00:00:30.160 --> 00:00:32.039
You start trying to take a picture when you make

9
00:00:32.079 --> 00:00:34.119
your golf cleen what that part it is? And when

10
00:00:34.119 --> 00:00:36.039
you can't do it, it's because it won't happen. You

11
00:00:36.039 --> 00:00:38.719
had early palm wine. You're cringing the club that happened,

12
00:00:38.759 --> 00:00:39.960
And then you want to why I don't make your

13
00:00:40.039 --> 00:00:42.359
golf One for a kind of gotigator talking about will

14
00:00:42.399 --> 00:00:45.079
president not be the redult orient and we're talking about

15
00:00:45.200 --> 00:00:47.359
doing at a golf what called OFWF What it is? You're

16
00:00:47.359 --> 00:00:49.399
outside with friend or people you like to at least

17
00:00:49.399 --> 00:00:52.159
be around. You're at a park. Basically, you've got land

18
00:00:52.200 --> 00:00:55.399
set aside that is free of course, about a beautiful bird,

19
00:00:55.679 --> 00:00:59.119
water ducks, all the beautiful bad and you got.

20
00:00:58.920 --> 00:01:01.079
This picture app years that you can look at.

21
00:01:01.079 --> 00:01:03.399
And I'm saying you just start looking at them, because

22
00:01:03.439 --> 00:01:05.439
everybody looks down at the grown into the white ball,

23
00:01:05.599 --> 00:01:07.760
and then that's the frustraction. I'm saying. You look up

24
00:01:07.879 --> 00:01:09.760
and find the party and set that in your mind

25
00:01:09.879 --> 00:01:12.239
and then enjoying the times and then you start feeling

26
00:01:12.319 --> 00:01:14.280
like having a good time on the golf course, and

27
00:01:14.359 --> 00:01:16.680
then you can say I'm a good golfer and your

28
00:01:16.719 --> 00:01:19.359
score nor reflected. But it won't be in the score.

29
00:01:19.439 --> 00:01:21.120
That won't be while you know you're parent, you know

30
00:01:21.200 --> 00:01:23.239
you're good, and you enjoy the time. Spin out there

31

36
00:01:41.280 --> 00:01:42.000
Where are you.

37
00:01:43.760 --> 00:01:47.519
Right now? I am between Campbellsville and Bowling Greens and

38
00:01:47.640 --> 00:01:52.359
Punty and it's just going down to talk a little

39
00:01:52.359 --> 00:01:55.159
bit about a target, owning your golf and a point

40
00:01:55.239 --> 00:02:01.680
golf and a way to communicate and nation to the player.

41
00:02:01.760 --> 00:02:04.959
Right now. You know, I caddy, So my brother intent

42
00:02:05.040 --> 00:02:07.519
parking and instructor at Oldstone and I'm heading out the

43
00:02:07.560 --> 00:02:10.439
Oldstone Country Club and goinger into.

44
00:02:10.360 --> 00:02:13.479
Customs and how much of your life has spent on

45
00:02:13.599 --> 00:02:13.960
the road.

46
00:02:16.280 --> 00:02:21.120
A great amount. I travel just with word about thirty

47
00:02:21.199 --> 00:02:23.680
weeks plus the Ninus a few weeks, about thirty weeks

48
00:02:24.439 --> 00:02:27.800
with the tour events, and then while I'm home sometimes

49
00:02:27.879 --> 00:02:30.199
I scheduled some time like today to try to, you know,

50
00:02:30.439 --> 00:02:35.439
just advance my learning in regards to golf. So I'm

51
00:02:35.520 --> 00:02:37.879
using I've got a few days here before the British Open,

52
00:02:37.919 --> 00:02:39.919
and I'm just using this time to try to to

53
00:02:40.000 --> 00:02:46.319
brush up on some things, just green oriented, just just

54
00:02:46.439 --> 00:02:49.080
reading green, trying to get a few more puts to

55
00:02:49.120 --> 00:02:49.400
fall in.

