Welcome back to the lads. We’re back with another episode of the course record series here at the barn. Last time we had good good on the channel and Garrett Clark had a solid day setting the amateur course record at two under. Today someone’s coming for that record. The dual athlete himself, Evan Thompson. Bruce is on the bag for Evan while Bat Ruff and I are jumping in to see if we can take down my pro record of 600. Let’s get into it. But first, we’re throwing a few questions at our lad, Evan. Let’s go. What’s your name? Evan Thompson. Handicap. Plus four or 3.8, I think, right now. Okay. Plus four. And what do you think you’re going to shoot at here today? Nine holes, right? Nine holes. I think I’ll go three under. Bruce on the back. And what’s your hand, right? What? What’s your handshake? That’s what it is. Clippy. Oh, Clippy. Woo. Yeah, it’s been a it’s been a pretty rough uh start to the uh lad’s trip. Um we had a canceled flight and then we tried to book a car. There was no cars available. Then we tried to uh book another flight for the next day. There was no flights available. Then at the last minute, God opened a uh ticket and then we uh were here. Leg absolute legend. The guy’s zero sleep just off a plane and he’s coming to shoot a course record. He deserves stepped on your ball. So now you Sounds like a lot of complain. Yeah, it’s on me. That’s I saw that. I got a 60°. I think uh we’re going to go right at this one, huh? Yeah, you can split the cameraman and the 50 flag. Absolutely, Mike. Get up. Get up, A. Get up. Stay there. Stay right there. That should stay there. Should it? That’s okay. You know what? That’s not bad. So far, best shot so far. Best shot so far. Best shot so far. Missing the green from 50 is kind of tough though, bro. This is a hard shot. So there’s a whole I’m just going to land it on top of the bank, one bounce it down there. Well, one bounce and then just trickle it down there. So that’s that’s the goal. Sit. Oh, down. That’s okay. So I’m basically the same as a That’s okay. Uh what do we say? 53. Yeah, 53. Bruce don’t have on the team anymore. On your team running [Music] to skip left down as well. Wait, what? Oh boy. There’s a ridge. How far is it? You got to land on top. If mine landed probably 2 yard short left and I think it would have been perfect. Yeah, you weren’t that far off. Walk up there. You’ll see how hard this hole is. All right. No one’s on the green, which is good from 50. that look. Oh my opportunity. Come on, bat. You want to make a bet? Yes. Yeah. For some push-ups. Yeah. Push-ups. 100 push-ups. Whoever loses between us, go cold punch. Okay. Done. No, that’s too easy. Yeah, that’s nestle. Oh, smoked it. Oh no. We have the closest I think we have the closest. Oh my holy gi. I see left of finishing it on those sprinklers just left of it. Mhm. So we’re pin high. It goes a little right. Yeah. Just tad bit. Yeah. Best shot of it. Nestle. Oh no. Not bad. No, that’s fine. That’s fine. They’re pretty quick, huh? Pretty quick. They’re soft but quick. Perfect. Perfect for us. We all miss the green which is no good from 53 yards. Kind of hard shot for you. It is hard. You also You are further away than me, bro. Yeah, but it’s all right. We both I hit a terrible shot. Rough hit the all time best shot of his life. You said it. Oh, no. No, that’s fine. That’s fine. All right. That’s all right. That’s all right. So, I’ve just got about a four and a half, five footer there. Not too bad. Right to left down the hill. Do you know Evan though? Have you seen him uh putt at all? Uh I’ve seen him putt a little bit, but I don’t know him. I don’t know him too well. And he’s a little shaky. He’s a little shaky. Cameraman, look at him. He’s smiling over there. He’s got his hand over his face. Well, you know what the good thing is is what we like about this course record series. I can actually uh help the person out after the course record series is done. So, we’ll see how it goes. Kind of a straightaway chip here. This is actually holable. What are you laughing at, Jason? I’m not laughing at anything. You be chipping great. You just laughed at me. I told you it good start, boys. High quality golf. That’s our motto. Opportunity for pass. Couple of shots there. Not as close as we like them to, but um I got a 60. Going to bank it into that hill. So, one bounce up. Hopefully check a little bit. Roll in the hole. That That would be the plan right now. So, oh shot, J. That was nice. Just needed a little bit of roll out. So nice. That’s the one thing I wish I could do in life. Thank you, man. Thank you, Ralph. Good luck. I’m getting ripped early by Jason. Not sure why. [Music] Not bad, Rob. Not bad. Snapping. That’s pretty good. Everyone’s wearing like quite tame bits and I’m just I just look like an orange out here. The tie dye himself. We’ll send you up in there and like all black, all black, all black, black and brown. Very citrus, aren’t we? And I’m just like, oh yeah, very citrus. Pace part, but go a little long and softer green. So drip it in the front. Get in. Get in. Go. That’s four. Nice. He put that four and he put you get the nerves out. I think it was a Hey Jason, if you see anything in the game that you want to uh possibly help on, just take Sure. I’m going to let it h I’m going to let it I’m going to let this round go and then after I’m going to uh try and see what we can improve. All right, here we go. Par putt. First hole. Can’t complain. Yep. Yeah. Good three. Thank you, sir. This was the uh the old USAM trusty putter, so I had to go back. Shout out uh shout out the uh the barn the barn shop in there. Oh, Nike putter throwback. Dude, that is phenomenal. That’s