00:00:08.753 --> 00:00:10.234
Oh wait, you know what Screw that?
00:00:10.234 --> 00:00:19.480
I got something way better.
00:00:19.480 --> 00:00:26.121
Just a little bit Thanks to Jeremy for this.
00:00:32.600 --> 00:00:33.463
Let's go boys.
00:00:34.966 --> 00:00:36.070
What is up everybody?
00:00:36.070 --> 00:00:39.606
Welcome to another episode of the Chasing Daylight podcast.
00:00:39.606 --> 00:00:42.453
Hell of a weekend.
00:00:42.453 --> 00:00:45.389
Hell of a weekend Nights won the cup.
00:00:45.389 --> 00:00:52.587
They had four days of drunkenness parades, craziness Joe was our live reporter from the chaos.
00:00:52.587 --> 00:01:02.232
And, before anything, congrats to the Golden Knights, your 2022-23 Stanley Cup champions.
00:01:03.579 --> 00:01:08.643
And the parade MVP William Carlson, while Bill, he's a legend.
00:01:09.519 --> 00:01:13.932
He has elevated his status so highly just by being drunk.
00:01:13.932 --> 00:01:18.031
He almost didn't even make it to that because he tripped on the way onto the stage.
00:01:18.031 --> 00:01:29.371
I said to him I go oh he's hammered, just let's let him get up there and just ramble.
00:01:29.371 --> 00:01:30.313
It was awesome.
00:01:30.313 --> 00:01:32.665
So pissed the PR girl cut him off.
00:01:32.766 --> 00:01:33.188
It's weird.
00:01:33.188 --> 00:01:43.632
A few stores and I can't even remember where I went, but I've heard like four conversations, just standing in line or wherever, about Carlson being so shitfaced at the parade.
00:01:43.632 --> 00:01:47.388
In grain in someone's people's memories here.
00:01:49.911 --> 00:01:50.879
Yeah, it was awesome.
00:01:50.879 --> 00:01:53.105
I thought I said one of the funny moments.
00:01:53.105 --> 00:02:15.230
I don't know how much you could tell down there ground level, joe, but when George McPhee was up there talking about the action the commitment to the team and the, the for you sports and the role models, and 30 feet to his right bunch of shirtless hockey players pouring champagne and beers for everybody.
00:02:16.112 --> 00:02:19.207
Yeah, i mean those, those the boys enjoyed the moment.
00:02:19.207 --> 00:02:27.632
I have I know nothing against them for doing that And I think, it being Vegas, like totally they they handled it perfectly.
00:02:27.632 --> 00:02:34.602
There were no terrible situations, there were no issues down down there, shot out Metro, i mean, like it was.
00:02:34.602 --> 00:02:41.828
It was a fantastic parade, a fantastic celebration And I think Carlson wrapped it up perfectly.
00:02:41.828 --> 00:02:47.192
Like the dude doesn't talk much during they none of them ever talk much during their.
00:02:47.192 --> 00:02:51.787
You know, it's usually like we got to get, we got to get on the boards, we got to forecheck better, blah, blah, blah.
00:02:51.787 --> 00:02:53.186
Like it was, it was perfect.
00:02:53.186 --> 00:02:54.525
It's what everybody wanted.
00:02:54.525 --> 00:02:57.484
All the fans wanted that And they delivered it.
00:02:57.484 --> 00:02:59.286
And it was, it was perfect.
00:02:59.740 --> 00:03:01.245
Like you want to talk shit, go win a cup.
00:03:01.605 --> 00:03:05.122
Yeah, that'll, that'll live in infamy, like I love George McPhee.
00:03:05.122 --> 00:03:08.590
But let the boys do what they do, because they're the ones who want it.
00:03:08.590 --> 00:03:13.210
Yeah, you piece it together, but those boys want it and they pour their heart into it.
00:03:13.210 --> 00:03:16.109
So let them have fun and we all enjoyed it.
00:03:16.109 --> 00:03:19.307
Nobody everybody wanted more of it, like so.
