Stop Golf Club. 12 00:00:38,740 --> 00:00:42,420 And we're here with Russ Diamond who is the... 13 00:00:42,420 --> 00:00:44,420 One of our partners in McHenry Metal Golf. 14 00:00:44,420 --> 00:00:45,420 Correct, correct. 15 00:00:45,420 --> 00:00:47,140 So welcome Russ. 16 00:00:47,140 --> 00:00:48,620 Thank you for being on the show. 17 00:00:48,620 --> 00:00:49,620 Really appreciate it. 18 00:00:49,620 --> 00:00:50,620 Good morning guys. 19 00:00:50,620 --> 00:00:53,680 Thanks for having me. 20 00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:59,620 So Russ, how long have you been with McHenry Metals and tell me a little bit about it. 21 00:00:59,620 --> 00:01:04,620 Well, it's been, what, about a year and a half, I think May of 22. 22 00:01:04,620 --> 00:01:11,140 I was in Sean's shop and asked him what was up with the McHenry Metals and he gave me 23 00:01:11,140 --> 00:01:15,220 a little bit of the history and I was very interested because I've been golfing for years 24 00:01:15,220 --> 00:01:19,660 and like the history of golf and everything, did a little research. 25 00:01:19,660 --> 00:01:25,860 And when you find out the history and where they were started from in McHenry, Illinois 26 00:01:25,860 --> 00:01:33,300 and with Gary Adams who was the founder of TaylorMade, the father of the metalwood, I 27 00:01:33,300 --> 00:01:34,980 got really excited about it. 28 00:01:34,980 --> 00:01:38,260 So that's what got me interested with Sean. 29 00:01:38,260 --> 00:01:45,420 Yeah, so basically Russ came on about a year ago, me and my partner in One Stop Golf shop 30 00:01:45,420 --> 00:01:50,700 down in Valrico, Jim Osbrooke, me and my partner and then a couple other investors. 31 00:01:50,700 --> 00:01:57,540 We purchased McHenry Metals Golf in June of, actually February of 2020. 32 00:01:57,540 --> 00:02:02,100 And McHenry Metals like Russ alluded to, I'm 52 years old. 33 00:02:02,100 --> 00:02:08,040 I always tell people if you're over 40, you've kind of heard of McHenry Metals because like 34 00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:13,340 Russ said, Gary Adams, not the founder of Adams Golf, that's a different Adams, that's 35 00:02:13,340 --> 00:02:14,340 Barney. 36 00:02:14,340 --> 00:02:20,060 Gary Adams was the man who basically started, he's called the father of the metalwood. 37 00:02:20,060 --> 00:02:25,260 So in 1984, 85, he started with TaylorMade. 38 00:02:25,260 --> 00:02:29,220 And I know you're younger, Tim, but Russ is a little older than us. 39 00:02:29,220 --> 00:02:31,060 That'll mean it would get on your us. 40 00:02:31,060 --> 00:02:38,420 But me and Russ, we grew up hitting persimmon and laminated woods back in the day, right 41 00:02:38,420 --> 00:02:39,420 Russ? 42 00:02:39,420 --> 00:02:40,420 Yeah. 43 00:02:40,420 --> 00:02:41,420 Oh yeah. 44 00:02:41,420 --> 00:02:45,500 And then the metalwoods coming on in those kind of mid 80s, they didn't even know what 45 00:02:45,500 --> 00:02:46,500 to call them, right? 46 00:02:46,500 --> 00:02:47,500 They just called them metals. 47 00:02:47,500 --> 00:02:49,100 Yeah, they still called them woods on a TV. 48 00:02:49,100 --> 00:02:50,100 Yeah. 49 00:02:50,100 --> 00:02:51,100 Correct. 50 00:02:51,100 --> 00:02:55,860 So Gary Adams, again, father of metal, of metalwood, TaylorMade, great rich history with 51 00:02:55,860 --> 00:02:58,780 his resume in the golf industry. 52 00:02:58,780 --> 00:03:04,300 He branched off from TaylorMade in the mid 90s to build a club called Founders Club. 53 00:03:04,300 --> 00:03:05,300 Oh, okay. 54 00:03:05,300 --> 00:03:06,300 I've heard of them. 55 00:03:06,300 --> 00:03:07,300 Yeah, absolutely. 56 00:03:07,300 --> 00:03:08,300 Yeah. 57 00:03:08,300 --> 00:03:10,740 And Russ, did you ever play any of the Founders Club stuff? 58 00:03:10,740 --> 00:03:14,660 Yeah, I used to have one called the driver called the judge. 59 00:03:14,660 --> 00:03:15,660 Yeah. 60 00:03:15,660 --> 00:03:16,660 Yeah. 61 00:03:16,660 --> 00:03:17,900 And that was, yeah. 62 00:03:17,900 --> 00:03:18,900 Yeah. 63 00:03:18,900 --> 00:03:22,020 And then, and then so from Founders Club, then he builds a, he kind of decides he's 64 00:03:22,020 --> 00:03:24,860 going to retire in McHenry, Illinois, which is where he's from. 65 00:03:24,860 --> 00:03:25,860 Okay. 66 00:03:25,860 --> 00:03:26,860 And he's the name. 67 00:03:26,860 --> 00:03:27,860 Yep. 68 00:03:27,860 --> 00:03:28,860 Yep. 69 00:03:28,860 --> 00:03:29,860 Exactly. 70 00:03:29,860 --> 00:03:32,340 And then he builds, starts building this company called McHenry Metals. 71 00:03:32,340 --> 00:03:38,100 And the unique thing about it to me from TaylorMade to Founders Club to McHenry Metals is the 72 00:03:38,100 --> 00:03:41,180 signature rail system that they have on the bottom of the clubs. 73 00:03:41,180 --> 00:03:42,180 Yeah, on the bottom. 74 00:03:42,180 --> 00:03:43,180 Yeah, very good. 75 00:03:43,180 --> 00:03:48,940 I think that really is, you know, he's one of the founders of kind of a titanium alloy 76 00:03:48,940 --> 00:03:53,540 or not alloy, titanium metal or driver head, I should say. 77 00:03:53,540 --> 00:03:54,540 Yeah. 78 00:03:54,540 --> 00:03:59,180 So kind of all that technology of, you know, metal woods were good, but they were heavy. 79 00:03:59,180 --> 00:04:00,180 Yeah. 80 00:04:00,180 --> 00:04:03,780 And the thing that titanium brought to the industry was they could lighten the club head 81 00:04:03,780 --> 00:04:04,780 up. 82 00:04:04,780 --> 00:04:06,260 Callaway ran with that completely, didn't they? 83 00:04:06,260 --> 00:04:07,260 Yeah. 84 00:04:07,260 --> 00:04:12,220 And I think about your metal wood companies, it was Titleist and, sorry, TaylorMade and 85 00:04:12,220 --> 00:04:13,220 Callaway. 86 00:04:13,220 --> 00:04:14,220 Yeah. 87 00:04:14,220 --> 00:04:15,780 They were the forerunners of all the metal product. 88 00:04:15,780 --> 00:04:16,780 Absolutely. 89 00:04:16,780 --> 00:04:18,340 And titanium product. 