00:00:17.635 --> 00:00:18.675
What is up everybody?
00:00:18.675 --> 00:00:22.079
Welcome to another episode of the chasing daylight podcast.
00:00:22.079 --> 00:00:28.472
It's Shriners week, which means the PGA tour is making its annual stop in Las Vegas at a TPC summerland.
00:00:28.472 --> 00:00:30.423
You're talking a little bit about that.
00:00:30.423 --> 00:00:36.405
Hey, raiders just won money night football kind of wild, they actually won a game.
00:00:36.405 --> 00:00:41.941
Still repping the rebels, of course, joe showing up a little true sticker.
00:00:41.941 --> 00:00:42.603
I got the.
00:00:42.603 --> 00:00:43.423
I got him right here.
00:00:44.466 --> 00:00:45.508
Nice.
00:00:46.829 --> 00:00:47.290
How do you like?
00:00:47.310 --> 00:00:48.654
them Fancy.
00:00:48.654 --> 00:00:50.865
Well, I haven't worn them yet, but I put them on and they're nice.
00:00:51.828 --> 00:00:52.389
I wore them today.
00:00:52.389 --> 00:00:53.941
Little pointy toe box.
00:00:54.722 --> 00:00:55.584
They're, they're.
00:00:55.584 --> 00:01:00.332
So I did wear them for the first time because I was sick Friday.
00:01:00.332 --> 00:01:04.228
I put them on at work today, sick of not playing golf.
00:01:04.228 --> 00:01:08.084
It's very sick of not playing golf, very sick to the stomach Friday.
00:01:08.084 --> 00:01:11.759
But I put them on for the first time and actually wore them today.
00:01:11.759 --> 00:01:30.022
I tried them on before but I put them on and I was like man, these feel really narrow and as the day went on I was like, ok, they're, they're working in there, you know, because the original True NIT twos, you know, they felt good at first and then they kind of expanded too far and they felt a little loose.
00:01:30.022 --> 00:01:34.543
So I'm, I'm, I'm thinking the true NITs are going to work out or the threes are going to work out really well.
00:01:35.024 --> 00:01:36.689
Yeah, excited, it's a good.
00:01:36.689 --> 00:01:37.533
I mean the.
00:01:37.533 --> 00:01:42.489
This is a special release so you can see they got the the dead guy stuff on the back.
00:01:43.090 --> 00:01:44.054
They got a game.
00:01:44.054 --> 00:01:45.780
Yeah, the bottom clear.
00:01:47.222 --> 00:01:47.463
Yeah.
00:01:47.823 --> 00:01:48.706
Yeah, oh cool.
00:01:50.710 --> 00:01:54.719
See that and they feel, they feel more stable than the two to there's.
00:01:54.719 --> 00:01:58.799
This is why you need to listen or watch the show on YouTube so you can see stuff like this.
00:01:58.799 --> 00:01:59.561
You know that we're showing.
00:01:59.561 --> 00:02:02.995
This is the insole, yeah, but it's a.
00:02:02.995 --> 00:02:03.355
It's a.
00:02:03.355 --> 00:02:04.078
It's a, really.
00:02:04.078 --> 00:02:09.352
I mean probably one of their most technically advanced NITs.
00:02:10.354 --> 00:02:12.539
Yeah it's it's a, it's a come a long way.
00:02:13.542 --> 00:02:17.550
Very well designed shoe, so I'm looking forward to those.
00:02:17.991 --> 00:02:23.308
I'm excited to break them in and see you how they like, adapt and I think, I think they're going to be really good.
00:02:23.329 --> 00:02:33.719
Hey, speaking of shoes, how about that vendor over in Europe Not selling to resellers that you have to hit a 200?
00:02:34.020 --> 00:02:34.481
drive.
00:02:34.481 --> 00:02:36.007
I love it Awesome.
00:02:36.007 --> 00:02:36.969
I think it's amazing.
00:02:37.853 --> 00:02:41.324
How many more people need that to take place, you know?
00:02:41.344 --> 00:02:41.866
What did they do?
00:02:41.866 --> 00:02:45.080
Do they have like a similar simulator set up in the shop, or like?
00:02:45.080 --> 00:02:46.344
Who knows I would.
00:02:46.344 --> 00:02:47.068
I would hope so.
00:02:47.068 --> 00:02:48.173
I mean, how do you prove it?
00:02:48.173 --> 00:02:48.956
We?
00:02:48.977 --> 00:02:49.680
need some video of that.
