Is Bubbie Golf still in Good Good?

As of October 2026, Bubbie Golf is still in Good Good as far as anything on the record shows: no departure has been announced by him or by Good Good. The Chicago District Golfer described him as a member of the crew in February 2026, and the 2026 Chicago Golf Show billed him as “a leading member of the Good Good Golf YouTube channel” for appearances on February 28 and March 1, 2026. When Good Good’s CEO and president stepped down on September 2, 2026, the internal memo reported by Front Office Sports said the creator team would keep making content; it did not name him either way.

Who represents Bubbie Golf?

Our read

Ames Create does not work with Bubbie Golf. This is our view, from a team that works on creator brands for a living.

The format. Good Good is buddy golf with real stakes: friends filmed like a broadcast, playing matches and challenges against each other. Bubbie carried the highest handicap on D Magazine’s 2024 leader board of the group, which makes him the player most viewers can picture themselves as, and his solo channel ran the same idea in challenges like breaking par from the front tees.

Why it travels. He came in through trick shots, the most shareable thing in golf, and his first Good Good video ended with a hole-out. Good Good’s 2.2 million subscriber channel does most of the carrying now; his solo channel’s best recent numbers came from a custom golf cart build and a club yardage video, and it has been quiet for over a year.

Brand fit. Golf gear, apparel and course or travel brands fit the content he has made. Good Good lost partners after an August 2026 ad, including Callaway and several retailers, per [Front Office Sports](https://frontofficesports.com/article/good-good-golf-ceo-steps-down-amid-callaway-driver-ad-fallout/), so any brand working with the group right now is working through that, and a solo deal would want to know first when his own channel is back.
