episode 3: A 'Shoe'-In For More Distance - Bob Winskowicz
Chasin’ Birdies is more than what you do on the golf course. We like to hear what people are doing off the course, too. Today’s episode features Bob Winskowicz, the founder of SQAIRZ golf shoes. You may have seen SQAIRZ endorsed by Sir Nick Faldo or worn by Sepp Straka on the PGA TOUR. Regardless, the story of how SQAIRZ was born is fascinating, and by wearing these shoes, you may just gain some extra yardage off the tee.
Hey, y’all! Want more distance? Try a pair of SQAIRZ! We all want more distance off the tee, or in general, but have you ever equated greater distance to the type of shoes you wear? We haven’t either until we interviewed Bob Winskowicz, the founder of SQAIRZ.
We open up the interview and ask Bob how he figured out shoes can equate to more distance? Bob explains the logic behind his findings after a random business meeting led him to the driving range in his squared-toe dress shoes. He noticed his balls were flying further. What he did next is chasin’ birdies on a new level..Bob explains the science behind his findings and how he successfully launched the shoe company, SQAIRZ. With a partnership in place with Sir Nick Faldo, SQAIRZ was in position to take off. We ask Bob how he goes about getting Tour players to wear his shoes. He simply finds up and coming players to wear and bets on them in a big way. Prime example is Sepp Straka, winner of the 2022 Honda Classic.
We turn the table and ask Bob some personal questions like what he does in his spare time and what’s in store for the future of SQAIRZ. Hearing an innovative entrepreneur talk is always interesting. If nothing else, this interview is extremely interesting and could help you find a few extra yards!
We end the episode with our standard tap-in segment where we ask Bob 4 questions that demand his quick witted response. Be sure to check out SQAIRZ on-line and thank you for listening to another fantastic episode! We hope you enjoy it.
