The divide between golf purists and pragmatists takes center stage in this episode as we explore what truly gives a major championship its identity. Fresh off Scottie Scheffler's commanding PGA Championship victory, we examine not just his dominant performance but the deeper question: should prestigious majors be played on familiar tour stops, or does that diminish their special character?
When industry insider Aarik Greenely unexpectedly joins the conversation, the debate intensifies. Drawing from his extensive background in golf, Aarik offers a nuanced perspective on the PGA Championship's place in the major hierarchy—challenging enough to test every aspect of a player's game without crossing into the punitive territory of a US Open. "I don't like watching the best golfers in the world get embarrassed," Greenely asserts, sparking a thoughtful exchange about what makes tournament golf compelling for both players and spectators.
Between discussions of Scheffler's potential Grand Slam path and Harry Hall's strong T19 finish, we share the excitement of our community-building ball marker scavenger hunt across Las Vegas. This local initiative has listeners following social media clues to find hidden Ball Markers at unexpected locations—from local golf centers to poke restaurants. The episode closes with an intimate equipment conversation as we reveal our favorite clubs and golf balls, offering both personal insights and practical recommendations for fellow golf enthusiasts.
Join us next week when Dave from Goodwood Putters visits to share his expertise on custom putters and the craft behind them. Until then, keep an eye on @hittinggreens on Instagram for the next ball marker drop somewhere in the Henderson area!

Speaker 1 (06:17):
You need to do just like 10 of one style uber
exclusive, only availablethrough scavenger hunts yeah, I
mean, there's no limit to this.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
You know it was so much fun.
Uh, I had a blast, so there isgoing to be more.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
I've literally just put in the order for four
different other styles, so youneed to do a big one like this,
big, and we'll do it like jingle, bell rock style, where we'll
give a clue each week, each dayand you have well yeah do you
guys remember the jingle bellrock?
Do you jingle bell?
Speaker 2 (06:56):
no, no uh, it was back when I mean I know the song
, I know the song no, it wasback when uh 107.5 was an
alternative.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Uh, I remember that station and uh, each each year
around christmas they would douh, they, they would hide the
jingle bell rock and it was, Idon't remember what, the.
I think it was ten thousanddollars, something like that.
You won if you found it, butthey would each day have a clue
each day they'd have a cluewhere it's at and uh yeah,
(07:26):
that's the.
I remember one year it was overby where the dmv is now in the
desert and uh, me and a buddy ofmine were, we were on.
We're like, you know, that's alot of money for us and uh, we
were in the desert with about 40other people.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
Well, that's the thing I was thinking.
Maybe I do throw a hat outthere somewhere and that might
be the Jingle Bell Rocksituation If you follow along
all week, maybe there will be ahat at the end of the tunnel.
It was a lot of fun.
I'm really stoked to do that.
It was so cool.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Robbie's had, so many trespassing warnings.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
Yeah, that was fun.
There's more coming.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
There'll be one tomorrow make sure you're
following dreams on instagram,yeah all right.
So, uh, we had the major um anduh, scotty birthday wasn't
wasn't so great um.
But then second day caught fire, started lapping the field,
(08:26):
then it came back and it wasclose.
Dan sent in messages going.
You know we got a tournamentnow and the next thing, you know
Rom and Bryson and everybodyelse just completely melted down
.
Speaker 3 (08:40):
And.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
Scotty walked away with a four-stroke win.
Should have been five, or maybeit was five.
Was it five or four or five?
I can't remember.
Anyways, it was a lot.
He dominated.
He was first in strokes gameputting for greens in regulation
.
It was a great showing by himand since Jordan didn't win the
(09:08):
Grand Slam and we lost ouropportunity to have two Grand
Slam winners in one year, nowit's back because if Scottie
wins at Oakmont and Port Rush,he will complete the Slam, so
there is still a chance ofhaving two slam winners in one
year that'd be sick, which wouldbe, I mean to be around when
(09:31):
that happens.
It's a historical moment sorooting for him I I really think
he's the front runner foroakmont.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
Clearly I mean yeah, with how straight he hit the
ball I saw some edits today oninstagram where it was like like
some hard ass was it real?
Speaker 1 (09:48):
was it real?
Joe, was it real?
Yeah, it was real.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
Ass trap music real and he was like they were like
it was like a song right, andthey're they're showing him like
playing and then they show himin cuffs and it's like you know
I'm from the trenches, kind ofvibe dude.
That shit was sick, but uh, Ididn't I didn't watch a ton.
I didn't watch a ton.
I thought it was kind of boring.
But sunday provided some drama,thankfully, I think, especially
(10:18):
with rom dude.
Rom is such a hothead and likesomebody, put some ayahuasca in
his like he probably took anayahuasca trip recently because
he was so like chill, you knowwhat I mean.
Yeah, he wasn't hot at all, andthat's what we expect from him
I'm sure he was hot on theinside oh, yeah, he was because,
(10:40):
no, I don't think so.
I think he, I think it wasgenuine, I do think it was
genuine after the round he had,he had told reporters that he
was embarrassed.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
Yeah, so I don't.
I don't know if that's in arage or not, but he was
definitely going through it Ilike how earlier in the week, um
they uh were showing uh tyrellhatton on the first round.
They're like.
The announcers even said thatthey're not going to keep any
microphones around too becausehe's liable dude.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
He was.
He was cussing out his driver.
Speaker 3 (11:16):
That was hilarious I love that dude that's speaking
of drivers.
That's what people want it'scrazy.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
That's what people want, dude people want to see
that like I know I love it allthe mics, put all the mics on to
route, you know yeah, they.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
Uh.
I think everybody wants it, butthey're so scared of it they're
so scared of it yeah, justbecause you know, with jt and
his spaghet camp comment, andyou know then, yeah, the tampon
gate with tiger and justinthere's just, yeah, they're so
scared of just upsetting thepublic figures, bro, like people
(11:54):
are gonna.
People are gonna see that shit,you know I know, I know, even if
it happens, somebody in thecrowd's gonna have a video of it
yep, I think, uh, thrill havinghis emotions and wearing it out
.
There it's.
There's not one person I knowthat has golf that has not hit a
shot, where they've wanted todo the exact same thing or have
(12:14):
done the exact same thing youknow it's it's a hard, hard game
, and sometimes the emotions getthe best of you I loved the
shane lowry moment.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
That was my favorite.
Yeah, yeah, that was so good,yeah that was pretty cool and
especially the clip from scratchwith uh dan rapaport and he
hits it and then he goes lovethat.
I know I sent it to you and itwas timed so perfectly Like that
was so good.
I mean embed it.
That was an embedded ball inthe fairway, no doubt about it.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
Well, what's it?
Speaker 1 (12:53):
was that there was some doubt about it but that
wasn't his mark.
Speaker 3 (12:56):
I think there was, it was.
I know but, there was Mark butand he rolled into it.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
Right, so it was it.
And he rolled into it.
Right, so it was a pre-embeddedball.
That's the thing.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
That's where the rules.
It was a pre-existing divot.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
Yeah, it was that, that's how he got fucked.
Exactly that was embedded.
What are the odds of that shitthough?
Right, that's crazy.
That's got to be a million toone.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
I'm surprised it doesn't happen more often, with
as consistent as these guys are,of hitting the ball where they
hit it.
I mean, you see all the divotsin one area of certain holes all
the time and it's amazing thatballs don't find them more often
.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
But yeah, you watch the show and it's like, oh, it's
going to end up in a divot andit never does.
Speaker 1 (13:42):
Never does.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
It's very rare that it does.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
Very rare yeah luckily irish, I guess.
For him.
Yeah right, yeah, uh.
So scotty, of course, pads hisstats as the top player in the
world.
His owgr continues to rise.
Uh, xander shoffley made thecut, so his streak got extended.
His cut streak he's still amillion years away from Tiger,
(14:12):
but it's still an active streak,so it's going.
Scottie's continuous weeks atnumber one is still growing.
I want to give some love toHarry Harry Hall.
He was in the tournament andfinished T19.
So congrats to him.
A nice little $193,000 paycheck, so that's nice.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
He is now 65th on the money list on the PGA Tour.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
He's brought in $1.4 million this year Good job.
Harry, good boy, harold, yeahyeah, he's been on a good run
and I thought his OWGR was gonnabe lower.
It's at 92 right now.
He was previously at 82.
Was his all his best?
He's at 92 right now, um, butuh, he's had.
You know, he's beenconsistently in the top 30 last
(14:59):
four or five tournaments.
So congrats to him on his goodplay.
Yeah and uh, I have to find outif that automatically gets him
in the open or or not, I'mpretty sure it does top 20 in a
major.
I'm sure there's some uhaccolades for that jeremy, if
you're still listening, find out.
I didn't have time to look intothat pack those doggy bags you
(15:25):
know, last week we talked a lotabout Quail Hollow, seeing it so
much and the course you knowit's in the regular rotation and
now they're playing a major atit again a big event.
Joe, you said you didn't watchmuch, but from what you did
watch, were you okay with thecourse or are you still done
with it?
(15:45):
You okay with the course?
Speaker 2 (15:45):
or do you?
Are you still?
I mean, yeah, the course is,the course is sick.
I mean, I have no issues withthe course, it's just um.
Someone during the vgntournament we played this
weekend stopped me and was likeI completely agree with you.
I'm not gonna say any names,but why not?
He was.
I mean I'll tell you guys after.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
Yeah, I'm gonna tell you guys after.
Uh, nobody listening probablyknows mean.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
I'll tell you guys after I'm gonna, yeah, yeah, I'm
gonna tell you guys after uh.
Nobody listening probably knows, but I'll tell you guys after.
Uh, he is a true links wherefan, now, shout out true links
where because, uh, he used, uhhe, he jumped on that bandwagon
through our recommendations.
But anyway, uh, his name is DanDan Hodges.
(16:24):
No, I'm kidding, his first nameis Dan, though it was me, so
you probably know who it is.
But no, I just think the courselooks sick.
Dude, I have no issues with thecourse.
The only issue I have is whenthere is a major somewhere that
hosts a regular tour stop.
That's all it is.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Okay, I know that and that's what I'm talking about
though um, I mean you.
You beat that to a, I'll beatit again last week um but I
would say so.
With that mentally in yourbrain, were you able to watch
the tournament and enjoy it, orwere you just hell bentbent on?
Speaker 2 (17:07):
this shouldn't be taking place here right now.
Yeah, I didn't really enjoy itvery much.
I enjoyed it when Rom was onthe chase.
I watched Sunday, I watchedmost of Sunday when we got home,
but there was no drama, andthat's why.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
And you think that's because of the course.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
No, no, not at all.
It wasn't because of the course.
No, I think that's what's sogreat about Augusta National.
Yeah, we go there every year,but it provides drama.
Majors need drama.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
Oh, we're going, and see some drama at oakmont hell
yeah, I'm down.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
Like I typically do not care who wins unless I have
a bet on them, um, but if Idon't have a bet on anybody in
the in the hunt, then I wantdrama.
And when rama was making hischase I was like, hell yeah,
let's go.
And then he fell apart and thenit was like, oh well, scottie
(18:10):
got it again.
I have nothing against ScottieScheffler at all.
Like we called him out yearsago, he's going to be a great
player.
But I just think majors deservethat drama and unfortunately,
this year did not provide thatit could have.
(18:31):
Maybe it would have made it abetter, maybe it would have
changed my outlook on things,but no, I, I still stand by.
I will beat this into theground.
Don't play majors at tour stopsand choose courses that provide
drama.
Speaker 1 (18:49):
I'm going to Robbie had a good point.
Tournament was exciting for 20minutes on the back nine Sunday
and then died with an hour leftexactly exactly, put that on a
shirt and sell it hey, onceagain I'm going to send this
invite to Greenlee.
(19:09):
He wants us to have him on in acouple weeks.
But the next couple weeks?
But how about right now?
There, greenlee, I just sentyou a link.
Hop on, I don't know who?
Speaker 3 (19:20):
I don't know who it was, but there was a video I saw
and I'm not sure if it was oninstagram or wherever the fuck
it was, but they talked aboutreformatting the pga
championship and matt your, yourdecision about bringing back
the match play was in it, joe,did you see it?
When they talk about they'redoing the first two rounds of
(19:40):
metal play, I sent that to youguys, I think was it you?
Was it you, joe?
yeah yeah, anyway, yeah, andthen they took the top 32 and
then they did a match play untilthe final four.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
I think that would be sick 36 holes in one day?
Speaker 3 (19:56):
That would be awesome .
I mean, I think it turns out tobe like 90 holes or something
like that played.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
Yeah, it's a lot.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
We've played 85 in one day.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
That would be an absolute grueling test.
Yeah, and I think it would beawesome and it would be an
absolute grueling test of golfand I think it would be awesome
and it would be cool to see,like, even if that were to
happen, to even see like theClub Pro guy, like Michael Block
, or something like that, grindit out.
Yeah, grinding it out againstScotty, or, you know, like Kyle
(20:31):
Mendoza against Rory.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
Yeah, I mean, make those guysty or, you know, like
kyle mendoza against rory.
You know something like thatworld.
You know it could belife-changing.
Yeah, that's what I think itwould be so sick is like.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
Pgh championship is like a gruel, it's like a duel,
it's like a grind to the finish,like and that's all I've said
is like they missing theiridentity, but like that would be
so dope if they did that andthat became their identity.
And Rob says, uh, PGAchampionship next year is at
Aronamic Great Can't wait to see.
(21:03):
Aronamic.
It's not played.
It's not played on tour stops,right, that's what we need,
that's yeah.
Speaker 3 (21:12):
We need more, more need more, more exactly I agree,
more, more.
The top 100 great thesebeautiful showcase golf courses
there's so many get them intothe majors, bring them in.
I mean fuck.
I mean, how good was I?
I can't wait for them to goback to the us open.
I got to see that shit live.
Yeah, in 2012 I walked thosegrounds and that course was.
I mean, joe, I know you're anarchitect geek and you would
(21:34):
have absolutely loved seeingsome of that shit out there and
we haven't seen it since, sohopefully, hopefully, they.
You know this trend of what yearwas greatness?
Speaker 1 (21:45):
2012, I believe man, you're just 13, 13 red baskets.

