I want to um you know the shot that I keep seeing on Instagram is the is the Mayo one. You know the one you was playing at US Open? Yeah. What do you mean? Like driveier than that. You was hitting a lot like these. Yeah. Cuz you know them ones so grainy like so tight. Can’t really recreate that out here though. But you don’t really play that here. No. M depend like see like off that. Yeah. Off that. Yeah. Like that. Look. Dead. Just So what will you do? Just go ball first. Yeah. Back. Ball bit back. Yes. That I love how Mayo like loves to see that from everywhere. You know what we should do? What? We should have 50 quid today. Yeah. for if you manage to keep it out of the he all day. Just as a bonus. Yeah, like a little bonus. I’ll hit seven iron off every peg. What? For 50 beans. You know that shot that you just hit like over the back edge there? Yeah. I remember a time at um at Shanklin. I think it was the first time I’ve seen you in a while. and you finned one out the bunker and you said to me, you was like, “What? Does no one play that long bunker shot to that blue stick out there?” Just blades it long in the green. You not play them long bunker shots here. Yeah. Look. Have you done anything different with your short game or not? Not really. Would you say it was the shots you were leaving yourself that showed up in the stats? Yeah. In terms of like the short game went downhill, but like if short game leaving yourself impossible shots. Yeah. If you’re 10 yards from the pin. Yeah. Shortsided. Shortsided and downhill down everything. It’s like and you chip to 15 ft. It’ll be a bad chip. A bad shot. Yeah. Say you left yourself a bunch of these where you’ve got load of room. Chip it stiff all the time. I always like to a good stat is like whether you hit it how far do you chip it away from the hole. So every time you miss the green if you can chip it to inside 6 ft more times than not. Yeah. You know that’s ball back [Music] little driver little drivers. So I put ball back and then like as I go in stand up a little bit so you can be down without being diggy. You know down but not digging. Yeah. Yeah, like that looked heavy, but it weren’t. I mean, it’s 12 short, but maybe a touch. That sounded good. I kind of like that. Like, but I think sometimes I go I think I get a bit like too much that way with the shaft. I think I just get way too dryy. Yeah. Nice. Nice action that isn’t it? Oh, nearly binsy. Nearly Binsville. We’ll start in the bunker. All right. So, game of 21. Do you want to tell them the rules or not? Yeah. So, if you’ve never heard of 21, you have two balls. First place gets two points. Second place gets one point. If you hold it, you get five. Yeah. Should we play the D green rule or not? Yeah. If you Yeah. D green’s minus one. And you can’t chip it in to save it or not? Yeah, I suppose. Yeah, chip in chip in to save the minus one. All right, we’re going straight straight in the trap. Straight to the trap to that first pin there. Yes, sir. Are you going lob wedge first game? Yeah. Yeah. Lobosaurus. Oh, that’s Oh, sit. Oh, sit. Oh, sit. Hit the [ __ ] Oh, should we not play the D green rule? No, you can’t. But like that’s going to be out of the shot. But like Yeah, he’s degraed it. Like that’s still rolling. Is it still going? [Music] Yeah, it is. Yeah. No, it’s not. That might be an illegal flag. Go on then. One for one. Did you just roll that in there? Yeah. Yeah, I did. Rolled it into a good lie and had no sense. You did? Yeah. Did you learn anything? I did. Don’t go long. Yeah. There’s not a lot. Is it? It’s not bad. Not a lot in there, is there? Was that a roll? Yeah. Nice. Nice. I mean, I’ I’d roll it out of that. Yeah. I mean, and out of that. That’s all right, isn’t it? Yeah. Do you like wet sand? Are you a fan of it? I mean, I’ve got to be able to play it. That’s same as your first one, is it? Yeah, but it didn’t have the top spin. What do you reckon then? I reckon that’s 2-1, don’t you? I think so. Yeah. 2-1 to you. So, 2-1 to you. Two-1 to me. By the way, this pin is dirty. It’s filth. Is this legal? No way. There’s two ways to play it, but I’m glad you’re going first. No. Got to hold it. You’ve picked two. Get inside that then. You’ve picked two outrageous ones, haven’t you, to start here. Oh, go on then. Stay there. Settle. Settle. Hold in it. Settle. It’s good though. I thought that was stone. Like I thought that was probably 4 foot. Yeah. I like this. I like this play. I like how