00:00But I also say this when it comes to working for Colin Morikawa.
00:03I think that's probably one of the most challenging bags to work for because of the way he plays the game.
00:09I think it's very difficult to club him because he hits he hits shots that nobody else hits.
00:17When I when I can describe to you that he can be 180 yards and you just say, you know what?
00:23I think I'm just going to hit like I'm just going to take a lot off this five iron.
00:27I'm just going to kind of chip fade one.
00:30And shoot, he could have been working for Max and that could have been, you know, let's let's hit seven iron here.
00:35You know, I think it's it's very tough.
00:38I think he's probably the most difficult player to caddy for.
00:41And he's and I say that because he's really, really, really good.
00:46And he's really, really accurate.
00:48He's very, very good at hitting his numbers.
00:50But I think it's challenging to caddy for somebody that that sees spin so much differently than most other tour players.
00:58And, you know, I think that's so interesting because who he has on this bag this week and I'm going to completely butcher this guy's last name.
01:06But it's a former Cal teammate, KK Limba said I you can go look it up.
01:11It's in that same story that Adam Shupak wrote, L-I-M-B-H-A-S-U-T.
01:15But a guy that if he's played some level of golf with Colin for an extended period of time, maybe has more familiarity with all the shots that Colin has in his bag and can play.
01:25Now, I'm not suggesting that that's going to be the long term solution on Colin's bag.
01:28But let's delve into that a little bit further.
01:31So I think that's interesting.
01:32You and I kind of talked in the lead up to the show about where Colin is mentally.
01:36You see kind of the frustration with the media that's been building over the past few months.
01:40The caddy changes he's making now now twice in the season and just feeling like really dating back to the end of last season where he if there are no starting strokes of the tour championship,
01:53as there will be this year in Atlanta, he walks away with the trophy.
01:58And so that sort of press for at what point is my good play going to get rewarded with the win?
02:04How do you think it's a two part?
02:07Maybe we start with the first part, which is like, how do you find a caddy when you're in that mental state that can both cope with where you are in a state of really feeling like you're due to win or you're owed to win?
02:19But you also have this very unique set of shots and game that you can't just pick up in a five week span as Joe Griner has attempted to do.
02:27Yeah, I think it's it's a bit of trial and error with caddies to kind of figure out who's going to be the person that meshes the best with his, you know, verbal cues on, you know,
02:37it really isn't a very long time you have to say the right information and make sure that you don't screw up the player's mind and the shot that he sees.
02:45And sometimes that, you know, a caddy that comes in, they're going to ask more questions when a player maybe doesn't want to have more information to talk about.
02:56It's like, hey, I see this.
02:58And sometimes the caddy doesn't know what to say because it's such a different way to play the game that you really need somebody that really understands his game, which, hey, maybe maybe this guy that's caddy for him this week.
03:10It could be somebody that ends up caddying for him long term.
03:14I mean, Colin needs somebody that that can just help him kind of get through this little rough patch.
03:22And this is a perfect person to have somebody that he's that he's close with, knows his game.
03:27I think finding a high level PGA Tour caddy and it's going to take a minute.