If people are on the internet, they know.
Speaker 3 (24:04):
Oh they know Good job .
I appreciate that, thank you.
Speaker 4 (24:09):
So back to a year ago to calm down.
The PGA tournament is fair inmy opinion.
Fair.
Us Open greens to an extentfair.
You have rough for majorsbecause we all love the Masters,
(24:31):
but there's no rough.
Let's just call it what it is.
There's not correct?
Um, we cannot.
I don't know how you saythere's a word for it.
I don't know what the word isright now, but you cannot
recreate, uh, open conditions.
But if you can make thefairways fast and firm and kind
(24:54):
of play the golf ball on theground, then to an extent it's
kind of the open, but it's not.
I know it's not rainingsideways and blowing 30 and it's
40 outside.
I get that.
But the pj championship, in myopinion, is all-encompassing of
(25:14):
all of those elements, to theextent they can predict them and
they just do the best they canwith what they have to.
Now, as far as, being on atournament course, if you will.
The fact that you can make atournament course, that
versatile, the fact that you canmake those whatever the courses
(25:35):
are, well, yeah, I get that Isee that yeah 100 you can.
I understand seeing differentcourses.
I understanding making golfmore accessible than seeing
places we've never seen.
Buddy, I get it, we're on thesame page, but unfortunately
that's not how golf works.
So how about we take thosecourses that we've already seen
(26:00):
that can be put in a tournamentshape and do the best they can
with what they have right?
So you're not going to see amajor at trinity forest here in
dallas?
Speaker 2 (26:11):
okay, so here's my thing with that.
Here's my thing with that here.
Why don't?
Speaker 4 (26:16):
why, don't.
That's right brother andfreaking matt won't even stop
laughing because he knows what's, but I'm listening okay, if, if
, if that was their identity,why wouldn't they do it at a pga
tour?
stop every year and show thedifferences of how far you can
grow the ref no I think you canmake it yeah, you know what I
mean here's here's the catch andthis is somebody who's worked
(26:41):
on the other side of it and I'mnot saying I know I'm not saying
please legend legend he's alegend.
I wish I was there because Iwould punch you in the nuts.
I know you would, brother.
So I'm not saying I know allthe back end stuff because I
don't, but not every tournamentcourse can host a major.
(27:02):
Let's just be real about it.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
It's not a.
Thing.
Speaker 4 (27:06):
So the fact that I'm going to literally agree with
you and disagree with you withwhat I'm going to literally like
agree with you and disagreewith you what with what I'm
about to say.
So there's a reason.
The player is played at theplayers right yeah I'm sorry at
tbz sawgrass it was built for it, correct, and we can argue all
(27:28):
day long.
But it should be a major.
But quail hollow can hold agolf tournament, if you will,
normal and a major.
I was a member at craig ranchfor five years, four, whatever.
Five years we'll we'll go inthe middle.
This is gonna sound stupid topeople because they see the
(27:49):
scores that they shoot out there.
You can hold a major at craigranch, but the catches and
matt's like hot take so.
But now I can see the face.
Dude, I know you.
If you narrow the fairways andyou grow the rough, it can be
done right.
It just it depends on the golfcourse.
(28:10):
It's, it's all a see.
Shout out the agronomist.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
Shout out the agronomists, shout out the
agronomists, greenskeepers,shout out all those guys.
Speaker 4 (28:17):
Right, but there's a reason they blew it up.
Now the catch is, the Nelsonwas played the week before the
PGA Championship.
So do you want to get kicked inthe nuts two weeks in a row?
No, it's not fun.
So how about we give a golfcourse to players, make some
birdies, make some low scores,build some confidence?
(28:40):
Then we go to the PGA Right.
So the, the Nelson and Dallasshouldn't be played the first
week in May, shouldn't?
It's going to rain here.
You might get a tornado, likeyou don't know, what's gonna
happen, right like it's very,very easy to leave, live here
and be like, oh it's raining, ohthere's a nelson, oh it's
(29:01):
raining.
All the colonials here, it justit's, it's what it is, man,
right.
So not saying they should movethem, like I was trying to run
the tour.
I was trying to do that stuff,but being a part of it, for eric
monahan over here, eric monahan18.
So golf 25 years.
I've been on the other side ofit for 18 of the 25 years.
(29:26):
There's so much money andpolitics involved like yeah
living here not wanting to livehere, not wanting to be here.
I would love to see atournament every week at Shadow
Creek, but the fact of thatspace between those tee boxes
(29:48):
and all that stuff like itbaffles me that they walk that
golf course.
When they play the match and allthat nonsense.
I'm like well, that's whythere's so many commercial
breaks.
Have you played there?
They're like no.
Yeah, you have no idea how farspread out that is?
Speaker 1 (30:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (30:04):
And that's the stuff I wish people knew.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
Yeah, you're right.
Speaker 4 (30:07):
Like they like the CJ Cup I.
To my my knowledge, they signedan eight-year deal, so last
year on tv that golf courselooked like I put it together
with legos, you could see thedrainage.
You can see all this nonsenselet's be fair about what it is
right, yeah that's why they blewit up so now they're gonna play
(30:29):
the event cool, we're blowingit up monday like what remember?
so you have to abide by certainthings and it just it.
How do I say this?
Actually, it doesn't matter.
Like freaking, come beat me up,who cares?
Speaker 2 (30:45):
like no, no, I totally get what you're saying.
Speaker 4 (30:48):
If tbc sawgrass can be in, shape for the tournament,
so can craig ranch so can theother tour stops, so all that
stuff.
Yeah, and so we're.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
You're held to a standard, so make the standard
like you have a bajillionfucking figure it out, right it
was when I was talking withbrian herbert from las vegas
golf insider about the rough atlas vegas country club, the live
event, because I've played outthere where the rough is thick.
(31:17):
And I was like it's a tightcourse, it's not a difficult
course, it's fairly flat, it'sright in front of you.
The greens are tricky but Isaid they're going to grow that
rough and make it a penalty shotto hit out of it.
And we get out there and it wasthis high and I was like what
the fuck?
And he goes.
(31:38):
It don't grow in the winteryeah, you know and he goes, they
can't grow it they.
They could water it every dayfor a month and you know,
non-stop.
It's not going to grow becauseit's too cold.
And I was like, okay, thatmakes sense.
Speaker 4 (31:52):
So I mean, I can see why they didn't come back no, to
your point, like a live eventhere in dallas, at meridot, so
that's where a lot of the tourplayers play and whatever.
Well, that's stupid, like Ican't believe they do that.
And they only shot, you know,for three days they only shot
(32:12):
five, six under.
People have no idea how hardthat golf course is.
So like, originally it wascalled colombian club and then
it went from colombian club tohonors club and there was a
gentleman here who wanted tojoin a club and they told him he
had to wait, and he told him totrick and suck a bag of dicks
(32:35):
and he bought honors club, whichhe turned into merido and when
the wind which you guys knowthis, being there and being here
, the wind is going to blow,it's just what it is.
Yeah, so then, like well, undertoday, like that was amazing,
and people are like, well,that's stupid, you have no idea
(32:56):
how hard that golf course is.
Speaker 2 (32:59):
I mean, that's a whole other thing, bro, no no,
no, they need to shoot under parin the score Like it doesn't
matter.
Speaker 4 (33:07):
I need you to stay on topic with us All, right All
right, I'm going to go to thebathroom.