a throwback. That’s a throwback. Yeah. Sheesh. Look at that thing. Wow. Classic. I like another I use another couple weeks. One up. Boo. Right away on that bike. All right, lads. If you’ve seen us wearing the hats in a few of our videos now, go check them out. We’ll leave the link in the description. Uh, made by Imperial. Awesome hats. I’m wearing the L 3D logo. Uh, Bat has got the bucket hat on with the 3D printing. We’ve got tour visors, dad caps, and all that sort of stuff, too. Go get yourself one. Support the lads. Go support Jason on tour and wear one. Okay. If you hit there’s a ridge in this green splits it probably, you see where that um most pronounced like trunk is to the left. Yes. If you’re left of that I had a practice round this morning. Um, the putt will not stop. Yeah, you might you might whack. Well, I I saw Brad use the slope and almost hold it on your video. Yeah. So, you can use the slope, but his pin was further right. Okay. So, if you hit it left, the putt won’t You want to be You want to be from the pin to the right edge of the green. That’s perfect. Uphill. Um, all right. Yeah, you’re up. Oh my gosh. I guess. Am I going first the whole time? You You had the honor and then you made par, so we’ll keep the honor going. How about you go first? Maybe. Got the guinea pig going. Yeah, that’s right. That’s right. So, 31 even. Three evens and a one over. Yeah. Plus one. You better not take a divot. No. You’re golden, mate. You’re golden. Whose li is this? Probably. But anyway, talking to All right, I got 56 here. Um, clubs didn’t make it to uh I’m going to say Cleveland. Holy cow. Columbus. So 56. Who knows where this goes? Oh boy. Go. Go, go, go, go. It did. That’s all right. That’s all right. That was a really good pitch. So, I got 52. I’m going to hit a little 10:00 pane. Half pane. Actually, probably pan because we want to make sure we take some spin off this because it did rain today. It was firm this morning. We got a lot of rain. A little soft and spinny this afternoon. So, little 10:00 52. Oh, nice Jason. That could be that could be in turn right too much. No, it’s pretty good though. Shot there. I was not trying to hit it that far, but I’ll take that. You ready to do 100 push-ups? Oh my god. You’re going to fill You’re going to fill out that jersey. I feel like you do 100 push-ups on a Tuesday evening after eating a horse for dinner. Like it’s just your When do you do that? It’s just like your standard. I guess if I do 100 push-ups, I might die. Oh, so I got to play good. Come on. I got 56. Jay hit a good shot. Very similar to that. That’s completely my fault. We’re just adding to it. Oh no. Oh, get long and left, please. Spin off the green in the rough. Oh no, that’s fine. God dog it. It’s freaking What was that? 56. That’s going in the other hole. Ready? What’s this? Oh, I nearly did. All right, I got 52. I really just need to find some club face here. Get some confidence back. Jason, stop laughing. Not the bottom middle. He’s teed it up. He’s good to go. Oh yeah, that’s perfect. Is that fading? [Laughter] Oh no, it’s off the green. No, that’s fine. That’s fine. That’s pin high. I feel good. That’s good if you like missing grains. At some point in this video, I’m going to tell Jason that he was one of the ones that got me into golf. Oh, no. When do you think I should When do you think I should tell him? Um, when we’re two up. When we’re two up with three to play. Okay. Yeah. I’m going to be honest. I was pretty nervous. So, like I feel like whenever I calm down, I’ll tell him, you know? Yeah. Two up with three to play. You can tell him that he’s the reason you’re beating him. a little. This is probably one of the hardest shots on the course, but get the nerves out early here. This is going to be fun. Yeah, I like that right there. 20 yard pitch shot over this bunker. Amateur’s worst nightmare. Wish me luck. Oh, Evan shot, mate. Thank you. Nice, mate. That was the high chunked wedge right there. That was worth a divot. Little do they know I chunked the heck at I got a tough part. I hit a little like a pull hook wedge. Um I’ve got to just feed it to the top of the tier and then Oh, I got a voice break on camera. Oh no. Leave it in, Talon. Let them know. Uh get it top of the tier, let it fall, and then deal with whatever’s next. Oh [ __ ] that’s so long. Nice leg. Not bad. Not bad. Not bad. No, it wasn’t. That’s okay. Wasn’t what I was envisioning. Opportunity for a birdie to get back to level. Put some heat on Evan. Go. Oh, he’s got it. Go. I wanted that for you though. Thank you, sir. I appreciate it. You about to pull a hammy? I was about to do the Yeah, one about uh 9 ft up the hill right to left. Give enough speed up there. Stay aggressive. Little slow green right now. So, give it enough up there. [Music] Nice putt, Jay. Thank you. One under. You going to beat your own record today or? No, I don’t want to beat that guy. All right, here we go. This would be a big par. Uh, just outside right. That was a really That was That was a rude rude put. I hate I hated to see that, Evan. Hey, you know what I found out is like because I lipped out on that one, I’m going to lip in on the next hole. for one. For one, yeah, positivity. Yeah, I’m pumped. Smash it through the brake now. That’s a hell of a spinning a lot. I’ve got 56. I feel like it’s going to spin a lot. So, I’m going to go I’m going to 8:00. Yeah, I’m going to go 52. Sorry. 