I had to read it several times…you never know if Dax is using Louisiana speak or not. Can get a tad confusing. 🤣
 
Let me say something because yesterday was a pretty emotional day for me.
And those that know me, know I dont have emotions, so that is strange.

The last few weeks have been mayhem. Unrelated to this thing, but it will get me there.
I had a call with Gordon and team that was a lot of fun. Talking about the execution of this event and them making sure that every ounce possible is there to make you guys feel amazing, because Callaway Golf has designed the best products in the world that you are going to see before anybody.

Then I got to speak with Nick, you will meet him and those in previous events, have met him. He is their Chief Marketing Officer. He is someone that I consider a friend, but more importantly than that, he again, reiterated, how much Callaway cares about the people coming and the people following along.

You are seeing a trend.

Fast forward to a few days ago, @jdtox and I are on a call with AT. Big shoes to fill, and no person in the world that I am more confident in, in filling them than this man. We went over every aspect, making sure, once again, that THPers (both present and those following) understand how much this means to them. They are close to being ready.

Then fast forward to last night and speaking (via text) with the man behind this entire thing. Jason Finley. He is known as a villain, and, well, honestly, he is a villain. At least when he needs to be. I won't rehash what he has gone through the last handful of years (not including having to deal with me) or what he just went through or even his recovery, but what was the first thing he said to me "Let me know when the live thread is up, so I can be a part of it".

Ya know, nearly 18 years ago, when I started this thing, I had a plan. I had goals. I had a vision. Most of what you are seeing laid out across this website, forum, etc was part of that vision and plan. I was asked on the video preview if I saw this being what it is, and the answer was yes. I did, because of what it entails. I did, because of what our community stands for (and doesn't). I did, because of the brand involved. Most importantly, I did, because there were a few constants. Those being the people.

We get asked a lot about why we work with who we do. It starts with they have to make products we believe in. It ends with the people behind the products. I am humbled to be able to have those choices, at least now, and will forever be grateful for all of them. But I will always stand by the people that care about this community. I don't care about me, or those close to me in this specific situation. Its about the ones that care about the people here.

We are just over 2 weeks away from the greatest amateur event ever created. That first night I will pour one out for Jason, as he was 86ed (get it, 8 and 6) from this event for the very first time, and will celebrate the newcomers that are making this all possible. Be humble. Be thankful. Understand there is no "deserve" (and that will make more sense once it starts), but know going in, you are surrounded by people that genuinely care. It's not an act. It's not putting on a show. They care.

Team Our Time (horrible name by the way, but I am embracing it). You are barely over 2 weeks away from this very special journey. I would tell you to be prepared, but you will not be. Its not possible, because its that ******* good!