56
00:02:49.759 --> 00:02:53.039
Okay, well, we'll definitely talk about aime point putting. And

57
00:02:53.960 --> 00:02:58.080
because Colin Cromac was on the on the show just

58
00:02:58.159 --> 00:03:01.159
a few weeks ago talking about tour target oriented golf,

59
00:03:01.479 --> 00:03:03.439
that's how you and I got together. So I'm going

60
00:03:03.520 --> 00:03:06.039
to want to focus and talk a lot about target

61
00:03:06.080 --> 00:03:09.400
oriented golf from your perspective. But if you don't mind

62
00:03:09.439 --> 00:03:13.400
me asking, I'm just fascinated you were You've been on

63
00:03:13.599 --> 00:03:19.319
the tour this year with JB Holmes and caddying catting

64
00:03:19.400 --> 00:03:21.800
for him. Is this your first year caddying for JB?

65
00:03:23.120 --> 00:03:25.879
Now? I started cattying in two thousand and eight, so

66
00:03:26.400 --> 00:03:29.560
I had caddy for JB. And just like we grew

67
00:03:29.639 --> 00:03:32.879
up playing golf together and sometimes we would take turns

68
00:03:32.960 --> 00:03:36.039
catting for each other. So we very much know each

69
00:03:36.039 --> 00:03:37.960
other's games. And he had me come out just to

70
00:03:38.080 --> 00:03:40.759
a couple of random tour events. I think it was

71
00:03:40.800 --> 00:03:43.800
a fun I in Florida when he was on tour

72
00:03:44.800 --> 00:03:47.599
and like oh six and I started full time.

73
00:03:47.479 --> 00:03:51.199
In eight and we really enjoyed it. I had quite

74
00:03:51.199 --> 00:03:51.840
a bit of success.

75
00:03:53.199 --> 00:03:56.199
I took some time to play in two thousand, late

76
00:03:56.280 --> 00:04:00.319
twenty twelve, first part twenty thirteen, and then he asked

77
00:04:00.400 --> 00:04:02.680
me to come back. So it's happy to come back

78
00:04:03.159 --> 00:04:05.159
get back to work with him. We've had a great

79
00:04:05.199 --> 00:04:07.479
year to about fourteen. I think he's made just over

80
00:04:07.879 --> 00:04:08.719
two million dollars.

81
00:04:09.000 --> 00:04:11.879
So yeah, the last time I checked, it looked like

82
00:04:11.960 --> 00:04:14.319
it was just over two million dollars. And you still

83
00:04:14.479 --> 00:04:16.800
have quite a way to go in the season.

84
00:04:18.519 --> 00:04:21.560
Yeah, we still have quite a season left, so we're

85
00:04:21.639 --> 00:04:25.920
just trying to cone in on little ways to get better.

86
00:04:26.040 --> 00:04:29.000
Some things we can do. Even at this level, it's.

87
00:04:28.920 --> 00:04:30.720
Great to always feel like you can get a little

88
00:04:30.720 --> 00:04:32.839
bit better. And I think that's what draws us to golf,

89
00:04:33.279 --> 00:04:35.839
you know. I mean, even if you go out and

90
00:04:35.879 --> 00:04:38.399
shoot eighteen under, there was still you're like, man, that

91
00:04:38.519 --> 00:04:40.759
one left on the edge. Maybe it was for a

92
00:04:40.800 --> 00:04:42.639
hole in one, but that's that's crazy. That's what the

93
00:04:42.720 --> 00:04:43.199
mind does.

94
00:04:43.319 --> 00:04:45.079
You know, you never seem to be happy.

95
00:04:45.199 --> 00:04:48.120
Feel like you can strive for just to get a

96
00:04:48.120 --> 00:04:50.480
little better, and perfection never happens.

97
00:04:51.000 --> 00:04:51.720
It's amazing.