00:03:20.582 --> 00:03:23.956
I mean, i wanted to hear from Patrangelo and I wanted to hear from you.
00:03:23.956 --> 00:03:25.080
Know, i don't know did.
00:03:25.080 --> 00:03:26.867
Did Aiden Hill get to say anything?
00:03:26.867 --> 00:03:30.985
I can't remember The the but shout out Aiden.
00:03:31.006 --> 00:03:32.250
Hill rocking the Larry Johnson.
00:03:32.250 --> 00:03:34.104
Oh, the adage is, he was epic.
00:03:34.104 --> 00:03:35.348
Yeah, it was.
00:03:35.568 --> 00:03:36.128
Fantastic.
00:03:36.128 --> 00:03:41.764
The coverage was kind of crappy The when the aces had their parade.
00:03:41.764 --> 00:04:01.606
Several of the ladies were fluent in curse language and they weren't bleeping any of it, so I'm sure everybody got a a talking to about that and cause they had like a 15, 20 second delay, it just went quiet and then he's talking.
00:04:01.606 --> 00:04:03.768
So I never I didn't hear his speech until I started.
00:04:03.768 --> 00:04:10.471
I saw it later on Instagram, but shout out at VGK moms on Instagram.
00:04:10.699 --> 00:04:23.833
I know it's a weird name, but, like at VGK moms, they post a lot of VGK stuff that's in the uncensored versions on there, so I highly recommend going listen to it, watching it, yeah, hope.
00:04:23.833 --> 00:04:27.187
I would love to just play golf with some of those guys at some point.
00:04:27.269 --> 00:04:30.427
All right, I'm about to be jumping in some DMs.
00:04:33.786 --> 00:04:35.110
Cause I think it'd be incredible.
00:04:35.880 --> 00:04:37.004
Hey, so something new.

Smash all the just smash them, all, just smash them.
00:05:43.839 --> 00:05:50.202
So before we get into the US open talk, i do want to thank Bob and Trey and Cyrus for hopping on.
00:05:50.202 --> 00:06:07.870
We put out two episodes last week because it was kind of a messed up week for us with my little trip to Palm Springs, but I replayed the we sorry, we replayed the Harry Hall interview from right after his Shriners tournament where he finished at a top 10.
00:06:07.870 --> 00:06:13.490
So his name is kind of popular now because he's been playing really well and we're always talking about him.
00:06:13.490 --> 00:06:16.447
So I wanted to put that out there for everybody to listen to.
00:06:16.447 --> 00:06:18.365
So if you listen to that, thank you very much.
00:06:18.365 --> 00:06:30.149
And then the round table talk that we had about the PGA and the PIF and live and all that before the US open talk was really good And we got some good feedback from some people.
00:06:30.149 --> 00:06:37.165
And a lot of people think we went a little too easy on the PGA And I was kind of surprised at that.
00:06:37.165 --> 00:06:39.988
I didn't think we were like light on them.
00:06:41.543 --> 00:06:49.166
You know, i just anyways, anyway, people are entitled their opinion and that's why we talk about stuff like that, but I definitely want to thank those guys for PGA.
00:06:49.166 --> 00:06:55.992
They're going to get my FBGA shirt next We made some up.
00:06:56.319 --> 00:06:57.103
We made something up there.
00:06:58.632 --> 00:06:59.235
Yeah, yeah.
00:06:59.235 --> 00:07:03.790
So yeah again, thanks to the guys for coming on and we look forward to having them back.
00:07:03.790 --> 00:07:17.146
You know, cyrus, i put a thing out today, just a little while ago, saying Hey, we're recording tonight, got any questions for us about Black Desert or the US open, and Cyrus Chymdan, adam and Chris Torres.
00:07:17.146 --> 00:07:18.524
So we'll get to those in a few.
00:07:18.524 --> 00:07:34.985
But first I want to talk about Black Desert because the three of us and Dan Bogey free 62 traveled up to St George Saturday morning to check out this new place right here And I want to let.