I love on topic with us.
All right.
All right, I'm gonna go to thebathroom.
I love you too, but it's justwhen you get on those things and
like when they played bowlingbrook and outside of chicago my
cousin lives 20 minutes fromthere I've played the golf
course.
Well, you can't play that.
(33:28):
It's only 80 bucks.
The golf course is unbelievable, right.
So you get these craig ranchesand you get these stuff before
majors dude it.
Just they're so hard, man, likethey're so so hard robbie's got
some comments unless you'regoing to p joe no, I was kidding
(33:51):
because you were.
Speaker 2 (33:52):
You were on a tangent , so I'm a product oh whoa, all
right.
Speaker 1 (33:58):
So robbie says I'm giving the pga lineup a chance.
Frisco aeronomic, justdifferent types of courses.
Yes, yes, I.
And then, uh, in regards tolive, they came to vegas super
bowl weekend, gave out ticketsto all the club promoters and
called it let's see when thefootball college championships
and final four are here.
So I'm.
Speaker 2 (34:15):
Let me ask eric this what is, what is the identity of
the pga championship?
Is it because all the only proscan play?
No, is it?
It's to show that golf coursescan go into a into major shape
because of the agronomy team?
That's what I heard.
I don't know anything aboutgrowing grass, yeah, so that's
(34:39):
what I'm curious about.
I know, I know you don't.
Speaker 1 (34:46):
Joe's dead set on.
Majors have to have an identity.
Speaker 4 (34:51):
I remember.
So my answer to that is I, inmy opinion, and then being
around it, the PGA championshipgrows rough, like certain events
.
It has greens that are US OpenFest ish, but fair to an extent
(35:16):
because it's not burnout.
It's not concrete.
I think it Ish, but fair to anextent because it's not burnout.
It's not concrete.
I think it encompasseseverything.
You need distance, you needyardage, you need accuracy, you
need to hit greens, you needspots, you need to be able to
hit out of rough, because you'regoing to hit every fairway.
You have to be able to do allthat stuff to hit out of rough,
(35:38):
because you're going to hitevery fairway.
You have to be able to do allthat stuff, because I will argue
that if you hit the rough inthe US Open, you hit the green.
It's not going to stop, it'sgoing to roll off the back.
I think in a PGA Championship,again, in my opinion, if you hit
the right spot, it's going tosomewhat stop, remotely close to
where you want to be, which aUS Open will not do that.
(35:59):
So what you're saying is it'san easier US Open.
Speaker 2 (36:04):
It's an easier US Open.
That's the identity of a PG.
I disagree.
Speaker 4 (36:10):
I think the Greens might be.
That's what you said.
I did not say that You'reputting words in my mouth.
Come on, Joe.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
Don't put words in Eric's mouth.
Speaker 4 (36:18):
Come on, dude.
Speaker 2 (36:19):
It's what you described.
Sorry, you didn't say that.
Speaker 3 (36:24):
Do you think it's more of like a and you shouldn't
really say this for a majortournament, but do you think
it's more of a prep to get readyfor what the US Open is going
to be?
Because literally everythingyou said that you have to do in
a PGA championship you have todo in a U S open too, but,
granted the conditions aremagnified times 10.
Speaker 4 (36:46):
Yes, I think you can prepare for a U S open and if
you hit a good shot and do agreen, you still get poked in
the booty hole in a pgachampionship again.
My opinion you can hit a decentshot in the green and still end
up with maybe at least you'reon the green, if that makes
(37:09):
sense, like at least you're havea putt for it, not saying
you're gonna make the putt, notsaying you're not gonna three
putt or we've watched peoplewatch.
I'm sorry we've make the putt,not saying you're not going to
three putt or we've watchedpeople watch.
I'm sorry we've watched peopleputt.
How do you say that Putts off agreen?
Of course, but at least you'reon the green, which at US Open
(37:29):
you will not be.
Speaker 3 (37:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (37:32):
And you chip it on the green and then you're off
the green again and you like, Idon't mind hard golf, I don't
want to watch.
Not saying he would do it, butI don't want to watch scotty
scheffler hit the green, it rolloff the back him, chip it on
the green, lip it out for thechip, go off the green and just
(37:54):
keep going back and forth likeit's not fun to me.
The best golfers in the world Idon't want to see them be
embarrassed Now you get a badshot in the water or whatever
things happen.
Speaker 3 (38:08):
Correct.
Speaker 4 (38:12):
I think that's fair From your perspective.
Do you find?
Speaker 1 (38:15):
the.
Speaker 3 (38:16):
PGA Championship more enjoyable to watch than the US
Open.
Speaker 1 (38:17):
So, from your perspective, do you find the PGA
Championship more enjoyable towatch than the US Open?
Speaker 4 (38:25):
my side.
Yes, I watch the.
I love watching the Open, thePGA.
I don't mind the US Open.
I don't like people beingembarrassed.
Speaker 2 (38:41):
Like I grew up in chicago watching michael jordan,
I don't want to see michaeljordan playing against us for,
like I don't want to see peopleget embarrassed like it's not
fun to me yeah yeah, that'sinteresting, though, like the
different perspectives, becauseyou have seen the other side,
you know what I mean, and it'slike I don't want to see people
get embarrassed.
Speaker 1 (39:02):
But, like you know, he just wants it mic'd up I, I
would love it mic'd up 100percent.
Speaker 2 (39:10):
Um, I do agree with your statement about it being
fair for the best golf courses.
Uh, best golfers in the world,yeah, um, I just I would love to
see them highlight some of theother.
Like dude, how sick would midpines be?
Never, championship, yeah, Imean, they probably can't host
(39:31):
it.
But like I just I want, I wantit never would happen.
They just I want our pineneedles Never.
Pine needles is not a touristspot.
Lpga tour.
Speaker 3 (39:42):
Play the U S open, yeah.
Speaker 2 (39:46):
Like, how sick would pine needles be?
For?
I just want them to highlightsome of the great call golf
courses that are around thiscountry that you have the
opportunity to play or networkto be able to play.
That's all I want.
I want them to create anidentity of being a little bit
different than the US Open andthen to your point, they are PGA
(40:14):
pros playing in it who arecoming from these other golf
courses.
Speaker 4 (40:18):
So why, if their golf course I don't know how you
measure it, but if it qualifies,then they should be on it.
I don't see anything wrong withthat.
I agree with that see.
Speaker 2 (40:29):
So the us open gives a chance for anybody in the
country to grind their waythrough an extensive qualifier.
That's a person at a golfcourse, I know, but exactly why
does the PGA Championship playthe same golf courses
(40:51):
occasionally, occasionally, notall the time I can give you the
answer, but literally you'regoing to get banned.
Speaker 4 (40:59):
If I give you the answer on, literally you're
gonna get banned.
If I give you the answer.
Speaker 2 (41:01):
I don't need to hear the answer, but I just, I just
want them.
I'll text it to you guys.
Yeah, I just, I just want.
I just want them.
I just want them to sit like Ilike the pga championship.
My only grief with them is Idon't need to see something I've
seen before.
I want them to play something Ihaven't seen.
And that's politics, and that'sall that, and I get that.
Speaker 4 (41:24):
But I don't think there's anything wrong with what
you're saying Like, yeah,that's all it is.
It's the same principle butdifferent meaning.
I'm going to go see JosephBramlett at colonial Thursday.
If my friends aren't playing, Idon't care, I don't want to go,
I don't want to see it.
I don't want to go to a golftournament.
(41:46):
I legit could give a damn Ifone of you three are in it.
I'm in.
I want to go see you.
Better be there, I'm going togo heckle you there.
Well, I'm going to heckle you,so there's a chance I might get
kicked out, but that's why I go.
That's what I enjoy, that'swhat I want to see.

