[Music] Well, good morning everybody and welcome to another Sunday morning show. It seems like every Sunday morning there is a fresh box that arrives in the studio here. And today, well, I’ve got something which is going to help with the editing side of stuff because in this box I have a new laptop. And the reason why I’ve got a new laptop is because Joe is having my old laptop and I can’t wait to be working with someone with a bit more speed. So, I brought Joe in because uh Joe’s going to be helping out a lot more behind the scenes when it comes to In fact, have you been on any videos yet? Uh, I think we did a coaching one together. Oh, we did a coaching one. That’s right. We did do a coaching one. But I wanted to introduce you to Joe because it’s kind of the fresh start, isn’t it? We’re going some new adventures going on down the road. Um, and that’s why we’ve had to put a new laptop in. Well, to celebrate the fact that I’m introducing Joe to you, I thought we would do something a little bit different today. A little bit of a challenge for the Sunday morning show. And that challenge comes from a sponsor of the channel. Yes, for this particular video, this video has been sponsored by the Ultimate Drive Championship. I’d never heard of the Ultimate Drive Championship, but it’s just a fun way in which you can have a little bit of a gamble on whether you can get a hole in one. Now, I’m going to take Joe, I’m going to try and get Bernie into the studio today, and we’re going to go through the Ultimate Drive Championship and see if we’re going to get a hole in one. Now, it takes 48 hours to go through the whole process. if you want to do it. So, it means that you can kind of come and go as you please, depending on what facilities that you’re going to, and you can have a little flutter for yourself. I’m going to put down a little code for you as well, which is what I’ve used to go on to the actual championship itself. But, we’re going to go into the studio and see how we get on. So, let’s head down there now and see if we can get that ultimate drive hole in one. This is where my dodgy arm comes into it. Oh, why do you have to follow it? It’s my better side, isn’t it? The other side’s your better side. at the back of you. This bit here. Right. So, we’ve made our way into the studio. We have got the got it set up. Bernie’s here cuz he wasn’t here in the office. So, he’s joined us because I don’t know if you’re going to be able to do this. I’m going to have a go. When you mentioned the money was involved, I was straight down there. I talked to him for this. So, have you ever done cuz they used to do like holein-one challenges? I think in fact when you used to work at the range down in Paintton, did was there not a hole-in-one challenge opportunity down there? It was before I um started, but I used to do um close to the pin all week. You had to buy the balls and whoever got the closest then had an opportunity if they wanted to rather than take the cash, they got like five balls and if they hold it, they won a car. But I don’t think anybody really went for it and just took the money and man. Well, I think this is quite cool because obviously you can do it in studios, home studios if you’ve got it at home, which would be rare, but ultimately some people do have it. And then you can go to a driving range and these modern driving ranges, we’ve got obviously Trackman ranges. We’ve got top tracer ranges. You can set yourself up. You got 48 hour hours to do the check. I know we haven’t got 48 hours to get an hour. That’s it. And you But but I actually feel that we only need an hour, Bernie, to get this done to be honest with you. Got to hit it 220 yards. We’ve got it set the hole at 230. So what that means that we need to make sure we hit it to 220. So, it won’t go in and we won’t see it go in, but it’s got to stay on the line at exactly 220 yards. That’s what we’re doing. You make it sound so easy. And I I I feel I feel that as this is um as this is kind of Is this your this this is your first time on the Sunday morning show? On the Sunday morning show. Okay. So, as this is Joe’s first, I feel like Joe should just lead us, you know? He should be really a big responsibility. Well, you pick your club and off you go. before the shovel. There you go. Absolutely. Let’s