Ep109: Bradley Hughes – Tour Pro & Champion | Talk Birdie To Me Podcast

Live from Titleist and FootJoy HQ, today we have a very special guest – Tour Pro Bradley Hughes.

Mark Allen particularly is a bit excited today as we have one of his heroes on the pod, the legendary Bradley Hughes has joined us at the Talk Birdie To Me desk.

Hugo tells us how he got into golf, and Mark asks him why he chose golf over football – he was a very good footy player. He also talks about his experiences with Greg Norman as a young player. Nick asks Hugo about his acceleration and ball striking.

We find out about the process of turning pro, and how his first tournament went. Hugo had a dream start to his pro career, playing very well, very early.

Hugo describes his first year in Europe as a ‘disaster’ and explains why. He tells Nick and Mark what the pinnacle of Hugo’s tournament career was. He played in the inaugural Presidents Cup and explains what that was like, and when he had a crack at his playing partner Nick Price.

Mark asks Hugo about his coaching techniques, and he explains why he initially ignores grip and swing, and just teaches people how to flush the ball. He tells us about his ‘guinea pig’ student.

Hugo gets into the simulator to show us what he teaches – apologies for the audio here, we’re still working on that mic, but you’ll be able to hear his comments – and when the video goes up you can watch Hugo in the simulator.

Hugo explains and shows how his DownUnder board works. It’s a game changer and you can order at the website here and he has a website with over 600 training videos that you can watch, as a member, here. Cheap as chips considering the calibre of Hugo, and the information he’s outlining.

A cracking guest pod, and great to have the legendary Bradley Hughes dropping by.

