About this episode
They were can’t-miss kids. South Carolina standouts. PGA Tour hopefuls. Pioneers of golf’s YouTube era. But success is rarely a straight line. Alongside their feature in The Golfer’s Journal No. 34, George and Wesley Bryan sit down with TGJ managing editor Travis Hill to finally tell their whole story from the patio at Solina Golf Club, where it all began. They talk about the early days at Solina under their dad’s watch, the mini-tour failures, the trick-shot breakout that kept the lights on, and Wesley’s rapid climb to the PGA Tour. They also open up about their financial rock bottoms, the creative bets that paid off, and the growing tension with the PGA Tour as they carve their own path on YouTube. It’s the full arc of the Bryan Bros rise, fall, and rise again, told in their own words. Editor’s Note: This podcast was recorded in May 2025.