98
00:04:52.160 --> 00:04:55.040
Yeah, I've never met let me take that back. I've

99
00:04:55.160 --> 00:04:58.120
met one golfer in my life that said he was

100
00:04:58.160 --> 00:05:00.959
a good golfer. I've never met anybody say are you

101
00:05:00.959 --> 00:05:06.319
a golfer? Like I'm okay, you know, but you know,

102
00:05:06.519 --> 00:05:09.680
at my barber, he's like, oh yeah, I'm good, I'm

103
00:05:09.720 --> 00:05:10.319
a good golfer.

104
00:05:10.399 --> 00:05:10.600
Yeah.

105
00:05:10.800 --> 00:05:14.680
Like really, I've never heard anybody say that before. It's

106
00:05:14.800 --> 00:05:15.480
really amazing.

107
00:05:15.800 --> 00:05:17.279
But like you see, and then you want to you

108
00:05:17.319 --> 00:05:19.240
want to go play with your barber and see what

109
00:05:19.439 --> 00:05:20.920
he thinks is good, you know what I mean?

110
00:05:21.040 --> 00:05:23.560
Because a different level, I have.

111
00:05:23.839 --> 00:05:25.920
No interest in playing with this guy because I don't

112
00:05:25.920 --> 00:05:28.519
want him to start giving me lessons on the course.

113
00:05:28.759 --> 00:05:30.639
I just have a feeling he's going to start telling

114
00:05:30.720 --> 00:05:33.160
me what I'm doing wrong, and I have no interest

115
00:05:33.240 --> 00:05:38.600
in that whatsoever. I understand, But but it's like, you know,

116
00:05:38.800 --> 00:05:41.279
you you you go out and play with somebody and

117
00:05:41.680 --> 00:05:44.519
they say, so, are you a good golfer? I'm like, yeah,

118
00:05:44.600 --> 00:05:46.680
you know, I'm okay, I'm shooting in the you know,

119
00:05:46.759 --> 00:05:49.160
the mid eighties right now, Like wow, you're really good,

120
00:05:49.279 --> 00:05:52.720
and it's like, you know, but then if you you know,

121
00:05:52.879 --> 00:05:56.480
from his perspective, I always kind of see shooting in

122
00:05:56.560 --> 00:06:00.720
the eighties is kind of like turning sixty, you know. Uh,

123
00:06:01.079 --> 00:06:04.680
it's when you're sixty year old to young people and

124
00:06:04.759 --> 00:06:06.160
you're young to old people.

125
00:06:07.600 --> 00:06:11.319
Right. Yeah, well I'm starting to know again. I mean,

126
00:06:11.879 --> 00:06:13.560
if you want to get away from score, I'm just

127
00:06:13.639 --> 00:06:16.519
starting to notice that. I would call anyone that can

128
00:06:16.879 --> 00:06:20.399
be on the golf course and hitting shots and playing

129
00:06:20.439 --> 00:06:23.759
and keeping score if it looks like they're enjoying it,

130
00:06:24.240 --> 00:06:26.680
so you see them smiling, I would call them a

131
00:06:26.759 --> 00:06:29.639
good golfer. Somehow they've managed to hear you're keeping score

132
00:06:29.759 --> 00:06:31.720
and obviously you're not going to hit a perfect shot

133
00:06:31.759 --> 00:06:34.680
every time, so you deal with the frustration in a

134
00:06:34.759 --> 00:06:37.079
happy way. So anybody that can do that, in my mind,

135
00:06:37.240 --> 00:06:39.160
i'm you know, I'm starting to because that's the guys

136
00:06:39.800 --> 00:06:42.720
you know at programs and even on the tour where

137
00:06:42.759 --> 00:06:44.639
it just looks like they're not enjoying it like while

138
00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:47.319
you know, like while the understanding of that this is

139
00:06:47.360 --> 00:06:47.680
a game.

140
00:06:48.519 --> 00:06:52.439
So I love that, I think along with h Yeah,

141
00:06:52.480 --> 00:06:53.000
if he's.

142
00:06:52.959 --> 00:06:55.240
Present and just seeing the golf course and that gets

143
00:06:55.279 --> 00:06:57.120
us back again to the targeting or the golf.

144
00:06:57.360 --> 00:06:58.399
Yeah, no, I like that.

