tonight we'll only have three Monday night shows on the season,
12
00:00:52.600 --> 00:00:54.479
and then we have to talk to the boss to
13
00:00:54.520 --> 00:00:56.640

00:00:57.240 --> 00:01:00.200
Don't bring that up yet, she's got three weeks to
15
00:01:00.200 --> 00:01:00.439

00:01:01.119 --> 00:01:04.159
Three weeks on our way out. So you can see
17
00:01:04.159 --> 00:01:06.920
on the on the panel that I We've got Nicki

Stricker in person and to open the show, and she
19
00:01:10.120 --> 00:01:11.680
asked me what we were talking about. I told her
20
00:01:11.680 --> 00:01:13.959
I wouldn't tell her till we were live. So welcome in.
21
00:01:14.040 --> 00:01:17.120
We appreciate having you here, absolutely. Thanks for having Gary.

00:01:17.120 --> 00:01:19.959
Tomato will join us in about fifteen minutes or so,
23
00:01:20.079 --> 00:01:21.680
and then Vince Siegel and I want to make sure
24
00:01:21.680 --> 00:01:24.120
I pronounced his last name properly. He's seventeen years old.
25
00:01:24.120 --> 00:01:26.719
He won the State Am a week ago, the youngest
26
00:01:27.040 --> 00:01:29.120
player in the modern era. I don't know how they
27
00:01:29.200 --> 00:01:35.000
define the modern era after tis, I don't know, is
28
00:01:35.000 --> 00:01:38.200
that what it is. So he's going to join us
29
00:01:38.359 --> 00:01:40.400
at half past the hour. So one of the things
30
00:01:40.480 --> 00:01:42.200
we did want to talk to you about is family.
31
00:01:42.280 --> 00:01:44.200
Going to be able to cut into Gary's time on this?
32
00:01:44.439 --> 00:01:47.879
Yeah? Probably, Okay, I knew you'd appreciate that. I want
33
00:01:47.920 --> 00:01:49.560
to talk about family golf, and we can talk to
34
00:01:49.680 --> 00:01:51.640
both of you about it because you've done it right.
35
00:01:51.719 --> 00:01:55.120
I mean you you were a parent of kids that
36
00:01:55.239 --> 00:01:57.879
played and now you're a player and turned into a
37
00:01:57.959 --> 00:02:00.959
parent of kids that played, and your husband played, and
38
00:02:01.040 --> 00:02:03.799
I just wonder, like in the last year things have
39
00:02:03.920 --> 00:02:06.719
changed so dramatically with is he leaving to play college
40
00:02:06.760 --> 00:02:11.039
golf and Steven injury front, You're continuing to play, Bobby
41
00:02:11.360 --> 00:02:15.560
trying to make it in her world. How challenging is
42
00:02:15.599 --> 00:02:18.520
the juggle and to keep things in some perspective.
43
00:02:19.000 --> 00:02:23.400
Ah, you know, I think it's everybody kind of getting
44
00:02:23.479 --> 00:02:28.560
to their place. The girls, you know, kind of doing
45
00:02:28.840 --> 00:02:31.039
what they're doing because they want to do it.
46
00:02:31.080 --> 00:02:31.319
I don't.
47
00:02:31.360 --> 00:02:35.800
I don't feel that I'm juggling my time as much.
48
00:02:35.840 --> 00:02:38.719
I feel I've gotten an opportunity to get back into
49
00:02:38.759 --> 00:02:42.520
it because I haven't had to do that. I'm available
50
00:02:42.520 --> 00:02:47.080
for them. But it's also, you know, an opportunity to
51
00:02:47.199 --> 00:02:52.400
give them to make it their own. You know, they're
52
00:02:52.560 --> 00:02:57.759
they're carrying on obviously a little bit of a tradition
53
00:02:57.840 --> 00:03:01.280
in playing, but they need to find a way to
54
00:03:01.400 --> 00:03:04.319
make that their own. And that's kind of been the
55
00:03:04.360 --> 00:03:06.599
biggest thing I think that Steve and I, you know,
56
00:03:06.639 --> 00:03:10.680
we've talked about quite a lot. You know, they're in
57
00:03:10.719 --> 00:03:14.159
a situation where, you know, they have a whole bunch
58
00:03:14.199 --> 00:03:20.319
of resources, and in that, I think making them mindful
59
00:03:20.360 --> 00:03:22.400
that you have a lot of information, take that information
60
00:03:22.479 --> 00:03:23.680
and again make it yours.
61
00:03:24.240 --> 00:03:27.719
Talking with Nicki. Nicki Stricker joins us off the top
62
00:03:27.719 --> 00:03:29.319
of the show. A week ago. Out of the gate,
63
00:03:29.319 --> 00:03:32.759
we played Scotti Scheffler's comments from the Open Championship, both
64
00:03:33.280 --> 00:03:35.639
some of the sentiment that he put out there before
65
00:03:35.680 --> 00:03:39.000
the tournament and after, and it's perspective. And I'm curious
66
00:03:39.840 --> 00:03:43.439
in your world, how did you learn to not define
67
00:03:43.719 --> 00:03:46.280
who you are by what you do on the golf course?
68
00:03:46.319 --> 00:03:49.199
Because so many of us are defined or sometimes feel
69
00:03:49.240 --> 00:03:52.360
like we're defined by what we do as a profession.
70
00:03:52.560 --> 00:03:55.520
And you are a golfer, your husband's a golfer, your
71
00:03:55.560 --> 00:03:58.159
kids are golfers. How do you is that part of
72
00:03:58.199 -->
Load full transcript
00:04:01.159
the process is to not define your by what happens
73
00:04:02.080 --> 00:04:03.039
on the course.
74
00:04:02.919 --> 00:04:08.439
Absolutely, and it's something that you know, I've I still
75
00:04:08.439 --> 00:04:14.360
struggle with, you know that that comparison to just in
76
00:04:14.439 --> 00:04:19.600
my household to go out and what is successful for
77
00:04:19.800 --> 00:04:22.199
me and and I think this game is is tough,
78
00:04:22.199 --> 00:04:24.399
and I've talked to my brother you know about it too,
79
00:04:24.480 --> 00:04:28.319
where it can beat you up because there's not It
80
00:04:28.360 --> 00:04:31.959
depends on how you define success. And I think you
81
00:04:32.000 --> 00:04:34.560
know the mental part where I can go out and
82
00:04:35.199 --> 00:04:38.639
at the end of eighteen holes, no matter what, be
83
00:04:38.879 --> 00:04:41.720
eighteen proud. I have a friend that came up with
84
00:04:41.759 --> 00:04:45.839
that and it it because it because it can't it
85
00:04:45.879 --> 00:04:48.879
can't beat you up. And to find those little wins
86
00:04:49.439 --> 00:04:52.279
when you're out there, because it's not you know, it's
87
00:04:52.360 --> 00:04:53.839
not something that you go out and win a bunch
88
00:04:53.839 --> 00:04:57.480
of tournaments. I mean, granted, you know, Steve has has
89
00:04:57.600 --> 00:04:59.920
has done that, he's had some success and and I
90
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:03.959
actually isy this summer as well. But I think knowing
91
00:05:04.040 --> 00:05:06.560
that there is a balance in all of that, and
92
00:05:07.279 --> 00:05:09.839
again to your point that you're not defined, you know
93
00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:10.360
by that.
94
00:05:11.040 --> 00:05:14.759
Yeah, you know, I was talking to your dad about
95
00:05:14.759 --> 00:05:17.279
this a little bit earlier today, Nikki, and the fact
96
00:05:17.319 --> 00:05:21.920
of you had a very successful career, You've played very
97
00:05:21.920 --> 00:05:25.079
well when you were young, when you played in college
98
00:05:25.079 --> 00:05:27.319
and that kind of thing, and in a way maybe
99
00:05:27.319 --> 00:05:29.519
you've stepped back a little bit. And he described you
100
00:05:29.600 --> 00:05:33.040
as the rock of the family and the role that
101
00:05:33.079 --> 00:05:35.000
you're playing in it now is a little bit different.
102
00:05:35.079 --> 00:05:35.639
Is that fair?
103
00:05:37.199 --> 00:05:40.319
You know? I think I share that role. I think
104
00:05:40.319 --> 00:05:41.480
I share that role with Steve.
105
00:05:42.360 --> 00:05:46.639
And I would really like politics. I would really like
106
00:05:47.560 --> 00:05:48.040
I would.
107
00:05:47.920 --> 00:05:53.040
Really like my girls to be able to step into
108
00:05:53.519 --> 00:05:57.040
and again, you know what I just spoke about, that
109
00:05:57.839 --> 00:06:01.920
they make it their own and they've got their own back.
110
00:06:03.480 --> 00:06:06.959
They trust in themselves and the decisions that they're making
111
00:06:07.079 --> 00:06:10.800
out there, because that's that's what matters, you know, stepping
112
00:06:10.839 --> 00:06:14.040
back a little bit from from caddying where it's like, no,
113
00:06:14.240 --> 00:06:16.279
you got you go out there and figure it out
114
00:06:16.279 --> 00:06:17.079
and trust yourself.
115
00:06:18.000 --> 00:06:22.040
So let me take that the caddying part. When you
116
00:06:22.120 --> 00:06:25.079
caddied for Steve, was it difficult early because he didn't
117
00:06:25.079 --> 00:06:28.160
I don't know how if you always caddied Obviously he's
118
00:06:28.199 --> 00:06:30.399
had other full time caddies over the course of time.
119
00:06:30.680 --> 00:06:34.959
When you step back into it, how do you manage that?
