WEBVTT - The Fire Pit w/ Matt Ginella: The Wishbone Brawl is Back, Bigger and Better Than Ever

0:00:04.360 --> 0:00:06.600
<v Speaker 1>Are you guys practicing with Simmons and how does that?

0:00:06.640 --> 0:00:07.280
<v Speaker 1>How's that going?

0:00:07.760 --> 0:00:10.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, we've been practicing them ever since. The day we

0:00:10.640 --> 0:00:13.800
<v Speaker 2>flew back from our last tournament. Our dad drove up

0:00:13.840 --> 0:00:17.439
<v Speaker 2>and John Ashworth dropped off some Lynxoul for Simmons to us,

0:00:17.600 --> 0:00:21.160
<v Speaker 2>which are super nice. Yeah, and we've just been practicing

0:00:21.160 --> 0:00:25.720
<v Speaker 2>with them ever since. It's so hard, but I think

0:00:25.760 --> 0:00:27.880
<v Speaker 2>I'm getting the hang of it a little bit and

0:00:28.200 --> 0:00:31.200
<v Speaker 2>I'm just gonna try to not be nervous and let

0:00:31.200 --> 0:00:37.200
<v Speaker 2>that affect me. Yeah, we have Lynksoul drivers and then

0:00:37.400 --> 0:00:41.320
<v Speaker 2>I think we were trying out Ben Hogan like three wood,

0:00:41.440 --> 0:00:45.159
<v Speaker 2>five wood, four wood, which we're hitting pretty good. So

0:00:45.720 --> 0:00:49.320
<v Speaker 2>as long as I can overcome nerves, I think I

0:00:49.320 --> 0:00:50.280
<v Speaker 2>think it'll be all right.

0:00:55.280 --> 0:00:58.640
<v Speaker 3>Put another log on the fire.

0:01:01.000 --> 0:01:09.240
<v Speaker 1>Nobody here is given time. Welcome to the fire pit

0:01:09.520 --> 0:01:13.480

0:02:45.440 --> 0:02:48.480

0:02:48.840 --> 0:02:52.320
<v Speaker 1>He starts every day off at the goat well before sunrise,

0:02:52.520 --> 0:02:55.120
<v Speaker 1>prepping the fire pit and parking carts, making sure the

0:02:55.120 --> 0:02:58.679
<v Speaker 1>place is presentable to the masses. He also serves as

0:02:58.680 --> 0:03:02.960
<v Speaker 1>the rules official and referee on Saturday. I bumped into

0:03:03.040 --> 0:03:05.280
<v Speaker 1>him on Wednesday morning as he was raking up leaves

0:03:05.320 --> 0:03:08.400
<v Speaker 1>on the left side of the eighteenth fairway. What do

0:03:08.400 --> 0:03:10.480
<v Speaker 1>you think about the Wishbone braw this year? I'm so

0:03:10.560 --> 0:03:12.320
<v Speaker 1>excited always.

0:03:12.639 --> 0:03:15.160
<v Speaker 4>Why do you think I'm out here getting the.

0:03:14.760 --> 0:03:18.080
<v Speaker 1>Tinsel out of the way. I love it. Yeah.

0:03:18.120 --> 0:03:21.440
<v Speaker 4>I mean to have all these incredible golfers come here

0:03:21.760 --> 0:03:24.520
<v Speaker 4>to our little golf course is amazing.

0:03:24.680 --> 0:03:28.960
<v Speaker 1>You very kind and you will, all of you. How

0:03:28.960 --> 0:03:32.679
<v Speaker 1>about the Layovow twins with the lead twins, Well.

0:03:32.440 --> 0:03:34.400
<v Speaker 4>They're going to be number one and two in the world,

0:03:34.480 --> 0:03:37.280
<v Speaker 4>so that's gonna be something to watch. Who's gonna be

0:03:37.320 --> 0:03:40.280
<v Speaker 4>We won't even know who's one h two. Yeah, that's

0:03:40.280 --> 0:03:42.640
<v Speaker 4>gonna be something. I think they could win. I'm putting

0:03:42.640 --> 0:03:44.400
<v Speaker 4>my money on they can win the whole damn thing.

0:03:45.280 --> 0:03:48.760
<v Speaker 1>Jasmine and janey Laoval combined for the opening audio clip

0:03:48.800 --> 0:03:51.280
<v Speaker 1>on practicing with per Simmons, and we'll get to more

0:03:51.320 --> 0:03:54.120
<v Speaker 1>with them in a bit, but for now, here's John Ashworth,

0:03:54.600 --> 0:03:58.120
<v Speaker 1>the self proclaimed caretaker of Goat Hill Park. He took

0:03:58.200 --> 0:04:01.720
<v Speaker 1>over the lease of the municipality in twenty fourteen. It

0:04:01.720 --> 0:04:06.720
<v Speaker 1>has gotten better every day since. Ashworth has literally saved

0:04:06.800 --> 0:04:12.760
<v Speaker 1>an underachieving community asset and much needed green space. Simply put,

0:04:13.000 --> 0:04:17.240
<v Speaker 1>the fashion icon is the Goat of the Goat, the

0:04:17.279 --> 0:04:21.880
<v Speaker 1>Wishbone Brawl and kind of this evolution of this event.

0:04:22.040 --> 0:04:24.520
<v Speaker 1>What's it mean to you now? Going into six years?

0:04:26.839 --> 0:04:29.400
<v Speaker 5>Wow, I mean I can't believe it's six years. Really.

0:04:29.560 --> 0:04:32.719
<v Speaker 5>I mean, it's just it's kind of flown by, and

0:04:32.800 --> 0:04:35.080
<v Speaker 5>you know, every year we just do it by the

0:04:35.120 --> 0:04:37.800
<v Speaker 5>seat of our pants, you know what I mean, We

0:04:37.880 --> 0:04:39.480
<v Speaker 5>kind of forget we're gonna do it, and then all

0:04:39.480 --> 0:04:43.440
<v Speaker 5>of a sudden we're going, you know, oh god, we

0:04:43.560 --> 0:04:47.479
<v Speaker 5>get the Wishbone Brawl coming up. But you know because

0:04:47.480 --> 0:04:53.520
<v Speaker 5>the first year, literally it was my birthday on the

0:04:53.640 --> 0:04:57.920
<v Speaker 5>driving range at goat Hill Park when Dean Wilson said, hey,

0:04:58.520 --> 0:05:01.159
<v Speaker 5>why don't we do something, you know, to help raise

0:05:01.200 --> 0:05:03.640
<v Speaker 5>money for the kids. And I was like, bingo, yeah,

0:05:03.720 --> 0:05:06.280
<v Speaker 5>let's do something. He goes, I can invite some buddies,

0:05:06.360 --> 0:05:09.599
<v Speaker 5>we can play, you know, maybe we can raise some money.

0:05:10.560 --> 0:05:14.600
<v Speaker 5>You know, I'll get Charlie Hoffman and maybe we'll ask Sander,

0:05:14.720 --> 0:05:17.560
<v Speaker 5>and you know, it kind of started super organic like that,

0:05:18.880 --> 0:05:21.040
<v Speaker 5>and I was kind of going, yeah, right, okay. I

0:05:21.520 --> 0:05:23.440
<v Speaker 5>was like, d okay, you go get those guys. We'll

0:05:23.480 --> 0:05:26.839
<v Speaker 5>do something. And then it was sort of like, well

0:05:26.920 --> 0:05:32.880
<v Speaker 5>they're kind of all off around Thanksgiving, so we just started,

0:05:33.320 --> 0:05:36.760
<v Speaker 5>you know, piecing it together over you know, that first year,

0:05:36.800 --> 0:05:40.360
<v Speaker 5>and you know, you were involved too, and it was like, God,

0:05:40.480 --> 0:05:43.440
<v Speaker 5>it's such a short course. Let's haven't hit Persimmon woods.

0:05:43.440 --> 0:05:45.720
<v Speaker 5>You know, we're always in the Persimmon Woods up there. Okay,

0:05:45.920 --> 0:05:49.800
<v Speaker 5>check kids. You know, this is for the North kunt

0:05:49.800 --> 0:05:53.040
<v Speaker 5>of Junior Golf. And I don't think we had even

0:05:53.240 --> 0:05:57.760
<v Speaker 5>started the Caddy Academy yet. We hadn't really because that's

0:05:57.800 --> 0:06:03.160
<v Speaker 5>been going four years, so anyway, that's kind of how

0:06:03.200 --> 0:06:05.680
<v Speaker 5>it started. And it's you know, we don't rent it

0:06:05.720 --> 0:06:08.200
<v Speaker 5>out to an event company. We do it all in house,

0:06:08.240 --> 0:06:12.320
<v Speaker 5>so it's you know, it's kind of a homemade backyard

0:06:14.320 --> 0:06:18.320
<v Speaker 5>hangout scene, you know. And uh, you know, Jeff, Jeff

0:06:18.360 --> 0:06:21.400
<v Speaker 5>Cunningham came up with a name, which was brilliant, you know,

0:06:22.560 --> 0:06:26.880
<v Speaker 5>because it was around Thanksgiving and you know, uh, when

0:06:26.920 --> 0:06:29.359
<v Speaker 5>you fight for the wishbone, you know, that's our whole

0:06:29.400 --> 0:06:33.040
<v Speaker 5>logo and whoever's the stronger it gets the bigger half

0:06:33.120 --> 0:06:38.719
<v Speaker 5>and all that stuff. So you know, that was great

0:06:39.000 --> 0:06:43.159
<v Speaker 5>and then, uh, yeah, it's just been it's been really

0:06:43.760 --> 0:06:46.280
<v Speaker 5>every year is different for some reason. You know, there's

0:06:46.320 --> 0:06:49.359
<v Speaker 5>a different I don't think we've ever had the exact

0:06:49.400 --> 0:06:56.120
<v Speaker 5>same field, you know, Xander's you know, unfortunately Dean can't

0:06:56.160 --> 0:07:01.200
<v Speaker 5>make it this year, which is a bummer, but he'll

0:07:01.240 --> 0:07:06.680
<v Speaker 5>missed the first year. But Xanders would have played every

0:07:07.000 --> 0:07:10.880
<v Speaker 5>all six of them. Him and Dean a pretty much dominated.

0:07:10.920 --> 0:07:16.600
<v Speaker 5>I think they've won three maybe I don't know. You know,

0:07:16.680 --> 0:07:19.960
<v Speaker 5>winning and losing doesn't really matter. It's just about having

0:07:19.960 --> 0:07:24.960
<v Speaker 5>a blast and getting the whole community together. And you know,

0:07:26.040 --> 0:07:27.960
<v Speaker 5>do something special for the kids.

0:07:28.480 --> 0:07:32.560
<v Speaker 1>So again. This year's Wishbone Brawl consists of Xander Shoffley

0:07:32.640 --> 0:07:36.960
<v Speaker 1>and Chris Riley versus Jeff Ogilvie and Colin Featherstone versus

0:07:37.240 --> 0:07:40.920
<v Speaker 1>Jasmine and Janey Leovau. The format is best ball of

0:07:40.960 --> 0:07:45.000
<v Speaker 1>the twosome, three teams of two, an eighteen hole stroke

0:07:45.040 --> 0:07:49.000
<v Speaker 1>play brawl for it All. It tips at noon on Saturday.

0:07:49.800 --> 0:07:52.680
<v Speaker 1>Here's Will Crop, former captain of the golf team at

0:07:52.720 --> 0:07:55.160
<v Speaker 1>the University of Oklahoma who had a win on the

0:07:55.160 --> 0:07:58.920
<v Speaker 1>PGA Tour Latin America, who now along with his wife

0:07:58.960 --> 0:08:03.559
<v Speaker 1>Morgan and son calls Goat Hill Park home. Crop gives

0:08:03.680 --> 0:08:07.200
<v Speaker 1>lessons and runs Goats Junior Caddy and Leadership Academy. He

0:08:07.240 --> 0:08:10.120
<v Speaker 1>partnered with Fred Couples in the twenty twenty one Wishbone

0:08:10.120 --> 0:08:13.760
<v Speaker 1>bra and has the course record of ten under. Oh

0:08:13.800 --> 0:08:17.200
<v Speaker 1>by the way, he did that playing with per Simon Woods.

0:08:17.840 --> 0:08:22.360
<v Speaker 1>You're somebody who has watched the Wishbone, played in the Wishbone,

0:08:22.880 --> 0:08:27.080
<v Speaker 1>Like what in your mind you've played you know, highly

0:08:27.160 --> 0:08:32.520
<v Speaker 1>competitive events, you're pro, You're like you've been all over

0:08:32.559 --> 0:08:36.160
<v Speaker 1>the world playing golf. Like, try to summarize the essence

0:08:36.440 --> 0:08:39.040
<v Speaker 1>and what makes the wishbone bral like special.

0:08:40.679 --> 0:08:41.400
<v Speaker 6>Great question.

