And you know, got the F sixteen behind me. 82 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,000 Speaker 4: So it was an F sixteen fighter pilot and a 83 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 4: PGA Glass PGA Go Professional. You know, one on one 84 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 4: was my dream, but I had no idea how those 85 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 4: would ultimately come together. And the short version of the 86 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 4: inspiration was got back from my second of three combat 87 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 4: tours of duty in Iraq. It was actually a commercial 88 00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 4: airliner with identical twin brothers, Corporal brock Bucklan who'd been 89 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:50,400 Speaker 4: killed in Iraq, and his twin brother Brad was bringing 90 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:54,360 Speaker 4: him back and brought and a four year old son 91 00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:57,840 Speaker 4: and said, I'd just gotten back. I had another tour 92 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 4: of duty scheduled, and I'm the father of five kids, 93 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 4: five daughters, and I'm like, man, what what happens if 94 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 4: something happens to me? To g Dub's point, the family 95 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:10,359 Speaker 4: that is left behind on the field of battle and 96 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:14,039 Speaker 4: felt up calling from God to do something. And you know, 97 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:18,720 Speaker 4: it's a cool anthem that I picked up in pilot training. 98 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 4: You get four rides in an F sixteen with an instructor. 99 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 4: In your fifth ride ist solo here you wash out 100 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:26,839 Speaker 4: of the program. So I'm at Luke Air Force Base 101 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:30,600 Speaker 4: and never forget landing from my solo ride in the 102 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:32,920 Speaker 4: F sixteen, and you know, I roll up this big 103 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,359 Speaker 4: bubble canopy and take a deep breath and I just 104 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 4: get this gift from God and it's go before you're ready. 105 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 4: And I really think that, man, that's like the DNA 106 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 4: that ties greatness together at every level. And for me, 107 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:47,880 Speaker 4: it's been my anthem ever since. And you know, I 108 00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 4: walked off that airplane with the Bucklands, and I mean 109 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,240 Speaker 4: I have no money, I have no influence.

Dan talked about wearing a uniform. You have 179 00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 2: to wear a uniform in the military, but when you 180 00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 2: wear the Volition clothes, does it feel like you are 181 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:43,719 Speaker 2: wearing a uniform that says something about your beliefs and 182 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,520 Speaker 2: the way you feel about the people that make the 183 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 2: ultimate sacrifice for us? 184 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:50,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, you know exactly that right. Our goal in military 185 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 5: to serve others and pollition is a brand of clothing, 186 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 5: a lifestyle that I can continue that service even though 187 00:09:56,960 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 5: I'm not wearing my boots and I'm not wearing the keys, right, 188 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 5: so I can serve through the game of golf.

You know, every everyone in 192 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 5: golf is an independent contractor, so everyone's building their own 193 00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:14,840 Speaker 5: specific brand. 194 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:16,720 Speaker 6: And for me, coming out and coming out. 195 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:18,920 Speaker 5: Of active duty, getting to meet Dan when I was 196 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 5: still in college, and then you know, the transition into 197 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 5: this playing, playing lifestyle, it was just. 198 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 6: The perfect fit for me. 199 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:29,080 Speaker 5: And you know, we wear Volition on playing days, not 200 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 5: playing days. You know, it's it is a hyper patriotic brand, 201 00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 5: but we choose, we choose, We use our Volition to 202 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:37,840 Speaker 5: choose the life that I want to live and services 203 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:40,240 Speaker 5: that lifestyle, and we're going to continue doing it, whether 204 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:42,840 Speaker 5: it's golf, whether it's you know, military time, or just 205 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:46,319 Speaker 5: in our everyday life. 206 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 2: One of the cool things Dan that I like about, 207 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 2: you know, the partnership is you've tried to implement different 208 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:58,559 Speaker 2: parts of your background. I mean, there's a lot of 209 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 2: airplane and a lot of things on the clothing that 210 00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 2: are very much kind of the world that you still 211 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:08,680 Speaker 2: live in it and spent a bunch of your life. 212 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:12,360 Speaker 2: And how much are you involved in the design part 213 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:14,560 Speaker 2: or do you do they send it to you and 214 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:15,760 Speaker 2: you say, yeah, I like that. 215 00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:19,520 Speaker 4: They probably say too much. But you know, Bob and Dan, 216 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 4: you know the bosses if you will there, we've always 217 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 4: been like, hey, let's let's bring service fighter jets to 218 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:30,720 Speaker 4: the game of golf. Let's be disruptive, let's be who 219 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:33,160 Speaker 4: we are and make sure that when it's in a 220 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 4: golf shop it doesn't look like anything else, and people 221 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:40,560 Speaker 4: can pick something that represents who they are. And you know, 222 00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 4: I go back, like the trinity of life for me 223 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:46,679 Speaker 4: every day is passion, aptitude, impact. And you look at 224 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:51,199 Speaker 4: the Cobra Puma team and obviously they love it, they're 225 00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 4: good at it. But the beautiful thing about Militia in 226 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 4: America and what brings us together on this call is 227 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 4: it has an impact. And there's no other brand of 228 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:03,560 Speaker 4: clothing you can put on as a golfer, really, not 229 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 4: many brands at all that has an impact. And I 230 00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:08,760 Speaker 4: think that's why it feels so good. To grab it 231 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:11,600 Speaker 4: off the hangar and be like, hey, I love it, 232 00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:13,280 Speaker 4: but I'm making a difference today. 