120
00:06:35.079 --> 00:06:37.800
Because I mean, you guys have a lifelong relationship, and
121
00:06:37.839 --> 00:06:40.000
the relationship on the golf course between a player and
122
00:06:40.000 --> 00:06:41.360
a caddies sometimes is different.
123
00:06:43.079 --> 00:06:47.079
I think I've always approached it as I just want
124
00:06:47.079 --> 00:06:50.720
to be whether I caddy for him or the girls. Yeah,
125
00:06:50.800 --> 00:06:53.240
I just want to be what they need. It's not
126
00:06:53.319 --> 00:06:57.680
about me. What is going to make them comfortable? Trying
127
00:06:57.720 --> 00:07:00.120
to be and think a couple of steps ahead of
128
00:07:00.839 --> 00:07:03.800
what they might need, what they might need to hear.
129
00:07:04.480 --> 00:07:09.160
And you know, sometimes it's saying nothing. Sometimes it is
130
00:07:09.319 --> 00:07:14.279
it is saying something. So again, knowing him as well
131
00:07:14.319 --> 00:07:17.920
as I do that that's made it easier. What's hard
132
00:07:17.959 --> 00:07:20.360
a lot of times is to just like bite my tongue.
133
00:07:20.439 --> 00:07:24.199
Sure in certain situations where I want to say certain things,
134
00:07:24.199 --> 00:07:25.720
but it's like it's not it's not the place and
135
00:07:25.800 --> 00:07:29.240
not the time. So I think I'm just just understanding
136
00:07:29.879 --> 00:07:32.160
you know him, but myself too.
137
00:07:32.160 --> 00:07:34.920
But it would be different for is He or Bobby
138
00:07:35.160 --> 00:07:38.680
because they may maybe obviously personalities are different. Sometimes you
139
00:07:38.800 --> 00:07:40.720
might not say something to Steve that you would say
140
00:07:40.720 --> 00:07:41.480
to Bobby.
141
00:07:41.240 --> 00:07:44.399
Or is he Yes, And a lot of times it's
142
00:07:44.439 --> 00:07:47.800
just being there to listen. What's harder, I think and
143
00:07:47.879 --> 00:07:51.399
has been harder with Steve is saying something and being
144
00:07:51.439 --> 00:07:54.879
okay if he barks back sure, where I'm like, oh
145
00:07:54.879 --> 00:07:58.480
my gosh, like I just made him mad or whatever.
146
00:07:58.519 --> 00:08:02.480
But again, it's good for me to to step into
147
00:08:02.519 --> 00:08:05.800
that where I can be, you know, confident in the
148
00:08:05.879 --> 00:08:09.600
voice that I have and know that I'm I'm saying
149
00:08:09.639 --> 00:08:12.800
the right thing. He may not respond great, but I
150
00:08:12.879 --> 00:08:15.399
know you know in my heart that I'm saying the
151
00:08:15.480 --> 00:08:15.720
right thing.
152
00:08:15.839 --> 00:08:18.560
Yeah, we're chatting with Nicki Stricker and Nicky you mentioned
153
00:08:18.639 --> 00:08:21.720
is He and you said she's got the intangible and
154
00:08:21.800 --> 00:08:23.639
there's something special about her.
155
00:08:23.600 --> 00:08:24.319
Right now.
156
00:08:25.959 --> 00:08:28.399
There isn't and that I want to just make sure
157
00:08:28.439 --> 00:08:32.440
I take nothing away from Bobby because she's doing her
158
00:08:32.480 --> 00:08:37.399
thing and doing great and progressing as she should. But
159
00:08:37.480 --> 00:08:40.519
there is something there always has been about is he
160
00:08:42.799 --> 00:08:47.879
not only physically, but but I feel mentally there's just
161
00:08:49.200 --> 00:08:52.240
you can't I don't you just you can't teach some
162
00:08:52.320 --> 00:08:54.679
of those things that that she seems to in the
163
00:08:54.720 --> 00:08:59.000
big situations. And I've seen it not only you know
164
00:08:59.440 --> 00:09:02.240
this summer, but the times that she's played with Steve
165
00:09:02.320 --> 00:09:05.840
in the in the parent child on that stage in
166
00:09:05.879 --> 00:09:08.840
front of some of those people, where I'm just like
167
00:09:08.840 --> 00:09:13.279
like wow, and she just she gets into a certain
168
00:09:13.519 --> 00:09:17.399
she's just not she's not phased by the situation.
169
00:09:17.840 --> 00:09:20.720
Is let me ask you, as a parent of golfers
170
00:09:21.320 --> 00:09:24.080
and then a coach of golfers, how do those two
171
00:09:24.120 --> 00:09:28.200
paths vary? I mean, you coached obviously in your kids,
172
00:09:28.240 --> 00:09:29.759
and you were coaching them a little bit too, I
173
00:09:29.799 --> 00:09:34.600
would assume. But it's a different path, isn't it being
174
00:09:34.639 --> 00:09:37.159
a college coach or a coach as it is.
175
00:09:37.279 --> 00:09:41.480
I didn't do id I treated those people like I
176
00:09:41.519 --> 00:09:45.000
treated my own kids, and especially on the women's side,
177
00:09:45.799 --> 00:09:49.279
because they they can psych you out within the first
178
00:09:49.320 --> 00:09:52.840
two weeks that you're present, whether you're full of it
179
00:09:53.440 --> 00:09:57.360
or whether you're really serious about it. And uh uh.
180
00:09:57.960 --> 00:10:01.039
In my particular cases, I know a little bit about
181
00:10:01.039 --> 00:10:04.879
who I am. I don't really TV too much. It
182
00:10:04.960 --> 00:10:07.039
is what it is. It's black, it's white, it's up down,
183
00:10:07.080 --> 00:10:12.480
true falls. And sometimes with your own kids, you varied
184
00:10:12.519 --> 00:10:19.159
a little bit. I didn't. They you know, a whole
185
00:10:19.200 --> 00:10:21.919
different ballgame. But the point is.
186
00:10:21.720 --> 00:10:25.279
Is that approval there that.
187
00:10:25.159 --> 00:10:28.120
Has carried over because as the twig is bent, so
188
00:10:28.159 --> 00:10:32.840
the tree grows. And because I feel good because in
189
00:10:32.879 --> 00:10:35.720
my household, my wife took care of business. I was
190
00:10:35.799 --> 00:10:37.759
doing my own thing. You know, we had this, but
191
00:10:38.159 --> 00:10:40.360
there has to be somebody. That's what I mentioned about
192
00:10:40.399 --> 00:10:45.960
her that you know she's at home, she controls where
193
00:10:45.960 --> 00:10:48.519
everybody's got a complow. You know, they all leave, but
194
00:10:48.559 --> 00:10:50.919
they all got to come back, and when they come back,
195
00:10:51.840 --> 00:10:55.000
their assumption is that it's the same as when they left.
196
00:10:55.240 --> 00:10:58.320
It's a good thing. So it's important in her particular
197
00:10:58.399 --> 00:11:03.639
case that she is doing what she's doing. And you
198
00:11:03.679 --> 00:11:07.200
know the business of the girl we have that saying.
199
00:11:07.240 --> 00:11:15.159
You know what I want to say kids anyway, that
200
00:11:15.360 --> 00:11:18.600
the uh, A son is a son until he gets
201
00:11:18.600 --> 00:11:21.720
a wife, a daughter's a daughter for the rest of
202
00:11:21.759 --> 00:11:24.679
your life. Yeah, and I got a bunch of them
203
00:11:25.240 --> 00:11:29.559
and granddaughters again, the same thing. You know, all I
204
00:11:29.600 --> 00:11:31.759
do is sit back and wait for them to ask something.
205
00:11:31.840 --> 00:11:35.240
Right now, I became a resource, not a teacher. So
206
00:11:35.279 --> 00:11:37.799
they come up with something, So that's my opportunity, you know,
207
00:11:38.279 --> 00:11:40.080
to give it. It's no different than Steve. Are we
208
00:11:41.559 --> 00:11:44.679
How about if we go to the farm. Well, what
209
00:11:44.720 --> 00:11:46.840
that means is that I've got you in the car
210
00:11:46.879 --> 00:11:49.919
for one hour and you can't go nowhere. So then
211
00:11:49.960 --> 00:11:53.399
we start. You know, he goes this, and you've heard
212
00:11:53.480 --> 00:11:56.519
this before. You go ahead, and do you believe you're putting?
213
00:11:57.639 --> 00:12:00.000
You believe that you can't have an opinion on a fact?
214
00:12:00.320 --> 00:12:04.519
Right right? Oh yeah, you know, so the longer that
215
00:12:04.559 --> 00:12:06.320
you can keep your putter square to the ball, the
216
00:12:06.320 --> 00:12:10.159
more accuratu're going to be. You believe that the shoulders
217
00:12:10.200 --> 00:12:13.799
make the plane? Well yeah, so your shoulders and the
218
00:12:13.879 -->
00:12:16.519
line are the same, right Yeah. So we go on
219
00:12:16.559 --> 00:12:19.519
and on about four different things. So it's over. So
220
00:12:19.600 --> 00:12:21.799
about a week later, he'll call it, you know, he says,
221
00:12:21.799 --> 00:12:25.840
I hit on something. Oh, but we talked about this
222
00:12:25.919 --> 00:12:28.600
twenty years ago. I said, Well, there you go. But
223
00:12:28.639 --> 00:12:31.080
it's his idea. This is where she what she was
224
00:12:31.120 --> 00:12:34.639
trying to say was is it's got to be his idea,
225
00:12:35.200 --> 00:12:38.600
you know, in his particular case. And the girls are different,
226
00:12:38.679 --> 00:12:40.759
you know, they take it and they run with it.