90 00:04:18,340 --> 00:04:22,900 So basically, like I said, I kind of knew about it. 91 00:04:22,900 --> 00:04:27,580 It was a really unique opportunity as far as like how I found out that McHenry Metals 92 00:04:27,580 --> 00:04:29,420 was kind of up for sale. 93 00:04:29,420 --> 00:04:30,420 Okay. 94 00:04:30,420 --> 00:04:33,260 And they were actually at that time in 2020, they were based in Jacksonville. 95 00:04:33,260 --> 00:04:34,260 Okay. 96 00:04:34,260 --> 00:04:39,380 So I know I'm a little bit all over the place with my dates here, but Gary Adams passes 97 00:04:39,380 --> 00:04:40,380 away in 2004. 98 00:04:40,380 --> 00:04:42,160 All right. 99 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:46,380 And nobody in the family wanted to kind of keep the company moving or going. 100 00:04:46,380 --> 00:04:48,440 So it just sat stagnant for a bit? 101 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:53,780 They actually sold it to the person, his name was Mel, what's his name, Russ? 102 00:04:53,780 --> 00:04:55,300 It was Mel Rodeli. 103 00:04:55,300 --> 00:04:56,300 Yep. 104 00:04:56,300 --> 00:04:57,300 So he actually purchased it. 105 00:04:57,300 --> 00:04:58,300 Yeah, Jacksonville, Florida. 106 00:04:58,300 --> 00:04:59,300 Yeah. 107 00:04:59,300 --> 00:05:00,300 Right. 108 00:05:00,300 --> 00:05:02,720 In 2004-ish. 109 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:06,260 And then he kind of kept it until about 2020. 110 00:05:06,260 --> 00:05:08,540 And that's kind of when we came upon it. 111 00:05:08,540 --> 00:05:12,740 He was actually, I think Russ, wasn't he like an air conditioning, like, you know, magnet 112 00:05:12,740 --> 00:05:13,740 or something like giant? 113 00:05:13,740 --> 00:05:17,020 Yeah, I think he owned a big air conditioning, commercial air conditioning company. 114 00:05:17,020 --> 00:05:19,540 So just a big golf enthusiast, I guess. 115 00:05:19,540 --> 00:05:20,540 That's great. 116 00:05:20,540 --> 00:05:21,540 Yeah. 117 00:05:21,540 --> 00:05:25,180 And they tried some online stuff for that kind of 15 year period. 118 00:05:25,180 --> 00:05:30,100 They were trying to do some, you know, sort of like, we'll call it marketing, you know, 119 00:05:30,100 --> 00:05:35,900 kind of a little bit like internet related and sort of an online presence. 120 00:05:35,900 --> 00:05:39,500 But they just had this massive amount of inventory. 121 00:05:39,500 --> 00:05:43,100 And when we went to the warehouse, which was really kind of a weird experience, again, 122 00:05:43,100 --> 00:05:46,540 you know, just a PGA guy who's been playing golf for a number. 123 00:05:46,540 --> 00:05:51,900 And again, knowing the story and kind of walking into this warehouse and you see 8,000 golf 124 00:05:51,900 --> 00:05:54,940 clubs still wrapped, still in the cellophane. 125 00:05:54,940 --> 00:05:55,940 Wow. 126 00:05:55,940 --> 00:05:58,660 The shafts are all made in the USA, which is a unique thing. 127 00:05:58,660 --> 00:05:59,660 That's nice. 128 00:05:59,660 --> 00:06:02,100 I don't know if it's made in China or Korea or something like that. 129 00:06:02,100 --> 00:06:03,100 Yep. 130 00:06:03,100 --> 00:06:04,100 And they're made by UST Graphite. 131 00:06:04,100 --> 00:06:06,100 Good company right there. 132 00:06:06,100 --> 00:06:07,140 Excellent company, right? 133 00:06:07,140 --> 00:06:09,420 That's what we played back in those 2000, 2010s. 134 00:06:09,420 --> 00:06:12,020 I think I still got a driver with that shaft in it. 135 00:06:12,020 --> 00:06:13,020 So, yeah. 136 00:06:13,020 --> 00:06:14,020 Yep. 137 00:06:14,020 --> 00:06:15,020 Remember that kind of gold and purple? 138 00:06:15,020 --> 00:06:16,020 Yeah. 139 00:06:16,020 --> 00:06:17,020 Purple and gold one. 140 00:06:17,020 --> 00:06:18,020 Yeah. 141 00:06:18,020 --> 00:06:19,620 I've still got it in my old Callaway titanium driver that we're talking about. 142 00:06:19,620 --> 00:06:20,620 So yeah. 143 00:06:20,620 --> 00:06:21,620 And they still make good stuff. 144 00:06:21,620 --> 00:06:26,460 So it just, everything kind of fit, you know, the price tag for the entire inventory was 145 00:06:26,460 --> 00:06:29,940 a good price tag for me and my partners at that time. 146 00:06:29,940 --> 00:06:35,220 We knew we could keep it at a low price for the consumer and be able to offer them really 147 00:06:35,220 --> 00:06:36,500 good quality product. 148 00:06:36,500 --> 00:06:37,500 That's good. 149 00:06:37,500 --> 00:06:42,900 And I think Russ, when you came into the store, even before you kind of get into the partnership, 150 00:06:42,900 --> 00:06:46,460 we talked about, you know, you asked me, well, hey, what's this McKenry Metals? 151 00:06:46,460 --> 00:06:51,700 And I would always tell the golfer coming to that shop that I didn't want to sell crappy 152 00:06:51,700 --> 00:06:52,700 product. 153 00:06:52,700 --> 00:06:58,500 And not to go on Walmart or Target, but there's an alloy component to some golf clubs that 154 00:06:58,500 --> 00:07:00,100 is just not good. 155 00:07:00,100 --> 00:07:01,100 Correct. 156 00:07:01,100 --> 00:07:05,020 They're going to rust, you know, they're going to break. 157 00:07:05,020 --> 00:07:12,820 And we knew that this was a quality product made at a time when golf clubs were made the 158 00:07:12,820 --> 00:07:15,500 correct way and not cheaply. 159 00:07:15,500 --> 00:07:16,500 Made in America too. 160 00:07:16,500 --> 00:07:17,500 Made in America. 161 00:07:17,500 --> 00:07:18,500 Which is nice. 162 00:07:18,500 --> 00:07:19,500 Yep. 163 00:07:19,500 --> 00:07:23,020 And they're going to sell it to the smaller driver. 164 00:07:23,020 --> 00:07:28,860 They've got, we've got basically like a 400 CC driver, you know, which is pretty good 165 00:07:28,860 --> 00:07:29,860 for today's standards, but. 166 00:07:29,860 --> 00:07:33,740 Well, they're kind of going back to the smaller drivers now with, you know, tailor-made, you 167 00:07:33,740 --> 00:07:36,580 know, as we've kind of talked about, they're going back to the smaller head driver. 168 00:07:36,580 --> 00:07:40,900 So I think that's, I think that's going to be kind of more in the mix as we move forward. 