Show Transcript

1
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:14,980
Welcome back, everybody, to Pull Hook Golf, the
podcast.

2
00:00:15,285 --> 00:00:16,565
I'm your host, Matt Cook.

3
00:00:16,565 --> 00:00:17,625
Tonight, we got Buttsy.

4
00:00:17,684 --> 00:00:22,984
We've got Brent Grant, our tour insider, and
we've got an awesome show for all of you.

5
00:00:23,125 --> 00:00:26,804
I cannot wait to get into everything we have on
the agenda.

6
00:00:26,804 --> 00:00:28,585
We've got the tee-off report with Buttsy.

7
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:31,480
We're taking a different angle with the tee-off
report tonight.

8
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:33,320
You'll see what I mean in a second.

9
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:35,560
We've also got a Q-school update from Mr.

10
00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:36,380
Brent Grant.

11
00:00:36,520 --> 00:00:39,020
We've got the Hero World Challenge recap.

12
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:44,284
We've got a little bit of the Saudi PIF
tournament that took place.

13
00:00:44,284 --> 00:00:48,684
I know I didn't quite put that in the notes,
boys, but I want to cover that really quick as

14
00:00:48,684 --> 00:00:48,844
well.

15
00:00:48,844 --> 00:00:51,564
And then we've got the golf GOAT debate.

16
00:00:51,564 --> 00:00:56,924
I think it's time that we start kind of listing
out who our guys are that we believe are the

17
00:00:56,924 --> 00:00:58,145
greatest of all time.

18
00:00:58,469 --> 00:01:00,789
And we'll get into a whole debate around that.

19
00:01:00,789 --> 00:01:03,289
And then we've got the upcoming Grant Thornton
Invitational.

20
00:01:03,350 --> 00:01:04,469
That's this week.

21
00:01:04,469 --> 00:01:06,090
Different formats there.

22
00:01:06,229 --> 00:01:08,950
And then we've got some LIV Golf news per
usual.

23
00:01:08,950 --> 00:01:14,944
We always end it with the absolute best topic
in the world, which happens to be LIV Golf.

24
00:01:15,564 --> 00:01:17,564
Trent golfer mentions that we are off the
wagon.

25
00:01:17,564 --> 00:01:22,525
We sure are with a gift from our friends over
at Johnnie Walker, some Johnnie Walker Black

26
00:01:22,525 --> 00:01:23,025
tonight.

27
00:01:23,484 --> 00:01:25,484
Buttsy and I are drinking that.

28
00:01:25,484 --> 00:01:27,984
You know, Brent's got the stogie going.

29
00:01:28,770 --> 00:01:29,990
Getting there in a minute.

30
00:01:30,049 --> 00:01:30,609
That's weird.

31
00:01:30,609 --> 00:01:32,770
He never smokes cigars.

32
00:01:32,770 --> 00:01:33,510
That's crazy.

33
00:01:34,530 --> 00:01:34,850
Yeah.

34
00:01:34,850 --> 00:01:35,650
He really does.

35
00:01:35,650 --> 00:01:37,189
He looks really cool, though.

36
00:01:37,490 --> 00:01:38,969
I mean, probably the coolest.

37
00:01:39,329 --> 00:01:39,409
Yeah.

38
00:01:39,490 --> 00:01:39,810
When it

39
00:01:39,810 --> 00:01:40,609
comes to cigars.

40
00:01:40,609 --> 00:01:42,284
Well, Buttsy, I don't have the whiskey.

41
00:01:42,445 --> 00:01:45,165
So it's like a it's like a halfway kind of
thing.

42
00:01:45,165 --> 00:01:46,605
It is kind of a halfway thing.

43
00:01:46,685 --> 00:01:47,424
Half chub.

44
00:01:47,725 --> 00:01:48,225
Yeah.

45
00:01:48,445 --> 00:01:48,945
Yeah.

46
00:01:49,165 --> 00:01:51,105
You need to see the half chub too.

47
00:01:51,564 --> 00:01:56,239
Well, I will say if you guys will allow me the
American cigar.

48
00:01:57,659 --> 00:01:57,979
Yeah.

49
00:01:58,060 --> 00:01:58,700
From J.C.

50
00:01:58,700 --> 00:02:04,159
Newman, all American, 100% tobacco wrapper,
plastic that it comes in.

51
00:02:04,459 --> 00:02:04,939
All of it.

52
00:02:04,939 --> 00:02:05,819
100% America.

53
00:02:05,819 --> 00:02:07,180
One of the best cigars in the world.

54
00:02:07,180 --> 00:02:07,500
I heard

55
00:02:07,500 --> 00:02:08,959
that's fantastic stuff.

56
00:02:09,094 --> 00:02:14,134
It's woven with, I think, three strands of
Thomas Jefferson's real hair in every cigar.

57
00:02:14,134 --> 00:02:14,534
Exactly.

