Has a golden retriever named Reese.

Loves coffee, taste testing tacos, and surfing; he wants to own his own coffee or taco shop one day.

In the mid-2020s, got into pour-over coffee and eventually began traveling with his coffee-brewing essentials. Typically brings his own coffee beans when traveling, but will often venture out into the city he's playing in and purchase beans from local coffee shops to bring home.

Earliest golf memory is playing with his brother at Meadowbrook Golf Club in Gainesville, Florida. Also played at the George Cobb-designed Gainesville Country Club throughout his youth.

Grew up in Gainesville, Florida, where he attended Buchholz High School. Other notable Buchholz alums include two-time NBA champion Vernon Maxwell, two-time MLB All-Star pitcher Andrew Miller, and professional tennis player Ben Shelton.

Connected with four-time PGA TOUR winner Joe Durant, who is a native of Pensacola, Florida, home to the University of West Florida, in summer 2015, prior to the start of his sophomore season. Durant is a close friend of longtime West Florida men's golf head coach Steve Fell, who connected he and Blanchet. Durant's main advice for Blanchet was distance control with wedges. Blanchet practiced with his wedges at an intramural sports field, setting up cones for target practice. Blanchet laughed as he recalled being kicked off the field multiple times.
