00:00Like to me, and this is this is such a bad comp,
00:03but you know how much I love
00:06Tobacco Road.
00:07And it's like if if Tobacco Road was built like hundreds and hundreds of years ago
00:11with all the quirks and the fun, it would be press week.
00:14And that's not a slight to press week in any way, shape or form.
00:18Yeah, I'm trying to get a feel for it.
00:19This is like unusual compared to the ones you've just like.
00:22There was a clear identity in the other ones that you've said.
00:27This is first tier.
00:28You're literally it's so flat.
00:30A railway is like, yeah, I'm looking at it right here.
00:34And it's it's a super flat fairway.
00:37Just looks like.
00:40SK would be hitting three on his second shot on the tee box.
00:44It is tight. It's very tight.
00:46You're hitting a lot of irons.
00:48You're hitting a lot like there was a par five.
00:50The first par five cardinal, the third hole.
00:53It is the most bizarre stretch of shots where you're just like,
00:56just trust your caddy because he's like, just hit it there.
00:59And you're like, really?
00:59He's like, yeah, this is about how far you want to hit it.
01:01And then the next shot, shot, same thing.
01:03And then all of a sudden you're up next to the green and you're
01:05you got a little pitch in for, you know, or you're close to the green up
01:08for a par five. And it's it's it's just a
01:12the whole thing was so much fun that I had a caddy chick
01:16who was hilarious, who actually recently carried for some of the foreplay guys.
01:20I think Frankie and Riggs were over there.
01:22Maybe it was Frankie and Trent
01:24that he was he was on there and just was hilarious jokes all day long.
01:29Great. Yeah.
01:30That place was special.
01:32The 17th hole Alps is like 394 yard par four
01:36where you hit this first shot kind of down this valley
01:38and then you have a completely blind.
01:41Like, yeah, you have to head over a big hill and down.
01:44This one seems of the ones you've shown me
01:48like the quirkiest.
01:51Without without a doubt, the quirkiest.
01:53And to me, you come to Scotland for some of that quirk.
01:56And I this is right.
01:59It's a quirk turning on a little bit, Charlie.
02:02Gets me going a little bit.
02:03It's a lot of bother.
02:04I mean, I think, you know, we can recap at the end.
02:06Like, I mean, I think Presswick, North Berwick, like I loved Western Gales
02:11a lot, but I'd say like Presswick, North Berwick.
02:14And we'll get to Creole Balcombe.
02:15We're like my three just like,
02:18I don't know any other golf courses in the world that are like this.