birdie to me and as promised I’m happy to say uh we’ve got a very good friend of mine someone I looked up to as a Young Man someone who won two Australian Masters he played many many US opens got to uh us Masters as well but I can tell you this Nick when Bradley Hughes first went to Europe I think one of his first rounds was a 10 under pass 62 I promise you this caddies in Europe were having punch-ups to see who could caddy for this bike and that is as true as it gets and Bradley H good to see you mate thanks so much for coming in it really is good to see you it’s awesome to be back and see you guys uh tell us about those early days man I remember you as a 14y old kid you were you know shooting scores that 14y old kids shouldn’t be able to shoot you were obviously something special um you know I played in the State team with you and I think you went through undefeated and you six or seven under every single round it was it was just ridiculous what was it what Drew you to golf I think I disliked the individuality of golf I thought you know I was a football player growing up but I really I really loved the practice of golf I kind of enjoyed playing football but I didn’t like the practice the training and all that you know running laps doing push-ups you were a star footballer you were star you were I got signed to play for Melbourne yeah for the Dem I was young but uh yeah that took a seriously took a back seat pretty pretty soon after I played that Vic open on my 15th birthday oh was it your 15th so you qualified when you were 14 correct yeah okay and I was actually leading after eight holes I was two under through eight holes in that T I got to the ninth green and I saw my name on the scoreboard and I thought no I got to get out I promptly double bogied that hole and and evaporated myself off the board uh unreal um you you had this golf swing where you know it’s very different to what they teach today you had this huge one piece takeaway was that from my golf Jack Nicholas’s book or golf my way indirectly uh so obviously Greg Norman and my birthday is the same birthday same date he’s 12 years older than I am but the first time I ever really went to the golf and saw a star play was him at Kingston Heath in 1979 my dad let me take the day off school I walked onto the first tea at Kingston Heath it was a Monday Believe It or Not Greg Norman was there on the tea with his caddy yeah so I just said I know this guy I’m going to go watch him and it was just me his caddy and him for 18 holes I walked around talked to him watched asked some questions and then I bolted back to rosow golf club and I kind of tried to practice everything I learned from that day so he taught him myself off golf my way so that’s why I set in directly Nicholas Norman and then me I just I loved the feel of the wide back swing cuz it set the down swing for you and my footwork was kind of like Gregs you know I had to use my feet really strongly to propel the you know stop the force of the club moving and that was how my swing was built well I remember in the late 90s when I was sort of coming under the pro circuit you know how Mark you know how you walk on the Range and players stop and watch well one of them was always Greg Norman you know you watch Greg and hit these shots and the other player I always remember was people would stop and watch you Brad because your ball striking was unbelievable and the speed you created Through The Hitting Zone was just effortless number one but so much power the acceleration acceleration was off the charts yeah it certainly was so is is where did that come from is that just a natural gift growing up or was it more through technique or was it a you tell I never had it I think I understood you know I I was very analytical without being analytical I could see or even asking like asking Greg and and I you know like yourself I’ve been fortunate to hang around a lot of great players over my golf career and sometimes you know great players aren’t teachers but they they can give you uh details of what they’re thinking feeling and seeing or what I can see in their swing so I kind of went beyond what they were telling me and I could see these differences that they were doing and I just believed that impact is just a spot in the swing it’s not the end of the Swing so I just really realize that you know my target is over that way so I I want to pay attention to out there so it does make a different sound as you know like you’re basically compressing the ball harder for longer and it makes a a deeper sound which is what Norman had and Sandy ly and woozy and a few other guys yeah that’s it’s a it’s funny that’s a similar philosophy to my old coach Neil Simpson he said look the ball is not your your target it’s actually through the ball he always said to me look through the target basically um out to the in the distance that’s where I want you to get the club head too the ball just kind of gets