0:08:42.160 --> 0:08:44.120
<v Speaker 7>I mean, I think the biggest thing that hit home

0:08:44.200 --> 0:08:48.400
<v Speaker 7>right off the bat was being home, playing in front

0:08:48.400 --> 0:08:51.360
<v Speaker 7>of the people that you're you know, in the community with.

0:08:51.440 --> 0:08:57.000
<v Speaker 7>I think that was a really really cool experience, especially

0:08:57.040 --> 0:09:00.720
<v Speaker 7>since it's so up close and personal. You're essentially walking

0:09:00.760 --> 0:09:03.440
<v Speaker 7>around with a thousand of your closest friends right next

0:09:03.440 --> 0:09:05.880
<v Speaker 7>to you, and I think that added a whole different

0:09:06.000 --> 0:09:09.160
<v Speaker 7>level than in anything that I've experienced. When we play

0:09:09.200 --> 0:09:12.080
<v Speaker 7>professional golf on the road, you're on the road, you're

0:09:12.120 --> 0:09:15.640
<v Speaker 7>not playing in home tournaments and maybe very rarely does

0:09:15.679 --> 0:09:18.520
<v Speaker 7>somebody have a home tournament, maybe a Jason Day and

0:09:18.559 --> 0:09:22.600
<v Speaker 7>Columbus kind of thing, but very rarely does that ever happen.

0:09:22.760 --> 0:09:27.440
<v Speaker 7>So kind that element in itself of being at home,

0:09:27.800 --> 0:09:30.320
<v Speaker 7>being in front of the people that you spend every

0:09:30.400 --> 0:09:34.200
<v Speaker 7>day with, it just made it that much cooler. I

0:09:34.200 --> 0:09:37.240
<v Speaker 7>think that was the biggest takeaway, and even the week

0:09:37.320 --> 0:09:41.959
<v Speaker 7>leading up to it, I felt pressure from myself in

0:09:42.000 --> 0:09:45.920
<v Speaker 7>that sense, just wanting to perform well, wanting to play

0:09:45.960 --> 0:09:49.679
<v Speaker 7>well in front of everybody because you feel like you

0:09:49.760 --> 0:09:52.240
<v Speaker 7>have the whole community on your shoulders.

0:09:52.960 --> 0:09:55.679
<v Speaker 1>A perfect segue to the idea of adding the lay

0:09:55.720 --> 0:09:59.520
<v Speaker 1>of our Twins to the sixth Annuel Wishbone Brawl. Jasmine

0:09:59.520 --> 0:10:02.880
<v Speaker 1>and Janey Lao are nineteen. They are sophomores at Long

0:10:02.920 --> 0:10:05.280
<v Speaker 1>Beach State where they're on scholarship to play on the

0:10:05.280 --> 0:10:08.160
<v Speaker 1>women's golf team. They've grown up at Goathill Park and

0:10:08.200 --> 0:10:12.120
<v Speaker 1>their products of the North County Junior Golf Association and

0:10:12.240 --> 0:10:15.320
<v Speaker 1>goad Hill Park's Junior Caddy and Leadership Academy, the two

0:10:15.400 --> 0:10:19.520
<v Speaker 1>beneficiaries of all proceeds raised by ticket sales and the

0:10:19.559 --> 0:10:22.840
<v Speaker 1>online auction, which can be found at linksoul dot com.

0:10:23.280 --> 0:10:26.120
<v Speaker 1>As you'll hear, the Layovout twins have caddied in the

0:10:26.160 --> 0:10:30.679
<v Speaker 1>Wishbone Brawl and now they're competitors Goathill Park at four

0:10:31.160 --> 0:10:34.880
<v Speaker 1>five hundred yards par sixty five. It's the ideal venue

0:10:34.880 --> 0:10:37.520
<v Speaker 1>and event to get women involved. Not just playing with

0:10:37.880 --> 0:10:42.600
<v Speaker 1>the men, they're playing against them. Back to Ashworth, how

0:10:42.640 --> 0:10:45.600
<v Speaker 1>did you let the twins know that they were in?

0:10:47.800 --> 0:10:50.760
<v Speaker 5>I actually haven't even talked to them yet. I talked

0:10:50.800 --> 0:10:56.240
<v Speaker 5>to Jan. Jan was the mediator on that one, so

0:10:56.679 --> 0:10:58.560
<v Speaker 5>through I went through their dad Jen.

0:11:00.520 --> 0:11:01.200
<v Speaker 1>And how'd that go?

0:11:04.400 --> 0:11:08.640
<v Speaker 5>Well? You know it was, it was great. He was

0:11:08.679 --> 0:11:15.000
<v Speaker 5>shocked and you know, surprised but loved it. And they

0:11:15.040 --> 0:11:20.040
<v Speaker 5>were like saying, you know, there, you talked to him,

0:11:20.040 --> 0:11:22.480
<v Speaker 5>So I haven't even talked to him. So you tell

0:11:22.600 --> 0:11:25.360
<v Speaker 5>me how they just over the moon or what.

0:11:26.000 --> 0:11:28.800
<v Speaker 1>Meet Jasmine and Janey Leoval, who are zooming in from

0:11:28.840 --> 0:11:32.240
<v Speaker 1>their dorm room at Long Beach State. It's almost impossible

0:11:32.280 --> 0:11:34.640
<v Speaker 1>to tell them apart, not only in person, but also

0:11:34.800 --> 0:11:38.960
<v Speaker 1>as an audio experience. In this case, we start with Janey,

0:11:39.120 --> 0:11:42.800
<v Speaker 1>but they both provide answers and anecdotes here and throughout

0:11:42.840 --> 0:11:45.920
<v Speaker 1>the podcast. How did you guys find out you were

0:11:45.920 --> 0:11:46.880
<v Speaker 1>in this year's Wishbone?

0:11:46.880 --> 0:11:52.400
<v Speaker 2>Bro Our dad he sent us a text saying that

0:11:52.480 --> 0:11:55.640
<v Speaker 2>he needed to talk to us, and we had no

0:11:55.720 --> 0:11:58.520
<v Speaker 2>idea what it was about, so we were like nervous already.

0:11:59.120 --> 0:12:02.680
<v Speaker 2>And then he called us and said that they had

0:12:02.760 --> 0:12:07.920
<v Speaker 2>really good news. And then he said John Ashworth reached

0:12:07.920 --> 0:12:10.560
<v Speaker 2>out to him and asked if we wanted to play

0:12:10.559 --> 0:12:11.360
<v Speaker 2>in the Wishbone.

0:12:12.480 --> 0:12:13.040
<v Speaker 8>Yeah.

0:12:13.120 --> 0:12:14.160
<v Speaker 9>Yeah.

0:12:14.559 --> 0:12:20.280
<v Speaker 2>At first, like our initial reaction, I was kind of scared.

0:12:20.920 --> 0:12:21.400
<v Speaker 9>I was like.

0:12:23.040 --> 0:12:26.480
<v Speaker 2>I didn't know what to say and was contemplating if

0:12:26.520 --> 0:12:29.360
<v Speaker 2>we should play in it or not because didn't know

0:12:29.440 --> 0:12:32.559
<v Speaker 2>how Like we've always been a part of the wishbhone,

0:12:32.600 --> 0:12:36.240
<v Speaker 2>but like playing in his whole different story and in

0:12:36.280 --> 0:12:39.480
<v Speaker 2>front of that many, that many people was definitely.

0:12:39.200 --> 0:12:41.760
<v Speaker 9>Gonna be different than what we're used to because.

0:12:41.600 --> 0:12:43.760
<v Speaker 2>At first we didn't really want to play because we

0:12:43.840 --> 0:12:48.440
<v Speaker 2>didn't think we're ready for that. We've always like thought

0:12:48.480 --> 0:12:50.680
<v Speaker 2>about playing in the wish Phone and like it was

0:12:51.160 --> 0:12:53.960
<v Speaker 2>kind of a dream like come true to like be

0:12:54.040 --> 0:12:56.720
<v Speaker 2>able to do this, but I thought we would be

0:12:56.720 --> 0:12:57.640
<v Speaker 2>playing it as a pro.

0:12:59.600 --> 0:13:05.160
<v Speaker 9>But here we are college amateur golfers. Super cool opportunity.

0:13:05.840 --> 0:13:08.360
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I got chills for you guys. I mean,

0:13:08.520 --> 0:13:11.319
<v Speaker 1>obviously I've been popping in and out of the Goat

0:13:11.559 --> 0:13:15.360
<v Speaker 1>community for a long time, and I feel like, you know,

0:13:15.400 --> 0:13:17.920
<v Speaker 1>we all feel like we've watched you guys grow up.

0:13:18.000 --> 0:13:20.520
<v Speaker 1>You're still growing up, but like, you know, it's just

0:13:20.559 --> 0:13:24.880
<v Speaker 1>been this amazing thing to watch and you know, to

0:13:25.000 --> 0:13:27.600
<v Speaker 1>know that you grew up in North County Junior Golf

0:13:27.920 --> 0:13:33.760
<v Speaker 1>and then Goadhill Park and caddying at the Wishbone Brawls

0:13:34.040 --> 0:13:40.920
<v Speaker 1>from the beginning to now competing like that narrative arc

0:13:41.160 --> 0:13:44.360
<v Speaker 1>and that storyline and again it's kind of still going.

0:13:44.400 --> 0:13:47.320
<v Speaker 1>But that's that to me is what's so sweet and

0:13:47.400 --> 0:13:53.200
<v Speaker 1>special about the community, goad Hill Park, the Wishbone Brawl

0:13:54.000 --> 0:13:56.200
<v Speaker 1>and what's going to transpire on Saturday? Right?

0:13:56.760 --> 0:13:57.439
<v Speaker 9>Yeah?

0:13:57.720 --> 0:13:57.880
<v Speaker 6>Yeah.

0:13:57.960 --> 0:14:02.480
<v Speaker 2>We started I think we still as scorekeepers one year,

0:14:02.640 --> 0:14:06.240
<v Speaker 2>and then we were sign bears and then caddies, and

0:14:06.280 --> 0:14:09.680
<v Speaker 2>then last year we were working the hot dog stand

0:14:09.720 --> 0:14:12.840
<v Speaker 2>with our brother and we actually didn't even get to

0:14:12.920 --> 0:14:16.400
<v Speaker 2>watch the Wishbone because we were working. And now we're

0:14:16.440 --> 0:14:21.320
<v Speaker 2>playing it. It's really funny to see how we've been

0:14:21.480 --> 0:14:24.120
<v Speaker 2>like every part of this this event.

0:14:25.240 --> 0:14:30.360
<v Speaker 1>They originally worked as like scorers and standard bearers. Yeah,

0:14:30.560 --> 0:14:35.440
<v Speaker 1>and then they caddied and last year they actually didn't

0:14:35.440 --> 0:14:37.480
<v Speaker 1>get to see the Wishbone ball because they were helping

0:14:37.480 --> 0:14:39.000
<v Speaker 1>their brother make hot dogs.

0:14:42.040 --> 0:14:47.520
<v Speaker 5>That's right, that's I mean, how good is that? Oh

0:14:47.560 --> 0:14:48.160
<v Speaker 5>my god?

0:14:48.640 --> 0:14:50.040
<v Speaker 6>Well that's that's Isn't.

0:14:49.800 --> 0:14:53.080
<v Speaker 5>That the greatest thing about it? Because and you know,

0:14:53.640 --> 0:14:55.640
<v Speaker 5>like you said, you have to pinch I have to

0:14:55.640 --> 0:14:59.720
<v Speaker 5>pinch myself because I mean I feel like I'm just

0:15:00.040 --> 0:15:03.080
<v Speaker 5>objectively looking at the whole thing, going this is this

0:15:03.360 --> 0:15:04.320
<v Speaker 5>really happening?

0:15:04.560 --> 0:15:05.280
<v Speaker 10>What is this?

0:15:06.080 --> 0:15:08.680
<v Speaker 5>It's such a unicorn, isn't it. That's the only way

0:15:08.760 --> 0:15:10.560
<v Speaker 5>to describe it.

0:15:10.560 --> 0:15:14.000
<v Speaker 1>It's actually a team of Unicorns. The Layovout Twins will

0:15:14.040 --> 0:15:18.440
<v Speaker 1>have the Lee Twins, Ada and Annabelle, also products of

0:15:18.480 --> 0:15:22.040
<v Speaker 1>North County Junior Golf and Goats Junior Caddy Program, who

0:15:22.080 --> 0:15:25.760
<v Speaker 1>have caddied in the last two Wishbone Brawls. Remember when

0:15:25.800 --> 0:15:28.800
<v Speaker 1>Fred Couples grabbed the bullhorn on the eighteenth green and

0:15:28.840 --> 0:15:31.680
<v Speaker 1>declared they were the best two caddies in San Diego.

0:15:32.840 --> 0:15:36.160
<v Speaker 11>My partner and I had the best two caddies in

0:15:36.280 --> 0:15:38.840
<v Speaker 11>San Diego.

0:15:41.040 --> 0:15:43.960
<v Speaker 2>I think that's so cool. The twins and twins is

0:15:44.000 --> 0:15:44.640
<v Speaker 2>just perfect.

