After Dahmen finished atop the 2014 PGA TOUR Canada season-long standings to earn full 2015 Korn Ferry Tour membership, his longtime friend Bonnalie made a pitch to carry the bag, utilizing the written word. They hailed from the same home region near the Washington/Idaho border, both avid junior players and first bonding during a two-player team event where Bonnalie, 15 or 16 at the time, needed a partner and asked Dahmen, 12 at the time. Dahmen accepted the written pitch, and the rest was history.