go. Just swinging for me again. Would you want a little look? Yeah, let’s have a look. Used to do this for a living. Teach. What’s your handicap? Eight. Is it? Yeah. Must have a good short game. Feel like we need a drum roll. Sevenwood. Never been hit before. Oh, it’s not. Oh, no. It’s a good strike. It’s a hell of a strike. Too big, ain’t it? Yeah. That’s going up to the That’s going up to the 23. Well, you’re not bad. I I didn’t to be fair I didn’t actually quite catch that. It pitched it landed 208. It landed 208. That wasn’t bad, was it? This is like This is our warm up as well, is it? Is this bang on your yardage or you The problem with me, man, is you never quite know what’s coming out, do you? No. That’s true. That’s gone. No, that’s 195. That’s not near. It’s going to run bit wafty, won’t it? What sort of run are you getting? That’s a 209. 208. 209. Is that what I got to? A little bit far. Okay. Go on, B. Yeah, it might be too much. No, this is this is the debut in this with the chunky grip you got. Yeah. I mean, come on, Bernie. I tell you what, no. Hang on. Stop. Stop. Stop. 220. 22. 22. Take that first blow. That’s impressive. How far off line were you? So you’re 2.2 y off line and you’re 2 y long. So you’re basically like the club I would say you’re like a four four yard four yard square out. I think I’m done with That’s not bad. Do anything different this time. Joe, um I think I genuinely think I have to take a bit off. I didn’t quite strike the last one. It was like 225. So big boy. Here we go. Let’s see what See what it brings. more that one. Criy was like a putt, wasn’t it? Probably good for yardage to be a little bit offline at 2:15 total. Do you know what I like about this game already? I mean, I know it’s like afternoon and we’re doing this in in our work time. But when there’s when this is kind of like a bit of a game and a bit of fun, you can’t really call what we do work done. Let’s be honest. No, I know, but it’s work time, isn’t it? It’s like you should really be working. Um, you could chill out, have a couple of beers and off you go. Bit right. I reckon that’s good for yardage though. Carrying around 200. Yeah, I think when you Yeah, that’s good for yardage. Look, 18 19 yard off. That’s pretty good though. Not bad. There’s a few little um testers early on, isn’t there? A few markers. Few markers. Well, a good strike. It’s not It’s not moving at all. A long way as well. That is it. Yeah. [Music] bit on the green. Yeah. Well, you going to stick the same club or is there going to be any tactical changes? I don’t know. I think if I cut that, I think that’s the right distance. You all change here. So, well, I’m I’m having a bit of a reshuffle. So, I’ve been doing a video recently which will be coming out in the next few weeks and we we’ve actually been filming this week the actual break pass series of it. But I’ve brought out the old Mazuno TZoid 3wood cuz I reckon this one goes about 220 or did back in the day. I’ve got a feeling every single one of your clubs like fairwood would go 220. 220. Yeah, the driver’s close to that as well, isn’t it? Oh, hello. That’s got a chance that cut a bit more. It’s not, is it? Cut a bit more. I mean, this is 212, so I can I know I can give it a little bit more next time, but that’s um Yeah, just comes out a little bit lower. And feel free, Bernie. I mean, were you ever a teasoid player? No. Did you ever? I’ve never I’ll be honest with you, I’ve never really been a Mazuno player. I never I mean, I like the irons in the back in the day when Tiger was using them and with various disguises on them, but I never never really bothered Mazuno. I was Oh, you mean Mazuno irons he used, didn’t he? Yeah, using Mazuna iron, but I wasn’t never really a Mazuna fanboy. Anything to report from the Sunday morning show then, Burns? What’s uh anything new in your life? Uh oh, got Sky TV ready for the Rider Cup. Been watching that. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Well, it’s been out this week, hasn’t it? Sky for a few years, but we’ve gone back to it. Um right, less cut. Yeah. Well, more cut wasn’t it? Was it more cut? Yeah, I started straighter. Ah, don’t overcut. Don’t overcut. Going as it waves beyond the two 220 on the line mark. You’ve got we I feel like we’re really dialed in on the numbers though. Feel like you’ve got the right club. Joe’s needs to ease back on that sevenwood. 