1 00:00:01,280 --> 00:00:05,640 Speaker 1: Good are you And just absolutely love that scene out 2 00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:10,640 Speaker 1: of practice yesterday with around Yeah, a lot of fun 3 00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:17,560 Speaker 1: I'm from you. Your perspective. Yeah, obviously a little bit 4 00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:18,840 Speaker 1: different than in the game scenario. 5 00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:20,520 Speaker 2: There's not gonna be that many people into the field 6 00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:22,400 Speaker 2: or else we'd probably get a penalty or something like that. 7 00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:24,720 Speaker 1: But uh uh it's a good ability for us to just. 8 00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:27,280 Speaker 2: Kind of hone into uh kind of getting in our 9 00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:30,120 Speaker 2: little bubble. Uh So no matter if there's one hundred 10 00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:32,080 Speaker 2: guys around you at practice or there's no one on 11 00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:35,120 Speaker 2: around you on uh on game day, you're still in 12 00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:38,240 Speaker 2: like kind of the same mentality, same process, just going 13 00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:40,600 Speaker 2: through the same steps that I always do. But it 14 00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:43,360 Speaker 2: just adds that other layer of kind of mental fortitude 15 00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:48,960 Speaker 2: for us. So Yeah, kind of came in uh to 16 00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:51,600 Speaker 2: camp a little rusty, Uh, just getting back into the 17 00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:53,960 Speaker 2: process of getting in the operation with Joe and Bryce 18 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:57,200 Speaker 2: and uh ever since probably start or fourth practice, I've 19 00:00:57,200 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 2: really been getting back into my my routine, hitting the 20 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 2: ball like I know I should be able to, and 21 00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:04,760 Speaker 2: I feel like I'm I'm making the most out of 22 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:07,160 Speaker 2: my opportunity here. So just to go back to that 23 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:10,399 Speaker 2: drill yesterday, have you ever had a drill like that before, 24 00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:11,319 Speaker 2: done anything like that. 25 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:12,160 Speaker 1: Before in practice. 26 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, different places I've been have done it all the 27 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:17,640 Speaker 2: way from college all the way to the NFL. Some 28 00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:20,720 Speaker 2: of them are more public obviously, like yesterday's practice. Some 29 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 2: of them are a little bit more just at a 30 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 2: normal day of practice. But also some of the camps 31 00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 2: that we go to in the off season, there's a 32 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:32,480 Speaker 2: different coaches around the the the United States that do 33 00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:35,040 Speaker 2: different camps and stuff like that, and some of them 34 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:37,240 Speaker 2: will have little competitions like that that we do. So 35 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:41,840 Speaker 2: it's something new, but obviously a little bit different for practice. 36 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:46,200 Speaker 2: But like I said, fun drill, great opportunity, but just 37 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:47,840 Speaker 2: kind of helps us to lock into the things that 38 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:48,919 Speaker 2: we've already been doing in practice. 39 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 1: Anyway, So recording in the operation, we've been with a 40 00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 1: number of different long stoppers and ticket actively a get it, 41 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:00,680 Speaker 1: what's the game? 42 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 2: You just building the trust, knowing kind of the tendencies 43 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:08,679 Speaker 2: about the snapper holder, how confident they look, you know, 44 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 2: catching the ball, molding a ball, spinning a ball where 45 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 2: the you know, maybe the snapper has a tendency of 46 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:15,679 Speaker 2: where they might miss laces, things like that. 47 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 1: So you're just kind of getting used to it. 48 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 2: And then even just like field conditions like little taller 49 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:23,519 Speaker 2: grass on this field, little lower grass on the bottom field. 50 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,919 Speaker 2: We have turf inside. Different stadiums have different surfaces, so 51 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 2: you're just trying to find a kind of the consistency 52 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 2: with some of those things that you might have some 53 00:02:31,760 --> 00:02:34,440 Speaker 2: variances of your plant, how you get off your plant, 54 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:36,359 Speaker 2: how you're rotating on the turf. So there's just like 55 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 2: little nuanced things that you've got to get used to. 56 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 2: But then for me, I'm I mean, this is year 57 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:42,919 Speaker 2: six for me, I've been doing this for long enough 58 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 2: time where uh it's not a matter of not knowing 59 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 2: what to do. 60 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 1: It's just matter of getting back on the bike and 61 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 1: you know, getting back to it.

