DAYPOM 2026 — Golf Recap

⛳ Round 1 — Deacon’s Lodge

Round 1

Deacon’s Lodge • Aug 6 • White Tees • Par 72

🅱

Team A 🏆 Winner

JC • BK • NickB • Andrew

164

F:84 • B:80

🅲

Team B

JT • NickK • Nate

169

F:90 • B:79

Team A swept both nines and handed Team B their first L before the casino even opened. NickB drove that front 9 like he was auditioning for a Beer Cart endorsement deal — four drives in the first 9 holes. JC hit back-to-back drives on 14, 15, and 17 like he suddenly remembered what competence felt like. Team B wasn’t embarrassing exactly, they just played like three guys who thought Stableford was a new protein brand. DAYPOM 2026 Official Record

F:90 • B:86

Team C won Round 2 by 1 stroke over Team A, which is so close it’s basically a tie except it’s not and JT will absolutely bring it up every time you see him for the next 12 months. BK carried the back 9 like a man who had something to prove after Round 1, and NickK’s 11 drives across both rounds suggest he believes himself to be the most aerodynamic man in the group (he’s not wrong). Team B with NickB, Andrew, and Scott played courageously into a 176 like it was a job interview they knew they weren’t getting. DAYPOM 2026 Official Record

JT led the entire field with 16 drives used, which either means he was locked in or everyone else was cooked. Probably both. NickB’s 13 drives were almost entirely in Round 1, where he basically carried Team A’s front 9 by himself. JC’s 12 drives in Round 2 tell you everything you need to know about who was pressing. TJ’s 5 drives in Round 2 are fine, TJ, we’re not mad. We’re just taking note. Certified Retardmaxx Analysis

Most Retardmaxxed

R2 Hole 5 Team A

13 combined on a Par 5. Nate drove it. We move on.

Two rounds. Deacon’s and Golden Eagle. 36 holes of Devil Ball in 2 days, pontoon boat in between, beers throughout, and exactly zero members of this crew playing at a level that would make anyone’s wife proud. Team A won Round 1. Team C won Round 2. The closest margin in DAYPOM history — one single stroke between C and A in Round 2. The golf was what the golf was. The company was elite. That’s the whole point. DAYPOM 2026 — Crosslake, MN — Aug 6–9