We really appreciate you tuningin the show and coming on and
spewing your love for the gameyeah love for the game.

So, um, let's do, do, do, boom,oh, no, we'll just leave that
(44:05):
like that, all right, uh, so, um, we had somebody leave a
question before the show evenstarted.
Uh, it was from uh, shannon, uh, 13 brewing.
Uh, hey guys, couple questions.
Do each of you have a favoriteclub you swing?
Do each of you have a favoriteclub you swing?
Do each of you have a favoriteball to hit?
Thanks, looking forward tohearing it tomorrow.
So I'll leave that up there, uh, and we can and we'll, we'll go
(44:29):
around, we'll go, you know,around, robin here.
Uh, dan, what, what would uh,what would your answers be to
that?
Speaker 3 (44:39):
I don't have a favorite club.
I have two favorite clubs,actually three favorite clubs
Right now.
Well, of course, the driver,because everybody likes it and
bombs.
I love my new putter, soputting is my second favorite
thing right now.
Putting is my second favoritething right now and my third
(45:04):
favorite club right now is myfive wood, my apex uw I
absolutely love that club murderI smash that fucking club
murder.
It's so easy to hit and I hit itstraight.
So, yeah, those are.
Those are my three.
And then favorite golf ball uh,for the longest for the last 25
years it's been a Pro V1 model,whether it's bouncing back and
(45:25):
forth between the 1 and the 1X,but currently, right now,
experimenting with the CallawayTriple Diamond and really liking
that one.
So right now I think theCallaway Triple Diamond is going
to go in the bag for a while.
Speaker 1 (45:42):
Very good golf ball.
Speaker 3 (45:44):
Very good golf ball.
Speaker 1 (45:46):
Very good, joe, what you got.
Speaker 2 (45:49):
I'm second because you're going to go on a tangent.
Nope, nope, nope.
Speaker 1 (45:53):
I just can't wait to hear you go 64 degree wide open,
five feet from the front of thegreen to a front pin.
I'm full swing in that bitch.
60 feet in the air.
Speaker 2 (46:03):
Favorite clubs a one iron, I have one in the bag lion
, uh, no, obviously my favoritegolf club in the bag is a lob
wedge 60 degree, no 58s, no 62s,60 degree lob wedge, 60 all day
.
Uh, that is my favorite.
(46:24):
Love my five wood.
Uh, turned down like a four.
Still don't love the shaft inthat thing, um, but we'll dial
it in one day.
Love the driver.
Love hitting bombs, of course,um.
Favorite ball I used to lovethe pro v1, but, uh, I love the
pro v1x.
(46:45):
Yellow only, uh, only yellowgolf balls.
For me, yellow pro v1x is whatI prefer to play.
But I also love, love, love thelove.
The Wilson Staff model, not theX, but just the regular Staff
model, the current version.
Love that ball.
(47:05):
I prefer to only play thePro-V1X or the Wilson Staff
model.
And what else is?
Speaker 1 (47:15):
that, that's it.
Speaker 2 (47:16):
Yeah, that's it.
I'm super picky with everything, so I won't rock a bag with a
big logo from an OEM Callaway orTitleist or TaylorMade thing on
my thing because I like to.
Speaker 1 (47:34):
Where's that question at?
Speaker 2 (47:38):
I don't see that question.
Speaker 1 (47:40):
No, I'm just saying it.
Speaker 2 (47:46):
Oh okay, all right, no, I'm just, I'm just saying it
.
Oh okay, all right, I'm just me, that's, that's joe, going on a
tangent, yeah, tangent.
I don't, I don't rock oem uhbags because, uh, if I don't
have your club in the bag, Iwould feel like a loser.
I don't, I don't like malletcovers I, I rock a blade.
Shot off strokes game.
Shout out goodwood, shout outolsen.
Um, yeah, I am me and I'm proudof it and, most importantly,
(48:09):
use what you want to use andwhat works for you.
Most importantly, angry laterimportantly, hang grease later.
Speaker 1 (48:32):
Yeah, oh okay.
I don't really have a favoriteclub, um I I love chipping with
my 54, so if, if anything, I'dhave to go with that.
I don't hit bombs, so Driver'snot like it's just a club for me
because I don't hit bombs andmy go-to.
(48:52):
I've been trying the CallawayChrome Tour for a couple weeks
now, just not happy with it offthe tee like I have been every
other time.
So the last two rounds I'veplayed I went back to the Wilson
Staff model Just a damn goodgolf ball.
It's so underrated, absolutelyso underrated.
(49:13):
We were talking at Summit withSteve, the head pro out there
and we were talking golf ballsand he wasn't.
It was when the triple diamondball just came out and we were
telling him about it and he saidMatt, what ball do you play?
And I said I play the WilsonStaff model.
He goes, oh, you're the one.
So yeah, it doesn't get a lotof press but it's a really,
(49:36):
really good golf ball.
Speaker 2 (49:38):
It really is a great golf ball.
Dan played it for a little bit,jeremy's probably played it
right.
Speaker 1 (49:44):
Jeremy's been playing it.
Speaker 2 (49:47):
Yeah, it's really good, really good, Hide that
here.
Speaker 1 (49:51):
I'll show you my bombs Ready.
Speaker 2 (49:54):
I didn't get any of these videos.
What the hell's going on overhere?
Oh yeah.
Speaker 3 (50:00):
Rich Bomb, bomb 3-40.
Speaker 1 (50:08):
Then we had this one Boom.
Speaker 3 (50:11):
Yeah, shot Rich 3-36.
Great shot.
Speaker 2 (50:17):
I got a video from Rocky of me missing a putt and
you got you hitting the fairway.
Speaker 1 (50:22):
Yeah, well, you know.
Speaker 2 (50:26):
Hey, shout out to the Golf Fathers, go follow them on
YouTube.
Instagram Rocky.
We got to play with Rocky inthe Vegas Golf Network
tournament.

They're doing great things, man, they really are.
Speaker 1 (50:36):
Yeah, it was a blast.
They're doing great things, man, they really are.
I was talking with StevenJackson last night and I was
telling him I said you know itwas hilarious.
I played with Rocky out atCascada.
Jeremy and I played with himand Gino at Cascada one day, but
I've never been in the car withhim and he had Pete shout out.
(50:57):
Pete, awesome guy.
He had him out there doing thevideo.
He recorded the whole tournament, all the strokes that Rocky
took, and it was hilariousbecause I hear him talking.
He was talking so much and youknow, I don't care, it doesn't
bother me whatsoever but it waslike if I was thinking out loud,
(51:18):
that's what I would be doing.
Yeah, and so it was.
It was totally like rocky'sinner thoughts being expressed,
and it was.
It was.
Speaker 2 (51:28):
it was fun to watch, it was fun to be around he was
talking to the people, peoplewatching, you know yeah, I know,
I know, but it's, it's.
Speaker 1 (51:38):
It's a different way of seeing somebody golf, because
the the communication that hewas doing to the camera, that
shit that we all do every singleday, but it's in our head, you
know, and he he puts it outthere, so it's it's.
Uh, it's, it's fun to watch theshow.

scenes, but like dude rocky'ssuch a good dude and pete was

So it is what it is.
Ball marker will be hiddensomewhere in the las vegas
valley tomorrow at some point, Idon't know when, where oh, do
you know what you should do?
Speaker 1 (59:47):
you should tell, tell people where you're going to

Speaker 3 (59:55):
Oh, I have no idea.
Speaker 2 (59:57):
He has no idea fausto's parking lot no table
six shout out big matt, he wason the hunt today and uh, big
matt has uh roberto's plugs.
So there might be a situationwhere you go order a hidden
green special at a certainroberto's and, uh, you get a
ball marker oh, I don't know ifthat.
(01:00:19):
I don't know if that's gonnahappen, but it's potential damn
um, yeah right, yeah and youknow what the.
You know what the hit and greenspecial would be, but we might
add a little certain sauce to itif you will.
But uh, we'll see yeah, cliffshocked.
Speaker 1 (01:00:36):
It wasn't in a bean burrito somewhere.
Speaker 2 (01:00:38):
Yeah, I know there will be one, not saying it's
going to happen tomorrow, butthere will be one at Zia Records
, that's for sure.
I think it's kind of cool alsohiding these ball markers across
Vegas in certain spots that.

express.
So goodwill, yeah, yeah,goodwills, because I need
inventory.
If you want to sell clubs, letme know.
(01:01:18):
Uh, I will offer you less thanyou would want, but if you want
to do it, I'm your man robbiesaid he's not going to roberto's
for bnc no, it would be a flipon a bnc.
So it would there, would there,wouldn't?
It wouldn't just be a bean andcheese, it would be like
(01:01:40):
something extra.
Speaker 4 (01:01:41):
For sure I'm not going to just do that to you
because that wouldn't be a hit,and green special yeah, we'll
see if that happens.
Speaker 2 (01:01:50):
I'm not going to say it right now, that wouldn't be
special.
You get it, you get it.
If you want a ball marker, yougo order it and you get it and
you bite into it and it is whatit is.
I'm not going to tell you whatit is.
I mean like I'm blind ordering.
Speaker 3 (01:02:09):
I'm blind ordering you should, it will be it will
be bean and cheese withsomething hit bean and cheese
with hitting green slaps in themand it won't be just the wrap
is all slaps.
Speaker 2 (01:02:23):
It won't be a bean.
If I did that, I would myjournal must die.
Speaker 1 (01:02:30):
He choked on this.
Speaker 2 (01:02:31):
If I did that, I would have to take the time out
to hang out, so I would probablybe there.
Oh, Joe working the counter atroberto not working the crime.
Speaker 1 (01:02:42):
Yeah, I like it, I like it, the drive-thru window
dude, I've worked drive-thruwindows.
Speaker 2 (01:02:49):
I'm good with that.
You'd be good on that radio browell, that would uh, that would
eliminate the uh, therandomness of the Roberto's
location.
Speaker 1 (01:02:58):
Here we go, East Sando, hitting greens ball
marker.
Speaker 2 (01:03:04):
questionable 7-11 in the Valley must-see TV.