230 is probably a fair one. Mine needs to harve. What’s your take on the rider cut then? You think I mean obviously we’re moving into Sunday and everybody’s going to be watching what’s going on. Massively confident that you that Europe would win over there. I know it doesn’t happen very often win on an American soil, but I just I had that feeling to start with, but since I’ve been seeing a lot of the clips, a lot of the media stuff and how the American team seem to be quite together and they seem to be getting on better than I’ve ever seen. Whether that’s just the press making it seem that way to to g them up or whatever or motivation, a bit of motivation, but I’m a little bit more not worried, but I feel like it’s going to be a close match and the Americans look up for this and yeah, I just I think I think America going to shade it now. So, I’ve changed what I was thinking about myself. What do I think, Bernie? Yeah. What do you think about? I think that I just think it’s so hard to win away for these guys and there’s not there’s I think what is it 30 I think they said like only 37 European players have have experience winning away. Yeah. Um you know but with all with all like fairness quite a a bit of a lump of of the players that play have won it. Madina Rose was there. Um Rory was there. We had Luke Donald was obviously there. Yeah. Um I don’t know who else was in the um you know, was Alex Nin involved in that one. I’m not sure he got He was definitely in Paris, wasn’t he? Alex, great to see him win at um BMW, wasn’t it? It’s the second time he’s won there as well. Oh, hello. That might be on the line, but it’s a bit short. No, it’s just drifting. Too heavy again. Number there, Nearly there, though. We’re not far off it are we Joe’s Joe’s back. What club have you got now? Colonel Mayers has supplied me with some new armory. Oh, is he? What’s he giving you there? Three iron. I reckon that would go too far as well. You think I’d have gone and got the four iron. Me personally, you hit this off the deck. What is it? What club is it? Three iron. Yeah. Strong boy. [Music] Not like that. They may have next time. Hang on. Hang on. Where’s it going to end up? How far’s it going? It’s only gone 195. It wasn’t your best strike. No. Okay, fair enough. Yeah, my have to run back. Done a lot of running in this challenge. I might actually try that seven with hit with a bit of different shape. Yeah, I like that with you. I like that seven. Be interested to see how you get on with this. Just standard grip with his arthritis. Let’s see how that feels. Don’t feel too fat, that cheek. Be in the bag. Be in the bag. Be in the bag. Oh, no. It’s going right. Bernie, you’ve got the closest today. Like I said, you’re going to be, I think, a serial winner of this. I do feel it. If anyone’s got a seven out there, Bernie wants it. Please. I’m happy to pay for it. That’s better. Oh, yes. Oh, no. But again, look how far it’s gone. Joe. Yeah, it’s huge. It’s carried beyond the point of no return. You’re not going to get any spin off that. I wish I got my got my own clubs. That was a big mistake, wasn’t that? Yeah, this is the one buddy. I take a It’s 194 as well. I’ve chopped it spinning at 5,000. That’s not getting into the number. Having fun burning enjoying it, huh? Yeah. Yeah. On that note though, rider cupwise, who who you uh who you been thinking about, Joe? Who you think? I know we’re I know we’re Sunday and it’s already sort of unfolding. Who are you actually thinking? It’s a tough one, isn’t it? I think I think we’ve got a really good team. Um, but I think the fact that it’s in New York and all those rowdy American fans, I think we’re going to I think they’re going to have, you know, a huge backing and and the American team is top as well. So, I don’t know. It’s a hard one to call, but I think I’m going to go with Europe. I think but I think it’ll be really tight. I think it’ll be really tight. This is it. Come on, Bernie. That was low. Yeah, but that’s cutting back. That’s not straight. That’s left str and miles. Yeah, you’ve got you need a five iron or something. Definitely need a five iron. A little sneaky. I found a a little 19 degree. Yeah. Hybrid 85 g S titalist 