He Got The MOST FORGIVING Golf Clubs Of 2025 – DO THEY WORK?

Can NEW FITTED Golf Clubs Help A BAD GOLFER On An IMPOSSIBLE COURSE?

These are always the best starts to videos cuz Brett doesn’t like having a lead. How’s that stayed there? Wow. Oh no. [Applause] Such a shame. [Music] I can’t believe that didn’t go in. Oh, this could be the hardest nine holes of golf in the world. And today I take it on not just with myself as a PGA professional. We also take it on with an average handicap golfer. However, there’s nothing average about this man. Brett, how are you? I’m all right. Are you? I’m all right, thank you. Absolutely buzzing to be about. So, this is the Bad Little Nine. We’re here at Scottsdale National PXG and this golf course is potentially the hardest nine holes of golf you’ll ever play. Some of the pin positions today as well I’ve just seen are massively tricked up. This looks like it’s going to be quite hard. Yeah, we’re not uh we’re not expecting big things here. No. Um how many shots would you like, Brett? You’ve got a new handicap of six. Yeah. Um it’s looking like Brett’s becoming a bit of a bit of a golfer actually. So I’m quite pleased with the nasty the progression you’ve made. But this could be a bit of a a test, uh, a reality test. Let’s go three then. Three shots. And we’ll we’ll just There’s no stroke index, so we’ll just call it I’ll call it on the tea when we’re check. So, the first hole is basically 100 yards. And if you hit it 101 yards, you’re screwed. If you hit it 99 yards, you’re equally screwed. Yeah. Right. Um, I’ll let you have the honor. Are you sure? Yeah. I need a ball. Have you got me a ball? Uh, yes. There’s one in the boogie. Oh, so you’ve not got me a ball. Um, it’s also 100° today, quite literally. So, it’s very warm. It is very warm. Nice shots, mate. Let Thank you. Yes. I was treated at uh yesterday to these. Are you having a shot here? No shot here. What club have you got? I’ve got 54. Anything long. All right. Looks like we’re in that bunker, doesn’t it? It’s not his best strike. He needs to get over that bunker. Oh, it’s over the bunker. I’m not entirely sure what is over the bunker. No, I’m not sure either. Right. Okay. So guys, you may have seen a lot of videos holding the bad little man. I know Pete’s been here. I know Andy the average golf has been here, but get in the comments below. What do you think we could potentially score around here? Albe it with some quite difficult flag locations. We came out and played last night, didn’t we? And yeah, we’re a bit taken a back as to how difficult some of the the pin positions were. I’ve done the same. Oh, no. Oh. Oh. Oh, it’s hopped into the bunker. Do you think? I don’t know if I think it’s I don’t know if they’re both safe on the green, you know. Do you think? Okay. Yeah. All right. Right. We’ll find out. We’ll find out. So, Brett, as a a handicapped golfer, what are your thoughts on Scottsdale National as a place? because I’m well aware how lucky I am to get to travel to places like this and stay at places like this and play these courses. But for you, what are you thinking? I think it’s actually the best place golf-wise I’ve ever seen or stayed. It is very unreal. Every little inch, every little inch it’s thought about. The two main challenges are the temperature and the time difference for us personally. But where are we? I think we’re bunkered. Yeah. Yeah, we’re both This isn’t a good start. So, last night we both stiff this. So, oh yeah, be a great video of this. Um, but it does show how accurate you do have to be. This could get disastrous. Gross score-wise, I don’t think we should worry too much. I think it’s the match play. Yeah, I think it’s a match play outcome into it. I’ll get that. Okay, mate. You’re right. Don’t you don’t work too hard. 58. 