Speaker 2 (01:03:18):
I'm not telling anybody head, I know what it
would be.
Speaker 3 (01:03:20):
I'm not telling anybody, but I know what it
would be you're hitting greenspecials should be an egg salad
sandwich from 7-eleven sold atsold at roberto's good egg, egg
salad e sandals would hit forsure, but but no, I know it
would be a bean and cheese withsomething else.
Speaker 2 (01:03:43):

that out.
That's down the road, but therewill be a ball marker hidden
tomorrow somewhere, probably inHenderson area.

ranch Henderson.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
Green Valley Ranch is a great spot, green Valley.
Ranch area, but I am going todo one tomorrow.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
Yeah, yeah, that was fun and I ordered four other
styles so it's gonna be a.
It's gonna be a real livepokemon chase to catch them all.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
So you gotta catch them all yeah, you need.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
You need to do just like 10 of one style uber
exclusive, only availablethrough scavenger hunts yeah, I
mean, there's no limit to this.
Speaker 2 (06:29):
You know it was so much fun.
Uh, I had a blast, so there isgoing to be more.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
I've literally just put in the order for four
different other styles, so youneed to do a big one like this,
big, and we'll do it like jingle, bell rock style, where we'll
give a clue each week, each dayand you have well yeah do you
guys remember the jingle bellrock?
Do you jingle bell?
Speaker 2 (06:56):
no, no uh, it was back when I mean I know the song
, I know the song no, it wasback when uh 107.5 was an
alternative.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
Uh, I remember that station and uh, each each year
around christmas they would douh, they, they would hide the
jingle bell rock and it was, Idon't remember what, the.
I think it was ten thousanddollars, something like that.
You won if you found it, butthey would each day have a clue
each day they'd have a cluewhere it's at and uh yeah,
(07:26):
that's the.
I remember one year it was overby where the dmv is now in the
desert and uh, me and a buddy ofmine were, we were on.
We're like, you know, that's alot of money for us and uh, we
were in the desert with about 40other people.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
Well, that's the thing I was thinking.
Maybe I do throw a hat outthere somewhere and that might
be the Jingle Bell Rocksituation If you follow along
all week, maybe there will be ahat at the end of the tunnel.
It was a lot of fun.
I'm really stoked to do that.
It was so cool.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Robbie's had, so many trespassing warnings.
Speaker 2 (08:02):
Yeah, that was fun.
There's more coming.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
There'll be one tomorrow make sure you're
following dreams on instagram,yeah all right.
So, uh, we had the major um anduh, scotty birthday wasn't
wasn't so great um.
But then second day caught fire, started lapping the field,
(08:26):
then it came back and it wasclose.
Dan sent in messages going.
You know we got a tournamentnow and the next thing, you know
Rom and Bryson and everybodyelse just completely melted down
.
Speaker 3 (08:40):
And.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
Scotty walked away with a four-stroke win.
Should have been five, or maybeit was five.
Was it five or four or five?
I can't remember.
Anyways, it was a lot.
He dominated.
He was first in strokes gameputting for greens in regulation
.
It was a great showing by himand since Jordan didn't win the
(09:08):
Grand Slam and we lost ouropportunity to have two Grand
Slam winners in one year, nowit's back because if Scottie
wins at Oakmont and Port Rush,he will complete the Slam, so
there is still a chance ofhaving two slam winners in one
year that'd be sick, which wouldbe, I mean to be around when
(09:31):
that happens.
It's a historical moment sorooting for him I I really think
he's the front runner foroakmont.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
Clearly I mean yeah, with how straight he hit the
ball I saw some edits today oninstagram where it was like like
some hard ass was it real?
Speaker 1 (09:48):
was it real?
Joe, was it real?
Yeah, it was real.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
Ass trap music real and he was like they were like
it was like a song right, andthey're they're showing him like
playing and then they show himin cuffs and it's like you know
I'm from the trenches, kind ofvibe dude.
That shit was sick, but uh, Ididn't I didn't watch a ton.
I didn't watch a ton.
I thought it was kind of boring.
But sunday provided some drama,thankfully, I think, especially
(10:18):
with rom dude.
Rom is such a hothead and likesomebody, put some ayahuasca in
his like he probably took anayahuasca trip recently because
he was so like chill, you knowwhat I mean.
Yeah, he wasn't hot at all, andthat's what we expect from him
I'm sure he was hot on theinside oh, yeah, he was because,
(10:40):
no, I don't think so.
I think he, I think it wasgenuine, I do think it was
genuine after the round he had,he had told reporters that he
was embarrassed.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
Yeah, so I don't.
I don't know if that's in arage or not, but he was
definitely going through it Ilike how earlier in the week, um
they uh were showing uh tyrellhatton on the first round.
They're like.
The announcers even said thatthey're not going to keep any
microphones around too becausehe's liable dude.
Speaker 1 (11:14):
He was.
He was cussing out his driver.
Speaker 3 (11:16):
That was hilarious I love that dude that's speaking
of drivers.
That's what people want it'scrazy.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
That's what people want, dude people want to see
that like I know I love it allthe mics, put all the mics on to
route, you know yeah, they.
Speaker 1 (11:31):
Uh.
I think everybody wants it, butthey're so scared of it they're
so scared of it yeah, justbecause you know, with jt and
his spaghet camp comment, andyou know then, yeah, the tampon
gate with tiger and justinthere's just, yeah, they're so
scared of just upsetting thepublic figures, bro, like people
(11:54):
are gonna.
People are gonna see that shit,you know I know, I know, even if
it happens, somebody in thecrowd's gonna have a video of it
yep, I think, uh, thrill havinghis emotions and wearing it out
.
There it's.
There's not one person I knowthat has golf that has not hit a
shot, where they've wanted todo the exact same thing or have
(12:14):
done the exact same thing youknow it's it's a hard, hard game
, and sometimes the emotions getthe best of you I loved the
shane lowry moment.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
That was my favorite.
Yeah, yeah, that was so good,yeah that was pretty cool and
especially the clip from scratchwith uh dan rapaport and he
hits it and then he goes lovethat.
I know I sent it to you and itwas timed so perfectly Like that
was so good.
I mean embed it.
That was an embedded ball inthe fairway, no doubt about it.
Speaker 3 (12:52):
Well, what's it?
Speaker 1 (12:53):
was that there was some doubt about it but that
wasn't his mark.
Speaker 3 (12:56):
I think there was, it was.
I know but, there was Mark butand he rolled into it.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
Right, so it was it.
And he rolled into it.
Right, so it was a pre-embeddedball.
That's the thing.
Speaker 1 (13:09):
That's where the rules.
It was a pre-existing divot.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
Yeah, it was that, that's how he got fucked.
Exactly that was embedded.
What are the odds of that shitthough?
Right, that's crazy.
That's got to be a million toone.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
I'm surprised it doesn't happen more often, with
as consistent as these guys are,of hitting the ball where they
hit it.
I mean, you see all the divotsin one area of certain holes all
the time and it's amazing thatballs don't find them more often
.
Speaker 2 (13:37):
But yeah, you watch the show and it's like, oh, it's
going to end up in a divot andit never does.
Speaker 1 (13:42):
Never does.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
It's very rare that it does.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
Very rare yeah luckily irish, I guess.
For him.
Yeah right, yeah, uh.
So scotty, of course, pads hisstats as the top player in the
world.
His owgr continues to rise.
Uh, xander shoffley made thecut, so his streak got extended.
His cut streak he's still amillion years away from Tiger,
(14:12):
but it's still an active streak,so it's going.
Scottie's continuous weeks atnumber one is still growing.
I want to give some love toHarry Harry Hall.
He was in the tournament andfinished T19.
So congrats to him.
A nice little $193,000 paycheck, so that's nice.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
He is now 65th on the money list on the PGA Tour.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
He's brought in $1.4 million this year Good job.
Harry, good boy, harold, yeahyeah, he's been on a good run
and I thought his OWGR was gonnabe lower.
It's at 92 right now.
He was previously at 82.
Was his all his best?
He's at 92 right now, um, butuh, he's had.
You know, he's beenconsistently in the top 30 last
(14:59):
four or five tournaments.
So congrats to him on his goodplay.
Yeah and uh, I have to find outif that automatically gets him
in the open or or not, I'mpretty sure it does top 20 in a
major.
I'm sure there's some uhaccolades for that jeremy, if
you're still listening, find out.
I didn't have time to look intothat pack those doggy bags you
(15:25):
know, last week we talked a lotabout Quail Hollow, seeing it so
much and the course you knowit's in the regular rotation and
now they're playing a major atit again a big event.
Joe, you said you didn't watchmuch, but from what you did
watch, were you okay with thecourse or are you still done
with it?
(15:45):
You okay with the course?
Speaker 2 (15:45):
or do you?
Are you still?
I mean, yeah, the course is,the course is sick.
I mean, I have no issues withthe course, it's just um.
Someone during the vgntournament we played this
weekend stopped me and was likeI completely agree with you.
I'm not gonna say any names,but why not?
He was.
I mean I'll tell you guys after.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
Yeah, I'm gonna tell you guys after.
Uh, nobody listening probablyknows mean.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
I'll tell you guys after I'm gonna, yeah, yeah, I'm
gonna tell you guys after uh.
Nobody listening probably knows, but I'll tell you guys after.
Uh, he is a true links wherefan, now, shout out true links
where because, uh, he used, uhhe, he jumped on that bandwagon
through our recommendations.
But anyway, uh, his name is DanDan Hodges.
(16:24):
No, I'm kidding, his first nameis Dan, though it was me, so
you probably know who it is.
But no, I just think the courselooks sick.
Dude, I have no issues with thecourse.
The only issue I have is whenthere is a major somewhere that
hosts a regular tour stop.
That's all it is.
Speaker 1 (16:43):
Okay, I know that and that's what I'm talking about
though um, I mean you.
You beat that to a, I'll beatit again last week um but I
would say so.
With that mentally in yourbrain, were you able to watch
the tournament and enjoy it, orwere you just hell bentbent on?
Speaker 2 (17:07):
this shouldn't be taking place here right now.
Yeah, I didn't really enjoy itvery much.
I enjoyed it when Rom was onthe chase.
I watched Sunday, I watchedmost of Sunday when we got home,
but there was no drama, andthat's why.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
And you think that's because of the course.
Speaker 2 (17:31):
No, no, not at all.
It wasn't because of the course.
No, I think that's what's sogreat about Augusta National.
Yeah, we go there every year,but it provides drama.
Majors need drama.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
Oh, we're going, and see some drama at oakmont hell
yeah, I'm down.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
Like I typically do not care who wins unless I have
a bet on them, um, but if Idon't have a bet on anybody in
the in the hunt, then I wantdrama.
And when rama was making hischase I was like, hell yeah,
let's go.
And then he fell apart and thenit was like, oh well, scottie
(18:10):
got it again.
I have nothing against ScottieScheffler at all.
Like we called him out yearsago, he's going to be a great
player.
But I just think majors deservethat drama and unfortunately,
this year did not provide thatit could have.
(18:31):
Maybe it would have made it abetter, maybe it would have
changed my outlook on things,but no, I, I still stand by.
I will beat this into theground.
Don't play majors at tour stopsand choose courses that provide
drama.
Speaker 1 (18:49):
I'm going to Robbie had a good point.
Tournament was exciting for 20minutes on the back nine Sunday
and then died with an hour leftexactly exactly, put that on a
shirt and sell it hey, onceagain I'm going to send this
invite to Greenlee.
(19:09):
He wants us to have him on in acouple weeks.
But the next couple weeks?
But how about right now?
There, greenlee, I just sentyou a link.
Hop on, I don't know who?
Speaker 3 (19:20):
I don't know who it was, but there was a video I saw
and I'm not sure if it was oninstagram or wherever the fuck
it was, but they talked aboutreformatting the pga
championship and matt your, yourdecision about bringing back
the match play was in it, joe,did you see it?
When they talk about they'redoing the first two rounds of
(19:40):
metal play, I sent that to youguys, I think was it you?
Was it you, joe?
yeah yeah, anyway, yeah, andthen they took the top 32 and
then they did a match play untilthe final four.
Speaker 2 (19:52):
I think that would be sick 36 holes in one day?
Speaker 3 (19:56):
That would be awesome .
I mean, I think it turns out tobe like 90 holes or something
like that played.
Speaker 1 (20:02):
Yeah, it's a lot.
Speaker 2 (20:03):
We've played 85 in one day.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
That would be an absolute grueling test.
Yeah, and I think it would beawesome and it would be an
absolute grueling test of golfand I think it would be awesome
and it would be cool to see,like, even if that were to
happen, to even see like theClub Pro guy, like Michael Block
, or something like that, grindit out.
Yeah, grinding it out againstScotty, or, you know, like Kyle
(20:31):
Mendoza against Rory.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
Yeah, I mean, make those guysty or, you know, like
kyle mendoza against rory.
You know something like thatworld.
You know it could belife-changing.
Yeah, that's what I think itwould be so sick is like.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
Pgh championship is like a gruel, it's like a duel,
it's like a grind to the finish,like and that's all I've said
is like they missing theiridentity, but like that would be
so dope if they did that andthat became their identity.
And Rob says, uh, PGAchampionship next year is at
Aronamic Great Can't wait to see.
(21:03):
Aronamic.
It's not played.
It's not played on tour stops,right, that's what we need,
that's yeah.
Speaker 3 (21:12):
We need more, more need more, more exactly I agree,
more, more.
The top 100 great thesebeautiful showcase golf courses
there's so many get them intothe majors, bring them in.
I mean fuck.
I mean, how good was I?
I can't wait for them to goback to the us open.
I got to see that shit live.
Yeah, in 2012 I walked thosegrounds and that course was.
I mean, joe, I know you're anarchitect geek and you would
(21:34):
have absolutely loved seeingsome of that shit out there and
we haven't seen it since, sohopefully, hopefully, they.
You know this trend of what yearwas greatness?
Speaker 1 (21:45):
2012, I believe man, you're just 13, 13 red baskets.
Oh, oh shit.
Speaker 2 (21:50):