00:07:34.985 --> 00:07:37.711
I'm long winded, i'll talk forever.
00:07:37.711 --> 00:07:44.526
So I'm going to start with the quietest guy, jeremy, who, who everybody says, needs to talk more because I think you're such a valuable asset to the show.
00:07:44.526 --> 00:07:50.350
So let's start with what's your, what's your thoughts on Black Desert Resort.
00:07:51.480 --> 00:07:51.600
It's.
00:07:51.600 --> 00:07:51.862
It's.
00:07:51.862 --> 00:07:52.365
It's funny.
00:07:52.365 --> 00:07:55.329
It's just kind of odd because nothing else is finished around it.
00:07:55.329 --> 00:07:57.124
But there's this amazing golf course.
00:07:57.124 --> 00:07:58.447
It's incredible.
00:07:58.447 --> 00:07:59.170
I enjoyed it.
00:07:59.170 --> 00:08:06.401
It's probably my favorite course in Utah that I've played that's publicly accessible at the moment.
00:08:06.401 --> 00:08:09.305
I love the course.
00:08:09.439 --> 00:08:11.127
I thought the holes were all incredible.
00:08:11.127 --> 00:08:18.391
There wasn't really any holes that I feel were boring, and maybe it's because it was the first time we played, but it was awesome.
00:08:18.391 --> 00:08:19.343
I love the.
00:08:19.343 --> 00:08:23.728
The Black Rock around the course, the views, the views were really distracting.
00:08:23.728 --> 00:08:27.031
Like every hole you turn a different direction as you.
00:08:27.031 --> 00:08:33.328
Just in off from the red rock and the hills and man, i heard that.
00:08:33.328 --> 00:08:46.288
I know that they posted that they're never going to go private, but I'm sort of afraid in the back of my mind it's going to be like in Trada, where it was public for a bit and then they went private and then they went resort, so and fees may go up.
00:08:46.288 --> 00:08:51.870
So it may have been the cheapest time we'll ever play there, but I would highly recommend it.
00:08:51.870 --> 00:08:52.652
It was incredible.
00:08:52.652 --> 00:08:54.586
I loved every minute of it.
00:08:57.926 --> 00:08:59.149
Joe, what, what do you got?
00:09:00.802 --> 00:09:02.128
Yeah, I think I think it was great.
00:09:02.128 --> 00:09:03.321
I think it was.
00:09:03.321 --> 00:09:12.030
it still felt a little unfinished to me, obviously, because some of the car pass are not done And some buildings are built.
00:09:13.196 --> 00:09:14.220
The routing was good.
00:09:14.220 --> 00:09:25.366
But I think I mean dealing with that Black Rock out there, like obviously you can only do so much because it's it's probably hard to route a golf course out there and build the golf course on what they built the golf course on.
00:09:25.366 --> 00:09:31.152
But I feel like they could have done a little bit better on the routing potentially.
00:09:31.152 --> 00:09:43.844
I don't you know, who knows, who knows if they could have done better, but I think 18 would have been great, finishing into snow canyon and whether they call it Padre Canyon or whatever.
00:09:43.844 --> 00:09:45.924
But it was, it was fantastic.
00:09:45.924 --> 00:09:51.802
I thought it was worthy of a second play, 100 percent like it's a course that you should play two times.
00:09:51.802 --> 00:09:52.465
Totally.
00:09:52.465 --> 00:09:55.504
The service was outstanding.
00:09:55.504 --> 00:09:57.663
Definitely want to get back out there.
00:09:57.663 --> 00:09:58.803
The amenities are great.
00:09:59.399 --> 00:10:05.352
The putting course, the two, the 36 hole putting course was fantastic, ridiculous.
00:10:05.352 --> 00:10:17.480
I mean it doesn't beat Punch Bowl in my opinion, but it's it's the closest thing that will have to it, within 100 miles or 200 miles of Vegas, that's for sure.
00:10:17.480 --> 00:10:26.307
But the Greens were amazing, hard to read, but they were true, fast and rolled amazingly A lot of blind tee shots.