58. Um, huge ridge to go over. This is not very easy at all. It’s not very easy. This could quite easily be back where we started. Well, I tell you what though. Slow down. That is a fantastic shot. Where did that come from? Stop. They’ve just ironed the greens as well. Great shot. Thank you. No rakes on this course either, so before people tell us off. Uhoh. How have you played a better bunker show than me? Thank you, Nico. I think when you were stood watching me take mine, this is how you envisioned my my old I thought yours would be a lot worse than this to be honest. That’s a better one. Sit. I think that’s enough for a half. Yeah. That goes in and you two put means a lot. This bat attack. One down. Well, sports fans, only one down. Look at that smirk. Only one down. You know when you do that smirk that I know you’re angry. We talk about last night when you were two up and three to play and lost. I know you’re angry. Not angry at all. These are always the best starts to videos cuz Brett doesn’t like having a lead. Does not like it at all. Right, second hole. We both thought we played good shots here last time. 130 yards this one. Again, you have to be absolutely bang on the number. Yeah. Yeah. On it. What are you going with? 50. 50. You taking a shot? No. No. No. No shot. I’m g try and play a little bit strategic. I’ve got in mind where I feel like I need him. Back back bunker. I tell you what, if that’s the distance, it’s perfect. Oh, how’s that stayed there? Wow. A yard right now. I think that’s really good. Be good. Be good. Oh, get up. Oh, nice wedge all day, is it? Yeah, it’s a wedge. Yeah. I bet I’m in the bunker there as well. And I bet yours has just flung on. Such a shame. I think I had a bit more legs than you in mine. It’s funny because it’s true. You’ll be putting, no doubt, will you? Oh, yes, definitely. Oh, where mine’s finished. It’s so penal. It’s fantastic, isn’t it? There’s just no margin for error, which No, but at the same time, it’s just so enjoyable because it’s so hard. Can we just have a word about that? I don’t know how I’m going to play it. I’ll swap you. No, I think I’ll stick with mine right in the back bunker and then try and hold it out the back bunker. Is that what you think you’ve got? I think is it what I can do? I think I I don’t think you’re going to hold it, are you? Or you could go front bunker. Yeah. And then hold it from there. Then back and then in. It’s a great shot. might just stay out. You’re joking. Oh, that’s a tough one to take. It stayed out though. Buzzing. That’s a tough one to take. I thought that was good. I did actually when he flicked it out. What do you want? Just putter, please. Thank you. Just get in there. Well, you think you’re going to get in there? No. Go and tell me then. I’m simply Would you play that way? Tell you afterwards. No. Go and tell me. I’ll tell you afterwards. Don’t be like that. Have a look. This is why this is so such a good golf course cuz it’s like that’s anchoring, mate. Oh, yeah. I can’t left rest it there, can I? [Laughter] That’s in the bunker. Got to be. Stop. Stop. Stop. Go on. Stop. Stop. Stop. Stop. No. Good. Almost impossible. Yeah. There weren’t much more we could do. No. Right. Come on then. Famous we thought we were out here as a team this week. Obviously not. Not anymore. Not anymore. Not bad effort. It’s a lovely roll. Yeah, not a bad effort. How many is that? That is in for is it five? Five that given. Uh, one. Yeah, five. Thank you. So, I’ve got two for the win. Sounds easy, but not here. Half me thought I might come back to your feet at one point. Did you? Yeah. Right to go two up through two. Two for the half, I’d say. Here. I’ve not left myself a nice easy one. There ain’t many. Well, there ain’t easy puts, is there? But I could have done away with this. Been a little tap in. Yeah. Oh, you hate to see that off the blade. You hate to see that. Pick it up for the half. Still one. That is a turn up for the book. Do you want to show how I would have played that shot? Go on then with a wedge. With a wedge and I’d have done It’s a funny one actually because you It’s that quick down there. People probably don’t understand how quick it is, but where was it clinging on? Was it here? Yeah. Just clinging on that bit. Yeah. Like there. Yeah. So, you just literally try and you like get the strike. Yeah. And just nip it. Cuz at least there you’ve still got the As soon as it went past the hole, you were absolutely done for, weren’t you? Cheeky up and down that. Okay. Okay, so this third hole is very interesting because usually you’d te off from up here and you’d see the flag there, but wait till you see the party trick on this. So 120 yards as you can see here. Give you that. It’s your honor. Still my honor. Yeah. And if you just move over this way a touch, you can see that red flag just through that gap. So this just has to be perfect. It’s such a good pin position. When we had a look last night, we said how much that’s thought about that you can just