227
00:12:40.799 --> 00:12:44.279
With him. We have a saying in the hunting thing
228
00:12:44.320 --> 00:12:47.720
when he's we're watching him, well, maybe we'll use this tree,
229
00:12:48.159 --> 00:12:51.159
and you go on, well, maybe I should put it
230
00:12:51.159 --> 00:12:55.000
over a little bit further too, Well maybe that tree
231
00:12:55.000 --> 00:12:58.200
would be better. Three. So everybody does that, they go
232
00:12:58.279 --> 00:13:01.200
on two, three to three different ties before he doesn't.
233
00:13:01.639 --> 00:13:04.240
But you see, that's what makes him good. Sure, you know,
234
00:13:04.320 --> 00:13:07.200
he has his own, his own everything. The way he
235
00:13:07.440 --> 00:13:11.240
views things. If you've ever watched when he makes caricatures
236
00:13:11.240 --> 00:13:16.919
out of matchsticks, nobody knows that beautiful. Or when he's
237
00:13:17.360 --> 00:13:21.519
we used to chip against one another. His methodology of
238
00:13:21.519 --> 00:13:25.200
what he's doing is totally different than mine. That's what
239
00:13:25.320 --> 00:13:27.679
makes them good. Same thing with him. So you know,
240
00:13:27.919 --> 00:13:30.840
I think that. But he came from a structured home
241
00:13:30.879 --> 00:13:34.799
life also, very much so almost to a point maybe
242
00:13:34.799 --> 00:13:36.799
that maybe should have let him go a little bit,
243
00:13:36.879 --> 00:13:42.320
you know, so you know the business of the home life,
244
00:13:42.360 --> 00:13:44.440
and I know what she does. I have an idea
245
00:13:44.480 --> 00:13:47.879
what she does. And I get a chance to talk
246
00:13:47.919 --> 00:13:50.600
to the girls when they feel like they want to
247
00:13:50.639 --> 00:13:53.600
talk about something. But what they know is that we
248
00:13:53.720 --> 00:13:56.840
have their back. They can go and do their things.
249
00:13:57.480 --> 00:13:59.679
You're never going to You're never going to go backwards.
250
00:14:00.120 --> 00:14:02.120
Is going to go forward. And with that they have
251
00:14:02.159 --> 00:14:07.240
their own thing now, Bobby, her mind was tennis.
252
00:14:07.559 --> 00:14:09.240
In Blake Golf for a long time.
253
00:14:09.799 --> 00:14:14.879
Good thing because
now she's twenty five, she's just getting started.
254
00:14:15.320 --> 00:14:17.840
When some of the people who some of the foreigners,
255
00:14:17.879 --> 00:14:20.159
they got beat up since they've been thirteen years old.
256
00:14:20.320 --> 00:14:22.120
By the time they get to twenty two, they're done.
257
00:14:22.279 --> 00:14:24.840
They don't want to play no more. She's got it.
258
00:14:25.000 --> 00:14:26.600
I mean I talked to her enough, and I see
259
00:14:26.639 --> 00:14:29.919
when she's here, we give some suggestions to things, because
260
00:14:29.960 --> 00:14:32.639
you know, we have a deal. It's Dad first and
261
00:14:32.679 --> 00:14:35.039
Grandpa second, and that's the way it should be. You know.
262
00:14:35.240 --> 00:14:37.519
I don't just think Mom gets in there something too yeah.
263
00:14:37.519 --> 00:14:38.720
Oh yeah, well she does too.
264
00:14:38.679 --> 00:14:41.879
Good mentally, mentally mentally more than anything.
265
00:14:41.600 --> 00:14:46.039
Like what the hell are you doing? Anyway? It's uh,
266
00:14:46.759 --> 00:14:51.320
it's great. It's fun to see and the success is
267
00:14:51.360 --> 00:14:54.879
good to watch and good to see sometimes I think
268
00:14:54.960 --> 00:15:01.120
she exceeded with our expectations what she did. Yeah, she wins.
269
00:15:03.000 --> 00:15:07.080
I wanted to ask you that when you go ahead, then.
270
00:15:07.559 --> 00:15:09.200
That was a follow up to your question.
271
00:15:10.519 --> 00:15:15.559
No, because seriously, the success of all of the kids,
272
00:15:15.720 --> 00:15:23.679
you and Steve, the foundation, the tournament, American Family Insurance Tournament.
273
00:15:24.879 --> 00:15:27.399
You ever pinched when you look at your career and
274
00:15:27.440 --> 00:15:30.240
thought about it and how it's developed and where it's going.
275
00:15:30.720 --> 00:15:33.000
What do you think about sometimes when you're just sitting there,
276
00:15:33.039 --> 00:15:36.919
you gotta go, wow, there's a here TPC. The whole
277
00:15:36.919 --> 00:15:39.799
thing is, there's a lot of wonderful things going.
278
00:15:39.600 --> 00:15:43.960
On, absolutely absolutely a lot of wonderful people that you know,
279
00:15:44.000 --> 00:15:47.279
when you talk about the tournament, I mean the the
280
00:15:47.320 --> 00:15:52.879
tournament team that does that. I mean we just and
281
00:15:53.200 --> 00:15:57.679
by we I mean Steve too obviously, Uh, you know,
282
00:15:57.840 --> 00:15:59.759
just kind of show up. But there's a lot of
283
00:15:59.759 --> 00:16:03.159
people that you know that care about what's going on.
284
00:16:03.279 --> 00:16:08.200
And I think the fact that it benefits the Children's
285
00:16:08.200 --> 00:16:11.279
Hospital number one is I mean it's huge. I mean
286
00:16:11.279 --> 00:16:16.399
people want to get behind that. And yeah, I mean
287
00:16:16.440 --> 00:16:19.039
to answer your question, yes, do I you know, do
288
00:16:19.120 --> 00:16:22.639
I pinch myself? There's a lot of times where you know,
289
00:16:22.679 --> 00:16:26.840
I don't feel like i'm you know, I'm a part
290
00:16:26.879 --> 00:16:29.200
of it, but it's.
291
00:16:29.039 --> 00:16:32.159
A it's a bigger It's just it's a bigger group.
292
00:16:31.919 --> 00:16:35.080
Of people that have gotten behind something that they believe
293
00:16:35.120 --> 00:16:39.279
in and and uh, you know, want to support. So
294
00:16:40.240 --> 00:16:42.120
I'm just thankful that I get to be a part
295
00:16:42.159 --> 00:16:42.320
of that.
296
00:16:42.480 --> 00:16:46.679
I would imagine it's also emotionally very humbling in November
297
00:16:46.759 --> 00:16:50.840
or December when you announce the gifting the foundation dollars
298
00:16:50.879 --> 00:16:56.159
that go out because the impact that y'all have on
299
00:16:56.240 --> 00:16:59.440
so many people's lives, not just at the hospital, but
300
00:16:59.799 --> 00:17:02.720
so many people's lives in this area from the tournament
301
00:17:02.759 --> 00:17:05.640
that you and Steve are front center on has to be.
302
00:17:05.640 --> 00:17:13.440
Humbling absolutely that that grant event that we have and
303
00:17:13.519 --> 00:17:16.880
the people that come and come up and say, I mean,
304
00:17:17.200 --> 00:17:20.960
I'm part of I don't know, Steve doesn't really go
305
00:17:21.119 --> 00:17:24.160
through them, but I go through like all of the
306
00:17:24.200 --> 00:17:26.839
grants and to read those things and then you know,
307
00:17:26.960 --> 00:17:29.079
be at that event and have those people come up
308
00:17:29.400 --> 00:17:34.640
and say like, how thankful and yeah, I mean, it's
309
00:17:34.720 --> 00:17:38.960
it's like Christmas on steroids, it really is. And again,
310
00:17:39.240 --> 00:17:42.200
super humbling to just be you know, a part of that.
311
00:17:42.240 --> 00:17:45.519
And again that event and all that goes into that.
312
00:17:45.559 --> 00:17:48.799
I mean that is still like the tournament team. And
313
00:17:48.920 --> 00:17:51.319
there are times where I'm like, gosh, we're just showing
314
00:17:51.400 --> 00:17:53.240
up and being a part of this and we didn't
315
00:17:53.240 --> 00:17:56.640
really like we didn't really do anything. But again, to
316
00:17:56.839 --> 00:17:59.960
get past that and enjoy the fact that to your point,
317
00:18:00.839 --> 00:18:04.200
it's it's impacting a lot of people in a in
318
00:18:04.240 --> 00:18:05.039
a really good way.
319
00:18:05.440 --> 00:18:07.279
Let me finish where kind of where we started, and
320
00:18:07.279 --> 00:18:10.559
that's on golf. What are the strengths of your game? Now?
321
00:18:10.640 --> 00:18:13.480
What's better about your game? Where do you need to
322
00:18:13.519 --> 00:18:17.160
be better? Like just because you compete, I mean you
323
00:18:17.240 --> 00:18:19.880
want to compete, it's part of what you do. Now
324
00:18:19.960 -->
00:18:22.599
you're like you said, maybe offer on the air, but
325
00:18:23.400 --> 00:18:25.200
you'll help the kids when they need it. But you're
326
00:18:25.200 --> 00:18:27.839
also playing your game. Now, what's up with your golf?