145
00:06:58.560 --> 00:07:00.879
It's like if you think you're if you're having fun,

146
00:07:00.959 --> 00:07:01.920
then you're a good golfer.

147
00:07:02.839 --> 00:07:04.879
Why not my little.

148
00:07:04.720 --> 00:07:07.680
Boy, I don't know. He's five and we go out

149
00:07:07.720 --> 00:07:09.279
and he sees everything you know out there in the

150
00:07:09.319 --> 00:07:09.720
golf work.

151
00:07:09.759 --> 00:07:11.079
He has a black Yeah.

152
00:07:11.240 --> 00:07:14.480
I mean he shoots one hundred and fifty if you

153
00:07:14.560 --> 00:07:16.079
ask him, So he's a good golfer.

154
00:07:18.360 --> 00:07:21.240
Oh, I didn't realize. You've got you've got a five

155
00:07:21.360 --> 00:07:23.319
year old and you're on the road thirty weeks a year.

156
00:07:23.879 --> 00:07:25.160
That's got to be tough.

157
00:07:26.600 --> 00:07:28.920
Yeah, that cannot with me. Just when we can make

158
00:07:28.959 --> 00:07:29.360
it happen.

159
00:07:29.480 --> 00:07:34.439
But my wife is very supportive and it's been it's

160
00:07:34.480 --> 00:07:36.319
been a really good ride.

161
00:07:36.399 --> 00:07:36.560
You know.

162
00:07:36.920 --> 00:07:41.120
Yeah, Well, when when the guy you're working for is

163
00:07:41.480 --> 00:07:44.079
generating over two million dollars, you know, part the way

164
00:07:44.120 --> 00:07:46.800
through the season. Yeah, I think you should be supportive.

165
00:07:47.399 --> 00:07:49.519
I think she realized you're having.

166
00:07:49.360 --> 00:07:51.480
Fun, but she realizes.

167
00:07:51.720 --> 00:07:54.680
You know, I'm lucky enough that I really love golf.

168
00:07:55.079 --> 00:07:58.759
I love gathering more information and learning, and that's what,

169
00:07:59.079 --> 00:08:01.079
you know, Golf is my motivation. You get to do that,

170
00:08:01.399 --> 00:08:04.000
and you know I take walks every day. We're out

171
00:08:04.079 --> 00:08:05.800
on the course for four four and a half hours

172
00:08:05.879 --> 00:08:08.439
with with my best buddy. You know, so it's.

173
00:08:09.879 --> 00:08:12.240
It's it's well, your best buddy.

174
00:08:12.480 --> 00:08:15.399
This year, yeah, this year, his winnings. You know, we

175
00:08:15.600 --> 00:08:19.160
we've we've talked about enough. But he's had some tough

176
00:08:19.240 --> 00:08:21.319
years the last couple of years too. He wasn't even

177
00:08:22.279 --> 00:08:24.720
did he not even get to compete for a while.

178
00:08:24.800 --> 00:08:26.160
He had some tough time.

179
00:08:26.319 --> 00:08:29.439
Yeah, Yeah, he had he had some surgery just the

180
00:08:29.560 --> 00:08:32.200
ki mountformation, so he had some skull removed which was

181
00:08:32.320 --> 00:08:35.399
very scary. Oh and then uh, he had a rollerblading

182
00:08:35.440 --> 00:08:37.879
accident and broken ankle and then he's had some surgery

183
00:08:37.960 --> 00:08:41.240
on his elbow and it's amazing. But again he used

184
00:08:41.279 --> 00:08:44.440
it as a motivation just to say, Okay, I'm gonna

185
00:08:44.480 --> 00:08:46.080
work out. I'm going to overcome all these things, and

186
00:08:46.159 --> 00:08:47.840
he's kind of out and want to get on tour.

187
00:08:47.840 --> 00:08:49.240
And I'm you know, I'm very proud of him.

