Episode 15 kicks off with Bryson's latest YouTube creation, a $100,000 golf challenge taking place at his own house. Golfers compete head-to-head until one player earns the opportunity to take on Bryson for the money. If Bryson wins, one of his subscribers gets the $100,000.

Jake loves what Bryson has done with YouTube and social media. Brett sees it a little differently, comparing Bryson to the P.T. Barnum of golf and questioning whether all the spectacle and side projects have prevented him from reaching an even higher level as a professional golfer.

That leads to a bigger conversation about Bryson's career, LIV Golf, his two major championships and what his future in professional golf could look like.

Brett even compares him to John Daly, another incredibly talented golfer who knew how to attract attention well beyond what happened on the scorecard.

Then Jake and Brett get back to their own golf.

For once, they both played charity scrambles without each other.

Brett played at Hiland Golf Club in Queensbury in a tournament benefiting Ronald McDonald House, while Jake played at Cronin's Golf Resort in Warrensburg for North Country Ministry.

Both teams managed to finish under par, but the bigger stories came from some of the creative contests along the way.

At Cronin's, Jake encounters a putting contest where golfers attempt to win bottles of liquor and wine positioned around the green. He also comes away with an idea for future charity tournaments: giving each team one opportunity to move up and play a shot from the red tees.

Then Brett presents a golf dilemma that needs to be settled.

During a straightest-drive contest on a short par 4, Brett hit his drive beyond the designated contest line and onto the green. The ball was directly in line with the flagstick.

Does that count as the straightest drive?

Brett decided it did.

He took the cooler.

Then it's time for the Rule of the Day, and this one comes from personal experience.

Brett calls it the "Angry Golfer Rule."

After being hit into multiple times during a casual round, Brett finally lost his patience and hit the other group's golf ball back toward them. He later learned that interfering with another player's ball in that situation can result in a penalty during competitive play.

The lesson is simple: Don't let your anger cost you strokes.

Finally, Jake and Brett look ahead.

The 2025-26 US Am Tour season has come to an end and the 2026-27 season is getting underway. That also means this episode marks the end of Season 1 of Divots & Skins.

Season 2 will bring more US Am Tour golf, more players and guests, more course reviews and plenty of indoor golf as winter approaches in Upstate New York.

The guys also talk about what's coming at The Luxury Box, including a new teaching bay designed to analyze your swing and help golfers work on their games throughout the offseason.

Season 1 is in the books.

Season 2 is coming.

Jake and Brett also discuss the growing world of YouTube golf, where personalities, production and massive prize pools are changing how fans experience the game.

Then it is time to recap their latest US Am Tour Albany Region event at Wahconah Country Club in Massachusetts. They talk about the mountain views, changing weather, difficult greens, elevation changes and the small creek that winds through several holes. It turned into a memorable day for both golfers, but you will have to listen to hear exactly how it ended.

The Rule of the Day explores the different relief options available when a ball is unplayable in a bunker. They also answer a viewer’s scramble question about whether a team can change its selected ball after everyone has already played the next shot.

The episode wraps with a conversation about Brookhaven, The Luxury Box, upcoming events and why golfers of every handicap level should consider trying a flighted amateur tour.

Jake and Brett talk through their early rounds at Brookhaven in Greenfield, N.Y., a course that has already forced both of them to rethink club selection, course management and the urge to pull driver on every tee box. They also get into birdie tracking, breaking 90, Jake’s chip-in birdie and why golf can feel like one big Rubik’s Cube.

The episode also covers a few practical golf rules, including embedded ball relief and whether stakes can be moved when they interfere with your swing.

Then the conversation shifts to the growing world of YouTube golf, including Grant Horvat, the Bryan Bros and the launch of the Your Golf Tour. Is it good for the game? Is it entertainment, competition or a potential circus? Jake and Brett have some thoughts.

A little course strategy, a little rule talk, a little ranting about pace of play and plenty of amateur golf honesty.
