Who is Gus?

I don’t like to bore with details so I’ll keep it brief.

I’m 28 years old, I live in London with my fiancé and ply my golf on the various offerings a tube or Lime bike ride away.

I was born in Northern California, but have called England my home for the last decade. I’ve always been obsessed with sports from a young age, a trait I inherited from my Grandfather, and I’ve also had a love of poetry and story telling, a trait I inherited from my other Grandfather.

Something I’ve always struggled with is what I want to do with my life, be that professionally or otherwise, but when I was stood on the 14th tee box at Howth Golf Club in 2022, having not swung a golf club in close to 7 years… it all clicked. This was what I wanted to do.

I don’t mean go pro, at a 12 handicap, that seems unlikely, but to be around the game. To play the game. Explore all it has to offer. That is what Gus The Golfer is all about. Telling stories about the game we all love, and I hope some or a few of them resonate with you.

This is in endeavor I’ve set out on with zero expectations, it’s something for me, a mantra I need to remind my ever unsatisfied brain of before starting anything like this.
