People want to know, I've been thinking about it Like I'm thinking about doing the.

00:02:56.419 --> 00:02:57.925
He's on his kid's Wi-Fi again.

00:02:58.447 --> 00:02:58.989
Perforated.

00:02:58.989 --> 00:03:00.003
No, I turned that off.

00:03:00.003 --> 00:03:02.123
That router is gone.

00:03:02.123 --> 00:03:06.650
I don't have the Logitech hooked up because my battery's dying on my head.

00:03:06.650 --> 00:03:11.800
But I'm, you know, the perforated, like waterproof kind of style hat I have.

00:03:11.800 --> 00:03:20.008
I've been talking to someone on Alibaba and with the PVC patch and then it greens on the side, so close to pulling the trigger.

00:03:20.760 --> 00:03:21.342
I have a.

00:03:21.723 --> 00:03:33.439
I'm going to try and meet up with this graphic designer on Saturday and just kind of like talk, talk about some things and just like, because I really you know all those fucking inspirational bullshits on Instagram.

00:03:33.439 --> 00:03:36.406
It's like you got one life, fucking live it.

00:03:36.406 --> 00:03:39.425
So you're like, yes, the people need hats.

00:03:39.425 --> 00:03:40.969
Yeah, I mean, I know.

00:03:41.009 --> 00:03:41.792
People need t-shirts.

00:03:42.639 --> 00:03:44.605
Not going to go all out, but I would like to do something.

00:03:44.605 --> 00:03:47.563
You know, at least once a quarter, maybe once every month.

00:03:47.563 --> 00:03:51.022
You know just something and it's, it's not.

00:03:51.022 --> 00:03:53.490
It's not, like I've said before, it's not to get rich.

00:03:53.490 --> 00:03:54.724
I didn't get rich off those shirts.

00:03:54.724 --> 00:04:00.566
I mean it's cool to see your shit posted on Instagram Like it's, it's, it's really awesome.

00:04:00.566 --> 00:04:05.531
I've always wanted to do it since, since I was like a skateboarder back in the day.

00:04:05.531 --> 00:04:07.485
Like I always wanted to start like a clothing brand.

00:04:07.485 --> 00:04:11.987
It's not really a clothing brand, it's like a it's, you know, it's.

00:04:11.987 --> 00:04:18.408
I feel like hitting greens feel feels like a space in the golf industry that's not there.

00:04:18.408 --> 00:04:21.048
Like there's all these other bullshit companies doing it.

00:04:21.048 --> 00:04:23.889
Like we get ads all the time on Instagram, right.

00:04:24.581 --> 00:04:27.610
Like you know, and it's it's just me.

00:04:27.610 --> 00:04:31.785
You know it started with me and Mike and it's just like homegrown.

00:04:31.785 --> 00:04:36.331
My all the Instagram followers are organic.

00:04:36.331 --> 00:04:37.624
I talk to all of you.

00:04:37.624 --> 00:04:41.309
But, yeah, I've always wanted to do it.

00:04:41.309 --> 00:04:44.428
So I'm like, I'm at that point where I'm like, fuck it, let's, let's do it.

00:04:44.428 --> 00:04:59.182
I'm going to meet with a graphic designer, hopefully this weekend, which you both know, and just try and like, be like, let's, let's collab, let's do it, you know.

00:04:59.182 --> 00:05:11.990
So next year up, hopefully coming soon, I'm in talks with Alibaba doing like a you know the beanies that they do like Wolf Creek around the, the hitting greens around the edge, and then like a PVC patch, and I'm trying, so we'll see Nice.

00:05:12.471 --> 00:05:16.076
Nice, Like I'm going to be on Cactus in your next design.

00:05:16.076 --> 00:05:16.439
I mean absolutely.

00:05:17.490 --> 00:05:21.069
If that is highly requested, yes, and you know, on cactuses, or can be done.

00:05:21.420 --> 00:05:22.345
Jeremy and I are perusing.

00:05:22.379 --> 00:05:27.182
I just wish I could draw man, because I'm the I've always been the idea guy like I got the ideas.

00:05:27.182 --> 00:05:28.324
But I can't.

00:05:28.324 --> 00:05:34.971
I can't put it down on fucking paper, I can't make you know renderings of it.

00:05:34.971 --> 00:05:36.343
I just can't do that part.

00:05:36.343 --> 00:05:37.387
But I have the ideas.

00:05:37.387 --> 00:05:42.464
So we'll see Next job, hopefully coming soon.

00:05:42.927 --> 00:05:52.802
Okay yeah, Jeremy and I were perusing the new Ping Hooper bag releases and there's a neon cactus one that's pretty sick.

00:05:53.382 --> 00:05:53.644
Yeah.

00:05:53.944 --> 00:05:54.706
Yeah, pretty sick.

00:05:54.706 --> 00:06:00.341
It's all black with bright lime green, highlighted neon looking cactuses.

00:06:02.146 --> 00:06:06.199
I had like a really good idea last night and Dan knows that I texted Dan about it.

00:06:06.199 --> 00:06:10.250
I talked to Chase and Ace's about it.

00:06:10.250 --> 00:06:18.291
It would take a really creative mind to pull it off but I think it would be really cool and it would tie into the hip hop culture kind of vibe.

00:06:18.291 --> 00:06:20.502
But it's a long ways away.

00:06:20.502 --> 00:06:26.634
But like I said I'm the idea guy, I just I can't put it out there.

00:06:26.860 --> 00:06:27.461
A little nugget.

00:06:27.461 --> 00:06:28.625
A little nugget for everybody.

00:06:28.625 --> 00:06:29.548
Keep an eye out for that.

00:06:29.920 --> 00:06:30.781
You know life's too short.

00:06:30.802 --> 00:06:35.653

Let us know you're there and who's, so we know who's hanging with us tonight.

00:06:58.521 --> 00:07:04.701
All right, joe, you were out and you went over the hump out to the perump.

00:07:04.701 --> 00:07:08.451
I did Got a little golf in at Mountain Falls.

00:07:08.451 --> 00:07:09.961
That I did.

00:07:09.961 --> 00:07:12.110
So let's let's get the Mountain Falls report.

00:07:13.300 --> 00:07:14.163
Mountain Falls is great.

00:07:14.163 --> 00:07:17.896
Currently $75 for the tee time it's.

00:07:17.896 --> 00:07:18.999
It's in really good shape.

00:07:18.999 --> 00:07:24.896
Played with Trey, dan and Zach, who was Zach's first time out there.

00:07:24.896 --> 00:07:27.422
He's obviously seen a lot of cool courses in his life.

00:07:27.422 --> 00:07:38.369
I mean he, he, he enjoyed it and greens were great Couple couple ballmarks that were unfinished being fixed, but it was great.

00:07:38.369 --> 00:07:49.021
I was able to roll roll in four birdies, which is two over my quota for per round, and I also rolled in a couple like a few more doubles.

00:07:49.081 --> 00:08:01.387
I just you know I want to around just to soul fill like a little fill the soul a little bit, but I did go over my double buggy quota a couple times.

00:08:01.387 --> 00:08:05.033
So yeah, but it was good man.

00:08:05.033 --> 00:08:10.199
I mean it probably looks the exact time that we were out there for the VGN tournament.

00:08:10.199 --> 00:08:11.982
I mean it's it still looks great.

00:08:11.982 --> 00:08:15.968
It's fun course, very reasonable in price.

00:08:15.968 --> 00:08:24.232
Yeah, I love Mountain Falls and it feels closer than Coyote Springs to drive, I mean, although they're pretty similar.

00:08:25.581 --> 00:08:31.406
But yeah, it's nice because you're out of town quickly, I mean, except blue diamond tapes, absolutely forever to get down sometimes.

00:08:31.869 --> 00:08:45.383
Yeah, yeah, I mean, but you can stop at Target or Walmart if you need to or you know there's tons of jobs there now pick up a Band-Aid or whatever the case may be, like some good restaurants on the far west end too, yeah, but I mean Mountain Falls is.

00:08:45.383 --> 00:08:48.095
I've never had issues with Mountain Falls.

00:08:48.095 --> 00:08:51.307
I've always enjoyed going out there and it, like I said, it feels pretty quick.

00:08:51.307 --> 00:08:58.394
It almost feels like a Paiute Drive and it's always been in good shape when I've gone out there, and the last weekend was no exception.

00:08:58.494 --> 00:09:08.912
So nice it was fun to get to play with Trey and chat some Washington golf because I played with them since we went up there and it was cool to see Zach.

00:09:08.912 --> 00:09:11.100
So, yeah, it was a good time.

00:09:14.245 --> 00:09:21.039
So to talk about the drive and this course, I'm looking forward to our rankings.

00:09:21.039 --> 00:09:33.202
If we do a rankings episode this year, I know we may wait and do it every two years because it can be kind of redundant and with all the changes going on to a lot of the courses, we may save it for 2024.

00:09:33.202 --> 00:09:48.913
But if we were to do the rankings today, I think Mountain Falls would seriously climb, and another one that and there's going to be a lot of people that are going to be shocked to hear me say this Alliantay is doing some really good things right now.

00:09:48.913 --> 00:09:51.822
We were out there this past weekend.

00:09:51.822 --> 00:09:56.966
There was eight of us that went out there to get a little practice round in Some of the VGN guys.

00:09:56.966 --> 00:10:07.195
It was nice, got to play with a couple of people I haven't played with before Matt Boyd and Jack Jarocchi and you know it was a good time.

00:10:07.696 --> 00:10:09.600
The course is in really good shape.

00:10:09.600 --> 00:10:11.605
I've never seen it this green.

00:10:11.605 --> 00:10:13.528
I've never seen it this receptive.

00:10:13.528 --> 00:10:15.273
There's actually rough now.

00:10:15.273 --> 00:10:17.346
That's like it's a penalty shot.

00:10:17.346 --> 00:10:21.883
If you're in the rough it's virtually a penalty shot because it is thick.

00:10:21.883 --> 00:10:27.600
There were times we drove right next to the ball or walked next to it and didn't see it.

00:10:27.600 --> 00:10:33.224
So everybody's going to have to pay attention really well to where it's going in if you're off the fairway.

00:10:33.224 --> 00:10:44.035
But fairways are in great shape, the greens were excellent, all of them were, they rolled true and were you get your ballmarks.

00:10:44.035 --> 00:10:45.178
You know it's a public course like that.

00:10:45.178 --> 00:10:46.884
That's got decent rates.

00:10:46.884 --> 00:10:47.807
So it's going to get a lot of play.

00:10:47.807 --> 00:10:51.999
Bunkers were iffy in some spots.

00:10:51.999 --> 00:10:59.923
Nothing terrible though, nothing like legacy or the old revere buggers, but I think everybody's going to have a really good time.

00:10:59.923 --> 00:11:04.999
I'm stunned, disappointed, shocked, upset, bothered, whatever.

00:11:05.019 --> 00:11:11.219
We only have 48 players for this one and I really thought we were going to be able to get 60.

00:11:11.219 --> 00:11:12.803
No problem, end of summer.