0:15:46.640 --> 0:15:50.080
<v Speaker 1>At some point, we're going to look over and we're

0:15:50.080 --> 0:15:54.080
<v Speaker 1>going to see the two of you guys, you know,

0:15:54.200 --> 0:15:58.400
<v Speaker 1>lining up a putt with the Lee Twins helping you

0:15:58.760 --> 0:16:02.800
<v Speaker 1>read the green. Yeah, I mean, like, who do you

0:16:02.880 --> 0:16:03.440
<v Speaker 1>defer to?

0:16:03.520 --> 0:16:03.760
<v Speaker 10>Who?

0:16:03.840 --> 0:16:05.000
<v Speaker 1>Actually who's love?

0:16:06.680 --> 0:16:08.400
<v Speaker 2>I don't think they'll be able to tell who's who,

0:16:08.520 --> 0:16:11.680
<v Speaker 2>Like we could all swish at any time, Yeah, but

0:16:11.760 --> 0:16:17.320
<v Speaker 2>only like all twins, Like we can all tell easily.

0:16:17.520 --> 0:16:20.560
<v Speaker 2>So that'll be funny for the August.

0:16:20.880 --> 0:16:24.680
<v Speaker 1>Who's the best green reader of all four of you guys, I.

0:16:24.640 --> 0:16:25.640
<v Speaker 9>Think definitely them.

0:16:26.000 --> 0:16:27.640
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, they're actually pretty good at reading.

0:16:28.920 --> 0:16:32.280
<v Speaker 2>I know, like I've seen them caddy and they're always

0:16:32.320 --> 0:16:35.280
<v Speaker 2>like really confident in their lines when like telling people

0:16:35.320 --> 0:16:38.440
<v Speaker 2>where to go, and I'm not confident in like telling

0:16:38.440 --> 0:16:40.160
<v Speaker 2>people where to go because I don't want to be wrong.

0:16:40.600 --> 0:16:43.640
<v Speaker 9>But they just straight up like yeah they trust.

0:16:43.360 --> 0:16:48.000
<v Speaker 2>And yeah, I think they're like really amazing caddies and

0:16:48.240 --> 0:16:50.200
<v Speaker 2>it's super cool to have them there.

0:16:50.480 --> 0:16:53.160
<v Speaker 9>It's just a perfect story for the Wishbone.

0:16:54.000 --> 0:16:56.080
<v Speaker 1>Just give me a quick update on where you guys

0:16:56.120 --> 0:17:00.040
<v Speaker 1>are in terms of your college careers. What's going on

0:17:00.240 --> 0:17:04.080
<v Speaker 1>Long Beach State, and how's this season going, and how

0:17:04.119 --> 0:17:05.760
<v Speaker 1>are your individual seasons going.

0:17:06.840 --> 0:17:10.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, we just finished our fall season, and this one

0:17:10.400 --> 0:17:12.400
<v Speaker 2>we broke eleven records.

0:17:11.920 --> 0:17:14.960
<v Speaker 9>As a team. Yeah.

0:17:15.040 --> 0:17:19.639
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, we kept starting for the second tournament, we tied

0:17:19.680 --> 0:17:23.320
<v Speaker 2>like a total team score record, and then in the

0:17:23.359 --> 0:17:26.639
<v Speaker 2>next tournament we tied that in the first day and

0:17:26.680 --> 0:17:29.199
<v Speaker 2>then we ended up breaking the record, and then we

0:17:29.320 --> 0:17:33.720
<v Speaker 2>broke it again in the next next tournament and the final,

0:17:34.200 --> 0:17:38.000
<v Speaker 2>and then we broke the individual low in the second

0:17:38.080 --> 0:17:43.120
<v Speaker 2>day and I broke a I think a fifteen year

0:17:43.119 --> 0:17:47.800

0:18:24.240 --> 0:18:27.760
<v Speaker 1>that golf course and they've got two of the best

0:18:27.800 --> 0:18:30.879
<v Speaker 1>caddies on property right now in their corner. So you

0:18:51.560 --> 0:18:54.760
<v Speaker 2>which is the first time that Long Beach has ever

0:18:54.840 --> 0:18:59.040
<v Speaker 2>gone back to back in the history of the entire program. Yeah,

0:19:00.440 --> 0:19:03.439

0:19:03.520 --> 0:19:07.040
<v Speaker 2>part of history there. And I'm going to continue to

0:19:07.040 --> 0:19:10.320
<v Speaker 2>break it too in the spring. Yeah. We actually did

0:19:10.320 --> 0:19:16.199
<v Speaker 2>an interview before before the second tournament and he was

0:19:16.240 --> 0:19:20.120
<v Speaker 2>asking about how we feel, or is after the second

0:19:20.200 --> 0:19:22.200
<v Speaker 2>After the second tournay, he was asking how we felt

0:19:22.240 --> 0:19:26.960
<v Speaker 2>about breaking a record and I said that it wasn't

0:19:27.000 --> 0:19:29.760
<v Speaker 2>safe still, and I wasn't satisfied because I know We're

0:19:29.760 --> 0:19:32.040
<v Speaker 2>gonna break it in the next tournament, and then the

0:19:32.080 --> 0:19:34.680
<v Speaker 2>next the first day of the next tournament, we broke it.

0:19:36.600 --> 0:19:40.280
<v Speaker 1>Like I said, some serious power. I asked the twins

0:19:40.280 --> 0:19:43.040
<v Speaker 1>what it's like to feel so much local love?

0:19:43.640 --> 0:19:46.520
<v Speaker 9>So cool to see them support us all the time.

0:19:46.720 --> 0:19:49.440
<v Speaker 2>I feel like every every time, like we stepped foot

0:19:49.480 --> 0:19:51.439
<v Speaker 2>on go Hill, you can just like we have so

0:19:51.560 --> 0:19:55.080
<v Speaker 2>much support and love and support from everyone. And I

0:19:55.160 --> 0:19:58.879
<v Speaker 2>know that for this tournament, there's a lot of people

0:19:58.880 --> 0:20:01.240
<v Speaker 2>that believe in us and that we can even win,

0:20:01.720 --> 0:20:08.240
<v Speaker 2>which to me is slightly delusional, but it's super cool

0:20:08.359 --> 0:20:11.119
<v Speaker 2>that they're rooting for us and that they'll be proud

0:20:11.119 --> 0:20:14.000
<v Speaker 2>of us no matter what. Yeah, we've been telling a

0:20:14.000 --> 0:20:16.280
<v Speaker 2>lot of people that we're going to play in this

0:20:16.400 --> 0:20:18.919
<v Speaker 2>and that it's like a pretty big deal, and so

0:20:19.240 --> 0:20:21.000
<v Speaker 2>a lot of people are like, I want to watch.

0:20:21.600 --> 0:20:24.120
<v Speaker 2>So it's cool that we're bringing a lot of people here.

0:20:24.920 --> 0:20:26.840
<v Speaker 1>Back to will Crop, who chimes in on the.

0:20:26.800 --> 0:20:29.960
<v Speaker 7>Twins, I called Goat Hill home, but I've only been

0:20:30.000 --> 0:20:33.040
<v Speaker 7>here since twenty twenty, so that is to put that

0:20:33.080 --> 0:20:35.879
<v Speaker 7>in perspective. It has become my home, but it's not

0:20:36.200 --> 0:20:39.959
<v Speaker 7>my home, and for them it's been their home since

0:20:40.040 --> 0:20:44.280
<v Speaker 7>they could barely walk, so I can't imagine just the

0:20:44.359 --> 0:20:46.840
<v Speaker 7>feelings and emotions that they have to be going through

0:20:46.920 --> 0:20:50.040
<v Speaker 7>leading up to it. I know they've been playing a

0:20:50.080 --> 0:20:53.280
<v Speaker 7>ton of golf in college, they've been playing tournaments, So

0:20:53.440 --> 0:20:57.080
<v Speaker 7>I have confidence that they'll be able to handle that

0:20:57.200 --> 0:20:59.720
<v Speaker 7>pressure because they've been doing it over and over and

0:21:00.640 --> 0:21:05.119
<v Speaker 7>so I don't necessarily think that they I think that

0:21:05.160 --> 0:21:06.560
<v Speaker 7>they're going to play great golf.

0:21:06.640 --> 0:21:07.840
<v Speaker 6>I think they're going to show up.

0:21:07.840 --> 0:21:10.000
<v Speaker 7>I think it's going to be absolutely I think we'll

0:21:10.040 --> 0:21:13.520
<v Speaker 7>have possibly one of the best moments.

0:21:13.160 --> 0:21:14.240
<v Speaker 6>In Wishtown history.

0:21:14.240 --> 0:21:15.879
<v Speaker 7>I don't know where it's going to come from, but

0:21:15.920 --> 0:21:18.040
<v Speaker 7>I think it's going to come from them and just

0:21:18.200 --> 0:21:22.440
<v Speaker 7>the moment that everybody's going to share, from Jasmine and

0:21:22.520 --> 0:21:25.800
<v Speaker 7>Janey to Annabelle and Ada on the bag there and

0:21:25.840 --> 0:21:29.800
<v Speaker 7>then jan and Bobby in the crowd. I think it'll

0:21:29.880 --> 0:21:32.800
<v Speaker 7>just be incredible. I really think there's going to be

0:21:32.840 --> 0:21:33.800
<v Speaker 7>an incredible moment.

0:21:34.760 --> 0:21:37.840
<v Speaker 1>You can't lose, right, Like, there's no way you can

0:21:37.960 --> 0:21:41.880
<v Speaker 1>walk away from this situation, lose them, because no matter

0:21:41.880 --> 0:21:43.840
<v Speaker 1>where you finish, you're getting a chance to play in

0:21:43.880 --> 0:21:46.040
<v Speaker 1>front of a big crowd. There's going to be love

0:21:46.040 --> 0:21:50.000
<v Speaker 1>and support. It's your home course. You're playing with. You know,

0:21:50.720 --> 0:21:53.879
<v Speaker 1>it's competition, but it's a friendly competition in the sense

0:21:53.880 --> 0:21:56.920
<v Speaker 1>that there's no there's no you know, there's nothing really

0:21:56.960 --> 0:21:59.399
<v Speaker 1>on the line other than trying to support you know,

0:21:59.560 --> 0:22:02.959
<v Speaker 1>kids like you were a few years ago. Yeah, is

0:22:02.960 --> 0:22:03.840
<v Speaker 1>that the way you see it?

0:22:04.880 --> 0:22:05.200
<v Speaker 5>Yeah?

0:22:05.359 --> 0:22:11.040
<v Speaker 2>I think I'm obviously just like extremely nervous for this tournament,

0:22:11.160 --> 0:22:13.560
<v Speaker 2>just because we're playing with pros and in front of

0:22:13.960 --> 0:22:18.679
<v Speaker 2>like a thousand people. But overall, it's just gonna be

0:22:19.200 --> 0:22:22.520
<v Speaker 2>an opportunity of a lifetime. I don't think many people

0:22:22.560 --> 0:22:26.280
<v Speaker 2>get to experience something like this, and it's just gonna

0:22:26.320 --> 0:22:30.080
<v Speaker 2>be an amazing learning opportunity. And you know, if we

0:22:30.160 --> 0:22:33.399
<v Speaker 2>want to become a pro golfer and become great, then

0:22:33.560 --> 0:22:36.040
<v Speaker 2>we have to get used to something like this, playing

0:22:36.040 --> 0:22:38.920
<v Speaker 2>with pros and in front of a large crowd. So

0:22:39.160 --> 0:22:41.600
<v Speaker 2>super exciting that we get to do this early on

0:22:41.680 --> 0:22:42.280
<v Speaker 2>in our career.

0:22:43.560 --> 0:22:47.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Jasmine, what do you think?

0:22:48.600 --> 0:22:51.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think this is like a pretty big stepping

0:22:52.000 --> 0:22:57.159
<v Speaker 2>stone in our career overall, and I'm just super excited.

0:22:57.280 --> 0:23:00.520
<v Speaker 2>And yeah, we can't lose either way. I think we

0:23:00.600 --> 0:23:04.600
<v Speaker 2>won the hearts of the people already. Yeah, looking at

0:23:04.640 --> 0:23:09.000
<v Speaker 2>the comments on goa Hill's posts. Seeing some We're like,

0:23:09.440 --> 0:23:12.439
<v Speaker 2>it's gonna feel like Rome to Xander because of the

0:23:12.440 --> 0:23:15.240
<v Speaker 2>amount of people rooting for us, and it was so

0:23:15.440 --> 0:23:16.360
<v Speaker 2>funny to see.

0:23:18.040 --> 0:23:22.359
<v Speaker 1>Back to Ashworth, Laveo Twins said they've been monitoring the

0:23:22.400 --> 0:23:27.840
<v Speaker 1>social media and that they've seen that they feel like

0:23:27.920 --> 0:23:30.480
<v Speaker 1>they already have the hearts of the crowd, and that

0:23:30.520 --> 0:23:34.000
<v Speaker 1>some people were making comments like Xander's gonna feel like

0:23:34.080 --> 0:23:36.919
<v Speaker 1>he's in Rome with everybody rooting against him.