So say that again, 95 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 2: Springs Springs great, dude. Man, He's got a lot of energy, 96 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 2: which is really nice to have around a special teams unit. 97 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 2: He allows us to kind of be our own professionals, 98 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 2: kind of a lase a fair kind of hands off 99 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:18,679 Speaker 2: a little bit just to say, hey, like I trust 100 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:20,360 Speaker 2: that you're gonna get your job done and do it 101 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,720 Speaker 2: at the best of your ability, which is really really 102 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 2: good for us, especially what you know, specialists that have 103 00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,920 Speaker 2: the ability to kind of self correct themselves. 104 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,480 Speaker 1: So it's great having the confidence behind a coordinator like that. 105 00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:34,600 Speaker 2: And then he also has someone like TQ behind him, 106 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 2: who's a vet special teams coordinator that's been around a 107 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:39,720 Speaker 2: lot of good players, some of the obviously the recent 108 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:41,120 Speaker 2: ones like Graham can go up in New York and 109 00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 2: things like that Nick Folk even last year when he 110 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:46,880 Speaker 2: was in Tennessee. So he understands, you know, kind of 111 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 2: the I wouldn't say old regime of special teams coaching, 112 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:51,240 Speaker 2: but you kind of got like an old age and 113 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 2: a new age guy that kind of gives a really 114 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,800 Speaker 2: good balance to the group. And uh, it's really it's 115 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,360 Speaker 2: It's a nice kind of operation to play under. So 116 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:05,279 Speaker 2: it's been really cool. Uh not work directly with Shane, 117 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:09,480 Speaker 2: to be honest with you, His coach growing up was 118 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,320 Speaker 2: a good guy named coach p and Pe and my 119 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,279 Speaker 2: old coach, Paul Woods I used to do a lot 120 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 2: of work together, So Shane kind of grew up under 121 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:19,320 Speaker 2: the uh, I guess the umbrella coaching of Paul wood 122 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,280 Speaker 2: Side a little bit. He was a guy up in 123 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:23,000 Speaker 2: northern Virginia that I worked with when I was coming 124 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 2: out of high school and a guy that I continue 125 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 2: to work with, Dan Orners, another guy that was in 126 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 2: that same kind of coaching tree, so a lot of 127 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:33,160 Speaker 2: crossover there. I was able to meet Shane when I 128 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 2: was at Virginia Tech, have a really good relationship with him. Obviously, 129 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:38,840 Speaker 2: he's doing some coaching stuff around the country, so it's 130 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:41,040 Speaker 2: it's good to see him kind of be in that role, 131 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 2: kind of take on the reins of some of the 132 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:45,760 Speaker 2: old coaches that he had and try to facilitate that 133 00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:47,920 Speaker 2: growth for some of the younger kickers coming out. But uh, 134 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,360 Speaker 2: definitely more of just like a personal relationship with him 135 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:54,400 Speaker 2: versus a coaching relationship. But uh, he's someone that if I, 136 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 2: if I ever really needed some help with or something 137 00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 2: like that, I can easily reach out to him. Shane's 138 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 2: a great guy tracking and yeah, yeah, TrackMan's a new 139 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,320 Speaker 2: kind of Uh they've been using it for golf obviously 140 00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 2: for a long time. I think, uh, not to not 141 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,280 Speaker 2: to put a negative light on the TrackMan stuff, but uh, 142 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 2: kicking is pretty results oriented. 143 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 1: Uh. 144 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 2: You can hit a really crappy ball and it goes through. 145 00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:22,160 Speaker 2: You can hit a really good ball and you miss. 146 00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 2: So a track man, might, you know, show me my 147 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,599 Speaker 2: statistics of my rotation and my elevation and my blah 148 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:29,600 Speaker 2: blah blah and all these things. If I make it, 149 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:31,360 Speaker 2: I'm make it. If I don't, I don't. With golf 150 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 2: a lot of times, obviously there's a lot more distance. 