00:11:12.803 --> 00:11:15.673
But you know this shit happens.

00:11:15.673 --> 00:11:20.126
People travel, people got jobs, things change, you know and and I understand that.

00:11:20.126 --> 00:11:24.538
So it's just, it's I got to get over it, you know.

00:11:25.504 --> 00:11:32.692
This is why I wanted 100 players, because if we can get 60%, that's 60 players a tournament and that my goal to have that many guys out there for an event.

00:11:32.692 --> 00:11:39.214
Because the payouts are great, the the fee, the flights are great and everybody has a really good time.

00:11:39.214 --> 00:11:41.179
So we'll see if we can get that.

00:11:41.179 --> 00:11:47.038
For Coyote, the next major, we're up to 50 for that, but we'll talk more about that later.

00:11:47.038 --> 00:11:51.859
But yeah, so if you get a chance to get out to Aliantay, do yourself a favor, check it out.

00:11:51.859 --> 00:11:56.495
It's in really good shape and yeah, that's except for the range.

00:11:56.495 --> 00:12:07.232
They got to figure out what they're doing on the range because Matt was telling me that he brings one of his little small hitting mats with him because most of the time it's dirt.

00:12:07.232 --> 00:12:08.618
There's plenty of grass around there.

00:12:08.738 --> 00:12:11.912
There's just it's not marked out for you to hit in.

00:12:11.932 --> 00:12:17.618
Yeah, I don't think I've ever played that course when there's any shades of green on it, so I'm looking forward to playing it green.

00:12:17.638 --> 00:12:20.408
We did, we did play it once when it was green.

00:12:20.408 --> 00:12:21.735
I know me or you went out there.

00:12:21.735 --> 00:12:27.919
No, it was probably like a year or two ago, but we went out there one time and we were like never seen it like this in my entire life.

00:12:29.366 --> 00:12:35.812
Actually, yeah, the last time we played there, probably, I think it was like less than a year, probably like a year ago, exactly to the day.

00:12:36.333 --> 00:12:37.618
It's, I'm impressed, I'm impressed.

00:12:37.618 --> 00:12:45.096
It's definitely moved up the ranks a couple, a couple Nice, all right.

00:12:45.096 --> 00:12:50.514
So this weekend, you guys, either one of you playing Saturday or you saving it for Sunday, just Sunday, sunday.

00:12:50.514 --> 00:12:58.592
Just Sunday, yeah, we got the Rio Seco two man best ball event that's going on.

00:12:58.592 --> 00:13:01.440
There's 32 guys in that, so we got 16 teams.

00:13:01.440 --> 00:13:03.628
It's going to be.

00:13:03.628 --> 00:13:04.510
It's going to be fun, man.

00:13:04.510 --> 00:13:09.791
That's 630 start time at one of my favorite courses in town.

00:13:09.791 --> 00:13:10.793
I'm good.

00:13:10.813 --> 00:13:11.155
I just I got to.

00:13:11.155 --> 00:13:15.629
I got to hand in a few more beer cans to get the to pay it back.

00:13:15.629 --> 00:13:16.493
So yeah, that's going to be a blast.

00:13:16.493 --> 00:13:16.653
It's.

00:13:16.712 --> 00:13:24.321
I've been driving by it and it's, it's looks so good and I know they're getting ready to shut down for overseas, so hopefully they're.

00:13:24.341 --> 00:13:30.705
They haven't beat the course, so I'm going to be, I'm going to be, I'm going to be on for overseas, so hopefully they're.

00:13:30.705 --> 00:13:41.465
They haven't beat the course up too much, but it this last week driving by a man it looks, it looks really good, so that should be a good time, so I'm definitely looking forward to that.

00:13:41.465 --> 00:13:46.277
All right, so FedEx Cup is here.

00:13:46.277 --> 00:13:49.508
Oh, you got any want to go over any other news Did you see?

00:13:49.508 --> 00:13:50.412
The schedule came out.

00:13:50.974 --> 00:13:54.465
Yeah, I'm pretty proud in case they don't.

00:13:54.485 --> 00:13:58.755
I couldn't find the fall or whatever the hell they're calling it now.

00:13:58.755 --> 00:14:08.131
But the, the regular schedule is out, so we got that, and then Black Desert is going to take place before the, or is it before or after the trainers?

00:14:10.303 --> 00:14:11.166
Oh, I didn't see that part.

00:14:11.166 --> 00:14:13.293
I watched the PGA tour.

00:14:13.293 --> 00:14:20.423
A little video like Polaroid video that they just got they're just promoting them the regular season, which I totally understand, that's.

00:14:20.442 --> 00:14:21.667
That's where the big bucks are at.

00:14:21.667 --> 00:14:32.144
But yeah, I think Golf week came out with it first and they had the fall schedule on there as well, and I think Black Desert is the week before Shriners.

00:14:32.144 --> 00:14:33.729
Yeah, that makes sense.

00:14:33.729 --> 00:14:34.871
Yeah, it makes it.

00:14:34.871 --> 00:14:35.821
I mean before, after.

00:14:35.860 --> 00:14:46.048
Either way it's going to be something like that so my main thing from this past weekend is does Bryson's 58 qualifier for the Ryder Cup?

00:14:46.509 --> 00:14:46.629
No.

00:14:46.629 --> 00:14:50.153
Next question.

00:14:50.855 --> 00:14:52.927
I've seen it, so I've seen a few people, obviously.

00:14:52.947 --> 00:14:53.249
Adam.

00:14:53.249 --> 00:14:56.402
So many people are saying that Adam mentioned it.

00:14:56.682 --> 00:15:01.921
Yeah, quite a few like stories and posts on Instagram about like Bryson deserves being the first.

00:15:01.921 --> 00:15:08.206
Yeah, he's playing well, right, Like he played pretty good in what two of the majors this week this year something like that.

00:15:08.206 --> 00:15:08.908
He played decent.

00:15:09.330 --> 00:15:09.610
I don't know.

00:15:09.610 --> 00:15:10.542
Check that out, Jeremy.

00:15:10.542 --> 00:15:11.023
See what we got.

00:15:11.605 --> 00:15:11.966
The.

00:15:11.966 --> 00:15:19.888
I mean like yeah, bryson's great, but he's like you mentioned, he's a like a he's a clubhouse cancer.

00:15:19.888 --> 00:15:21.532
Yeah, he's a splitter like he's.

00:15:21.532 --> 00:15:24.183
He's on a bond or he's a splitter.

00:15:24.686 --> 00:15:25.206
You think he is?

00:15:25.246 --> 00:15:27.133
still, I feel like he's changed a bit.

00:15:27.133 --> 00:15:28.741
He has changed a little bit.

00:15:28.741 --> 00:15:31.469
I mean he he has some height on that jump for sure.

00:15:32.171 --> 00:15:35.546
I mean it looked like he was just throwing out an X for Xander or something.

00:15:35.546 --> 00:15:42.688
But I mean, look, bryson is a great player, 100% like, and he can play.

00:15:42.688 --> 00:16:03.650
But to all those saying that he deserves to be on the Ryder Cup yeah, maybe, but what I mentioned to you guys in the chat, it's like what we don't have as far as USA Ryder Cup is a player that can unite a team, and I think that's what we're missing and I don't think Bryson is the answer to that.

00:16:04.120 --> 00:16:05.424
I don't think he's the answer at all.

00:16:05.927 --> 00:16:13.070
Yeah, so we need someone like such as like a I don't know if JT is like a uniter, like like.

00:16:13.070 --> 00:16:19.994
We need someone like a, someone to unite the team, and I just don't think the US team has that currently.

00:16:20.495 --> 00:16:21.219
And hopefully Zach.

00:16:21.239 --> 00:16:28.332
Johnson knows that, sees that and he'll probably pick someone that can unite the team.

00:16:28.332 --> 00:16:36.379
I mean, if he's a good captain, so yeah, I if, if Bryson, or if, if anybody that deserves it.

00:16:36.419 --> 00:16:43.121
That's getting in Brian Harmon and he's getting in basically because he won a major and played on the PGA tour all season.

00:16:43.523 --> 00:16:44.345
Same with Wynnum Clark.

00:16:44.806 --> 00:16:48.011
Brooks Kepke played great in the majors.

00:16:48.011 --> 00:16:49.620
That's why he's there.

00:16:49.620 --> 00:16:56.284
You know, had Bryson played well on the majors and got enough points, then he would deserve to be there.

00:16:56.284 --> 00:17:03.594
But you know I wanted to put out there if a player shoots a 58 in the West Virginia Woods and nobody hears it, does it count?

00:17:03.956 --> 00:17:09.309
I mean look yeah, I mean I'm not gonna take anything away on a final round.

00:17:09.309 --> 00:17:11.324
To win a tournament is incredible.

00:17:12.086 --> 00:17:13.332
And he had a bogey on that round.

00:17:13.712 --> 00:17:15.641
So there's one other person that's done it.

00:17:16.323 --> 00:17:24.630
Well, I mean it was a part is it was a par 70 right, because he was 12 under, so I mean it wasn't 14 under, so there's a little bit there.

00:17:24.750 --> 00:17:25.932
So what did Jim Fjord do?

00:17:25.932 --> 00:17:29.105
Did Jim Fjord shoot 14 under no?

00:17:29.144 --> 00:17:29.807
he was 12.

00:17:29.807 --> 00:17:31.210
No, as well, he was 12.

00:17:31.210 --> 00:17:31.871
So there's a 70.

00:17:33.801 --> 00:17:33.922
Okay.

00:17:33.942 --> 00:17:35.705
Yeah, so, bryson I mean Bryson, he had.

00:17:35.925 --> 00:17:39.051
He had a E4 at the PGA championship.

00:17:39.051 --> 00:17:43.250
But yeah the next best is T20, T60 and missed cut at the Masters.

00:17:44.355 --> 00:17:44.817
Yeah, I don't.

00:17:44.817 --> 00:17:46.542
I don't deserve it.

00:17:46.563 --> 00:17:49.693
Yeah, only one according to how they pick the players.

00:17:50.115 --> 00:17:54.464
Yeah, I mean yeah, he's probably heating up, but I mean it.

00:17:56.307 --> 00:17:59.795
It doesn't mean a Ryder Cup because you, you want to live event.

00:17:59.795 --> 00:18:01.343
Yeah that's my opinion.

00:18:01.703 --> 00:18:04.711
I agree, he's only had four top 10s in live events.

00:18:04.711 --> 00:18:05.532
Yeah.

00:18:05.692 --> 00:18:08.646
And it's not like live events are stacked you know.

00:18:08.646 --> 00:18:12.136
Yeah, it's, it's golf, yeah.

00:18:12.758 --> 00:18:14.544
I definitely don't think it qualifies him.

00:18:14.544 --> 00:18:18.819
I you know a 58 does not mean you are automatically a fucking team.

00:18:18.819 --> 00:18:20.604
Error, the Ryder Cup Like it, doesn't.

00:18:20.604 --> 00:18:24.371
You have to man on a par 70, 1200.