you’ve been aggressive there. No. No. No. Ah, I thought if you could go up past it, maybe there’s a chance. But I respect I respect you like giving it a go. Do you know what I mean? Like he’s basically just said, “Here you are, Josh. Have a free two-pointer.” Two-pointer right now as well. Oh. Oh, is that two points? I’ve just got I’ve got to mute that part that you’ve just said there. That might be a minus one that we played to off the rip. So, just do a drop in here and we’ll go to this one on the right. All right. Four zip. 4. Is it 4, mate? No, I think I’m on one. You lost one cuz you degraed it. Yeah, but I gained one and I was already on one. Oh, you’re already on one, mate. Like, come on, mate. Sorry, bro. You got to watch these 41 then. Yeah, you got to watch these DP World Tour players. I’m going to go some of them. You do have to. I’m going to go nice and low. Little drawy one. Little tumbler. That’s a nice effort, actually. shot. I thought he was going to go a little bit more right to left there. Little tumbly. Yeah, a little tumbly. I think you’re right. It didn’t look like you was going to hit that low, but you just drive it a bit more with the hand. More drive, mate. That’s It’s about 18 in. You’ve come out hot here, haven’t you? Can’t let you get up. Tumble in there then. Tumble in there. That was pure, bro. That’s little two-pointer right there. I think that’s two for now anyway. So, but if you get a great line, you you might not get a good one the next time. Yeah. So, drop by high do you mean like you got to land it on the green or something like Yeah. Well, and if your high one doesn’t land on It’s not It’s not just don’t count, right? Wow. Like, you ain’t ever landing this on the green in tournament, are you? Not with this line. No. You going low ball here? Yeah. Lowy. Oh, that’s hot, isn’t it? [ __ ] bounce as well. That might be the high. That might be the high. Joby, eh? High one’s got to land on the green. Is it like high versus the low one or not? No, it’s just No, it’s just Yeah, I think I’m in a secure one here. Do you know what I mean? What? A little low secure. Just secure some points. Yeah. Smart. Smart. [Laughter] Oh, he hasn’t. He hasn’t. That was unlucky, bro. Too hard. Amazing that you’ve hit that inside your um little roller. How’s your lie? Yeah, I’ve gone for the same same as you in the fluffy bit actually. Oh, I think you got it. First little first three piece of the day. Is it a fowski? That’s a fullski, mate. Um, so what’s that scorewise? It was 4-1, then it was 53. 65. Turn around. Turn around. It’s a lot tougher than what it looks, isn’t it? Not really. You know what I think? That was It was downhill, wasn’t it? We’re just rolling it where we want. Uh, just do a placer. Yeah, just place it. Trying to get it teeded up. [ __ ] hell, mate. Just let it go. Let it go, man. Tow down. It’s not hard when you’re six degrees flat, is it? [Laughter] Do you know what I like? You know those pants? Those Able pants you’ve got on? Yeah. But because you film in that way. Yeah. They’ve got the Able logo on there. Getting it in there. Yeah. Yeah. It’s good. Strategic marketing. Smart. Smart from the board. Good play from the lads. Very smart from the boys. Nice chip, too. Yeah, it was nice little action that Oh, I thought that was going to zip for you there, mate. I’ve got the new wedges and for some reason I think they’re just going to stop dead [Laughter] and they aren’t. They’re coming out pretty similar to the old ones. Yeah, exactly the same. How often do you go new 60 now? Every couple months maybe. Oh, really? Oh my god. I mean, it’s done well for a duff, but terrible bounce. This does actually get away from you a little bit, doesn’t it? No, doesn’t. That one’s razed. Oh, mate, that’s terrible. Go on then. All right, drop her in there. I’m going to show you. You got to drop it exact same place. Oh, okay. Knee height. Yeah, right in here. Yeah, I see it. Have you played any heather on DP this year? No, only US Open Q. Walton Heath. Yeah, Walton. Yeah. Is he ever a UK thing? Hey, you get it in America, don’t you? It’s so good. What the hell? Heather’s weird, isn’t it? It’s Is that allowed? Go again. No, no, no, no. It’s drop. Drop. It’s luck of the draw, isn’t it? It was a bit aggressive. I mean, I felt like it was going to come out here. Oh, mate. That’s the same as yours. No, that’s hold. Hold. It’s pretty good, though, mate. I think the camera’s a little too close there, but