Haha, we had the conversation yesterday in the car of how Uncle Dan is their uncle, the eldest chimed in that he’s dad’s family, which is accurate.

You are overestimating my maturity with that post :LOL:
It has been incredibly fun following Mark’s journey into the game, and the excitement he feels after going to the range with new clubs, hitting that one shot during a session that just sends electricity through his body, and etc.
I’m going to have to get him out to a THP gathering so he can see how awesome you guys are.

oh you delightfully inappropriate soul.
Great listen. I have 3 friends that are brother and are Tongan. They started playing last year and they have got bitten bad!! Like real bad. It’s both awesome and hilarious.. these are all 6’6” 250 pound beasts of men that all played college football and thought the game was dumb till they finally tried it.

I will add. That for my Tongan friends Tony Finau. Someone that looked like them, talked like them becoming a big deal really helped them decide it was cool enough to really try.
Halfway done after drive into work this am. Second half will be for commute home. Is Mark a THP member?

He’s already down or at least on the edge of the rabbit hole. Its the next logical progression to become a crazie lol. Especially with such a golf nut as a BIL (y)

Fun conversation. Love the “outsider” perspective.
Also back pondering on the Eastside golf site. :love:

Whiskey thread and the Sports talk subforum would never be the same.

Thanks for tuning in my friend!
Ok. Something that struck me. When Mark refers to JT and Spieth as “little guys”. I have never met Mark but I can tell right now, dudes a monster. :LOL::LOL:
Great listen. Really enjoyed this one. Mark is very relatable, I’m a fan. If I didn’t have health insurance through work, I’d probably give him a holler lol.

My kinda guy!
I think with Brooks is that he earned fame, then created a persona that he thought was the right one that was unauthentic and then forgot how to be real.
think bagger Vance. The movie is about how a guys swing is jacked up because he forgot how to he his true authentic self.