188
00:08:49.759 --> 00:08:52.559
I would think, well, being an old friend of his,

189
00:08:52.799 --> 00:08:55.399
have you guys grew up playing together and competing against

190
00:08:55.480 --> 00:08:59.960
one another. I got to imagine, and as as a cat,

191
00:09:00.279 --> 00:09:02.080
I've got to imagine there's been a lot of pep

192
00:09:02.159 --> 00:09:05.440
talks that come from you to get him back on track.

193
00:09:07.200 --> 00:09:12.519
Yeah, just you know more, it's just like, you know,

194
00:09:12.600 --> 00:09:15.120
you just wanted to hang in there because golf, like

195
00:09:15.240 --> 00:09:18.080
we just talked about, and very frustrating. So we're just

196
00:09:18.159 --> 00:09:20.159
trying to get back to the enjoyment and while we

197
00:09:20.240 --> 00:09:23.120
love golf and just every day, you know, just try

198
00:09:23.159 --> 00:09:26.480
to see the golf course and just noticing just little things.

199
00:09:26.600 --> 00:09:30.120
You know, you can play golf for a long time

200
00:09:30.200 --> 00:09:32.679
and never noticed that there are any birds chirping on

201
00:09:32.759 --> 00:09:36.759
the golf course today, You've not heard any for four years,

202
00:09:36.799 --> 00:09:38.759
and maybe you start hearing those, you know, you're on

203
00:09:38.799 --> 00:09:40.039
the right tranck if that may soon.

204
00:09:40.480 --> 00:09:45.000
Yeah, I've had a new discovery just recently. Two of

205
00:09:45.039 --> 00:09:47.559
the golf courses that I play in the county I

206
00:09:47.679 --> 00:09:49.960
live in are dog friendly. Golf courses.

207
00:09:50.919 --> 00:09:51.440
That's cool.

208
00:09:51.840 --> 00:09:54.440
And so I have I have a little dog. I

209
00:09:54.519 --> 00:09:59.200
mean she's only about seventeen pounds, but she has been

210
00:09:59.279 --> 00:10:02.480
out with me four times now, and I'm like, look,

211
00:10:02.519 --> 00:10:03.879
if I'm gonna have to take my dog for a

212
00:10:03.919 --> 00:10:06.159
walk and I walk the golf course, why don't I

213
00:10:06.240 --> 00:10:09.879
just bring the dog. And she's been awesome. And the

214
00:10:10.039 --> 00:10:12.320
friends that I play with like when I bring her out,

215
00:10:12.360 --> 00:10:15.840
They're like, really, you're bringing your dog. And by the

216
00:10:15.960 --> 00:10:18.759
end of the round they were so happy that she

217
00:10:18.960 --> 00:10:23.000
was there because she's got this calming thing about her.

218
00:10:23.120 --> 00:10:23.240
You know.

219
00:10:23.320 --> 00:10:25.440
It's like when you're feeling frustrated stuff, you go over

220
00:10:25.519 --> 00:10:27.639
and you snuggle and pet with the dog and you

221
00:10:27.759 --> 00:10:28.320
feel great.

222
00:10:29.600 --> 00:10:32.080
Yeah, dog doesn't Your dog doesn't care if you know,

223
00:10:32.159 --> 00:10:33.919
if he cop a shot or hit it in the woods,

224
00:10:34.080 --> 00:10:36.200
or if you burnied a hole you never made burnie

225
00:10:36.200 --> 00:10:39.559
on before, hit your longest drive. I mean, she's enjoying

226
00:10:39.639 --> 00:10:42.360
being It's like a park to dog, you know. So

227
00:10:42.480 --> 00:10:44.879
she's enjoying that experience from that point of view, which

228
00:10:44.919 --> 00:10:46.639
is what we should be doing. You know. I think

229
00:10:47.360 --> 00:10:49.759
we forget some time to get attached to the results

230
00:10:49.799 --> 00:10:50.240
and everything.

231
00:10:50.559 --> 00:10:53.240
Yeah, well, I think that's maybe an episode will be Yeah,

232
00:10:53.279 --> 00:10:55.360
we'll be That's an episode we're going to be doing soon.