58
00:02:14,534 --> 00:02:19,334
Actually, it's his, actually, it's his, his,
his taint hair, to be exact.

59
00:02:19,334 --> 00:02:21,030
Gotta love some good taint hair.

60
00:02:21,110 --> 00:02:26,810
And I gotta tell you, folks, we've got, you
know, our usual sponsor in Swannies.

61
00:02:27,030 --> 00:02:29,030
So, make sure to go over.

62
00:02:29,030 --> 00:02:31,909
I've got, underneath here, I've got the goat
on.

63
00:02:31,909 --> 00:02:35,954
It's the tiger goat, and it's a great one.

64
00:02:35,954 --> 00:02:39,655
So because we're gonna be talking about GOATs
as well.

65
00:02:39,794 --> 00:02:40,995

been talking a lot about let's really pick some

70
00:03:08,694 --> 00:03:13,094
brands that we really wanna be a part of and,
let's get after it.

71
00:03:13,094 --> 00:03:18,439
So, we've got some big news, some breaking news
around sponsorships.

72
00:03:18,500 --> 00:03:22,439
We've got a brand new sponsor coming into town.

73
00:03:23,219 --> 00:03:26,280
And this is this is big, folks.

74
00:03:26,500 --> 00:03:28,019
This is very, very big.

75
00:03:28,019 --> 00:03:32,199
I'm trying to share my screen, so bear with me
as I'm trying to buy some time.

76
00:03:33,604 --> 00:03:34,665
Devereux Golf.

77
00:03:34,724 --> 00:03:35,705
Oh, okay.

78
00:03:36,004 --> 00:03:37,305
Devereux Golf, folks.

79
00:03:37,305 --> 00:03:40,004
Buttsy's got it on right now.

80
00:03:40,004 --> 00:03:40,905
Look at that.

81
00:03:42,724 --> 00:03:44,905
He's shaking his ass over there.

82
00:03:44,965 --> 00:03:47,189
But Devereux Golf and I've got it on as well.

83
00:03:47,349 --> 00:03:51,290
So I've got on the out of bounds knit jacket.

84
00:03:51,349 --> 00:03:56,090
This thing is sick, but this is a local
Phoenix, Arizona.

85
00:03:56,310 --> 00:03:58,010
Show us the jacket, bro.

86
00:03:58,229 --> 00:04:00,784
Look at some of the—well, hang on a second.

87
00:04:00,784 --> 00:04:08,064
Before I show off here my own gear, folks, the
promo code for Devereux Golf is pullhookgolf20.

88
00:04:08,064 --> 00:04:12,164
You're gonna get 20% off everything at Devereux
Golf.

89
00:04:12,305 --> 00:04:15,949
Now, Devereux, there's a lot of debate around
how do you spell this thing?

90
00:04:15,949 --> 00:04:17,149
How do you say it?

91
00:04:17,149 --> 00:04:19,730
First of all, it begins with a D.

92
00:04:19,870 --> 00:04:21,149
There's three E's.

93
00:04:21,149 --> 00:04:21,550
Okay.

94
00:04:21,550 --> 00:04:26,529
So it's Devereux and then an X at the end.

95
00:04:26,884 --> 00:04:27,045
So

96
00:04:29,764 --> 00:04:35,785
And I gotta tell you guys, I am absolutely
juiced about this sponsorship partnership,

97
00:04:36,004 --> 00:04:37,705
whatever you wanna call it.

98
00:04:37,845 --> 00:04:41,785
We are down with that because this, I mean,
check this out.

99
00:04:43,699 --> 00:04:45,620
This is fresh.

100
00:04:45,620 --> 00:04:47,720
And by the way, Buttsy and I were in there
today.

101
00:04:48,100 --> 00:04:49,539

Thanks for the invite,

the stuff.

104
00:04:51,060 --> 00:04:52,819
Well, you're in California, my friend.

105
00:04:52,819 --> 00:04:53,379
So I

106
00:04:53,379 --> 00:04:54,740
was flown over for that.

107
00:04:54,740 --> 00:04:55,334
Come on.

108
00:04:55,574 --> 00:04:58,454
We, I went through and I was just like, holy
shit.

109
00:04:58,454 --> 00:04:59,975
This is—this is my jam.

110
00:04:59,975 --> 00:05:01,654
I absolutely love this stuff.

111
00:05:01,654 --> 00:05:04,474
So folks, make sure to support the podcast.

112
00:05:04,854 --> 00:05:06,394
Go over to devereuxgolf.com.

113
00:05:08,379 --> 00:05:13,839
Spend some money for the squad, and you're not
gonna be disappointed at all.

114
00:05:14,060 --> 00:05:15,980
This stuff is absolutely fresh.

115
00:05:15,980 --> 00:05:17,819
The new drops are so sick, dude.

116
00:05:17,819 --> 00:05:18,879
It's so sick.