in the way well I think golf’s still a Target game it’s not a golf swing game yeah so that makes 100% sense I I can’t wait to talk about your golf coaching down the track but let’s just in this front n let’s just talk about your career I reck you got off to a hot start did you you won the West Australian Open early days and then that was almost you know a stop over to Europe what can you remember about that first win uh so I had played for Australia I won the New Zealand Amer and we played in Thailand we played the world Amer in Sweden and when I got back from the Swedish trip the Eisenhower cup I turned Pro and back in the day then they had a a rule if you won the Australian am or the New Zealand am you didn’t have to go go to Q school so I was basically granted an exemption because of the New Zealand win but I did have to go Monday qualify for the first tournament which was the Tasmanian open and we played at Tasmania Golf Club so this is October 88 yeah 21 years old and I thought oh let’s go for it I’ve kind of won enough salt and pepper shakers and toasters and things let’s go try and win some money so I um I went to Tasmania on Monday qualified and back in the day if people don’t remember if you made the cut you would advance to the next tournament if you were top 60 the previous year you’d get in everything so if you played well there was a chance that you would continue playing you didn’t have to qualify every week so I went to uh Tasmania and I shot 79 in the first round and I I basically got The Yips I puted awful I had three putts all over the place and I thought what is going on like so the second day I got on the prce to screen and I just tried cross-handed for some reason and I put a great and I ended up shooting 69 7069 I came s so you made the cut after shooting 79 yeah I shot 7969 I mean the cuts were a little bit higher back in the day but that course is tough you know in the wind and I so not only did I make the cut I came top 10 I made $3,033 remember that thought I was pretty rich um that would go on an airfare and a fishing chips nowadays but I uh so that got me in the New South Wales open up at Concord I came 12th kept going on to the next week and I got to Western Australia we played at Lake kenup and the greens were incredibly fast like you could drop a ball on the 18th hole which I think is the ninth now but um it would fall off the front of the green they were they were lightning they were like Royal Melbourne back in the day speed and I started off and I I shot four over the front nine and then I came home I don’t know if this is a record it probably is I shot four over my first nine and I was leader at the end of the first round that’s a record wow so I shot 4031 one under was leading that’s how tough the course was and then I had 71 the second day 67 the third day and opened up a three or four shot lead did not sleep yeah didn’t know sleep at all not on Saturday night because you get all those dreams of what if I I’m getting exempt I’m making $188,000 and all that so I I I played okay I I got a little bit nervous and I fell over the line by one so I went 7th 12th win and that solidified my exemption I want to know Mark you you had the course record to like Caren up did you break his course record or I had the course record for a very short period of time but I did have it there at 66 in the west Australian Open I don’t know 99 it might have been okay but the golf course was was a tough course wasn’t it I mean it was it could they could trick it up to where it would play very very very difficult so you move from that win and then you get over now was it your first round that was 10 under the par or something crazy in Europe yeah play I played 10 tournaments that year in the Aussie tour we had a pretty long stretch I made all 10 cuts and had the win so 1989 is now the following year and because I played so well I got rookie the year so I got some invitations to Japan I went up to Japan I came fourth in my first event there and unreal came made the cut in the other one and it’s a dream start to a career I mean everything you’re saying is amazing back then golf to me was easy and I didn’t think much I just played like I wish you know we all wish we could bottle that and just do that forever but I ended up getting an invite to the Benson Hedges tournament which wasn’t until August you know later in the year but I did some growing grw some teeth and went to Canada and played over there on a couple events on my way to Europe and the Benson Hedges had a great history the Aussies uh I think Norman won it gr Marsh Jack Newton n Ratcliffe petroy so no Ratcliffe won it did he yeah so there was a lot of great players so they gave me an invite to that and the first round I ever played in Europe I hate to say this is probably a record but I hope it is 10 under in your first round in Europe probably got to be a record no one’s done that and I obviously was in the