see the flag over that rock. Right. Come on then. Oh, how good is that? It’s just cut off. Yeah, it’s fading. Yeah, it’s on though. You think? I think so. Yeah. Do what I think. Well, the wind I’m not sure if that’s short. No, I think it’s on. bailed it. See, but I think you’re in trouble, dear. Oh, that is that’s bounced off rock. We’ll see. Oh, yeah. We have no idea. We’ve actually got no idea. Well, we can see one in the bunker. We’re both playing the same number ball yet again. We have to change that, aren’t we? I’m thinking that’s me in the bunker. I feel like it is. What a hole this is. See the size of the green. Unreal. Unreal. Yeah, there’s one in the bunker and there’s one here. Yeah, you’re bunkered cuz you were further right. It’s a big scuff on that one, but I’ll take the bunker one. My ball did have a scuff on it already. Did it? Yeah. You think I’m lying there, but Yeah, I do. I’m not. Go on. Take it. You’re not chipping that. No, I’m putting that. Thank you. Got to get it down in two. Got tea. Oh, sorry. You want tea? If you’re offering that looks really good. Yeah, you can stick a mark on that. Look at you looking at me like like a dog looking at his owner. Yeah. Please. Do you need it marking? No. No. well in. Great put. That’s a big one now, isn’t it? It is. That’s definitely mine as well cuz look at it. Yeah. Well, he’s not smiling as much now. I uh I must admit I didn’t expect you all in that one, didn’t you? No. Expect the unexpected, mate. Yeah, I don’t know. I just I fancied you missing that. I know where we stand. We uh gimmies now, though, so that’s all right. Okay. Oh dear. Is that back to level? Back to level. That’s so crap. [Laughter] We’re smiling still. He’s not facetiming his family just yet. We’ve still got three shots in the bank. Okay, so next hole is a huge sloping green flag right at the back. See off from back up yonder that way. 58 I think it is. We need as much height as possible. Yeah, I’ve got 58 for us. Your honor this time. Thanks, mate. That in the world of football is called a six-pointer. Yeah, big swing. That big swing. I thought I were going two up then. I could tell you did. Yeah. You know what thinking does, especially to my head, right? You played this well last night. Yeah. It’s just left of it short, isn’t it? Left and short. There is a bunker tight left of the flag, isn’t there? Could be perfect. It looked like it was skipping a little bit, didn’t it? Yeah, I think it h it’s landed short. I think it has to land on with lots of spin, but we’ll see when we get down there. I didn’t play this one very well. Taking a shot or Yes, I’m going to take a shot. Yeah, I’m going to use one of the three. I’m hoping that’s good cuz it did strike it really well. These PHG wedges do generate quite a lot of spin as well, especially out here in the the lovely conditions we have. Oh, that’s perfect. Sit. I think that’s got to be perfect. I think it’s bunker. I don’t know. I think it’s bunker. We’ll not talk about what happens in that bunker, but bunker. Yeah. Can we mention it? We can. So, he bladed it out into the flag and then it went up the green and then rolled in. We can mention it all you want. Right. This is where we’ll see where they are when we get to the top of here. There’s one at the back. I think that’s you. And there’s one. No, I’m 3 ft away. I think that’s me. We’ve not changed ball numbers again. That’s exactly where I was earlier. last night even. We’re just going to have to tell by the battle damage on the ball, aren’t we? That’s the only thing we’ve got. We’re going to get a shot. We haven’t got a dozen balls with all different numbers on. Yeah. Um, what you doing with a putter? Yeah, it’s all right. Fair. Like being with Gary Martin. This is 100% you. Is it scuff on the PXG logo? Yes. Damn it. Mine’s had a look. Damn it. Cuz mine’s got the other scuff on it. Mine’s got all that stuff there. Look. Yeah. Yeah. Long as we’re happy with that. Damn. Why you going up the slope? I think you’ve got to play up the slope. Well, you haven’t got to, but I think it’s a it’s a very romantic way of doing it. Should we have a go? I think you’re talking me into something. I don’t need to do it. We’re shot. I’m not doing that. No. Come on. You hold it last time. Which side’s it got to go up though? Left. Literally just up the middle. What? Straight past flag. Yeah. How far? As far as you want. If you want