What if I told you in today's episode, we are going to meet two of the longest drivers on the planet of the golf ball. 
Now imagine going to the driving range, teeing up the ball and hitting the ball so hard with your driver that you end up cracking the golf ball not once, but multiple times during your range session. Now, I'm great at imagining things, I am. But this one was hard for me to wrap my head around. This happens all the time to lawn drive guys.

On today's episode, we meet Sam Attanasio | Pro Long Driver and his Bus. Training partner Bryce Mooney /Pro Long Driver. Sam is one of three people on the planet to record a ball speed of over 240 mph! Bryce hit a drive in competition last year of over 433 yards! They have a secret weapon that could take their training and results further and they reveal what that weapon is on the podcast. Here's the kicker, you can actually use the same weapon in your own gain to quickly add tons of distance to your game. 

This one was one of my favorite interviews. These guys are extremely likable and their stories are so relatable and interesting. 

Let us know what you think and this is the fist episode to what is turning out to be an amazing year for the pod already. We have multiple large collaborations confirmed and scheduled that will take our audience on an exciting ride this year.

Albi's song... 

All my friends say no man, not that story again,

Too late, it was a 2 on a par 5 in a tournament for the win 

What's next Q&A, Van Pelt me on ESPN? 

sports hero CP3 and me finally friends 

Lebatard, Stephen A, or is it straight to Fallon?

Want me to ghostwrite a note 

So you can blast to your friends?

Only crickets seem to chirp, boasting makes me the jerk

It's cool, I'll blow it up, Until my shot's on a shirt

Reddit, Twitter, YouTube - man social go berserk.

Panda, let's deliver the goods so we can both quit work.

Local channels didn't call,

Somehow no trophy, y'all

So, I made my own case

For this damn golf ball

One in six mill supposedly the odds,

Then again, last shot to win, that’s the reason for the pod.

Best shot ever at my club, then where's my plaque,

the best shot ever was played here, best on the planet in fact

An albatross to win a tourney, what tops that?

Save the claps, dap, not looking for that,

Just acknowledge its one of the luckiest shots ever… perhaps

I give credit where credit is due, and credit should be given on a par 5 and score a 2 

Then sprinkle in, last shot of tourney for the win, forgive my grin, 

As I remind you the name of the pod again

Did I tell you about my albatross… my albatross 

We gamble heavy and spend hall passes on golf trips,

Picture it, 36 a day with my boys from the tips

Our pod covers it, and celebrates golf's degenerates

Golf is the best, but could use a little less etiquette.

Zero subscribers and yet listener prerequisites.

No Ball retrievers, no glove putters, and yes to animal spirits

Sir nik, pandas, cranes, and sea turtles named Ocean Knight

To Bald Eagles, Shepherds, falcons and Albi fits me right,

Whose albi, you say? Why, does that one seem off?

Well, did I ever tell you about my albatross?
