 Welcome to episode six of Stay With Talk. We have Will Ford and Amanda Perez from the golf team with us today. Will finished with four top five finishes last year and Amanda won the LVC Fall Invitational. But if you guys just want to tell us about, I don't know, your hometowns, your majors, when you started playing golf, etc. So yeah, I'm a junior. I'm a business admin major. I'm on the sport management track, looking to go to law school after. My parents just moved to Leesburg, Virginia, but I grew up in Jersey, a little town called Tom's River. So like the Jersey Shore, if you've ever seen that show. I started playing golf when I was about five, but didn't really get serious until high school. And then yeah, I'm Steven. Are there better golf courses in New Jersey or Maryland? Or are they about the same? Jersey has like the big name golf courses. So like the old like famous ones that a lot of the pros would play at like Baltus Raw. Jersey has those. Nice. I have to say Jersey. All right, Mr. Green screen. So I, I'm from Righteous Town, but my parents, we actually just moved from that house about 10 minutes away to Lutherville. I'm a senior business admin major with a track and entrepreneurship. And I started playing golf kind of late. I didn't play until freshman year of high school. I used to play lacrosse. And I finally switched, started playing a lot of tournaments. And yet decided that I actually went to High Point freshman, sophomore year, tried to walk on that didn't work out. So that's the reason I came to Steven's and try to play on the golf team. And one of the guys last year hooked me up. So I all kind of worked out well. I kind of like goes into my first golf Q&A for you guys is she says she started playing at age five, but didn't really get serious to high school. Like, when you're at age five, like, what is golf, what is golf like when you're five years old? Smaller clubs. I think I've ever even seen a club that's like, so you're just trying to ball at that point. So like, would disappear every Sunday, but this is how I got into it. My dad would disappear every Sunday. And then I guess I kind of figured out what was happening. And I said, I want those like wherever you go. And so he got me the, like a little tiny set, we still have like my first club. And he put me into like these group sessions of like, at the, at the local driving range. Get distracted by the other kids. I would like watch them and I'd be like, what are they doing? And my dad's like, just focused on you. Just, just, but I really liked the coach. So the coach, the PGA pro at the driving range was like, I'll teach her all like do little, little like lessons for her. And fun and like give me ice cream if I got it in the basket or whatever. Ice cream is always good. That's what golf is like. Rewards. I love the ice cream rewards. Yes. What's it like playing for coach Ramer. So, so when I first met Ramer, I was kind of forewarned that, you know, he was energetic guy, maybe a little on the quirky side. He was, he was, he's super nice. I mean, he's gonna, he's gonna crack jokes with you and at you. If you mess around, but he's a great guy to play with. He's got a lot of energy for a guy's age. Does he golf with you guys? No, I've never seen him swing. Ever seen him swing? No. That's hilarious. He's just very encouraging. He's the guy like, if you're not playing well on the course, he'll start talking to you about what you want for dinner after the round. Like, you will get your mind off of it. He wants us, he wants to be so bad, but he wants us to win for us. Like he's like, you guys to have fun, enjoy it and just win for you. Like, I know you guys care about it. So he, he's very encouraging. Um, what has been your longest round of golf? Oh, how many? Longest, like time wise. Yeah, definitely played a six and a half hour round. Oh my God. 18 holes in six and a half hours. I'm sorry. 18 holes in that long. Yeah, I mean, that's like, definitely we've hit like five and a half, six ish hours for college somewhere along the way. Yeah. Why? Like getting stuck behind people or whether or just cause naturally. I mean, make sure of those, but just like a lot of, like a lot of people were just slow golfers. And I think me and Amanda are on the fast side, but a lot of people in division three aren't. And yeah, it's just who you're playing with. You get stuck behind people a lot. Yeah. I mean, the tournament's usually do like a solid job of getting guys to speed up when they're kind of slowing down. So they don't hold groups up, but yeah, you do get some of that. They're definitely slow. It just depends. They're slow because their tournaments people want to play well. But then when you're at the age of like 14, 15, it's not at the college level. So everybody's just hitting it OB, hitting it out of bounds, taking 10 shots to get out of the sand. And then it all just adds up. Like as people going, it adds up especially. I was playing some a week off with