Man, let's do it.
00:01:04.384 --> 00:01:06.411
We might burn this to the ground, dude.
00:01:06.411 --> 00:01:09.802
We don't know what's gonna happen, you never know.
00:01:09.841 --> 00:01:13.319
Thank you guys for joining.
00:01:13.319 --> 00:01:13.902
Hey guys, I'm Joe Mahomes.
00:01:13.902 --> 00:01:18.545
If you guys didn't know, Mike is co-father, founder of Hidden Greens.
00:01:18.545 --> 00:01:28.846
Um, and then Chris Mr Torres is the community captain of I'm trying to search for a C Vegas name Casa Blanca.
00:01:28.846 --> 00:01:31.228
Hey well you can call that NASA.
00:01:32.123 --> 00:01:34.290
Yeah, we call it the Sahara.
00:01:34.290 --> 00:01:34.694
Country Club.
00:01:34.694 --> 00:01:35.117
There you go.
00:01:36.248 --> 00:01:42.168
So we're not gonna dive too deep into uh Mike's ongoings with Dog Leg, part 3, or Cocky and Lucky and the other things like that.
00:01:42.168 --> 00:01:44.384
Chris is dealing with uh Tropicana Golf Club.
00:01:44.384 --> 00:01:48.370
I'm gonna give a shout out to uh Jed up at Angel Park.
00:01:48.370 --> 00:01:51.259
These guys well, mike's already done one.
00:01:51.259 --> 00:01:53.781
Uh did a podcast with Jed up there, uh Golf at the Park.
00:01:53.781 --> 00:01:54.263
It's on YouTube.
00:01:54.263 --> 00:01:55.087
It's a podcast.
00:01:55.087 --> 00:01:56.263
Mike's is great.
00:01:56.263 --> 00:02:01.206
It dives pretty deep into like the Hidden Green situation and what he's doing and his work with Roger Steele.
00:02:01.206 --> 00:02:12.806
Uh, we might get into some of those situations a little bit, but and then Chris just recorded this morning with Jed up at uh Angel Park, with Jed, oh yeah, and his episode should be dropping soon.
00:02:14.229 --> 00:02:15.157
I think in the next couple weeks.
00:02:15.157 --> 00:02:16.243
Yeah, in the next couple weeks.
00:02:16.264 --> 00:02:21.086
So, that's gonna dive really deep into Chris's uh history and, uh, what he's got going on.
00:02:21.086 --> 00:02:25.300
So I just want to give you know a little push to go check out Jed's podcast.
00:02:25.300 --> 00:02:31.187
Um, up at Golf at the Park, I mean they're doing great things up there and great facility.
00:02:31.187 --> 00:02:35.562
Like Mike, my grandpa was a Marshall out there and you know it's.
00:02:35.562 --> 00:02:39.319
It's awesome to see what they're doing and all the social media influence.
00:02:39.319 --> 00:02:45.885
Like I think Jed's really taken that by the horns and he's the only, he's like the one course in town.
00:02:45.925 --> 00:02:47.300
That's really like trying to push it hard.
00:02:47.700 --> 00:02:49.307
Yeah, jed is, jed is pushing it.
00:02:49.307 --> 00:02:51.441
He is and I think he's building the community even.
00:02:51.441 --> 00:02:59.300
I mean, you're talking about guys that haven't played there in 10 years and then guys that are just getting started and we're all getting smashed together because of everybody's posting on Angel Park.
00:02:59.300 --> 00:03:00.936
So doing a great job up there.
00:03:01.340 --> 00:03:03.319
Yeah, and it's a great spot, great practice facility.
00:03:03.319 --> 00:03:05.056
If you're in the area like that, that's where you go.
00:03:05.056 --> 00:03:12.188
I mean the only, the only real, like legit part three lit course in town, like I know we have that other one but it's trash.
00:03:12.188 --> 00:03:13.562
Sorry.
00:03:15.441 --> 00:03:16.431
How many times?
00:03:16.431 --> 00:03:16.551
How?
00:03:16.612 --> 00:03:17.258
many times you guys pass by.
00:03:17.360 --> 00:03:19.280
Dude, if I had the money, I would make this place a best.
00:03:19.441 --> 00:03:24.365
Yeah, every day, bro, if I had a few million bucks, I would turn that place into a map.
00:03:25.381 --> 00:03:33.844
Yeah, I mean I'd be driving by and like just looking at all like the people just Dimple this balls, you know, yeah, and what would be.