169 00:07:40,900 --> 00:07:43,980 That's why we started selling a mini driver now. 170 00:07:43,980 --> 00:07:46,500 So that same thing. 171 00:07:46,500 --> 00:07:47,500 Yep. 172 00:07:47,500 --> 00:07:50,180 So that's kind of where that brings it up to 2020. 173 00:07:50,180 --> 00:07:54,060 That's where we started selling it in locally in Valrico, Florida. 174 00:07:54,060 --> 00:08:03,340 We did some sales to some of the bigger companies, Rock Bottom Golf and also a company up in 175 00:08:03,340 --> 00:08:05,020 the villages called Golf Central. 176 00:08:05,020 --> 00:08:06,740 They took a pretty good amount too. 177 00:08:06,740 --> 00:08:11,140 So, but we still have plenty of inventory if people are interested. 178 00:08:11,140 --> 00:08:14,100 We'll say this a few times throughout the, throughout the podcast, but basically the 179 00:08:14,100 --> 00:08:20,140 best place to come and get it or get information is McHenryMetalsGolf.com still Russ, is that 180 00:08:20,140 --> 00:08:21,140 correct? 181 00:08:21,140 --> 00:08:22,460 Yes, yes, yes. 182 00:08:22,460 --> 00:08:23,460 Yeah. 183 00:08:23,460 --> 00:08:28,900 So we got our website or, you know, call me directly at the golf course currently, honestly. 184 00:08:28,900 --> 00:08:30,620 Or at One Stop Golf Shop as well. 185 00:08:30,620 --> 00:08:31,620 Yeah. 186 00:08:31,620 --> 00:08:34,820 My cell phone number or, you know, just get ahold of me at Lake Bernadette right now. 187 00:08:34,820 --> 00:08:38,060 I know it seems weird to, you know, for a golf company, but we want to kind of remain 188 00:08:38,060 --> 00:08:40,860 local until we do move all the products. 189 00:08:40,860 --> 00:08:44,540 So it is located currently at Lake Bernadette. 190 00:08:44,540 --> 00:08:46,740 That's where all of our product is. 191 00:08:46,740 --> 00:08:51,380 And we have over, literally over 3000 pieces still. 192 00:08:51,380 --> 00:08:55,300 So if there's a bigger liquidator out there that might want to, you know, get a good price 193 00:08:55,300 --> 00:09:01,660 on some, on a whole bunch of nice drivers, three woods and five woods, seven woods, we 194 00:09:01,660 --> 00:09:02,660 have that inventory available. 195 00:09:02,660 --> 00:09:03,660 Great. 196 00:09:03,660 --> 00:09:04,660 And all the shafts too. 197 00:09:04,660 --> 00:09:08,080 So Russ, why don't you, because since you came on, you've done a great job marketing 198 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:13,660 the company and kind of getting some more of the history and even setting up our McHenry 199 00:09:13,660 --> 00:09:15,460 Metals Golf brand ourselves. 200 00:09:15,460 --> 00:09:17,980 So why don't you go kind of talk to that? 201 00:09:17,980 --> 00:09:18,980 Yeah. 202 00:09:18,980 --> 00:09:19,980 Yeah. 203 00:09:19,980 --> 00:09:23,060 The, you know, we set it up as a separate, you know, got our business IDs and all that 204 00:09:23,060 --> 00:09:25,220 with the state of Florida. 205 00:09:25,220 --> 00:09:28,980 The one thing that was kind of unique going through, as Sean said, when they went, when 206 00:09:28,980 --> 00:09:34,180 picked up all the inventory, he got several bankers boxes full of paperwork. 207 00:09:34,180 --> 00:09:35,820 So I started sifting through all that. 208 00:09:35,820 --> 00:09:40,300 And one thing I found was, is they had, I want to say there were like eight different 209 00:09:40,300 --> 00:09:45,720 trademarks that were trademarked with the U S patent office, patent and trademark office. 210 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:49,780 So something you don't really think about, but it's like, oh wow, I got to check on that. 211 00:09:49,780 --> 00:09:54,800 A few of them were about to expire and I think one or two had expired. 212 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:59,340 So we got those all re-upped and paid our little dues and it wasn't very expensive, 213 00:09:59,340 --> 00:10:04,820 but we've got several of the trademarks like McHenry Metals is trademark and Tour Pure 214 00:10:04,820 --> 00:10:06,780 or the power rail system. 215 00:10:06,780 --> 00:10:13,020 And there were two, I keep the game pure, I think are different trademarks that we got. 216 00:10:13,020 --> 00:10:20,180 And we did, did establish the website is Sean mentioned mckenrymetalsgolf.com. 217 00:10:20,180 --> 00:10:26,220 And if anybody wants to go, go on mckenrymetalsgolf.com and at the top of there's a homepage and then 218 00:10:26,220 --> 00:10:34,560 about us on there, there's a video about the metalwood and the history of McHenry country 219 00:10:34,560 --> 00:10:40,260 club where Gary actually designed it and that as they stayed in the video, it's actually, 220 00:10:40,260 --> 00:10:43,340 it's like a four minute video, but it's very cool. 221 00:10:43,340 --> 00:10:47,700 And it says, that's the first place where you, where the sound of a metalwood hitting 222 00:10:47,700 --> 00:10:50,420 a golf ball was heard. 223 00:10:50,420 --> 00:10:51,780 And it's kind of, that is really cool. 224 00:10:51,780 --> 00:10:52,780 I thought that is cool. 225 00:10:52,780 --> 00:10:53,780 That's very cool. 226 00:10:53,780 --> 00:10:57,400 I think that's, it's a very, yeah, there's some old black and white pictures on there 227 00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:58,400 and everything. 228 00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:03,540 It's a, it was made by Taylor made because it really is a big transformable position 229 00:11:03,540 --> 00:11:04,860 in the game of golf. 230 00:11:04,860 --> 00:11:08,020 You know, I mean, it absolutely revolutionized the game of golf. 231 00:11:08,020 --> 00:11:11,420 And you know, a lot of people just don't know about McHenry metals. 232 00:11:11,420 --> 00:11:16,540 And this is, this is great that we're getting that, the exposure to, you know, what started, 233 00:11:16,540 --> 00:11:21,180 you know, the, the metal run for the woods, which is great revolutionized. 