327
00:18:28.319 --> 00:18:31.599
You know, I'm just trying to just trying to sort
328
00:18:31.599 --> 00:18:35.480
it out again. It's been a you know, a struggle
329
00:18:35.480 --> 00:18:41.119
for me to not like associate my worth with Sure,
330
00:18:41.200 --> 00:18:43.960
you know how I play, but I also feel like
331
00:18:44.160 --> 00:18:48.279
in that and learning from that that it's wisdom that
332
00:18:48.319 --> 00:18:52.759
I can pass on to the girls and like, have
333
00:18:52.880 --> 00:18:58.079
that a little bit of knowing what certain things feel
334
00:18:58.119 --> 00:19:00.880
like when I'm out there, what's certain things feel like,
335
00:19:01.079 --> 00:19:06.599
and uh, just be able to stay kind of present
336
00:19:07.680 --> 00:19:12.400
and and kind of trend, you know, with them as
337
00:19:12.400 --> 00:19:15.960
they're doing what they're they're trying to do and and
338
00:19:16.079 --> 00:19:18.720
still be relevant and to help to them.
339
00:19:19.000 --> 00:19:22.559
Last one for you, and that is well, yeah, I
340
00:19:22.640 --> 00:19:25.759
remember I cut him off.
341
00:19:26.200 --> 00:19:28.920
And I'm sure there's a lot of guys listening, you know,
342
00:19:29.079 --> 00:19:33.039
but I'm a firm believer that the athletic chromosome is
343
00:19:33.039 --> 00:19:36.240
an X. I've heard this maybe, Yeah, so these guys
344
00:19:36.240 --> 00:19:38.680
who have got these bellies up against the table can
345
00:19:38.720 --> 00:19:43.119
back off. Athletic ability is from the woman, not from them.
346
00:19:43.720 --> 00:19:47.599
So when we talk about these two girls having this stuff, oh,
347
00:19:47.640 --> 00:19:49.119
you know where I came from. You know where it
348
00:19:49.160 --> 00:19:50.039
came from. That's right.
349
00:19:51.480 --> 00:19:54.160
Before he interrupted me. But it is his show. I
350
00:19:54.200 --> 00:19:57.200
was gonna I was going to ask about the challenges
351
00:19:57.240 --> 00:20:02.519
that you've had this summer and springing summer with as
352
00:20:02.559 --> 00:20:05.559
a spouse. When your husband or your wife is going
353
00:20:05.599 --> 00:20:08.240
through something, it's you go through it too. Steve's not
354
00:20:08.279 --> 00:20:10.359
able to play right now, and I'm sure it's it's
355
00:20:10.400 --> 00:20:13.359
got to be grinding him and how you've had to
356
00:20:13.359 --> 00:20:15.640
be part of that process too, because what is his
357
00:20:15.839 --> 00:20:17.759
is what you're going through as well.
358
00:20:18.240 --> 00:20:23.359
Yeah, and you know he's been I do feel like
359
00:20:24.000 --> 00:20:26.480
where golf is concerned, he is in a good place.
360
00:20:27.960 --> 00:20:30.759
He's doing some other things that he likes to do. Uh,
361
00:20:31.039 --> 00:20:34.200
you know, being there for the girls is a big deal.
362
00:20:35.759 --> 00:20:38.039
Doing some fishing. He's got a hunting trip that's coming
363
00:20:38.119 --> 00:20:42.759
up in in October. You know, still physically trying to
364
00:20:42.759 --> 00:20:45.640
get his body sorted out, but he's doing that and
365
00:20:45.680 --> 00:20:49.440
taking the time to do it, and I do feel
366
00:20:49.440 --> 00:20:50.319
like he's in a good place.
367
00:20:50.480 --> 00:20:54.640
Is the freezer full fish and meat in the freezer?
368
00:20:54.920 --> 00:20:58.039
You think you would think.
369
00:20:58.079 --> 00:20:59.640
Have you got a deer up on the wall? A
370
00:20:59.720 --> 00:21:01.839
deer it up on the wall and that not yet?
371
00:21:02.799 --> 00:21:05.839
You know, No, I mean I you know, I was
372
00:21:06.319 --> 00:21:12.079
fortunate enough to to have gotten one here, and I
373
00:21:12.079 --> 00:21:15.880
think a week later Steve shot one. The rack that
374
00:21:15.960 --> 00:21:20.519
I had was nice but inside fit, inside.
375
00:21:22.319 --> 00:21:22.759
Awesome.
376
00:21:23.720 --> 00:21:26.680
So yeah, I just took him down to get a mountain.
377
00:21:27.000 --> 00:21:29.960
They all have a place they will because they were
378
00:21:30.000 --> 00:21:33.279
they were here. Ye got those Oh there's a whole
379
00:21:33.359 --> 00:21:38.119
wall from the other place. Beautiful beautiful, but here we
380
00:21:38.160 --> 00:21:40.359
don't have anything down at the new place yet. One
381
00:21:40.720 --> 00:21:45.319
one lucky guy got one. What's his name, but yeah,
382
00:21:45.519 --> 00:21:47.680

456
00:25:33.799 --> 00:25:36.000

we're going to visit with Vince Sigal, who you covered
466
00:25:58.240 --> 00:26:01.680
last week at the State up at the Leado.
467
00:26:03.480 --> 00:26:04.319
And what an.
468
00:26:04.279 --> 00:26:08.400
Impressive finish for a kid. He's seventeen and playing at
469
00:26:08.480 --> 00:26:10.920
Seymour High School on his way to UW Green Bay
470
00:26:11.319 --> 00:26:14.119
down the road. But give us your impressions on how
471
00:26:14.200 --> 00:26:17.160
he handled what last week was and being such a
472
00:26:17.240 --> 00:26:20.240
young player to win the State am man.
473
00:26:20.319 --> 00:26:22.200
I don't know what you guys are doing at seventeen,
474
00:26:22.279 --> 00:26:25.119
but I was playing in junior golf tournament trying to
475
00:26:25.160 --> 00:26:27.480
break eighty at Grant Park, you know, a fifty five
476
00:26:27.559 --> 00:26:30.680
hundred yard course, and here's this seventeen year old young
477
00:26:30.759 --> 00:26:34.400
man on a seventy two hundred yard course shooting sixty
478
00:26:34.400 --> 00:26:38.200
eight in the final round of the State am tremendously impressive.
479
00:26:38.559 --> 00:26:41.799
What was really funny was he comes to eighteen he's
480
00:26:41.839 --> 00:26:43.759
got a one shot lead and he nukes a seven
481
00:26:43.799 --> 00:26:46.160
iron from one to eighty over the green a back
482
00:26:46.319 --> 00:26:49.240
pin and his ball goes over the green and he's
483
00:26:49.240 --> 00:26:52.599
got like fifteen feets straight uphill to a short sighted
484
00:26:52.680 --> 00:26:55.680
pin and he pitches it to two feet. And later
485
00:26:55.759 --> 00:26:58.000
on in the interview, I asked him about that, the
486
00:26:58.119 --> 00:27:00.279
difficulty of that shot, and he goes, ah, I had
487
00:27:00.279 --> 00:27:01.920
a good light it was. It was really a pretty
488
00:27:01.960 --> 00:27:04.480
simple up and down. And Bob Regarth he texted me
489
00:27:04.559 --> 00:27:11.640
and said, simple up and down. There's nothing simple. Up up, fearless, fearless.
490
00:27:11.680 --> 00:27:15.519
Young man really talented. The ball makes a different sound
491
00:27:15.599 --> 00:27:18.960
coming off his club's face. I'm telling you. You know
492
00:27:19.319 --> 00:27:21.440
when you see a special player and you hear them
493
00:27:21.519 --> 00:27:23.720
hit iron shots and you can you can just tell
494
00:27:24.400 --> 00:27:27.720
that someone's got compresses the ball and has great swing speed.
495
00:27:27.799 --> 00:27:31.079
And this young guy has it in man. He already
496
00:27:31.079 --> 00:27:33.440
committed to Green Bay, he's he's gonna he's a rising
497
00:27:33.519 --> 00:27:36.799
senior at Seymour High School. And it's like, what green
498
00:27:36.839 --> 00:27:38.240
Bay landed a really good player.
499
00:27:39.000 --> 00:27:41.720
Yeah, Dennis, let me ask you this. You didn't see
500
00:27:41.720 --> 00:27:44.400
the shot, you weren't at the tournament, But what is
501
00:27:44.480 --> 00:27:47.880
it in the mental makeup of a player, even at
502
00:27:47.920 --> 00:27:51.559
that age, to not let that moment be too big
503
00:27:51.720 --> 00:27:55.200
for you and to stay in in it being comfortable
504
00:27:55.240 --> 00:27:56.000
being uncomfortable.
505
00:27:56.240 --> 00:27:58.920
Well, and that's a good point, but some of those
506
00:27:58.960 --> 00:28:02.200
people that are that young don't have the the other side,
507
00:28:03.160 --> 00:28:05.880
the other side, and I'm sure he plays golf once
508
00:28:05.920 --> 00:28:10.920
every three weeks, yeah, right, so, and is a totally different.
509
00:28:11.000 --> 00:28:13.640
Then we get our normal people who have a daytime
510
00:28:13.839 --> 00:28:17.119
job and stuff like that. But even still seventeen years
511
00:28:17.119 --> 00:28:19.759
old to win that tournament. Now, really, I look at
512
00:28:19.799 --> 00:28:24.960
it and I say, where are all the players? Where
513
00:28:25.000 --> 00:28:26.680
are they? And this is what we contended to here
514
00:28:26.680 --> 00:28:30.160
a number of times where I'm saying, inside of our state,
515
00:28:30.680 --> 00:28:34.079
can you give me somebody that's big time material?