151 00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:35,920 Speaker 2: There's playing the ball, there's playing the shaft of the club, 152 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:38,599 Speaker 2: whatever it might be. So spin can take off distance, 153 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:42,359 Speaker 2: like your trajectory all that stuff. So for me personally 154 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 2: getting super entrenched into data like that, it's just not 155 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,720 Speaker 2: my forte with that. I have enough mental stuff that 156 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 2: I'm working on with my own swing and technique. But 157 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:55,440 Speaker 2: obviously with some guys that might need to work on 158 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:58,919 Speaker 2: those things, it's obviously a great resource if if need 159 00:06:59,040 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 2: be so. 160 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:05,440 Speaker 1: In the NFL, trying to. 161 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 2: Maybe getting some stability there, I think, yeah, yeah, yeah. 162 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 2: Path is definitely a weird one. It's a different one 163 00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 2: than some guys, but I think everyone has a weird path. 164 00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 1: Uh. 165 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 2: Especialists are gonna be, you know, kind of that oddball 166 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 2: from every other position, just because there's only thirty two 167 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 2: of our jobs for kicking obviously specifically, but uh, there's 168 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 2: thirty two jobs. 169 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:34,080 Speaker 1: There's no backups. 170 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 2: There's no like, you know, if your quarterback, you might 171 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:38,000 Speaker 2: be a back up here, back up here, all of 172 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 2: a sudden, getting starting job here. There's three on a 173 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 2: roster most of the time. Uh, whatever the situation might be. 174 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 2: But for us, it's I mean, it's really cut and dry, 175 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 2: like you're either one of the thirty two or you're not. 176 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 2: You're trying to break through that door. 177 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:49,000 Speaker 1: Uh. 178 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 2: So I've had a lot of weird opportunities in my career. 179 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 2: H some of them have taken advantage of some of them, haven't. 180 00:07:55,920 --> 00:07:58,239 Speaker 2: I've gotten in the league with the New York Giants 181 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 2: through a rookie Minnie camp tryout that up, turning it 182 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 2: into us quick signing that was a quick cut to 183 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 2: another signing for a training camp, then cut again and 184 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:08,120 Speaker 2: then worked out for Carolina. Was there for two years, 185 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 2: Cut went to Houston, sand Fran Washington. Two years in Washington, 186 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:15,240 Speaker 2: signed Jacksonville this offseason for like a week here. 187 00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 1: So I mean, yeah, crazy journey. 188 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:21,680 Speaker 2: But what I've just tried to do in my career 189 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 2: is really like lock in to me and focusing on 190 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:27,559 Speaker 2: how good of a kicker I can be at certain 191 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 2: points and continually raising like my potential to hit that 192 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:33,079 Speaker 2: all the time when you see me kick. And so 193 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 2: I'm hoping that, like I said, to put that on 194 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:38,559 Speaker 2: display here and show that I should be one of 195 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 2: obviously one of the thirty two, but I want to 196 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:42,559 Speaker 2: be in that category of top five in the league. 197 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:44,439 Speaker 2: And I feel like at certain points I've shown that 198 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 2: and other points I haven't, And so it's just continually 199 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 2: showing that I can be in that in that top 200 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:49,200 Speaker 2: top category. 201 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 1: Sorry, go ahead, you mentioned thirty two jobs. So when 202 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:56,480 Speaker 1: you are in a competition like you are right now, 203 00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,440 Speaker 1: how do you handle it? How does it not become awkward? 204 00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:03,559 Speaker 2: Uh? To be honest with you, Like I got to 205 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 2: talk to Chad a little bit last year when I 206 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:06,599 Speaker 2: was at Washington, we came up here and played and 207 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 2: Chad's a great guy. So I don't ever look at 208 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,400 Speaker 2: a competition based off of the character of the guy 209 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 2: that I'm going against. I think we both understand that 210 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:17,559 Speaker 2: we're trying to do our job at the best of 211 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 2: our ability and try to, you know, get to one 212 00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 2: of those thirty two jobs. So it's never I mean, 213 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 2: obviously you're competing against someone, there's like the awkwardness of 214 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:26,959 Speaker 2: just knowing, like if I make a kick and he misses, 215 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 2: or if he makes it and I missed, then it's 216 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 2: like like, you know, like there's that. But Chad's a 217 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 2: great did and so it's cool to be around him 218 00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 2: in the locker room, it's cool to hang out with 219 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 2: them when we get breaks and stuff like that. So 220 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:40,640 Speaker 2: I'm always rooting for him to do his best, and 221 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:43,959 Speaker 2: if