233 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 2: Yan, how do you find the families to support? I mean, 234 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 2: what is the process that goes through this? I think 235 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 2: for everyone listening, I think it would be interesting for 236 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 2: them to understand the process of how you all help 237 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 2: these families in need. 238 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 4: Yep So A number one, it's educational scholarships to spouses 239 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 4: and children who had a love one either killed or 240 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 4: disabled in combat or as a first responder. We added 241 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 4: first responders last year in this country. Nine to one 242 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 4: one is dialed two hundred and forty million times. That's 243 00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 4: every six seconds they're coming to rescue us. And until 244 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:54,040 Speaker 4: last year there was no nonprofit providing education to their 245 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 4: family members of falling and disabled first responder. So passionate 246 00:12:57,520 --> 00:13:01,720 Speaker 4: about adding them and they find us. We have nineteen 247 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 4: thousand qualified applicants wanting to go to school next year 248 00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 4: at Folds right now, and so we wake up before 249 00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:11,679 Speaker 4: the sun rise every day and we get after it 250 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:15,960 Speaker 4: and we'll probably fund about eleven thousand of those. And 251 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 4: so super important. If people want to contribute, obviously, you 252 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:22,920 Speaker 4: know they can visit Cobra Puma buy some Volition America. 253 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 4: That's a great way to give back, or our website 254 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:29,280 Speaker 4: Foldsvonnor dot org to make a donation to help send 255 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:31,680 Speaker 4: the families that want to go to school this year, 256 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 4: give them that gift of an education. 257 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:36,959 Speaker 2: Yle, have you noticed when you're playing, you know, all 258 00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 2: over the US in tournaments and stuff, if you noticed 259 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,000 Speaker 2: people come up to you and talk to you about 260 00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:46,120 Speaker 2: volition and the clothes you're wearing from the military, from 261 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:47,240 Speaker 2: you know, first responders. 262 00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 5: Have you noticed that absolutely, not only the volition mine, 263 00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:52,719 Speaker 5: but just folds of honor, right, I think a lot 264 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:56,560 Speaker 5: of people know that volition is you know, directly tied 265 00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:58,079 Speaker 5: to the folds of honor, and the word is out 266 00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:00,600 Speaker 5: and that's nine times out of ten people will come out, 267 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 5: come up to me and say and then tell me 268 00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:04,240 Speaker 5: I was in the military for a while. 269 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:05,679 Speaker 6: It's an immediate connection. 270 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:08,320 Speaker 5: And honestly, that group of people that does come up 271 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 5: and talk to me about it, I know that we're 272 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:12,480 Speaker 5: going to have like a commonality and have a common. 273 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 6: Goal, which is you know, to serve others or to 274 00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:16,440 Speaker 6: have served others in a past life. 275 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:19,000 Speaker 5: So it's just an awesome community that at this you know, 276 00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 5: this brand is built and it's just, you know, very 277 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 5: thankfully part of it. 278 00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 2: You know, Kyle, all the sacrifices that you have to 279 00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 2: make to be in the military and what it takes 280 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,320 Speaker 2: to do that. It is very similar to what happens 281 00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 2: to professional athletes. You're now trying to play professionally. What 282 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 2: have you taken from your military training that you feel 283 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:42,360 Speaker 2: like has helped you from a golf standpoint, Yeah, you. 284 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:44,400 Speaker 5: Know, I think discipline perspective where the two things will 285 00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:46,520 Speaker 5: stand out the most, right, the discipline to go into 286 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:49,840 Speaker 5: a task knowing that you might fail in the short term, 287 00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 5: but knowing that you have you know, the strength and 288 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 5: the ability to come back again and find another day. 289 00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 5: Golf is Golf is a tough start. You're not going 290 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:01,360 Speaker 5: to win every day. But if you keep stepping up 291 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 5: to the play, keep doing you know, your day, keep 292 00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:07,800 Speaker 5: accomplishing small daily objectives, you're going to eventually reach your goal. 293 00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:09,320 Speaker 6: And I feel like that's where I'm at now. 294 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 5: I think the military gave me a unique ability to 295 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:15,480 Speaker 5: continue stepping up to the plate. So you know, that's 296 00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 5: your discipline, your perspective, right, Golf is a great game. 297 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 5: I'm so thankful for being out here so thankful for 298 00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 5: the opportunities it's given me, but knowing that it is. 299 00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:24,400 Speaker 6: Just a part of life, right. Life. 300 00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:26,520 Speaker 5: Life is much grander than the game of golf, and 301 00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 5: that's where we get our goal of service through the 302 00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:28,720 Speaker 5: game of golf. 303 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 6: Service. 