516
00:28:34.279 --> 00:28:34.480
Yeah?
517
00:28:35.119 --> 00:28:39.000
Not too many? Yeah, And that's back on that again.
518
00:28:39.039 --> 00:28:40.880
I hate to be beaten up on them, but the
519
00:28:41.000 --> 00:28:46.720
fact is is that education, proper education, not doing it
520
00:28:46.880 --> 00:28:49.200
for one hundred dollars an hour, sure, stuff like that.
521
00:28:49.440 --> 00:28:51.359
Now there are some people who are doing that.
522
00:28:51.599 --> 00:28:53.960
The right I think is you're talking about teaching.
523
00:28:53.839 --> 00:28:56.359
Thank goodness for that. And you know, I think that
524
00:28:56.519 --> 00:28:59.319
that education has go on. I think that there has
525
00:28:59.440 --> 00:29:02.000
to be a way that it's provided for some of
526
00:29:02.079 --> 00:29:04.480
our people. I know here, the time that we spend
527
00:29:04.519 --> 00:29:06.480
with our people just to go ahead, to make sure
528
00:29:07.039 --> 00:29:10.079
we're doing the right things so we can pigressing. We
529
00:29:10.200 --> 00:29:13.400
aren't doing it for one time. But you get a
530
00:29:13.480 --> 00:29:15.559
young guy like this. Now we have a seventeen year
531
00:29:15.559 --> 00:29:17.279
old kid here. He shot fifty nine.
532
00:29:17.880 --> 00:29:20.279
Well, and he and Lincoln Hoptman are they want to
533
00:29:20.400 --> 00:29:21.960
know one another. They're going to go both go to
534
00:29:22.039 --> 00:29:22.759
the same college.
535
00:29:23.279 --> 00:29:25.200
That just makes me just rent.
536
00:29:26.480 --> 00:29:29.519
You were hoping they would be playing here Gary. What's
537
00:29:29.599 --> 00:29:31.079
in store for Vince?
538
00:29:31.240 --> 00:29:31.400
Now?
539
00:29:31.519 --> 00:29:35.519
What is winning the state am I mean, it's historical,
540
00:29:35.720 --> 00:29:37.400
the names always going to be on that, but there
541
00:29:37.440 --> 00:29:39.440
are other benefits to it as well.
542
00:29:39.519 --> 00:29:43.400
Correct, Yeah, Well, the big benefit is that now the
543
00:29:43.519 --> 00:29:46.599
USCA passed this RUOK a year or so ago that
544
00:29:47.279 --> 00:29:51.720
the winners of state amateurs are exempt into the US Amateurs.
545
00:29:51.799 --> 00:29:55.559
So he's going to play at Olympic Club in two
546
00:29:55.680 --> 00:29:58.480
or three weeks, you know, a tremendous golf course in
547
00:29:58.559 --> 00:30:02.359
San Francisco. He didn't. He thought he knew there was exemption,
548
00:30:02.519 --> 00:30:04.960
but he thought it was for next year. So it's like,
549
00:30:05.079 --> 00:30:07.599
you know, oh, by the way, here's your here's your trophy,
550
00:30:07.640 --> 00:30:09.279
and you're going to the Olympic Club in three weeks
551
00:30:09.599 --> 00:30:10.400
in the US Amateur.
552
00:30:10.680 --> 00:30:11.839
Really so, really good.
553
00:30:11.960 --> 00:30:14.640
That is a really good perk for winning our state
554
00:30:15.359 --> 00:30:16.000
state Amateur.
555
00:30:16.119 --> 00:30:19.799
Now, yeah, really impressive. And I know when we talked
556
00:30:19.880 --> 00:30:21.640
last week, there was a twelve year old in the
557
00:30:21.680 --> 00:30:24.000
field field. Can you give us the update on what
558
00:30:24.160 --> 00:30:25.119
his tournament was like?
559
00:30:26.279 --> 00:30:29.680
You know, yeah, he just turned twelve on June tenth,
560
00:30:29.839 --> 00:30:32.359
so about a month, you know, six weeks before the
561
00:30:32.400 --> 00:30:36.599
state an so barely twelve, and you know, seventy seven
562
00:30:36.640 --> 00:30:38.880
thousand yard course was a little much for him, as
563
00:30:38.920 --> 00:30:42.480
you can imagine. But the young man has a great
564
00:30:42.559 --> 00:30:44.759
head on his shoulders. His grand he lives with his
565
00:30:44.880 --> 00:30:49.680
grandfather and has a younger brother who plays golf too,
566
00:30:49.759 --> 00:30:52.559
But his grandfather has kind of guided him and shepherded
567
00:30:52.640 --> 00:30:56.039
him along. And you know, really you know, Rob Fernandez
568
00:30:56.079 --> 00:30:59.240
and I interviewed him and really bright, young young guy
569
00:30:59.519 --> 00:31:03.519
and well spoken, particulate, you know, ready for the next
570
00:31:03.559 --> 00:31:05.359
step whatever that's going to be in his life. But
571
00:31:05.920 --> 00:31:08.119
twelve years old, my goodness, playing the seventh I was
572
00:31:08.160 --> 00:31:10.200
in there a golf course. I think he shot you know,
573
00:31:10.759 --> 00:31:12.640
I don't have the scores in from that. It was
574
00:31:12.720 --> 00:31:16.960
like
low eighties the first stage. Yeah, I thought, day Yeah, Yeah,
575
00:31:17.519 --> 00:31:19.519
I mean that is that is pretty hard to do
576
00:31:19.599 --> 00:31:22.279
when you're just turned twelve years old at a state annam.
577
00:31:22.079 --> 00:31:23.640
No kidden no kidden.
578
00:31:23.920 --> 00:31:26.240
Gary, You've spent a majority of your life, for a
579
00:31:26.319 --> 00:31:28.799
big part of it, around the world of golf and
580
00:31:28.920 --> 00:31:31.000
that kind of thing. You mentioned at one time having
581
00:31:31.039 --> 00:31:33.839
a goal of shooting eighty. Uh. If you had a
582
00:31:33.920 --> 00:31:36.319
bucket list, is there anything on that bucket list that
583
00:31:36.359 --> 00:31:38.759
would involve golf that you haven't done yet?
584
00:31:40.160 --> 00:31:42.359
You know, it's something I used to do a little
585
00:31:42.359 --> 00:31:44.799
better than I do now, and I would give maybe
586
00:31:44.839 --> 00:31:46.960
give my baby toe to do it again. And that's
587
00:31:47.000 --> 00:31:49.720
gets some swing speed. I just have lost so much
588
00:31:49.720 --> 00:31:52.440
swing speed over the last eight or ten years, and
589
00:31:52.599 --> 00:31:54.839
I just I can't hit my driver. I played today
590
00:31:54.880 --> 00:31:57.839
in the MAXA noting at Techaway Country Club, and my
591
00:31:58.000 --> 00:32:01.440
four guys I played with Allo told me by forty
592
00:32:01.480 --> 00:32:04.319
to sixty yards on every hole, and that is emasculating.
593
00:32:04.400 --> 00:32:07.599
Let me tell you, I would give anything to get
594
00:32:07.640 --> 00:32:08.480
some swingspeed back.
595
00:32:08.559 --> 00:32:08.839
Dennis.
596
00:32:08.920 --> 00:32:10.039
Maybe I gotta pay you a visit.
597
00:32:10.160 --> 00:32:12.519
Oh, there we go. Now that was coming and I
598
00:32:12.680 --> 00:32:15.519
was just going to ask you, did you I'll give you, Gary,
599
00:32:15.559 --> 00:32:19.119
I'll give you an example what Dennis is talking about.
600
00:32:19.200 --> 00:32:19.359
Here.
601
00:32:19.559 --> 00:32:22.799
We have a local player here. His name is Dave Brown.
602
00:32:23.680 --> 00:32:26.519
He worked through the program that they have here in
603
00:32:26.640 --> 00:32:32.519
the wellness center. He gained eight to ten miles per yeah,
604
00:32:33.039 --> 00:32:36.119
and he's hitting the ball twenty to thirty yards further
605
00:32:36.920 --> 00:32:38.279
than he did one year ago.
606
00:32:39.000 --> 00:32:40.920
So it can be done, Dave.
607
00:32:41.680 --> 00:32:42.839
Dave is in his sixties.
608
00:32:42.920 --> 00:32:44.480
I think he's like sixty five.
609
00:32:44.440 --> 00:32:48.000
Right, old than ninth. It can be done well. And
610
00:32:48.119 --> 00:32:49.720
the other thing you can do, I mean maybe a
611
00:32:49.799 --> 00:32:51.960
hockey stick. Have you thought about that? I know you
612
00:32:52.119 --> 00:32:55.279
just watched I know you just watch Happy Gilmore Too.
613
00:32:55.559 --> 00:32:56.119
And there we go.
614
00:32:56.480 --> 00:33:00.640
What Gary, did you not watch Happy Gilmore Too this weekend?
615
00:33:00.759 --> 00:33:00.880
Is that?
616
00:33:01.480 --> 00:33:03.160
Am I understand? Are my sources correct?