117
00:05:19,339 --> 00:05:19,839
Cardigans.

118
00:05:20,139 --> 00:05:23,420
God, I gotta pull out that cardigan here in a
little bit and toss that on.

119
00:05:23,420 --> 00:05:26,034
Maybe—maybe for the mess up the hair, Matt.

120
00:05:26,034 --> 00:05:26,435
Keep.

121
00:05:26,435 --> 00:05:26,914
You know what?

122
00:05:26,914 --> 00:05:27,394
It's funny.

123
00:05:27,394 --> 00:05:28,194
I was gonna throw it on.

124
00:05:28,194 --> 00:05:29,814
I'm gonna throw it on a little bit later.

125
00:05:29,954 --> 00:05:30,435
Okay.

126
00:05:30,435 --> 00:05:30,995
Keep the hair.

127
00:05:30,995 --> 00:05:31,394
Keep the hair.

128
00:05:31,394 --> 00:05:34,375
I'm gonna keep the hair going so that the
ladies stay tuned in.

129
00:05:34,834 --> 00:05:36,854
But this hat is gonna be going on.

130
00:05:36,995 --> 00:05:39,220
And again, we're going local.

131
00:05:39,220 --> 00:05:41,139
We're—we're going local with our brands.

132
00:05:41,139 --> 00:05:46,160
W—w Devereux Golf is here in the Phoenix area
or Tempe, I should say.

133
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:48,240
And, absolutely love it.

134
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:53,745
So we're pumped up about this new partnership
and sponsorship heading into 2026.

135
00:05:54,444 --> 00:05:54,604
Yeah.

136
00:05:54,604 --> 00:05:57,425
Look at this thing for the ladies, dude, or for
the dudes.

137
00:05:57,724 --> 00:05:59,345
I mean, look at that, dude.

138
00:06:00,604 --> 00:06:01,504
Little bag.

139
00:06:02,204 --> 00:06:03,164
Oh, that's great.

140
00:06:03,164 --> 00:06:03,485
Hey.

141
00:06:03,485 --> 00:06:04,845
Keep your steroids in there.

142
00:06:04,845 --> 00:06:05,745
Yeah, man.

143
00:06:06,029 --> 00:06:08,370
Keep my Equipoten tablets in there.

144
00:06:09,470 --> 00:06:12,370
I'm just a big old cow ready for the milking.

145
00:06:13,149 --> 00:06:13,470
Yeah.

146
00:06:13,470 --> 00:06:14,529
Oh my God.

147
00:06:15,230 --> 00:06:18,050
So that's what we got going on right now.

148
00:06:18,430 --> 00:06:26,254
Again, more to come around DevRel Golf as we
move into 2025 again, absolutely pumped up

149
00:06:26,254 --> 00:06:27,055
about that.

150
00:06:27,055 --> 00:06:32,654
And if you're in a golf shop, try golfer, make
sure to get DevRel Golf into the golf shop

151
00:06:32,654 --> 00:06:38,900
because we're going to be pumping this up here
locally and we can't wait.

152
00:06:38,900 --> 00:06:43,480
We can't wait for more episodes, more things to
come around that.

153
00:06:44,100 --> 00:06:45,220
And now, here you go.

154
00:06:45,220 --> 00:06:46,980
We've got Truck Call for saying good stuff.

155
00:06:46,980 --> 00:06:47,460
Congrats.

156
00:06:47,460 --> 00:06:48,600
We appreciate it.

157
00:06:48,854 --> 00:06:50,294
Well, let's get it on.

158
00:06:50,294 --> 00:06:57,095
It's always amazing to see how many clothing
companies there are, but there are a few out

159
00:06:57,095 --> 00:06:58,954
there that really set themselves apart.

160
00:06:59,014 --> 00:07:05,379
And, I think DevRel does a good job of
balancing kind of, like, the modern-day look

161
00:07:05,379 --> 00:07:10,759
with a little bit of the old-school flair and
doesn't, you know, they don't go full Malbon.

162
00:07:10,899 --> 00:07:11,220
You know?

163
00:07:11,220 --> 00:07:16,334
They don't go, like, full LA hipster, but they
do have, you know, little sprinkles.

164
00:07:16,555 --> 00:07:17,514
I love the jacket.

165
00:07:17,514 --> 00:07:18,735
That jacket's incredible.

166
00:07:18,795 --> 00:07:19,274
That's that

167
00:07:19,274 --> 00:07:20,014
is awesome.

168
00:07:20,154 --> 00:07:22,074
Dude, you should see the other one I've got.

169
00:07:22,074 --> 00:07:23,035
I mean, shoot.

170
00:07:23,035 --> 00:07:26,095
I'll probably have to wear that one on the next
episode.

171
00:07:26,154 --> 00:07:28,235
I can't give it all away right away.

172
00:07:28,235 --> 00:07:28,395
Oh.