that’s about 5 ft. Oh my god. I’m actually going to play this like the last one. So, so it’s going to come out good. Maybe not. It’s not done too bad, is it? It came out sideways, isn’t it? The noise on that. Like it wouldn’t have picked up. It was like just right in there. Yeah. Yeah. In the good stuff. Yeah. See, I like that. That’s a bit I felt like I could play a floppy one out there. Little open face here. H did come out floppy. But am I nicking another one there? I’m not. I think you might have got it. I think so. Yeah, you are nicking another two though. Another one. 10 10 7 10 seven. Well, you’ve gone for it. Is that how you’ve seen it or not? We What did you do? I just I just dropped it here. But I played like a little high one, landing it on top of that slope. Oh, what a lie that is. You seeing it high? Not really. No, it’s a little middy. Yeah. Like, wow. No, I did see it breaking a lot more than that. M. sometimes. That’s decent. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Nice, bro. Yeah, that’s up there. That It’s not a modern day lob wedge, is it? That’s why you can hit it out the rough, though. Sit. Just I’m missing that break, aren’t I? DJ Khaled like another one. Oh, stop dead, didn’t it? Almost. Yeah. While you’re hot, son. Oh. Oh. Oh. I mean, that’s realistic, isn’t it? Not really, but Oh. Um 1310. Well, that’s pointless. You just might as well just play from there. Yeah, but it’s nice to, you know what I mean? We’re going to Oh, okay. Yeah. Yeah. See what we get. M. What are we? 1310. 1310. Yeah. Oh, that was nice. I love that. Go in. Go in. Drop it here. Yeah. Just right. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Perfect. Inside that or I want two points. Yeah. Why should you play a touch different though? Chase out. Oh. Oh. See? Okay. This is where the old one length Diggosaurus is going to hurt him. I’m going to go extra low, extra drivey. Just guarantee some contact here. Yeah. played it well. Played it well. That might be a um that might be a block of sort. I think that’s in my divot, isn’t it? Yeah, it is. Yeah. Consistent drops. Oh. Oh. Oh no. No. I mean this this that might be a little threepiece for you. Come at a crucial point in the match. I think it is. You happy? Yeah. It’s a three three-piece for you. 1610. I paid him off, didn’t I? Earlier. It’s like make me look good. I mean, that came out with so much tumble. Oh, mate. I’ve just dropped it in your div. Huh? Just dropped it in your div. All you’ve got to do is land it. Yeah, that’s the difference. I’ve tried to make mine and I’ve just like tumbled it miles past it. Room. Hey, there’s room. Little Inoffskis. Tumblesaurus Rex. 1712. It’s game on. Let’s place it on the fringy. Yeah. Where do you see this landing? I am going to go short of this flag. Short. Yeah. All right. That’s an interesting play by you there. I felt like that was quite a Do you feel defeist attitude? Like defensive? Yeah. Like you weren’t trying to get that close. Well, I thought that was just I don’t know. Really? Yeah. top of the hill. Oh, mate, that’s a joke. That’s I’ve seen that just just past that shadow and then like checking. Maybe I’ve seen it. I feel like you don’t need It’s a bit uphill there, mate. You don’t need the drive. Yeah. Yeah. Nice. Ah, that’s how I’ve seen it. That’s big, isn’t it? Two points is big here. Oh. Oh. Sit. Sit. No. 1814. It’s kind of game on, isn’t it? Yeah. Do you know I want to see? I needed a full AI there. Really? What what do you think about a long bunker shot? How are you playing this one? Any differently? Nah. Less sand or not? Just No, not really. Just touch more. Uh, go the middle one. Sorry. Middle one. Yeah. Like long middle one. Yeah. All right. Just a touch more speed really. That’s all. I don’t know why. Like I don’t know why I’ve done it, but like garbage. I’ve put us in one of your your strong areas here. I know. Inzy bunker. Oh, mate. Go tumble. Pretty good. A lot of divot compared to you though, wasn’t it? Digosaurus, aren’t you? I am a little bit diggy. Oh, just I’d probably use 54. It’s just a bit too far, isn’t it? Yeah. Outside of like 15 20 yards, I I’ll rarely use 16 in the bunker. By the way, inside that it’s just This could be game. Yeah. Could be. Oh, it’s just like the old Digosaurus came out to play. Yeah. Just need one point. I just need one. Yeah. Usually what is it? Usually we’ll play 221, but 2016. Yeah. Scary part is though, you make one on my head. Yeah, make