234 00:11:21,180 --> 00:11:22,180 It's a cool thing. 235 00:11:22,180 --> 00:11:25,620 I mean, like you, back in the day, they taught like gene saras and invented the sand wedge 236 00:11:25,620 --> 00:11:27,580 here in Newport, Richie. 237 00:11:27,580 --> 00:11:28,580 That's interesting. 238 00:11:28,580 --> 00:11:29,580 That's right. 239 00:11:29,580 --> 00:11:30,580 Yeah. 240 00:11:30,580 --> 00:11:34,220 And I think that's been, it's a great point, T Mac is that it's a kind of seminal moment 241 00:11:34,220 --> 00:11:40,260 in golf when it's switched from wooden woods to metal woods and to have, you know, such 242 00:11:40,260 --> 00:11:44,500 a good history and know that the club is made with intent. 243 00:11:44,500 --> 00:11:45,500 Yeah. 244 00:11:45,500 --> 00:11:51,260 It's not just a factory, you know, put in as many heads as you can type of thing. 245 00:11:51,260 --> 00:11:54,740 Like they, they put the time and effort into doing it correctly. 246 00:11:54,740 --> 00:11:56,740 And that's why they stand up over the test of time. 247 00:11:56,740 --> 00:11:57,740 Gotcha. 248 00:11:57,740 --> 00:12:01,660 And that's to me, the one of the best things I, you know, I had them at the store for the 249 00:12:01,660 --> 00:12:04,940 last three years and people would come in and say, how come you're only selling this 250 00:12:04,940 --> 00:12:05,940 club for $99? 251 00:12:05,940 --> 00:12:06,940 Yeah. 252 00:12:06,940 --> 00:12:09,340 My answer is cause I could. 253 00:12:09,340 --> 00:12:11,220 What gave him the idea to move to metal? 254 00:12:11,220 --> 00:12:17,060 I mean, did he just kind of have a, a Rika moment or, uh, did he just kind of, was he 255 00:12:17,060 --> 00:12:18,140 kind of an inventor? 256 00:12:18,140 --> 00:12:20,540 Did he just kind of sit around and think about these things? 257 00:12:20,540 --> 00:12:22,860 I mean, he grew up on a golf course. 258 00:12:22,860 --> 00:12:27,440 His dad was the head professional for years at McKenna country club, which is just outside 259 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:30,140 Chicago, this little Northwest of Chicago. 260 00:12:30,140 --> 00:12:33,300 Uh, but I, I, he was a salesman. 261 00:12:33,300 --> 00:12:38,460 I want to say he was going to driving ranges or something like that, selling products and 262 00:12:38,460 --> 00:12:44,140 maybe that's, you know, something heavy duty that would last is how we started something, 263 00:12:44,140 --> 00:12:45,140 something like that. 264 00:12:45,140 --> 00:12:47,660 I mean, they had to think he was crazy to begin with. 265 00:12:47,660 --> 00:12:52,100 I mean, here you are, you've got a metal club and everything from, you know, the time 266 00:12:52,100 --> 00:12:55,420 before Jesus had sandals, they had wooden wooden clubs. 267 00:12:55,420 --> 00:12:58,580 So I mean, it's just amazing that he came up with that idea. 268 00:12:58,580 --> 00:13:01,980 Change in technology and the titanium, the beta titanium. 269 00:13:01,980 --> 00:13:02,980 Yeah. 270 00:13:02,980 --> 00:13:07,340 Um, so my, my couple of stories there, and I've told Russ this before too, like first 271 00:13:07,340 --> 00:13:11,580 of all, beta titanium, it's usually, I don't know why I'm getting a little bit nerdy, but 272 00:13:11,580 --> 00:13:17,820 it's usually about 6% titanium, 4% vanadium is the name of, is the other term. 273 00:13:17,820 --> 00:13:19,140 And then there's another one in there too. 274 00:13:19,140 --> 00:13:23,200 And if you've ever seen some of the older metal woods, they would actually spark as 275 00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:24,200 you hit them. 276 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:25,200 Yeah. 277 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:26,200 And that's what it is. 278 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:31,820 It's that combination of that vanadium and titanium mixed together when it hits the sand 279 00:13:31,820 --> 00:13:34,100 coming through is what actually makes a spark. 280 00:13:34,100 --> 00:13:35,100 Oh, the interaction. 281 00:13:35,100 --> 00:13:36,100 Okay. 282 00:13:36,100 --> 00:13:37,100 Very cool. 283 00:13:37,100 --> 00:13:40,420 So, um, again, like you're saying, TMac, maybe some people on the testing sites thought 284 00:13:40,420 --> 00:13:41,420 that was pretty weird. 285 00:13:41,420 --> 00:13:42,420 I bet. 286 00:13:42,420 --> 00:13:43,420 Yeah. 287 00:13:43,420 --> 00:13:46,940 But, um, and the other part that I like to bring up a lot too is, um, on the, on the 288 00:13:46,940 --> 00:13:49,500 woods, on the fairy woods, the three wood, five wood and seven wood. 289 00:13:49,500 --> 00:13:53,380 So when we purchased the company, we got, um, and it's right handed only at this point, 290 00:13:53,380 --> 00:13:57,300 um, in the future, we'll talk about the future later, but basically what we purchased was 291 00:13:57,300 --> 00:14:03,740 right handed fairy woods and they had some, uh, a few hybrids, but on the stamping on 292 00:14:03,740 --> 00:14:07,740 the rail of the metal wood, it says forged steel. 293 00:14:07,740 --> 00:14:09,300 All right. 294 00:14:09,300 --> 00:14:15,220 Um, and the interesting thing to me, it's miraging, maraging steel is what it's called. 295 00:14:15,220 --> 00:14:16,220 Sorry. 296 00:14:16,220 --> 00:14:20,460 The interesting thing to me about that is that you look at my irons today, which are 297 00:14:20,460 --> 00:14:25,460 Ping I five 25, 2023 irons. 298 00:14:25,460 --> 00:14:30,080 If you look through the literature on how they sell the Ping I five 25 iron, they talk 299 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:36,740 about the new miraging steel repackaging. 300 00:14:36,740 --> 00:14:40,620 You know, I mean, and I brought that up to the, uh, ping rep when he was in my store, 301 00:14:40,620 --> 00:14:42,620 I said, you guys came up with this new material. 302 00:14:42,620 --> 00:14:43,820 He's like, yeah, it's amazing. 