Tales from the First Tee returns with a heat-soaked episode full of Southern expressions, golf course characters, and the peculiar relationships we form with our equipment. Your host Rich Easton shares stories from the sweltering fairways of Charleston where even alligators have more sense than the golfers braving triple-digit temperatures.

• Team play at Charleston National where all players must contribute for success
• Mississippi native "Cloudy Graves" and his colorful Southern expressions for every situation
• Golf etiquette pet peeves including slow play and unwanted ball handling
• Chance encounter with actor/musician Charles Esten (Outer Banks, Nashville) over bourbon
• Playing with Dr. Lester "No Surprises" Payne and discovering golf clubs have feelings
• The importance of recognizing heat exhaustion symptoms while playing summer golf

Subscribe to Tales from the First Tee and follow our adventures from beautiful Charleston, South Carolina, to golf courses around the world.