233
00:10:55.559 --> 00:10:57.600
Is how what your dog could teach you on the

234
00:10:57.639 --> 00:10:58.320
golf course.

235
00:10:59.559 --> 00:11:01.200
That's very good, very good.

236
00:11:02.480 --> 00:11:04.279
But if you ever get the chance to take a

237
00:11:04.360 --> 00:11:05.960
dog out with it, you got to give it a try.

238
00:11:06.080 --> 00:11:11.120
It's really a lot of oh you have yeah, oh yeah, yeah,

239
00:11:11.120 --> 00:11:11.480
I love.

240
00:11:11.639 --> 00:11:13.399
I had a black lab growing up, and we took

241
00:11:13.480 --> 00:11:16.000
him to the golf course some and their experiences just

242
00:11:16.919 --> 00:11:21.320
really opened your eyes, you know differently, you really do.

243
00:11:21.720 --> 00:11:24.279
But I live next to a golf course and on

244
00:11:24.960 --> 00:11:31.240
July fourth Holiday, just recently, somebody who lives on my

245
00:11:31.360 --> 00:11:34.559
block had company over and brought their dog with them,

246
00:11:34.639 --> 00:11:37.159
and the dog jumped over the fence onto the golf

247
00:11:37.240 --> 00:11:39.919
course and the dog and these guys are looking around like,

248
00:11:39.919 --> 00:11:42.039
who's that? Wait a minute, what is this dog doing here?

249
00:11:42.399 --> 00:11:45.360
You can see these golfers were so frustrated, and the

250
00:11:45.519 --> 00:11:48.919
dog was one of those hurting shepherds and was having

251
00:11:49.000 --> 00:11:51.039
so much fun. But every time a guy would take

252
00:11:51.080 --> 00:11:54.399
a shot, the dog would run down the fairway, pick

253
00:11:54.480 --> 00:11:59.200
up the ball and bring it back. You could imagine

254
00:11:59.200 --> 00:12:02.240
what this, yeah, you can imagine these these country club

255
00:12:02.320 --> 00:12:05.080
guys who just play the same course over and over

256
00:12:05.200 --> 00:12:08.120
again and play the same shot, and play the same

257
00:12:08.240 --> 00:12:10.120
club at the same tea box and hit it in

258
00:12:10.159 --> 00:12:12.519
the same bunker every time, and they never changed their

259
00:12:12.559 --> 00:12:15.720
game with something like that really rattled their cage.

260
00:12:15.759 --> 00:12:18.240
It was very funny to watch exactly.

261
00:12:18.559 --> 00:12:24.399
It's two opposite energies flipping. You know. Dogger is just

262
00:12:24.519 --> 00:12:28.720
all all blah. And you got people that you know, like,

263
00:12:28.960 --> 00:12:33.440
like you just said, play the same game. They play

264
00:12:33.519 --> 00:12:36.840
the same course, and it's like they've never thought, well,

265
00:12:36.879 --> 00:12:40.559
you know, is it good? I always I'm always long

266
00:12:40.600 --> 00:12:44.399
as this screen and it's terrible back there. It's all downhill,

267
00:12:44.600 --> 00:12:46.720
or you know, I never I don't like that ship.

268
00:12:46.840 --> 00:12:48.600
I wonder why they don't just hit a different club

269
00:12:48.679 --> 00:12:51.399
to a different spot and or go look and see

270
00:12:51.399 --> 00:12:52.200
where the good spot is.

271
00:12:58.440 --> 00:13:02.639
Recently, Dave Stock and we had a really great conversation

272
00:13:02.799 --> 00:13:06.080
and he talked about how he took two clubs with

273
00:13:06.279 --> 00:13:09.720
him to every shot. He would never decide just based

274
00:13:09.759 --> 00:13:11.960
on the yardage. He would take two different clubs and

275
00:13:12.120 --> 00:13:14.039
decide for him it was is it a high shot

276
00:13:14.159 --> 00:13:17.159
or a low shot? And he didn't make any decision

277
00:13:17.200 --> 00:13:19.759
until he was standing behind the ball and assessing exactly

278
00:13:19.840 --> 00:13:22.679
what he needed to accomplish before he decided which club

279
00:13:22.720 --> 00:13:27.200
to hit. Yeah, which was a huge lesson for me.