00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:54.012
We're our shops right outside the old course, let's go out number one in a snack.
00:02:55.115 --> 00:02:58.082
Yeah, why this fairway in the game?
00:02:58.805 --> 00:02:59.387
Oh man.
00:02:59.387 --> 00:03:01.652
So I think that's great it's.
00:03:01.652 --> 00:03:11.300
It's amazing how many you know resellers are out there and you know we have some friends that do it, and so I understand it.
00:03:11.300 --> 00:03:15.572
But you know, preventing people that want it from getting it is kind of crappy.
00:03:15.572 --> 00:03:19.748
Rodin's in the chat.
00:03:19.748 --> 00:03:20.591
What's up, dave?
00:03:20.591 --> 00:03:21.412
How you doing man.
00:03:23.877 --> 00:03:29.091
Yeah, they should make them in a road or where if you, if you hit it in the fairway, you get a discount.
00:03:29.091 --> 00:03:32.400
A little tempest center.
00:03:32.782 --> 00:03:33.223
They had that.
00:03:33.223 --> 00:03:34.729
They had that at one of the holes today.
00:03:34.729 --> 00:03:37.962
They had on the ninth hole on the Coyote Run course.
00:03:37.962 --> 00:03:44.012
If you hit the fairway you got some extra raffle tickets, which was, you know, it's always closest to the pan.
00:03:44.012 --> 00:03:46.044
If you hit the green and get your money back, approach shop credit that's.
00:03:46.063 --> 00:04:00.391
You know, everybody's used to seeing that, but it was nice to see something a little different, because that can be that can be a tricky fairway if you try to get it over the creek Yep and the creek you know, we got a couple rounds in this weekend.
00:04:00.391 --> 00:04:06.012
Jeremy, Joe, myself and Favs played at a Prim Valley.
00:04:06.754 --> 00:04:10.405
And then this weekend you said Joe, oh, what did I say?
00:04:10.826 --> 00:04:20.000
I haven't played since the kingdom and I meant I meant Dan, jeremy Favs and myself played Prim Valley and then Dan and I today played Boulder Creek.
00:04:21.182 --> 00:04:21.764
Like rocks.
00:04:23.807 --> 00:04:26.413
Boulder Creek is in fantastic shape.
00:04:26.413 --> 00:04:30.444
Those greens were flawless today, absolutely flawless.
00:04:30.444 --> 00:04:36.319
So much fun putting on them compared to what we put it on at Prim Valley.
00:04:36.319 --> 00:04:41.870
Yeah, I mean you guys played Prim this weekend.
00:04:41.870 --> 00:04:43.673
Yeah, we played Prim on Sunday.
00:04:44.281 --> 00:04:45.745
On Sunday you played the lakes.
00:04:45.745 --> 00:04:48.310
Yeah we played the lakes course, and so how's it looking?
00:04:49.312 --> 00:04:51.745
We need a report on this yeah, we're going to give it to you.
00:04:51.745 --> 00:04:54.880
I'll let you guys go and I'll shut up for a minute.
00:04:54.880 --> 00:04:57.869
Go ahead, jay, okay Of course you guys have talked.
00:04:58.009 --> 00:05:06.713
So I would say it's not quite night and day different, but it's very, very green, very lush.
00:05:06.713 --> 00:05:15.382
The greens are actually like really green, but there's some patches where a lot of the greens they re-sotted, which those spots are really nice.
00:05:16.266 --> 00:05:16.507
Really nice.
00:05:16.526 --> 00:05:19.418
But then there's some patches where you can tell they had a.
00:05:19.418 --> 00:05:23.473
It was really rough, like what hole is that number four, the one that was like basically?
00:05:23.494 --> 00:05:25.843
sand, that one's way better.
00:05:25.862 --> 00:05:26.586
They're just bumpy.
00:05:26.586 --> 00:05:31.404
I mean it needs time, they need to grow them out, cut them, roll them.
00:05:31.404 --> 00:05:33.012
Grow them out, cut them, roll them.
00:05:33.012 --> 00:05:35.903
Just get them nice and thick, because so are they shaggy.
00:05:36.062 --> 00:05:36.644
A little shaggy.
00:05:37.084 --> 00:05:37.646
Some spots.
00:05:38.247 --> 00:05:38.869
Not super.
00:05:38.869 --> 00:05:39.850
Yeah, some spots.
00:05:40.391 --> 00:05:43.125
I'd say more bumpy than shaggy, okay yeah.
