It is true that 1) current-year clubs play only slightly better than 5-year clubs; and 2) good players can play well with 20-year old clubs. That being said, current-year clubs are way more forgiving than 20-year old clubs. The higher your handicap the more current-year clubs will help you. Part of every golfer is a desire to play well and hit good shots (relative to the reality of our game) and beat our friends. And we all like new, shiny toys. So even though I could do the Golf Bidder challenge and get clubs for $500 I spend more for newer, nicer clubs. And relative to other sports a $500 set of clubs and $50 green fee is still a lot more than a $75 pickleball paddle and free play at the park courts.
Remember that the LIV was in Adelaide and us Aussies love sport and beer
Really help with my long irons. I not hitting too high now. My home course has allot of wind so I don’t need high shot much, especially for my 3,4 and 5 irons.
You do not look like Ryan 😂 you are in fact Robs bloody doppelgänger. He’s still a good looking bloke though so 👍😁👍
Blah. The players have a good time because there’s less competition. It doesn’t matter if they win or lose-they’ve already been paid. You need to play well in PGA to get paid. It means more.
Really missing an opportunity to get a full bag fit with Ian at TXG! Great content opportunity and top notch knowledge/skill brand agnostic fitting. Play some break 75s at some local courses that have hosted Canadian Open events… C'mon Rick make it happen!!🙏🙏
Any plans to come to South Africa?
I think the question about golf becoming more expensive and inaccessible is valid. In my area, due to the boost in popularity since covid, the courses have raised their prices and are still booked up.
And the club price increases has effected used club prices as well. Everything is more expensive since before covid.
Let me tell you since moving from Boro to Adelaide 10 years ago I've done the Pres Cup,British Opens and Aus Open and various other tourneys. LIV Adelaide by a huge stretch was the best atmosphere I've ever witnessed.
Can't wait till next year. Also fist pumped all the big names , best 3 days .
I’m already a convert because I like lots of the names in LIV, the good time it looks like and that team aspect is interesting. Another element makes me watch something extra to keep my focus.
Hi Rick and Guy, I just love watching and listening to your golf videos and podcasts.
As an avid watcher of everything you do, l have a couple of suggestion.
1. Is it possible to categories the golf videos so it would be easier to find a particular type of video when looking through the back catalogue on the channel. ie videos with golf pro's, golf tips, equipment reviews etc.
2. As an average golfer myself (16.1 handicap) and l am sure the majority of your subscribers fall into that category, would you consider doing more golf videos with amatrue golfers, possibly a 4BBB match play format ?
Keep up the great work and looking forward to your next video.
Kind Regards
Nigel.
Do you fancy doing Pastures at Mickleover again, maybe bring some other presenters who may fancy a go at the course record?
Just on LIV , great to see but Australia has seen its tour fall over as players left to the American tour. Let’s hope the support it got here is mirrored in all country’s . I note the BBC appeared to make it easier to find the local fourball results than LIV.
I struggle with the team names …
In Australia the players liked the enthusiasm..but security was an issue …one pissed idiot gets that close and ?
Tiger (2000-05) was the closest to perfection in golf and he'll tell you, he was way off. 🤣 Golf is tough because there are so many skills to master.
As for equipment? Equipment has got way more expensive, but that is the same with other sports. Covid definitely gave golf a boost.
No podcast for two weeks? Am i missing something?
Sorry, Rick, but there is NO justification for supporting LIV golf. First, the Saudi government (just google MBS, and you get the picture); second, all the players say they are thinking of their families. Let’s just think about this for a moment – in the main, they have all made a fortune out of golf, and the environment provided by the PGA; they have done this simply for the money, and they look stunned when asked about the ethics of contracting with the Saudis; and where’s the concept in putting back into the organisation which has made them rich? What a miserable bunch.
Why does having a good time= getting drunk? No wonder there’s so many alcoholics these days. why all of a sudden does it need to be like a day out at the ally pally!
I saw your video with golf girls and you're an amazing coach. You should instruct for more youtubers. We can tell your passion is real when you coach. Keep the great videos coming Coach Rick! Cheers!
A Ryan Reynolds built for comfort …. I can see that 😅
