Sun Cruising
Golfapaloozing
A high-stakes, low-skill collective fueled by real vodka, real iced tea, and a deep belief that the right walk-on song can save any tee shot or putt.
What started as a tourney among friends turned into an annual event so we can always have something to look forward to, invite our college kids to join, or just use it to escape the wackiness of life. But while Golfapalooza's big event only happens once a year, we've made it so that we can all keep in touch in between those epic rounds.

The Magic Marker.
Handmade ball markees, one chip baked inside, zero apologies.
Drop it on the green and tap your phone to the face. Your page opens, your name's on it, and the whole foursome knows exactly who just stepped up. Hit play and your walk-on anthem rips. Thumb the soundboard when somebody needs heckling. Bury the putt, hit capture, and the shot lands in the round roll forever.
One tap to open. The rest of the hole, it's a mic in your pocket.
No app to download. No batteries to die on the back nine. No talking during the backswing. The marker does the talking now.
Tap it loud. Tap it proud.
The Cooler.
Sun Cruiser. Real vodka, real iced tea, 100 calories, no bubbles, gluten free, and gone by the back nine. The unofficial sponsor of every shanked drive we've ever celebrated.

- Half & Half12oz

Please cruise responsibly. 21+. Sun Cruiser® is a trademark of its respective owner — we just drink a lot of it.
The Crew Jams
Built for a heckle, a celebration of a great shot, or just because. Here are songs & sounds ready to play (and suggestions for when).

Gamble Sands
Brewster, WA
Big sky, bigger fairways. Sand-belt links carved into the Columbia River bluffs — wide off the tee, wild on the greens, and a Quicksands par-3 course built for cold-can chaos.
- 01Sands course · #3 public in America
- 02Quicksands 14-hole short course
- 03Sunset over the Columbia · cart bar open late
Bandon Dunes
Bandon, OR
Pacific coast pilgrimage. Five world-class links courses, fescue everywhere, caddies who heckle harder than we do, and a Punchbowl putting green that doubles as the after-party.
- 01Pacific Dunes · Old Mac · Sheep Ranch
- 02Bag drops and walking only — pure golf
- 03Punchbowl putting at sundown
The crew decides. Majority rules.
Every player has a personal ballot link in the group chat: pick the course, mark your free days. No ballot, no bag drop.
Dates lock when the ballots are in. Spots reserved for crew members in good standing — i.e. anyone who can produce a cold can, a walk-on song, and a cast ballot on demand.
The Green Monster
Ten holes on the practice green. Count every putt. Three trap holes hide in the round: the Star pays the low man, the Snake bites the high man, and once in a while the Marbles flip the whole board. Lowest total wins, exactly 21 is immortality, and the loser racks the next round of cold cans.
It's a web app — no store, no download, no account. Open it once and add it to your home screen; it plays full-screen like an app and your round survives a locked phone.

No talking during the backswing.
Unless you mean it.
The marker is the mic drop.
Tap it loud, tap it proud.
Cart paths are a suggestion.
Cold cans are mandatory.