52 from 100 yards. So, we’re looking for a little one bounce stop here. It’s like a fun little format. Don’t have the tea, so I’ll just scrub that out. Oh my god. Go. That’s pretty good. A great lead actually. That’s right. Kind of where you want to leave it. It’s a great just a little bit more. if there was like an amateur that wants to hit that like penetrating flight, like a little bit softer of a 52, like what’s like the biggest tip for that? Bro, I’m a pro and I’m still trying to figure it out. So, um I’ll I’ll show real quick what I what I mean by 8:00. So, if I’m going here, so the feel versus real is a little bit different, but we have this is 8:00, 9:00, 10:00. Now, that for me, it might be a little bit more than all that, but what we want to do is we want to make sure that we’re far enough left. 8:00, we’re driving it down. We want to take a lot of the spin off through the trajectory of the flight. Um, it is soft out here. That’s why I’m hitting an 8:00. I hit my 52 about 100 130 yards. So, 120 is 10:00. Uh, 110 is 9:00. And obviously 100 is an 8:00 shot. So, take a lot of the spin off through the trajectory of the shot. We’re looking pretty low. Um, somewhere between like know 50 ft or so, maybe less of of apex. Just drive that thing in there. 56, bro. Oh, yeah. Love it. I’m going to land it just a bit past that. Pin’s very front like Jay’s ball, I think, is 10 ft if not closer. Yeah. Nice. Oh, get in the long stuff. Carry the long stuff. Get in the long stuff. Oh, blessed is rough. Blessed be the name. Thy name rough. I have 56. I’m going to grip it down. Hey, bat. On this hole, you can’t talk like anybody else but me. The whole hole. And if you do, I get uh I’ I’ve got a I’ve got a 56 and I’m just trying to take some spin off. Am I from Tennessee? Like I got to talk like an American. Like I’m from Florida. So whatever. Oh no. We going to go around. We’re going to turn left. Oh. Okay. All right. Here we go. Come on. Come on. Oh, go right at J.R. Is it Z? Oh, that’s me. Go in. Go in. [Laughter] Actually worried about you. All I had to hit is to 10 ft and miss it. Make P. [Laughter] That is if you land this six money five six. All right, here we go. 60°. Try to do what? Lat just did. Bat latt. Whatever name lad plus the lad, baby. Lad. Lad. Bat. Oh, come on. Oh my god. Be good for us. Oh, this is so good. Oh, it’s going to be good. Yeah, that’s okay. Pretty nice. Yeah, that’s a spot. Sound like a dizzle. Let’s try to spin back up the slope. Hey, how Hey, how did you do that? You teach the porn. There it is. That’s mint. That was mint right there. All right. Few highlights there off the tea. Um, I’ve got very lucky not to be in this stuff. So, I just got a pretty chip. Just going to try and roll it out like a pot basically and try and hold it. Just a little bit left. Got putter in my hand. I thought I was a little bit closeer than this. I just didn’t obviously give it enough heat to get it up there, but um 18 20 21 ft looks like. Go Jason. All right. All right. You’re just making your run for your last seven holes. You left it late last time. I think he birdied maybe the last four to shoot it last time. I think they earned them up like that birdie part here. Got to put some heat on the boys. Get back to even there’s no reason for me to be overpowered. Come on. [Applause] That go had it. Oh, negatory. I don’t think I’ve ripped a 60 uh back that much in my lifetime. I got this for birdie. We’re going to play this about two cups out left here. Big part here. Evan and Bat seem to have a little side thing going on right here. So, um both are one over right now. Got big chance right now. See if we can roll and get there. Get there. Both and Evan left his short heart there. This is this is going to be interesting cuz both of these boys are plus four, bats are plus five. Actually, Evan’s plus four, bats plus five. So, they’re right around each other, you know, in regards to the handicap and skill level. So, what are you plus seven? So, but I mean these guys if Evan and B on their good day, they can they can still clip me cuz they they’re still good players. All right, I got a little test for par like four 5 footer boys in for par. This would be nice on the hole. [Music] Pulled it. Oh, hang on. Hang on, guys. Cameraman, where are you? Cameraman. Pulled it. Dang it. Uh, score update. One over, one over, one over, one under. Is that right? I don’t think it’ll ever recover. There’s a R in there, Brucey. Sharf. Sharf. We filmed the video. We filmed the video with Good 6 and 1/2 months ago, and that’s what it still looks like. 6 and 12 months ago. But the ball Where did the ball end up? Right there. The ball ended up right there in the bushes. Yeah. Wasn’t far. For some reason doesn’t want to grow in there cuz it’s coming up from the earth’s core. I think it’s disease. 53 93 56. I’ll go cuz I’m leading. Um I’m going to hit a 90. Uh yeah, I’ll hit a 9:00 uh 56. Drive it in there. I keep saying I’m going to drive it in there and then all of a sudden I keep spinning it back. So that last shot was pretty driven. Yeah, I’m going to drive this one in there just a little bit right of the pin. Try and get something turning and drawing on the on the green there. Sit there. Oh, you’re golden, aren’t you? No. Oh no. Is that the door is a jar? I did that last time and Bat said that probably the last time. The door is a jar. We have an opportunity, boys. This is a hot shot. This is a really hot shot. Oh, that’s that’s safe. Yeah, that’s safe. That could spin though. Oh, wait. How did it spin out of the rough? He took the spin off by hitting it into the rough to then slow it down. shot. You got to be really disciplined on this golf course. Like, you can’t go after that flag. You cannot cuz it’s left and gone. But no, Evan, Evan, you definitely You should go for it, though. Absolutely. Oh, it looks so good, right? It’s so silky. It’s so good. Great