909H. Oh god, why is that gone so far left? That’s the right club though. As in that’s going to go that’s going to get close to the 220 mark. That’s 214. That’s gone. That could be one for you there, Burns. Joe, I think you need to go and get a different club. I think I’m going to have to go back to Harry’s needs to go in Harry’s car and get a five iron cuz that is 240 y is not going to cut it, I’m afraid. No, it’s such a tricky challenge, isn’t it? There’s been some good shots. Just not quite. There’s some great shots. I wonder how many people actually take this out. There is a code and I will put the code right there for you now which you can go and uh have a go for yourself and also you get a bit of a discount because you’re using the DHD code. a joke on. Go looking for looking for the magic club, right? You got He’s got a whole bag. Got a bag of spanners. Leave no stone on sand. Fortunately, he doesn’t have a four iron there. I think he’s lost it. So, I’m going to have to hit five iron. That’ll be right for you. Five. Come on. Straight up. Step up. Straight up and hit on there. It’s a right club, I reckon. Good strike. Go. Yeah, you that’s the gloves. That’s the glove. That’s the one. That’s the one. Don’t change that club. What’s that little bab? What have you got there? Oh, I’ve seen that shaft before shaft. I took the tit adapter off and stuck in the PH. Oh, how’s it go? It’s up and beyond, isn’t it? That’s the up and beyond shaft. Not a go yet. High launching bomber. Not had a go yet. You got some You got some clober in there, ain’t you? Ah, all the clober. What a Oh yes. Is that a Piper? That’s That’s Hang on a minute. That’s two shanks in two weeks on the Sunday morning show. Joe you too much. Don’t Don’t show uh uh She’ll get better. Don’t Don’t show Don’t show Harry you’ve just done that to his five eye. Come on. It’s all good. It’s all right. Yeah. Look at that shape. No, don’t look at that shape, buddy. It’s not failing at all. No, it is. It’s going to get a bit of ground help. Go. Go forward. Go forward, Bernie. It’s one It’s 220. What? You must get half the money. You got half the money. 220. You are 1.8 yards offline, Bernie. Wow. Are we all happy with our clubs? I think so. I mean, if I could just get this just to drift to the right. I’ve got the I feel like I’ve got the start location right. It’s just not drifting. If it does drift, it will get I’ll get the yardage up right as well. Cut then it literally they’re on. You can chuck a blanket over the last four shots. So you what have you done to the five? You lifted it up. And also tell me tell me Bernie, what have you done with the grip? What’s going on with the grip on this one at the moment? Okay, so I’ve made a second setup. Yeah. That I can use at the moment. I’m struggling at the moment to clench my fist properly with particularly that finger. So almost that’s as far as it goes. So just by having a thicker grip, I’m able to sort of wrap my fingers around it without feeling much pain. And to be honest, it feels okay hitting off I mean hitting off a mat with a wood. Don’t know what it be like if I was striking an iron slightly more steeper swing at it. Yeah. Release your swinging. But yeah, which and the distance is okay. I’ve not really lost much. Probably lost like 5 yards. Yeah. No, you’re happy with that. It’s just an experimental set really. I didn’t want to do it to my actual clubs. That’s why I borrowed this fiberboard off you and a couple other clubs have borrowed but just in case it was no good and I have to take all the grips off. So, it’s just having a an additional set that I can sort of get around at the moment. Hopefully, I’ll get back to some other sets once I get this under control. Take it on. I reckon I could chase a three iron up there. Don’t you? Yeah. I don’t know. Do you think so? One of Harry’s three irons. No, I think you’re right. That’s 183. You You do know it’s got a little bit of draw. It’s not just Just hit it a bit. It’s not 2003 anymore, Dan. Time moves on. Oh, I like it. Well, then Oh, is it cutting? No, it’s good for distance, though. 