Alright, the floor is yours.

We we amplified that, expeditedit got you here now.

So I can answer the questionproperly you, you said please

I figured you had something thatyou wanted to get off your
chest no, it's not nothing toget off my chest.
Speaker 4 (23:08):
I love my boy, joe, but he gets on these fucking
tangents yes.
Speaker 2 (23:17):
What tangent did I have?
Speaker 4 (23:19):
What's this about?
What's this tournament about?
Dude, I love you, but dude, Ican say it through the phone I'm
like dude.
How much drinking weed andalcohol have you had?
Speaker 2 (23:33):
I don't drink weed I don't drink weed you know what I

I don't smoke alcohol either.
Don't drink weed, don't smokealcohol.
What did I say that isaggravating you?
Speaker 4 (23:49):
So nothing aggravates me.
People have tried to push thebutton.
You can't push the button, sofor starters Dan, congrats on
your win.
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
Oh, we haven't gotten there yet, but okay, oh, my bad
.
No, that's good.
Speaker 4 (24:03):
If people are on the internet, they know.
Speaker 3 (24:04):
Oh they know Good job .
I appreciate that, thank you.
Speaker 4 (24:09):
So back to a year ago to calm down.
The PGA tournament is fair inmy opinion.
Fair.
Us Open greens to an extentfair.
You have rough for majorsbecause we all love the Masters,
(24:31):
but there's no rough.
Let's just call it what it is.
There's not correct?
Um, we cannot.
I don't know how you saythere's a word for it.
I don't know what the word isright now, but you cannot
recreate, uh, open conditions.
But if you can make thefairways fast and firm and kind
(24:54):
of play the golf ball on theground, then to an extent it's
kind of the open, but it's not.
I know it's not rainingsideways and blowing 30 and it's
40 outside.
I get that.
But the pj championship, in myopinion, is all-encompassing of
(25:14):
all of those elements, to theextent they can predict them and
they just do the best they canwith what they have to.
Now, as far as, being on atournament course, if you will.
The fact that you can make atournament course, that
versatile, the fact that you canmake those whatever the courses
(25:35):
are, well, yeah, I get that Isee that yeah 100 you can.
I understand seeing differentcourses.
I understanding making golfmore accessible than seeing
places we've never seen.
Buddy, I get it, we're on thesame page, but unfortunately
that's not how golf works.
So how about we take thosecourses that we've already seen
(26:00):
that can be put in a tournamentshape and do the best they can
with what they have right?
So you're not going to see amajor at trinity forest here in
dallas?
Speaker 2 (26:11):
okay, so here's my thing with that.
Here's my thing with that here.
Why don't?
Speaker 4 (26:16):
why, don't.
That's right brother andfreaking matt won't even stop
laughing because he knows what's, but I'm listening okay, if, if
, if that was their identity,why wouldn't they do it at a pga
tour?
stop every year and show thedifferences of how far you can
grow the ref no I think you canmake it yeah, you know what I
mean here's here's the catch andthis is somebody who's worked
(26:41):
on the other side of it and I'mnot saying I know I'm not saying
please legend legend he's alegend.
I wish I was there because Iwould punch you in the nuts.
I know you would, brother.
So I'm not saying I know allthe back end stuff because I
don't, but not every tournamentcourse can host a major.
(27:02):
Let's just be real about it.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
It's not a.
Thing.
Speaker 4 (27:06):
So the fact that I'm going to literally agree with
you and disagree with you withwhat I'm going to literally like
agree with you and disagreewith you what with what I'm
about to say.
So there's a reason.
The player is played at theplayers right yeah I'm sorry at
tbz sawgrass it was built for it, correct, and we can argue all
(27:28):
day long.
But it should be a major.
But quail hollow can hold agolf tournament, if you will,
normal and a major.
I was a member at craig ranchfor five years, four, whatever.
Five years we'll we'll go inthe middle.
This is gonna sound stupid topeople because they see the
(27:49):
scores that they shoot out there.
You can hold a major at craigranch, but the catches and
matt's like hot take so.
But now I can see the face.
Dude, I know you.
If you narrow the fairways andyou grow the rough, it can be
done right.
It just it depends on the golfcourse.
(28:10):
It's, it's all a see.
Shout out the agronomist.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
Shout out the agronomists, shout out the
agronomists, greenskeepers,shout out all those guys.
Speaker 4 (28:17):
Right, but there's a reason they blew it up.
Now the catch is, the Nelsonwas played the week before the
PGA Championship.
So do you want to get kicked inthe nuts two weeks in a row?
No, it's not fun.
So how about we give a golfcourse to players, make some
birdies, make some low scores,build some confidence?
(28:40):
Then we go to the PGA Right.
So the, the Nelson and Dallasshouldn't be played the first
week in May, shouldn't?
It's going to rain here.
You might get a tornado, likeyou don't know, what's gonna
happen, right like it's very,very easy to leave, live here
and be like, oh it's raining, ohthere's a nelson, oh it's
(29:01):
raining.
All the colonials here, it justit's, it's what it is, man,
right.
So not saying they should movethem, like I was trying to run
the tour.
I was trying to do that stuff,but being a part of it, for eric
monahan over here, eric monahan18.
So golf 25 years.
I've been on the other side ofit for 18 of the 25 years.
(29:26):
There's so much money andpolitics involved like yeah
living here not wanting to livehere, not wanting to be here.
I would love to see atournament every week at Shadow
Creek, but the fact of thatspace between those tee boxes
(29:48):
and all that stuff like itbaffles me that they walk that
golf course.
When they play the match and allthat nonsense.
I'm like well, that's whythere's so many commercial
breaks.
Have you played there?
They're like no.
Yeah, you have no idea how farspread out that is?
Speaker 1 (30:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (30:04):
And that's the stuff I wish people knew.
Speaker 2 (30:06):
Yeah, you're right.
Speaker 4 (30:07):
Like they like the CJ Cup I.
To my my knowledge, they signedan eight-year deal, so last
year on tv that golf courselooked like I put it together
with legos, you could see thedrainage.
You can see all this nonsenselet's be fair about what it is
right, yeah that's why they blewit up so now they're gonna play
(30:29):
the event cool, we're blowingit up monday like what remember?
so you have to abide by certainthings and it just it.
How do I say this?
Actually, it doesn't matter.
Like freaking, come beat me up,who cares?
Speaker 2 (30:45):
like no, no, I totally get what you're saying.
Speaker 4 (30:48):
If tbc sawgrass can be in, shape for the tournament,
so can craig ranch so can theother tour stops, so all that
stuff.
Yeah, and so we're.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
You're held to a standard, so make the standard
like you have a bajillionfucking figure it out, right it
was when I was talking withbrian herbert from las vegas
golf insider about the rough atlas vegas country club, the live
event, because I've played outthere where the rough is thick.
(31:17):
And I was like it's a tightcourse, it's not a difficult
course, it's fairly flat, it'sright in front of you.
The greens are tricky but Isaid they're going to grow that
rough and make it a penalty shotto hit out of it.
And we get out there and it wasthis high and I was like what
the fuck?
And he goes.
(31:38):
It don't grow in the winteryeah, you know and he goes, they
can't grow it they.
They could water it every dayfor a month and you know,
non-stop.
It's not going to grow becauseit's too cold.
And I was like, okay, thatmakes sense.
Speaker 4 (31:52):
So I mean, I can see why they didn't come back no, to
your point, like a live eventhere in dallas, at meridot, so
that's where a lot of the tourplayers play and whatever.
Well, that's stupid, like Ican't believe they do that.
And they only shot, you know,for three days they only shot
(32:12):
five, six under.
People have no idea how hardthat golf course is.
So like, originally it wascalled colombian club and then
it went from colombian club tohonors club and there was a
gentleman here who wanted tojoin a club and they told him he
had to wait, and he told him totrick and suck a bag of dicks