it. Usually we do play like you’ve got to get to 21. But I don’t know if I like that rule. Really? Makes it more fun. That I think it’s a bit corny. It is a bit but then it’s not. Um, do you want me to play these or Sure. Player does it lie sh [Music] both shots so you got something to go with here. Switch it up. Oh yeah. Do you want to see what you got to work with? Personally, I think that is picking up one. Could I think it is just going to try a little different here. Yeah, that’s nice. Do you want to move that front left one or back one? Oh, uh, not really, but got to get it inside that first one, haven’t I? or the second one. Oh, that is delightful. Really? Softest bounce ever. But you’re still alive. You just got to make it. Just got to make it. You’ve got to make this. [Music] What a bounce. I’ve just got to take that win before we get out on the course. 2217 cuz I know once we get out on the course. Probably going to be a different story, isn’t it? Let’s get it then. Three putts on this one. Three putts on that one from the same place. Um, no. We’ve got to move them, haven’t we? Okay. No, but me and you from the same place or not? Yeah. I’ll go first. You go first. I won’t look. Yeah. So, first first three full process. First three or first six putts we’re going to have no process. Just have a look. Just have a little look and hit it. All right. See how we do. And then second six putts, we’re going to run through our whole routine and see if see see if it helps. See if it helps or hurts. All right. All from like 10 15. You’re not even going to line up the ball. Just no line on these ones. All right. Just have a look. Just have a little look, Ski. Have a little look and then hit it. Yeah. I won’t look at your part to help, but didn’t go in. M. Bit aggressive, wasn’t it? Yeah, it was. Do I have to finish him off? Uh, nah, just whole on mate. Do you know what I was going to say as well? Like I saw you do a few practice strokes there. No practice strokes. Go a step further. Just nothing. Just literally like look and just hit it. Fair enough. Just so so like ingrained in your process, aren’t you? Can’t can’t get it out. Can’t get out of it. Oh, I’m not looking, am I? I saw it take off. Wow. That’s O from two. Oh. Oh, from two. You go first this time. Huh? You go first. 0 from three. O for three. You got any T’s? Yeah. Do you want to put another three out there? Maybe on a different Maybe from three. Can we get one? No. Come on then, son. Roll it in. Oh, I’ve just watched it. I couldn’t really see a line. By the way, I like how positive we’re being with these. What? Getting it past the hole. Yeah. Glad you are. I’ve had two short. Oh. Oh, no. I haven’t. Just one. I’ve been three, four, five feet by Sean. What’s the um what’s the make? It’s actually two out of the six, isn’t it? That’s above tour average, right? Yeah, I suppose. Two two. Yeah, two out of the six, isn’t it? Well, I’ve got to hold these, too. watching bins one. Come on. I had a feeling. I had a funny feeling. One look. No practice strokes. You’ve definitely just hit that dead straight, didn’t you? Goes a little left, son. Did you do you just instinctively feel that or Well, I must have done something right. It went in the middle. Oh, I’m 0 and five. Come on. I’ve got to get on the positive side. Got to get one. Got to get one put. That’s two, baby. Oh my god. So, tour average then. Bang. You said we needed two. Came and cut. Laid them. Mate, on an absolute bagel effort, you’ve left it short. Right. So, I’m 0 and six. You’re two. Well, no. So, you you didn’t hold any without any process. I hold two with no process. Yeah. Now, so now you you’re just against yourself. I’ve got to make one. Yeah. With your with all process, you’ve got to make one, which I think you’ve got a good chance. Yeah. I think so. Do you know the one thing that was most impactful when I saw Jamie was the uh when you don’t feel a lot, it’s probably cuz there ain’t a lot. And like I’m always like trying to look for something. Yeah. I don’t feel it. It’s probably not there, is it? Probably not, mate. Dead straight. Oh, I mean, I’m already better than last time. What you playing these at? 9 10? Uh, about 4 feet. Too slow. Yeah, I reckon they’re rolling a nice 10, aren’t they? Yeah, I think so. At least. I was absolute horn dog for that one. It’s just pace, wasn’t it? Really? What do you have that at? I had it at a5, but then over it I thought it’s got to be pretty