00:03:33.885 --> 00:03:38.875
So dope is like as far as the course goes, you don't have to put much into it, right?
00:03:40.127 --> 00:03:40.269
Dude.
00:03:40.310 --> 00:03:42.753
I would replace every T box with a hitting mat.
00:03:42.753 --> 00:03:43.319
You know what I'm saying.
00:03:43.319 --> 00:03:47.300
Yeah, and then I wouldn't even care about the rest of the course.
00:03:47.300 --> 00:03:52.424
I would put all the money just into the greens and let the recipe desert with like a little bit of fringe and call it a day.
00:03:53.319 --> 00:03:54.324
I mean that's a hell of an idea.
00:03:54.324 --> 00:03:58.835
But do you guys remember when, when Taylor made first took it over and they did the big holes?
00:03:58.835 --> 00:03:59.300
You guys remember that?
00:04:00.383 --> 00:04:00.986
I don't remember that.
00:04:00.986 --> 00:04:03.681
I do remember Taylor made having it, having it.
00:04:03.681 --> 00:04:04.786
I never played.
00:04:05.420 --> 00:04:06.774
So obviously, when Callaway opened it right.
00:04:06.774 --> 00:04:09.906
So it was Callaway initially and it was dude.
00:04:09.906 --> 00:04:10.895
It was cream of the crop.
00:04:10.895 --> 00:04:11.300
It was amazing.
00:04:11.300 --> 00:04:12.264
I played it a few times.
00:04:12.264 --> 00:04:24.531
Then they went down and then Taylor made picked it up, and then Taylor made the 18 inch holes and they did away for people to come out and play and it was oh, I got to the big I don't know why when you?
00:04:24.572 --> 00:04:27.146
said the holes, I was thinking they did like soccer golf holes.
00:04:28.204 --> 00:04:30.673
So almost soccer balls, soccer size holes.
00:04:30.673 --> 00:04:38.411
But it was just a way to get people to come out and just put do one putts right, and it was really nice, it was great, and then it just stopped and it went.
00:04:38.411 --> 00:04:44.685
You know, shoot, I think it was a 2015 or 2016, when they kind of just let it go.
00:04:45.319 --> 00:04:51.206
That's crazy, I mean it's, it's such a prime like location you know like and it's it's money.
00:04:51.360 --> 00:04:54.673
And that's where a lot of people on our side of town like I know you got.
00:04:54.673 --> 00:04:56.733
Well, chris, you're over here, but Mike, you're all the way up there.
00:04:56.733 --> 00:05:00.249
So you got Angel Park but it's close to a lot of people and it's lit and you can go anytime you want.
00:05:00.249 --> 00:05:01.742
So a lot of people hit that up.
00:05:01.742 --> 00:05:10.108
I mean I can't imagine the revenue just in range balls, because I'm sure that's at least 90% of their right has to be that in the bar.
00:05:10.189 --> 00:05:12.451
That's the two things that run that place.
00:05:14.548 --> 00:05:19.259
All you see is like you still see Taylor made like branding all over the place to everywhere.
00:05:19.521 --> 00:05:22.451
Yeah whoever bought it was just like yeah, whatever, just leave it.
00:05:22.451 --> 00:05:22.774
I just hope.
00:05:22.774 --> 00:05:26.673
I hope somebody does some what they do, because it's pretty real estate.
00:05:26.673 --> 00:05:28.673
Where's the?
00:05:28.673 --> 00:05:30.391
Where's the pop shirt going?
00:05:30.391 --> 00:05:32.228
Isn't it going somewhere over there across the streets?
00:05:32.471 --> 00:05:34.593
going to town center, town square.
00:05:34.814 --> 00:05:38.694
So I feel like whoever whether it's the person or somebody buys it.
00:05:38.694 --> 00:05:43.107
Somebody's going to have to do something with it, because pop shirts and take all of their business.
00:05:43.399 --> 00:05:44.204
It's going to take all of this.
00:05:46.370 --> 00:05:48.103
And you guys have never been to a pop show, right.
00:05:48.564 --> 00:05:48.906
I never.
00:05:49.744 --> 00:05:52.834
So we went in Orlando and man, it's a lot of fun.
00:05:52.834 --> 00:05:55.267
It's fucking way too busy, but it's.
00:05:55.267 --> 00:05:57.319
It's awesome, it's a lot of fun.
00:05:57.319 --> 00:05:58.148
I can't wait.