173
00:07:28,395 --> 00:07:34,370
Man, the other jacket that I have as well from
today, it looks like it is straight out of

174
00:07:34,370 --> 00:07:37,650
Cobra Kai, and my wife already saw it.

175
00:07:37,650 --> 00:07:39,750
And she's like, I want that.

176
00:07:39,889 --> 00:07:41,430
I'm like, you can't have it.

177
00:07:41,650 --> 00:07:43,029
She tries to steal everything.

178
00:07:43,305 --> 00:07:47,384
So I was like, I gotta wear it on the show at
least once before you can start stealing it.

179
00:07:47,384 --> 00:07:49,404
Till death do you part in all your sweaters.

180
00:07:49,544 --> 00:07:50,044
Absolutely.

181
00:07:50,185 --> 00:07:54,345
And jackets and hoodies and everything else
that comes along.

182
00:07:54,345 --> 00:08:00,930
But, again, let's support our local companies
here in the Valley and let's keep this thing

183
00:08:00,930 --> 00:08:01,329
moving.

184
00:08:01,329 --> 00:08:05,990
So we've got the tee-off report with my man
here, Mister Buttsy himself.

185
00:08:06,370 --> 00:08:07,029
Oh, shit.

186
00:08:08,370 --> 00:08:08,870
Whoo.

187
00:08:09,169 --> 00:08:11,295
And we've got now Buttsy.

188
00:08:11,295 --> 00:08:12,814
Normally we put him on a soapbox.

189
00:08:12,814 --> 00:08:14,814
We let him complain about all this shit.

190
00:08:14,814 --> 00:08:17,055
However, we're taking a spin here.

191
00:08:17,055 --> 00:08:21,074
Little first tee spin with the tee-off report.

192
00:08:21,074 --> 00:08:27,209
Buttsy, my question to you is what's your
pre-round advice for golfers?

193
00:08:28,389 --> 00:08:30,170
Oh, man.

194
00:08:31,110 --> 00:08:31,910
Oh, man.

195
00:08:31,910 --> 00:08:32,970
Where do I begin?

196
00:08:33,190 --> 00:08:35,990
I guess it starts on which day of the weekend
it falls on.

197
00:08:35,990 --> 00:08:41,205
If it's a Saturday, if I got enough time, if I
wake up early enough, we're probably having a

198
00:08:41,205 --> 00:08:42,584
Bloody Mary at the crib.

199
00:08:43,044 --> 00:08:43,544
K?

200
00:08:43,605 --> 00:08:49,365
Which means we're not driving, so Uber or get a
get a wonderful ride from the missus here.

201
00:08:49,365 --> 00:08:54,220
But, otherwise, I usually do tobacco on
Saturdays as well.

202
00:08:54,519 --> 00:08:59,159
So what that means is we're definitely gonna
stop at the nearest gas station en route to the

203
00:08:59,159 --> 00:08:59,899
golf course.

204
00:08:59,960 --> 00:09:03,340
We're gonna pick up probably some chompers, aka
chew.

205
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,705
Maybe some smokes depending on how the lungs
are feeling that day.

206
00:09:06,865 --> 00:09:08,085
Might get some cigs.

207
00:09:08,465 --> 00:09:09,845
I quit the vape thing.

208
00:09:09,985 --> 00:09:10,705
Do I have any

209
00:09:10,705 --> 00:09:11,665
fresh face up?

210
00:09:11,665 --> 00:09:12,144
Well, we'll see.

211
00:09:12,304 --> 00:09:12,785
News.

212
00:09:12,785 --> 00:09:16,384
As this Johnny Walker goes down, I may not quit
here very long.

213
00:09:16,384 --> 00:09:17,345
So, just

214
00:09:17,345 --> 00:09:17,904
get outside.

215
00:09:17,904 --> 00:09:18,705
Where's the cigar?

216
00:09:18,705 --> 00:09:19,345
Come on, bro.

217
00:09:19,904 --> 00:09:22,240
Yeah, dude, I wish I could just smoke one in
here.

218
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:22,879
Let me tell you.

219
00:09:22,879 --> 00:09:24,399
But, yeah.

220
00:09:24,399 --> 00:09:28,160
Then you get to the golf course, and let's
throw a breakfast sandwich in there.

221
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:30,559
Let's just throw a little something in there.

222
00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:35,440
I like sausage with a flaky biscuit smothered
in cheese, and I do eat the cheese off the

223
00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:35,940
wrapper.

224
00:09:36,445 --> 00:09:39,105
Do you prefer a sandwich or a burrito?

225
00:09:39,725 --> 00:09:40,204
Sandwich.

226
00:09:40,204 --> 00:09:42,125
The burritos never treated me well.

227
00:09:42,125 --> 00:09:47,325
That's turned into, I can't tell you how many
times you're not quite to the bathroom on 9, or

228
00:09:47,325 --> 00:09:50,704
you may know what that bathroom looks like at
the given portion plan.