(32:35):
and he bought honors club, whichhe turned into merido and when
the wind which you guys knowthis, being there and being here
, the wind is going to blow,it's just what it is.
Yeah, so then, like well, undertoday, like that was amazing,
and people are like, well,that's stupid, you have no idea
(32:56):
how hard that golf course is.
Speaker 2 (32:59):
I mean, that's a whole other thing, bro, no no,
no, they need to shoot under parin the score Like it doesn't
matter.
Speaker 4 (33:07):
I need you to stay on topic with us All, right All
right, I'm going to go to thebathroom.
I love on topic with us.
All right.
All right, I'm gonna go to thebathroom.
I love you too, but it's justwhen you get on those things and
like when they played bowlingbrook and outside of chicago my
cousin lives 20 minutes fromthere I've played the golf
course.
Well, you can't play that.
(33:28):
It's only 80 bucks.
The golf course is unbelievable, right.
So you get these craig ranchesand you get these stuff before
majors dude it.
Just they're so hard, man, likethey're so so hard robbie's got
some comments unless you'regoing to p joe no, I was kidding
(33:51):
because you were.
Speaker 2 (33:52):
You were on a tangent , so I'm a product oh whoa, all
right.
Speaker 1 (33:58):
So robbie says I'm giving the pga lineup a chance.
Frisco aeronomic, justdifferent types of courses.
Yes, yes, I.
And then, uh, in regards tolive, they came to vegas super
bowl weekend, gave out ticketsto all the club promoters and
called it let's see when thefootball college championships
and final four are here.
So I'm.
Speaker 2 (34:15):
Let me ask eric this what is, what is the identity of
the pga championship?
Is it because all the only proscan play?
No, is it?
It's to show that golf coursescan go into a into major shape
because of the agronomy team?
That's what I heard.
I don't know anything aboutgrowing grass, yeah, so that's
(34:39):
what I'm curious about.
I know, I know you don't.
Speaker 1 (34:46):
Joe's dead set on.
Majors have to have an identity.
Speaker 4 (34:51):
I remember.
So my answer to that is I, inmy opinion, and then being
around it, the PGA championshipgrows rough, like certain events
.
It has greens that are US OpenFest ish, but fair to an extent
(35:16):
because it's not burnout.
It's not concrete.
I think it Ish, but fair to anextent because it's not burnout.
It's not concrete.
I think it encompasseseverything.
You need distance, you needyardage, you need accuracy, you
need to hit greens, you needspots, you need to be able to
hit out of rough, because you'regoing to hit every fairway.
You have to be able to do allthat stuff to hit out of rough,
(35:38):
because you're going to hitevery fairway.
You have to be able to do allthat stuff, because I will argue
that if you hit the rough inthe US Open, you hit the green.
It's not going to stop, it'sgoing to roll off the back.
I think in a PGA Championship,again, in my opinion, if you hit
the right spot, it's going tosomewhat stop, remotely close to
where you want to be, which aUS Open will not do that.
(35:59):
So what you're saying is it'san easier US Open.
Speaker 2 (36:04):
It's an easier US Open.
That's the identity of a PG.
I disagree.
Speaker 4 (36:10):
I think the Greens might be.
That's what you said.
I did not say that You'reputting words in my mouth.
Come on, Joe.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
Don't put words in Eric's mouth.
Speaker 4 (36:18):
Come on, dude.
Speaker 2 (36:19):
It's what you described.
Sorry, you didn't say that.
Speaker 3 (36:24):
Do you think it's more of like a and you shouldn't
really say this for a majortournament, but do you think
it's more of a prep to get readyfor what the US Open is going
to be?
Because literally everythingyou said that you have to do in
a PGA championship you have todo in a U S open too, but,
granted the conditions aremagnified times 10.
Speaker 4 (36:46):
Yes, I think you can prepare for a U S open and if
you hit a good shot and do agreen, you still get poked in
the booty hole in a pgachampionship again.
My opinion you can hit a decentshot in the green and still end
up with maybe at least you'reon the green, if that makes
(37:09):
sense, like at least you're havea putt for it, not saying
you're gonna make the putt, notsaying you're not gonna three
putt or we've watched peoplewatch.
I'm sorry we've make the putt,not saying you're not going to
three putt or we've watchedpeople watch.
I'm sorry we've watched peopleputt.
How do you say that Putts off agreen?
Of course, but at least you'reon the green, which at US Open
(37:29):
you will not be.
Speaker 3 (37:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (37:32):
And you chip it on the green and then you're off
the green again and you like, Idon't mind hard golf, I don't
want to watch.
Not saying he would do it, butI don't want to watch scotty
scheffler hit the green, it rolloff the back him, chip it on
the green, lip it out for thechip, go off the green and just
(37:54):
keep going back and forth likeit's not fun to me.
The best golfers in the world Idon't want to see them be
embarrassed Now you get a badshot in the water or whatever
things happen.
Speaker 3 (38:08):
Correct.
Speaker 4 (38:12):
I think that's fair From your perspective.
Do you find?
Speaker 1 (38:15):
the.
Speaker 3 (38:16):
PGA Championship more enjoyable to watch than the US
Open.
Speaker 1 (38:17):
So, from your perspective, do you find the PGA
Championship more enjoyable towatch than the US Open?
Speaker 4 (38:25):
my side.
Yes, I watch the.
I love watching the Open, thePGA.
I don't mind the US Open.
I don't like people beingembarrassed.
Speaker 2 (38:41):
Like I grew up in chicago watching michael jordan,
I don't want to see michaeljordan playing against us for,
like I don't want to see peopleget embarrassed like it's not
fun to me yeah yeah, that'sinteresting, though, like the
different perspectives, becauseyou have seen the other side,
you know what I mean, and it'slike I don't want to see people
get embarrassed.
Speaker 1 (39:02):
But, like you know, he just wants it mic'd up I, I
would love it mic'd up 100percent.
Speaker 2 (39:10):
Um, I do agree with your statement about it being
fair for the best golf courses.
Uh, best golfers in the world,yeah, um, I just I would love to
see them highlight some of theother.
Like dude, how sick would midpines be?
Never, championship, yeah, Imean, they probably can't host
(39:31):
it.
But like I just I want, I wantit never would happen.
They just I want our pineneedles Never.
Pine needles is not a touristspot.
Lpga tour.
Speaker 3 (39:42):
Play the U S open, yeah.
Speaker 2 (39:46):
Like, how sick would pine needles be?
For?
I just want them to highlightsome of the great call golf
courses that are around thiscountry that you have the
opportunity to play or networkto be able to play.
That's all I want.
I want them to create anidentity of being a little bit
different than the US Open andthen to your point, they are PGA
(40:14):
pros playing in it who arecoming from these other golf
courses.
Speaker 4 (40:18):
So why, if their golf course I don't know how you
measure it, but if it qualifies,then they should be on it.
I don't see anything wrong withthat.
I agree with that see.
Speaker 2 (40:29):
So the us open gives a chance for anybody in the
country to grind their waythrough an extensive qualifier.
That's a person at a golfcourse, I know, but exactly why
does the PGA Championship playthe same golf courses
(40:51):
occasionally, occasionally, notall the time I can give you the
answer, but literally you'regoing to get banned.
Speaker 4 (40:59):
If I give you the answer on, literally you're
gonna get banned.
If I give you the answer.
Speaker 2 (41:01):
I don't need to hear the answer, but I just, I just
want them.
I'll text it to you guys.
Yeah, I just, I just want.
I just want them.
I just want them to sit like Ilike the pga championship.
My only grief with them is Idon't need to see something I've
seen before.
I want them to play something Ihaven't seen.
And that's politics, and that'sall that, and I get that.
Speaker 4 (41:24):
But I don't think there's anything wrong with what
you're saying Like, yeah,that's all it is.
It's the same principle butdifferent meaning.
I'm going to go see JosephBramlett at colonial Thursday.
If my friends aren't playing, Idon't care, I don't want to go,
I don't want to see it.
I don't want to go to a golftournament.
(41:46):
I legit could give a damn Ifone of you three are in it.
I'm in.
I want to go see you.
Better be there, I'm going togo heckle you there.