00:18:24.371 --> 00:18:25.433
Okay, so that's a 60.

00:18:25.433 --> 00:18:29.492
So, yeah, I mean, usually the lowest we see is like a 62.

00:18:29.492 --> 00:18:31.619
So you've made two more putts.

00:18:31.619 --> 00:18:36.314
If he played better in the majors, yeah, potentially.

00:18:36.314 --> 00:18:43.865
If he got a couple more top 10s, like if he top 10, all the other majors and then he had that T4, whatever, you would probably have enough points.

00:18:44.367 --> 00:18:46.236
Yeah, totally, but he's.

00:18:46.236 --> 00:18:49.005
But the thing is, like I mentioned, he's not a uniter.

00:18:49.005 --> 00:18:49.886
We need that.

00:18:49.886 --> 00:18:50.769
That's what we need.

00:18:50.828 --> 00:18:59.429
We need a team aspect, we need a leader and the only reason he's playing in these events is because he won the US Open and had the five year exemption and all the majors.

00:18:59.569 --> 00:19:01.759
So he's not going to be playing in.

00:19:01.939 --> 00:19:08.868
Well, who knows, with how all this shit happens, what's going to happen next year with all this stuff, but I don't know, we'll see.

00:19:08.868 --> 00:19:10.152
I mean, I like Bryson.

00:19:10.152 --> 00:19:12.839
I beginning of the year before Liv happened.

00:19:12.839 --> 00:19:18.143
I said you know he was going to win the FedEx Cup, because I thought he just had found something and was was.

00:19:18.143 --> 00:19:24.968
Then he heard himself and then he stopped playing and and then said it's not about the money, and that's what I went on, Jesus.

00:19:24.968 --> 00:19:26.211
Okay, so who?

00:19:26.211 --> 00:19:26.373
I?

00:19:26.413 --> 00:19:28.480
mean, if Bryson's not the answer, who?

00:19:28.480 --> 00:19:31.332
Who is there out there that's not currently on the team?

00:19:31.834 --> 00:19:38.152
That's the hard part is I don't know who's who's out there that can be the you know the leader.

00:19:38.152 --> 00:19:40.277
Let's see.

00:19:40.277 --> 00:19:43.145
Like we got Wyndham Clark in, we got Brian Harmon.

00:19:43.145 --> 00:19:44.751
I don't feel like those guys are leaders.

00:19:44.751 --> 00:19:47.099
Brooks is not a leader.

00:19:47.662 --> 00:19:48.946
A homa is homa.

00:19:48.946 --> 00:19:50.270
We don't know yet he could be.

00:19:50.792 --> 00:19:51.856
I don't think you I don't.

00:19:51.977 --> 00:19:53.864
I don't see him as like a leader yeah.

00:19:53.923 --> 00:19:57.175
Cam Young could be I mean you?

00:19:57.175 --> 00:19:57.616
Well, we don't.

00:19:57.616 --> 00:20:00.566
He's so young in his career, we don't know he could be.

00:20:00.566 --> 00:20:03.575
You know he could get in there and just be crazy.

00:20:03.575 --> 00:20:08.345
Jordan Spieth, I think he can be considered a leader.

00:20:08.345 --> 00:20:11.068
You're on mute, joe, by the way.

00:20:13.153 --> 00:20:14.942
So you think Shuffler is a leader?

00:20:15.905 --> 00:20:29.940
I think so, according to like Jordan and Shuffler, like yeah, they're great players, but I don't see them as taking the charge and being like Mark Stone in the fucking locker room, being like let's get this, boys, you know, I just don't see them doing that.

00:20:30.642 --> 00:20:32.067
I could see, and that's what I'm talking about.

00:20:32.067 --> 00:20:33.673
I could see.

00:20:33.692 --> 00:20:34.936
Shuffler doing that.

00:20:34.936 --> 00:20:37.285
I could see two people doing that right now.

00:20:37.285 --> 00:20:43.366
That aren't locks, they would be captain's picks, and that's Keegan Bradley and Ricky Fowler.

00:20:43.366 --> 00:20:45.914
Keegan Bradley I.

00:20:45.974 --> 00:20:47.380
Rick is a little quiet, though I mean.

00:20:47.380 --> 00:20:49.911
I could see him I could see him like getting hyped up for it.

00:20:50.050 --> 00:20:50.413
Yes.

00:20:50.875 --> 00:20:53.703
I could see JT doing it, getting into it.

00:20:53.744 --> 00:21:05.409
Keegan Bradley, that fairytale episode where he talked about when they lost the Ryder Cup and he came home and his bag still wasn't unpacked because he was just so devastated by it that that meant something to him.

00:21:05.409 --> 00:21:16.151
You know, being there and and you know having an opportunity to win the Ryder Cup and losing and I mean it affected him and that's that's what I think they need.

00:21:16.151 --> 00:21:19.522
I think they need those players that it means something to them.

00:21:19.923 --> 00:21:20.164
Yeah.

00:21:20.465 --> 00:21:21.528
You know, it's not just hey.

00:21:21.568 --> 00:21:22.009
I got enough points.

00:21:22.009 --> 00:21:24.771
I'm going to say you don't know when you're getting back here.

00:21:24.771 --> 00:21:29.934
Let's fucking get it done this time, because you don't know when you're going to be having this chance again.

00:21:29.934 --> 00:21:31.781
Yeah, yeah, keegan.

00:21:31.781 --> 00:21:32.844
Keegan is a decent choice.

00:21:32.844 --> 00:21:36.011
I mean he plays with Jordan, so Xander is too quiet.

00:21:36.011 --> 00:21:37.747
I think at least two quiet.

00:21:37.787 --> 00:21:38.369
He's too quiet.

00:21:38.430 --> 00:21:39.413
Harman's too quiet.

00:21:39.855 --> 00:21:39.997
When.

00:21:40.037 --> 00:21:42.040
I'm Clark is too green, Too green.

00:21:42.040 --> 00:21:48.882
Shaeffler, again too green too, quiet Brooks, is he's going?

00:21:49.221 --> 00:21:51.571
to be in a corner again.

00:21:51.763 --> 00:21:52.816
They're, they're.

00:21:52.816 --> 00:21:58.344
You know I we're going to, I'm going to have to give the old tip of the cap to Greenlee.

00:21:58.344 --> 00:21:59.808
He's called this.

00:21:59.808 --> 00:22:02.837
He did weeks ago, weeks ago.

00:22:02.837 --> 00:22:10.883
He may be on to something because you go down the other ones Morakawa, he's complaining about dance, so that's, that's not.

00:22:10.883 --> 00:22:14.996
You know, sam Burns, jt I think JT is a guy.

00:22:14.996 --> 00:22:17.000
Yeah, not Danny McCarthy.

00:22:17.000 --> 00:22:20.087
Not Kitty Yama, not Will's Altaurs, because he can't even play.

00:22:20.087 --> 00:22:22.742
Not Harris English, maybe Tony Fina.

00:22:23.527 --> 00:22:25.355
I mean, tony Fina has the rally player.

00:22:25.355 --> 00:22:29.067
He's like the, he'd get the best out of some Hawaiian dances and it pump every one.

00:22:29.166 --> 00:22:32.948
He's like the, he's like the co-captain, like like he's the hype man yeah.

00:22:32.968 --> 00:22:36.621
The hype man Exactly, but I could see him taking on a role.

00:22:36.621 --> 00:22:39.286
I mean, you know, big family guy.

00:22:40.107 --> 00:22:41.670
One of the most likeable guys on tour.

00:22:41.769 --> 00:22:51.625
Exactly, you know, I think if Tony Fina came in a room was like dudes, what the let's go yeah they may go wow OK.

00:22:52.165 --> 00:22:54.291
Yeah, guys, what the hell.

00:22:54.311 --> 00:22:56.557
Yeah, but it takes him like he.

00:22:56.557 --> 00:22:58.142
It takes him doing that.

00:22:58.142 --> 00:23:00.468
I just don't see him doing that, you know.

00:23:00.468 --> 00:23:02.211
But has he been in a situation?

00:23:02.211 --> 00:23:03.424
But do I know him?

00:23:03.424 --> 00:23:04.529
I don't know him.

00:23:04.529 --> 00:23:05.776
Look at the other rider cups.

00:23:06.017 --> 00:23:06.921
Look at the other rider cups.

00:23:06.921 --> 00:23:07.261
You know.

00:23:07.983 --> 00:23:08.384
Tiger.

00:23:08.505 --> 00:23:09.426
Phil DJ.

00:23:09.426 --> 00:23:10.308
All these.

00:23:10.308 --> 00:23:11.512
You know power.

00:23:11.512 --> 00:23:17.967
You know figures that are if you're in a room with they, they lead the show.

00:23:17.967 --> 00:23:19.611
You know they use their.

00:23:20.251 --> 00:23:20.692
After this.

00:23:20.692 --> 00:23:23.367
The Wyndham championship I would love.

00:23:23.367 --> 00:23:35.419
I would love to see JT in it because the way he fought back to almost make the playoffs like that fucking windmill spin club shot.

00:23:35.419 --> 00:23:43.184
That was nasty and I mean, he knew that he had to make that chip shot and he gave that shit a run.

00:23:43.425 --> 00:23:44.490
Oh, how did that not drop?

00:23:44.730 --> 00:23:48.301
Katie was folding laundry and she snapped her head back because it was.

00:23:48.301 --> 00:23:52.632
I mean, it was so close and like so close.

00:23:52.632 --> 00:24:02.040
I think, I think personally, like JT would be the player to be the leader and unfortunately I don't think he's going to make it.

00:24:02.040 --> 00:24:03.484
I don't think he's going to be captain as big.

00:24:04.867 --> 00:24:08.224
But I don't think, you don't think so I think he is going to.

00:24:08.826 --> 00:24:11.211
I don't think so, but I mean I'd love to see it.

00:24:11.540 --> 00:24:20.590
I think you'd have to get you'd have to get rid of either Homer Cam Young, jordan speed, keegan Bradley, colin Mark or Ricky in the top seven through 12.

00:24:20.590 --> 00:24:23.385
Homer Young or who?

00:24:23.385 --> 00:24:27.557
Ricky speed Keegan Bradley, colin Mark or Fowler.

00:24:27.557 --> 00:24:29.624
I think he could get more of miracle code.

00:24:29.624 --> 00:24:34.480
I wouldn't be mad.

00:24:34.991 --> 00:24:37.084
Yeah, I think that's the one you could get.

00:24:37.084 --> 00:24:42.229
You got to have some experience I think Homa gets really hyped for the you know and you know how about?

00:24:42.229 --> 00:24:43.092
I mean In the Predecessor Cup.

00:24:43.092 --> 00:24:44.416
I mean we saw him get hyped.

00:24:44.829 --> 00:24:47.239
Bones being there, you know yeah totally.

00:24:47.239 --> 00:24:51.661
And that's a huge asset to not just JT Totally.