shot, Ryan. Unbelievable. Appreciate it. That’s close. Sit. Sit. Is that or That’s He’s still looking up. Oh. Oh, no. That’s That’s fine, mate. You hit a You hit a great shot then, didn’t you? There’s gate and out of Let’s blame Let’s blame it on Delta Airlines, bro. This This This wedge goes really far, though. I think if we get this on the green. Yeah, a green. Dude, look at that lie. Look at that lie. And I’m actually right here, which is getting the old Columbus. I’m uh going to play it like try to hit that slope right there. I don’t know how this is going to come out, but I’m try to play this slope and then try to get out here with a four. Probably be the best bet. We got a part at it. Yeah, you do. We got a part at it. Honestly, that I I’m I’m I’m pretty happy with that because I had no idea. I didn’t think I was going to get it over this bunker. What do you reckon that is? That’s 100 feet. 100 minimum 100 ft downhill. There’s like a a 60° quadruple breaker onto a peninsula. But if anyone’s going to help Ev, it’s going to be Brucey cuz he’s uh experienced caddy. You don’t like 60? I like 60. You gave me I’m not saying the boys didn’t come with all. All right. So, they little bit buried in there. Um, just got to be very firm with my wrists here. Just get something trundling out here. So, day known for having one of the best short games in golf. This is not a nice lie. It’s not an easy shot. If he goes a little bit long, it’s off the green. We’ll see how he goes. Oh my god, that is such a good shot. Jason, I’ll wear a lot of things. My cousin, that came out so much better. Shot, Jason. I was very pleased with that. I think towards the uh cart bike cuz it’s going to feed right. Yeah. And then go that way. You see that? Yeah. Yeah. All right. Here we go. Try to come out of here with the four and uh get away with a win from bat. That would be huge. Come on. Ev’s got a diabolical putt. This is actually I mean, what do you think? Long left, short left, off the green. I mean, it’s at least 100 ft. 90 to 100. The most. Wow. Need to ride it this way. That is That’s a pretty good. That’s a really good to give me a really good putt. Oh, look how good of a read he’s gonna get, dude. A great putt. Yeah. Solid, dude. Well done, dude. That is uh that’s momentum right there. It’s so crazy because that’s like 10 ft, but if it was anything farther left, it would be by the bikes. But he actually gave himself We might need four or five holes for our clubs to warm up and then we’ll go down in the last Yeah, it’s a lot of pace. All pace, baby. All pace. Okay, here we go. Need first birdie of the day. Thanks, Dashy. Dashy just gave me a read, so this should go in. Turn or bat. Turn or bat. Turn. Oh, honey. Had to read that. You don’t want it bad enough. You don’t want it bad enough. He doesn’t want it bad enough. That was lovely. Thank you, boys. Appreciate it. There, bro. Gave yourself a chance. Betrina. Your name is now Patrina. Sure. Just outside left. I think you got the sil this far out. All right. Yeah. All right. This would be huge, huge putt here. Just outside left to go down the hill. I did right at the end there. Oh no. Was that the first double? Was that the first double on the first? It was not. All right. I got about five, six feet here for birdie on a very similar line to Evan. Snapping left to right. It was weak. Oh, I got away with you mean it was weak. It was like dead in the high. I didn’t like it the moment I hit it, but Okay, it was It was weak, but Well, I guess if I hit it where I wanted to, it would have missed. There’s my good read. All right, four. Uh, one under. One under. Even. Let’s go. Plus, plus one, plus three. Hey, you got a two shot lead, bat. Don’t think about it, though. Don’t think about it. Oh, no. Now I’m picking. Oh, no. Now I’m picking. 49 playing 48. 49 playing 48. Guys, um Dashy’s uh he’s saying 56, which is good because it obviously goes up up to a bank. Um I’m going to go I will go 56. Dashy, give me some of that action, lad. Once again, today we need pan. Pane today. P today. We need some little low ones in there. Just get bouncing up the hill there. Yeah. Just needed to hit that like another yard, right? Yeah. Yard further or yard shorter. Jay’s hit a good one there. He’s probably got a 10 15 footer up the hill. I got to try and just skip it up as well. Oh, rough. Come on. Nice rough. Come on. Get there. Get there. Oh, blessed again. Bubblegum. Enough. He plays by luck. All right. Got a little 56 wedge. Little sandwich. Just trying to little skip skip. That might work. Hit the flag in. Oh, that’s what we mean by skip. Skip Z. 48 yards. Uh, this was my football number at Kennesaw State. So, if there’s one hole to do it, it’s this one. Oh, clippy. Oh, no bounce. Come on, baby. Great shot. It’s good luck. I tried to tried to the three different ball end points and they’re all three almost in the exact same spot cuz they’re all the 60, right? So I I hit 56. Hence why I’m the furthest way. That’s why I bounced on further forward. Um and these uh Yeah, these other boys. Yeah. Great shots. They use 60. All right. Uh right to left up the hill 15 ft. Got to just give it enough speed. Keep the speed up. Bring a bit of good brakes on the left. Yep. I think I think you should probably trust the former number one in the world. Well, now you’re doubting. I’m doubting myself here. I wasn’t I didn’t I thought I will take a three. I’m a little late. I need I’m one under. How many holes we got left? Four. We’re Yeah, that played five. Oh, boy. I got to You need a hole in one. And you can be done. You can be done. All right, here we go. I got birdie putt. This would be get us back