00:05:43.627 --> 00:05:44.810
But overall it's getting close.
00:05:44.810 --> 00:05:46.235
It's getting close yeah.
00:05:46.716 --> 00:05:49.862
I had a downhill putt bounce backwards.
00:05:50.684 --> 00:05:55.471
Yeah, that was weird, it was springtime.
00:05:55.512 --> 00:05:58.903
I think it's going to be close to there, yeah.
00:05:59.184 --> 00:06:01.267
So it's much better though, oh yeah.
00:06:01.288 --> 00:06:02.110
Much better.
00:06:02.110 --> 00:06:05.887
It's night and day compared to what we played back in July.
00:06:05.927 --> 00:06:06.468
I like to hear it.
00:06:06.750 --> 00:06:09.257
Yeah, so it's definitely on its way back.
00:06:09.257 --> 00:06:10.021
Dan, what did you say?
00:06:10.060 --> 00:06:11.829
Yeah, it's definitely on its way back.
00:06:11.829 --> 00:06:18.959
A few of the greens out there, like Matt had said, had been replaced with hall new sod and it kind of seems like it's a different like strain.
00:06:20.242 --> 00:06:22.206
Because there was times where you would.
00:06:22.408 --> 00:06:31.764
You know half your putt would be on the new stuff and roll a nice and then all of a sudden you'd hit the bumpy or shaggy or stuff and it was like you're putting on the rocks yeah.
00:06:31.803 --> 00:06:32.365
It was weird.
00:06:32.384 --> 00:06:38.867
Yeah, but so it just needs to mature a bit I mean it's obviously better than putting through dirt.
00:06:39.067 --> 00:06:43.105
I mean, if money wasn't an issue, I'm redoing those greens, all of them.
00:06:43.105 --> 00:06:47.452
Like there's little dips in low spots and stuff.
00:06:47.452 --> 00:06:52.416
I think if you smooth those out you'd still keep a lot of the contours of the green.
00:06:52.416 --> 00:06:56.110
But you could smooth them out in certain spots and just re-sod everything.
00:06:56.110 --> 00:06:57.555
I would start over again.
00:06:57.555 --> 00:07:02.168
But as far as comparison, the last time we played it's way better.
00:07:02.168 --> 00:07:03.130
They're doing a lot of good.
00:07:06.043 --> 00:07:06.824
Yeah, it was weird.
00:07:06.824 --> 00:07:08.086
We set it on quite a few holes.
00:07:08.086 --> 00:07:16.166
The amount of new sod it's like there's like 15, 20 percent.
00:07:16.166 --> 00:07:17.028
That's not new.
00:07:17.028 --> 00:07:18.391
Why just finish it?
00:07:18.391 --> 00:07:24.456
Just finish it, but I don't know if they were just doing that to keep play going or what.
00:07:24.456 --> 00:07:33.387
But yeah, that new stuff is really nice, really nice, and I hope what the old stuff is, that grass, just a much healthier version of it.
00:07:34.209 --> 00:07:35.814
Yeah, I mean it's such an underrated place.
00:07:35.814 --> 00:07:37.560
It's such a gem Like.
00:07:37.560 --> 00:07:41.612
If they just they lit it up, man, it'd be the perfect place to play.
00:07:41.612 --> 00:07:46.146
The perfect Las Vegas getaway for 36, not too far away.
00:07:46.547 --> 00:07:49.113
The practice area behind the range was open.
00:07:49.113 --> 00:07:51.100
It was fantastic.
00:07:51.100 --> 00:07:55.891
Yeah, the putting greens were a little slow, but they weren't dirt.
00:07:56.860 --> 00:07:59.428
Those catch OJ on a on any given day.
00:07:59.428 --> 00:08:06.709
You might just run into no bartender at the bar for 20 minutes it's great Also the fire alarm.
00:08:06.970 --> 00:08:07.913
they changed the battery.
00:08:08.615 --> 00:08:11.281
Yes, in the fire alarm, so that's fixed.
00:08:11.463 --> 00:08:16.341
Still need to pay attention to the bunkers, though the bunkers still have some roots and hard pan in them.
00:08:18.086 --> 00:08:19.149
Yeah, and it's.
00:08:19.149 --> 00:08:20.211
It's crazy.
00:08:20.211 --> 00:08:22.557
The course was super wet.
00:08:22.557 --> 00:08:24.781
I mean, it was wet we.
