Kick Butt Tip of the Day for July 07: Never Miss A Chance To Say Thank You

Back on June 18th, pro golfer Wyndham Clark scored his first-ever major title after a one-stroke victory over Rory McIlroy at the Los Angeles Country Club.  After his big win, Wyndham gave a tribute to his Mom who lost her battle with cancer when he was just 19.  Wyndham says “she was so positive and such a motivator in what she did. She'd be crying tears of joy. She called me winner when I was little. When she was sick and I was in college, she told me, “Hey, play big. Play for something bigger than yourself. You have a platform to either witness or help or be a role model for so many people. I've taken that to heart. When I'm out there playing, I want to do that for her.”

Social Media Day (6/30) was launched in 2010, and at that time, MySpace was king. Taylor Swift, who was just three years into her incredible carer as a country singer, communicated with her fan through Myspace. We have come a long way since then, as today, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and Snapchat are all powerful platforms and the future will surely introduce new social media apps.

Country stars have been a fixture on social media since the beginning, with every country star having a presence on Facebook. Most of them still have Facebook accounts but only Garth Brooks launches big things on the social media giant, like his weekly Studio G chat with fans via his Facebook page.

After Facebook, country music's finest moved over to Twitter as Carrie Underwood launched her Twitter account in February of 2012, announcing to her following, "Hello Twitter world!"

Mashable created Social Media Day to recognize the impact social media has had on communications around the world.

In honor of Social Media Day today (6/30), we have gathered what we believe are the ten most entertaining and informative Instagram accounts from country music's finest.

This newcomer is energetic and bounces around the stage like the Energizer Bunny, and it shows on his social media accounts.