on track here. Here we go. What a roll. I love that. Love that. Where I threw away. Well done, bro. Good. He’s right there, bro. A double bounce back. Just forget about it. Mind of a goldfish. That was big time. Oh. Oh, no. Other than the speed in the line, that was such a good kind of a weird putt. Like the ball was under me, but it was right to left. Started so far right. It was the hardest putt in the world cuz it was like left to Yeah, I totally agree. just done a little bit right of his line, but uh he’s good. Yeah, it’s a little double breaker, isn’t it? Just not even just the ball below you, but it’s a right to left putt. Yeah, like it does go right straight away. 30 putt got to go in to to tie with rough. Wow. Huge, isn’t it? Be one back of Jay and to I mean, this got to go in. Evan’s back to two over. I’m currently at one over with about a fivefooter. So, this has got to go in if I got to keep the heat on him because if I have to do 100 push-ups. Oh my god. Wow. So, hey, hold on. What’s your scores left? JD one under. I’m even. Bat’s even. Evan’s on the comeback and two over. Okay. 153. I have a 9 iron back left pin. House is left. Um, it’s getting pretty tight here at the top, so we got to try. You got to hit a really good shot into this back shelf. It’s a really small landing area, but it’s doable for sure. Hey, what’s that tattoo on your shoulder? This is It’s called the masi in Fiji. Really? So, it’s like uh patterns to where you come from in the different villages and in different islands. So, this is the kind of pattern of where my dad from. Yeah. That’s really cool. They didn’t wear clothes in their tribe. That’s true. Still don’t. Oh, bat. Oh, bat. Be good. Be in the Hoover Reservoir. [Laughter] That is it going to stay. Perfect. I’m very very I’m very happy with that. Thanks, man. Thank you. Yeah, this usually goes like 155, so I’m going to try to just 3/4 of it right here. Yeah. Not knowing the loft and lies on the Do you know what your lie angle is? Uh, it’s a flat. A little flat. Little flat. I mean, I don’t know what those are. Yeah, those are old. This might come out a little be one. Be a one. Hit the ball. Just go. No, that’s doable. You can get that. You can get that up and down. shaft is not fitted for me, brother. Um, I got pitching wedge and hitting it a bat’s ball. Just a little draw bats ball would be fantastic. High ball. That’s got to be rough. I missed it. Yeah, you fanned that. Oh, that is so good. It’s all about mis hits. Go down the hill. That’s a great shot. Good job, Ralph. Go down the hill. Well done. No, good shot, Ralph. You Thanks, bro. That’s a good If you didn’t hit that 100%, that’s a great shot. It’s a tight fade. Yeah, a tight fade. So, I got to hit 150ish shot. Yeah. No, I mis hit it. And that was a tight tight swing. Go hard, guys. We’ve got a window here. Ev might be in the first one. Got a window here. Yeah, I think we’re off to a rough start uh off the plane and rental clubs. But hey, no excuses. We want to try to play good for the boys, for the lads. Um and look, I I want to obviously have, you know, play my best, but when you’re not playing your best, always have a good attitude. I think that’s a great thing to learn in this situation, especially for me. I’m blessed and honored to be out here, and this is what I do for a living, so it’s crazy. So 60°. We’re trying to use that back stop just left of the hole. Um and feed it down there. Get out. Get out. Gave up on it a little bit. Yeah, it’s okay. One more yard. One more yard. I think it’s left to right and then it straightened it out. Right. Yeah, it’s definitely it’s uphill left to right. Let me look at it from it’ll straighten out. You going to look from the other side? Dash. He’s doing his best work today. Unfortunately, I’m not performing for for him. Um, yeah. Back up the hill, left to right. I got to give it enough speed, which has been good cuz I’ve been saying that a lot. Give it speed. Um, means I’m under the hole, which is good. You like that, dash? Yeah. Okay. Go, go, go. Good try. Good turn. Good play. I hit it too hard. Um, all right. I got a pretty big swinging left to right putt. 20-ish feet. Um, bat’s got a good look, too. So, if I want to win this, going to have to start making one of these. This would be big putt here to have a chance to do something today. Man, I’m leaving everything short. Brucey, you go have a little straight part. This is go to one under par. This would be huge. All right, Bubba. I made that. It’s a little like this. Yeah, I made it. Yeah, that knows this part. He knows it. Oh, I think I pulled it. You read it, right? Did you Did you pull it? Yeah, I think so. Oh, no. A man. Is that a good path? Oh, yeah. Nice. All right, Bruce. Just over the hill. Ruffles. It’s been an absolute disaster for him to get here today. So, fair play to him for even being here. He’s wearing my shoes, using Jason’s clubs. He is in all sorts. So, uh he’ll have to have another run when he’s got he’s prepared. So, I have a uh statement to make for the channel. Okay. Wow. Um, when I grew up, when I was 15 years old, I got into golf and there was a couple people that helped me get in the game and one of them was you. A So, I want to say appreciate you. Thanks, man. Appreciate it. And now you’re about to beat. Well, so my my when I started playing, like the people that I looked up to the most were you and Brooks. Awesome. That’s I just wanted to say that. Two two good dudes, man. I appreciate you coming uh shooting with us. This is a dream come true for me. So, I just thanks for that. Yeah, coming from football, it’s like it’s so it’s so hard to like grab my mind that this is what I do, you know? Okay. I have a 56. 