00:10:26.307 --> 00:10:27.501
I mentioned that.
00:10:27.501 --> 00:10:39.904
It reminded me of a desert Maclemore, without trees, i guess, and that could just be some of the rocks and the fairways or some of the blind tee shots that you face out of Maclemore.
00:10:39.904 --> 00:10:50.171
But I think it's totally worthy of a trip out there 100 percent, if not two or three, i think, like I said, worthy of two plays, 100 percent.
00:10:50.171 --> 00:10:54.048
And I can't wait to see the finished product when the resort's built.
00:10:54.048 --> 00:11:02.149
And obviously that's probably going to bump up the price a bit, but it's if, if you have the same play package.
00:11:02.168 --> 00:11:03.211
I think it's going to be worth it.
00:11:03.851 --> 00:11:11.691
Yeah, and I think if you have the opportunity to go do it, like go do it now and then go do it when it's finished, complete, like just get out there.
00:11:11.691 --> 00:11:24.981
Black Black Desert is is sick, like the amenities are fantastic And I I would agree it could potentially be the greatest golf course in southern Utah, but I play.
00:11:26.000 --> 00:11:40.447
I'm going to go right out and say, yeah, it is, because if you look at, i mean, san Joulo has the crazy amazing views on the back nine and they've got the little pitch and putt course and they got the nine hole links course, which really makes that a great place.
00:11:40.447 --> 00:11:41.722
You could spend all day there.
00:11:41.722 --> 00:11:53.207
But the rest of the golf there is is not that spectacular, It's not that great, and there are some basic holes at Black Desert.
00:11:53.207 --> 00:11:54.743
It's not, you know, it's not.
00:11:54.743 --> 00:11:58.643
You know video game golf, every hole It's not spectacular.
00:11:59.559 --> 00:12:10.942
One thing that kind of surprised me is when you, when you're not looking north towards a snow canyon and you're looking more towards back towards St George, you feel like you're at a Muni golf course.
00:12:10.942 --> 00:12:16.405
Yeah, because you don't have the dramatic views, you don't have the dramatic rocks.
00:12:16.405 --> 00:12:34.087
It's a dirt lot next to a side road going to a neighborhood And I thought some you know fabricated hillside with trees to kind of seclude you from that would kind of enhance the overall experience of being on that.
00:12:34.087 --> 00:12:38.164
You know pretty exclusive property, but you never know that.
00:12:38.426 --> 00:12:43.268
That may, they may do that down the road, but when we were on, like the, worst thing I could think of, though.
00:12:43.268 --> 00:12:44.921
Yeah, like number five.
00:12:44.921 --> 00:12:45.543
I think that was that.
00:12:45.543 --> 00:12:47.308
Five was the short par for, i think.
00:12:47.308 --> 00:12:49.304
And you see the telephone poles and there's cars.
00:12:49.446 --> 00:12:56.927
Yeah, there's cars And it looked like oh, this is Decatur and Charleston No more like, more like Craig and yeah, yeah.
00:12:59.341 --> 00:13:03.688
We're like there might be a ranch house around the corner but and we don't know.
00:13:03.688 --> 00:13:06.533
I mean, it's brand new, it's been open a month Three months.
00:13:06.880 --> 00:13:10.546
They open the back in November So we're like trial play or whatever.
00:13:12.503 --> 00:13:21.379
But yeah, yeah, they did do a nine hole, i think, but I think they, i think the nine hole preview was like one four seven.
00:13:21.379 --> 00:13:25.504
I think I'm not 100% on that, but that could be.
00:13:25.504 --> 00:13:33.600
that could be why the, you know, there's dirt paths and like cross here and you know, i'm really excited to see what it's going to become because they're they're building.
00:13:33.600 --> 00:13:36.408
It looks like a turn shack, like a snack bar, the Oasis.
00:13:36.408 --> 00:13:39.203
The Oasis, you know, after, i think it was after 11.