229
00:09:50,759 --> 00:09:52,279
And you're driving back to the clubhouse.

230
00:09:52,279 --> 00:09:56,440
You have to come back and meet up because,
well, you're not planning ahead.

231
00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:59,899
You don't have a diaper on, and you're trying
not to take a shit behind a bush.

232
00:10:01,399 --> 00:10:02,519
Well, you fly back

233
00:10:02,519 --> 00:10:03,399
to the shop.

234
00:10:03,399 --> 00:10:04,940
Hopefully, you make it in time.

235
00:10:05,504 --> 00:10:07,585
God forbid the stall is taken.

236
00:10:07,585 --> 00:10:08,545
It's just a terrible take.

237
00:10:08,545 --> 00:10:09,504
So no on the burritos.

238
00:10:09,504 --> 00:10:10,165
God forbid.

239
00:10:10,465 --> 00:10:10,705
Yeah.

240
00:10:10,705 --> 00:10:11,425
Any coffee?

241
00:10:11,425 --> 00:10:12,865
Any coffee going on in there?

242
00:10:12,865 --> 00:10:13,504
Maybe a little I'll

243
00:10:13,504 --> 00:10:15,345
do, like, Baileys and coffee or well, I

244
00:10:15,345 --> 00:10:16,644
was gonna say a little Irish

245
00:10:16,785 --> 00:10:17,264
whiskey, you

246
00:10:17,264 --> 00:10:17,745
know, in there.

247
00:10:17,745 --> 00:10:18,785
We don't start the boozing.

248
00:10:18,785 --> 00:10:19,904
Let's say it's a Sunday.

249
00:10:19,904 --> 00:10:20,065
Right?

250
00:10:20,065 --> 00:10:23,320
And we're not we're gonna kinda hold off
because, you know, the next day is usually a

251
00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:27,320
workday, so we're gonna go down a little bit on
the gas pedal there.

252
00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:29,159
But, yeah.

253
00:10:29,159 --> 00:10:30,519
So coffee in that case.

254
00:10:30,519 --> 00:10:32,379
But then you get to the golf course.

255
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:33,879
I don't know, man.

256
00:10:33,879 --> 00:10:41,335
I might hit 15 range balls if that, but I'm
usually grabbing 2 double transfusions.

257
00:10:41,634 --> 00:10:45,875
I'm filling the cooler with at least a
six-pack, some sort of self-serve, some kind.

258
00:10:45,875 --> 00:10:46,375
Cool.

259
00:10:46,434 --> 00:10:48,115
And maybe Johnnie Walker now.

260
00:10:48,115 --> 00:10:48,595
Who knows?

261
00:10:48,595 --> 00:10:48,835
I don't

262
00:10:48,835 --> 00:10:50,514
know what that day would turn out like.

263
00:10:50,514 --> 00:10:54,570
But, yeah, some get the cooler filled up.

264
00:10:54,570 --> 00:10:58,889
And if there's enough time after those
priorities are met, like I said, I'll go out

265
00:10:58,889 --> 00:11:02,090
and I'll hit 10 or 15 wedges, and we'll rip
right

266
00:11:02,090 --> 00:11:03,230
over the tee.

267
00:11:03,370 --> 00:11:05,714
I'm trying to get loose mentally and
physically.

268
00:11:05,714 --> 00:11:06,674
I'm a big dude.

269
00:11:06,674 --> 00:11:08,934
The booze definitely helps that in the morning.

270
00:11:09,875 --> 00:11:12,934
I'm trying to assess how my stomach feels from
the breakfast sando.

271
00:11:13,075 --> 00:11:17,954
We gotta get all that shit out of the way
literally and proverbially before we head to

272
00:11:17,954 --> 00:11:18,434
the box.

273
00:11:18,434 --> 00:11:23,840
So I like to get to the range, loaded on booze,
got all my shit in the cart.

274
00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,259
I got my smokes or whatever I'm doing that day.

275
00:11:26,879 --> 00:11:29,679
And then if there's a few minutes left over,
I'll hit some nugs.

276
00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:31,919
Otherwise, more often than not, Brent, you've
seen this.

277
00:11:31,919 --> 00:11:33,039
We're just gonna go peg it.

278
00:11:33,039 --> 00:11:33,200
No.

279
00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:34,455
I'm just gonna Oh, yeah.

280
00:11:34,535 --> 00:11:34,934
That's Do

281
00:11:34,934 --> 00:11:38,315
you ever do you ever hit the green, the putting
green ahead of you?

282
00:11:38,695 --> 00:11:39,095
No.

283
00:11:39,095 --> 00:11:39,335
No.

284
00:11:39,335 --> 00:11:42,375
I do not believe in practicing missing putts.