56. 56. Going to take some spin off. Uh let’s see what happens. Come on, baby. Definitely took some spin off. This is in if I’ve ever seen a three. Three. That’s good, dude. That’s real good. Yeah. Beautiful, isn’t it? Yeah. Thank you, guys. Yeah. So, what do you got there? I got 60. 79. What do you got, J? Yeah, I got 60, but I’m thinking it’s 56 now. Just a pen. Weird. Our comments. Oh, nice raft. There’s going to be one here. There’s going to be a one. No, it’s too far. Too short. Spin back off the green. Come down the hill. Come on. Thank you. Cheers, boys. You know what? I’m going to hit 60. I’m going to just drive it. Yeah. Um, if I’m going to hit 60, I’m going to have to land this quite a significant distance pass. So, I’m just going to drive it up there and just bring it back down. O, I can hit right. And she has a Oh, that’s that’s got a chance in a good spot. She has a chance. No, it doesn’t. Please go in. Oh, no. Oh, if you would have gone there, I was going straight left. Straight into the lake. Just open the door for me. Would you know where that went? It’s like 5 ft short and left. Like right in front of me. I’ll take that. I’ll take that. All right. Here we go. You’re at Pebble Beach. Come on. [Applause] Get left. Sit. Left. Oh my gosh. This is going to spin so much. It is. Yes. Oh my gosh. Oh, just landed in the rough. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. It’s coming down. Oh, just landed in the rough. You’re the closest. Come on, baby. Yeah. Hey, that was more like 98. We had room. We had room. Let’s go. Come on. Good job, brother. Well done, man. Hey, I was just playing the course. I’ve been here um for about an hour. Figured it out. I’m like 12 ft in the furthest away. All right, we got players here. Uphill, right to left with a little bit of straightening at the end. Dashy’s coming in to give me a line here. Okay, it’s up to left. Uphill, right? Okay, good. Perfect. Thought I was losing it there for a second. Not too much, though. Nope. Oh, I was about to say this is about the point in the round where Jason, I’ll take that. Two under the last two shoot four. Good tight. It was because of the glaze on the tea box, you know. That’s all. Yeah. Yeah, man. My man pumped me up. Had to give him some juice there. I If his was right to left dash, I’m pretty sure so is mine. I don’t know. I don’t know. I don’t know. Yeah, I got to hold this to keep pace with Jay. He’s two under. Two back or two to play is going to be tough. But I can stay within one. It’ be nice. Oh, hit it. Oh my god. All right. Got this to stay within the J. Get a little Come on, boys. Give me something. Oh, give me something. Come on, baby. This is to go to one under birdie part. Little sliding right to left part. It’s all pace here. It’s pace and line. If I get the If I get both pace and line right, it’ll go in. Come on. Oh, he’s feeling it. F1 J1. That couldn’t be more delicate on that low low side. Oh my god. Did you just heal that? Was it heel? Did you just heal? Come on, Ev. Let’s go, baby. What are you at? Two under. Two under. This would match Jason and birdies. Oh, that’s something I could take home. Yeah, you can. You know, the the score doesn’t really matter. I’m not sure if it’ll make it home. Yeah, the club in your luggage. Yeah, exactly. Already lost the club. All right, here we go for a bird. Let’s leave it. N that was a good putt. I think you hit such a nice putt then. Fireworks. Fireworks from my missed putt right there. Yeah, congratulations. Oh, congratulations. You suck through seven. Jay is two under. Barrett and I let it slip there. We stayed even. Uh Ev is also let it slip there. He’s a three over. Two to play. Very simple. eighth hole and nine’s pretty tricky. We have to catch Jay somehow. He is a good player, but we still don’t like losing. He could bogey nine. Nine’s a home. Yeah, I like that dash. Like if it comes down the hill, it’s three putt. Yeah, he knows his dad better than anyone. He’s going to bogey nine. You heard it here first. You heard it from Dash. Not in those words. I think you just need to aim like maybe 2 and 1/2 yards left and hit for just before the green. Okay, I got you, buddy. 53 y. Um, are you home? Dashy said two and a half yards left. Yeah. Yeah. And then just before the green just How do you like those? So classy. Oh. Oh. Why? Why? Needed about that was 6 ft. No, I just needed about 6 ft. I got 60. Just see this one piercing one bounce spin trickle in there. Little one for the boys for the lads. Oh, it’s got to go. Get up two yards, man. Two yards. Beautiful. Oh, two yards. You didn’t want it. No, you didn’t. Spinner. That was nice. I’ll take that spinner. Chase makes one down. Love that. Go. That’s nice. That’s deep. Left himself orange. You’re glad you hit it there. I was thinking bit directionally challenged there. Directionally challenged. All right, I’m going to try to do a little bit lower kind of what Jace did. One hop in the fringe and then just trick it back there. There it is. Clip. Sit. Sit. Sit. That’s it. Oh, bad kick to it. We’ll make that. Yeah, that’s it. Make that. Yeah, that’s good. Got some juice today. Yeah, we do. Oh, man. I see it like outside that little like foofy thing out there. Yep. I see that. Yeah. Absolutely love that. Try to get it there. Yep. Just trust me. Yep. Got it. All right, boys. Here we go. Try to make a bird right here. Come on. tip. Good lines. I I had to get it to the hole. Missing them all short. Yeah, just blew it right past the brake. This is big because Hey, what’s the what’s the scores right now, boys? Fortunately, I’ve left myself a lot of uphills. Uh so, I can