303 00:14:43,820 --> 00:14:47,660 Our R and D department came up with it and I'm like, well, let me show you this five 304 00:14:47,660 --> 00:14:50,580 wood from 20 years ago. 305 00:14:50,580 --> 00:14:51,940 Oh no, no, it's a different process. 306 00:14:51,940 --> 00:14:54,500 I said, sure. 307 00:14:54,500 --> 00:14:55,500 Just repackage. 308 00:14:55,500 --> 00:14:56,500 That's all. 309 00:14:56,500 --> 00:14:57,500 That's all. 310 00:14:57,500 --> 00:15:01,180 You have to talk to a metallurgical engineer and see if it's really. 311 00:15:01,180 --> 00:15:06,260 So Russ, I was reading that, uh, McHenry metals in the beginning played a significant role 312 00:15:06,260 --> 00:15:07,260 in the senior tour. 313 00:15:07,260 --> 00:15:08,260 Is that correct? 314 00:15:08,260 --> 00:15:15,460 Yeah, I believe 2000, 2001, uh, it was the leading driver on the senior tour. 315 00:15:15,460 --> 00:15:16,460 Wow. 316 00:15:16,460 --> 00:15:18,780 I think it was hard part. 317 00:15:18,780 --> 00:15:24,300 There were like 16 championships that, uh, we're using, uh, McHenry metals, either the, 318 00:15:24,300 --> 00:15:28,060 the three woods or, you know, the woods, the drivers. 319 00:15:28,060 --> 00:15:29,060 Yeah. 320 00:15:29,060 --> 00:15:31,740 So yeah, it's got a very good pass. 321 00:15:31,740 --> 00:15:33,420 It kind of rest what you're saying too. 322 00:15:33,420 --> 00:15:36,900 If you look through some of those old folders that we have, you know, when we, when we purchased 323 00:15:36,900 --> 00:15:38,380 the company too, it was kind of weird. 324 00:15:38,380 --> 00:15:41,940 Like we walk in again, the guy's like, okay, this is all yours. 325 00:15:41,940 --> 00:15:43,580 And I'm like, okay, well, we'll just take the clubs. 326 00:15:43,580 --> 00:15:48,140 He goes, no, no, the desk, the stapler, the computer, you got it all. 327 00:15:48,140 --> 00:15:49,620 You purchased the entire thing. 328 00:15:49,620 --> 00:15:50,620 So yeah. 329 00:15:50,620 --> 00:15:54,760 So, so the, uh, tollings, which is what Russ was referring to earlier. 330 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:59,880 So kind of the patent tolling is the actual, like the actual head that you would send to 331 00:15:59,880 --> 00:16:03,460 China or, or Britain or whatever to actually get more. 332 00:16:03,460 --> 00:16:04,460 It's a mold. 333 00:16:04,460 --> 00:16:05,460 Okay. 334 00:16:05,460 --> 00:16:06,460 Yep. 335 00:16:06,460 --> 00:16:07,660 So we own those and we actually have the physical tollings. 336 00:16:07,660 --> 00:16:10,260 So whenever you want to manufacture, you can go back and do that. 337 00:16:10,260 --> 00:16:11,260 That's great. 338 00:16:11,260 --> 00:16:14,300 So you can send that information to the manufacturer and get more made. 339 00:16:14,300 --> 00:16:20,260 But basically the, uh, the, those folders of kind of like you were saying with the black 340 00:16:20,260 --> 00:16:26,660 white pictures, you see some, you know, old senior players, which would probably be almost, 341 00:16:26,660 --> 00:16:32,940 um, I don't have the names in front of me, but, but kind of like the Larry Mize sort 342 00:16:32,940 --> 00:16:38,580 of, uh, you know, John cook that kind of era, which is not that old, but again, 2000, it's 343 00:16:38,580 --> 00:16:41,620 when those guys were starting to move to that tour. 344 00:16:41,620 --> 00:16:46,620 Um, but those guys were at least either testing it and there's some data there too, like, 345 00:16:46,620 --> 00:16:51,460 Hey, they went to demo days and they had these 15 different tour players test them. 346 00:16:51,460 --> 00:16:55,780 And then you'll see like the results or the, the, you know, Hey, their comments and they're 347 00:16:55,780 --> 00:16:58,660 like, Oh, this is one of the best feeling golf clubs I've ever hit. 348 00:16:58,660 --> 00:16:59,660 Oh wow. 349 00:16:59,660 --> 00:17:03,260 Um, you know, matches up just with the Taylor made in Callaway of the day. 350 00:17:03,260 --> 00:17:04,260 Gotta love that. 351 00:17:04,260 --> 00:17:05,260 Yeah. 352 00:17:05,260 --> 00:17:09,780 And, and, and Russ, I think they'd always pretty much done almost like a ground swell, 353 00:17:09,780 --> 00:17:10,780 like ground movement. 354 00:17:10,780 --> 00:17:12,820 They didn't have a lot of advertising dollars. 355 00:17:12,820 --> 00:17:17,220 They really just sold their product on the demo teas and kind of from word of mouth from 356 00:17:17,220 --> 00:17:19,340 the different pros, right? 357 00:17:19,340 --> 00:17:20,340 Correct. 358 00:17:20,340 --> 00:17:21,340 Yeah. 359 00:17:21,340 --> 00:17:24,660 That ended in different, obviously country clubs and things were buying them. 360 00:17:24,660 --> 00:17:25,660 Yep. 361 00:17:25,660 --> 00:17:26,660 In the day. 362 00:17:26,660 --> 00:17:27,660 Yeah. 363 00:17:27,660 --> 00:17:30,820 Um, so, uh, I play the three wood, five wood, seven wood. 364 00:17:30,820 --> 00:17:31,820 Um, I do. 365 00:17:31,820 --> 00:17:35,860 I, I will put it up against anybody else's club out there. 366 00:17:35,860 --> 00:17:36,860 Currently. 367 00:17:36,860 --> 00:17:39,020 Um, I hit it just as far. 368 00:17:39,020 --> 00:17:40,660 The seven wood is amazing. 369 00:17:40,660 --> 00:17:42,060 Really has replaced my four iron. 370 00:17:42,060 --> 00:17:43,060 Okay. 371 00:17:43,060 --> 00:17:44,820 You know, um, it's got those rails in the bottom. 372 00:17:44,820 --> 00:17:46,820 That's very convenient, very easy to hit. 373 00:17:46,820 --> 00:17:49,460 Gets it gets the ball up and out very easily. 374 00:17:49,460 --> 00:17:55,060 Um, you know, maybe to today's standard, a little smaller profile for the fair woods 375 00:17:55,060 --> 00:18:00,540 than today's standard, which have kind of gone to that wider, uh, almost deeper, you 376 00:18:00,540 --> 00:18:01,540 know, look. 377 00:18:01,540 --> 00:18:05,860 I mean, the three wood nowadays looks kind of like the old drivers that we used to have 378 00:18:05,860 --> 00:18:08,700 as kids, you know, so they've gotten very big. 379 00:18:08,700 --> 00:18:13,340 Um, but you know, I'm, I'm sure with the McHenry metals, it's a lot more workable, which I'm 380 00:18:13,340 --> 00:18:18,180 finding as I get older, I want more of, um, I want to be able to work that ball a little 381 00:18:18,180 --> 00:18:19,180 bit more left to right. 