617
00:33:03.960 --> 00:33:07.440
I did watch it. It started streaming. It's premiered on
618
00:33:07.519 --> 00:33:09.680
Netflix on Friday night. I had to watch it. I
619
00:33:09.759 --> 00:33:12.759
know Dennis probably pooh poohs it, but I thought it
620
00:33:12.880 --> 00:33:15.000
was funny. All these golfers in there. I mean, there's
621
00:33:15.039 --> 00:33:16.839
there's so wooden, you know, but but some of the
622
00:33:16.880 --> 00:33:19.079
lines were really funny. I thought The funniest line in
623
00:33:19.079 --> 00:33:22.720
the movie was when Gotty Scheffler punches another golfer in
624
00:33:22.759 --> 00:33:25.559
the stag and gets arrested and they're flapping handcuffs on
625
00:33:25.680 --> 00:33:29.839
him and he says, oh no, not again. So you'd
626
00:33:29.880 --> 00:33:31.680
have to you'd have to follow golf to know what
627
00:33:31.799 --> 00:33:34.640
that meant. But of course everyone who follows golf remembers
628
00:33:34.640 --> 00:33:38.400
them at the PGA. You know, getting give you I'll.
629
00:33:38.319 --> 00:33:44.599
Give you a okay, radial talk. Radial talk is distance. Yeah,
630
00:33:44.680 --> 00:33:48.359
you'll have to find in your body where those components are,
631
00:33:48.920 --> 00:33:52.000
and there are five radio torque pieces in your core
632
00:33:52.519 --> 00:33:57.720
that will help you get more swing speed. I don't
633
00:33:57.759 --> 00:33:58.279
think I'm gonna.
634
00:33:58.279 --> 00:33:59.000
I'm gonna have to come.
635
00:33:59.440 --> 00:34:04.319
He's gonna. We're gonna. He's gonna have to make a
636
00:34:04.359 --> 00:34:06.400
trip up here one of these shows and sit down
637
00:34:06.480 --> 00:34:08.000
next to me. Yeah, then I'll go.
638
00:34:08.159 --> 00:34:10.039
Yeah, make sure you get them early.
639
00:34:10.280 --> 00:34:13.320
Give them the places. So he's been around for fifty
640
00:34:13.400 --> 00:34:14.440
years and he's still don't know this.
641
00:34:14.840 --> 00:34:17.360
You come early, Gary and Denis will put you out
642
00:34:17.400 --> 00:34:19.280

an hour of swing speed.
652
00:34:36.000 --> 00:34:38.039
We'll hit some balls and then maybe you'll say something
653
00:34:38.079 --> 00:34:38.679
nice about me.
654
00:34:38.760 --> 00:34:42.280
And but Gary, if you're the one who's bad stuff

00:35:24.239 --> 00:35:26.559
and go more too. It's good for golf, isn't it.
671
00:35:26.679 --> 00:35:28.719
Even if the movie, Even if some people think the
672
00:35:28.840 --> 00:35:31.320
movie is silly and not good enough, but it isn't
673
00:35:31.360 --> 00:35:32.159
it good for the game.
674
00:35:33.159 --> 00:35:37.199
Yeah, yeah, I think so. I mean, it's funny, it's
675
00:35:37.239 --> 00:35:39.480
got a cult following. And you know, there's this thing,
676
00:35:39.559 --> 00:35:42.119
there's this series on Netflix called Stick right Now with
677
00:35:42.199 --> 00:35:45.000
Owen Wilson. So yeah, it was a pretty funny little
678
00:35:45.840 --> 00:35:49.360
episodic thing. And yeah, there's golf is on TV. It's
679
00:35:49.519 --> 00:35:52.199
it's streaming and you know, baby, people who never played
680
00:35:52.239 --> 00:35:54.000
golf watch that and think it's funny and say, I
681
00:35:54.039 --> 00:35:55.119
got to pick up a golf club.
682
00:35:55.159 --> 00:35:56.000
You know that's right.
683
00:35:57.199 --> 00:35:59.280
And I'll just I'll just leave you this because Paul
684
00:35:59.320 --> 00:36:01.159
Brown we were talking about it before the show began.
685
00:36:01.480 --> 00:36:03.360
He said he thought the first one was stupid and
686
00:36:03.519 --> 00:36:04.840
he thought this one was stupider.
687
00:36:06.039 --> 00:36:07.280
I didn't say stupid.
688
00:36:07.400 --> 00:36:10.440
Well I know, but that's what it sounded like. So
689
00:36:11.960 --> 00:36:14.159
I had four words written down and I will leave
690
00:36:14.199 --> 00:36:17.840

Tennis Dizion with you. We welcome in Vin Siegel. A
759
00:40:02.360 --> 00:40:06.079
week ago, this seventeen year old kid won the state
760
00:40:06.119 --> 00:40:11.960
amateur a betlito, and I can't it doesn't seem right.
761
00:40:12.039 --> 00:40:13.960
I did a tongue in cheek to call you a kid,
762
00:40:14.039 --> 00:40:17.800
but you are seventeen years old. And I listened to
763
00:40:17.880 --> 00:40:22.280
your post round interview, post championship interview, Vince, and one
764
00:40:22.280 --> 00:40:24.679
of the things you said is you had on that
765
00:40:24.840 --> 00:40:29.800
last day a whatever attitude that if it was going good,
766
00:40:30.199 --> 00:40:32.480
you were gonna be relaxed and whatever, and if it
767
00:40:32.599 --> 00:40:34.599
wasn't going good, you were gonna be relaxed and whatever.
768
00:40:34.719 --> 00:40:37.719
Walk us through that mindset of how you approached that
769
00:40:37.840 --> 00:40:38.400
final day.
770
00:40:39.679 --> 00:40:42.360
Yeah, So it was really just, you know, it was
771
00:40:42.440 --> 00:40:44.840
just a matter of having fun out there, and I was,
772
00:40:44.920 --> 00:40:48.320
you know, I had my older and younger brother on
773
00:40:48.440 --> 00:40:53.000
the bag. They were kind of switching off days last week.
774
00:40:53.079 --> 00:40:55.320
But it was just it was a matter of having fun.
775
00:40:55.559 --> 00:40:58.199
And I really just you know, I didn't really care
776
00:40:58.239 --> 00:40:59.920
what was gonna happen that fun around as long as
777
00:41:00.079 --> 00:41:02.519
you know we had a good time out there, I
778
00:41:02.599 --> 00:41:03.199
don't really care.
779
00:41:04.920 --> 00:41:07.599
And well did you kind of chuckle at that? Because
780
00:41:07.679 --> 00:41:10.960
it takes different mentalities in order to manage your way
781
00:41:11.000 --> 00:41:13.000
around the golf course, and that is one of the
782
00:41:13.079 --> 00:41:13.800
ways you can do it.
783
00:41:14.920 --> 00:41:18.519
H Well, no question know that, Uh he can he
784
00:41:18.599 --> 00:41:20.760
can do that. I've never seen him. I didn't go
785
00:41:20.840 --> 00:41:23.800
up to Wisham play, but the fact is that he won. Yeah,
786
00:41:24.119 --> 00:41:29.719
so you know, uh, winning isn't all fundamental. Sure, Yeah,
787
00:41:29.880 --> 00:41:31.280
there's a lot of mental involved.
788
00:41:31.400 --> 00:41:31.719
Uh huh.
789
00:41:31.920 --> 00:41:34.920
So evidently he's got something to work with. How come
790
00:41:35.000 --> 00:41:36.199
you didn't come to Wisconsin?
791
00:41:39.440 --> 00:41:41.480
You know, I think I don't know. Green Bay is
792
00:41:41.519 --> 00:41:43.880
a great fit for me. Coach rank out there is
793
00:41:44.079 --> 00:41:46.639
really awesome. So it's just I think it's it's a
794
00:41:46.679 --> 00:41:47.519
perfect spot for me.
795
00:41:48.440 --> 00:41:51.239
Well, and you can always transfer you He's buddies with
796
00:41:51.920 --> 00:41:55.199
Lincoln Hotman, right. I mean you've played some with Lincoln, correct,
797
00:41:55.199 --> 00:41:58.079
and he's going to Green Bay. And so I wondered,
798
00:41:58.400 --> 00:42:00.719
in your relationship and knowing Lincoln, have you come down
799
00:42:00.760 --> 00:42:04.760
and played here yet at TPC Wisconsin I.
800
00:42:05.280 --> 00:42:08.159
Played for I played there for the Cup matches last year.
801
00:42:09.960 --> 00:42:14.199
I didn't play with Lincoln, just me and him, But yeah,
802
00:42:14.239 --> 00:42:16.000
I mean, I know a bunch of the guys on
803
00:42:16.079 --> 00:42:20.840
the GB golf team, Mason hop Brett Wheeland and Lincoln's
804
00:42:20.920 --> 00:42:22.519
just that was also a big factor.
805
00:42:22.599 --> 00:42:25.480
And you know going there, that is a big factor
806
00:42:25.599 --> 00:42:27.159
that you're going to get people to do it. But
807
00:42:27.880 --> 00:42:31.920
you know, advice is to get on the biggest stage
808
00:42:32.000 --> 00:42:34.519
that you can get on, and to go to the
809
00:42:35.719 --> 00:42:38.000
places where you can get you're butt handed to you
810
00:42:38.119 --> 00:42:40.760
when you play. That's when you're going to learn. However,
811
00:42:41.000 --> 00:42:43.400
me saying that he can always do that during the
812
00:42:43.440 --> 00:42:45.559
summer months, well he can play.
813
00:42:46.000 --> 00:42:49.079
He's going to get to play in the US Amateur because.
814
00:42:48.880 --> 00:42:51.440
It's school number one, sure, and then it's the golf.