00:05:58.148 --> 00:06:03.300
I can't wait for that to get here, because I mean, chris having kids like I can't wait to take the O there.
00:06:04.303 --> 00:06:08.956
Like I'm looking for annual members pass because I can take that my son there all the time.
00:06:08.956 --> 00:06:10.444
It's it's a bunch of fun.
00:06:10.444 --> 00:06:17.279
But I think I forget which one of you said it, but the the turf T-boxes.
00:06:17.279 --> 00:06:26.370
I think I think they should definitely implement that and I think that this might be controversial, but Angel Park Cloud 9 should probably.
00:06:26.451 --> 00:06:28.391
I agree with that because 100.
00:06:28.391 --> 00:06:28.915
Oh yeah, those.
00:06:28.935 --> 00:06:33.086
T-boxes are just beat up and if yeah, they're just beat the fuck up.
00:06:33.086 --> 00:06:42.363
And if you just had like a little 8 by 3 square where you could always hit off if you preferred, like I think that would make that place a little bit more enjoyable.
00:06:42.363 --> 00:06:42.846
Personally.
00:06:42.925 --> 00:06:44.464
I think you would make it very enjoyable.
00:06:44.786 --> 00:06:50.694
I mean it'll be a, it'll help the Greenskeepers to man Like it's totally a lot, you know just let the areas heal.
00:06:50.976 --> 00:06:58.127
Just let them heal you know, whatever the case may be, in a summertime or you know, I know you got to say is like we're playing off turf today.
00:06:58.814 --> 00:06:59.057
Yeah.
00:06:59.379 --> 00:07:00.343
Sorry, yeah.
00:07:00.343 --> 00:07:03.319
You hit off you hit off turf off the driving range.
00:07:03.319 --> 00:07:04.464
You can hit off turf on the part.
00:07:05.581 --> 00:07:07.764
When's the last time you guys played that part 3 at the golf center?
00:07:10.163 --> 00:07:10.947
Not too long for me.
00:07:10.947 --> 00:07:12.805
I mean, it was this year, a couple months ago.
00:07:13.500 --> 00:07:15.600
That ninth hole has has it does.
00:07:16.244 --> 00:07:16.846
That was the best.
00:07:16.886 --> 00:07:17.267
T-box.
00:07:17.360 --> 00:07:20.083
Yeah, that's really pretty.
00:07:20.142 --> 00:07:21.983
Matt Brahm, I worried, you guys get this though.
00:07:22.182 --> 00:07:22.423
Yeah.
00:07:22.545 --> 00:07:25.922
It's there and back in the day dude it used to have one par 4.
00:07:25.922 --> 00:07:26.906
It had one par 4.
00:07:26.906 --> 00:07:30.612
It was a yeah, this was when it was Callaway.
00:07:30.612 --> 00:07:31.925
It was one par 4.
00:07:31.925 --> 00:07:34.846
They basically took 8 and 9 and made that a long par 4.
00:07:34.846 --> 00:07:35.600
It was pretty cool.
00:07:35.600 --> 00:07:36.504
Okay.
00:07:36.584 --> 00:07:43.158
No, dude, I was going to say it's so random that one, that one T-box is like that, but it is like the nicest man I've ever hit off.
00:07:43.600 --> 00:07:44.726
Yeah, I'm going to jack this.
00:07:45.562 --> 00:07:46.286
I'm going to jack this.
00:07:46.286 --> 00:07:50.685
So how much, how much of the open did you guys watch?
00:07:52.834 --> 00:07:56.043
this past weekend I saw Mr Trashman himself Republic.
00:07:56.062 --> 00:07:57.901
Services repping barely.
00:07:57.901 --> 00:07:59.127
Barely any highlights from me.
00:07:59.742 --> 00:08:04.987
I saw the third round and I saw just most of the third round and I saw just a little bit of the fourth.
00:08:04.987 --> 00:08:07.047
So yeah, it was interesting, man.
00:08:07.047 --> 00:08:10.947
It was very interesting to see a lefty just kick everyone's ass right.
00:08:11.319 --> 00:08:12.627
Well, you're lefty right, so you loved it.
00:08:12.627 --> 00:08:15.146
I was I loved every moment.
00:08:15.822 --> 00:08:17.187
My only thing is go ahead.
00:08:17.187 --> 00:08:19.267
For me, I'm like I don't.
00:08:19.267 --> 00:08:26.603
I don't want to see someone run away with it, I want to see a tight race, I want to see a battle.
00:08:26.603 --> 00:08:29.593
I want to see someone destruct at the end.