0:23:40.000 --> 0:23:40.639
<v Speaker 5>It's true.

0:23:41.040 --> 0:23:44.240
<v Speaker 12>Everybody, I run up everybody, I run into it the goats,

0:23:44.280 --> 0:23:48.240
<v Speaker 12>and my money's on the Twins. I swear I must

0:23:48.280 --> 0:23:51.440
<v Speaker 12>have had twenty people say I'm rooting for the Twins

0:23:51.560 --> 0:23:57.119
<v Speaker 12>or something about the Twins, and seriously, everyone's gonna be jacked.

0:23:58.880 --> 0:24:03.000
<v Speaker 1>Also jacked is Colin Featherstone, Another local and first time

0:24:03.040 --> 0:24:07.800
<v Speaker 1>wishbone brawler. Featherstone graduated from San Diego State in twenty twelve.

0:24:07.920 --> 0:24:10.520
<v Speaker 1>He turned pro shortly after. He had a long run

0:24:10.560 --> 0:24:13.800
<v Speaker 1>on many tours, specifically the Canadian Tour and PGA Tour

0:24:13.880 --> 0:24:16.879
<v Speaker 1>Latin America. In twenty twenty, after a mixed bag of

0:24:16.960 --> 0:24:21.840
<v Speaker 1>success and struggles and when COVID hit, Featherstone stopped chasing

0:24:21.880 --> 0:24:24.160
<v Speaker 1>it and started working at Titlist, only a few miles

0:24:24.160 --> 0:24:27.399
<v Speaker 1>from Goat Hill Park. He collected data and feedback on

0:24:27.600 --> 0:24:28.680
<v Speaker 1>prototype clubs.

0:24:29.160 --> 0:24:30.800
<v Speaker 10>I learned a lot while I was there, and it

0:24:30.920 --> 0:24:32.320
<v Speaker 10>was a really cool experience.

0:24:33.119 --> 0:24:36.280
<v Speaker 13>And I was lucky enough to be based at TPI,

0:24:36.400 --> 0:24:40.560
<v Speaker 13>the Titleist Performance Institute in Oceanside, and I placed as

0:24:40.560 --> 0:24:41.360
<v Speaker 13>Golf Heaven, so.

0:24:42.920 --> 0:24:46.840
<v Speaker 10>It was a pretty cool office to go to every day.

0:24:48.200 --> 0:24:52.760
<v Speaker 13>And then yeah, in twenty twenty two, I got the

0:24:52.760 --> 0:24:57.719
<v Speaker 13>opportunity playing again. I had someone I played a few

0:24:57.800 --> 0:25:00.399
<v Speaker 13>rounds of golf with asked why I wasn't playing professionally anymore,

0:25:00.440 --> 0:25:06.600
<v Speaker 13>and they offered to help me with some expenses that year.

0:25:06.960 --> 0:25:11.000
<v Speaker 13>And I got through Q school that year in twenty

0:25:11.040 --> 0:25:14.320
<v Speaker 13>twenty two and played the full year on the Contrary

0:25:14.359 --> 0:25:15.200
<v Speaker 13>Tour this last year.

0:25:15.400 --> 0:25:18.160
<v Speaker 10>So it's been a wild ride.

0:25:19.000 --> 0:25:22.160
<v Speaker 5>Okay, he's paid his dues. Man, he's you know, we've

0:25:22.160 --> 0:25:25.160
<v Speaker 5>seen Colin you know, over the years. I mean he

0:25:25.200 --> 0:25:28.680
<v Speaker 5>went from trying to play, then he got a job

0:25:28.760 --> 0:25:33.680
<v Speaker 5>at tide List and found himself, went back, got on

0:25:33.720 --> 0:25:37.600
<v Speaker 5>the corn ferry. But throughout all he's always hung out

0:25:37.600 --> 0:25:40.320
<v Speaker 5>of the Goat. He's always played the monthly medals. He's

0:25:40.400 --> 0:25:44.960
<v Speaker 5>always he's helped us on the course, driving the workmen

0:25:45.160 --> 0:25:48.439
<v Speaker 5>up to number seven, dropping dirt, you know, and we

0:25:48.520 --> 0:25:51.560
<v Speaker 5>had projects going on, weeding the hill on b Hill.

0:25:51.920 --> 0:25:52.119
<v Speaker 6>You know.

0:25:52.960 --> 0:25:57.200
<v Speaker 5>He always shows up and I just love that kid.

0:25:57.280 --> 0:25:58.160
<v Speaker 5>He's just awesome.

0:25:59.040 --> 0:26:04.760
<v Speaker 13>Anyone that meets is immediately drawn to him just for

0:26:04.840 --> 0:26:12.159
<v Speaker 13>his personalities, so open and humble, and Ash has become

0:26:12.760 --> 0:26:14.640
<v Speaker 13>a good friend of mine, which I'm proud to say

0:26:14.680 --> 0:26:20.800
<v Speaker 13>he's you know he I met Ash in like twenty fifteen,

0:26:20.880 --> 0:26:22.480
<v Speaker 13>and I was just playing on many tours and I

0:26:22.600 --> 0:26:26.720
<v Speaker 13>was delusional thinking I should have some sort of clothing sponsor.

0:26:27.440 --> 0:26:32.800
<v Speaker 13>And I met Ash and he hooked me up with

0:26:32.840 --> 0:26:36.840
<v Speaker 13>some clothes, and honestly that that gave me more confidence

0:26:37.040 --> 0:26:40.080
<v Speaker 13>than anything, knowing that I had some sort of clothing sponsor.

0:26:40.160 --> 0:26:41.680
<v Speaker 10>For some reason, it was like, oh, I've made it.

0:26:41.720 --> 0:26:44.680
<v Speaker 10>I have a clothing sponsor, which in no way should

0:26:44.800 --> 0:26:46.520
<v Speaker 10>he have given me any clothes at that point.

0:26:46.520 --> 0:26:48.520
<v Speaker 13>But that's just Ash, Like he's such a good guy

0:26:48.760 --> 0:26:54.240
<v Speaker 13>and so humble and open to helping people. And yeah,

0:26:54.240 --> 0:26:58.119
<v Speaker 13>we've our relationship has grown over the past, you know

0:26:58.160 --> 0:27:02.840
<v Speaker 13>how for many years, eight years, and he's just always

0:27:02.840 --> 0:27:05.680
<v Speaker 13>in good spirits and what he's done for the community

0:27:05.800 --> 0:27:08.440
<v Speaker 13>and what he continues to do for the community and

0:27:08.760 --> 0:27:11.560
<v Speaker 13>for Goat Hill. He's always out there, you know, he's

0:27:11.920 --> 0:27:14.600
<v Speaker 13>getting his hands dirty every day, every project that's going

0:27:14.600 --> 0:27:15.120
<v Speaker 13>on out there.

0:27:15.280 --> 0:27:16.840
<v Speaker 10>Ash is right in the middle of it, which is

0:27:16.880 --> 0:27:21.560
<v Speaker 10>really cool to see. And yeah, proud to call him

0:27:21.560 --> 0:27:22.200
<v Speaker 10>a friend.

0:27:22.600 --> 0:27:25.520
<v Speaker 1>So what's your history with Goad Hill Park.

0:27:27.760 --> 0:27:33.320
<v Speaker 13>Oh, that's a complicated question. My history with Goat is

0:27:33.359 --> 0:27:35.360
<v Speaker 13>that I kind of stumbled.

0:27:35.000 --> 0:27:37.800
<v Speaker 10>Upon it as well.

0:27:37.840 --> 0:27:40.400
<v Speaker 13>I played it a few times before it was saved,

0:27:40.440 --> 0:27:45.800
<v Speaker 13>I guess in twenty fourteen, and the boy was it

0:27:45.880 --> 0:27:48.119
<v Speaker 13>different after it it was. It was saved by Ash

0:27:48.320 --> 0:27:51.760
<v Speaker 13>and the crew. But yeah, I went out there, I

0:27:51.800 --> 0:27:55.440
<v Speaker 13>believe in twenty fourteen, right after Ash took over, and

0:27:56.040 --> 0:28:00.679
<v Speaker 13>just fell in love with the place. It's so it

0:28:00.800 --> 0:28:04.000
<v Speaker 13>was so raw, it still is, and I just love

0:28:04.080 --> 0:28:07.199
<v Speaker 13>the fact that you could go get around in with

0:28:07.240 --> 0:28:09.800
<v Speaker 13>your buddies for twenty bucks and you got an ocean

0:28:09.880 --> 0:28:11.840
<v Speaker 13>view and an ocean breeze and you can play music

0:28:11.920 --> 0:28:18.400
<v Speaker 13>and everything's just so casual. And at that time, you know, I.

0:28:18.359 --> 0:28:19.400
<v Speaker 10>Was a couple of years out of college.

0:28:19.440 --> 0:28:23.199
<v Speaker 13>I was playing professionally at the time, and I was

0:28:23.200 --> 0:28:25.240
<v Speaker 13>playing a lot of serious golf, so it was really

0:28:25.280 --> 0:28:29.520
<v Speaker 13>fun to go to a place that allowed for casual

0:28:29.560 --> 0:28:33.640
<v Speaker 13>golf but also serious still at the same time, because

0:28:34.400 --> 0:28:36.760
<v Speaker 13>most golfers are competitive, so we get some really good

0:28:36.760 --> 0:28:40.320
<v Speaker 13>games out there. And but I just I loved the

0:28:40.400 --> 0:28:43.600
<v Speaker 13>laid back vibe of Goat Hill and fell in love with.

0:28:43.600 --> 0:28:47.280
<v Speaker 10>It at that time, and it's kind of a second

0:28:47.280 --> 0:28:48.000
<v Speaker 10>home for me now.

0:28:48.120 --> 0:28:51.120
<v Speaker 1>So how did you find out you were involved in

0:28:51.120 --> 0:28:52.200
<v Speaker 1>this year's Wishbone bra.

0:28:54.040 --> 0:28:59.560
<v Speaker 13>So Ash called me. Ash just, uh, yeah, I saw

0:28:59.760 --> 0:29:01.040
<v Speaker 13>I Yash out there all the.

0:29:00.960 --> 0:29:03.400
<v Speaker 10>Time and and he kind of gave me a.

0:29:03.120 --> 0:29:09.000
<v Speaker 13>Heads up like, hey, we're we're kicking the tires on

0:29:09.040 --> 0:29:12.959
<v Speaker 13>a few guys and if they can't make it, you're in.

0:29:13.520 --> 0:29:15.440
<v Speaker 10>And you know, I totally understand.

0:29:15.440 --> 0:29:17.840
<v Speaker 13>We got to try to get some some really big

0:29:18.000 --> 0:29:23.719
<v Speaker 13>names in there that are affiliated with Link Soul, and.

0:29:22.040 --> 0:29:24.239
<v Speaker 10>And the scheduling just worked out.

0:29:24.280 --> 0:29:25.760
<v Speaker 13>And called me and said, hey, you're in, and I

0:29:25.840 --> 0:29:29.480
<v Speaker 13>was like, perfect, I've been waiting five years to play

0:29:29.480 --> 0:29:29.840
<v Speaker 13>in this thing.

0:29:29.880 --> 0:29:30.320
<v Speaker 10>I'm ready.

0:29:31.880 --> 0:29:34.600
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, it was a special call once I knew Fred

0:29:34.680 --> 0:29:38.440
<v Speaker 5>was for sure out, and Fred was he was trying

0:29:38.480 --> 0:29:40.680
<v Speaker 5>to make it work, but he had a commitment that

0:29:40.720 --> 0:29:43.640
<v Speaker 5>he just couldn't get out of. So it'll be interesting

0:29:43.640 --> 0:29:45.200
<v Speaker 5>to see if he wants to come back next year.

0:29:45.200 --> 0:29:50.040
<v Speaker 5>I don't know. I hope so, but but yeah, uh

0:29:50.600 --> 0:29:54.240
<v Speaker 5>and he yeah. Colin's like I couldn't believe it either.

0:29:54.440 --> 0:29:56.000
<v Speaker 5>He was like, you don't kid me.

0:29:56.080 --> 0:29:56.440
<v Speaker 6>You know this?

0:29:56.760 --> 0:29:56.960
<v Speaker 4>You know?

0:29:58.560 --> 0:30:02.360
<v Speaker 5>Are you sure it's just real? Come on? So he's

0:30:02.360 --> 0:30:04.360
<v Speaker 5>all fired up. I saw him today out there playing.

0:30:04.640 --> 0:30:08.520
<v Speaker 5>Who's out of practicing. He can't wait for it to start, once,

0:30:08.720 --> 0:30:09.640
<v Speaker 5>to start tomorrow.

0:30:11.600 --> 0:30:15.120
<v Speaker 1>You're been an observer, You're a part of the community.