he's doing his best, I'm doing my best. Then we're, 222 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:47,320 Speaker 2: you know, all all bose will rise and high tide. 223 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:49,959 Speaker 2: So I'm hoping that he does as well as he can, 224 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 2: and I'm hoping to do as well as I can, 225 00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 2: and we just kind of let things establish themselves as 226 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 2: they are. So yeah, I mean I felt like out 227 00:09:59,880 --> 00:10:01,960 Speaker 2: of good day yesterday. If I like, I've been having 228 00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:05,400 Speaker 2: a good string of weeks here and I'm just looking 229 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 2: to continue to do that. Just every opportunity I have 230 00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:12,599 Speaker 2: I want to take advantage of. And I know what 231 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:14,320 Speaker 2: I have in myself when I kick, I know how 232 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 2: good I can be. And essentially it's just going out 233 00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:20,080 Speaker 2: and doing that every single day and allowing everyone else 234 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 2: around me to see what I've seen myself. 235 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 1: So yeah, kick how much of a challenge is it 236 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 1: to place it within the landing zone? 237 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 2: Is it a challenge or at the point where you can. 238 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:33,840 Speaker 1: Like, how much is your job change? 239 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:37,959 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's funny on the opposite direction. Obviously, I was 240 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:39,600 Speaker 2: a guy that was known to have a strong leg 241 00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:43,080 Speaker 2: on kickoff, like one of the top guys kickoff wives 242 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 2: for the league for the last couple of years. So, uh, 243 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 2: dialing it back a little bit is a little bit 244 00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:50,439 Speaker 2: of an awkward situation for me. You like, kind of 245 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 2: grow up your whole entire life kick in of trying 246 00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 2: to figure out how to put the ball as far 247 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:55,439 Speaker 2: as you can, and now you're trying to dial it back. 248 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:58,400 Speaker 2: So uh, I went from being like a long drive 249 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:01,040 Speaker 2: champion to like a chip shot artists. So that's kind 250 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 2: of where I'm taking it now, and I'm just trying 251 00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 2: to find ways that we can either get the ball 252 00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:09,640 Speaker 2: on the ground to move the returners around or place 253 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:12,199 Speaker 2: it an opportunity to allow our coverage team to have 254 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,800 Speaker 2: the best opportunity to go down there. And something that 255 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:18,559 Speaker 2: I'm kind of excited for a little bit is I'm 256 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:20,960 Speaker 2: now in coverage like a lot more times, I'm going 257 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 2: to be apex and the returner on certain positions, So 258 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:27,439 Speaker 2: I'm locked in, ready to make tackles if me be 259 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:30,839 Speaker 2: so obviously want our coverage unit to go down and 260 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 2: tackle them inside the twenty or fifteen or wherever they may, 261 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:38,319 Speaker 2: but I'm also want to make sure that I'm part 262 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 2: of that coverage and taking every opportunity to make sure 263 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 2: that I contribute on that as well. 264 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:48,320 Speaker 1: So that is a mirror irons. 265 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,319 Speaker 2: If I get inside of one hundred yards, chalk me 266 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:54,000 Speaker 2: up for a double bogie. But if I'm in that 267 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 2: like one thirty range and I can get like a 268 00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:58,520 Speaker 2: gap wedge or a pitching wedge in my hand, I'm 269 00:11:58,600 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 2: usually pretty good. 270 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:04,200 Speaker 1: But uh yeah, I mean my golf game is getting 271 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:05,760 Speaker 1: there as a specialist. 272 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 2: I think you definitely need to have that in your 273 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 2: back pocket so on your off days you can get 274 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:12,280 Speaker 2: away from kicking a little bit. But uh, I'm not 275 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:14,199 Speaker 2: helping myself out with the two guys I've been golfing 276 00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:17,120 Speaker 2: with recently, with Trust and Bryce, They're like, I think 277 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 2: Trust is like a plus two handicap right now, and 278 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:23,959 Speaker 2: Bryce is making a professional amateur tryouts and stuff like that. 279 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 2: So if if Bryce wants to quit football and go golf, 280 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,560 Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure he's fine with that too. So might 281 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:32,440 Speaker 2: just need to pick my competition a little bit better 282 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:33,839 Speaker 2: to make myself feel a little bit better on the 283 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:35,760 Speaker 2: golf course.