382 00:18:19,180 --> 00:18:22,020 And probably having that smaller face allows me to do that as well. 383 00:18:22,020 --> 00:18:23,020 Yeah. 384 00:18:23,020 --> 00:18:24,020 And it's not in the fair. 385 00:18:24,020 --> 00:18:27,900 I think Russ, would you probably agree like the, the, the comparison of the fair wood 386 00:18:27,900 --> 00:18:33,240 of today versus McHenry and the driver of today, you know, versus McHenry, the difference 387 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:37,940 is the driver that that's the one that really kind of shows up as a little smaller profile. 388 00:18:37,940 --> 00:18:42,460 Um, but the fair woods are really classic looking. 389 00:18:42,460 --> 00:18:45,700 They kind of have that pair, that pear shape, you know? 390 00:18:45,700 --> 00:18:50,740 Um, and I think that, uh, and they jump off the ball that that's the, they just jump off 391 00:18:50,740 --> 00:18:51,740 the ball. 392 00:18:51,740 --> 00:18:54,820 That's the big thing I hear from the people that currently play them that we've sold them 393 00:18:54,820 --> 00:19:01,140 to again, kind of like, you know, I'd sell the guy a three wood and then he'd be back 394 00:19:01,140 --> 00:19:02,140 in the next day. 395 00:19:02,140 --> 00:19:03,620 I need the five and seven. 396 00:19:03,620 --> 00:19:05,380 You got to get it all, get the whole package. 397 00:19:05,380 --> 00:19:06,380 Yeah. 398 00:19:06,380 --> 00:19:09,420 They almost don't believe like, how can this be so good for a hundred dollars? 399 00:19:09,420 --> 00:19:10,420 Yeah. 400 00:19:10,420 --> 00:19:14,020 And, um, so, and that's a very reasonable price for a hundred bucks to get a driver 401 00:19:14,020 --> 00:19:17,620 that's, you know, just comparable to all the other ones is amazing. 402 00:19:17,620 --> 00:19:18,620 Yep. 403 00:19:18,620 --> 00:19:19,620 Yep. 404 00:19:19,620 --> 00:19:24,540 Um, we've done some testing inside and track man at my store and, uh, I've got a couple 405 00:19:24,540 --> 00:19:29,260 of players who get it up around 115 miles per hour swing speed, you know, and they will 406 00:19:29,260 --> 00:19:32,740 carry the ball three, three Oh five type of thing. 407 00:19:32,740 --> 00:19:35,820 And they will take a McKendree metal driver and they will carry the ball three, three 408 00:19:35,820 --> 00:19:36,820 Oh five. 409 00:19:36,820 --> 00:19:37,820 Okay. 410 00:19:37,820 --> 00:19:38,820 Yep. 411 00:19:38,820 --> 00:19:39,820 Yep. 412 00:19:39,820 --> 00:19:40,820 Yeah. 413 00:19:40,820 --> 00:19:41,820 Yeah. 414 00:19:41,820 --> 00:19:42,820 It's just a couple of the players there. 415 00:19:42,820 --> 00:19:46,000 And then the only reason if they don't purchase it is because it's the size and it's just 416 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:51,540 depends on, but as we've talked about it, Russ, there's so many more uses for this club, 417 00:19:51,540 --> 00:19:53,620 meaning driving ranges. 418 00:19:53,620 --> 00:19:55,900 This would be a perfect golf club for a drive range. 419 00:19:55,900 --> 00:19:56,900 Yeah. 420 00:19:56,900 --> 00:19:57,900 Right. 421 00:19:57,900 --> 00:19:58,900 Yeah. 422 00:19:58,900 --> 00:19:59,900 Almost go back range rentals. 423 00:19:59,900 --> 00:20:00,900 Yep. 424 00:20:00,900 --> 00:20:01,900 Yeah. 425 00:20:01,900 --> 00:20:04,340 Rental sets, uh, juniors, juniors would be great. 426 00:20:04,340 --> 00:20:05,340 Yeah. 427 00:20:05,340 --> 00:20:10,180 And just people that like playing golf want a brand new club that, you know, you don't 428 00:20:10,180 --> 00:20:14,700 have to spend 450 bucks for a new driver on the low side right now. 429 00:20:14,700 --> 00:20:16,580 Because golf is a very expensive sport. 430 00:20:16,580 --> 00:20:20,820 And if you can, if you can get in and get good quality stuff at a good quality prices, 431 00:20:20,820 --> 00:20:23,180 that's that's pretty unique these days. 432 00:20:23,180 --> 00:20:24,180 Yep. 433 00:20:24,180 --> 00:20:28,380 So typically what we do is basically the clubs are a hundred dollars between 90 and a hundred, 434 00:20:28,380 --> 00:20:29,580 depending on where we're selling them. 435 00:20:29,580 --> 00:20:30,580 Okay. 436 00:20:30,580 --> 00:20:33,820 And then we'll do usually a series of three, a package of three for two 25. 437 00:20:33,820 --> 00:20:34,820 Okay. 438 00:20:34,820 --> 00:20:37,380 And that's like Russ just said for $225. 439 00:20:37,380 --> 00:20:39,500 Now you got three golf clubs. 440 00:20:39,500 --> 00:20:42,980 That's less than the price of half of a full driver right now. 441 00:20:42,980 --> 00:20:43,980 Absolutely. 442 00:20:43,980 --> 00:20:44,980 Yeah. 443 00:20:44,980 --> 00:20:45,980 You know, and it's not that alloy. 444 00:20:45,980 --> 00:20:51,540 It's not that material that's, uh, that you'll see at the, the commercial stores or whatever, 445 00:20:51,540 --> 00:20:55,580 or an Amazon, I would say, I'm, I don't mind badmouthing them for a second. 446 00:20:55,580 --> 00:21:00,700 Um, there's, there's so many golfers that purchase product on Amazon just because they 447 00:21:00,700 --> 00:21:02,900 see it as a good value. 448 00:21:02,900 --> 00:21:07,500 And then they'll come in three months later and they're, it's either rusting or the shafts 449 00:21:07,500 --> 00:21:09,100 broken or something. 450 00:21:09,100 --> 00:21:12,100 Name recognition is what they're purchasing on Amazon. 451 00:21:12,100 --> 00:21:13,100 Yeah. 452 00:21:13,100 --> 00:21:16,260 Well, yeah, it just, uh, it doesn't, it doesn't stand up. 453 00:21:16,260 --> 00:21:19,700 So, um, yeah, it's a, it's a great option. 454 00:21:19,700 --> 00:21:20,980 Russ mentioned the mini driver. 455 00:21:20,980 --> 00:21:23,580 Talk about that a little more, Russ, cause I, I'm going to give you the credit. 456 00:21:23,580 --> 00:21:26,940 I thought that was a great inventive way to try to move some product. 