So you sell the company, right?

At this point, you said you retired from golf.

I would use the term quit.

Yeah.

Because when you retire at 25, I mean, you obviously weren't being successful.

Yeah, yeah.

So now what?

I quit because I met my wife.

I took her out to Caddy for me.

In the first four years that I, four and a half years, I played professional golf. I missed six cuts total. And for those of you that are watching that don't understand golf, Ryan knows you got to play well on Thursday. You got to perform on Thursday, Friday, or you don't get paid on the weekend. Yep. I took her out and it was a combination of at

that time the Hooters tour and the Nike tour, which I don't even know what the level below the

PJ tour is called today because I'm so out of the golf scene. What's that what's the...

Corn Fairy? Yeah, Corn Fairy tour. That's what it was. But it was a Nike tour back then.

Got it. And I missed 12 cuts in a row. And we were in Sykeston, Missouri, and I finished double bogey, bogey, three jacking to miss my 12th cut in a row. And at that time, I was probably one of the top 10 putters in the world. There was like a Dave Pell's World Pudding championship back then and always finishing the top five for the three four years they had it but that was kind of my game and

I remember throwing my putter which I will show to you that I got from Tiger he gave to me as

a gift and almost broke it and it bounced off my bag and almost hit her oh and didn't hit her

but almost her because she was caddying for it. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

And we got done and we went back to the best Western. We were staying in. You remember those days in baseball, right? And I said, hey, why don't we go home? She's all, what do you mean? You want to drive all the way back to California? I said, yeah, I think I'm done. she said, why?

And she was kind of mad at me.

I said, yeah, I think I'm done. She said, why? And she was kind of mad at me. I said, because you're more important to me than playing golf. And there's a lot of people that can coin their terms, you know, whatever, whooped or whatever, but I knew that she was the one for me. And we drove back and I was trying to get home Sunday. So I missed a cut on Thursday. Sunday was Father's Day. Wanted to get her home in time to see her father. So we drove straight through from Sykes to Missouri. I think it was like 21 hours. Got her home and on Father's Day I asked her dad if I could marry her. Oh, wow. And for permission and I said, Mr. Holland, I have no idea how I'm going to make money. I have no idea what I'm going to do. I'm a college dropout. I have no skill sets, but I promise you, I will take care of you. But didn't you already sell the business? I did. But I'm unemployed to him, right? This is an oil guy who didn't have a high school diploma who had become an engineer for like era energy just through hard work and grit.

Yeah, yeah. And I knew, and I'd never even met him before. And I knew he wasn't going to trust me to be able to take care of his daughter. Got it. We ended up, uh, moving in to, they had like a, not a guest house like a guest bedroom uh with an onsuit and that type

of stuff in their house and kind of they were on one end and we were on the other end and we ended up