00:13:39.203 --> 00:13:39.666
11.
00:13:39.666 --> 00:13:45.370
I think it's called the Oasis, i mean, and there's, it looks like they might be building a short course, Who knows?
00:13:45.370 --> 00:13:46.461
And it's going to be.
00:13:46.461 --> 00:13:49.783
they're putting a lot of money into that place, so it's going to be.
00:13:49.783 --> 00:13:53.363
It's going to be exciting to see what it becomes And you know it's.
00:13:53.363 --> 00:13:56.831
It's fantastic already and it's probably going to be more fantastical soon.
00:13:57.419 --> 00:14:02.509
So I had somebody on Instagram ask me Miller 1643, is it worth 250.
00:14:02.509 --> 00:14:07.977
And so subjective I thought about it for a second, so this was my response.
00:14:07.977 --> 00:14:09.436
I said you know it's hard to answer.
00:14:09.436 --> 00:14:17.937
It's a damn good golf course, crazy good scenery, the practice area is legit, it's arguably the best course in St George and the customer service is over the top.
00:14:17.937 --> 00:14:20.133
So is is.
00:14:20.133 --> 00:14:22.941
Is that worth 250 bucks to you?
00:14:23.070 --> 00:14:25.678
Because I think very subjective.
00:14:26.230 --> 00:14:27.293
So here's the thing.
00:14:27.293 --> 00:14:33.769
I enjoyed 50 right now, like I, don't know, if this may change in the future, but we got, and the practice facility is incredible.
00:14:33.769 --> 00:14:38.475
You could get there a few hours before your tea time and practice every part of your game.
00:14:38.475 --> 00:14:41.278
The other one is we got food included.
00:14:41.278 --> 00:14:45.100
We got a taco truck, which may have been, you know, 20 bucks worth of food or something.
00:14:45.100 --> 00:14:49.251
They gave us some, yeah, and it was unlimited, but really.
00:14:49.251 --> 00:14:50.831
Damn it.
00:14:50.831 --> 00:14:55.986
Yeah, i mean, i thought, the limit might be three tacos because,
00:14:56.006 --> 00:15:00.957
that's what Matt ordered and I ordered four like by mistake So like they didn't say nothing about the eye.
00:15:01.090 --> 00:15:06.192
So I think we could have just went there for breakfast instead of first watch, which was great.
00:15:06.212 --> 00:15:07.994
First watch was Oh yeah, Shout out to first watch.
00:15:07.994 --> 00:15:08.596
That's some good food.
00:15:09.149 --> 00:15:11.458
But we could have done that and then got lunch too.
00:15:11.458 --> 00:15:13.456
So the back tag thing.
00:15:13.496 --> 00:15:16.817
Cool High quality metal back tag with your name on it.
00:15:16.817 --> 00:15:17.572
That's pretty nice.
00:15:17.572 --> 00:15:19.428
So I mean 250.
00:15:19.428 --> 00:15:25.479
It might have been around 200, really with with the perks right now, but I don't know.
00:15:26.753 --> 00:15:33.991
For those watching live on YouTube one of you It's got the your name They, these are.
00:15:33.991 --> 00:15:35.831
These are, these are great High quality.
00:15:35.871 --> 00:15:36.192
I threw it.
00:15:36.192 --> 00:15:38.038
I don't have any bag tags on my bag.
00:15:38.230 --> 00:15:41.139
I threw that one on my bag because it's it's pretty sick.
00:15:41.139 --> 00:15:43.248
I'm going to have to move one to throw that on there.
00:15:43.649 --> 00:15:48.500
But yeah, and they're, they're in trailers right now because the the resort is still being built, but they, the trailers, are done up.
00:15:48.500 --> 00:15:57.822
Nice, nice bunch of branded bills and Travis Matthews selection on some hats and there's some apparel and I mean it's, it's, yeah, it's a good little spot.
00:15:57.822 --> 00:16:09.159
I mean, there's some there's some built clubhouses in this town that aren't that nice That that that trailer is sick, like it's a well done trailer, you know.
