It’s been over 8 months since Grant Horvat left Good Good Golf. And while Grant has spoken about the break up on a few occasions, the real reasons have never been discussed publicly. CEO of Good Good Matt Kendrick spoke about how Good Good did everything they could to get Grant to stay and that he never shared with them exactly why he left. A recent video posted by Grant reveals the motivating force behind his decision.
Do you think Grant made the right decision to part ways with Good Good?

Exactly, being his own man. Certainly my own credo.
I think Grant is a good guy. But the definition of leeching is using someone or something until you have no use for it anymore.
Thanks Dougie , you seem to have a different perspective on this kind U-Tube golf . Different perspectives are very important , not just golf but anything. Keep up the great content.
Dougie, awesome reporting. You are the Sports Center for YOUTUBE golf news. Keep up the great reporting. Eventually you’ll be a major contributor and you’ll experience a great following!
The real reason Grant Horvat left Good Good is 100% speculation on your part. You are simply expecting the rest of us to take your speculations as facts. I personally tune in for golf content not gossip. This is 100% GOSSIP!
I followed all this really closely, but something I never thought about – does Micah still actually own equity in GG…? That would interesting. When Grant joined GG he made the team so much better. I do not think he had any intention of using them, he just made the best decision for himself, wife and family. He had a vision of a different future than what he saw and experienced with GG
Great video, you nailed it.
it seems like Garrett hand picks everybody and now he has that puppy dog blonde following him around like a shadow its annoying as hell.They are getting a little to corporate for but i get it they are going for the big money grab
Are Grant and Micah still releasing videos? I thought they both took themselves too seriously, especially Micah, and were no loss to GG.
Interesting
13:25 – in what sense is Steven an 'owner' and Garret etc are not?
Grant and especially Micha were no loss to GG. Both took themselves far too seriously. Also you make out like they GG boys turning it i to a job is a bad thing. They're making bank are young and are blessed with an opportunity we could ever dream of. They've done the perfect thing, getting investment and backing so they can expand. They are also still owners of GG.
I think this is spot on. GG has def gone corporate. Do I hate it? No. Is it different? Yes. I mean even GG guys have said there isn’t GG weeks anymore.. it’s like all month long
Grant and Micah are doing just fine without the corporate label…borh have 1/2 million subs and are both making tons of capital and because they're both married and older more settled
I thought we were done with this topic. LOL I think something that Grant's critics forget is that GG grew exponentially while Grant was there, so yeah maybe he used them but they used him too. It was a mutually beneficial relationship. As for your take on this, Grant was on a GG podcast shortly after joining them and they asked him where he thought he would be in five (?) years and he said "Florida" without hesitation. I don't think it was any more complicated than that. If he had been from Kansas City or Dallas I think he would still be with GG. But there came a point where he knew what his future would be (the job part that you mentioned) with GG in Dallas and that just couldn't compare with what he saw awaiting him in Jupiter, Florida. Since he and Micah relocated there the Bob Does Sports gang has also decided to relocate there because Jupiter is all about golf. I think a better question is why Micah left. He's not from Florida. He's from OKC. He's Garret's cousin. He's not good enough to play professionally. He's not even as good as Grant, and frankly he's not as good on camera as Grant. The only thing I can figure is that Micah just didn't want to do the silly "Wheel of Not Ideal" type challenges. Being a few years older (and married) he wanted to focus on more serious content. Maybe do a follow up video on that.
I don’t know, seems kind of dumb to me. The bigger he gets, with golf and now merch, it’s going to end up being a corporate run job eventually, is he gonna be quitting that too. Never was a big fan of his, or Micah for that matter
Good Good is obviously a business. They’re making putters, apparel, came out with golf balls, and are probably going to have signature model clubs in the future. That doesn’t take away from the fact that they’re still great friends and having a good time together through the whole journey. Garrett, Matt and Steve have been together for a long time, AJ is friends with Garrett from school. Luis and Steve have been friends for a long time and so have Collin and Max. Bubbie has gel’d with them, as he would anyone he meets. He’s just the epitome of a happy person. Kwon is the only one that it feels like is still maybe an outsider, in a sense. He’s still got more personality than Micah. They’re living their dreams, making a shit ton of money and are all doing it with their best friends around them.
Facts or opinions?
Grant did GG wrong.They made him what he is which is nothing to me.
Incorporating the white board into your videos will be a big assist in growing your channel, however speculating without real facts could slow down your numbers
this is a dead subject…GoodGood guys and Grant are on good terms…its over
Seeing some of the shade you're getting doesn't make any sense. Imo u broke down your opinion on what happened and it just makes sense. Some of the GG fandom have all the making of a cult. I dropped off when Grant left and have only watched GG and GM Golf when they have a fellow content creator I follow. When I have gone back their content seems very loud and for a younger audience. It fits in with Dude Perfect and How Ridiculous more than Grant or BustaJack imo. I thought initially Grant left because of not being a partner in GG and making a lot less money but I think u hit on all the bullet poinits. He's married so the GG lifestyle didn't fit, he wanted to do his own thing at his own pace and he wanted to be home near his parents. His Dad is I think in his 70s so he wanted time with him. What surprised me was his close friendship with Micah. I didn't get that when they were in GG but they've joked that they spend nights like retired Floridians playing cards with their wives together. Grant's always a happy guy but Micah seems so much more relaxed and at peace with himself sans GG. Really enjoying your interviews and content. Would love to see u interview either of the BustaJack boys and naturally the Bob Does Sports crew.
Grant quite clearly thanked Garrett & Good Good for their massive part in what he was able to build ! 👍
Thanks for tuning in, and for more golf coverage, here’s a recent interview with Brad Dalke where we chat about how he joined Good Good: https://youtu.be/5qCoGTdUfS4?si=wnjbTBxS5h4UoqXD
13:27 WAIT!!????? Stephen Castenada OWNS Good Good??????
So that graph you drew is kinda bogus… at that time.. GG was asking for 1 week out of every month… he was free to do whatever he wanted. Theres nothing wrong with expanding a business and becoming a larger corporation.. your tone seems biased towards working for anything other than yourself.. Grant was able to use his GG exposure to SPRINGBOARD his own channel… which accelerated his youtube presence.. he left for selfish reasons… the claims about it being about family ring really hollow when the guy seems to be RARELY in Florida… he saw an opportunity to grow his brand and he took it… he should at least admit to that…
Interesting take, freedom to forge your own path can’t be understated. I’m glad he’s still mates with the GG crew.
No where have i seen on YT and IG that Grant is married.
Fairly obvious Grant wanted back nearer his family was getting married and Good Good was increasing the amount of content and travelling they were doing one week a month has risen to 3 weeks.
Grant didn’t fancy that so he went on his own.
this is exactly right…. garret made grant. deadass i feel like grant should praise garret. we all know garret makes anyone around him a star. fr he should praise garret for what he did
good for Grant…
everybody has their self interest placed first…
GoodGood added Grant in the interest of GoodGood , Grant left GoodGood in the interest of Grant…
EVERYBODY DOES THE SAME THING…
all YT golfers use each other equally…
GoodGood used Bryson to advance GoodGood, Bryson did not need GoodGood…
he didn't want to swing callaway clubs! jk im joking…. unless