00:08:29.593 --> 00:08:32.248
I want to see someone fucking coming back from behind.
00:08:32.248 --> 00:08:33.644
Right, and it did.
00:08:33.644 --> 00:08:39.240
I mean Wyndham Clark kind of ran away with it a little bit, I mean he was ahead.
00:08:39.240 --> 00:08:45.826
But I feel like I just want that drama a little bit more in these majors and I feel like we haven't gotten a really good one in a while.
00:08:46.340 --> 00:08:46.841
In a minute.
00:08:46.841 --> 00:08:55.885
It's been a minute and I think with this one a lot of Crocoteers man, everybody was complaining about something and I was like dude, what else you guys got to complain about?
00:08:55.885 --> 00:08:57.826
So there's Armin.
00:08:59.309 --> 00:09:00.138
We played VGN this weekend.
00:09:00.138 --> 00:09:03.182
We had a two day tournament Like you see, fucking hot as shit.
00:09:03.182 --> 00:09:04.106
It was the summer season.
00:09:04.106 --> 00:09:09.384
His old shout out Jeremy Belflauer I know he listens every single week driving his UPS truck.
00:09:09.384 --> 00:09:16.320
He might be able to quit now because he got like three or four skins and a couple of closest to pins and he won the tournament.
00:09:16.320 --> 00:09:19.865
So, he's probably driving his truck and now listen to it, but it's cool.
00:09:21.532 --> 00:09:23.826
But it's like everybody just money flying out of the window.
00:09:24.623 --> 00:09:27.043
Yeah, it's just gift cards just going out the window.
00:09:28.782 --> 00:09:31.491
But everybody plays the same golf course and that's what that's.
00:09:31.491 --> 00:09:38.320
One thing for me is like if one guy complains and the other guy doesn't, it's like fuck.
00:09:38.320 --> 00:09:40.219
I mean, you played the same golf course.
00:09:40.219 --> 00:09:44.279
You have nothing to blame it on if he played better than you.
00:09:44.279 --> 00:09:50.320
And that was a controversy situation where the grounds crew made that the ends of the pot bunkers.
00:09:50.320 --> 00:09:59.143
They made a more of a, you know, like up slope to cover some of those Reeves Revings, what did they call them, can't remember, but sorry with an R.
00:09:59.143 --> 00:10:05.966
But it's like everybody's playing the same golf course and Brian Harmon, just he putted his ass off.
00:10:05.966 --> 00:10:15.323
But for me, like watching a major, I want to see something coming down to the stretch and I want to see it more exciting and shout out.
00:10:15.323 --> 00:10:18.187
Brian Harmon, like great player, seems like a really good dude.
00:10:18.187 --> 00:10:22.942
He seems like a, you know, probably a more deep south version of Kevin Kisner to me.
00:10:22.942 --> 00:10:31.163
But you know, I just want majors to be more exciting and I don't think we've gotten that in a while, a little while.
00:10:32.340 --> 00:10:33.384
I agree, I agree.
00:10:33.384 --> 00:10:36.320
And then we can go on and on and talk about why, right?
00:10:36.320 --> 00:10:44.320
Because you know the field was cut in half and a lot of the exciting players left, a lot of the drama went away.
00:10:44.320 --> 00:10:47.714
It's kind of like Brian Harmon just won a major.
00:10:47.714 --> 00:10:48.299
You know what I'm saying.
00:10:48.744 --> 00:10:49.936
Right, yeah, it's like wild.
00:10:49.936 --> 00:10:51.936
Like Brian Harmon won, you know.
00:10:52.724 --> 00:10:57.644
Yeah, it was just like last year when it was Tony Fiena, and remember it was like, well, Tony Fiena won three in a row, or whatever it was.
00:10:57.644 --> 00:11:00.067
It's like yeah.
00:11:00.360 --> 00:11:13.423
Remember last year it was like Rory was charging Cam Young was right there, Cam Smith, like you know, it came down to 18 where if, like Cam Young, like Eagle did or Rory birdied the last two, that could have changed the whole thing.
00:11:13.423 --> 00:11:17.143
I don't remember exactly, but that's the type of shit I wanted in a major.
00:11:17.143 --> 00:11:21.410
I don't really care necessarily who wins, but I want some fucking drama.
00:11:21.410 --> 00:11:23.289
You gotta have the drama dude.
00:11:23.289 --> 00:11:26.187
I mean dude, it was one by six.