00:08:24.781 --> 00:08:39.625
I took a picture of one of my balls in the fairway and it's I mean it plugged a good two, three inches and then Dan created a glory hole with one of his shots, that thing was like six inches down under the top of the earth.
00:08:39.625 --> 00:08:41.188
How you found that.
00:08:41.389 --> 00:08:42.630
I have just enough.
00:08:42.672 --> 00:08:45.725
Just enough for the fair enough to get the tip in there.
00:08:48.270 --> 00:08:57.520
Yeah that's my ball, but there's so much water on the course and we don't know if that's what they're trying to do to get it back because it's super green.
00:08:57.520 --> 00:09:05.245
I mean it is super green but there's so much water and on the car pass to where the water has been there so long.
00:09:05.245 --> 00:09:17.566
The there's new tracks on the course where the carts are going around it and it's like just get that shit on the course, get it off the car pass and get it on the course, but very, very wet.
00:09:17.566 --> 00:09:21.741
It was like playing at sea level because your ball had no roll out whatsoever.
00:09:24.166 --> 00:09:24.486
That's good.
00:09:24.486 --> 00:09:28.293
I mean it's good to hear, Good to hear positive reports.
00:09:28.293 --> 00:09:31.048
I mean it's coming along, which you know.
00:09:31.048 --> 00:09:33.096
That's that's the best we can hope for currently.
00:09:33.096 --> 00:09:44.144
And I'd, like Jeremy said, I think it's springtime, it might be a, it might be a go getter Might be a tenor yeah, all the of all the bad shit that's been happening in Vegas, with courses closing and raids going through the roof.
00:09:45.048 --> 00:09:47.115
Reflection Bay is back open with new greens.
00:09:47.115 --> 00:09:48.500
Good report from them.
00:09:48.500 --> 00:10:00.692
When we played and talked to Kyle Peters about it the other day or, yeah, kyle Peters, not Peter and he said they're getting better each week, so that's nice.
00:10:00.692 --> 00:10:04.740
And then you know Prim Valley coming back.
00:10:04.740 --> 00:10:10.371
So things are, things are looking up in the golfing world around here.
00:10:10.371 --> 00:10:12.822
Like to hear it.
00:10:12.863 --> 00:10:21.639
But Boulder Creek, dude, if you got a chance, get out there, because, oh my, it is in fantastic shape.
00:10:21.639 --> 00:10:22.942
It's very affordable.
00:10:22.942 --> 00:10:26.729
Boulder City is not as far as people think it is.
00:10:26.729 --> 00:10:30.413
Go check it out.
00:10:30.413 --> 00:10:34.307
It's in great shape and they've they've cut away a ton of stuff.
00:10:34.307 --> 00:10:38.024
We're, we're on the putting green and I'm like I've never seen the pond before.
00:10:38.024 --> 00:10:41.792
I know that pond is there, but I've never seen it.
00:10:41.792 --> 00:11:03.203
You know from standing here on the putting green and so he looked and they cut a lot away of the reeds and then on one on Desert Hawk, you can see the whole golf course, which is maybe it's like a rodents twin brother from another dimension or something, because he was doing that a wild horse, I mean.
00:11:03.806 --> 00:11:06.715
That's, that's a big step to like really clean shit up like that.
00:11:06.715 --> 00:11:08.100
That's a lot of work.
00:11:08.100 --> 00:11:15.261
Oh, and to have an eye to see where it needs to be done on such a big golf course like that's massive.
00:11:15.261 --> 00:11:16.504
That's, that's awesome.
00:11:17.929 --> 00:11:29.610
Yeah, it was nice to see and it really makes that opening whole, like it's a lot more enticing, you know, because you can actually see right where your ball can land, I mean your landing spot.
00:11:29.726 --> 00:11:35.789
Dan took it over the palm trees left of the lake and I mean we had a 50 yard chip shot.
00:11:35.789 --> 00:11:37.332
He just blasted that.
00:11:37.332 --> 00:11:41.360
Oh, but it was fun time out there today.
00:11:41.360 --> 00:11:45.614
Good courses in good shape, it's good crew had some fun.
00:11:45.614 --> 00:11:48.404
So if you guys get a chance, get out to Boulder Creek.
00:11:48.404 --> 00:11:55.282
And man, you guys are just so talkative tonight.
00:11:55.282 --> 00:11:57.299
Well, I didn't play any golf.
00:11:57.595 --> 00:11:58.700
I'm the one that's been up for the more.