00:24:52.009 --> 00:25:02.380
I mean to the whole locker room, to the whole team to the other caddies like that's a you know, oh Jude, please, it's a captain situation where JT they all know that he has Tiger's ear.

00:25:02.861 --> 00:25:02.961
Yep.

00:25:03.811 --> 00:25:07.278
You know, and Tiger's gonna be in the ear JT, I think, I don't think it's gonna happen.

00:25:07.278 --> 00:25:13.497
I want it to happen and I think it'd be great if it happened, because JT comes alive in those situations.

00:25:13.497 --> 00:25:16.362
So we'll see, we'll see.

00:25:16.362 --> 00:25:17.663
Do you want to put some money on it?

00:25:18.130 --> 00:25:19.935
You want to put a like an adult beverage on it.

00:25:19.935 --> 00:25:23.134
Joe, I don't drink tru-lies.

00:25:23.394 --> 00:25:26.494
No, we don't, I'll take it tru-ly, I'll buy you, whatever you want.

00:25:26.595 --> 00:25:30.057
Whatever you want, I'll buy you some celtzer foofy.

00:25:30.076 --> 00:25:41.703
Okay, so if JT makes it, I buy you a tru-ly Yep, and if JT does not make it, you buy me a double try you an old fashioned neat.

00:25:41.930 --> 00:25:45.737
Buy me a $130 bottle of bourbon, totally Okay, I hope you make it.

00:25:45.737 --> 00:25:46.417
I hope you win.

00:25:46.617 --> 00:25:47.298
I hope you win Well.

00:25:47.480 --> 00:25:53.896
Favve sent me a message asking if Jeremy was okay, if he was gonna, cause JT didn't make it to the playoffs.

00:25:53.896 --> 00:25:56.541
I see you have a speed send, so he's all right, speed send, I'm good.

00:25:58.170 --> 00:26:02.019
Speaking of, I mean, that was some of the best drama we've seen in a while.

00:26:04.050 --> 00:26:06.336
Adam Scott, fighting it, fighting to get it in.

00:26:07.490 --> 00:26:12.461
I mean, JT has not missed the playoffs since the beginning of his career, like eight years right.

00:26:12.461 --> 00:26:17.376
Only Couture is the only player left that hasn't yeah, I mean it's it provided great drama.

00:26:17.376 --> 00:26:27.954
He's a well-known, recognized player and it I had to tune in, like obviously I had Russell Henley and the birdies and bourbon wanted done so yeah, you made some waves there.

00:26:27.954 --> 00:26:36.932
Got close, but to see like JT battling it out and that was great drama, that was really.

00:26:36.932 --> 00:26:39.278
I feel like that was really good for the PGA tour.

00:26:39.852 --> 00:26:40.557
Yeah, I agree.

00:26:41.069 --> 00:26:41.310
It was.

00:26:41.551 --> 00:26:49.034
I just I would like to see them try to bring that kind of drama to the couple events that preceded these.

00:26:49.034 --> 00:26:52.201
You know the three M and and what was the other one?

00:26:52.201 --> 00:26:54.637
I remember, but just to you know majors.

00:26:54.637 --> 00:26:59.938
Well, I'm not the majors, they, they, these last couple events, what the?

00:26:59.978 --> 00:27:01.330
hell yeah, the open.

00:27:01.330 --> 00:27:03.880
The open was one of the last three M not a lot of drama.

00:27:04.481 --> 00:27:05.045
Shut up.

00:27:05.045 --> 00:27:07.574
It's true I'm talking about.

00:27:07.574 --> 00:27:08.698
I'm not talking about that.

00:27:08.698 --> 00:27:13.210
The majors always have an audience and attention you want to watch because it's the majors.

00:27:13.349 --> 00:27:14.375
I'm talking about drama, though.

00:27:14.650 --> 00:27:30.297
I'm talking about these other events after the open that kind of hit a lull and nobody's really excited about when them three M that they could, you know, really utilize this ranking and where you are and how many points and.

00:27:30.317 --> 00:27:30.897
I think that was.

00:27:30.897 --> 00:27:39.532
What was great is, JT was in the quest to get into the playoffs and he never played the three M and he committed to it like.

00:27:39.532 --> 00:27:42.326
And then he played the wind up because he's trying to get in like.

00:27:42.326 --> 00:27:43.852
That's awesome.

00:27:45.990 --> 00:27:50.941
So 617 points got 70th place.

00:27:50.941 --> 00:27:56.161
Jt was 71 and he got 608.

00:27:56.849 --> 00:27:59.578
So it was like three points, shy, right, yeah.

00:27:59.578 --> 00:28:02.718
Well, no, it was nine, nine points, yeah.

00:28:03.410 --> 00:28:03.490
They.

00:28:03.490 --> 00:28:07.286
If you go to the decimals, yeah, it was probably like eight, eight and three quarters or something.

00:28:07.286 --> 00:28:10.056
So I mean, gosh, that's close.

00:28:10.056 --> 00:28:12.662
That's close, but I did.

00:28:12.662 --> 00:28:15.356
Let's see before we get into that.

00:28:15.356 --> 00:28:16.790
Let's do this first, let's get.

00:28:16.790 --> 00:28:20.140
I want to give Harry a little minute here because it was his first year on tour.

00:28:20.140 --> 00:28:27.698
He said after after the season wraps up and I know he's getting married that he'll come on and talk about his experience on the tour this year.

00:28:27.698 --> 00:28:29.511
So we'll have that later on.

00:28:29.511 --> 00:28:33.981
But he finished 88th at 499 points.

00:28:33.981 --> 00:28:36.636
It looks like 600 points is going to be the break.

00:28:36.636 --> 00:28:38.551
You know it.

00:28:38.551 --> 00:28:43.702
The schedule should mimic next season as far as the events and points and everything.

00:28:43.702 --> 00:28:48.520
Um, he played in 28 events, uh, made the cut in 16 of those.

00:28:48.520 --> 00:28:51.479
He had five top 25s and three top 10s.

00:28:51.479 --> 00:28:54.939
I made a cool $1.4 million on the year.

00:28:55.809 --> 00:29:00.518
So he's in right that I was trying to see if you can find that, Jeremy.

00:29:00.931 --> 00:29:04.520
Well, I don't know if the 125 get to keep their card or cause I know they changed it.

00:29:04.520 --> 00:29:09.701
The playoffs it's 70, but I don't know if it's a hundred, or if it's 125 get to keep it.

00:29:10.851 --> 00:29:21.641
So he's no laying up today and Zach Blair finished like 126 and he's like a good friend of the no laying up podcast, so um they, he was like he still gets to play in like 18 events next year.

00:29:24.355 --> 00:29:30.276
So I he's going to have priority course, various status and then, I'm sure, with the sponsors, exemptions and how?

00:29:30.296 --> 00:29:33.855
so here here he was 88th, you said finished, finished, 88th yeah.

00:29:33.855 --> 00:29:38.880
Yeah, so here that's the 88th top player in the league in the tour.

00:29:38.880 --> 00:29:40.655
Yeah, he's in, he's got it.

00:29:40.675 --> 00:29:41.298
Yeah, yeah, he's in.

00:29:41.298 --> 00:29:59.361
So players who finish outside the top 70 will play in the FedEx Cup fall series to basically improve their positioning and then at the conclusion of the season, the top 125 retain their card and they get full, full exemption into the next full event fields, including the players championship.

00:29:59.890 --> 00:30:02.555
So as long as he doesn't drop out of 125 in the fall series.

00:30:02.576 --> 00:30:03.497
He's got his card.

00:30:03.557 --> 00:30:06.750
He's good, harry's good, yeah Cause.

00:30:06.750 --> 00:30:08.855
Yeah, he should be fine he is.

00:30:08.855 --> 00:30:15.875
Yeah, he'll take that, that 499 that he accumulated on this season, add to it and then he'll have a new total at the end of the fall season.

00:30:15.875 --> 00:30:16.817
That's how they're doing it.

00:30:16.817 --> 00:30:21.338
So then I looked at the, the bottom.

00:30:21.338 --> 00:30:37.894
Uh, uh, call them the, uh, the lucky seven, um, the guys that are uh 70, 69, 68, 67 on down right, and um looked at their OWGR rankings.

00:30:37.894 --> 00:30:43.423
The lowest OWGR is 159.

00:30:43.423 --> 00:30:45.994
And guess who that is?

00:30:46.950 --> 00:30:47.010
And.

00:30:47.030 --> 00:30:49.618
Griffin no close, not bad.

00:30:49.618 --> 00:30:50.471
Uh.

00:30:50.471 --> 00:30:56.402
Vincent Norman um, he, uh is 64th in the FedEx Cup.

00:30:56.402 --> 00:30:57.810
Oh wait, no, that's not right.

00:30:57.810 --> 00:30:59.635
68.

00:30:59.635 --> 00:31:00.838
68.

00:31:00.838 --> 00:31:05.116
Yeah, and uh won 1.5 million on the season.

00:31:05.116 --> 00:31:07.814
He played 26 rounds.

00:31:07.814 --> 00:31:11.478
Uh, nick Hardy is next up.

00:31:11.478 --> 00:31:16.277
He's 139, won two and a half million dollars.

00:31:16.277 --> 00:31:18.442
Finished 50th in the FedEx Cup.

00:31:18.442 --> 00:31:20.193
He played in 29 events.

00:31:20.193 --> 00:31:27.970
It's, it's interesting, these guys, they played a lot of events 27, 30, 29, 28, 28.

00:31:27.970 --> 00:31:34.272
Um, but they're all in the hundred plus OWGR, and they're in um.

00:31:34.272 --> 00:31:38.018
Sam Stevens uh, $2 million on the year.

00:31:38.018 --> 00:31:42.084
Finished 64th um 115 in the world.

00:31:42.084 --> 00:31:44.135
Bo Hossler got in.

00:31:44.135 --> 00:31:47.940
He's 114 in the world, played in 28 events, $2.1 million.

00:31:47.940 --> 00:31:54.083
And so the guy who won the least is uh 1.5 million.

00:31:54.083 --> 00:31:57.259
That's Norman, and he's the lowest OWGR rank.

00:31:57.259 --> 00:31:59.596
So he's very happy to be there.

00:31:59.596 --> 00:32:02.797
Yeah, he's very happy to be there.

00:32:03.631 --> 00:32:07.777
So I mean, just make the cut, you're set for life.

00:32:07.777 --> 00:32:08.913
You just make the cut.

00:32:09.394 --> 00:32:09.615
Yeah.

00:32:10.490 --> 00:32:19.061
It'd be interesting to see how many of those, those 50 to 70 players, make it into the um BMW yeah, the BMW yeah.

00:32:19.383 --> 00:32:19.863
Top 50.

00:32:19.863 --> 00:32:20.825
I like this format.

00:32:20.825 --> 00:32:23.376
I think I think 70 is a really solid number.

00:32:23.376 --> 00:32:25.435
I think 125 was too many.

00:32:25.435 --> 00:32:29.359
That's half half of the tour gets to the end of the playoffs.