00:16:09.269 --> 00:16:15.918
So that probably only tells you how sick like the actual pro shops going to be, because the trailer itself is pretty sick.
00:16:16.951 --> 00:16:17.513
So I love it.
00:16:17.513 --> 00:16:18.096
We pulled up.
00:16:18.096 --> 00:16:20.789
They have a parking lot attendant.
00:16:20.789 --> 00:16:21.393
I'm going to call them.
00:16:21.393 --> 00:16:26.162
I don't know if they have a title that access or time they verify it.
00:16:26.162 --> 00:16:27.374
They take our bags.
00:16:27.374 --> 00:16:28.918
Joe was blown away.
00:16:28.918 --> 00:16:30.394
They wind ex down the.
00:16:30.594 --> 00:16:36.739
The golf cart before we got into it, cleaned it all, make sure it was, and they're brand new golf carts.
00:16:36.739 --> 00:16:37.413
They're really nice.
00:16:37.413 --> 00:16:40.476
Yeah, we went inside, got checked in, checked out.
00:16:40.476 --> 00:16:41.099
The pro shop.
00:16:41.099 --> 00:16:44.095
You go to your cart and he goes.
00:16:44.095 --> 00:16:45.219
I'll lead you out to the range.
00:16:45.219 --> 00:16:50.499
So you follow him out to the range And then he introduces you to the range.
00:16:50.499 --> 00:16:52.535
Attendant, the practice facility attendant.
00:16:52.535 --> 00:16:55.437
And you know any questions you got about the course.
00:16:55.437 --> 00:16:58.018
You need some teas, you need some yardages.
00:16:58.018 --> 00:17:05.500
They're there to help you out, wipe down your clubs, get you all ready, and then they've got music speakers all over the practice.
00:17:05.500 --> 00:17:09.560
The putting green which we were talking about it last night.
00:17:09.560 --> 00:17:11.153
We're telling Bob about it.
00:17:11.153 --> 00:17:16.942
We went from one end to the other and we tried to put as far as we could.
00:17:16.942 --> 00:17:22.398
I mean all of us like smashed a ball And I don't think any of us got 60 percent of the way.
00:17:22.439 --> 00:17:24.671
Tops, yeah, tops, it's.
00:17:24.671 --> 00:17:26.317
It's ridiculously long.
00:17:26.317 --> 00:17:31.376
It's a 200 yard green, yeah, but tons, tons of fun breaks.
00:17:31.376 --> 00:17:32.574
It's like Joe said, it's.
00:17:32.574 --> 00:17:36.655
It's the closest thing we have to the punch bowl in this region of the country.
00:17:36.655 --> 00:17:39.102
Definitely worth that.
00:17:39.102 --> 00:17:45.125
The practice area, the mats they have mats and grass The mats are really good too, really good.
00:17:45.266 --> 00:17:47.516
All really good, the best mat I've ever hit off of.
00:17:48.089 --> 00:17:50.077
Yeah, plenty of targets to hit at.
00:17:50.077 --> 00:17:59.795
They had, you know, a chipping area that was really nice, with tons of different lies and a bunker which I should have hit out of that bunker just to see what it was like.
00:17:59.795 --> 00:18:02.117
I got some use on the course.
00:18:02.117 --> 00:18:06.076
But And then they head you off to the first tee.
00:18:06.076 --> 00:18:07.777
The starter of the first tee was great.
00:18:07.777 --> 00:18:12.521
Gave you a ball marker and a divot tool and, you know, sent you on your way.
00:18:12.521 --> 00:18:18.710
The putting green by the first tee, Holy crap, Yeah probably the nicest putting green I've ever put it on.
00:18:19.678 --> 00:18:23.200
Yeah, it was flawless, Yeah, flawless.
00:18:23.200 --> 00:18:28.079
And that first hole, it's a great opening hole, uphill dog leg left.
00:18:28.079 --> 00:18:30.586
I got a video of Jeremy hitting it.
