Welcome in. This is 300 yards to unknown as you might know next week, the world championships for the professional long drive association going on in Mesquite, Nevada.

I will be there and I wanted to get a perspective that few can offer.

So with that, this is 2017 World Long Drive Champion, a staple in the industry and community.

It's Justin James. Justin, thank you so much for joining.

You're very welcome. Looking forward to chatting about long drive. Yeah, before we do that,

I love this. So your bio on pro long drive.com, this is how it starts, Justin. Let me read

this, dude. It says, beneath the boyish appearance and the soft spoken and gentle demeanor

there is a raging fire burning inside the 2017 world long drive champion just and james first

all great bio and do you agree do you agree with that assessment of you? I don't know, I guess.

I just show up and hit golf balls, so I'm not really sure.

That's pretty intense.

Yeah, whoever's writing this needs a raise.

I was like all in and fired up when I was reading through, reading through the bios.

Yeah, I need to hire them.

That's impressive.

Okay.

So, yeah, we were kind of just talking, uh, off Mike there a little bit about, um,

the industry.

And I think for a lot of people, the long drive industry can be a little bit confusing, right?

And what is now there's, you know, the pro long drive?

What is the state of the industry and is it multiple tours that are going on?