00:32:29.359 --> 00:32:34.250
I like they're being a little bit more on the line and you have to be, you have to be, you know.

00:32:34.250 --> 00:32:45.335
I mean I know the NFL, half the league makes the playoffs and and baseball used to be I mean baseball back in the day was one team from each league with the best record play in the world series.

00:32:45.335 --> 00:32:50.000
Um, playoffs and sports has come a long way and I and I like this.

00:32:50.000 --> 00:32:51.675
I like it at 70.

00:32:51.675 --> 00:32:52.914
I think it's a good solid number.

00:32:52.914 --> 00:32:56.759
Um, let me look at all the guys that aren't making it.

00:32:56.759 --> 00:32:57.721
That would have made it last year.

00:32:57.721 --> 00:33:01.795
Yeah, that they're out, so it's going to.

00:33:01.795 --> 00:33:10.873
I mean, I think a lot of these guys that didn't make it, that were close, are going to be really looking at their schedule and determining did I play enough events, should I played more?

00:33:10.873 --> 00:33:13.755
And uh, yeah, we'll see.

00:33:14.416 --> 00:33:17.077
Yeah, I think it's mixed it up a little bit, which is which is nice.

00:33:17.077 --> 00:33:27.078
I mean, like I said earlier, is uh, jt being the most notable player that has not met, you know, missed the playoffs which is I think it's good.

00:33:27.078 --> 00:33:33.255
I mean it, it screams there's new players coming out, there's better players.

00:33:33.255 --> 00:33:37.557
If you want to say that, um, yeah.

00:33:37.938 --> 00:33:38.159
I think.

00:33:38.159 --> 00:33:39.602
I think I think it's good.

00:33:39.602 --> 00:33:50.615
I mean I think it was great for golf, but, um, yeah, I mean JT being a notable player and missing in the playoffs is pretty interesting, and I think it's great for the PGA tour.

00:33:50.615 --> 00:33:53.454
Yeah, and I think the as much as I don't want to see it.

00:33:54.317 --> 00:33:54.798
I think it's good.

00:33:54.798 --> 00:34:00.073
I think events like the Shriners, especially for us, since we can go, we're going to see some new players there.

00:34:00.073 --> 00:34:02.018
Yeah, yeah.

00:34:03.290 --> 00:34:15.920
Now I wonder if, if you didn't make the play or if you made the playoffs, so let's say you miss, you don't make the BMW when you're 50 through 70.

00:34:15.920 --> 00:34:18.657
Are you eligible for the fall events?

00:34:18.657 --> 00:34:19.833
You think so?

00:34:19.833 --> 00:34:24.936
Right, yeah, but would I guess if you make enough points, you're not.

00:34:24.936 --> 00:34:30.900
If you I'm just thinking of is it advantage to have those extra points going into the fall events?

00:34:30.900 --> 00:34:40.838
But if you make a lot of, because points are quadrupled, um, for this, the first two, um, but if you make enough point, you're going to still be in the playoffs.

00:34:43.233 --> 00:34:55.699
So, but if you, just if you get to the BMW and you don't make the 30, those I have to look at that and see yeah, so all players for all players Yep Are with status for 2023, are eligible to play in the fall series.

00:34:57.010 --> 00:34:59.778
But I think if you made it to the BMW you're fine.

00:34:59.778 --> 00:35:02.217
You don't have to worry about coming to the track.

00:35:02.257 --> 00:35:05.396
Yeah, a lot of them are probably going to take that extra time off.

00:35:05.597 --> 00:35:09.557
Yeah, they'll be fine, I like it.

00:35:09.557 --> 00:35:09.898
I like it.

00:35:09.898 --> 00:35:15.382
Oh, what about um uh Phoenix not being a uh signature event?

00:35:15.382 --> 00:35:16.534
There's another new name for him now.

00:35:17.090 --> 00:35:18.074
Oh, is that changing it again?

00:35:18.675 --> 00:35:23.478
Yes, it's a signature event, so we've had designated elevated signature.

00:35:23.478 --> 00:35:40.039
Interesting yeah, so it is uh, the, the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, which I think is just absurd to make a celebrity pro-am a signature event.

00:35:40.039 --> 00:35:43.097
The Genesis is back as one.

00:35:43.097 --> 00:35:45.697
Arnold Palmer is back as one.

00:35:45.697 --> 00:35:48.132
Rbc heritage is back as one.

00:35:48.132 --> 00:35:51.556
Uh, wells Fargo at Quill Hollow.

00:35:51.556 --> 00:36:01.135
Then the memorial, the travelers, genesis, scottish Open.

00:36:01.135 --> 00:36:06.619
Oh wait, no that's, we need some fucking new golf courses.

00:36:06.619 --> 00:36:07.460
Did you say RBC?

00:36:07.460 --> 00:36:09.384
Heritage is still or is not one.

00:36:09.951 --> 00:36:13.847
And then you look at, well, my printer printed this out so damn small.

00:36:13.847 --> 00:36:17.659
Even with my super eyes I can't tell the difference between an asterisk and a pound sign.

00:36:17.659 --> 00:36:19.114
Did it turn on the paper?

00:36:19.155 --> 00:36:19.817
yellow also.

00:36:20.210 --> 00:36:26.655
No, I bought some yellow paper to print the uh CTPs on and it's too thin, so I'm like, well, fuck it, I'll just use it for my regular paper.

00:36:26.655 --> 00:36:28.494
But that may be a mistake.

00:36:28.494 --> 00:36:33.047
Uh, travelers is a signature event, would you say heritage.

00:36:33.751 --> 00:36:35.458
Uh, the Harbor Town, yeah, RBC heritage.

00:36:36.050 --> 00:36:40.217
Uh, let's see Wells Fargo memorial.

00:36:40.217 --> 00:36:46.168
Yes, it is, yes, that is a plus, yeah, interesting.

00:36:46.168 --> 00:36:50.119
So the last one on the schedule is the travelers.

00:36:52.576 --> 00:36:53.951
Because was it same, was it Raka's?

00:36:53.990 --> 00:36:56.335
mortgage this year, or was it travelers?

00:36:56.335 --> 00:36:57.378
It was travelers, right.

00:36:57.378 --> 00:36:57.559
Yeah.

00:36:57.559 --> 00:37:03.956
Yeah, the memorial, the US Open and the travelers signature, major signature.

00:37:03.956 --> 00:37:16.920
And the Gensis Scottish Open is just a co-sanction with DP Tour events, not a signature, so it's going to be interesting.

00:37:16.920 --> 00:37:21.313
I mean, the offseason for golf is going to be quite entertaining, yeah.

00:37:22.317 --> 00:37:23.280
Quite, yeah, it does.

00:37:23.280 --> 00:37:28.152
It does add some interesting situation to the offseason, for sure.

00:37:28.521 --> 00:37:34.724
Yeah, I think it'd be helpful if they kind of push the stories a little bit like positioning and just like you said earlier.

00:37:34.724 --> 00:37:36.248
It's like they need to make it interesting.

00:37:36.248 --> 00:37:39.887
Let's keep track of where these guys are at, like when they're hitting the ball.

00:37:39.887 --> 00:37:40.449
You know what I mean.

00:37:41.199 --> 00:37:53.507
Like I know they update stuff, but just let's, let's know where they're at and there's so much tech going on now in TV and with apps and I mean, like the Masters, they get it.

00:37:53.507 --> 00:37:56.384
Yeah, try to bring some of that to these events.

00:37:56.384 --> 00:37:58.409
Yeah, make them entertaining.

00:37:58.409 --> 00:38:01.048
Don't just show Rory Rom and Sheffler.

00:38:01.048 --> 00:38:10.471
I mean everybody wants to see those guys, but you know there's there's 70 other golf shots from 67 other players that people want to see.

00:38:11.221 --> 00:38:17.606
Well, if you're able to expand the storylines of other players, that just promotes the longevity of, like, the players that are coming up.

00:38:17.606 --> 00:38:28.572
So obviously there's nothing wrong with that, because anybody that's younger than Shuffler or Rory or JT or whoever they're going to be the future face of the PGA Tour.

00:38:28.820 --> 00:38:43.130
So why don't you invest that time into them now to build the stories so that we make us find a reason for us to, like Wyndham Clark Totally, tell a story that's going to make us go damn, let's watch, you know yeah.

00:38:45.744 --> 00:38:47.230
Like I mean obviously in the Instagram age.

00:38:47.230 --> 00:39:11.215
Like I'm a big fan of Minwoo Lee currently because I see him on Instagram and like he's, he has like a tagline and he's creating a story for himself and he'll probably be one of the up and comers and you know, it's just create the storylines for the future people that are coming up behind your current superstars, because you have to develop that story that way.

00:39:11.215 --> 00:39:15.128
We continue to be interested in the tour, or else you're fucked.

00:39:15.349 --> 00:39:16.512
Tiger's not playing right now.

00:39:16.512 --> 00:39:28.132
No he's not out there to dominate the headlines, and there's only so much expectations Rory Rom and Shephler can meet in the eyes of the golfing world.

00:39:28.132 --> 00:39:37.385
So let's, let's try to find some other stars are not necessarily stars, just people, interesting characters, interesting characters, you know it's, it's literally.

00:39:37.385 --> 00:39:45.831
At the end of the day, it's WWE, I mean look at what the freaking cranberry drink and Harry Hall video did, or Harry Higgs video did for him.

00:39:46.452 --> 00:39:47.181
What did you say Is?

00:39:47.201 --> 00:39:47.382
that?

00:39:47.382 --> 00:39:47.903
What did you say?

00:39:48.500 --> 00:39:59.273
I said at the end of the day it's fucking WWE yeah let's bring characters sell like create characters.

00:39:59.273 --> 00:40:05.447
You have a lot of characters on tour, make them develop their stories.

00:40:05.447 --> 00:40:10.807
I mean, this is Vince McMahon playbook, like if Vince McMahon has a fucking book, read it.

00:40:10.807 --> 00:40:15.190
I mean, you're developing characters, you're developing storylines.

00:40:15.190 --> 00:40:17.137
Like, make it a story.

00:40:17.518 --> 00:40:28.686
Exactly, I don't think anyone's going to line up to buy a stuffed Wyndham Clark wrestler style toy, but maybe Rory McElrides?

00:40:29.139 --> 00:40:30.003
You never know.

00:40:32.260 --> 00:40:46.170
But I mean in the same like in the scheme of things, like if you develop characters in your tour, people are going to be drawn to those characters from those stories and it's going to create a loyal fan base going on into the future.

00:40:47.101 --> 00:40:48.626
Maybe that's why I live did their teams.

00:40:51.159 --> 00:40:54.809
Maybe, but I don't think they're doing a great job at selling the story of the character.

00:40:57.202 --> 00:41:08.831
I mean, their whole playbook is these are the Yankees, the four races of the Yankees, you know, and I understand that like dynasties and all that shit.

00:41:08.831 --> 00:41:20.552
But we, as psychogolfers that we are, like we want to know the player and we want to be able to relate to them and we want to watch them fail and we want to watch them excel.