815
00:42:51.679 --> 00:42:54.039
So we were just talking to Gary Demato who joined
816
00:42:54.079 --> 00:42:57.079
us in the previous segment Vincent and talked about you
817
00:42:57.199 --> 00:43:00.880
weren't aware that the qualification into the US Amateur is
818
00:43:00.960 --> 00:43:02.800
for this year and that's a couple of weeks down
819
00:43:02.800 --> 00:43:03.840
the road. How cool is that?
820
00:43:04.800 --> 00:43:05.039
Yeah?
821
00:43:05.599 --> 00:43:05.960
Well I was.
822
00:43:06.159 --> 00:43:06.440
I was.
823
00:43:06.719 --> 00:43:10.199
I just kind of looked at the the like information
824
00:43:10.320 --> 00:43:15.599
about the US Amateur like very slightly before my round
825
00:43:15.719 --> 00:43:19.559
on Thursday because I did not you know, I wasn't
826
00:43:19.599 --> 00:43:22.400
expecting to go and win that turn around. I was
827
00:43:22.440 --> 00:43:24.960
just trying to you know, to be honest, I was
828
00:43:25.000 --> 00:43:28.519
just trying to make the cut going in there. But yeah,
829
00:43:28.559 --> 00:43:31.320
I ended up playing really solid, and it's just it's
830
00:43:31.360 --> 00:43:33.920
gonna be a crazy couple of weeks, but I'm ready
831
00:43:33.960 --> 00:43:34.159
for it.
832
00:43:34.480 --> 00:43:35.159
Yeah, there you go.
833
00:43:35.360 --> 00:43:37.440
Good
for you, Benca two parter.
834
00:43:38.000 --> 00:43:40.360
Tell us a little bit about your family golf, why
835
00:43:40.480 --> 00:43:43.559
you picked the sport of golf, and what would you
836
00:43:43.679 --> 00:43:45.440
say your strengths are as a player.
837
00:43:46.960 --> 00:43:51.559
Yeah, well, my dad got my older brother, Garrett into golf.
838
00:43:51.599 --> 00:43:54.440
He plays at UW Star right now, and he kind
839
00:43:54.480 --> 00:43:57.000
of just paved the way for me and my younger brother.
840
00:43:58.199 --> 00:44:02.360
He's playing the juniors with me down in your scene
841
00:44:02.400 --> 00:44:06.960
right now. But it's just it's really been a crazy
842
00:44:07.039 --> 00:44:10.360
couple of years. We just started playing tournaments around twenty
843
00:44:10.440 --> 00:44:15.920
twenty one. And yeah, I mean, I think one of
844
00:44:15.960 --> 00:44:18.400
my strengths, one of my best strengths, is probably my
845
00:44:18.599 --> 00:44:23.920
mental game. I don't really expect too much when I
846
00:44:24.039 --> 00:44:24.559
go on and play.
847
00:44:24.559 --> 00:44:25.760
It's just for me.
848
00:44:25.880 --> 00:44:29.760
It's just always having fun and I'm really good at scrambling.
849
00:44:29.840 --> 00:44:32.239
I get up and down a lot, which has to
850
00:44:32.400 --> 00:44:34.079
just be on the green in the first place. But
851
00:44:34.199 --> 00:44:36.000
you know, you like that's gone.
852
00:44:36.880 --> 00:44:38.000
That's called playing golf.
853
00:44:38.400 --> 00:44:40.880
Yeah, And Gary was just talking about that's a good thing.
854
00:44:41.079 --> 00:44:44.039
Gary was Gary Demato was just talking about the up
855
00:44:44.079 --> 00:44:47.280
and down that you made to secure the win on
856
00:44:47.400 --> 00:44:49.800
the tournament. And you thought it was a pretty simple
857
00:44:49.880 --> 00:44:52.800
and easy shot, and Tis pointed out that you play
858
00:44:52.840 --> 00:44:54.679
a lot of golf, so it ended up being easy.
859
00:44:54.760 --> 00:44:57.480
But that last hole that you played, can you do
860
00:44:57.599 --> 00:44:58.440
you recreate it?
861
00:44:58.519 --> 00:44:58.719
Have you?
862
00:44:58.880 --> 00:45:01.360
Have you thought about going to the final hole of
863
00:45:01.400 --> 00:45:04.079
that tournament with a one shot lead and what happened
864
00:45:04.119 --> 00:45:05.039
to you on that hole?
865
00:45:06.599 --> 00:45:06.800
Yeah?
866
00:45:07.400 --> 00:45:11.159
I mean I didn't really know where I was at,
867
00:45:11.599 --> 00:45:14.119
like on the leaderboard, because I'd never look at the
868
00:45:14.159 --> 00:45:16.599
leaderboard when I'm playing. But I knew I was gonna be,
869
00:45:16.880 --> 00:45:18.679
you know, up there, because I had a bunch of
870
00:45:18.760 --> 00:45:21.679
cameras following me or whatever. But I had a perfect drive,
871
00:45:21.760 --> 00:45:24.079
and I guess I had too much adrenaline and hit
872
00:45:24.119
--> 00:45:26.840
a seven iron just a little over the dream and
873
00:45:27.039 --> 00:45:29.920
my ball was sitting up perfect for that third shot,
874
00:45:30.440 --> 00:45:32.440
and it was it was a lot easier up and
875
00:45:32.519 --> 00:45:35.159
down compared to the the other two I had on
876
00:45:35.239 --> 00:45:38.360
the back nine, I had one, uh I'm sixteen where
877
00:45:38.400 --> 00:45:41.480
I was on at back right bunker, so that one
878
00:45:41.599 --> 00:45:44.440
was probably the trickiest one of all week. So it
879
00:45:44.559 --> 00:45:48.079
was a lot easier compared to uh to sixteen, that's
880
00:45:48.159 --> 00:45:48.480
for sure.
881
00:45:49.320 --> 00:45:49.519
Yeah.
882
00:45:50.039 --> 00:45:52.239
What's it been like the last couple of days? How's
883
00:45:52.280 --> 00:45:55.239
your world change? Anything interesting or what's the reaction?
884
00:45:55.440 --> 00:45:55.599
Ben?
885
00:45:57.960 --> 00:46:02.519
Yeah, it's just I've been on basic cloud nine scause
886
00:46:02.599 --> 00:46:05.639
it just doesn't feel real winning that big of a tournament.
887
00:46:07.199 --> 00:46:09.079
But yeah, it's just it's been a lot of fun
888
00:46:09.280 --> 00:46:11.360
and we're already, you know, playing all the tournaments, so
889
00:46:12.320 --> 00:46:14.920
got to stay ready for this tournament. Keep it going.
890
00:46:15.880 --> 00:46:18.800
Yeah, so the Junior Masters, you're in Racine. How was it?
891
00:46:19.039 --> 00:46:20.920
I assume today was day one? How did that go?
892
00:46:21.960 --> 00:46:22.159
Yep?
893
00:46:22.360 --> 00:46:25.320
Day one was the seeding the short place leading. I
894
00:46:25.440 --> 00:46:28.480
was playing really solid. I was I think five unders
895
00:46:28.519 --> 00:46:32.159
through sixteen and I doubled the part three last hole.
896
00:46:32.239 --> 00:46:35.239
But it was whatever. It's my first time playing the chorus,
897
00:46:35.320 --> 00:46:38.960
so I don't really expect too much and.
898
00:46:39.480 --> 00:46:41.679
Give us a sense of what what it looks like
899
00:46:41.760 --> 00:46:44.440
when you get to go out to Olympic in a
900
00:46:44.519 --> 00:46:45.119
couple of weeks.
901
00:46:46.039 --> 00:46:50.440
Yeah, I still I'm we're still getting situated on what
902
00:46:50.559 --> 00:46:54.920
we're doing for traveling and all that. Sure, but yeah,
903
00:46:54.960 --> 00:46:58.199
I'm pretty sure. Our practice round is the tenth and
904
00:46:58.320 --> 00:47:02.199
it starts the eleventh. So no, I just I'm not
905
00:47:02.280 --> 00:47:03.960
sure who I'm going to have Caddy. It's going to
906
00:47:04.000 --> 00:47:06.760
be one of my brothers or I mean maybe both
907
00:47:06.800 --> 00:47:08.039
of them at that part.
908
00:47:08.079 --> 00:47:10.480
Sure, yeah, but that's awesome.
909
00:47:10.519 --> 00:47:12.039
I don't know, it's going to be exciting.
910
00:47:12.960 --> 00:47:15.480
Well, just we wanted to say thank you for jumping
911
00:47:15.519 --> 00:47:19.079
on with us. Congratulations, keep doing what you're doing. Dennis

Awesome, thank you very much, Thank you for having me out.
918
00:47:36.159 --> 00:47:39.559
Good good luck, vinch Vince Siegel, thanks doing that out
919
00:47:40.000 --> 00:47:43.519
and play in the US Amateur. That something isn't that
920
00:47:43.679 --> 00:47:47.159
crazy And he didn't think about it at seventeen years old.
921
00:47:47.440 --> 00:47:51.360
It didn't cross his mind that that would be next possibly.
922
00:47:51.559 --> 00:47:53.800
Now he's going to San Francisco to play golf.
923
00:47:54.320 --> 00:47:55.480
Right, how good is that?
924
00:47:56.719 --> 00:47:57.760
Pretty exciting stuff.
925
00:47:57.840 --> 00:48:01.920
Well, that's a good mentor, you know, other youngsters should
926
00:48:02.119 --> 00:48:04.559
take notice of what's going on. Here's a guy came
927
00:48:04.599 --> 00:48:08.079
out of note, you know. And I keep going back
928
00:48:08.119 --> 00:48:11.079
to this girl that was played in the Women's Open.