457 00:21:26,940 --> 00:21:27,940 Yeah. 458 00:21:27,940 --> 00:21:33,140 Well, as, as Tim was saying, I mean, just recently, um, we're watching the golf, what 459 00:21:33,140 --> 00:21:38,700 during the seer, I don't know if it was the FedEx or is it the end of the year, two or 460 00:21:38,700 --> 00:21:43,580 three of the players, and I can't recall which ones were using a mini driver and, uh, Taylor 461 00:21:43,580 --> 00:21:47,660 maids come out with a new one, which is a number one, not the four 60 head. 462 00:21:47,660 --> 00:21:49,260 It's a little smaller head. 463 00:21:49,260 --> 00:21:50,260 Yep. 464 00:21:50,260 --> 00:21:52,740 And they cut two inches off the length of the driver. 465 00:21:52,740 --> 00:21:57,820 So it gives you more control when you're saying, Hey, I can give up 10, 15 yards, maybe 20 466 00:21:57,820 --> 00:21:59,580 yards, but I'm in the middle of the fairway. 467 00:21:59,580 --> 00:22:01,780 I'll take that any day on a tight course. 468 00:22:01,780 --> 00:22:03,420 Uh, and it's good. 469 00:22:03,420 --> 00:22:04,420 You'll have more control. 470 00:22:04,420 --> 00:22:05,660 It was a little bit shorter club. 471 00:22:05,660 --> 00:22:09,340 So we've modified ours to, uh, to fit that bill. 472 00:22:09,340 --> 00:22:11,740 I mean, it's, it's like, why not same price? 473 00:22:11,740 --> 00:22:16,340 Uh, you know, the Taylor maids still selling them for probably 400 bucks or more. 474 00:22:16,340 --> 00:22:18,060 And it's the same club. 475 00:22:18,060 --> 00:22:19,060 Yep. 476 00:22:19,060 --> 00:22:20,740 And, uh, the lofts for the drivers. 477 00:22:20,740 --> 00:22:24,820 And again, that's kind of a unique thing because now they're typically adjustable, but that's 478 00:22:24,820 --> 00:22:26,860 the $560 driver. 479 00:22:26,860 --> 00:22:31,740 Um, the, the lofts are eight degrees, nine and a half degrees, 10 and a half degrees 480 00:22:31,740 --> 00:22:33,060 and 11 and a half degrees. 481 00:22:33,060 --> 00:22:34,060 Okay. 482 00:22:34,060 --> 00:22:37,900 So really good range for the player who maybe the senior player who might want the 11 and 483 00:22:37,900 --> 00:22:43,340 a half or the lady, or as I mentioned, the junior, I think those are all perfectly fit 484 00:22:43,340 --> 00:22:44,980 lofts for that person. 485 00:22:44,980 --> 00:22:45,980 Yeah. 486 00:22:45,980 --> 00:22:49,740 Um, and then, uh, basically, you know, we can customize the shaft length. 487 00:22:49,740 --> 00:22:58,020 Um, so you gotta think of try, try to go get a custom car or a custom, you know, cabinet 488 00:22:58,020 --> 00:23:02,260 set or anything for, for less money than the standard one that's on the market. 489 00:23:02,260 --> 00:23:03,260 That this is what we're doing. 490 00:23:03,260 --> 00:23:06,260 We're doing custom golf clubs, your length. 491 00:23:06,260 --> 00:23:10,860 Um, you know, whatever length sets up best to you, we have shafts that are either stiff, 492 00:23:10,860 --> 00:23:13,660 regular truck, regular flex or light flex. 493 00:23:13,660 --> 00:23:19,300 And that light can be cut to either, uh, basically go to a ladies flex or a senior flex or a 494 00:23:19,300 --> 00:23:23,820 junior senior in that lights, basically a senior flex, right? 495 00:23:23,820 --> 00:23:24,820 Yeah. 496 00:23:24,820 --> 00:23:28,580 It's, it's, it's in that, uh, lighter gram weight and also the flex points lower, but 497 00:23:28,580 --> 00:23:33,500 we can cut the, uh, from the butt end to make it a little different, um, flex point is kind 498 00:23:33,500 --> 00:23:34,500 of the idea. 499 00:23:34,500 --> 00:23:37,180 And, uh, so yeah, so just a lot of good options. 500 00:23:37,180 --> 00:23:42,700 And again, uh, you know, it's sometimes I get frustrated as I'm trying to talk to a 501 00:23:42,700 --> 00:23:45,700 customer cause they give me, they give me more questions about this than they do the 502 00:23:45,700 --> 00:23:46,700 $600 driver. 503 00:23:46,700 --> 00:23:52,460 And I'm like, sir, ma'am for a hundred dollars, it's you spent, you spent a lot of stupid. 504 00:23:52,460 --> 00:23:53,900 I think it's just one of those things. 505 00:23:53,900 --> 00:23:55,220 It's too good to be true. 506 00:23:55,220 --> 00:23:56,700 You know, everybody's too worried about it. 507 00:23:56,700 --> 00:23:58,140 It's too good of a good deal. 508 00:23:58,140 --> 00:24:03,780 So you know, and we have the drive, the drivers, you've got lefties too, correct? 509 00:24:03,780 --> 00:24:05,980 We do have some left handed 10 and a half and 11 and a half. 510 00:24:05,980 --> 00:24:07,700 So the heads that we've still got available. 511 00:24:07,700 --> 00:24:08,700 Yeah. 512 00:24:08,700 --> 00:24:09,700 Gotcha. 513 00:24:09,700 --> 00:24:10,700 Okay. 514 00:24:10,700 --> 00:24:14,300 And I think we should, and to your point you were making, you know, with Christmas 515 00:24:14,300 --> 00:24:17,980 coming up and somebody, you know, a birthday or something, who wants to buy somebody a 516 00:24:17,980 --> 00:24:22,380 used club for birthday, you know, or Christmas and I just brand new, still got the wrapper 517 00:24:22,380 --> 00:24:23,380 on the head. 518 00:24:23,380 --> 00:24:24,380 Yep. 519 00:24:24,380 --> 00:24:25,380 I mean, it's a brand new club. 520 00:24:25,380 --> 00:24:26,780 So that's a good point. 521 00:24:26,780 --> 00:24:27,780 That's a good point. 522 00:24:27,780 --> 00:24:33,900 Um, and then they do make, we, or they have wedges, which we have 52 degree wedges and 523 00:24:33,900 --> 00:24:35,660 60 degree wedges in stock. 524 00:24:35,660 --> 00:24:40,740 And those two, to the point again, TMAC is that they're made with dynamic old shafts. 525 00:24:40,740 --> 00:24:43,780 The same thing you're going to get from the tailor made Callaway and all the other big 526 00:24:43,780 --> 00:24:44,780 boys, right? 527 00:24:44,780 --> 00:24:45,780 Right. 528 00:24:45,780 --> 00:24:47,820 Um, his system on the wedges was called tri bounce. 