Yeah. It's not bad, but I got something that's gonna make it even better. Tier, try this. Dude, I have never had a ball like that in my entire life. Yeah. I mean, you know, these new clubs just have so much, like, AI in them, and this one has a flux capacitor main forged face, you know, uranium backing plate. I mean, it just goes for miles. Best irons on the market right now. I do remember reading something about that. I'm sold. What's the price on them? Yes. We're actually running a Black Friday special on them right now, so they're only 2,800. It's a little more than I'm looking to spend, to be honest. No. I totally get that. But, I mean, 10 to 15 yards longer on the worse. I mean, can you really put a price on that? Man, I am tired of being a short hitter in my group. You know what? I'll take them. I no you'd love them. Let me get you rank up. Oh, and by the way, we have a rewards program. You spend $10,000 here, you get a $5 gift card.