929
00:48:11.599 --> 00:48:14.960
She was fourteen years old. She was tied for the leader,
930
00:48:15.079 --> 00:48:17.519
was leading the tournament. So I went to watch her play.
931
00:48:17.599 --> 00:48:19.400
I played, you know, watch her play when she played
932
00:48:19.400 --> 00:48:24.400
around fourteen years old. Unbelievable. Well, how young? Well look
933
00:48:24.400 --> 00:48:26.639
at what we got. These guys here, these young guys here,
934
00:48:26.679 --> 00:48:29.960
and they drive the ball three hundred and they were
935
00:48:30.039 --> 00:48:33.360
teed off because he lost the long drive contest by
936
00:48:33.400 --> 00:48:36.599
the yard. I said, well, what's the how far did
937
00:48:36.639 --> 00:48:39.280
you hit it? He says three forty six? I mean,
938
00:48:39.400 --> 00:48:43.920
come on whatever. Anyway, it's cool, very cool. I'm happy
939
00:48:43.960 --> 00:48:46.920
for this guy and this and the message he's sending
940
00:48:46.960 --> 00:48:48.519
out to a lot of people in the state.
941
00:48:48.920 --> 00:48:50.159
Yeah, it's really good stuff.
942
00:48:50.360 --> 00:48:51.119

Back on Talking Golf from TPC, Wisconsin along with Mike
1007
00:52:08.599 --> 00:52:12.079
Keller and Dennis Tzianni. I'm Paul Brown, Dennis. I was
1008
00:52:12.159 --> 00:52:14.360
talking with some of the members the other day and
1009
00:52:14.880 --> 00:52:16.760
all of us talking about our game and some of
1010
00:52:16.800 --> 00:52:21.000
the issues and what is not working for that particular
1011
00:52:21.119 --> 00:52:23.320
player and that kind of thing. And one of the
1012
00:52:23.400 --> 00:52:26.440
subjects that came up, and it's the consensus was a
1013
00:52:26.519 --> 00:52:29.960
lot of people don't do it consistently very often,
and
1014
00:52:30.119 --> 00:52:32.639
that's hitting the ball in the middle of the club phase.
1015
00:52:33.559 --> 00:52:36.079
How do you do that and what causes you not
1016
00:52:36.280 --> 00:52:37.000
to do it right?
1017
00:52:37.960 --> 00:52:39.960
Well, if you're not hitting it in the middle, then
1018
00:52:40.599 --> 00:52:43.440
it could be alignment, it could be where this positioned
1019
00:52:44.039 --> 00:52:45.880
on the circle. You got to make sure that it's
1020
00:52:45.960 --> 00:52:49.920
positioned right when at the apex of the circle, or
1021
00:52:50.159 --> 00:52:52.639
they don't have the proper hand action to turn it
1022
00:52:52.760 --> 00:52:54.239
back to square. You know, you turn it, do you
1023
00:52:54.280 --> 00:52:57.639
get it on the square or they go. Now, men
1024
00:52:57.840 --> 00:53:00.800
get away with that because they have stronger hands. Women
1025
00:53:00.960 --> 00:53:02.920
difficult to do. So you've got to make sure that
1026
00:53:03.079 --> 00:53:08.599
you teach them the clubhead never stops moving. What only
1027
00:53:08.679 --> 00:53:11.320
thing that moves the clubhead is your hands. So in
1028
00:53:11.480 --> 00:53:14.840
this swing, your hands should never stop moving. And you'll
1029
00:53:14.880 --> 00:53:17.519
see ninety percent of them get up there and they
1030
00:53:17.679 --> 00:53:21.199
lock their hands and they'll do something. And there's one
1031
00:53:21.239 --> 00:53:24.119
other big point, and people have picked this up. When
1032
00:53:24.159 --> 00:53:27.320
you address the ball, there's an angle between your left
1033
00:53:27.440 --> 00:53:31.519
arm and your chest. What happens with men mostly is
1034
00:53:31.559 --> 00:53:33.079
when they get up to the top of their swing,
1035
00:53:33.559 --> 00:53:36.599
their core is very strong and they move their core,
1036
00:53:37.079 --> 00:53:40.280
but their arm doesn't move with it. Their arm moves backwards.
1037
00:53:41.639 --> 00:53:43.039
You're never going to hit it in the middle of
1038
00:53:43.079 --> 00:53:44.840
the club then, so you got to make sure at
1039
00:53:44.880 --> 00:53:47.840
the end of your back swing that you anticipate this
1040
00:53:48.000 --> 00:53:51.159
movement and your left arm. You know where your arm is,
1041
00:53:51.280 --> 00:53:53.800
not your forearm. Your left arm moves to get in
1042
00:53:53.880 --> 00:53:55.960
front of you. I'll send you a.
1043
00:53:55.960 --> 00:54:01.119
Bill, well, you won't pay it. We talked about this
1044
00:54:01.199 --> 00:54:03.360
a week ago, but now we're in another one of
1045
00:54:03.400 --> 00:54:06.480
these where the heat is it can be oppressive and
1046
00:54:07.280 --> 00:54:09.920
that has an impact on golfers to play. But my
1047
00:54:10.119 --> 00:54:12.679
question is more about what it does to the golf
1048
00:54:12.719 --> 00:54:15.719
course and the stresses that this puts on a golf course.
1049
00:54:15.840 --> 00:54:17.320
And we don't have a ton of time, but can
1050
00:54:17.360 --> 00:54:17.840
you speak to that.
1051
00:54:17.920 --> 00:54:21.320
Well, well, you know, we we did. We tried to
1052
00:54:21.400 --> 00:54:24.159
keep we did made a mistake, we didn't. We tried
1053
00:54:24.199 --> 00:54:26.920
to keep the golf course the same as the tournament.
1054
00:54:27.360 --> 00:54:27.960
We can't do it.
1055
00:54:28.119 --> 00:54:30.239
Too much stress, too much, cutting, too much this. And
1056
00:54:30.960 --> 00:54:33.400
now you couple that with this one hundred degree temperature.
1057
00:54:33.440 --> 00:54:35.840
Now you can get poeanna, which a lot of courses
1058
00:54:35.920 --> 00:54:41.440
have heer pull with one hundred degrees, with humidity and
1059
00:54:41.559 --> 00:54:45.039
temperature of one fifty, a combination of one fifty, you
1060
00:54:45.119 --> 00:54:47.599
can lose them in four hours. So you know, our
1061
00:54:47.719 --> 00:54:50.840
course was really really stressed and I could see that.
1062
00:54:51.000 --> 00:54:53.719
So we went ahead and resotted those Oh you can't
1063
00:54:53.760 --> 00:54:57.039
tell the difference already that we went ahead and I
1064
00:54:57.079 --> 00:54:58.639
don't know how many people would do that or have
1065
00:54:58.719 --> 00:55:01.199
the wherewithal We have our own nursery so we could
1066
00:55:01.239 --> 00:55:07.519
do that. But uh, you know we water the chemical things. Yeah,
1067
00:55:07.760 --> 00:55:10.519
we did that rarifying, not the plugs the other one,
1068
00:55:11.079 --> 00:55:14.480
so we get proper air and uh, you know, some
1069
00:55:14.639 --> 00:55:19.039
of this, some of this lightning with the nitrogen really helped.
1070
00:55:19.239 --> 00:55:22.280
But there's no doubt that this these temperatures and humidity
1071
00:55:22.840 --> 00:55:25.360
stresses all golf courses, all of them.
1072
00:55:25.400 --> 00:55:27.719
It really does. And you know we're lucky because we're
1073
00:55:27.719 --> 00:55:30.639
one hundred percent bent. You get some that are older
1074
00:55:31.039 --> 00:55:33.599
and they got poh, you can watch those You can
1075
00:55:33.679 --> 00:55:37.320
watch those fairways turn purple in about four hours. It's
1076
00:55:37.360 --> 00:55:41.360
a tough deal, Green Superintendent. You know, so valuable right now,
1077
00:55:41.719 --> 00:55:43.480
somebody to watch those things to go on.
1078
00:55:44.400 --> 00:55:47.280
Yeah, and and and I won't finish this thought, but
1079
00:55:47.400 --> 00:55:50.599
I was watching yesterday at the three M at TPC
1080
00:55:50.760 --> 00:55:53.280
in the Twin Cities, and when they were showing uh,
1081
00:55:53.480 --> 00:55:56.760
the players warming up on that practice tea area, it
1082
00:55:57.239 --> 00:56:00.679
was beat up, holy up. One of the things you
1083
00:56:00.880 --> 00:56:03.000
talked about in the tournament here. And you want to
1084
00:56:03.039 --> 00:56:04.840
make sure that you
keep the practice area in the
1085
00:56:04.880 --> 00:56:06.360
team grounds good for our members.
1086
00:56:06.400 --> 00:56:08.920
We're gonna cut it in half and we're gonna reside
1087
00:56:08.960 --> 00:56:10.920
those spots that are torn up. So we want to
1088
00:56:10.920 --> 00:56:13.480
have the dipsy doodles so that half will be ready
1089
00:56:13.519 --> 00:56:15.800
in the spring, and then this fall we'll do the
1090
00:56:15.880 --> 00:56:17.760
other one, and when that one's ready to be beat
1091
00:56:17.840 --> 00:56:19.760
up in the spring, we'll have another one. So I
1092
00:56:19.880 --> 00:56:21.679
have to stay ahere. But I don't know how many
1093
00:56:21.719 --> 00:56:23.960
people have as big of a team and big of a.