00:41:20.552 --> 00:41:31.248
So create the storyline and if you are able to do that with the up and comers, they're going to, you're going to have viewers for their entire career.

00:41:31.248 --> 00:41:43.440
Just like I was a kid, I watched fucking Ahmed Johnson and Sean the heartbreak kid Bret Hart, you know, like there were storylines, I mean.

00:41:43.460 --> 00:41:51.447
I don't want, I don't want fabricated storylines, but I want to know what's and that's what's great about the Netflix thing.

00:41:51.447 --> 00:41:57.721
I wish they could push that out quicker than they than they are, you know because that would get.

00:41:57.961 --> 00:42:02.565
it would draw people here before the before Eastlake, if that dropped before Eastlake.

00:42:02.565 --> 00:42:07.291
Yeah, I mean, you know they can capture the drama leading up to Eastlake, before Eastlake.

00:42:07.521 --> 00:42:08.806
Yeah, like a reality show.

00:42:08.806 --> 00:42:14.492
But I mean not a reality show, not a fabricated reality show, but something that they can do.

00:42:14.492 --> 00:42:22.670
And I mean that would be insane if they could do that, Like if we could follow the players along their path throughout the course of the year.

00:42:22.670 --> 00:42:29.028
I mean not not real time, that's obviously doable, but have you guys watched the quarterback thing on on Netflix.

00:42:29.028 --> 00:42:35.311
Yeah, yeah, no with with Mariota and no, I saw that.

00:42:35.311 --> 00:42:36.994
I saw that I had heard about it.

00:42:36.994 --> 00:42:38.302
Brad Marks told me about it.

00:42:38.422 --> 00:42:41.429
It's really good, it's really easy, casey Fence.

00:42:41.429 --> 00:42:43.760
So I guess yeah, I know it was really.

00:42:43.760 --> 00:42:50.612
I mean, I didn't want to watch it and Erica was watching it and I it was good, it was really good.

00:42:51.159 --> 00:42:51.860
Yeah, I think.

00:42:51.860 --> 00:42:52.501
I think it's been.

00:42:52.501 --> 00:42:57.690
It's been such a long time since we saw Netflix.

00:42:57.690 --> 00:42:59.032
What was it called PGA?

00:42:59.072 --> 00:42:59.353
Tour.

00:42:59.733 --> 00:43:00.273
Full swing.

00:43:00.273 --> 00:43:05.411
Like if they could drop those like in four episode increments throughout the year.

00:43:05.411 --> 00:43:08.786
Like oh yeah four drops, like I think it would help.

00:43:08.786 --> 00:43:29.331
And if they were able to create characters and I'm using it loosely because I don't want it fabricated, of course, yeah, but if they could create storylines throughout the season, you know, dropping increments like ABCD, like three episodes each drop, like throughout the year, I think that would be sick.

00:43:30.072 --> 00:43:38.804
It would be nice, like the, the, the three events or the four events in April, when May hits, those come out in the four events in.

00:43:38.804 --> 00:43:52.144
May, when they're done, then they come out of June, you know, and just that way, you're watching something as something's progressing, yeah, in front of you, and you're like, oh shit, I remember this guy from episode back in April and now he's leading the tournament.

00:43:52.144 --> 00:43:53.248
I'm going to tune in to watch.

00:43:53.500 --> 00:43:55.407
Yeah, I don't remember people going now.

00:43:55.539 --> 00:43:56.443
Who the hell is that guy?

00:43:57.427 --> 00:44:18.547
Yeah, I just I think PGA could do a really good job, because there there are a shit ton of characters on tour, and if they took Vince McMahon's fucking playbook, I mean they can make it messy TV but don't fabricate the shit like no, you know it's not a storyline, but you can create storylines.

00:44:21.043 --> 00:44:29.784
OK, so what is, as you guys this, what is something that Rory can do, this playoffs that nobody else has done before?

00:44:33.960 --> 00:44:38.306
Win three that excups actually is already one.

00:44:38.306 --> 00:44:38.527
Three.

00:44:38.880 --> 00:44:39.121
He's one.

00:44:39.121 --> 00:44:39.340
Three.

00:44:40.344 --> 00:44:41.027
Win four.

00:44:41.146 --> 00:44:41.929
That excursion.

00:44:41.929 --> 00:44:44.626
Well, that was the obvious.

00:44:44.626 --> 00:44:46.512
But let's outside the box.

00:44:46.512 --> 00:44:49.300
Any guesses, any guesses.

00:44:49.300 --> 00:44:53.144
No, no, no, nobody has ever won back to back.

00:44:53.144 --> 00:44:59.992
Oh yeah, so he's going, he's going for the back to back again for the third time.

00:44:59.992 --> 00:45:03.128
It's going to be interesting.

00:45:03.128 --> 00:45:05.041
It's going to be interesting, Joe.

00:45:05.041 --> 00:45:08.961
Get the odds ready and we'll go over that Speaking of so.

00:45:09.003 --> 00:45:11.989
CBS has taken over Eastlake this year, right, yep?

00:45:11.989 --> 00:45:18.266
Did you see that interview with the executive producer and he was talking about the angles that they're trying to get?

00:45:18.266 --> 00:45:29.824
No, I was I saw like a video about it and he's talking about like the thing that sticks out to me is like, yeah, we're going to have a boat, can we're going to be able to get on the boat?

00:45:29.824 --> 00:45:32.590
We're going to get the camera across the lake.

00:45:34.079 --> 00:45:37.994
So I'm interested to see them take over it and maybe we get some new.

00:45:37.994 --> 00:45:40.027
Maybe we get some new angles this year.

00:45:40.179 --> 00:45:43.148
Well, you know, they're behind the masters and the master's footage is pretty damn good.

00:45:43.208 --> 00:45:48.858
So yeah, I mean it could be interesting, Could be.

00:45:48.858 --> 00:45:51.045
I thought it's currently.

00:45:51.427 --> 00:45:51.768
All right.

00:45:51.768 --> 00:45:54.820
So the tour this week?

00:45:54.820 --> 00:45:56.384
Oh, I don't want that.

00:45:56.384 --> 00:46:02.826
The Saint Jude championship is at.

00:46:02.826 --> 00:46:06.293
It's going back to Memphis TPC, what's it called?

00:46:08.465 --> 00:46:11.144
TPC Saint Jude, no no South.

00:46:12.141 --> 00:46:13.204
I can never remember that.

00:46:14.782 --> 00:46:15.746
Yeah, I had it back there.

00:46:16.347 --> 00:46:18.744
Yeah, tons, tons of you know.

00:46:18.744 --> 00:46:24.588
All the top players, of course are here for this, except for the ones that are high in the rankings, that are in live.

00:46:24.588 --> 00:46:36.487
Rory is trying to go back for back and there's just all kinds of BS on here, so it's a 7200 yard par 70 course A Ron Pritchard design.

00:46:36.487 --> 00:46:38.704
Joe is super familiar with his work.

00:46:40.260 --> 00:46:45.681
He would green and fuzzy Zeller were player consultants this spring mark.

00:46:45.681 --> 00:46:53.148
The course is full conversion to Zeon, zoya, there's one to 16 and 18 were finished up.

00:46:53.148 --> 00:46:55.003
So it's all Zoysia now.

00:46:55.003 --> 00:46:57.650
Which great waters.

00:46:57.650 --> 00:46:59.425
Holy crap, that grass.

00:46:59.425 --> 00:47:05.708
I want it in my living room, it is amazing zigzagging across the fairway.

00:47:07.900 --> 00:47:12.351
The South winds record is 264, shot by Brooks Kepka.

00:47:12.351 --> 00:47:22.730
The South wind record is 61 by Tom Lewis, and Alatoris is your defending champion, not in the field.

00:47:22.730 --> 00:47:24.704
Sorry, willie Z.

00:47:24.704 --> 00:47:28.264
And yeah, that's all I got.

00:47:28.264 --> 00:47:31.168
So, joe, let's go over the odds.

00:47:31.168 --> 00:47:35.490
I'll update our picks, okay, from last week.

00:47:36.320 --> 00:47:38.286
I'm saying Jude, championship favorite.

00:47:38.286 --> 00:47:40.130
Scotty Schaeffler seven and one.

00:47:40.130 --> 00:47:41.601
John Rom eight and a half to one.

00:47:41.601 --> 00:47:43.646
Rory McRoy, nine to one.

00:47:43.646 --> 00:47:46.632
Patrick Cantley, xander Shavley 18 to one.

00:47:46.632 --> 00:47:48.284
Victor Hovland 20 to one.

00:47:48.284 --> 00:47:51.724
Terrell Hatton, cullamore Cowell 28 to one.

00:47:51.724 --> 00:47:56.186
Ricky Fowler, tommy Fleetwood, sam Burns, tom Kim 30 to one.

00:47:56.186 --> 00:48:01.690
Wyndham Clark, jordan Spieth, matt Fitzpatrick 30 to 33 to one.

00:48:01.690 --> 00:48:06.947
Brian Harmon, max Homa, tony Fienow, jason Day 35 to one.

00:48:06.947 --> 00:48:09.012
Cam Young 40 to one.

00:48:09.012 --> 00:48:11.925
Hedekki Russell Henley, 45 to one.

00:48:11.925 --> 00:48:16.228
Wilson J, seps, Traca, justin Rose 50 to one.

00:48:16.228 --> 00:48:20.025
You got Eric Kohl 150 to one.

00:48:20.025 --> 00:48:23.333
All the way at the bottom, 300 to 350 to one.

00:48:23.333 --> 00:48:31.067
Maddie Niesmith, niesmith, at 301, you got Taylor Montgomery and Mackenzie Hughes.

00:48:35.873 --> 00:48:41.704
I'm losing my mind right now because I have a team up making the fucking yeah, he's 50, 53.

00:48:42.472 --> 00:48:42.974
Good for him.

00:48:42.974 --> 00:48:46.038
He needs to come on the podcast.

00:48:46.811 --> 00:48:53.320
Yeah, I've extended him an invite more than once, but he's a busy man, busy man.

00:48:53.320 --> 00:48:54.655
I know he's going to try.

00:48:54.655 --> 00:49:01.936
He said he said he wanted to do it, but that was before the season started and there's a lot going on during the middle of the year.

00:49:01.996 --> 00:49:02.739
How much did he make this year?

00:49:02.739 --> 00:49:05.556
And there's a down time coming, so like three million.

00:49:05.889 --> 00:49:10.753
He's probably got a social media manager now the bear, the gatekeeper.

00:49:15.478 --> 00:49:15.980
Ah, there we are.

00:49:15.980 --> 00:49:21.297
Ok, sorry, I just I'm still learning how to use my Mac.

00:49:21.297 --> 00:49:29.335
One of my windows just disappeared and it happened to be the main window for everything, so my apologies for that.

00:49:29.335 --> 00:49:33.440
All right, so we're just figuring out where we were with our picks last week.

00:49:33.440 --> 00:49:36.259
So, yeah, the gut feeling.