the pace on the way down, then plenty far. Oh, [ __ ] You have all that nearly. That’ll do. That’ll work. I’ve just got tap. That’s a gim. Give me it. You’re spee speechless, aren’t you? Thought it had gone in. This all loves me, doesn’t it? It does love me. That might be the luckiest break I think I’ve ever seen. That’s a net two. Yours comes back now, doesn’t it? Well, yeah, but it doesn’t m It’s for Oh, no. It’s for a two, is it? Yeah. Yeah. Bring it back. Sorry. Yeah, that’s You know what? It’s my fault for not marking it. It is. Should have marked it. Lazy golf. Take owner owner ownership, don’t we? Yeah. It’s big putt now. This got another scuff on it now. Urethine on urethane. Do I move it back? Yeah. Even though we were Yeah. Yeah. Oh, flag out as well. And a look from the Oh, it means a lot. This the big money on the line. Just getting a good camera angle on me backside. Yeah. Oh, boy. I got to tell you that that that sounds awful. Lucky. A little bit of luck again for me on this hole. Yeah, something like that again. That’s not far enough. Or is it? See, I think it was the It’s the romantic shot. It works. Further away than where it finished, though. Yeah. Okay. Fifth hole. One down. Yeah. Two shots left. I’m not playing a shot here. No shot here. Okay. And this looks like something out of The Hobbit. The We’re in the SH. Incredibly difficult shot. Playing about 90. I think you’ve got to hold this as tight right as you can. Not like that. That’s short. Short, but not a terrible position. No, it’s not end. And you can’t put the next one. So, that’s going to be interesting for you. And we have now changed ball numbers. You got number two now, haven’t you? Got a number two. Yeah, it we’re ready for changing after all rocks. Is it come back? Oh, I’m lucky. I still think that’s not a bad position. It’s not bad. It’s not great. If that’s like just left, it comes back and probably gets close, but incredibly like the pimp there is brilliant, isn’t it? Yeah, it’s awesome. Awesome. This is not ideal. Um, no. Although mine’s far from ideal as well. I might even have a back swing myself. So, I’m going try and channel a little bit of what Nico taught me. Y the C7 forward. So, get it back. Do it. That’s a great shot. I’m so impressed with that though. I am really impressed. I’m I’m actually all banter aside, I’m very pleased for you. I wish it would have gone in cuz that’s like how much better it is. Yeah. Is that a given? No. It’s near impossible. This to be fair. Great shot. Let’s get put on we that how unfriendly it’s becoming. What do you want to go? Good. Good. That’s how we’re going to offer. Offer it then. Good. Good. Yeah. Use your words. Brilliant. Well done. Two threes. Right. 105. This next one. What are you thinking? You seem just like a gap wedge. It’s into the wind a bit. Taking a shot. I’ve got two left, aren’t I? Yes. No, I’m not. The funny thing is on some of the holes a shot makes no difference because you can win it by three or four, can’t you? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. What I’m hoping for That was really good. It’s long. Sit. No, it’s good. Oh, just It’s going to be okay. It’s that back fringe, isn’t it? It’s probably putting It is putting Saying that with your new chipping technique, you might want to chip it. Well, I just think wedges in general are a little bit better. A little bit better. I’m actually feeling like I’m uh attacking them. Yeah. [Music] Oh [Music] no. Tell me it’s a restock, bro. Oh, not that close. It’s come down slope a little bit, I think. I can’t believe that didn’t go in. Oh, [Music] wow. I said I felt one this morning. We’re getting closer. Such a good shot that it had every chance in. I think it’s enough to win the hole. Oh, can’t believe that. It’s about eight feet away now as well. Yeah, it did come back down. It definitely It just landed long and spun back, didn’t it? It was so good. It’s best shot I’ve seen it all week. That is it? Yeah. You realize that I’ve played six holes with you all week. That’s what I’m saying. It’s all been about you. It Yeah, it’s about me. Right. I’ve got to make three to make a chance. Not chipping it. No. What a great putt. Just need a little bit more. It did. Take your time on this next one. Where’s it pitched then? That it’s pitched here. Was it there? Yeah. And then gone that way. Yeah. Oh. Yeah. Well done. It’s a good three. Very good. Thank