For 11 years, Bud Pirollo was a professional golfer and an associate member of the PGA. In 1980, Bud started in radio with a weekly show on WTMR-AM. Bud has been a frequent quest on radio and TV, with appearances on WWDB-FM, WDAS-FM, WNWR-AM, COMCAST-TV, CTN New York TV, WNJC 1360AM.

Bud has hosted over 250 prime time shows with numerous guests from the world of professional football, baseball, and hockey along with his weekly golf guests.

On February 11, 1997, premiered with host Bud Pirollo interviewing Greg Farrow. Greg, the 1996 Philadelphia PGA Match Play Champion and winner of 25 Philadelphia PGA sectional events, has been a friend of Bud's for 30 years. They first met at a high school golf match. Greg was the medalist and the #2 player for Glassboro High School, and Bud was #1 for Washington Township H.S.

Bud started playing golf two years earlier at age 15 with a 162 at the par 72 Turnersville Country Club (now Freeway). By 1967, Bud was the #1 player on the Washington Township inaugural golf team. Upon graduation that Spring, Bud turned pro and became an associate member of the PGA working under Master Professional Charlie Arena.

After three years with Charlie and after completion of college at Stockton State, Bud purchased the Golden Tree Driving Range in Washington Township in 1973. Bud, now an apprentice in the PGA, opened the area's first discount pro shop, started the first golf lessons at the Washington and Monroe Township Adult Schools, and annually embarrassed himself with an 84 each year in the Freeway Open. In 1976, Bud sold the Golden Tee to the 76ers basketball player Fred Carter.

In 1978, Bud applied to the USGA for his amateur status and, after two years, joined the amateur ranks where he belonged.

During the past 32 years, Bud has enjoyed a more prosperous amateur career and through his playing and his affiliations with such "hot beds" of talent as Pitman Country Club, Wedgwood, and Tall Pines (Eagles Nest), and enjoys the friendship of most of the best players in South Jersey.

It is that rapport with Greg Farrow, Billy McGuiness (Billy's dad Jim was Charlie Arena's best friend), Leo Glutting, Doug Beechler and others that has contributed to the flow of the episodes.