my little sister last night, got some nice birdies in. We go off. The week off is the best. I like the week off. I like the week off more than the bowling sometimes. We go off is fun. And there was like a little mini game of like chipping. And I was like, Oh yeah, this is it. Like chipping with the Wii. All right. Last Q&A. What's your favorite golf course you've ever played on and why? Will you go? Best golf course prior to Pinehurst number two. What and where is that? It's in Pinehurst, North Carolina. It's about, man, is it closer to Raleigh? I forget where North Carolina Pinehurst is, but yeah. But somewhere. But they used to, I think they held like the 2014 U.S. Open there. And I played it like the year after that. So that was pretty cool. Nice. But yeah, that's a big like hub for golf courses. North Carolina, Pinehurst. My favorite has to be the Golden Horseshoe Gold course. It's in Williamson, Virginia. The Golden Horseshoe you said. Yeah, Golden Horseshoe. Is there a Golden Horseshoe there? There's horseshoe shaped bunkers. Nice. I just love the layout. I mean, if you ask any golfers courses that we love and we hate, and it's usually because of the layout when you know, like, sometimes you just jive with how the course is set up and what it is, but that course is just always in great condition. I mean, it's a public course. So anyone can really play it and the way they keep it, you'd think it's a country club. So it's just one of my favorites. I've been playing since, playing there since probably I was like, well, okay, we're now we're going to play. Would you rather. So the last question, both of you will answer. Would you rather go to the moon or Mars? And why? Mars. I want to get a moon and just jump around. Yeah, that would be so much fun. Is the gravity different on Mars or is it the same? Do they know people can like breathe on Mars yet? I don't know. I don't think so. I don't think anyone's tried yet, but maybe you, maybe you can go and try. Yeah, you can go try first person on Mars. We've been watching like, I don't know what it is lately. We've been watching so much stuff about space, like, because on Netflix, they have that show away. We're going to talk better about the Challenger. So we've been talking about space a lot here. I watched a lot of space stuff ever quarantine just because there was like nothing else to do. Yeah. Have you guys seen the Martian with Matt? Yeah. Yeah, I mean, that was a true story, right? That's the one where he like turns his poop into like plants. Yeah. He literally make grow potatoes out of the ground on Mars. I don't know how you did that. Yeah. What a crazy, it was a crazy movie. Pretty good one. Pretty satisfying. Yeah. All right. Would you rather your only mode of transportation be a donkey or a giraffe? Giraffe. My favorite animals. Yes. I say giraffe too. Yeah. I guess what donkeys jump a bunch. The drafts would be fast. Would be the. Yeah. Yeah. I guess. And like if you wrote a donkey, people would look at you like you're weird when you wrote a giraffe and like, oh my God, that's so cool. Would you rather only be able to use a fork and only be able to use a spoon. That means no soup. If I'm using a fork, but no steak. Actually, I could use my hands. Probably a spoon. I don't know. You could scoop the steak with a spoon, but you can't. If I wanted to cut it with a fork. No. Yeah. Yeah. I can't scoop soup. Yeah. It's gotta be a spin. I don't need enough soup. I don't. I don't. On a sick day. I guess. Oh my God. My cereal. Yes. And then my take is of a milk. Figure it out. All right. Would you rather have all dogs you see try to attack you. Or all birds you see, try to attack you if you're a. Pretty unfortunate question. assume. Like they can attack you with love. If I saw an eagle coming from my head, I would probably scream. What about a big German Shepherd? I actually had a big German Shepherd chase at me angrily. I was a kid. It bit me, but... Do you have PTSD from this and from this? A little bit, a little bit. I would choose bird. I feel like I could contain a bird. There's many dogs much bigger than me, so I think I could contain the bird. I'm like afraid of birds, so I'd have to give the dog growl. Especially like seagulls. Seagulls like flapping their wings at you, like near the beach. This freaks me out. PTSD from seagulls. Yeah. Okay, now we're going to do rapid fire, so I'll do Amanda first, and then Jay will do Will. It'll be four questions each, and as soon as I say the question, you have to answer immediately. I know I'm thinking. Amanda, you're first. Are you ready? Yeah. What's your favorite carb? Bread, pasta, rice, or potatoes? Red. What is something you could eat for a week straight? Chicken farm. What color is your toothbrush? Blue. If a movie was made of your life, what genre would it be? A comedy. Also, who would play you? Emma Roberts, I think, or the one that was in Screen Queens, an American horror story. She dated, I forget his name. I