0:30:16.440 --> 0:30:18.560
<v Speaker 1>There have been years where it's been hard to watch,

0:30:18.600 --> 0:30:21.760
<v Speaker 1>feeling like I want I want in on this. Let

0:30:21.800 --> 0:30:24.120
<v Speaker 1>me I could, I can do this? And now you

0:30:24.240 --> 0:30:25.080
<v Speaker 1>get that chance.

0:30:26.160 --> 0:30:30.160
<v Speaker 13>Yeah, I think as a competitor, anyone would watch that and.

0:30:32.000 --> 0:30:33.080
<v Speaker 10>Just want to be involved.

0:30:33.160 --> 0:30:37.000
<v Speaker 13>So, you know, I've always had a lot of fun

0:30:37.080 --> 0:30:42.160
<v Speaker 13>watching watching the event, but every year I just think

0:30:42.200 --> 0:30:45.480
<v Speaker 13>I just want to be playing. So I'm really excited

0:30:45.520 --> 0:30:47.960
<v Speaker 13>to get my chance this year and hopefully I can

0:30:49.000 --> 0:30:50.960
<v Speaker 13>show up and make a lot of birdies.

0:30:51.560 --> 0:30:54.280
<v Speaker 1>Your year this year on the corn Ferry kind of

0:30:54.320 --> 0:30:58.640
<v Speaker 1>summarize the season, the events, the highs and lows.

0:31:00.280 --> 0:31:02.360
<v Speaker 10>Yeah, there were plenty of highs and plenty of lows.

0:31:02.400 --> 0:31:02.760
<v Speaker 10>For sure.

0:31:03.880 --> 0:31:08.120
<v Speaker 13>It's a long season, twenty six events coming off of

0:31:08.520 --> 0:31:10.880
<v Speaker 13>a couple of years of not playing tournament.

0:31:10.480 --> 0:31:15.480
<v Speaker 10>Golf, it was a really long year for me, just.

0:31:15.440 --> 0:31:19.120
<v Speaker 13>The travel and not having played a full season out

0:31:19.160 --> 0:31:19.680
<v Speaker 13>there before.

0:31:19.840 --> 0:31:20.880
<v Speaker 10>I was going into.

0:31:20.760 --> 0:31:25.720
<v Speaker 13>Every week trying to learn every course, figure out where

0:31:25.760 --> 0:31:30.680
<v Speaker 13>to hit it or not to hit it. And it's

0:31:30.800 --> 0:31:33.360
<v Speaker 13>just like I said, it's a long season. And I

0:31:33.400 --> 0:31:37.200
<v Speaker 13>really enjoyed my time out there, and I ended up

0:31:37.240 --> 0:31:40.680
<v Speaker 13>finishing ninety first on the points list, which should give

0:31:40.720 --> 0:31:43.240
<v Speaker 13>me some fairly good conditional status in the next year.

0:31:43.320 --> 0:31:46.640
<v Speaker 13>So hopefully I'll get into some of the early events

0:31:47.440 --> 0:31:50.600
<v Speaker 13>at the start of the year and reshuffle.

0:31:50.040 --> 0:31:52.840
<v Speaker 10>In and play the whole year again. So I'm really

0:31:52.880 --> 0:31:53.480
<v Speaker 10>hoping to get.

0:31:53.320 --> 0:31:55.440
<v Speaker 13>Another opportunity to go play all these courses that I've

0:31:55.480 --> 0:31:57.680
<v Speaker 13>now played and kind of don't have to get in

0:31:57.720 --> 0:32:00.800
<v Speaker 13>on Monday and just grind Tuesday Wednesday to figure out

0:32:00.840 --> 0:32:05.360
<v Speaker 13>the courses and then get into Thursday. So yeah, it

0:32:05.400 --> 0:32:09.320
<v Speaker 13>was it was really fun. It was fun to be

0:32:09.360 --> 0:32:13.280
<v Speaker 13>back into competition and competition on that type of stage

0:32:13.280 --> 0:32:15.880
<v Speaker 13>with an opportunity to get a PGA tour card. So

0:32:16.600 --> 0:32:19.800
<v Speaker 13>just looking forward to next year and having that same opportunity.

0:32:20.280 --> 0:32:24.520
<v Speaker 1>You have three nine unders that go to a park

0:32:24.560 --> 0:32:26.520
<v Speaker 1>with for Simmon Woods.

0:32:26.360 --> 0:32:30.080
<v Speaker 13>Yeah yeah, yeah, does haunt me now that Will has

0:32:30.520 --> 0:32:31.000
<v Speaker 13>ten under.

0:32:36.200 --> 0:32:38.040
<v Speaker 1>You're really good at second best.

0:32:38.840 --> 0:32:39.480
<v Speaker 5>Yeah yeah.

0:32:39.480 --> 0:32:41.400
<v Speaker 13>It was first best for a while and then we'll

0:32:41.400 --> 0:32:43.920
<v Speaker 13>shot ten under and then I was back to the

0:32:44.000 --> 0:32:46.040
<v Speaker 13>drawing board. Now I'm just trying to shoot ten under

0:32:46.080 --> 0:32:48.280
<v Speaker 13>every time I play, which is also a great mindset

0:32:48.320 --> 0:32:48.640
<v Speaker 13>to be in.

0:32:50.200 --> 0:32:52.760
<v Speaker 1>Back to Will Crop on all things course record.

0:32:52.720 --> 0:32:54.640
<v Speaker 6>Somebody eventually will go to eleven.

0:32:54.880 --> 0:32:57.840
<v Speaker 7>I'm not under the impression that I'll hold it forever.

0:32:58.480 --> 0:33:01.280
<v Speaker 6>It might be me that goes to eleven. I don't know,

0:33:01.400 --> 0:33:02.680
<v Speaker 6>but we'll see.

0:33:02.960 --> 0:33:06.560
<v Speaker 7>If Collins shot eleven under in the Wish John on Saturday,

0:33:06.960 --> 0:33:09.200
<v Speaker 7>I would be the first and happiest guy to shake

0:33:09.240 --> 0:33:12.080
<v Speaker 7>you his hand because that would be an unbelievable accomplishment.

0:33:12.240 --> 0:33:14.680
<v Speaker 7>So I think the cool thing about having Calling up

0:33:14.680 --> 0:33:19.080
<v Speaker 7>there along with Peko, along with every great player up

0:33:19.120 --> 0:33:21.840
<v Speaker 7>at Goat Hill, is that we push each other to

0:33:21.960 --> 0:33:25.600
<v Speaker 7>do better. And I think that is such an amazing

0:33:25.680 --> 0:33:29.000
<v Speaker 7>opportunity for us, and we've talked about that, is we're

0:33:29.040 --> 0:33:31.320
<v Speaker 7>always traveling on the road. Now some of us have

0:33:31.520 --> 0:33:34.480
<v Speaker 7>kids and stuff, but man really leaning in and setting

0:33:34.600 --> 0:33:36.960
<v Speaker 7>up these games where I mean, we have world class

0:33:36.960 --> 0:33:39.400
<v Speaker 7>players right there at the goat and using each other

0:33:39.480 --> 0:33:43.719
<v Speaker 7>to you know, make that course record fourteen under. I mean,

0:33:43.760 --> 0:33:46.959
<v Speaker 7>I think that legitimately somebody can shoot fourteen or fifteen

0:33:47.080 --> 0:33:49.560
<v Speaker 7>under at the goat with per Simmons. And I think

0:33:49.600 --> 0:33:52.000
<v Speaker 7>that if we can catapult on each other and use

0:33:52.040 --> 0:33:55.560
<v Speaker 7>each other and you know, get better off of each other,

0:33:55.680 --> 0:33:58.000
<v Speaker 7>it will happen and it'll just go eleven, twelve, thirteen,

0:33:58.080 --> 0:33:59.840
<v Speaker 7>kind of like the five minute mile once it was.

0:34:00.360 --> 0:34:03.800
<v Speaker 6>It's just going to keep going. So to see.

0:34:03.640 --> 0:34:07.360
<v Speaker 7>Colin playing in the Wishbone myself and knowing what Colin's

0:34:08.200 --> 0:34:11.120
<v Speaker 7>going to embark on on Saturday, I'm just excited for him.

0:34:11.200 --> 0:34:14.200
<v Speaker 7>I think it's such a cool opportunity. And I mean

0:34:14.239 --> 0:34:16.279
<v Speaker 7>he's in front of his home crowd way more than

0:34:16.600 --> 0:34:18.320
<v Speaker 7>I was, you know, so I think it's going to

0:34:18.360 --> 0:34:21.440
<v Speaker 7>be a special moment. I saw his father last weekend

0:34:21.480 --> 0:34:23.839
<v Speaker 7>at the Xander event, and his dad was, you could

0:34:23.880 --> 0:34:29.000
<v Speaker 7>tell over overflowing with joy about what Saturday is going

0:34:29.080 --> 0:34:32.640
<v Speaker 7>to bring in. I think, regardless, it's not really about

0:34:32.680 --> 0:34:33.920
<v Speaker 7>the score as much.

0:34:33.719 --> 0:34:36.480
<v Speaker 6>As it is just I mean, what an accomplishment.

0:34:36.520 --> 0:34:38.200
<v Speaker 7>He's going to be out there playing in front of

0:34:38.239 --> 0:34:42.319
<v Speaker 7>his his friends, his family, the Goat family, and I

0:34:42.360 --> 0:34:44.879
<v Speaker 7>think that there's no doubt Colin's going to have an.

0:34:44.880 --> 0:34:46.200
<v Speaker 6>Unbelievable moment as well.

0:34:46.320 --> 0:34:48.759
<v Speaker 7>So it's going to be exciting and I'll be front

0:34:48.840 --> 0:34:52.160
<v Speaker 7>row and he has it and I can't wait to

0:34:52.160 --> 0:34:52.759
<v Speaker 7>see what it is.

0:34:52.800 --> 0:34:54.960
<v Speaker 6>It's like a good movie. It's you know it's going

0:34:55.040 --> 0:34:55.440
<v Speaker 6>to happen.

0:34:55.480 --> 0:34:58.200
<v Speaker 7>You know the ending's coming, but it's just exciting to

0:34:58.200 --> 0:34:59.200
<v Speaker 7>see where it pieces in.

0:34:59.840 --> 0:35:04.120
<v Speaker 1>A your expectations going into something like this, I.

0:35:04.080 --> 0:35:07.399
<v Speaker 13>Mean, my expectations stayed the same. I'd like to play

0:35:07.440 --> 0:35:12.759
<v Speaker 13>really well, and you know it's not it's hard not

0:35:12.840 --> 0:35:17.719
<v Speaker 13>to think ahead when you have one round. It's kind

0:35:17.719 --> 0:35:20.120
<v Speaker 13>of like a Monday qualifier, right, and you know you

0:35:20.200 --> 0:35:24.680
<v Speaker 13>need to go shoot a low number, but you just

0:35:24.760 --> 0:35:26.879
<v Speaker 13>kind of have to settle in. And I mean, I've

0:35:26.880 --> 0:35:32.120
<v Speaker 13>played that place so many times, so my expectations are

0:35:32.120 --> 0:35:34.400
<v Speaker 13>to play well, but we'll see what happens. It's one

0:35:34.440 --> 0:35:35.000
<v Speaker 13>day of golf.

0:35:35.000 --> 0:35:35.440
<v Speaker 10>You never know.

0:35:36.800 --> 0:35:40.600
<v Speaker 1>What about the twins, what are your thoughts on you know,

0:35:40.680 --> 0:35:44.239
<v Speaker 1>we've all watched them grow up. We're still watching them

0:35:44.280 --> 0:35:46.640
<v Speaker 1>grow up. I mean they're you know, they're nineteen, you know,

0:35:46.960 --> 0:35:51.600
<v Speaker 1>and they're they're playing you know, college golf, not unlike

0:35:51.640 --> 0:35:55.080
<v Speaker 1>what you did, what Xander did. They're having some success.

0:35:55.200 --> 0:35:59.000
<v Speaker 1>They obviously know the Goat. They're playing really good golf.

0:36:00.920 --> 0:36:03.040
<v Speaker 1>What are your thoughts on just this being kind of

0:36:03.120 --> 0:36:06.840
<v Speaker 1>the perfect kind of an event and venue and where

0:36:06.880 --> 0:36:11.120
<v Speaker 1>women's golf is and where the Goat clientele is with

0:36:11.200 --> 0:36:15.239
<v Speaker 1>all the we see it right daily women girls, and

0:36:15.400 --> 0:36:19.920
<v Speaker 1>just the kind of the feel good, you know, opportunity

0:36:19.920 --> 0:36:22.920
<v Speaker 1>for them to be a part of this and to

0:36:23.000 --> 0:36:25.839
<v Speaker 1>compete in a way in which, you know, I don't

0:36:25.840 --> 0:36:28.520
<v Speaker 1>think anybody would be surprised if they freaking won this thing.

0:36:29.360 --> 0:36:34.440
<v Speaker 13>No, definitely not. They're both really good players, and they've grown.

0:36:34.239 --> 0:36:35.319
<v Speaker 10>Up at Goat, and.