285
00:11:42,375 --> 00:11:44,315
I think it's the stupidest thing ever.

286
00:11:44,455 --> 00:11:45,575
I think it's fucking dumb.

287
00:11:45,575 --> 00:11:49,254
You know how that green's rolling after the
first putt you hit?

288
00:11:49,254 --> 00:11:49,740
Yeah.

289
00:11:49,899 --> 00:11:53,500
If you're playing somewhere special, you might
blast the first one by, but I'd like to think

290
00:11:53,500 --> 00:11:58,299
I'm, you know, a premium enough player to be
able to look at it and know this is how it's

291
00:11:58,299 --> 00:11:59,600
probably rolling today.

292
00:11:59,820 --> 00:12:03,339
And I'd like to think that I'm gonna make
everything every time I ever step on the golf

293
00:12:03,339 --> 00:12:03,580
course.

294
00:12:03,580 --> 00:12:08,985
If I go to the practice green before I play
golf and I miss four or five, and then I go to

295
00:12:08,985 --> 00:12:12,504
hit three or four shorties just saying, let's
work on the stroke, knock these in, two of

296
00:12:12,504 --> 00:12:15,304
those miss, I'm gonna putt like shit all day
because what did I just do?

297
00:12:15,304 --> 00:12:19,144
I just proved to myself that we're not putting
very well, and we haven't even fucking teed off

298
00:12:19,144 --> 00:12:19,620
yet.

299
00:12:19,620 --> 00:12:20,120
So

300
00:12:27,940 --> 00:12:28,440
Wow.

301
00:12:28,500 --> 00:12:30,339
The fans loved it.

302
00:12:30,339 --> 00:12:30,659
Yeah.

303
00:12:30,659 --> 00:12:31,960
Absolutely loved that.

304
00:12:32,259 --> 00:12:35,595
That's pretty much my more that's how it's
gonna go.

305
00:12:36,154 --> 00:12:37,134
I like that.

306
00:12:37,274 --> 00:12:38,495
I like that a lot.

307
00:12:38,554 --> 00:12:40,235
I do have one question, though.

308
00:12:40,235 --> 00:12:40,735
Sure.

309
00:12:41,355 --> 00:12:44,574
So let's say it's a special Friday.

310
00:12:45,595 --> 00:12:46,074
Okay.

311
00:12:46,074 --> 00:12:49,454
Do you do you let's say a tee time's 11
o'clock.

312
00:12:49,595 --> 00:12:50,095
Sure.

313
00:12:50,579 --> 00:12:51,079
Okay.

314
00:12:51,139 --> 00:12:53,139
You know, it's like an October day.

315
00:12:53,139 --> 00:12:53,720
You know?

316
00:12:55,139 --> 00:12:58,579
What kinda what kinda shenanigans are going on?

317
00:12:58,579 --> 00:13:00,500
Let's say you got a little game going on.

318
00:13:00,500 --> 00:13:00,819
You know?

319
00:13:00,819 --> 00:13:03,620
It's a foursome of guys that you know real
well.

320
00:13:03,620 --> 00:13:07,924
Is there any sort of, you know, things that are
going on before the round?

321
00:13:07,924 --> 00:13:12,245
I mean, what if what, you know, what sort of
things could the people learn from the great

322
00:13:12,245 --> 00:13:12,985
and powerful?

323
00:13:13,524 --> 00:13:19,049
If I have time, if it's 11, 12, 1 o'clock, and
I know I got some time in the morning, I'm

324
00:13:19,049 --> 00:13:20,970
gonna fire up the hand-eye coordination.

325
00:13:20,970 --> 00:13:25,610
I'm probably gonna have about five or six White
Claws and play Call of Duty, to be honest with

326
00:13:25,610 --> 00:13:26,090
you.

327
00:13:26,090 --> 00:13:27,149
Oh, there we go.

328
00:13:27,289 --> 00:13:32,409
And that first game's gonna be rough, but
before you know it, you're getting the brain

329
00:13:32,409 --> 00:13:33,230
locked in.

330
00:13:33,289 --> 00:13:34,350
You're getting loose.

331
00:13:35,105 --> 00:13:36,304
Honestly, I think it works, dude.

332
00:13:36,304 --> 00:13:37,345
I really do think it works.

333
00:13:37,345 --> 00:13:41,424
If I have time, I will play Call of Duty for an
hour to an hour and a half before I leave the

334
00:13:41,824 --> 00:13:44,464
house, and then my brain and my hands are
connected.

335
00:13:44,464 --> 00:13:46,784
I will not hit range balls in that case.

336
00:13:46,784 --> 00:13:47,980
I'll just, yeah.

337
00:13:47,980 --> 00:13:48,480
Interesting.

338
00:13:48,540 --> 00:13:49,200
I'm ready.

339
00:13:49,340 --> 00:13:50,860
What about for those young guys?

