Hello and welcome! My name is Greg “Chappie” Chapman. I was lucky to retire early at the age of 63, still in good health, with the resources to travel.

Of course, having the resources to travel can mean different things to different people. It could mean anything from backpacking and staying in hostels to flying in a G6 jet and staying at 5-star hotel. So let me say — I’m somewhere in-between. In thinking about this exciting adventure, I decided not to put a clock on how long it would take me to visit every state. The mission would be to have fun and enjoy the experience at my own pace.

I will be playing a round of golf in each of the 50 states and documenting my experiences – the courses, the cities and towns where I stay, the food, the local attractions, and most of all, the people.  Joining me at times will be my girlfriend, Karen, and our Golden Retriever puppy, Callie.

I hope you’ll also join me on my adventure.  I’ll be updating this site with new posts along the way so please come back to read all about it. And I’d welcome your feedback and any recommendations about your state!

So, as we say when starting a round -- Let's tee it up!