just be a little bit more aggressive with my putts. But, uh yeah, if I hold this, it’s pretty much over. No. Trying to trying to hit the You should have used the brush. Yeah, I know. I know. It was It was moving slow. Okay, that gives these guys opportunity to get back to one under. Must make last hole is going to be tight if they do. One of them makes it, which is good. Try and see it coming in at like 7 or 8:00 just from the left hand side there. Come on. just stayed straight on you. No way. I hit that exactly where I wanted to. Got his way down. I thought I was going to snap in. Hit it exactly where I was looking. And look at the line. Still straight. Another loss to Jason. Tap it in there. You haven’t. Oh, no. You didn’t make your putt. So, in my head, you were three under. Yeah, buddy. Positive thoughts. Let’s get it going. I’m going to get I’m going to get out of bats worse. So, I guess you can kind of see. Yep. Still shoot. All right, this to get with them up so we can make that. Just a little left to right of dashy up the hill. Pauseman. It’s got to go. Got to go. Mo, there it is. Very good. Wow. Just within one. It’s tight. Do it. And look at that. The sun’s shining on Dashy. Could you run top score check? Two under for Jay, one under for bat, level for myself, and three three for Evan. One more chance. I need to work on my wedge game cuz it’s been atrocious today, unfortunately. But you you don’t you don’t need to do anything right now. You just had 3 hours of sleep and you flew, which flying and then playing I that’s one thing that I cannot do. Flying and playing the same. You try to you try to um get in and then make and then play the next day cuz you can’t you can’t do it. I I can’t do it cuz it just I don’t know what it is about flying. Um I always get off the plane tired and then my body doesn’t move the same way. You know what I mean? Yeah. I can feel I can feel the a lot of arms and when I’m armsy I tend to pull it which goes a lot sitting down for you know a good 2 three hours. All right boys. 93 yards last hole. I got a 52. Just trying to get a little pop and sort of stop the control the spin. He’s just trying something new. Yeah, that is right. He’s trying to dunk it. He’s trying to slam dunk it. Bat. That is just money. Oh no. It’s okay. No, it’s good. Oh, it’s okay. We got a pot. We got a pot. You got a matters. Oh, you started working on that shot at Sawrass. I feel like J put the towel under. That That is correct. Yes, that and then Well, we’re working on flight control. That’s what we were doing. Yes. Go watch that video. How to control your wedges. And then going to try and read your hit just past about 95. I would say let’s just say 97 y just to be exact. 97 y. Um that should give me enough space to for for the ball to come back to spin back near the hole. Oh. Oh, too far left. You might die here. That’s great distance. A decent wave in it. Just sits there. Great distance. Yeah, it’s a nice putt up the hill. It’s a good part up the hill. I just pulled it left a little bit, but that’s okay. We can hold that part. I’m going to try and on bat’s line. So, kind of the edge of that bunker just right of the pin to try and keep it on top. Yeah. Yeah. Solid. Oh, Bobby’s rock. Bobby’s rock. Is it rock? Man, that was crazy. Actually, that you’re fine there, dude. So, you see that? See that rock? There’s rocks beyond that and it bounced back up and then on the green hold. Wild. All right, last swing. Hopefully. So much better. We’re We’re using our our one. We haven’t used our one yet. You like a since we’ve been blasting everything. 90 shot. Feel the 90, but it’s 98. Yep. Yep. Love it. And it’s just over between flag and that. We hit it there before, so we just got to hit a little bit farther and it’s Hello. Hello. Oh, beat once. He deserves it. He deserves it. Come on now. Come on, baby. Great shot. Oh, right. Well done. I feel like I just won the Masters. Come on, baby. Woo. That was probably the only best swing. That was only only good swing of the day, but we’ll take it. You hit so many good ones. Just They didn’t go next to the hole. Wouldn’t that consider a good shot if it goes? Uh, no. You executed. Oh, good swing. Just bad swing. Yeah, good swings. Yeah. All right. to tie second place before bat parts. It’s kind of a little left to right at the start. It’s going to go right to left up the slope and then pretty level if not even coming back once it gets right up top. Don’t mind what Jay’s doing there. He’s laying down because he built these greens to make them very subtle breaks. They’re tough to read. Just got to commit to whatever you think it is. Get the speed right. Give it a good chance. Does he have it? Get in. On. Put the heat on. This has got to go. All right. Must make posted 27 in the clubhouse. Birdie part here to finish two to put heat on Jay to make his Come on, let’s go here, man. cuz um that be the last hole and he’s one back and he needs to hole this. I would love to see him hole it because I kind of want to hole a part on top of him. Come on. But he’s he’s put in a lot of hard work over the last year. His short game has improved dramatically. His body improved dramatically as well. So and he left it short. Go chases it off. Go. Oh no. As soon as you hit They’ll hear that as soon as you hit as soon as he putts. Like I said, he left it short straight away, but it’s I mean, he hit a great putt there. Good playing back. It’s not good enough. It’s not good enough. But thank you, sir. Thank you, boys. Uphill left or right. Traditional great minds think alike. Yeah. I mean, I could uh I I want to hold it. I’m going to I’m going to do my best to hold it. So, it’s