00:49:36.259 --> 00:49:40.936
Ryan Moore visiting new level that was a crap bus.

00:49:40.936 --> 00:49:42.012
He missed this.

00:49:42.012 --> 00:49:45.094
Missed it by one stroke, so I got no points for that.

00:49:45.094 --> 00:49:49.650
Joe JT post and, and then Russell Henley and the one and done so.

00:49:50.090 --> 00:49:56.032
Look, at this guy making a little comeback after you know three out of the last six miss cuts.

00:49:56.032 --> 00:49:59.697
Then Jeremy had Sam Burns who finished 14th.

00:49:59.697 --> 00:50:09.817
So currently, as we go into the final three events, oh hey, do you want to carry this through the fall event and have like Total total year?

00:50:11.833 --> 00:50:13.597
I think we do like a mini fall event.

00:50:13.898 --> 00:50:14.340
Many fall.

00:50:15.110 --> 00:50:21.713
OK, I think we all pick like one player for the fall, and then we just follow for the fall, but is it like six events?

00:50:24.114 --> 00:50:24.396
I don't know.

00:50:24.396 --> 00:50:26.153
It's more than that, isn't it?

00:50:26.896 --> 00:50:29.677
Something like that, but I don't think we follow it through the fall.

00:50:29.677 --> 00:50:31.175
I mean, playoffs are done.

00:50:31.175 --> 00:50:31.710
That.

00:50:31.710 --> 00:50:34.719
That ends the season Call done.

00:50:35.239 --> 00:50:35.320
OK.

00:50:36.550 --> 00:50:37.755
Unless I'm too far behind.

00:50:39.809 --> 00:50:44.567
Well, right now, let's see, let's see, I am.

00:50:44.567 --> 00:50:46.675
Oh, I didn't switch the names.

00:50:46.675 --> 00:50:50.295
Whoops, I switched the points, but not the name.

00:50:50.376 --> 00:50:50.858
Seven events.

00:50:51.731 --> 00:50:53.034
So there's seven events in the fall.

00:50:53.034 --> 00:51:00.561
Ok, jeremy's got 4,022, joe's 960 points behind him at 3,062.

00:51:00.561 --> 00:51:04.523
And I'm 72 points behind Joe at 2,989.

00:51:04.523 --> 00:51:07.264
That's Ryan Morpick.

00:51:07.264 --> 00:51:09.246
Really hurt any chances.

00:51:09.246 --> 00:51:12.536
I had to have doing well, but oh well, it is what it is.

00:51:12.536 --> 00:51:16.659
So it looks like Joe is up first for this week's pick.

00:51:18.960 --> 00:51:19.929
Oh, four.

00:51:19.929 --> 00:51:29.313
Ok, let's see, I didn't have one ready I'm going to go with.

00:51:29.313 --> 00:51:35.597
I think Tommy's got one in the bag, coming 30 to one.

00:51:40.215 --> 00:51:43.702
Which Tommy, tommy Lee Jones, tommy Tommy.

00:51:43.742 --> 00:51:44.143
Thomas.

00:51:45.672 --> 00:51:45.952
Tom.

00:51:46.012 --> 00:51:46.271
Kim.

00:51:46.373 --> 00:51:49.878
Tom Fleetwood, tom Hogy Tommy.

00:51:49.898 --> 00:51:50.257
Fleetwood.

00:51:50.257 --> 00:51:51.780
There it is 30 to one.

00:51:52.041 --> 00:51:55.827
Jesus Love that 31.

00:51:55.847 --> 00:51:55.947
Tommy.

00:51:55.967 --> 00:51:57.809
Fleetwood 31.

00:51:57.809 --> 00:52:00.637
All right, Jeremy, who you got?

00:52:02.530 --> 00:52:05.878
Patrick Cantley, 18 to one.

00:52:05.878 --> 00:52:08.117
Because I don't want to jinx Gordon Spieth.

00:52:08.117 --> 00:52:12.833
He's my real pick, but I'm picking Cantley 18 to one.

00:52:14.338 --> 00:52:21.599
Yeah, did I just said, joe, all right, I'm going to go with last year's runner up, sepp Straka.

00:52:22.740 --> 00:52:30.384
Wow, sounds like a hidden greens pick from two years ago.

00:52:31.773 --> 00:52:33.800
You know, interesting though last year's event.

00:52:33.949 --> 00:52:34.210
Sepp.

00:52:34.231 --> 00:52:38.938
Straka was second, brian Harmon was T three and Lucas Glover was T three.

00:52:39.679 --> 00:52:40.041
Whoa.

00:52:40.990 --> 00:52:43.336
And those guys have all won in the last four weeks.

00:52:43.958 --> 00:52:44.298
Yeah.

00:52:44.358 --> 00:52:44.599
Yeah.

00:52:45.909 --> 00:52:48.018
Yes, sepp won the John Deere.

00:52:48.018 --> 00:52:52.739
Wow, that'll be interesting.

00:52:52.739 --> 00:52:56.076
All right, so that is that.

00:52:56.076 --> 00:52:59.592
I can close that now, all right.

00:52:59.592 --> 00:53:09.655
Last thing I don't even know we can get into it if you want to.

00:53:09.655 --> 00:53:11.434
A little tanker, a little tanker stuff.

00:53:12.449 --> 00:53:14.757
I got the new BGT shaft for the putter.

00:53:14.757 --> 00:53:16.954
They changed the graphics on it.

00:53:16.954 --> 00:53:23.440
It's small, it's like this big now instead of up to the whole length of the shaft.

00:53:23.440 --> 00:53:25.074
So that was kind of cool.

00:53:25.074 --> 00:53:26.018
Haven't put it in yet.

00:53:26.018 --> 00:53:33.257
I was going to wait for the new Garcin grips to arrive, but doesn't look like they're going to be here in time for this weekend.

00:53:33.257 --> 00:53:37.960
So yeah, I'm probably going to put that in tomorrow.

00:53:38.250 --> 00:53:47.244
But what I did is because I at Coyote I took the Olsen's long neck out just to check it out and see how it went.

00:53:47.244 --> 00:53:51.119
It made me realize how much I'm really enjoying putting with the mallet.

00:53:51.119 --> 00:53:53.375
But the mallet is light.

00:53:53.375 --> 00:53:56.699
It's a C6 on the swingway scale.

00:53:56.699 --> 00:54:10.880
So I added some you know, ricky Fowler, wyndham Clark sheets of lead tape to the bottom of it thankfully it's not as big and got it up to D1.

00:54:10.880 --> 00:54:14.338
And my God does it feel so much better.

00:54:14.338 --> 00:54:37.322
And then went out and Allianti had 28 putts, made some nice one, a couple of nice birdie putts that were 10 plus feet and putted really well, lagged it really well, except on that stupid first par five on the front and my approach short and the pen was way back and it's had like a 60 footer up a double.

00:54:37.322 --> 00:54:38.474
It was just terrible.

00:54:38.474 --> 00:54:40.597
So 28 putts with a three jack.

00:54:40.597 --> 00:54:41.452
I was really happy with that.

00:54:42.730 --> 00:54:53.641
But the other thing that I'm working on and I posted a video on my so-called golf life is I'm trying to finally eliminate my early release.

00:54:53.641 --> 00:54:58.632
You know it's a cast, but not up here, it's down here.

00:54:58.632 --> 00:55:28.114
Instead of holding that angle through and I've been determined to do this, to figure it out, I moved my net to the backyard and gave myself an area to hit in where I can swing freely and not worry about overhead storage or bikes or you know toolboxes in the way, and I spent way too much time last week on it, really jacked up my hands and unfortunately showed how to Allianti.

00:55:28.114 --> 00:55:37.132
But I had a guy that's a local here, that is a former professional, that reached out and said, hey, I want to give you.

00:55:37.132 --> 00:55:39.679
You know, if you're interested I can.

00:55:39.679 --> 00:55:41.891
I see some things that I could help you with and I'm like yeah.

00:55:41.891 --> 00:55:49.380
So I started chatting with them and gave me a couple things to work on and much, much improvement.

00:55:49.380 --> 00:56:07.219
It's still far away from where I want to be but it is so much better than where it was Very excited and a lot of the swing changes that I've had over the last eight months six, eight months that I've kind of not tinkered with my swing because I'm kind of happy where it's at.

00:56:08.989 --> 00:56:29.257
But when you see that my shaft is straight up and down at impact and you know guys we play with, especially playing with tray, you know the compresses the shit out of the ball so much and and Jeremy, you're well, you just compress a ball so much and you guys turn your seven irons into five irons when you hit them.

00:56:29.257 --> 00:56:31.534
And I don't do that.

00:56:31.534 --> 00:56:33.507
My seven iron is a seven iron.

00:56:33.507 --> 00:56:34.393
You know I'm not.

00:56:34.393 --> 00:56:34.532
I.

00:56:34.532 --> 00:56:37.750
I have no dynamic loft or whatever.

00:56:38.980 --> 00:56:41.530
Or an eight iron or an eight iron Some businesses yeah, um.

00:56:42.391 --> 00:56:48.612
So I mean, I'm happy with the numbers, but knowing they could be better is is, you know, and I want to.

00:56:48.612 --> 00:56:54.101
It's not about distance, for me, it's about ability, consistency and ball striking.

00:56:54.101 --> 00:57:01.619
You know, I want to be able to utilize the club the way you're supposed to and, um, not having that compression.

00:57:01.619 --> 00:57:06.353
It's, it's really, and what it is is is my, my setup and I.

00:57:06.353 --> 00:57:10.101
I swayed off the ball really bad and fixed.

00:57:10.101 --> 00:57:18.976
I fixed that We'll see on the golf course, but at home, in what I've worked on, I got a better feel for it and it's so much better.

00:57:18.976 --> 00:57:21.940
So I'm kind of excited about this weekend.

00:57:21.940 --> 00:57:25.920
I'm I'm only going at it at an easy pace this week.

00:57:25.920 --> 00:57:36.699
I'm just taking it step by step, you know I'm I'm doing 20 minute sessions and stopping and instead of grinding for an hour and a half and bludgeoning my hands.

00:57:36.699 --> 00:57:42.322
So hopefully some good things to come this weekend.

00:57:43.273 --> 00:57:44.094
Are you guys on a team?

00:57:44.094 --> 00:57:47.474
Yes, joe and I, we're going to be.

00:57:47.494 --> 00:57:52.713
we're going to be team chippy, dice man If Dan if.

00:57:52.713 --> 00:57:53.496
Dan's listening.

00:57:53.496 --> 00:57:55.842
You got a matching, I got a Raiders.

00:57:56.791 --> 00:57:57.795
We're going to be team Raiders.

00:57:58.952 --> 00:57:59.472
Oh, that's easy.

00:57:59.994 --> 00:58:00.215
Yeah.

00:58:01.898 --> 00:58:02.762
Hey Cyrus.

00:58:03.172 --> 00:58:04.358
Well, we get stroke, so yeah.

00:58:06.853 --> 00:58:07.655
Well and that okay.