0:36:37.000 --> 0:36:39.520
<v Speaker 13>You know, I've had my fair share of battles with

0:36:39.560 --> 0:36:41.800
<v Speaker 13>them over the years when they were sixteen or seventeen

0:36:41.840 --> 0:36:46.840
<v Speaker 13>years old, which is humbling when I'm playing professional golf.

0:36:48.480 --> 0:36:51.120
<v Speaker 13>They're really good players, and it's really cool to have

0:36:52.000 --> 0:36:57.480
<v Speaker 13>them involved in this year, and they definitely deserve to

0:36:57.520 --> 0:36:59.000
<v Speaker 13>be playing, and it's great.

0:36:58.760 --> 0:37:00.760
<v Speaker 10>To have some women playing in the event.

0:37:01.239 --> 0:37:02.839
<v Speaker 13>It's like you said, I mean, we've got a lot

0:37:02.880 --> 0:37:05.399
<v Speaker 13>of women playing out of Goat Hill, and and it's

0:37:05.440 --> 0:37:09.360
<v Speaker 13>cool to see the game grow not only on the

0:37:09.360 --> 0:37:14.880
<v Speaker 13>men's side, but on the women's side too. So I

0:37:14.880 --> 0:37:17.160
<v Speaker 13>think they're gonna have a great time, and I think

0:37:17.160 --> 0:37:19.360
<v Speaker 13>they're gonna play well. It's gonna be it's gonna be

0:37:19.360 --> 0:37:21.640
<v Speaker 13>a fun match. I hope they play well, but just

0:37:21.680 --> 0:37:23.040
<v Speaker 13>not quite as well as Jeff and I do.

0:37:23.239 --> 0:37:28.320
<v Speaker 1>To be honest, you know, you guys are probably wearing

0:37:28.360 --> 0:37:30.399
<v Speaker 1>T shirts and it's gonna be casual, and there's gonna

0:37:30.400 --> 0:37:32.560
<v Speaker 1>be dogs, and you got the kids and the girls

0:37:32.600 --> 0:37:35.839
<v Speaker 1>playing in the tournament with the guy. I mean, isn't

0:37:35.840 --> 0:37:38.680
<v Speaker 1>this just some sort of like mashup of like what

0:37:38.880 --> 0:37:39.680
<v Speaker 1>really matters?

0:37:41.160 --> 0:37:43.600
<v Speaker 13>Yeah, I mean you said it perfectly. With all of

0:37:43.640 --> 0:37:46.480
<v Speaker 13>those things coming together, that is Goat Hill, right. It's

0:37:46.560 --> 0:37:49.640
<v Speaker 13>you got the kids, the dogs, the T shirts and

0:37:49.680 --> 0:37:53.360
<v Speaker 13>shorts and flip flops, and it's just a it's just

0:37:53.400 --> 0:37:57.279
<v Speaker 13>a casual, easy going, fun time. But also we're all

0:37:57.320 --> 0:37:59.520
<v Speaker 13>there to compete, which I think everybody loves to see

0:37:59.560 --> 0:38:02.200
<v Speaker 13>as well, which is I think what Goat does best.

0:38:02.280 --> 0:38:03.760
<v Speaker 6>It's it's.

0:38:05.320 --> 0:38:08.120
<v Speaker 10>It's casual but you better bring your a game so

0:38:09.760 --> 0:38:10.839
<v Speaker 10>otherwise it'll eat you up.

0:38:11.680 --> 0:38:15.360
<v Speaker 1>So that's an introduction to the newbies. But before we wrap,

0:38:15.880 --> 0:38:18.360
<v Speaker 1>there are a few other things to address. Back to

0:38:18.400 --> 0:38:22.080
<v Speaker 1>Will Crop on the evolution of the course, leadership, Ashworth,

0:38:22.760 --> 0:38:24.799
<v Speaker 1>the staff, and the emerics.

0:38:25.320 --> 0:38:27.880
<v Speaker 7>Seems like I've been here for ten years, but it's

0:38:27.960 --> 0:38:29.840
<v Speaker 7>only been three and a half. So to see what

0:38:29.920 --> 0:38:31.960
<v Speaker 7>John's done in three and a half years at the

0:38:32.040 --> 0:38:35.320
<v Speaker 7>Goat is just incredible. And I mean it's only picking

0:38:35.400 --> 0:38:38.640
<v Speaker 7>up momentum and he's the one that spearheaded it. He's

0:38:38.640 --> 0:38:40.840
<v Speaker 7>the one on the tractor at six point thirty am

0:38:41.320 --> 0:38:44.680
<v Speaker 7>driving plants up and down the course. So there's not

0:38:45.080 --> 0:38:49.319
<v Speaker 7>any you know, surprise when the leader is you know,

0:38:50.200 --> 0:38:52.200
<v Speaker 7>behaving and acting like that that the.

0:38:52.160 --> 0:38:53.880
<v Speaker 6>Place is going to be successful.

0:38:53.920 --> 0:38:56.680
<v Speaker 7>I think everybody just falls in line and rides the

0:38:56.719 --> 0:39:00.400
<v Speaker 7>wave that John creates. And to see him in his

0:39:00.480 --> 0:39:04.080
<v Speaker 7>happy place up at the Goat, you know, laying laying

0:39:04.160 --> 0:39:07.400
<v Speaker 7>pavers down or you know, digging up dirt, it's like

0:39:07.800 --> 0:39:10.160
<v Speaker 7>it's like a kid in a candy store and it's

0:39:10.239 --> 0:39:14.000
<v Speaker 7>just cool to see him so happy, and that happiness

0:39:14.040 --> 0:39:15.879
<v Speaker 7>just reflects into everybody else.

0:39:15.920 --> 0:39:17.880
<v Speaker 6>So from last at Bernie.

0:39:17.480 --> 0:39:20.919
<v Speaker 7>To Jay to Hunter to Bradford to all the way

0:39:21.000 --> 0:39:21.840
<v Speaker 7>down the list.

0:39:22.280 --> 0:39:24.560
<v Speaker 6>I mean, we haven't even talked about.

0:39:24.400 --> 0:39:27.280
<v Speaker 7>Dave yet and what David Marsha have done, it would

0:39:27.280 --> 0:39:31.600
<v Speaker 7>be there without them. So I think that everybody there,

0:39:32.160 --> 0:39:35.040
<v Speaker 7>you know, piggybacks on this idea that John had. But

0:39:35.480 --> 0:39:37.880
<v Speaker 7>he had so many great people around him, like the

0:39:37.920 --> 0:39:41.840
<v Speaker 7>Emirates that you know, built back up North County Junior Golf.

0:39:41.880 --> 0:39:44.680
<v Speaker 7>And you know, Dave's been doing instruction at the Goat

0:39:44.680 --> 0:39:48.040
<v Speaker 7>and doing the kids and creating such an inviting environment

0:39:48.120 --> 0:39:50.359
<v Speaker 7>for kids and people to get into the game that

0:39:51.160 --> 0:39:53.400
<v Speaker 7>it's just like an all star lineup up there and

0:39:53.440 --> 0:39:58.080
<v Speaker 7>there's you know, no no surprise of where it's, where

0:39:58.080 --> 0:40:00.680
<v Speaker 7>it's come and the exciting part is where it's going.

0:40:01.239 --> 0:40:01.600
<v Speaker 6>All right.

0:40:01.640 --> 0:40:04.920
<v Speaker 11>I'm David Emrick, PJ member, an instructor here at the

0:40:04.920 --> 0:40:09.800
<v Speaker 11>Godhill Park and partner and host professional so and I'm

0:40:09.800 --> 0:40:12.480
<v Speaker 11>the founder and I guess president of the North County.

0:40:12.280 --> 0:40:13.320
<v Speaker 6>Junior Golf Association.

0:40:14.239 --> 0:40:16.840
<v Speaker 11>We started that in nineteen ninety eight by Mike Marsha

0:40:16.880 --> 0:40:19.600
<v Speaker 11>and I we kind of run the thing. We have

0:40:20.040 --> 0:40:22.560
<v Speaker 11>twenty four tournaments a year. We have about fourteen hundred

0:40:22.600 --> 0:40:26.320
<v Speaker 11>kids playing this year and it's a great, great event,

0:40:26.400 --> 0:40:28.480
<v Speaker 11>great place to get the kids started in junior golf,

0:40:28.520 --> 0:40:30.400
<v Speaker 11>and we love what we do and that's why we

0:40:30.440 --> 0:40:31.720
<v Speaker 11>do it, I guess.

0:40:31.680 --> 0:40:34.760
<v Speaker 1>I asked Emeric for more details on North County Junior Golf.

0:40:35.160 --> 0:40:38.240
<v Speaker 11>The home is Godhill Park, so not too many junior

0:40:38.239 --> 0:40:41.239
<v Speaker 11>golf associations have a home have support like we do

0:40:41.360 --> 0:40:45.920
<v Speaker 11>from John Ashworth and we run like twenty four tournaments

0:40:45.920 --> 0:40:48.520
<v Speaker 11>introductory and we also have classes we teach kids, you know,

0:40:48.560 --> 0:40:53.040
<v Speaker 11>and our home motto is you know, accessible, affordable, competitive

0:40:53.080 --> 0:40:55.040
<v Speaker 11>and fun event. So we make sure all the kids

0:40:55.080 --> 0:40:57.319
<v Speaker 11>love playing golf. And it's a lot of times your

0:40:57.360 --> 0:40:59.360
<v Speaker 11>first experience with tournament golf, so we want to make

0:40:59.400 --> 0:41:01.799
<v Speaker 11>sure it's gets off to a good start and they

0:41:01.840 --> 0:41:04.360
<v Speaker 11>love the game. And we've been doing this since nineteen

0:41:04.440 --> 0:41:07.120
<v Speaker 11>ninety eight and it's grown a lot. I mean when

0:41:07.120 --> 0:41:09.239
<v Speaker 11>we first start out, we were just at Rancher Carlsbad

0:41:09.280 --> 0:41:12.680
<v Speaker 11>had three four events a year, and as we kids

0:41:12.800 --> 0:41:14.719
<v Speaker 11>got older, I wanted to have more tournaments, so we

0:41:14.760 --> 0:41:16.239
<v Speaker 11>started the Championship Tour.

0:41:16.280 --> 0:41:19.359
<v Speaker 8>We play eighteen whole courses now and executive courses, so.

0:41:19.280 --> 0:41:21.439
<v Speaker 11>I think we're one of the only tours that really

0:41:21.840 --> 0:41:23.640
<v Speaker 11>catered to all the kids, you know, all age and

0:41:23.680 --> 0:41:26.360
<v Speaker 11>skill levels, and we've been doing it. This will be

0:41:26.400 --> 0:41:29.520
<v Speaker 11>our twenty fifth year, which is really really amazing. It's

0:41:29.560 --> 0:41:31.720
<v Speaker 11>been really it's been so fun.

0:41:32.960 --> 0:41:39.040
<v Speaker 1>What's your relationship with Xander and what's his involvement with

0:41:39.200 --> 0:41:45.200
<v Speaker 1>North County Junior Golf and how has his involvement impacted

0:41:45.239 --> 0:41:46.240
<v Speaker 1>the program in general.

0:41:46.719 --> 0:41:48.760
<v Speaker 11>Well, you know, we met Xander when he was playing

0:41:48.760 --> 0:41:51.360
<v Speaker 11>at Santulist as my son Evan played dre and was

0:41:51.400 --> 0:41:55.120
<v Speaker 11>coaching there. So we've developed a bond with Xander and

0:41:55.160 --> 0:41:57.600
<v Speaker 11>he wanted to give back, and you know, him and

0:41:57.640 --> 0:42:00.000
<v Speaker 11>step On and the whole family thought that North County

0:42:00.080 --> 0:42:02.400
<v Speaker 11>you got was the right fit for them.

0:42:02.760 --> 0:42:02.960

<v Speaker 8>It's we get thanks every day for Xander's involvement.

0:42:12.200 --> 0:42:12.360
<v Speaker 6>You know.

0:42:12.400 --> 0:42:14.719
<v Speaker 11>Our main goal now is to build the North County

0:42:14.800 --> 0:42:17.560
<v Speaker 11>Junior Golf Clubhouse, which will be located on the east

0:42:17.680 --> 0:42:19.480
<v Speaker 11>end of the property and it's gonna be a great

0:42:19.480 --> 0:42:22.359
<v Speaker 11>event center for the community and Xander's all behind it

0:42:22.400 --> 0:42:26.279

<v Speaker 11>Them, you know, giving and living and just being a

0:42:40.239 --> 0:42:41.600
<v Speaker 11>great part of it.

0:42:41.760 --> 0:42:43.880
<v Speaker 1>I asked Emeric for his thoughts on the twins.

0:42:44.640 --> 0:42:46.520
<v Speaker 8>Well, yeah, they got a chance, right, they're playing it.

0:42:46.560 --> 0:42:49.560
<v Speaker 11>They got a chance, and they're I mean, they are some

0:42:49.640 --> 0:42:53.160
<v Speaker 11>special kids and they've earned everything that they've nothing's been

0:42:53.160 --> 0:42:53.680
<v Speaker 11>given to him.