papers and getting pictures and all the stuff and it was pretty overwhelming but I shot uh underpar the next two days and I actually played Final group on Sunday and I went out with a little par birdie start and I just start I’m going to win this thing and then I half hled a four IR on a PA three into a bush and I made a triple bogy and that was the end of that but I did come top 10 came ninth overall in that tournament and then I got some more invitations you I played the Swiss open up in CR year the European open I play with Brian Barnes and Sandy like all these it was really cool experienced and then at the end of that season I went to European tour School and came third so I had my card for Europe in 90 right and you were there for a few years I believe that year was a little bit of a disaster I didn’t for some reason I just didn’t pick it up where I was I had people staying at my apartment there and it was just crowded and it was just you know I had something like I was in Richmond okay yeah with Ted lasso and all those so uh yeah and I I just didn’t perform well and I changed paths after that and ended up going to Japan for a few years instead before ultimately getting to America right so I look at your career and you know I hold the Australian Masters very dearly To Be A two-time Champion a couple of gold you still got the gold jackets I do that at my house unbelievable with the shirt that I wore the last day under really me out of interest to you Dawn the jacket every now and then I don’t know it’s under glass I’d have to cut it open to do that Craig Spence does he still brings it out the dinner table every once in a while um what was the Pinnacle when you look back at your breant career I mean a US tour player for quite some time and a reputation for being one of the best hitters of a golf ball the world had ever seen what do you consider the Pinnacle of your tournament career I would say well I was fortunate to play all the Masters uh all the majors I mean sorry the Masters us four us opens for British opens in a PGA that was fun that was the stuff we grew up watching on television um individually probably the Australian Masters that was a massive tournament back in the day and you know as we saw in the clips and all that the crowd was crazy and it was a big tradition like everyone used to go there well the world number one world number two were there that week in ‘ 93 that’s right yeah yeah so Greg Norman and Nick PR you clipped them too I clipped them yeah was that was well that’s funny that’s the that’s as high as I got that was that’s my moment in time but I mean that that that people don’t realize just how big those winds were back in the day I mean we look back at them and it was nice little tourn it’s not the Australian Masters was world renowned wasn’t it it had great world ranking points I think from playing that and playing in Japan you know I was playing in Japan most of that year I got top 70 in the world just you know without even really playing in America which is Big achievement you know cuz the points were a little bit lower but um you know the probably the President’s Cup was my biggest highlight I was going to ask actually yeah you played in the first one I played in the inaugural one it was a little bit of a mishap because I’d been to the meetings I was not selected but as it happened a player had to pull out right at the uh last minute and I was next in line so flew from Japan to Washington and two days later teed up with world number one Nick price against Fred Couples and Davis Love I blacked out on the first but I did I did Birdie three of the first eight holes wow and and we were five down they birdied all eight you are kidding me and then uh this Probably sounds a bit Reckless but I on the ninth T Nick price yeah he just won the PGA the open the Canadian open he was number one and I looked at him I said come on price you’re number one in the world you meant to be better than this pull your finger out so we uh we actually went on a roll there and by the time he h a five on on the 13th and I birdie 14 and 12 we got back to square oh but we ended up losing on the second one one down but it was awesome to be part of and you know do the White House and be part of the first one well I reckon you’ve just ripped up our front nine here as well I’m I’m going to take a quick break and have a talk about your coaching career and I’m just looking up some of the names that you you know currently you’ve got Brenan Todd Peter Mel nardy Mark hensby Cameron PCY Jeff ogy Mt Goen Tom parah hor and all great players but some of these other players you’ve had coached in the past Harold Varner Branch stica Luke Donald former of the world number one OE Schneider Jans BR mcferson Robert ellenby um Russell KNX Scot McCaron there’s some really big names I want to know more about your coaching career and just a tick [Music] we’re live from our studio at tidalist and FootJoy