So, um, let's do, do, do, boom,oh, no, we'll just leave that
(44:05):
like that, all right, uh, so, um, we had somebody leave a
question before the show evenstarted.
Uh, it was from uh, shannon, uh, 13 brewing.
Uh, hey guys, couple questions.
Do each of you have a favoriteclub you swing?
Do each of you have a favoriteclub you swing?
Do each of you have a favoriteball to hit?
Thanks, looking forward tohearing it tomorrow.
So I'll leave that up there, uh, and we can and we'll, we'll go
(44:29):
around, we'll go, you know,around, robin here.
Uh, dan, what, what would uh,what would your answers be to
that?
Speaker 3 (44:39):
I don't have a favorite club.
I have two favorite clubs,actually three favorite clubs
Right now.
Well, of course, the driver,because everybody likes it and
bombs.
I love my new putter, soputting is my second favorite
thing right now.
Putting is my second favoritething right now and my third
(45:04):
favorite club right now is myfive wood, my apex uw I
absolutely love that club murderI smash that fucking club
murder.
It's so easy to hit and I hit itstraight.
So, yeah, those are.
Those are my three.
And then favorite golf ball uh,for the longest for the last 25
years it's been a Pro V1 model,whether it's bouncing back and
(45:25):
forth between the 1 and the 1X,but currently, right now,
experimenting with the CallawayTriple Diamond and really liking
that one.
So right now I think theCallaway Triple Diamond is going
to go in the bag for a while.
Speaker 1 (45:42):
Very good golf ball.
Speaker 3 (45:44):
Very good golf ball.
Speaker 1 (45:46):
Very good, joe, what you got.
Speaker 2 (45:49):
I'm second because you're going to go on a tangent.
Nope, nope, nope.
Speaker 1 (45:53):
I just can't wait to hear you go 64 degree wide open,
five feet from the front of thegreen to a front pin.
I'm full swing in that bitch.
60 feet in the air.
Speaker 2 (46:03):
Favorite clubs a one iron, I have one in the bag lion
, uh, no, obviously my favoritegolf club in the bag is a lob
wedge 60 degree, no 58s, no 62s,60 degree lob wedge, 60 all day
.
Uh, that is my favorite.
(46:24):
Love my five wood.
Uh, turned down like a four.
Still don't love the shaft inthat thing, um, but we'll dial
it in one day.
Love the driver.
Love hitting bombs, of course,um.
Favorite ball I used to lovethe pro v1, but, uh, I love the
pro v1x.
(46:45):
Yellow only, uh, only yellowgolf balls.
For me, yellow pro v1x is whatI prefer to play.
But I also love, love, love thelove.
The Wilson Staff model, not theX, but just the regular Staff
model, the current version.
Love that ball.
(47:05):
I prefer to only play thePro-V1X or the Wilson Staff
model.
And what else is?
Speaker 1 (47:15):
that, that's it.
Speaker 2 (47:16):
Yeah, that's it.
I'm super picky with everything, so I won't rock a bag with a
big logo from an OEM Callaway orTitleist or TaylorMade thing on
my thing because I like to.
Speaker 1 (47:34):
Where's that question at?
Speaker 2 (47:38):
I don't see that question.
Speaker 1 (47:40):
No, I'm just saying it.
Speaker 2 (47:46):
Oh okay, all right, no, I'm just, I'm just saying it
.
Oh okay, all right, I'm just me, that's, that's joe, going on a
tangent, yeah, tangent.
I don't, I don't rock oem uhbags because, uh, if I don't
have your club in the bag, Iwould feel like a loser.
I don't, I don't like malletcovers I, I rock a blade.
Shot off strokes game.
Shout out goodwood, shout outolsen.
Um, yeah, I am me and I'm proudof it and, most importantly,
(48:09):
use what you want to use andwhat works for you.
Most importantly, angry laterimportantly, hang grease later.
Speaker 1 (48:32):
Yeah, oh okay.
I don't really have a favoriteclub, um I I love chipping with
my 54, so if, if anything, I'dhave to go with that.
I don't hit bombs, so Driver'snot like it's just a club for me
because I don't hit bombs andmy go-to.
(48:52):
I've been trying the CallawayChrome Tour for a couple weeks
now, just not happy with it offthe tee like I have been every
other time.
So the last two rounds I'veplayed I went back to the Wilson
Staff model Just a damn goodgolf ball.
It's so underrated, absolutelyso underrated.
(49:13):
We were talking at Summit withSteve, the head pro out there
and we were talking golf ballsand he wasn't.
It was when the triple diamondball just came out and we were
telling him about it and he saidMatt, what ball do you play?
And I said I play the WilsonStaff model.
He goes, oh, you're the one.
So yeah, it doesn't get a lotof press but it's a really,
(49:36):
really good golf ball.
Speaker 2 (49:38):
It really is a great golf ball.
Dan played it for a little bit,jeremy's probably played it
right.
Speaker 1 (49:44):
Jeremy's been playing it.
Speaker 2 (49:47):
Yeah, it's really good, really good, Hide that
here.
Speaker 1 (49:51):
I'll show you my bombs Ready.
Speaker 2 (49:54):
I didn't get any of these videos.
What the hell's going on overhere?
Oh yeah.
Speaker 3 (50:00):
Rich Bomb, bomb 3-40.
Speaker 1 (50:08):
Then we had this one Boom.
Speaker 3 (50:11):
Yeah, shot Rich 3-36.
Great shot.
Speaker 2 (50:17):
I got a video from Rocky of me missing a putt and
you got you hitting the fairway.
Speaker 1 (50:22):
Yeah, well, you know.
Speaker 2 (50:26):
Hey, shout out to the Golf Fathers, go follow them on
YouTube.

They're doing great things, man, they really are.
I was talking with StevenJackson last night and I was
telling him I said you know itwas hilarious.
I played with Rocky out atCascada.
Jeremy and I played with himand Gino at Cascada one day, but
I've never been in the car withhim and he had Pete shout out.
(50:57):
Pete, awesome guy.
He had him out there doing thevideo.
He recorded the whole tournament, all the strokes that Rocky
took, and it was hilariousbecause I hear him talking.
He was talking so much and youknow, I don't care, it doesn't
bother me whatsoever but it waslike if I was thinking out loud,
(51:18):
that's what I would be doing.
Yeah, and so it was.
It was totally like rocky'sinner thoughts being expressed,
and it was.
It was.
Speaker 2 (51:28):
it was fun to watch, it was fun to be around he was
talking to the people, peoplewatching, you know yeah, I know,
I know, but it's, it's.
Speaker 1 (51:38):
It's a different way of seeing somebody golf, because
the the communication that hewas doing to the camera, that
shit that we all do every singleday, but it's in our head, you
know, and he he puts it outthere, so it's it's.
Uh, it's, it's fun to watch theshow.
It was fun to watch the behindthe scenes and, uh, yeah, they,
(51:58):
they recorded the two fairways Ihit that day.
Speaker 2 (52:01):
So yeah and it's uh, it's, it's fun.
I mean, obviously, like yousaid, to watch the behind the
scenes, but like dude rocky'ssuch a good dude and pete was
awesome, um, and it it was areally.
And when they started they saidwe don't want to be in your way
and they never were and it wasjust like just fun to be, there.
