Shane hosts the Get a Grip podcast, a weekly chat with some of the most fun people in and around the game of golf. As one of the earliest golf podcasters out there, starting things out with The Clubhouse with Shane Bacon, and evolving things into Get a Grip (which was co-hosted by PGA Tour winner Max Homa for the first year and a half of its existence), Shane hopes the podcast gets you more interested in people you already love and helps you fall in love with those in the game that you didn't know much about before listening.

Along with his media duties, Shane published a children's golf book, The Golfer's Zoo, in 2022 that takes kids on a journey around the golf course and all those critters and animals that call the course their home.

When he isn't focused on the media side of things, Shane centers his attention on a business he started in 2021 alongside professional golfer Kate Smith that creates and updates logos around the game. Ground Under Repair is a chance to focus on one of his obsessions in golf; making logos better.

A Texas native who headed west to attend the University of Arizona, Shane offers a new and refreshing take on the sport by drawing from his many experiences in the golf world, having spent some time as a caddie at the Old Course at St. Andrews in Scotland and for a few events on the LPGA Tour, as well as a brief stint competing on the mini-tour circuit from 2007-2008. In 2014, after beginning his career by starting his own blog, Dogs That Chase Cars, and eventually landing gigs at AOL, Yahoo, and CBS, Shane made his breakthrough into television by joining the Back9Network where he co-hosted “The Turn” on DirecTV. Since his start in television, Shane has been the lead interviewer and host of multiple U.S. Opens, been a part of the first-ever "Match" with Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson, and has hosted Big East college basketball, been a sideline reporter for both college football and the NFL, was a part of the Westminster Dog Show coverage in 2019 and has hosted sports in both the Summer Olympics and Winter Olympics for NBC. Shane continues to avoid bogeys at all costs.