got a reach as well. Oh, yeah. Rain lower, didn’t it? Left it short. Yeah, the drains are they were a little slower after the rain, I reckon. No, they were so fast this morning. Good win, Jay. Thanks, boys. I was uh I’ll take a little two under there. That’s pretty good. And that’s just like cruising. Just like not even just It was kind of difficult how soft it was. It was spin control. Absolutely. Little left to right. Yeah. But is that is that enough there? You think? I believe. Yeah, I believe that’s enough. Come on. This would be this would be great to just end a swap with a birdie. Absolutely. That’d be huge. Pour it in, lad. Come on. I don’t care. Great finish. That was for the lads right there. That was awesome. Pleasure, bro. Pleasure. Great playing. Great playing. actually won. Let’s redo the handshake. So, boom. Boom. All right, lads. That was it for the course record series. Thank you very much, Evan Thompson, for coming on today. Round of applause. I mean, massive, massive. I mean, he just like the the flight the whole day that he had for him to show up. Very, very much appreciated. The scores today, I won with two under that one under. Good plan. Good player. Thanks, brother. Thanks, Rough. Nice level par. And Ev, what what we I’ll give you one. Two over. Two over. So, not too bad, man. Like, he played pretty solid. We got to get it back on the channel. He’s got to play it with his own clubs. 100%. He didn’t have his own He didn’t have his clubs, but thanks again, guys. I appreciate you sticking around. Also, thanks again, Jason Spencer, for prepping the course. Love Jason in the rain. But what do we got to do, Matt? Like and subscribe. Check out the other videos. Yeah. Here we go. Yeah, sounds good. I got 100 m straight. Are you serious? I feel like I I feel like I’ll pull a calf if I started doing uh push-ups. 60. How many was that? 70. 70. Gosh, he’s doing it easy. Like the form’s perfect. You know what? He was one of 80. Ah, come on. Come on, baby. I can’t believe he just rocked out like 100 here. I can’t believe Rock 80 on the just on the trot without stopping. He’s ready, bro. You got to You got to go for 10 more. 10 more. I got it. I got it. Four. What happens when you lose? You can’t lose. You got to win. Oh, man. I love that. Four. I’m glad the caddy didn’t have to do half. We’ll be here all night. Actually, 50%. One. Last one. Here it is. Let’s go. Great job, bro. Great job. Wow. Evan was here. Evas here. Evan was here. That was awesome, bro. That’s a thumbnail right there. Uh, you just played the course. Yeah. What do you think you were going to shoot? Uh, three under. What did you shoot? Two over. What would you do better next time? Oh, man. Um, Aby’s club. Yeah. Well, that’s the obvious answer, but I think it’s it’s really like knowing like what type of shot to play in the trajectory in order to hit the proper shot. I felt like I was just hitting trying to hit the number instead of the actual shot at hand and it really cost me. Okay, I like that. Pretty tricky. Very tricky. Yeah. And who do you think should come take on the course record next? Ooh. Who do I think should take it on? Raiders, pros, doesn’t matter. Yeah. Celebrities. I would like obviously the obvious answer obviously obvious answer would be Bryson. Okay. Okay, I see what I would I would love to see him control his wedges in this situation, in this course. And and Tommy Fleetwood as well would want to see him. That’s a good one. Good suggestions. Tommy and Bryson. Tommy and Bryson. Let’s do it. Let’s do it. Want to see them next on the channel.

As an Aussie, I'm glad to see ua represented in the world stage of YT golf. You boys need to get a collab with Ron Chopper happening. Get him over there.
Awesome match boys! Always love the energy, you guys bring to the content.
Ruff rocking the creamsicle fit
How the Lads don’t have more traction in the YouTube space blows my mind. Great golf with even better personalities. Been watching for a while. Will be happy to say I was one of the first when you guys blow up
Man yall gotta collab with Kwon and the New Zealand guys. (Taco, Tooms, Sam, Harry) the banter and the matchups would be unreal haha
Catching strays huh
The admiration that everyone has for Jason says alot about him. Now, he just needs a 52 year old nobody who recently picked up the game, and who duffs his shots sometimes, on this channel. That's a hint, Jason…. 😊
Ruff laid out his clothes the night before and thought, "Ooh ima kill 'em with the orange sherbet."
walk of fame imprint on the last green 😁
well done to all the lads!
Can’t get enough of the banter among the lads. Fun golf is the best golf
NIKE putter gang gang
No more broom for bat eh?
Such a great facility. Evan's a good guy.
Definitely get the NZ lads on the channel
Step 1: Try to play golf like The Lads
Step 2: Realize I will never be as good as The Lads
Step 3: Try to talk like The Lads
Step 4: Audition for Bluey
You should invite the the new zeeland boys. Kwon and them. Love the vids😊

Jay Day, I'm a huge fan and critic of your podcast. Great content, but also concerned about your PGA performance..sorry I'm trying to reach out to you on this platform..don't know any other way as a fan to reach out..correct me if I'm wrong, maybe your podcast is interfering with your professional performance..not sure ..you're only 37-38 yrs old and have at least 5-7 yrs of great golf..I'm hoping you can balance family, friends and the golfing..maybe do podcast in the off season..Just don't want you saying what ifs 10 yrs from now..God bless and wish you well
Are you guys going to come out with any “lads” brand clothing line? Would love to support