firm. Yeah, it was to go. I think that was a 15. You had it as 15. I think so. Yeah. Damn. Don’t know how yours went straight. Definitely left to right. Probably pulled it, didn’t I? Yeah. 100%. Over three. Oh, mate, that’s such a bad read. Do you know I didn’t I didn’t go through the process there. I just kind of Mate, that’s what you got to stick to the process on. Got to stick to it. That’s Yeah. Saw something. Didn’t see anything. Yeah. I’ll do the first two with you and then I’ll move it for the for the finale. Little Rolex TE’s from from the old went was it? Yeah. Can’t afford a Rolex, but I can have got Rolex T’s. M pace got two. I can see why you’ve played it right. But yeah, I can I feel why you always do two two reads on every putt from like 15 ft. Yeah, you will. First, third, second, third, isn’t it? You won’t go just halfway. No. What what footage do you have to just do halfway? Is that like inside six feet? Yeah, but I’ve started doing two anyway. What? Even six foot? Yeah. Oh, really? Wow. Just in case. M I’m going to hold the last two again, aren’t I? Yeah. Oh yeah, I’m one for five on this set. This is to tie up your no process. I ain’t watching. Oh my gosh. Want to see the replay of that. Was that dirty? Do you know one thing I’ve been working on? So keeping my head down a bit. What? Like I get a little bit like this. Like a little lookie. I do. I sneak it up. Getting excited to see it. Yeah. What? So you’re like So I’m really focusing on like keeping up watching that ball roll off. Right. What? And then then looking up. Do you listen to it or not? If it’s close. Yeah. But it’s really hard for me cuz I’m so used to like looking really quickly. Yeah. Wow, that is a dreadful I thought it was maybe. I mean, at least I was close. So, what what’s the moral of that story then? What do we learn? Well, I have I’ve old one. So, have I So, I should just walk up to him and look at them like this. It is interesting though, isn’t it? Maybe not. It is interesting. I know. Obviously, there’s nothing on the line, but I would rather have a look and have a learn than just hit it, wouldn’t you? But I think it’s like it’s interesting to know that you you’re pretty pretty good just doing it as well. True.

You "that looked heavy but it weren't" BRT "I'm mean it's 12 foot short…but…" brilliant. He doesn't over analyse at all does he. It's look and go.

*The Golf Swing: Think of Chopping Wood*
Ben Hogan always said: use both hands. But the hidden truth in golf is this — what people don’t say is more important than what they do.
Most beginners step up with an idea in their head, then try to smash the ball. The result? A mess — topped shots, slices, whiffs. That’s because the body hasn’t learned the correct motion yet. So let’s train the move first, no ball needed.
*Step 1: Chop Straight Down*
Picture holding an axe with two hands. Chop straight down into the log. Feel how your whole body drives that move. That’s your foundation.
*Step 2: Chop the Side of the Log*
Now chop the right side of the log. That’s basically your current golf swing: hands working alone, body out of sync.
*Step 3: Slide Through the Front*
Here’s the magic. We’re going to bring the axe through the front of the log. To make that happen, adjust your grip at the very start of the downswing:
* Make a *small move* to set the swing.
* Right hand: don’t squeeze with your fingers. Let the club rest in your palm, wrist locked.
* Grip pressure: **Level 1 out of 10**. Barely holding it.
With that palm locked, your arms move together, and your body naturally turns. At impact, you’ll find yourself fully behind the ball. The locked palm keeps everything steady, and the club path shifts into a natural inside-out strike.
*Training Drill*
Forget the ball for now. Grab a broomstick (pull the head off). Go out back and swing it like you’re chopping wood — hard, fast, again and again. Train your body to feel the move. Once that becomes natural, then pick up a club.
"Ro Un LEE" vidoes for how to increase CORE BODY SPEED using sticks.
I prefer people use a Impact Golf Swing Training Bag. Need to learn check swing and abrupt stop
We do not want our body move front instead up after impact. Left side up. So this help body pose.
Enjoyed watching BRT at the Irish Open. Great player. Great little tache and goate combo too
Is this Parkstone?
Put your divots back
Love when you guys get together for content. Very natural and a lot of high standard practices. The best. Thanks