here’s Nick and Mark so you’re a complete flusher of the golf pool um sound distance trajectory that that shot at the last Nick I just want to tell you that the last shot at the 72nd hole a three on I think it was 199 yards I’m guessing yeah 199 yard into a pretty heavy wind Hugo had this low start to his long LS where it would start low it would rise and then it get to the top and then it would somehow drift left magically with his big drawer and it came down as soft as you’ve ever seen a three iron land on those greens too on those greens and the noise was outrageous just how loud it was like I said I I I had goosebumps I did the next job with goosebumps and I hit the scoreboard which which you know we all laugh good on you thanks no worri thanks for laughing um but I I imagine that’s the way you remember to hit a golf ball but how do you go about teaching others with their limitations some of them would have and um and obviously some of their gifts as well I mean it must be I know from your perspective from the way that you could actually crunch a ball to teaching others how to play the game well I always tell people you know when I’m doing lessons and remember when I first started teaching I wasn’t that good at it I would just kind of regurgitate stuff that I’d heard or been taught but then I I thought I don’t want to do this so I took like six months off coaching took a back seat and I studied all uh not only what I did or what I thought I did but initially I looked at bad swings or what people commonly referred to as bad swings which you Lee Travino Peter Senor Chi-Chi Rodriguez uh you know even Arnold Palmer you know people would say they not politically correct golf it’s true but they all did these certain things in the certain places so what I learned was the golf ball doesn’t care what your swing looks like it only cares about the physics and the forces and the Dynamics that you put on it so I kind of worked out a way of teaching where I pay zero attention to grip and I pay zero attention to back swing for starters I just teach someone how to flush it first yeah and then once you learn to flush it then you learn to keep the flush going with the post impact stuff which we talked about like you can’t just pressure the ball you’ve got to pressure the swing to the end and then where it goes you learn to aim or you learn to ball position for it so it’s not that hard so I kind of designed a series that I do with people and the first guy I ever did with was a beginner not very good couldn’t break 130 every shot a wedge or a three-wood went 40 yards forward and 30 yards right they all would have you could put a basket out there and these three-wood and wedge would land in the same basket so I I said to him look I got this theory about how to teach I’d love to test it out on you like you’re my guinea pig so I tried this thing and the first lesson I did is drill one where I teach people how to uh what I call the 430 path which we can explain another time we’ll look it up on Google I’ll get you on the simulator and a tick you can show us so I kind of said this is where all the best players came from this is how they release the club to make it work and they force the club back on the plane to hit the low point and all that so he did this drill and said all right go away and I’ll see you in three weeks like just do that for me and he rang me up I got a phone call at 11:30 one night very late and he was too excited he had to call me goes I got to tell you said I just broke a 100 for the first time wow and this is two weeks later and we’ve only done the one drill that’s fantastic and I said that’s awesome and he go no that’s not the best P said I shot 86 so he dropped 44 shots of his best score just learning this one wow thing so from that moment on I thought this is going to work so that’s kind of the way I’ve taught it’s it’s more drill work that you do at home because it’s less ball orientated but the ball ends up reacting to it so and this is the fourth was it the 430 path Yeah well yeah you got to explain the 430 path let’s get let’s get him out so the way I teach people is I want them I teach people from their perspective I don’t teach from a a coaching perspective I don’t coach from down the line I want to coach them from what they see so you you pour a golfer because the ball is not level with their eyes it’s down here they want to hit the back of the ball so their main intention is to start hitting the back of the ball you know really early in the swing and by the time they get to the ball the club is coming across it so they’re the big SL or the pull or the open face so what I get them to imagine is there’s a big clock on the ground from their View and the ball is the middle the clock so my feet are at 6:00 from this View and then the extension of where our Target is would be 3:00 so they’re trying to get used to seeing the shaft come from the clock line of 4:30 so from the camera view or from a construction view that would be obviously different but we know the club works on an so it has to work around down this Viewpoint from their perspective so you’ve got to teach the goal for what it looks like for them and what you’ll kind of find is if I put that shaft on the 430 part that’s what all the good players look like right just turn a little bit to your left there so just we get it on the camera uh no no no Mark it’s this one here bottom right yeah it’s over here so this would be too steep right that’s 3:00 path that’s the 4:30 so if I try and hit this ball if I just if I just you can see how easy it is to hit the ball straight and what happen is the club Works around and down to strike the ground in the right spot and you don’t fat it or thin it but it also encourages what Nick knows is that as my arms are rotating this way my body moves with it so it teaches me to keep going and I’m assuming yeah because Mark’s holding this board the Down Under board uh I’m assuming for yourself a lot of its footwork from the lower part you mentioned earlier you players like Travino and Rodriguez and all the Arnold Palmer and all that if you kind of go above hip high basically and the back swing and the follow through that’s probably whatever it is but I’m assuming it’s the low point where their feet are really working the most is that has to do with this invention the underboard obviously I named it because I’m from Australia but the uh it was down under your feet so it’s been one of the really instrumental things in helping Brandon Todd get better because he was very tall and he wouldn’t use the ground you know most people early extend and that’s kind of typical because when we jump or throw we always push and then we extend the hips of pelvis and then we throw so obviously if I’m hitting a golf ball this is instinctive and then my body goes the other way I’m already too far away from the wall so I have to um you know throw basically throw the club ball with the the hands so using the the board it provides a really strong pressure in my feet