you. Right. Big put in the match. This I don’t. It’s a big put in the match. This is it. I think it is. Not really. No. Still comfortable. I know what holes are coming up and what you’ve got in you. Right. Okay. Yeah. Good two. It deserved a two. Huge point in the match. Not a big put. Huge putt. Huge. Oh, it’s changed now. Yeah. Now he’s hold it. Talk after talk after the hole’s done. I think you do. All right. Right. Okay. The match is back to level. Three holes left to play. This is one of the harder ones. This is 160 yards and it’s a back left flag. About Is it going to be an eight time for you? This nine. Nine. Nine. It’s now your honor. A little rental set with some Gen 7s in. You’ve got your fitted lovely clubs into the wind. this as well, you know. Yeah. Well, good shot. It’s all square. That leaves me one shot left, doesn’t it? Yeah. With two holes to play. Yeah. Don’t know if I’ve got enough club here. But what you got? Nine. I think you’re right. Into the wind. Yeah. It’s a great shot. Be the number that is next to it. What a shot. What a shot that was. He’s turned up. Pressure’s on this one now, isn’t it? I’ve got a shot. I’m not putting too much pressure on myself. It’s an ambush. Need to find the green. Just Yeah. Nothing left, nothing right, nothing short, nothing long. No, just middle at green. Oh dear. That’s right of it. Unless it gets looking gets all the way up. No. No. That’s not where you want to be, mate. Nope. That might be shot wasted. Might be shot wasted. It might be an unplayable lie cuz we know that little ditch is down there, don’t we? Yeah. Lovely rental set this actually. Nice and forgiving, but still workable and not like stupid distances. They’ve done you proud, aren’t they? All feet are up now. Wow. That’s nearly two ones in a row, by the way. Just so Yeah, true. Yeah, you That’s insane. That is that a snake on I thought a snake on. Oh, I’m all right there. Last words. Channel me in an eco again. Tell you what, Brett is a snake. Where’s that one pitched? Just pitched nicely. That I thought that might have been, you know, that a little bit further down. Yeah. You were flag eye. Uh you’re shot in here, aren’t you? Yeah. Y had a stroke of look again there. It’s not I vis I can’t even say that word today. That’s not how I visualized it. Not really. Me and knife into the bank. You didn’t visualize that at all. No. A stroke of luck. Putting lottery tickets on on the way way home. Staying alive. We’re staying alive. Three this. Not a bad way of playing this hole actually that shank it to the right. blade it into the bank and then roll the put in for three net two cuz we figured out if you go in there you’re absolutely dead. Yeah. You don’t want to be in that. No. It’s a great put. Four for three. 483. Yeah. This now this is big. This is to go one up in it. Yeah. It’s huge. This one up, two to play with your shot. And I’ve got one shot left to play with. Well, well, good. Two two fantastic holes on the bounce there, sir. I’ll give you that. All competitive side to one side. The big question now is where does Brett take his shots? Because if he takes it on the next and messes it up, the final hole is almost impossible. I don’t think we’ve hit the green once, have we? What are we now? Are you one of them? I’m one with two to play. Yeah, but you have a shot. I hit the green earlier on the last. Yesterday? Yeah, yesterday. On your third go. Second. What a good looking hole this is. It’s my favorite one. Can I get there with a 54? Yeah. No, you’re saying that it goes in the bunker. Not bad. You went long earlier. [Music] Oh, no. It’s the right club, but that’s that’s come right back down to the bottom. Yeah. All the way down there. We just walked in front of us, but never mind. I was going to show you. No problem. I think this is going to come down to the Well, saying that. Yeah. Don’t say that. Anything could happen. Anything can happen. We’ve not had a shank yet this week, have we? All right, then. I think it’s at it for me. And I think it stalls in that wind. Well, mine Yeah, if I start it right of it, it would have been really good. That’s too far off. But I think that’s your that’s your miss. Stop up. I still think you’d rather have that shot than what I got. Yeah, I think the number were good. Right. This is Oh, yours is all right. Put I’m putting there. That is your miss. If the flag’s there, that’s what you do