529 00:24:47,820 --> 00:24:52,220 So essentially you'll purchase wedges now currently that have specific bounce to them, 530 00:24:52,220 --> 00:24:55,120 you know, like a 56 degree with 10 degree bounce. 531 00:24:55,120 --> 00:25:00,100 So this is a system that's designed basically how you lay the club on the ground. 532 00:25:00,100 --> 00:25:02,480 So if you open it up more, it's got more bounce. 533 00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:06,460 If you square it up, you know, or close it, it's got less bounce. 534 00:25:06,460 --> 00:25:10,460 So the bounce kind of adjusts to, to what your lyre or your loft is going to be. 535 00:25:10,460 --> 00:25:11,460 That's, that's pretty unique. 536 00:25:11,460 --> 00:25:12,460 Yeah. 537 00:25:12,460 --> 00:25:15,900 And we had 56 when Russ came on board, but he did such a good job selling. 538 00:25:15,900 --> 00:25:18,380 Uh, we ended up, those are all gone. 539 00:25:18,380 --> 00:25:26,860 We sold 1200 wedges to, uh, to, to that, um, uh, rock bottom golf 1200 wedges at one time. 540 00:25:26,860 --> 00:25:27,860 Wow. 541 00:25:27,860 --> 00:25:28,860 Yeah. 542 00:25:28,860 --> 00:25:31,180 And we still have more 56 or 52s and sixties. 543 00:25:31,180 --> 00:25:36,980 So, um, it's a very, it's a little heavier wedge than today's standard, but I think in 544 00:25:36,980 --> 00:25:39,500 the bunker, the 60 is perfect. 545 00:25:39,500 --> 00:25:40,500 That's what I'm saying. 546 00:25:40,500 --> 00:25:42,180 You know, that's what people need. 547 00:25:42,180 --> 00:25:46,620 They need to be able to drive through the sand and some of the heavier rough to get 548 00:25:46,620 --> 00:25:47,620 through. 549 00:25:47,620 --> 00:25:53,420 So I really liked the 60 and I think the 52 is just again, kind of a nice, heavy, smooth, 550 00:25:53,420 --> 00:25:55,580 uh, feeling through impact. 551 00:25:55,580 --> 00:25:59,660 Um, distances again, very comparable to the current wedges of today. 552 00:25:59,660 --> 00:26:00,660 Gotcha. 553 00:26:00,660 --> 00:26:04,940 You can't 52 of 24 years ago versus 52 of 2023. 554 00:26:04,940 --> 00:26:06,860 It's the same 52 didn't change. 555 00:26:06,860 --> 00:26:07,860 Gotcha. 556 00:26:07,860 --> 00:26:08,860 Gotcha. 557 00:26:08,860 --> 00:26:09,860 Yep. 558 00:26:09,860 --> 00:26:10,860 And a good feel off of them too. 559 00:26:10,860 --> 00:26:11,860 A very nice feel. 560 00:26:11,860 --> 00:26:15,980 So, um, I've got a few customers who good amount of spin off the face. 561 00:26:15,980 --> 00:26:16,980 Yeah. 562 00:26:16,980 --> 00:26:17,980 Yeah. 563 00:26:17,980 --> 00:26:18,980 Well, think about that team. 564 00:26:18,980 --> 00:26:23,860 Not great question, but the difference on the face is it's not, um, they weren't governed 565 00:26:23,860 --> 00:26:26,500 by the, the USDA standards. 566 00:26:26,500 --> 00:26:27,500 So they have the U-shaper. 567 00:26:27,500 --> 00:26:29,860 Well, the grooves are a little bit bigger. 568 00:26:29,860 --> 00:26:30,860 Okay. 569 00:26:30,860 --> 00:26:33,300 In between, you know, the space in between the grooves, a little bit bigger. 570 00:26:33,300 --> 00:26:34,300 Perfect. 571 00:26:34,300 --> 00:26:35,300 I'm picking me up one. 572 00:26:35,300 --> 00:26:36,300 Yeah. 573 00:26:36,300 --> 00:26:41,500 So, uh, so yeah, so that's 60s, uh, excellent, excellent tool there. 574 00:26:41,500 --> 00:26:46,100 Um, but Russ, if you want, or, you know, maybe I can go into it too, but, but let's go with, 575 00:26:46,100 --> 00:26:50,140 let's go with maybe two years down the road, like our ideal situation, what happens with 576 00:26:50,140 --> 00:26:53,980 McHenry metals and what we do, we've kind of discussed this as some internal business 577 00:26:53,980 --> 00:26:57,980 meetings, but like, what's our ideal thing that we do two years from now, if everything 578 00:26:57,980 --> 00:26:59,700 works out well with McHenry. 579 00:26:59,700 --> 00:27:05,660 Well, we'd like to, uh, if we can gather enough funds after, uh, selling this inventory, we'd 580 00:27:05,660 --> 00:27:11,300 like to, you know, upsize it to the, to the current standard of 460 CCs. 581 00:27:11,300 --> 00:27:12,300 Right. 582 00:27:12,300 --> 00:27:15,020 Uh, and, uh, go from there. 583 00:27:15,020 --> 00:27:19,460 Basically like reintroduce it into the market at a, again, kind of a lower cost alternative, 584 00:27:19,460 --> 00:27:22,700 maybe a 249 or one 99 type of golf. 585 00:27:22,700 --> 00:27:23,700 Yeah. 586 00:27:23,700 --> 00:27:28,180 So there's still be, yeah, a lot cheaper than a new, uh, tailor made Callaway. 587 00:27:28,180 --> 00:27:29,180 Yeah. 588 00:27:29,180 --> 00:27:30,340 And we're going to go with those types of clubs. 589 00:27:30,340 --> 00:27:35,020 And that's, that's the cool kind of thing about having the, the tollings, like I mentioned 590 00:27:35,020 --> 00:27:36,700 and having the trademarks. 591 00:27:36,700 --> 00:27:38,220 Yeah, that's amazing. 592 00:27:38,220 --> 00:27:39,220 Yeah. 593 00:27:39,220 --> 00:27:43,140 That we can, you know, once the funds are there, we could literally call up again. 594 00:27:43,140 --> 00:27:44,780 I hate to do it China or whatever. 595 00:27:44,780 --> 00:27:45,780 Yeah. 596 00:27:45,780 --> 00:27:48,740 At this point, that's kind of where 97% of the stuff is made. 597 00:27:48,740 --> 00:27:49,740 Correct. 598 00:27:49,740 --> 00:27:56,020 Um, but in order 5,000 and start coming out to, you know, your Dicks and your golf galaxies 599 00:27:56,020 --> 00:28:01,620 and basically having, Hey, here's this option for, like I said, one 99, whatever that number 600 00:28:01,620 --> 00:28:02,620 is. 601 00:28:02,620 --> 00:28:06,260 Um, but we're still going to put a good shaft into it and it's got that heritage. 602 00:28:06,260 --> 00:28:07,260 It's got that name. 603 00:28:07,260 --> 00:28:08,260 Yeah. 604 00:28:08,260 --> 00:28:09,260 It's got a rich history, doesn't it? 605 00:28:09,260 --> 00:28:10,260 I mean, it really does. 606 00:28:10,260 --> 00:28:11,260 Yeah. 607 00:28:11,260 --> 00:28:12,260 Yep. 608 00:28:12,260 --> 00:28:13,260 Yeah. 609 00:28:13,260 -->