340
00:13:50,860 --> 00:13:55,580
And this could even go for some older men as
well where you had a bender the night before.

341
00:13:55,580 --> 00:13:57,360
You're on a golf trip, let's say.

342
00:13:57,420 --> 00:13:59,920
And all of a sudden, you are shaky.

343
00:14:00,460 --> 00:14:05,795
You might be on the verge of vomiting to start
off the next day.

344
00:14:06,975 --> 00:14:08,254
What's your advice there?

345
00:14:08,254 --> 00:14:13,235
Because I've got a little recipe that I
normally go to in those types of situations.

346
00:14:13,730 --> 00:14:17,830
So I'll literally open one eye and crawl out of
bed.

347
00:14:18,129 --> 00:14:22,710
And the first thing I'll do is turn the shower
on cold, and then I'll come out to the kitchen,

348
00:14:23,170 --> 00:14:31,225
and I will open the closest bottle of hard
brown alcohol and take an absolute satanic rip

349
00:14:31,225 --> 00:14:31,965
off of it.

350
00:14:32,024 --> 00:14:34,904
And then I will try not to puke there.

351
00:14:34,904 --> 00:14:36,684
I'll usually stand there for a minute.

352
00:14:36,904 --> 00:14:43,959
And then I'll cruise back in, and I will lay
down in the shower for 10 or 15 minutes and

353
00:14:43,959 --> 00:14:45,559
then kinda have a little pep talk.

354
00:14:45,559 --> 00:14:49,100
And then by then, that shit's hitting the
cranium, and it's fucking go time.

355
00:14:49,639 --> 00:14:51,740
Are you a puke and rally kinda guy?

356
00:14:51,799 --> 00:14:52,039
No.

357
00:14:52,039 --> 00:14:52,839
I don't puke.

358
00:14:52,839 --> 00:14:53,339
Yeah.

359
00:14:53,434 --> 00:14:54,014
I'm a

360
00:14:54,475 --> 00:14:54,975
man.

361
00:14:55,514 --> 00:14:55,754
Yeah.

362
00:14:55,754 --> 00:14:55,995
Yeah.

363
00:14:55,995 --> 00:15:02,894
So my recipe is normally as soon as you get to
the golf course, you grab a Bloody Mary.

364
00:15:03,034 --> 00:15:03,514
Sure.

365
00:15:03,514 --> 00:15:05,534
And you ask her to make it spicy.

366
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:06,240
Okay.

367
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:11,620
Because you want to get out whatever is in
there from the day prior.

368
00:15:11,759 --> 00:15:13,120
And I don't want it coming through.

369
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:14,179
I don't want the vomit.

370
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:19,664
So if you gotta go use that stall and have a
pregame, you know, good old dump, then that's

371
00:15:19,664 --> 00:15:20,804
what you gotta do.

372
00:15:21,024 --> 00:15:27,184
So normally, it's chug down that Bloody Mary
while you're at the bar, and then you order an

373
00:15:27,184 --> 00:15:29,044
immediate second Bloody Mary.

374
00:15:29,184 --> 00:15:29,504
Yes.

375
00:15:29,504 --> 00:15:30,565
And again, spicy.

376
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:35,460
And you take that on your way to the bathroom
to take your deuce.

377
00:15:35,519 --> 00:15:35,679
Yep.

378
00:15:35,679 --> 00:15:40,320
And normally, by the time that you're halfway
done, you're at the first tee and you're not

379
00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:44,960
quite as shaky as you were, but you get some
good vitamins with that Bloody Mary.

380
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:50,725
You get a lot of vitamin C, you get rehydrated
a little bit, and you get the alcohol in so

381
00:15:50,725 --> 00:15:54,504
that your body's not in withdrawals to where
you're shaking and so forth.

382
00:15:54,644 --> 00:15:54,884
Yeah.

383
00:15:54,884 --> 00:15:55,044
Yeah.

384
00:15:55,044 --> 00:15:59,625
And you just and you released an absolute
demonic black star shit.

385
00:15:59,924 --> 00:16:00,084
Damn.

386
00:16:00,084 --> 00:16:04,549
If you put that body in the bar and you don't
have anything in your stomach when you that's a

387
00:16:04,549 --> 00:16:08,710
that's a smart play because that's all that
salt, that's gonna basically turn into an

388
00:16:08,710 --> 00:16:09,110
enema.

389
00:16:09,110 --> 00:16:11,029
Like, it's That's exactly right.

390
00:16:11,029 --> 00:16:11,590
I mean and

391
00:16:11,590 --> 00:16:15,909
then you just just in time, you grab that
second one, you just go sit down in there and

392
00:16:15,909 --> 00:16:16,725
camp out and

393
00:16:17,605 --> 00:16:18,084
drop it.

394
00:16:18,164 --> 00:16:18,725
Michael J.

395
00:16:18,725 --> 00:16:19,605
Fox action out there.

