You ready?

I was born ready.

Welcome to the Advisory Opinions Podcast. This is David French with Sarah Izger.

Before we dive into the election and the DOG anti-trust lawsuit against Google, which is going to be an interesting discussion I promise.

Sarah, I have to share an athletic accomplishment.

This is hard to believe.

I spent in my youth and by youth I mean basically starting sometime in college and running through until I was almost 30 years old, real effort into becoming decent and golf.

I had to go to the golf course and I progressed from misery to mediocrity.

And then after I had kids I realized if I wanted to transition from mediocrity to sort of adequacy, would be many, many, many, many, many more hours and many more dollars.

And I just went and that just went in the cards. So I kind of dropped golf. But once a year I play in a scramble. Once a year.

I don't even own clubs anymore Sarah.

I borrow clubs for this scramble. And this year this Sunday was that once per year on a beautiful fall day in Tennessee for the first time in my entire life, I obtained a golf accomplishment.

I won the closest to the pin award on a 165 yard par three with the whole up at the at the very back of the green on a steep slope.

I hit it from 165 yards to within 10 feet of the whole.

And it was glorious because you know they have people are monitoring this so that nobody can cheat.

So they had the volunteers monitoring it and like Bay Booth, I called my shot.

I walked up with my iron and I said, watch me win.

Closes to the pin completely joking knowing it was never going to happen.

And then I just did it.

And I acted like I do it every week. It was fantastic.

And I have to brag.

I'm not sure that's an accomplishment. It sounds like an accident. Those are different accomplishments are things you work toward and invest in.