304 00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:31,560 Speaker 5: If you live a life of service, it's going to 305 00:15:31,560 --> 00:15:34,160 Speaker 5: be a fulfilled life. Gary can probably attest to this 306 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:36,040 Speaker 5: more than I can. You can win as many terms 307 00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:37,760 Speaker 5: as you like, but if you're not fulfilled in your 308 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 5: personal life, you know you're not going to be fulfilled 309 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 5: in the game of golf. So that's the perspective it's 310 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:45,120 Speaker 5: given me, so discipline and perspective. 311 00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:46,760 Speaker 6: Or my answer to that question. 312 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:52,320 Speaker 2: Gary, you've been through some tough times physically. I think 313 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 2: everybody knows that you had some brain issues. I watched 314 00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 2: the ESPN a little documentary they did, which was just 315 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:02,080 Speaker 2: it was tough to watch, bro. I mean, it was 316 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 2: really tough, and I don't think those of us around you. 317 00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:07,920 Speaker 2: I mean, I remember when I found out that you 318 00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 2: were going in for brain so I think i'd seen 319 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 2: you like two weeks earlier here at the Floridian. You 320 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 2: were fine, and then we were at a tournament and 321 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:19,440 Speaker 2: DJ and I were going gem's gonna have brain surgery. 322 00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 2: I mean, it was certainly a shock to all of us, 323 00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:28,680 Speaker 2: but that uncertainty it must be very very difficult to 324 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 2: go through mentally for you, but also for your family. 325 00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 2: And in what we were talking about with with Dan 326 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 2: and the work they do at Folds of Honor, that 327 00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 2: that became real to you. There there was maybe something 328 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:45,280 Speaker 2: that was going to happen to you that you didn't 329 00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:47,040 Speaker 2: know if you were going to be around for your 330 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:47,800 Speaker 2: for your children. 331 00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was obviously a journey. It still is, and 332 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:54,960 Speaker 3: there's still a long road ahead. But I rely on 333 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:58,080 Speaker 3: still some advice. My rookie year on PJ Tour or 334 00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 3: two thousand and nine, I blew out my show, had 335 00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:03,480 Speaker 3: shoulder surgery, and it was obviously a dream to get 336 00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:06,240 Speaker 3: to where to get there, and then to have that 337 00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:10,080 Speaker 3: taken away from me so quickly, and Noonan calls me 338 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:13,440 Speaker 3: and gives me some advice, and I still have it 339 00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 3: written down and I still think about it, and I 340 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:16,679 Speaker 3: thought about it a lot through this journey I went 341 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:18,760 Speaker 3: through the last year, and he told me a delay 342 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 3: is not a denial. Just because my dreams and everything's 343 00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:24,200 Speaker 3: delayed right now doesn't mean I'm not going to get there. 344 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:29,600 Speaker 3: And I thought about that a lot when everything was 345 00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:32,679 Speaker 3: seamlessly being taken away from me, and the thoughts that 346 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:36,440 Speaker 3: it could be taken away and just because everything's delayed 347 00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:39,639 Speaker 3: because I'm going through this process doesn't mean I'm not 348 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:43,440 Speaker 3: going to get back. And I wasn't able to feel 349 00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 3: that every day, but it was in the back of 350 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:47,040 Speaker 3: my mind. I had it written down and I saw 351 00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:49,800 Speaker 3: it and I remembered it, and it's great advice. I've 352 00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:52,119 Speaker 3: given that advice to some young kids. I've given that 353 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:55,160 Speaker 3: advice to people that are going through hard times. God 354 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:59,919 Speaker 3: has a plan. You focus on the positive and realize 355 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 3: you'll have the strength to get through this. And the 356 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:05,960 Speaker 3: biggest deal for me, I was supported by amazing people 357 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:10,840 Speaker 3: around me, from my family, my team, my sponsors. You know, 358 00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:12,840 Speaker 3: it's there's a big group of people I have behind 359 00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:15,159 Speaker 3: me that were giving me the support that I needed 360 00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:18,000 Speaker 3: because what I really realized through this process is you 361 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 3: can't do it alone. And I had to seek out nasshelp, 362 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:23,359 Speaker 3: you know, I mean