Cape Kidnappers

Well, um, [lips smack] that kind of reminds me of, uh, Stephen Ames.

Is he a New Zealander or maybe he's a South African? He was playing this course in New Zealand that I was at, and I was like, man, that's so wild that a pro is going out to play Cape Kidnappers at the same time I am.

Because the fact is, these golf courses that we're playing are not just cool for us 'cause we love golf.

Professional golfers love golf probably, and they're like, "Damn, I'd love to get my hands-

Tell us that story.

So I, uh, I just missed him, and we'd been down, uh, in, at Cape Kidnappers, Tom Doak had a Renaissance Cup, and I'd actually met his son at Barnbougle Dunes the week before that.

Michael Jr. was working at Barnbougle.

Didn't meet Michael Sr.

It's certainly, uh, it's certainly moved that way.

Julian Robinson came here, um, I, I wanna say probably 25 years ago, um, who was a, you know, a pretty, um, a very wealthy billionaire, and did Karri Cliffs and, uh, and Cape Kidnappers.

And just lo- He, he, he hiked New Zealand when he was a young fella and said, "I'm gonna come back and, and do this." Unfortunately, he's passed now, but his sons still have the, Alex and I can't remember the other guy's name, sorry, apologies for that.

But, um- Uh, they, they still run that.

Mm.

They go in between, they might go up to Kerikeri, um, and Napier to go to places like Kauri Cliffs and Cape Kidnappers-

Mm

... and then go down to Queenstown.

I've been up to Royal Dordock in Scotland and Turnberry and some of those.

But there's Cape Kidnappers down in New Zealand.

I don't know if you know that.

I can't oh yeah check that one out if you're able to do it with your fancy Google tech you sound so old

What's-

Cape Kidnappers too.

Golf course.

Lovely golf course.

...

Selwyn Sounds in March, and then, uh, my wife and I, we hopped up to Cape Kidnappers, played some golf up there, drank some great red wine.

I also, Christmas two years ago, we spent the whole, a whole 10 days up in, uh, north of Auckland in, in Te Ara, uh, Te Ara Eiti.

Oh, wow.

You know, man.

[laughs]

Cape Kidnappers, forget about it.

[laughs]

A beach.

This side of Cape Kidnappers, there's a beach there.

I don't recall its Maori name.

It's got a Maori name now and I don't recall it.
