| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Fairways to Fortune. We're here live at Pebble Beach, at the Pebble Beach Pro Am, and I'm with two professionals, so I'm blessed. I'm David Meltzer here with my co-host, the amazing PGA Pro of the Pros I call him Virgil Herring. Thank you for joining us. Thanks for having me on again. This is such a great opportunity, Fairways to Fortune. It's going to be a great show. And what a special guest we have today, Dave. How blessed are we? Not only is he a Hall of Fame football player, not only is he a Hall of Fame entrepreneur, but he's a hell of a golfer. So I want to start there. Welcome, Marshall Falk, our future PGA Pro. Thanks for having. |
| 0:38.4 | Senior, senior, yeah, they had a senior tour. |
| 0:42.9 | Yeah. |
| 0:43.1 | Speaking of which, where you got to play with Marshall yesterday, you know, what do you see |
| 0:48.0 | when you get to a level of a Hall of Fame athlete? |
| 0:52.0 | What do you see differently than, you know, a normal person that you're |
| 0:56.1 | coaching or playing with? Well, speed, right? I mean, even, even though you're a senior, you, |
| 1:01.8 | you have a lot of speed. And I was really impressed with the technique and the technical prowess. |
| 1:07.4 | We talked about a little bit that he's had that he's had coaching, and he has really refined |
| 1:12.1 | it. And what does it show me as, as a professional, he knows how to work, which ways to work best for |
| 1:18.2 | him to refine the things that are essential, to be a great player at whatever he's doing. And I was |
| 1:24.2 | super impressed. We played in some miserable conditions yesterday. It was not like this. We're on the 18th fairway here at Devil Beach, by the way. And it was, he played, it was a great time. But I mean, at the end of the day, we had to fight through the elements.

| 2:02.4 | although you coach at Southern congratulations for that. What are some of the mindset is that |
| 2:07.9 | you carrying forward from your Hall of Fame career in football into being such a great golfer? |
| 2:13.6 | I think the number one thing is understanding that, you know, how you do one thing is how you do everything. |
| 2:20.9 | And in golf, if you want anything out of golf, you got to put so much into it. |
| 2:29.2 | For the amount of, for the amount of balls that you hit, the practice that you got to do, you might not see the |
| 2:35.1 | result immediately. The reality is you might not ever see the result. Like, I can go practice |