0:42:53.680 --> 0:42:54.840
<v Speaker 8>They've dug it out of dirt.

0:42:54.920 --> 0:42:58.560
<v Speaker 11>I mean they in high school they call me, you know, hey, coach,

0:42:58.640 --> 0:42:59.880
<v Speaker 11>we play Sunday morning.

0:42:59.680 --> 0:43:00.399
<v Speaker 8>It's five thirty.

0:43:00.440 --> 0:43:02.719
<v Speaker 11>They show up with their pajamas and you know, a

0:43:02.800 --> 0:43:04.760
<v Speaker 11>bag of donuts, and you know, we used to whoop

0:43:04.760 --> 0:43:06.799
<v Speaker 11>them jan I and you know that lasted a couple

0:43:06.800 --> 0:43:08.959
<v Speaker 11>of years. Now they just whoop us all the time,

0:43:09.040 --> 0:43:11.480
<v Speaker 11>and we're so proud of them. They are just the

0:43:11.520 --> 0:43:13.480
<v Speaker 11>whole family, the whole Layot. Our family is a big

0:43:13.520 --> 0:43:16.640
<v Speaker 11>part of North kind of junior golf for many years

0:43:16.640 --> 0:43:19.560
<v Speaker 11>and now the great thing I think that we provide

0:43:19.560 --> 0:43:21.560
<v Speaker 11>with North kind of junior golf is a place to win.

0:43:22.600 --> 0:43:25.680
<v Speaker 11>I mean the kids played in so many tournaments now,

0:43:25.760 --> 0:43:28.359
<v Speaker 11>but I think the important factor is learning how to win.

0:43:28.440 --> 0:43:32.160
<v Speaker 11>And Jasmine Jenney would they played, they didn't win, They

0:43:32.200 --> 0:43:34.480
<v Speaker 11>were at the bottom of the list, and they you know,

0:43:34.520 --> 0:43:36.759
<v Speaker 11>each year they worked their way up until you know,

0:43:36.800 --> 0:43:39.080
<v Speaker 11>they were just dominating. You know, they won ten twelve

0:43:39.120 --> 0:43:41.520
<v Speaker 11>events a year, and I think that gives them the conference.

0:43:41.520 --> 0:43:43.120
<v Speaker 11>I think it's really important to learn how to win.

0:43:43.800 --> 0:43:46.319
<v Speaker 11>And the girls they get back. I mean anytime we

0:43:46.400 --> 0:43:48.600
<v Speaker 11>ask them for anything, there more than welcome.

0:43:48.680 --> 0:43:52.640
<v Speaker 8>You know, there were caddies in the Wishbone and Xander said,

0:43:52.640 --> 0:43:55.000
<v Speaker 8>it isn't that Jasmine Jay caddies for me one time.

0:43:54.880 --> 0:43:56.640
<v Speaker 11>And go yeah, now that they're playing with you, and

0:43:56.680 --> 0:43:59.280
<v Speaker 11>He's like, oh boy, the get out those pursuemons.

0:43:59.719 --> 0:44:02.320
<v Speaker 1>Which brings us back to will Crop and Goats Junior

0:44:02.400 --> 0:44:06.120
<v Speaker 1>Caddy and Leadership Program, which was started about four years ago,

0:44:06.600 --> 0:44:09.800
<v Speaker 1>similar to the Solage Caddy and Leadership Academy at common

0:44:09.840 --> 0:44:12.600
<v Speaker 1>Ground in Denver, Colorado. If you show up at Goat

0:44:12.640 --> 0:44:15.080
<v Speaker 1>Hill Park and take a junior caddy, their fee of

0:44:15.160 --> 0:44:18.400
<v Speaker 1>forty dollars is subsidized. All you have to do is

0:44:18.440 --> 0:44:21.120
<v Speaker 1>agree to engage with them, mentor them, and if they've

0:44:21.160 --> 0:44:24.600
<v Speaker 1>earned it, you can give them a tip. Everyone wins.

0:44:25.360 --> 0:44:27.799
<v Speaker 7>The whole goal of the program is to give these

0:44:27.880 --> 0:44:30.400
<v Speaker 7>kids not only a job for the summer, but a

0:44:30.440 --> 0:44:33.400
<v Speaker 7>place to go that they can be a part of

0:44:33.480 --> 0:44:37.000
<v Speaker 7>a community and they can learn things through golf that

0:44:37.840 --> 0:44:40.840
<v Speaker 7>lessons that will stay with them for the rest of

0:44:40.880 --> 0:44:45.200
<v Speaker 7>their lives. And that's really There is an element of

0:44:45.239 --> 0:44:47.759
<v Speaker 7>wanting them to get into golf. Sure, we do want

0:44:47.760 --> 0:44:50.160
<v Speaker 7>to grow the game, but it's about so much more

0:44:50.239 --> 0:44:51.840
<v Speaker 7>than anything to do with golf.

0:44:51.880 --> 0:44:54.800
<v Speaker 6>It's about learning to communicate with adults.

0:44:54.800 --> 0:44:57.800
<v Speaker 7>That's learning how to hold yourself around a golf course,

0:44:58.360 --> 0:45:02.200
<v Speaker 7>how to interact with people that you're working for and

0:45:02.280 --> 0:45:03.279
<v Speaker 7>that you're working with.

0:45:03.960 --> 0:45:06.560
<v Speaker 6>And golf is such a beautiful.

0:45:06.120 --> 0:45:08.880
<v Speaker 7>Canvas and I can't think of a better place to

0:45:08.960 --> 0:45:11.520
<v Speaker 7>do it than goat Hill to teach these kids.

0:45:11.560 --> 0:45:13.920
<v Speaker 6>I mean, we had the Caddy.

0:45:13.680 --> 0:45:18.120
<v Speaker 7>Ending tournament this Sunday, and one thing that I really

0:45:18.160 --> 0:45:20.919
<v Speaker 7>reflected on is watching these kids come in in May

0:45:21.040 --> 0:45:23.800
<v Speaker 7>and kind of be, you know, deer in a headlights,

0:45:23.880 --> 0:45:27.239
<v Speaker 7>not really know where they're going, what's going on, kind

0:45:27.280 --> 0:45:30.719
<v Speaker 7>of shy to the members and stuff, and by the end,

0:45:31.160 --> 0:45:33.520
<v Speaker 7>you know, they're part of the community. We have members

0:45:33.560 --> 0:45:36.560
<v Speaker 7>come out that caddy for them, want to caddy for them,

0:45:36.680 --> 0:45:39.799
<v Speaker 7>be a part of the program, and they're rooting them

0:45:39.840 --> 0:45:42.880
<v Speaker 7>on like they're their own kids. And I think that's

0:45:43.000 --> 0:45:46.719
<v Speaker 7>what has been the coolest part of the academy for

0:45:46.880 --> 0:45:49.000
<v Speaker 7>me running it for the first year is seeing the

0:45:49.080 --> 0:45:53.200
<v Speaker 7>kids get involved, get comfortable, become a part of this

0:45:53.320 --> 0:45:58.000
<v Speaker 7>great community that we have. That has been extremely rewarding

0:45:58.040 --> 0:46:02.000
<v Speaker 7>into something that I wasn't necessarily expecting right off the bat,

0:46:03.480 --> 0:46:06.560
<v Speaker 7>But in terms of taking it to the to where

0:46:07.160 --> 0:46:09.920
<v Speaker 7>I believe it can go, is I mean, this guy's

0:46:09.960 --> 0:46:13.320
<v Speaker 7>the limit with that program. We've had so much feedback

0:46:13.400 --> 0:46:16.760
<v Speaker 7>people wanting to be involved in it, so many ex

0:46:16.880 --> 0:46:20.320
<v Speaker 7>caddies that just talk about how caddying was the number

0:46:20.360 --> 0:46:22.880
<v Speaker 7>one job they've had their entire life and they couldn't

0:46:22.920 --> 0:46:24.040
<v Speaker 7>imagine a better.

0:46:23.920 --> 0:46:24.760
<v Speaker 6>Job as a kid.

0:46:25.239 --> 0:46:27.799
<v Speaker 7>So I think that adding you know, adding some more

0:46:27.880 --> 0:46:32.080
<v Speaker 7>leadership aspects, being able to get the kids up at

0:46:32.120 --> 0:46:34.439
<v Speaker 7>the course more and more and more and more, that's

0:46:34.520 --> 0:46:37.239
<v Speaker 7>really my huge goal for it. I mean, building this

0:46:37.320 --> 0:46:39.759
<v Speaker 7>clubhouse for them to have kind of a home up

0:46:39.760 --> 0:46:43.160
<v Speaker 7>at Goat Hill will be something that will take it

0:46:43.200 --> 0:46:46.760
<v Speaker 7>to the next level for sure, but you know, creating

0:46:46.800 --> 0:46:49.880
<v Speaker 7>that experience more. I want them to learn more lessons

0:46:49.920 --> 0:46:52.040
<v Speaker 7>that I've learned through golf and that we all have

0:46:53.000 --> 0:46:56.759
<v Speaker 7>and kind of exedite that process through a summer if possible.

0:46:57.680 --> 0:47:00.360
<v Speaker 7>That's really my goal with it. You know, I'd like

0:47:00.440 --> 0:47:02.480
<v Speaker 7>to teach some of the stuff that maybe they don't

0:47:02.560 --> 0:47:05.440
<v Speaker 7>learn in school and be able to use golf to

0:47:05.480 --> 0:47:07.040
<v Speaker 7>be able to teach them that stuff.

0:47:07.920 --> 0:47:10.719
<v Speaker 1>Needless to say, Crop has been an incredible addition to

0:47:10.760 --> 0:47:14.279
<v Speaker 1>the Goat community. Now back to the wishbone brawl, the

0:47:14.360 --> 0:47:19.800
<v Speaker 1>crowd and the kids and the dogs and you know what,

0:47:19.920 --> 0:47:21.880
<v Speaker 1>you know, what what do you have in terms of

0:47:21.920 --> 0:47:25.359
<v Speaker 1>information for people listening in terms of what time they

0:47:25.360 --> 0:47:29.360
<v Speaker 1>should get there and parking and is there some logistical

0:47:29.400 --> 0:47:31.880
<v Speaker 1>stuff you'd like to share with anybody who listens?

0:47:33.000 --> 0:47:38.200
<v Speaker 5>No, No, yeah, I will, well I will okay, So yeah,

0:47:38.239 --> 0:47:40.560
<v Speaker 5>I would say, you know, I think the gates open

0:47:40.680 --> 0:47:44.360
<v Speaker 5>nine point thirty ten o'clock. I mean we tee it

0:47:44.440 --> 0:47:48.120
<v Speaker 5>up at noon. We're pretty clock. We're pretty on that right,

0:47:48.239 --> 0:47:52.080
<v Speaker 5>usually typically pretty close. The guys will be hitting balls

0:47:52.080 --> 0:47:54.680
<v Speaker 5>on the range and warming up, and you'll be acting

0:47:54.760 --> 0:47:55.360
<v Speaker 5>with them.

0:47:56.040 --> 0:47:57.320
<v Speaker 6>About eleven.

0:47:59.440 --> 0:48:01.719
<v Speaker 5>The kids will have a little contest to hit the gong,

0:48:03.480 --> 0:48:05.400
<v Speaker 5>and they also are going to be coloring golf. The

0:48:05.480 --> 0:48:08.479
<v Speaker 5>little kids will be doing golf balls, coloring or something

0:48:08.560 --> 0:48:12.400
<v Speaker 5>like that. And then parking wise, you know, we don't

0:48:12.400 --> 0:48:16.200
<v Speaker 5>have a ton of parking, so we do have enough

0:48:16.200 --> 0:48:20.719
<v Speaker 5>for the first probably a couple hundred cars, which is

0:48:21.120 --> 0:48:25.719
<v Speaker 5>fair about so I would either carpool or take an

0:48:25.840 --> 0:48:32.040
<v Speaker 5>uber or park in the in the houses directly north

0:48:32.080 --> 0:48:35.440
<v Speaker 5>of the golf course on Greenbrier, there's a couple of streets.

0:48:36.000 --> 0:48:39.480
<v Speaker 5>There's also a church that we have about a block

0:48:39.520 --> 0:48:44.280
<v Speaker 5>away or two blocks away, has a huge parking lot,

0:48:44.520 --> 0:48:47.719
<v Speaker 5>so that's an easy walk. And we will have a

0:48:47.760 --> 0:48:52.000
<v Speaker 5>gate open on the eighteenth holl if you park in

0:48:52.000 --> 0:48:56.920
<v Speaker 5>that neighborhood or the church, super easy access. We'll have

0:48:57.520 --> 0:49:03.320
<v Speaker 5>some butody, you know, man at that gate and otherwise

0:49:03.360 --> 0:49:05.759
<v Speaker 5>take an ober. Then you can party and go back

0:49:05.800 --> 0:49:06.400
<v Speaker 5>when you want to.

