But the hard lesson you eventually learn, and I feel like you generally like for me, I learned it in my mid to late 20s was like, oh, I just have to be me.
And I have to play my way.
You have to find people that communicate to you and manners.
Like everybody talks about, Oh, he's a great coach.
He's a great caddy.
The great coaches and the great caddies are the ones that communicate best with, with their, with their subject.
Um,
I'll just use, I know myself better than any golfer, but if I went to, Mark Blackburn's a genius, and he's the subject of one of my picks for this segment, but he gives people tons of information.
And like the way I like to think about my golf swing is like simple movements.
Like I, so I can remember how it feels to turn my shoulder a certain way.
But like, if you told me my ground force metrics are X, Y, Z, and you need to, you're only turning X degrees and you need to be at this, like I'm, I'm lost.
That's not going to work for me.
Like it, it's funny.
And you know, you think about like,
I had the most success playing golf when I had a caddy.
My favorite person to caddy for me is my cousin who played high-level baseball.
He was a pitcher and coaches baseball.
And to me, what worked was he played a sport at a high level where if you come and do a mound visit...
Somebody you're not going to go to the pitcher and say, hey, buddy, throw more strikes.
It's like no shit.