my whole life, people asked me 363 00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:25,359 Speaker 3: when they need something, they asked me. I was the 364 00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:28,160 Speaker 3: one seeking help, and fortunately I had the right people 365 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:28,800 Speaker 3: to give that to me. 366 00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:31,600 Speaker 2: You know, how much did you miss golf when when 367 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:34,720 Speaker 2: when things were really really dark? You know you're back 368 00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:39,600 Speaker 2: playing now. Did it give you some perspective on you know, 369 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 2: what you had done in the past, and and have 370 00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:47,040 Speaker 2: you come back with a new kind of perspective on 371 00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:49,679 Speaker 2: the game and life. 372 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 3: Really, there's no doubt about it. I mean, I always 373 00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:53,800 Speaker 3: dreamed since I since I was able to start dreaming, 374 00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:56,240 Speaker 3: I wanted to be a professional athlete. Now golf was 375 00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:59,080 Speaker 3: the third on that list. You know, basketball was first, 376 00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 3: baseball was second. Golf was the one that gave me 377 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:05,879 Speaker 3: that opportunity. And I didn't know if I really loved it. 378 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:07,280 Speaker 3: I knew I liked it, I knew I was good 379 00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:10,000 Speaker 3: at it. Now that's it. Well, when it's really now 380 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:12,560 Speaker 3: could be taken away from you, you realize how much 381 00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 3: it means to you. And I absolutely love this. I 382 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:17,560 Speaker 3: love being out here, I love being around the guys, 383 00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 3: and I don't think I enjoyed that as much until 384 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:24,879 Speaker 3: this past year. And I have a completely new perspective 385 00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:28,480 Speaker 3: on everything, in the perspective on trying to improve each day, 386 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:31,760 Speaker 3: and obviously the perspective on what I've been able to 387 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,040 Speaker 3: accomplish that. If you would have told me that when 388 00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:35,639 Speaker 3: I was seven years old, I would have taken it 389 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 3: and ran. When you're out here, when you win, you 390 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 3: want to continue to win, and you want the next thing. 391 00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:43,679 Speaker 3: It's always the next thing. You don't really have the 392 00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:46,399 Speaker 3: time to sit back and realize what you've done and 393 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:49,440 Speaker 3: what you've been able to accomplish. And I've definitely been 394 00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:52,240 Speaker 3: able to receive that.

I got into rut. We're really trying to 445 00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:39,760 Speaker 5: play the golf swing instead of playing the game. And 446 00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:41,840 Speaker 5: so the end of last year we started trending in 447 00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:45,320 Speaker 5: the right direction. Made a couple of changes.

I think 454 00:22:57,480 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 6: I think it's coming. 455 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:00,679 Speaker 5: But we just got to keep doing our business and 456 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:03,359 Speaker 5: keep our keep our nose down and keep plugging along. 457 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:05,520 Speaker 5: But but it's been an awesome time and and honestly, 458 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:08,840 Speaker 5: we're we're about to have our first kids, so we're excited, nervous, 459 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 5: you know, all all the emotions in one. 460 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 6: But it's been nice with. 461 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,200 Speaker 5: The scheduling, so this is the first What people don't 462 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:16,720 Speaker 5: talk about is, you know, you go from the corn 463 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:18,080 Speaker 5: Ferry Tour to the PGA Tour. 464 00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:19,760 Speaker 6: You're kind of at the mercy of the schedule. 465 00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:22,240 Speaker 5: You've got to play as much as possible and it 466 00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:24,240 Speaker 5: just leads to a lot of travel. So this, you know, 467 00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:27,560 Speaker 5: kind of broken up start to the corn Ferry year 468 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:29,320 Speaker 5: has been really nice.

Well, I don't have 490 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:24,840 Speaker 3: that option when i'm playing, so I've been the last 491 00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:28,360 Speaker 3: two weeks really, I've been pushing through it, practicing when 492 00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:31,360 Speaker 3: I don't feel well, doing a little more after the round. 493 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 3: You know, I just didn't have the energy to do 494 00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:35,440 Speaker 3: it earlier in the year, and I'm starting to push 495 00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:38,760 Speaker 3: through it a little bit.

Dan. 521 00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:05,359 Speaker 2: As I'm sitting here in my office, I've got a 522 00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:09,440 Speaker 2: picture on my desk of when Brooks won his second 523 00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:12,320 Speaker 2: US Open in a row at Shinnecock and I was 524 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:16,719 Speaker 2: wearing Volition that day. I had the Camo Cambo hoodie on, 525 00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:19,679 Speaker 2: I had the Volition hat. And so the next Major 526 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:21,560 Speaker 2: he played, I wore Volition and he didn't win. So 527 00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 2: I think I was going to jinx it and maybe 528 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 2: go again with US Open this year. I wore Volition 529 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 2: last year. It's kind of a thing with me all 530 00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:33,879 Speaker 2: the US Opens. Brooks won and I started wearing it 531 00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:36,200 Speaker 2: and I thought it was good luck. So I'm gonna 532 00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:38,800 Speaker 2: keep doing it.
