In this episode of This Round’s on Me, we sit down with Bryan Jackson — Virginia native, former Division I golfer at JMU, PGA professional, and one of the most fascinating behind-the-scenes stories in modern golf instruction.
Bryan’s journey starts at Ocean View Golf Course in Norfolk and winds its way through mini-tours, teaching apprenticeships, and eventually into the wildly unexpected world of NASCAR — where he became a traveling golf instructor for some of the biggest names in racing. From Jimmie Johnson and Denny Hamlin to Michael Waltrip and Kyle Larson, Brian shares how “build it and they will come” turned into a full-blown mobile teaching operation inside the driver-owner lots. It’s part golf, part life, and part “how did this even happen?” — one of our most wide-ranging conversations yet.
