insight buried under way too many tangents — exactly how you like it.👉 Hit subscribe, drop YOUR Would You Rather answers in the comments, and tell us who got each one right. ⛳▶️ Timestamps0:00 – Cold open & welcome to Episode 260:41 – Stefan's first PGA event: an 86 at Castleview, a tee shot that nearly took out a spectator, and what tournament golf teaches you8:54 – PSA: please yell FORE (Scott takes one straight to the forehead)9:40 – Pro V1 giveaway winner + housekeeping10:47 – Charles Schwab Challenge: Russell Henley's clutch closing birdies & Eric Cole's costly 9th hole14:43 – Ludvig Åberg — all that hype for a C-minus right now?17:25 – LPGA Shoprite: Céline Boutier wins & a slow-play penalty that actually stung19:26 – The side-saddle wizard at Cataraqui + the most painful putt in NCAA history22:09 – Bryson, Gemini AI & the future of golf coaching (genius tool or sales pitch?)28:49 – US Women's Open preview at Riviera (+ the genuinely gross origin of "waste areas")35:30 – The picks: Women's Open, the Memorial & a secret bet on the wives' round41:49 – 🎙️ MAIN EVENT: Golf Would You Rather42:30 – Bomb it 350 down the middle every time OR never miss a 10–20 footer?45:50 – Play Augusta once OR the Old Course every year for life?48:50 – One golf trip forever: Scotland OR Australia & New Zealand?51:50 – 20 PGA Tour wins OR a single major?54:45 – Know your exact number on every shot OR one do-over per round?55:50 – Caddy for every major champion for a year OR make one PGA Tour cut?58:13 – Scratch golfer forever OR a 4-handicap who can still improve?1:01:00 – Be the biggest Sunday choker ever OR completely forgotten?1:03:20 – Summer of your life then quit OR the Charles Barkley swing forever?1:05:00 – Jack Nicklaus's career OR Tiger's (money, scandals and all)?1:08:40 – Live with LIV OR erase it from golf history?1:12:07 – Wrap-up: Barry from Copetown Woods next week + Canadian Open & Kingston's own Ashton McCullough#golf #golfpodcast #wouldyourather #pgatour #uswomensopen
