episode 9: Influencin’ Birdies - Hailey Ostrom
We’re back this week on Chasin’ Birdies with Hailey Ostrom. The social media influencer has done more than just chase birdies on the course. She’s amassed a social media following that allows her to be one of the top influencers in the golf world. And her game is on par, too.
We open up the episode with a bit of a banter from Pepe & Bash! US Open recap, Chasin’ Birdies Two-Man talk, and what else those two have been doing since our last drop. Collectively, they’ve played 216 holes of golf in two weeks, so there’s a bit of a lot to catch up on.
We roll this into our interview with Hailey. Although golf talk will naturally exist, Hailey tells us what her workout regime is like. One of us likes to work out, too, so it was an easy topic to open up the interview with.
Hailey grew up in Bend, Oregon, and if you’re a listener of the show, you know that Bend is where Bash plays every fall in a two-man event. We chat about where her love for the game of golf came from and how she got into the game. Hailey explains to us why she had to turn Pro and what the consequences would be if she kept her Amateur status. She explains that she didn’t fall in love with golf until college.
We turn the episode over to some LIV golf talk. Hailey played in the Pro-Am and was paired with Caitlyn Jenner. She tells some stories about this experience and what some of the guys on the LIV tour told her about their reasoning for leaving the PGA Tour. Also, her pairings party story is epic!
We chat more about life, golf, and her pursuit of birdies. We turn the episode over to our Tap-In segment, where we ask Hailey some questions that demand her response. Tune in now to hear this badass episode with one badass girl. We know you’ll enjoy this one!