00:11:26.187 --> 00:11:27.364
He won by six.
00:11:28.399 --> 00:11:29.423
He had an interesting story.
00:11:30.320 --> 00:11:32.086
Did you see the only one all weekend that was under par?
00:11:33.471 --> 00:11:34.320
All weekend.
00:11:34.320 --> 00:11:37.208
I don't know about that Maybe.
00:11:38.440 --> 00:11:39.565
Or maybe all four rounds under par.
00:11:39.565 --> 00:11:41.023
Oh no, he was.
00:11:41.062 --> 00:11:41.182
Yeah.
00:11:42.922 --> 00:11:43.725
Yeah, for sure.
00:11:43.725 --> 00:11:47.966
I mean you drain like 58 to 59 with inside 10 feet or something.
00:11:47.966 --> 00:11:49.283
I saw that stuff.
00:11:49.323 --> 00:11:51.905
I mean did you guys see the the waggle counter?
00:11:51.905 --> 00:11:55.203
Yeah, I thought, I thought it was fake.
00:11:55.203 --> 00:11:55.926
I mean, it was real.
00:11:55.926 --> 00:12:03.128
It was like yeah, I mean it was insane to watch him waggle so much, but I was like, dude, is this on repeat, right?
00:12:03.128 --> 00:12:07.745
But I mean we've all played with the player that does that, so I mean it's interesting to say it, you know.
00:12:08.320 --> 00:12:14.320
So that's kind of funny because earlier today I saw a video it was probably like 2013, 2014.
00:12:14.320 --> 00:12:28.663
Someone going over his it was probably like a playing lessons thing on golf channel and they were going over his like pre-shot routine and I was watching it and he said you know, I step up to the ball, I'm gonna step up, and then I don't hit until I'm comfortable.
00:12:28.663 --> 00:12:33.163
So that kind of gave a lot of context to the situation.
00:12:33.163 --> 00:12:36.581
He's not comfortable playing in the last round of the major.
00:12:36.581 --> 00:12:39.203
So I understand why he waggles so much.
00:12:39.203 --> 00:12:40.922
Because it's he's not.
00:12:40.982 --> 00:12:45.423
I mean, it takes a long time to get comfortable for him in a final round when he's ahead.
00:12:45.423 --> 00:12:47.208
It's nerves too, man.
00:12:47.208 --> 00:13:11.023
It's nerves, yeah, I mean, and it takes a lot of discipline to have that where you you're not going to swing until you feel comfortable because for most part, like I play pretty quick I know you guys play pretty quick we just hit the fucking ball and see where it goes right, but in the final round, in the major, when you have a six-shot lead, like your nerves are going.
00:13:11.485 --> 00:13:13.182
Has he won a major before this first one?
00:13:13.182 --> 00:13:14.922
No, no, he's only won like one time.
00:13:15.403 --> 00:13:17.148
Yeah, One like once in like 2016,.
00:13:17.148 --> 00:13:17.471
I think.
00:13:17.895 --> 00:13:26.077
Yeah, the greatest thing is he's like five, six bro, like he's a he's yeah, and he was, and he was bombing him, dude, and it's like man he was.
00:13:26.077 --> 00:13:28.279
He was locked and loaded and ready to go.
00:13:28.881 --> 00:13:29.865
I heard one of the interviews.
00:13:30.379 --> 00:13:33.644
He mentioned that someone asked what fueled him or something.
00:13:33.644 --> 00:13:41.830
I don't know if it was a third or the fourth round, but somebody in the gallery somebody in the gallery said you're not built for this Like yeah, you don't have the stones for this.
00:13:42.461 --> 00:13:42.942
That's what it was.
00:13:42.962 --> 00:13:44.902
You don't have the stones for this and he's like that.
00:13:44.902 --> 00:13:46.307
Just set me off, I'm like man.
00:13:46.307 --> 00:13:58.067
Imagine running into that guy, though, like dude, yeah, I buy him a drink and be like I'm gonna honestly, yeah, yeah, you're a piece of shit, but you're the reason I just did this.
00:13:58.067 --> 00:14:01.303
Yeah, well, he said it, he said it fueled him?
00:14:01.625 --> 00:14:02.067
Yeah, I feel it.
00:14:02.067 --> 00:14:08.885
So are you guys going out to buy that OG Taylor made spider putter that he has, or what?
00:14:08.885 --> 00:14:11.465
That little griddle, that little griddle cooker, the?
00:14:11.524 --> 00:14:13.572
pink saucer.