have no idea. I don't know. One of those. A short brunette, anyone? I'm impressed how you can remember what color toothbrush you have that quickly. It's like blue and green. You can do that pretty quickly. It wouldn't take me that quick. I'm not interested every day. I'm staring at it. All right, Will. All right. How old were you when you had your first bad haircut? You remember? I was like 12. First time I got a buzz cut. What was your worst job? Worst job? We'd wacky my dad's eight acre property fence line, which took me four hours. What is the most useless talent you have? Useless talent. I'm double-jointed, I guess. I don't think that's a talent, but it's a weird chord. I don't know. If you were a ghost, where would you haunt and why? I'd probably haunt my old house. I don't know. I miss that place. All right, we got some golf trivia for you guys now. Let's see. All right. How many PPAs? Oh, 80. Wait, what did you say? How many PPAs? Tiger Woods one. Tiger Woods? Yeah. One or two. I don't know. One or two? No, 80. I'm going to say 82. Yeah, you got it. Yeah, that was the answer. I don't know why. There's also one of the major golf championships this Tiger Woods have. Does that mean the majors or what does that mean? Yeah, majors. I got in at 15. He was one of the masters. What's the major? Two for two. Let's see how they're happy Gilmore knowledges. What is the name of Happy Gilmore's first tournament? The Water Barrier Open. Yeah. There we go. But you couldn't forget that. The rare three. I think that was the best trail we've ever done. Yeah. I think we're very good at it. Oh man, I'm sorry that you didn't get to answer it. It's okay. I trusted you. I was like, you got this. Go. Yeah, that was the rare three for three. Only we see a lot of O for threes. Or we see a lot of like, we ask a question and they just keep spitting answers after one another until they like get it right. We're like, no, you can't do it. I was about to scream. Well, we always tell people they have to tell their favorite coach story. Yeah. What's your favorite coach Reimers story or anyone coach, I guess, or any like Stevenson golf stories that you think the people should hear about. Oh, okay. I have a good coach Reimers story. I mean, there's many. So, two years ago, we went to Nationals in Houston and he has a big thing about phones. You don't touch your phone when we're eating dinner. You don't touch your phone like when we're having a team conversation and he calls it your toy. So, we fly back from Houston and we land and obviously we're all on our toys the whole flight. I mean, it's like four or five hours. So, whatever. And yelling at us, he's like, oh, you ladies are so slow getting your bags. Like, you're always on your toys, like, so we pass the door. That's like, no going back. Like, you can't go back and we get to baggage claim and he looks at all of us and he goes, I left my toy on the phone. So, he's like asking the baggage claim people what he should do and like where he needs to go to get his phone. And we're like, you know what, this is what you get. You're yelling at us to hurry up. Get it back. Oh, Reimer always gets what he wants. When I tell you he would have went on the landing strip if I had to. Like, there's a mess, but that's a funny one. There's so many more. Like, there's so many that it's just like, that's the first one that came to mind. I love when like, old people are just like, so out of touch with like their phones and their like technology that they, they'll walk. They'll literally live with my grandparents. They'll like walk anywhere. And then like an hour later, there's like, oh my God, where's my phone. I love that. Cause like, I kind of wish I was like that, but I'm not at all. My grandfather is so funny. He just got an iPhone and I sent him like a message the other day and he just sends back like a blank message. And then he put, I'm so sorry. I don't know why my message is like you did that. Not your messages, but it's like, it's just so cute, but it's so yeah, it's funny. AC, do you have any good quotes to end on today? Oh yeah, unless Will wants to tell a story, we can end on, we are trying to end all the podcasts on like the quotes. Or if anyone has a good quote. Or if anyone has a fun fact or something. Good, good quote. Yeah, any good, any good motivation? Oh, I got a Ramer quote. It's not gonna resonate with any of you probably. He said, is don't be nervous. Don't get nervous. Don't get nervous. Or no, attitude. Here's the word that he says that. Attitude determines altitude. That's a good one. That's a good one. I don't really know Ramer clearly know what it means. Okay, this one, this is just random. May today be the Friday is Friday that ever Friday. Yeah. T G I F. Do you guys want to like plug, plug anything like Instagram or shout outs to families? I'll shout out my girl. They're the best. Yeah. Two new friends. Did you shout out the girls team? Yeah, I did. All right, I'll shout out my boys.