0:49:06.560 --> 0:49:09.840
<v Speaker 1>You know, if you have thirteen hundred people, a thousand adults,

0:49:09.880 --> 0:49:13.480
<v Speaker 1>three hundred kids, and probably one hundred dougs, that's that's

0:49:13.480 --> 0:49:14.280
<v Speaker 1>that's full house.

0:49:15.640 --> 0:49:20.600
<v Speaker 5>Well, it's going to be a full house. It's kind

0:49:20.640 --> 0:49:21.640
<v Speaker 5>of be a full house.

0:49:29.440 --> 0:49:33.239
<v Speaker 1>And lastly, some final reflections from everyone involved. We start

0:49:33.280 --> 0:49:39.279
<v Speaker 1>with Ashworth. This community concept and what you've done. You know,

0:49:41.000 --> 0:49:45.400
<v Speaker 1>like you know the park mentality where you happen to

0:49:45.440 --> 0:49:52.680
<v Speaker 1>play golf and you know, this cultivation of everybody feels

0:49:52.719 --> 0:49:56.800
<v Speaker 1>like they're part of something, you know, bringing people together,

0:49:57.120 --> 0:50:01.480
<v Speaker 1>the linking of souls, but also you know, the saving

0:50:01.520 --> 0:50:04.200
<v Speaker 1>of a community asset, right like you know that that

0:50:04.840 --> 0:50:08.359
<v Speaker 1>it all kind of feels like on days like Saturday,

0:50:09.280 --> 0:50:16.600
<v Speaker 1>it's it's this it's this collision of all the good things.

0:50:17.400 --> 0:50:19.799
<v Speaker 1>You know, it's got to feel like one of those

0:50:19.920 --> 0:50:24.640
<v Speaker 1>days where you kind of take a second stop, look

0:50:24.719 --> 0:50:30.560
<v Speaker 1>around and is it days like that that that keep

0:50:30.640 --> 0:50:34.200
<v Speaker 1>you going on some of those hard days when you

0:50:34.200 --> 0:50:38.360
<v Speaker 1>know you're dealing with all the the turmoil and the

0:50:38.400 --> 0:50:42.160
<v Speaker 1>troubles that come with managing a facility like that or

0:50:42.280 --> 0:50:45.520
<v Speaker 1>life in general, is it a day like a wishbone

0:50:45.520 --> 0:50:48.480
<v Speaker 1>brawl day that makes you kind of soak it up

0:50:48.480 --> 0:50:50.160
<v Speaker 1>and keep it moving forward.

0:50:51.880 --> 0:50:54.759
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, it's definitely one that's definitely a big day that

0:50:54.920 --> 0:50:57.600
<v Speaker 5>just kind of just it's such a big you know,

0:50:57.680 --> 0:51:03.920
<v Speaker 5>it's such a big energy and to see the community

0:51:03.960 --> 0:51:09.680
<v Speaker 5>come together and everybody enjoy it and be part of it.

0:51:09.400 --> 0:51:11.839
<v Speaker 5>It is It is one of those days that kind

0:51:11.840 --> 0:51:17.359
<v Speaker 5>of just more than just makes it all worthwhile. I mean,

0:51:17.400 --> 0:51:19.080
<v Speaker 5>it's just like, you know, the world's in such a

0:51:19.120 --> 0:51:22.680
<v Speaker 5>crazy place right now, and to have a place like

0:51:22.760 --> 0:51:26.480
<v Speaker 5>Goat Hill Park or any golf course really, I mean,

0:51:26.600 --> 0:51:32.319
<v Speaker 5>golf is really such an important aspect of you know,

0:51:32.400 --> 0:51:35.320
<v Speaker 5>I guess our lives right because we can get away

0:51:35.320 --> 0:51:39.080
<v Speaker 5>to the golf course and to have an affordable sort

0:51:39.120 --> 0:51:42.799
<v Speaker 5>of situation like we do with the Goat for everybody.

0:51:43.400 --> 0:51:46.640
<v Speaker 5>You know, I think mental health it plays such a

0:51:46.719 --> 0:51:49.400
<v Speaker 5>key role in that, And I can't imagine if we

0:51:49.480 --> 0:51:50.960
<v Speaker 5>didn't have a place to go to like that.

0:51:51.960 --> 0:51:54.560
<v Speaker 1>The layovout twins on the big picture, the deeper meaning

0:51:54.600 --> 0:51:58.120
<v Speaker 1>of Saturday. It starts with Jasmine dan Jenne. Do you

0:51:58.160 --> 0:52:03.160
<v Speaker 1>also see an opportunity to try to positively impact some

0:52:03.160 --> 0:52:06.400
<v Speaker 1>some you know, not just young women but kids in general.

0:52:07.560 --> 0:52:11.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I think it's so cool, like how we're given

0:52:11.239 --> 0:52:14.440
<v Speaker 2>the opportunities to be in a position where we can

0:52:14.440 --> 0:52:19.520
<v Speaker 2>inspire younger kids. And knowing we started kind of late,

0:52:20.160 --> 0:52:24.000
<v Speaker 2>but like it doesn't matter, like when you start, and

0:52:24.560 --> 0:52:27.239
<v Speaker 2>I think it'll be really cool to see them and

0:52:28.040 --> 0:52:32.520
<v Speaker 2>just make make them our fans. Yeah, And I think

0:52:32.560 --> 0:52:37.719
<v Speaker 2>that it's just super amazing that we were alumni of

0:52:37.800 --> 0:52:41.560
<v Speaker 2>the program that this is supporting, and so I hope

0:52:41.560 --> 0:52:44.600
<v Speaker 2>that they can see that we're just a product of

0:52:44.640 --> 0:52:46.399
<v Speaker 2>this amazing program and.

0:52:46.640 --> 0:52:48.080
<v Speaker 9>That they can be inspired by that.

0:52:48.560 --> 0:52:51.000
<v Speaker 2>But I'm just gonna try to have fun and smile

0:52:51.040 --> 0:52:54.359
<v Speaker 2>a lot and and try to try my best inspire them.

0:52:54.760 --> 0:52:56.160
<v Speaker 1>All of it is there for you. It's going to

0:52:56.200 --> 0:52:59.440
<v Speaker 1>be a beautiful day. The golf course is in great shape.

0:53:00.200 --> 0:53:05.600
<v Speaker 1>And again, you know, your advantages are each other, your caddies,

0:53:06.360 --> 0:53:09.960
<v Speaker 1>your knowledge of the golf course, you know, the crowd

0:53:10.040 --> 0:53:13.840
<v Speaker 1>support and the home crowd, and you guys are playing damn.

0:53:13.600 --> 0:53:17.920
<v Speaker 9>Good golf right, trying our best.

0:53:18.400 --> 0:53:21.920
<v Speaker 1>Here's Colin Featherstone on how and why the Wishbone Brawl matters.

0:53:22.400 --> 0:53:26.680
<v Speaker 13>Well, I think when you get a superstar like Xander involved,

0:53:26.760 --> 0:53:29.920
<v Speaker 13>and then you've got another superstar like Freddie Couples involved

0:53:29.920 --> 0:53:32.759
<v Speaker 13>the last couple of years, and then Jeff Ogilvie and

0:53:32.840 --> 0:53:34.920
<v Speaker 13>Dean Wilson and the names that have come through here,

0:53:35.000 --> 0:53:38.760
<v Speaker 13>Charlie Hoffman and Chris Riley, and those are all guys

0:53:38.840 --> 0:53:44.319
<v Speaker 13>that resonate locally and nationally, so to be able to

0:53:44.320 --> 0:53:48.719
<v Speaker 13>come out to a place like Goat Hill, where, like

0:53:48.760 --> 0:53:50.960
<v Speaker 13>I said, it's so casual, it's just a fun place

0:53:51.000 --> 0:53:51.200
<v Speaker 13>to be.

0:53:51.320 --> 0:53:54.160
<v Speaker 10>It's such a great walk and watch.

0:53:54.000 --> 0:53:57.480
<v Speaker 13>These guys hit for Simmon Woods, which you never see anymore,

0:53:58.040 --> 0:53:59.560
<v Speaker 13>and you get to hear the sound off of a

0:53:59.600 --> 0:54:02.400
<v Speaker 13>person would and you get to be close and it's intimate.

0:54:02.440 --> 0:54:03.360
<v Speaker 6>It's just that group.

0:54:05.640 --> 0:54:08.200
<v Speaker 13>It's not surprising to me that it's grown into what

0:54:08.200 --> 0:54:09.000
<v Speaker 13>what it's grown into.

0:54:10.040 --> 0:54:11.280
<v Speaker 10>And then to top.

0:54:11.120 --> 0:54:13.919
<v Speaker 13>It off, all the proceeds go to North County Junior

0:54:13.920 --> 0:54:18.439
<v Speaker 13>Golf Association, which is in my opinion, a great tour

0:54:18.520 --> 0:54:23.800
<v Speaker 13>because it gives opportunities to kids to to play tournament

0:54:23.800 --> 0:54:30.080
<v Speaker 13>golf that is becoming increasingly harder, I think for you know,

0:54:30.719 --> 0:54:31.960
<v Speaker 13>a regular parent.

0:54:31.800 --> 0:54:33.960
<v Speaker 10>To pay for financially.

0:54:34.080 --> 0:54:37.600
<v Speaker 13>And so it's it's just a it's a good cause,

0:54:37.640 --> 0:54:41.080
<v Speaker 13>a really fun day and I'm proud to be a

0:54:41.080 --> 0:54:41.520
<v Speaker 13>part of it.

0:54:42.120 --> 0:54:44.440
<v Speaker 1>And here's will crop on the evolution of the course

0:54:44.520 --> 0:54:45.240
<v Speaker 1>and the cause.

0:54:45.840 --> 0:54:47.480
<v Speaker 7>I mean, how many people are going to go out

0:54:47.520 --> 0:54:49.960
<v Speaker 7>to Goat Hill on Saturday and be like, holy cow,

0:54:50.040 --> 0:54:52.440
<v Speaker 7>what has happened in a year out here or in

0:54:52.600 --> 0:54:55.640
<v Speaker 7>six months or in you know, one week with the

0:54:55.680 --> 0:54:59.319
<v Speaker 7>new fire pit, it's like something's always changing out there.

0:54:59.400 --> 0:55:03.759
<v Speaker 7>And I think that that's that's that magnet. I mean,

0:55:03.880 --> 0:55:07.960
<v Speaker 7>people just love to see from the owner down putting

0:55:08.080 --> 0:55:11.279
<v Speaker 7>in you know, the hard work and effort, and it's

0:55:11.360 --> 0:55:16.000
<v Speaker 7>not glamorous work, but it's for such a greater cause

0:55:16.120 --> 0:55:18.759
<v Speaker 7>that I think it's just I mean, it's why I

0:55:18.800 --> 0:55:19.840
<v Speaker 7>got attracted here.

0:55:21.400 --> 0:55:22.799
<v Speaker 1>And you gotta love a new fire pit.

0:55:23.760 --> 0:55:26.480
<v Speaker 6>Gotta yeah, yeah, gotta love a new fire pit.

0:55:26.960 --> 0:55:30.520
<v Speaker 1>And finally, Dave Emrick, Yeah, we go it to.

<v Speaker 11>out and just got in and dug it out. And

0:55:42.360 --> 0:55:46.040

<v Speaker 11>you do.

0:56:06.600 --> 0:56:10.239
<v Speaker 1>Of course, Well no, everybody, you know. I think what's

0:56:10.320 --> 0:56:13.880
<v Speaker 1>really beautiful is, you know, almost everybody has an attitude

0:56:13.880 --> 0:56:17.239
<v Speaker 1>of gratitude. And that's that is the you know, it's

0:56:17.400 --> 0:56:19.719
<v Speaker 1>it starts at the top and people like you and

0:56:20.360 --> 0:56:23.560
<v Speaker 1>John and and uh and the people like Laz and

0:56:23.920 --> 0:56:27.200
<v Speaker 1>Fernie and Jay Bird and Hunter and you know, the

0:56:27.239 --> 0:56:30.080
<v Speaker 1>list just keeps going on and on. There's nobody who's

0:56:30.120 --> 0:56:33.600
<v Speaker 1>not trying to pitch in and participate. H And you know,

0:56:33.760 --> 0:56:35.839
<v Speaker 1>the beautiful thing is when John says, hey, I need

0:56:35.840 --> 0:56:38.600
<v Speaker 1>some help, that's it. That's all he has to say

0:56:38.680 --> 0:56:40.520
<v Speaker 1>is I need some help. And then the next thing

0:56:40.560 --> 0:56:44.480
<v Speaker 1>he has is help. And and it's unconditional. It's unconditional

0:56:44.760 --> 0:56:45.800
<v Speaker 1>in so many ways.

0:56:46.120 --> 0:56:49.360
<v Speaker 11>So yeah, it's a it's you know, it's just really

0:56:49.480 --> 0:56:51.359
<v Speaker 11>it's I think a little bit of a footprint of how.

0:56:51.320 --> 0:56:51.759
<v Speaker 8>It should be.

0:56:51.800 --> 0:56:52.000