208 landing 208. That’s going to finish 221. Ah, it’s not coming. Is it okay or not? It’s trying. Yeah. It’s not enough. No, that’s it. Bernie, that is it. Two. Benny. Bernie. Bernie. Bernie. Oh my gosh. Oh no. Oh my word. Oh no. Oh man. Two yards left. Oh. Oh boy. You can’t get close that. Look at that. Surely they got to send me some money for that. Oh my gosh. How is it burnt? But the good thing about this as well, like you don’t even like you only got to hit one good shot. Every golfer in the world hits shot like a like a pro at times. You only need one shot, don’t you? So anybody can do it. It’s not like it’s not like the better player is always going to manage this. You could get your 28 handicapper who just pipes one. There’s an element of luck, isn’t there? Yeah. That’s it. Joe, that said, it’s a bit long, I think. It’s turning. Yeah, you think he’s n it. I know it’s not. Great shot. 219, Joe. Well done. Take a bow. Take a bow, Joe. Take a bow. Not enough. Not enough. It’s going to probably run out to around 215. [Music] 220 was a bat. Was it about for a tow strike? 7 yards left though. That one. Go with this two. If this I’m getting Hello. We change the club too on Tortoise 11. Oh my. Oh, hello. Hello. No way. Let’s get in there. Sit. Stop. Oh, burns. Two iron tortoise. This is it. I tell you what. Oh, it could be. Tell you what. Oh, it could be. 195, but it needs some run. 211. Very good though. That was good. Right, I think that’s it. Well, that was a lot of fun, wasn’t it? Can’t believe how close Bernie got his hole in it. No, I know. Absolutely amazing, wasn’t it? I honestly thought he was it was going in. Well, I hope you enjoyed uh that part of the video of us in the studio with the Ultimate Drive Championship. Just want to take this opportunity to thank Ultimate Drive Championship for well giving us a little bit of fun for the afternoon. Um please go and check them out for yourselves. Link in the description down below. And don’t forget to use that code. Might save you a little bit of money if you’re entering the competition for yourself. I think it’s fantastic. You can play it at any sort of location really. If you’re going to a driving range, it just spices things up and you can have a bit of fun with your mates on the driving range. But I’ve got to get back now because we got to go and watch the European win the Ryder Cup. It’s singles day here, Ryder Cup Sunday. Go and enjoy it and let’s go Europe.

Oooops, Ryder Cup predictions arent looking so good Bernie😂😂😂
Morning all …. What a ryder cup aye 😂😂😂😂😂Absolute slapping
Breaking news Donald Trump has called for a change in the Ryder Cup USA and Rest of the World v Europe!!
You can’t beat a little bit of needle love it.
See some of the crew next Friday – Saturday!
Is Jordan still with you Dan? Looked fun by the way. Welcome to Joe
Great fun challenge – perfect for a studio in the depth of winter!!
Bernie’s Ryder Cup prediction is looking solid so far 🤣🤣🤣
Boys and their toys😂
Starting to worry about you Lester prefering the back of Dan 🤔
Morning Dan, time to get the extraordinary performance of the European team, discussed dont think Ive ever seen a "TEAM performance " absolutely unreal!!
Welcome Joe (the non pro) 😅
Allez les bleus! Surprised Trump doesn't announce a 1 shot per hole on Europe!!! The still wouldn't win. The team has been magnificent.
Looks fun. Has Jordan gone off to join the corporate world? Be decent to have him say his goodbyes or make a guest appearance
The European Ryder Cup Team are absolutely incredible, we have been crushing America and the terrible behaviour of the New York crowds have only made our resolve stronger, I'm seriously thinking that America won't even get to 10 points.!! 🇪🇺 Rule.!!
Dan would be good to have an update of who is now working for the channel and who has moved on; as following you for several years people on the channel become part of the family. Fun video
That looked like a great challenge. Good efforts all round, apart from Bernie’s Ryder Cup prediction. What an event and what a team performance from our lads. 🎉👌🫡
Where is Jordan ?
Bernie so close
Great video Dan ⛳️⛳️
Still got my T-zoid driver in the garage. May have to bring it back out again
Love that, might suggest it as a County team matches warm up at home games with a studio for the boy!
He’s playing an event at Fairmont next 3 days and will be sporting the DHG caps.
Mizuno T-Zoids were my first set of woods , had to travel to the outskirts of London to buy them being a Lefty
