  That's gotta feel incredible.
• 1:27
  It does.
• 1:28
  Yeah.
• 1:28
  And and first off, thank you guys for coming all the way up here from South Dakota.
• 1:32
  Eight eight, nine hour drive to to to help us out, film some stuff, and and play in the
• 1:36
  tournament.
• 1:37
  That's huge.
• 1:37
  And and we're so happy to be affiliated with you guys and growing with you guys, and that's
• 1:42
  really special to us too.
• 1:43
  But, yeah, seeing seeing all these local people out here, people that we do men's league with,
• 1:48
  guys that I went to high school with, you know, and and and all their wives because, you know,
• 1:52
  we didn't we did coed.
• 1:53
  So all the wives out here, girlfriends, and and it was really just something really special.
• 1:58
  It was really cool to see.
• 1:59
  Well, and the women's team that you sponsor ended up taking third place.
• 2:01
  No help from their partners.
• 2:03
  Agreed.
• 2:03
  Agreed.
• 2:03
  Yes.
• 2:04
  The the women carried the team for sure.
• 2:06
  You know, that that's the skunk brand.
• 2:08
  You know?
• 2:08
  The the the women will carry the men's teams.
• 2:11
  And speaking of the women, we we were talking a little bit off camera about a growing women's
• 2:16
  line and kind of the new, direction that Skunks will be going.
• 2:21
  Talk a little bit about the future.
• 2:22
  We've seen what you've built so far.
• 2:24
  Today was a realization of so much that you guys have been dreaming of.
• 2:27
  Right.
• 2:27
  What's the future dream now?
• 2:29
  The future dream is just expand product.
• 2:31
  Right?
• 2:31
  I mean, that's that's that's what it's all about is to restock and expand.
• 2:35
  And I think there's a real like I was
• 2:38
  saying off the air, the mark the market is
• 2:40
  saturated for men's.
• 2:41
  Right?
• 2:41
  It's saturated.
• 2:42
  There's no way around it.
• 2:43
  But there's a there's a spot.
• 2:44
  There's an opening for women's clothing and women's golf apparel, and I think we can put
• 2:49
  our foot in the door there.
• 2:50
  But, of course, we're still gonna we're still gonna carry cater to both men and women.
• 2:55
  But, yeah, it's our future is just expanding product and taking any input we can get and
• 3:02
  turning that into a better product for everybody and and something that everybody can
• 3:06
  enjoy, something that's affordable for everyone.
• 3:08
  We're not trying to gouge people.
• 3:10
  So yeah.
• 3:11
  That's that's kinda what our future looks like.
• 3:13
  I mean, today was like a walking fashion show.
• 3:14
  Right?
• 3:15
  Yeah.
• 3:15
  Looking around for us.
• 3:16
  Like I said, my wife and I are the only ones at our local club who have skunked gear as of now.
• 3:20
  Right?
• 3:20
  Yeah.
• 3:20
  But today, walk around and see something some piece of every line on somebody.
• 3:25