396
00:16:19,605 --> 00:16:19,845
And that

397
00:16:19,845 --> 00:16:20,725
1st you don't wanna see it.

398
00:16:20,804 --> 00:16:22,745
1st piece shot with that 2 iron.

399
00:16:22,804 --> 00:16:26,884
You know, it doesn't quite feel as bad off the
off the end of the bat like it normally would.

400
00:16:26,884 --> 00:16:27,044
You know?

401
00:16:27,044 --> 00:16:28,245
But if you don't think that it's

402
00:16:28,644 --> 00:16:30,404
That's another thing I would say I've learned.

403
00:16:30,404 --> 00:16:36,389
Even if it could be a 310-yard par 4, super
tight, everybody else sitting 5 iron off the

404
00:16:36,389 --> 00:16:37,110
tee to be smart.

405
00:16:37,110 --> 00:16:37,429
I am

406
00:16:37,669 --> 00:16:38,409
rip driver.

407
00:16:38,949 --> 00:16:42,250
I I am opening up drivers far as I can

408
00:16:42,709 --> 00:16:43,370
and just

409
00:16:43,669 --> 00:16:45,929
Wiping it, and it's probably going dead
straight.

410
00:16:46,149 --> 00:16:46,470
Yeah.

411
00:16:46,470 --> 00:16:46,970
Absolutely.

412
00:16:47,345 --> 00:16:47,665
Yeah.

413
00:16:47,665 --> 00:16:48,945
Absolutely agree, boys.

414
00:16:48,945 --> 00:16:49,585
That's beautiful.

415
00:16:49,745 --> 00:16:52,004
The door shut, like, it's going to stay.

416
00:16:52,384 --> 00:16:52,705
Yeah?

417
00:16:52,705 --> 00:16:56,785
I gotta tell you, I might be switching to I
used to be a flask guy.

418
00:16:56,785 --> 00:16:59,264
Used to break out the flask, and then I stopped
for a while.

419
00:16:59,264 --> 00:17:00,804
I might come back.

420
00:17:01,830 --> 00:17:02,149
Okay.

421
00:17:02,149 --> 00:17:02,309
I

422
00:17:02,309 --> 00:17:03,110
got some—I don't know.

423
00:17:03,110 --> 00:17:05,849
I know a spot that's got some pretty nice
flasks.

424
00:17:07,509 --> 00:17:11,369
Shinola, if you're ever perusing the internet.

425
00:17:12,069 --> 00:17:13,210
The watch Shinola.

426
00:17:14,994 --> 00:17:15,394
K.

427
00:17:15,394 --> 00:17:15,894
Okay.

428
00:17:16,194 --> 00:17:17,875
I'm gonna have to take a look at that.

429
00:17:17,875 --> 00:17:18,535
Good shit.

430
00:17:19,315 --> 00:17:20,835
Anyways, hold on.

431
00:17:20,835 --> 00:17:26,515
I think Dylan Vaudry asked to pick his bachelor
party cigar.

432
00:17:26,515 --> 00:17:28,529
Should we do that for him?

433
00:17:28,690 --> 00:17:29,410
Why not?

434
00:17:29,410 --> 00:17:34,210
Dylan Vaudry is a longtime listener, so let's
go ahead and help him out here.

435
00:17:34,210 --> 00:17:40,390
So, Brent, which cigar would you pick for his
Scottsdale bachelor party cigar?

436
00:17:42,035 --> 00:17:45,634
So it's gotta be a healthy size.

437
00:17:45,634 --> 00:17:48,535
So we're gonna go with a—it's called a Toro.

438
00:17:48,595 --> 00:17:50,134
That's the size of the cigar.

439
00:17:52,035 --> 00:17:55,654
It's about six inches, about a 56 ring gauge.

440
00:17:56,230 --> 00:17:56,730
Mhmm.

441
00:17:56,869 --> 00:18:00,950
And you gotta go—you gotta go with—you gotta go
with the Padron, man.

442
00:18:00,950 --> 00:18:02,569
Gotta go with the Padron Presidente.

443
00:18:03,429 --> 00:18:05,589
That's a phenomenal, phenomenal cigar.

444
00:18:05,589 --> 00:18:07,609
It comes in a white or red tube.

445
00:18:08,954 --> 00:18:10,154
You know, you can pass them out.

446
00:18:10,154 --> 00:18:12,894
It sounds cool when they're clicking together
in your pocket.

447
00:18:13,274 --> 00:18:14,234
You know, pass them out.

448
00:18:14,554 --> 00:18:18,654
They don't look like a cheap plastic-covered
cigar.

449
00:18:19,434 --> 00:18:22,734
Comes in a tube, smokes great, and I think it's
about $25.

450
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:25,339
20 to $25.

451
00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:26,359
Okay.

452
00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:27,099
Not bad.

453
00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:27,960
Not bad.

454