00:11:59.778 --> 00:12:00.809
Well, talk about something.
00:12:00.809 --> 00:12:01.215
Goddamn it.
00:12:01.876 --> 00:12:03.864
Joe, I've been up since four in the morning too.
00:12:03.864 --> 00:12:06.881
I had the kids all weekend, so I don't know what you.
00:12:06.881 --> 00:12:08.179
I didn't watch much golf.
00:12:08.179 --> 00:12:14.504
I, you know I haven't done much golf and I'm kind of sad and depressed.
00:12:14.504 --> 00:12:16.318
I need to feed my soul.
00:12:18.679 --> 00:12:19.302
Yeah, we channeled.
00:12:19.302 --> 00:12:20.938
We channeled you on a chip shot today.
00:12:22.042 --> 00:12:23.485
Yeah, yeah, how'd that go?
00:12:23.485 --> 00:12:24.118
It went in right.
00:12:24.118 --> 00:12:27.083
No, it came up short, but it was better than the first one.
00:12:27.083 --> 00:12:28.118
Better than the first one.
00:12:29.455 --> 00:12:32.744
I did play some global tonight in the backyard with the O, so that was.
00:12:32.823 --> 00:12:34.226
Oh, he was, he was holding.
00:12:34.294 --> 00:12:36.020
He was holding some putts with some six irons.
00:12:36.020 --> 00:12:39.302
Nice Watching tray.
00:12:39.302 --> 00:12:40.197
Yeah, it was pretty good.
00:12:40.961 --> 00:12:53.299
Yeah, it was funny that the first hole on print Valley lakes course was car path only and there was a shotgun of some ladies in front of us, which who, who.
00:12:53.299 --> 00:13:15.323
That was bad, um, and so our my shot and Jeremy shot and Faf shot was all kind of on top of the bunkers where you cut the corner, and so we parked the car and then go down there and and I couldn't get it out of the rough because it was really thick, and so I walked up and I have that was a decent, that's a decent walk.
00:13:16.248 --> 00:13:18.241
Yes, mike, it was a glovy one for sure.
00:13:18.241 --> 00:13:19.441
Shout out, mike.
00:13:20.236 --> 00:13:23.667
And uh so I had my six iron.
00:13:23.667 --> 00:13:28.774
So I'm like I've got a, you know a 70 yard pitch shot with my six iron.
00:13:28.774 --> 00:13:31.703
So I choked down, opened it up and pitched it up there.
00:13:31.703 --> 00:13:32.385
Really, nicely.
00:13:32.475 --> 00:13:33.539
I was pretty happy with that shot.
00:13:36.475 --> 00:13:43.969
But then all day today, dan, dan and I were having uh, let's see if I can get it inside of Matt every shot.
00:13:43.969 --> 00:13:46.119
Every shot I hit today, that was a good shot.
00:13:46.119 --> 00:13:51.884
Dan trumped it with a better one and it wasn't like I was on the green 40 feet away.
00:13:51.884 --> 00:13:58.980
I was, like you know, eight feet and he hits it to six was 40 hits it to two and he hit the flag again.
00:13:58.980 --> 00:14:01.879
He hit the flag, uh, prim too, oh yeah.
00:14:02.260 --> 00:14:03.163
Oh, yeah, another one.
00:14:03.303 --> 00:14:06.975
Yeah, no shine huh, yeah, so it was fun.
00:14:06.975 --> 00:14:08.278
Hey, we, we won.
00:14:09.482 --> 00:14:09.985
Yeah, it's good.
00:14:10.014 --> 00:14:11.120
The street continues.
00:14:11.120 --> 00:14:12.801
Hey, you've got to play golf today.
00:14:12.801 --> 00:14:16.663
And yesterday or yesterday you got to play golf.
00:14:16.663 --> 00:14:21.535
I was going to go play golf on Friday and then I got hit with the stomach bug Like my.
00:14:21.535 --> 00:14:24.404
My clubs were by the door so I didn't forget them.

I was like told Fernando, my coworker homie, I was like don't forget your clubs tomorrow because we're going to sneak out of the office and we're going to play golf.
00:14:33.501 --> 00:14:40.764

00:14:40.985 --> 00:14:41.044

00:14:42.552 --> 00:14:44.493
I didn't know, I didn't want to be blaming on that.
00:14:44.493 --> 00:14:46.432
I do have a bean and cheese burrito on ice, though.
00:14:48.158 --> 00:14:49.280
I wouldn't expect anything less.