00:58:07.655 --> 00:58:13.922
So, Jeremy, you took the, the, the USGA handicapping class.

00:58:13.922 --> 00:58:24.181
It helped me explain this to me, because, uh, double par and Trevor, they, they like to do 75% of your index and they say you know what?

00:58:24.181 --> 00:58:27.378
It helps eliminate the sandbaggers which I totally understand.

00:58:28.289 --> 00:58:30.315
So um, I I want to know.

00:58:30.315 --> 00:58:45.092
So if I looked at me playing the blue teas at Rio and I put Bob playing the black and I put plumber playing the blue right, so Bob's a plus, it takes him to a zero.

00:58:45.092 --> 00:58:47.713
Plumber is a 1.4.

00:58:47.713 --> 00:58:50.876
It takes him to a three for the course index.

00:58:50.876 --> 00:58:54.074
Right At 75% he's still a three.

00:58:54.074 --> 00:58:59.112
I am a six, seven course index I'm a 10,.

00:58:59.112 --> 00:59:01.331
85% I'm a seven.

00:59:01.331 --> 00:59:05.759
So I lose three strokes but plumber doesn't lose any.

00:59:07.251 --> 00:59:09.840
I think he probably calculated that wrong.

00:59:10.349 --> 00:59:11.693
No, I'm doing that in the Gen app.

00:59:12.315 --> 00:59:12.755
Oh really.

00:59:13.277 --> 00:59:14.641
Yeah, you can do it in the gen app.

00:59:15.911 --> 00:59:16.693
So which which?

00:59:17.735 --> 00:59:18.456
which tea.

00:59:18.456 --> 00:59:21.963
So you said plumber for blues, and then your eyes blues as well.

00:59:22.429 --> 00:59:26.318
I put me and plumber on the same tease just for sake of argument.

00:59:26.318 --> 00:59:32.572
So, wouldn't yeah, right, I mean cause.

00:59:33.730 --> 00:59:34.313
What's his course?

00:59:34.313 --> 00:59:37.295
Handicap Three from the blue.

00:59:37.976 --> 00:59:38.137
Yeah.

00:59:38.137 --> 00:59:39.769
And yours is 10.

00:59:39.769 --> 00:59:41.175
Mine's 10.

00:59:41.230 --> 00:59:43.998
And his handicap he gets more shots and you get less.

00:59:45.170 --> 00:59:48.833
He stays a three at 85% it doesn't.

00:59:48.833 --> 00:59:53.315
75%, it doesn't change, and I go down to a seven.

00:59:56.635 --> 00:59:58.110
Yeah, yeah, that's.

00:59:58.110 --> 01:00:01.277
They didn't teach that in the class I attended.

01:00:01.697 --> 01:00:04.063
No, yeah, there you go.

01:00:04.730 --> 01:00:06.481
That's level two, yeah.

01:00:06.989 --> 01:00:08.692
That's an interesting one I'm going to.

01:00:08.692 --> 01:00:09.976
You should send that over to me.

01:00:09.976 --> 01:00:10.818
I'm really curious.

01:00:10.818 --> 01:00:11.753
I might email them.

01:00:12.489 --> 01:00:15.114
Yeah, cause it, I mean.

01:00:15.114 --> 01:00:18.539
So what?

01:00:18.539 --> 01:00:24.699
I an article I found they did 85% and they're saying a plus four would go to a three.

01:00:24.699 --> 01:00:34.414
They go to zero when you play percentages and I don't know, I just I don't know how.

01:00:34.414 --> 01:00:37.922
I'm trying to figure it out in my head how that works.

01:00:37.922 --> 01:00:50.869
I understand I have more strokes, so I should get less strokes because I'm not using as much as my handicap, but for him to not lose any, that's basically saying a one four versus a six?

01:00:51.070 --> 01:00:53.476
Is it based on him playing the back on?

01:00:53.556 --> 01:00:54.036
all of his.

01:00:54.036 --> 01:01:00.759
No, no, that's same tease, but I mean on all of his on his handicap.

01:01:00.838 --> 01:01:01.782
I mean, who knows?

01:01:02.369 --> 01:01:05.940
So his 85% of his handicap would be 2.55.

01:01:05.940 --> 01:01:06.992
Is Trevor?

01:01:07.012 --> 01:01:07.894
just rounding it up.

01:01:07.894 --> 01:01:09.655
Yeah, Trevor rounds up.

01:01:09.655 --> 01:01:10.891
Trevor's rounding it.

01:01:13.489 --> 01:01:14.210
So you.

01:01:14.210 --> 01:01:28.057
So so Plummer being a three would go to 2.55, which he then rounded up to three, and you I remember it's 75, not 85.

01:01:28.057 --> 01:01:29.000
Oh 75?

01:01:29.000 --> 01:01:29.000
.

01:01:29.460 --> 01:01:29.661
Yeah.

01:01:32.753 --> 01:01:34.277
I mean 2.25,.

01:01:34.277 --> 01:01:38.342
I don't know how he's not going to do like that.

01:01:38.362 --> 01:01:39.144
This isn't a Gen app.

01:01:39.144 --> 01:01:40.233
This is what Gen does.

01:01:44.097 --> 01:01:51.436
I mean, I think the most logical thing is, is Trevor's never really handicapped very well on anything that he's ever done?

01:01:52.351 --> 01:01:58.981
Well, I mean for plus handicaps like whenever I've played with them, he always just makes us zero.

01:01:59.463 --> 01:01:59.682
Zero.

01:02:00.369 --> 01:02:00.994
Even if we play in a net game.

01:02:01.034 --> 01:02:04.315
I mean technically we should be you should be getting plus strokes.

01:02:04.469 --> 01:02:05.574
Yeah, even more plus.

01:02:05.574 --> 01:02:07.559
But he's always put us at zero.

01:02:08.150 --> 01:02:09.653
Plus two, you get a extra.

01:02:09.653 --> 01:02:11.599
You get a stroke on 17 and 18.

01:02:11.599 --> 01:02:14.856
You're added a stroke to your score, not deducting.

01:02:15.590 --> 01:02:22.730
So it could be a little combination of some USGA handicapping and some Trevor level special handicapping.

01:02:24.373 --> 01:02:30.356
Yeah, I sent him a message this morning to ask him what we were doing and he said a lot's going on finalizing today.

01:02:30.356 --> 01:02:33.179
And then so I sent a Robin message and I'm like, hey, I don't want to bug Trevor anymore.

01:02:33.179 --> 01:02:34.976
I don't know his schedule, but what are we doing?

01:02:34.976 --> 01:02:37.237
He goes 75%, of course, indexed.

01:02:37.237 --> 01:02:37.759
I said okay.

01:02:37.759 --> 01:02:40.050
I said, look, I'm not complaining, I'm just.

01:02:40.050 --> 01:02:43.275
I don't understand this and I'm wondering if you understand it.

01:02:43.275 --> 01:02:44.318
And-.

01:02:45.590 --> 01:02:47.255
Well, my handicap went up 0.2,.

01:02:47.394 --> 01:02:48.818
so oh shit.

01:02:49.481 --> 01:02:51.753
Yeah, I've posted my scores the past few weeks.

01:02:52.735 --> 01:02:53.137
What.

01:02:53.536 --> 01:02:53.878
No.

01:02:54.259 --> 01:02:55.061
Oh my good.

01:02:55.061 --> 01:02:56.443
Well, I posted your score.

01:02:56.652 --> 01:03:01.003
It's because you played in Washington, right Playing in Washington, but I also posted Mountain Falls, oh wow.

01:03:01.003 --> 01:03:02.889
Look at you.

01:03:05.175 --> 01:03:07.340
He knows there's a major coming up with a lot of points.

01:03:07.340 --> 01:03:09.677
Hey, I sent out emails.

01:03:09.677 --> 01:03:25.157
I'm trying to get everybody to understand this If we get 60 players and this is a weird one Coyote Springs under new management and they want our 60 players, if we have them, to be paid for 30 days out, so that is August 16th.

01:03:25.157 --> 01:03:32.775
So that means I have to have everybody's money by August 15th, which is from six days from when this episode goes out.

01:03:32.775 --> 01:03:43.192
It's Tuesday of next week and if we get 60 players, the VGN, the Vegas Golf Network, is kicking in an extra $1,000 in prize money.

01:03:45.954 --> 01:04:00.005
So we need Per division no, shut up, not per division no, no, no, an extra $1,000 in prize money will be dispersed across the four divisions.

01:04:00.005 --> 01:04:05.333
So that's there, if everybody you know-.

01:04:07.809 --> 01:04:08.592
What are we at right now?

01:04:08.592 --> 01:04:09.516
50.

01:04:09.516 --> 01:04:10.971
So we need 10 more.

01:04:11.833 --> 01:04:14.559
Yeah, and we we have 10.

01:04:14.559 --> 01:04:15.842
You guys saw the email, we saw the email.

01:04:16.969 --> 01:04:18.034
So I mean, is that 50 paid?

01:04:19.471 --> 01:04:22.518
50 committed and half is paid.

01:04:23.179 --> 01:04:26.304
Okay, so yeah, we need 10.

01:04:26.304 --> 01:04:26.806
Just have a week.

01:04:27.469 --> 01:04:34.492
Yeah, we have 10 people from the 25 who haven't responded and the 25 that said they're not playing to step up.

01:04:38.210 --> 01:04:38.690
Coyote Springs.

01:04:38.690 --> 01:04:39.954
It's in prime condition.

01:04:39.954 --> 01:04:40.076
It's.

01:04:40.096 --> 01:04:40.938
Coyote Springs.

01:04:40.938 --> 01:04:41.699
It's a major.

01:04:41.699 --> 01:04:44.496
We'll see.

01:04:44.496 --> 01:04:45.760
We will see.

01:04:45.760 --> 01:04:48.858
If not, I don't know I don't know.

01:04:48.858 --> 01:04:56.963
Like I said, I have to pay them next Wednesday, so it's not like I have time to wrangle up some guest players or anything like that.

01:04:56.963 --> 01:05:01.460
So get on your ass, step up and come join us.

01:05:01.750 --> 01:05:03.175
That's a true test of tournament golf.

01:05:03.175 --> 01:05:07.976
When you're playing that course and you've got some pressure in a tournament, that's the place to be.

01:05:07.976 --> 01:05:08.918
That's where you want to do it.

01:05:09.818 --> 01:05:10.579
Yep, so sign up.

01:05:10.579 --> 01:05:11.681

All right, I'm going to ask if you guys don't have anything.

01:05:17.012 --> 01:05:18.014
I think that's it for me.

01:05:18.414 --> 01:05:19.096
Right on.

01:05:19.096 --> 01:05:19.396
Look at that.

01:05:19.396 --> 01:05:19.898
What are we at?

01:05:19.898 --> 01:05:25.550
A little over an hour, it beats the hour and 50 minutes from last week.

01:05:25.550 --> 01:05:26.474
So All right, joe, bring it home.

01:05:26.474 --> 01:05:27.931

Something like that?

01:05:34.320 --> 01:05:35.663