that I continue to go down to hi ball rather than away from the ball are you squeezing squeezing yes you’re squeezing the board I’m squeezing the board both feet inwards and what happens is it teaches this right leg to drive and teaches the left leg to stay and what happens is I’m now providing force that I can pull my body away and see what happened to the it’s like the Sheffer and great Norman and kind of what I did yeah so if I start with squeezing the board and I keep squeezing until I here then my feet can dissipate away from the bo so you kind of watch what happens to my feet you watch I know my after impact stuff watch how fast it happens you can see the the presses that I’m teaching my feet CU you have to provide that way PA he said sets us all up after after impact so you teaching the big names that you teach on Tu are you teaching him teaching them that sort of stuff absolutely they’re all on the Down Under board they all have a board uh you know Luke Donald had one Brandon Todd always goes wherever he wants to go with it he has it there all the time I wish You’ have invented this 20 years ago might have helped well yeah it’s um obviously most people not unsure of it they they know it works but they probably don’t understand the full benefits so initially I used it to push to pull push harder for longer the more you push the more you rotate your lower half open and the harder you can pull your body so what that does is it stops the hands from flipping over because the faster my body moves the harder I can hit it and not flip the club over so pretty famous people used to say you know the best players that they wish they had three right hand that’s exactly you Ben Hogan I think David grahe was another one he he’s he seemed to think that there’s no possible way I can hit it left if I’m accelerating through correct and the board helps you set that up and you don’t even have to know about it you just have to do it and train it so that was the main concept of it for my drill two and three which is footwork and pressure and then post impact but then what I found was um I used it with vaugh Taylor who i t on tour a little bit too and he said I set up Square now when the board’s there I squeeze and I can see that I normally want to have open hips and close shoulders so it squared him up it helps you do the one piece takeaway helps you turn your chest you know separation of upper body against lower body helps you push down so it basically you know and I’m biased cuz I invented it but I I think it’s probably the best swing Aid probably ever made because it’s not ryant on just one part it it covers the whole swing from start to finish especially in a world where every time I turn the TV on there’s somebody saying Ground Forces correct now you know the only Grand forces I can remember Nick was maybe when I was trying to straighten my left leg or something but you know that’s that’s not really foot down or something yeah something like that yeah so you you were you thinking about this stuff early in your uh professional career or as a career as a kid was it just things you did naturally it’s one of the things I learn off Greg Norman now if you watch him back in the 80s maybe even the 70s certainly early 90s if you imagine him setting up to the ball you can almost see him physically push himself into the ground before he took the club away so what he was doing was he was building all that Force into his feet and legs to then shift away from wow so what I do is I teach him to train with that cuz it’s pretty severe and then you’ll like this Mark I might even show you this today after um if I want to hit a normal shot I press my feet like I’m using the board to a seven out of 10 like seven pressures 10 Max and then I swing so that’s my normal standard distance that I could hit a club now if I want to hit it a bit further I push to an eight or a nine and I don’t change my swing my swing goes faster it’ll just go faster and if the ground pressures correct and if I drop it to a five or a six I can then take some yardage off so I can make the same swing without feeling that I swing harder or feeling that I swing softer or shorter or longer and create different distances wow which is pretty useful under the gun of tournament golf that you just go at pressure not how far do I have to go hard do I have to do it so who who benefited the most of of the people that you have coached who benefited the most out of the ground pressure stuff and the and the down underboard I’d definitely say Brandon Todd when I first started work with him he was 2500 in the world and had missed like 40 out of 43 cards and then within a year we got his card back and within 14 months he won twice in a row I remember this yeah certainly certainly him based on where he was at that point in his career he was he was about a month away from giving up Golf and opening a pizza store wow and and and made $15 million yeah it’s it’s not bad is it well I hope you get a little cutter there anyway I wish I got so so so with Brandon I haven’t heard much of him lately cuz his game’s gone a little bit off the boil I heard he’s not working with you anymore but he’s coming back is that right that’s right yeah we stopped working in July last year that’ll teach him well ultimately I can’t blame him because I try and make my golfers self-sufficient that they don’t need me the best coaches do that yeah sort of phase myself out it’s not a good business plan but it’s a good plan for your golfer cuz but you know he’s struggled a little bit so just before I I ventured my way back to Australia we got he got in touch with me and said he’s is really struggling so we’re going to start up again when I get back and well as we finish up do you do some online stuff because I reckon everyone who’s listening in is uh you know as as locked in as Nick and I are now he’s have certainly picked up I’ll be squeezing my feet together a few golfs I know that well the other thing is where can people get the down underboard cuz I want to get one myself so yeah well the down underboard you can go the website down underboard tocom and they have them we have them in Melbourne to ship so it’s not as if it has to come from America um as far as myself I have my website Bradley Hughes golf.com if you look under the lesson area you can get in touch with me how to do the lessons or buy my drill series and then one of the better things that I did is I you know initially I was a YouTuber I had videos on there but you can’t say too much on YouTube because you don’t want to give it all way for free and then if you do or don’t people get mad and they put in the comments so I kind of got away from YouTube and I just made my own members site which is Bradley Hugh golfen members.com and there are way more in-depth videos that I talk about everything cu the people are paying for the information so I would start there if people want to get involved in it it’s pretty pretty cheap to what it what it’s got there’s over 600 videos on it so
