In this episode, I sit down with Matt Lemman of Jones Sports Co. to talk about the quiet grind of rebuilding a legacy—one bag, one story, and one relationship at a time. We get into everything from the early days reverse-engineering vintage designs to building trust with a new generation of golfers.