not want to miss it where I’ve gone. Realistically, come on. If you can just get this, then it’s not a shorter match, is it? You can go to the last. He’s just had a one to one in the car with me. This is hard for distance, is it? Cuz if you go like an inch long. Yeah, I’m down with you. See you. That’s a great put. That’ll do. Yeah, it’s exactly where you need to leave that. As long as it stops. Yeah. Yeah. I’d be worried for the next one. Yeah. Imagine if this goes in there. I literally don’t know if I can if I have the minerals to get the perfect distance on this. Anything inside yours is a probably a good one, isn’t it? End of day, I’m there for one with the shot I’ve taken. So, at the end of the day, where did mine? So, it’s pitched there. Mine. Look. Yeah. It’s pitch perfect distance, but it had to be further back. It’s a great putt. Yeah, good putt. I’m not going to lie, that was pure guess work. Yeah. Yeah. I think it would just pace, weren’t it? Get it up there. Even guess work with pace though. Really? Yeah. Just hit it. You don’t want to leave it short, do you? No. Here’s one. It’s like a hog’s back, isn’t it? Yeah, it’s it’s difficult. I would say it’s probably the hardest pin position out of them all we’ve played. Yeah, there’s some I’ve played this one. It’s a lot easier pin positions. This really does make it difficult where it’s been today. This is big. This to get to level going into the final hole. which is an impossible hole. Oh, it’s firm. Oh. Oh, go. Oh, honestly, I thought I had that. Did you? I thought it was going to go down the bottom. One thing I got to say is the greens are perfect condition, aren’t they? Yeah, they’re insane. I don’t think Well, I’ve definitely not played on anything as pure as this. pulled it. Ah, knew straight away. Four. Four. Got another shot to tip. It was a flat pull this to go back to level. The door’s a jar. Yeah, well done. So, there’s no one else out here. Makes part three course. [Laughter] Not going to lie, if you’d have offered me this stood on the second green, I would have took it. But I did think I had you wrapped up there. Fancy that part. Just flat pulled it. Right. Look at this for a shot. Right. I’ve got to put pressure on. If you hit the green, I think you win because if if you miss the green here, it basically makes a fool of you and you’re like twoing and throwing left, right, forward, and back, aren’t you? Yeah. That’s got to be long. Gone 130 yards. Sit. Yeah, it’s long. Bite. Bite. Sit. Sit. The wind’s up there, though, so I do see what you’ve had in mind. You thinned it a bit, didn’t you? Yeah. I’m just hoping it’s caught that little bit of grass in between them two bunkers. Yeah, it didn’t bounce. No, [Music] I were holding my breath then thinking that’s another chance at going. Yeah, I was. Yeah. Oh, right. Yeah. All to play for. Wow. Scott Stallings into the wind. Wow. This all comes down to how they’re both lying. Yeah, definitely. Mine’s got a chance that it’s caught. Yeah. There’s a little bit of hope and grass the other side, isn’t there? Yeah. Um if it’s caught that, I’ve got probably bit better chance than you. Uh I don’t know. Mine’s rolled into the bunker, hasn’t it? So hope just to splash up and out. It looks plugged to me. No, that’s the practice one I’ve just hit. Oh, there looks short. Yeah, you’re right. I thought that was good in there. I’m not going to lie. I think we definitely go around here again before we go home. I think. And this is the thing. This is what these golf courses are all about. How much fun have you had? Probably the most fun ever on a golf course. You’ve not touched anything more than an eight iron. Nope. Oh no. Oh. Oh. I thought it might catch that. You know, you said it, didn’t you? Yeah. It’s about knowing where to miss, I suppose. Yeah. Sit. You’re in the bunker. Ah, it was very close to being good. Yeah, I didn’t want it. It’s stupid going for that flag. Just play it there. Yeah, you should just play it out front just to get yourself a put. Oh, that’s impossible. I’ve given this match away. It’s such a good hole. It’s like impos not impossible, but it’s very very tough to get what you need to get. Yeah. Great put. Great put. Come on. Got to go in then. Yeah. Need a Robinson welder. No, no. Bunker. Tiffany. You need to hit the green. Well done. Oh, well done. Thank you very much. Well, now what that’s been rematch coming next week.