280
00:13:27.960 --> 00:13:29.919
The main thing when I took away from him, it

281
00:13:30.000 --> 00:13:32.600
is just using your imagination. Sure I can talk about

282
00:13:32.720 --> 00:13:35.000
with where you want your ball to be, just using

283
00:13:35.039 --> 00:13:38.360
your imagination more and seeing he takes two clubs because

284
00:13:38.360 --> 00:13:41.039
he's playing with the trajectory. So he just would rather

285
00:13:41.399 --> 00:13:44.879
instead of trying to deloss a sixty degree. Everybody uses

286
00:13:44.919 --> 00:13:46.840
a sixty degree now at team, So instead of trying

287
00:13:46.840 --> 00:13:49.519
to deloss that and force the club into doing a

288
00:13:49.559 --> 00:13:51.960
shot it's not really built for, he would just switch

289
00:13:52.000 --> 00:13:54.120
to a fifty six or fifty four or nine iron

290
00:13:54.360 --> 00:13:56.000
and then he can keep it. He can keep his

291
00:13:56.120 --> 00:13:58.519
body or his technique if you will, whatever you want

292
00:13:58.559 --> 00:14:00.759
to call that. He doesn't have to channel, can just

293
00:14:00.879 --> 00:14:03.679
change the tool to match the trajectory that he has

294
00:14:03.759 --> 00:14:07.480
in his imagination. You know which You're awesome? Right?

295
00:14:09.039 --> 00:14:09.759
Spectacular?

296
00:14:12.320 --> 00:14:12.519
Well?

297
00:14:12.960 --> 00:14:15.360
If do you when you're when you're traveling, So now

298
00:14:15.440 --> 00:14:19.759
you're traveling by car, but during in between tournaments and stuff,

299
00:14:19.840 --> 00:14:21.399
you're flying with JB all the time.

300
00:14:21.480 --> 00:14:25.200
Though right now we fly, we travel separately, So it's

301
00:14:25.240 --> 00:14:27.320
an hour. If I can, it's I can work it

302
00:14:27.360 --> 00:14:30.480
out so that I can get home, because if I

303
00:14:30.519 --> 00:14:32.720
can drive, then I have more freedom, you know, if

304
00:14:32.720 --> 00:14:35.039
I'll have to wait on a flight or rush to

305
00:14:35.159 --> 00:14:38.559
a flight. I just felt like I don't like the

306
00:14:38.639 --> 00:14:41.320
experience really going through airports and you're having to be

307
00:14:41.440 --> 00:14:43.679
somewhere at a certain time. So if if I can drive,

308
00:14:43.759 --> 00:14:46.600
its ten hours away. It just depending on, you know,

309
00:14:46.600 --> 00:14:48.159
if we're going to be four weeks in a row.

310
00:14:48.960 --> 00:14:50.480
If we're going to be four in a row, I'll fly.

311
00:14:51.080 --> 00:14:52.720
But if I can, if I can find a way

312
00:14:52.759 --> 00:14:57.039
to drive, I try to drive, but we fly separately.

313
00:14:59.279 --> 00:15:01.200
We're gonna fly to the British Open. We are going

314
00:15:01.279 --> 00:15:02.000
to do that together.

315
00:15:03.120 --> 00:15:07.399
Then we'll come home, be home a week, and then

316
00:15:07.879 --> 00:15:10.320
we'll be heading to Acron for.

317
00:15:10.480 --> 00:15:13.320
The Firestone and then the PGA, and then we'll get

318
00:15:13.360 --> 00:15:16.080
ready for the playoffs and we'll do several in a

319
00:15:16.159 --> 00:15:17.000
row in the playoffs.

320
00:15:17.240 --> 00:15:20.120
So looking forward to to all those events.

321
00:15:20.360 --> 00:15:22.639
Yeah, I bet good luck on those. When now, when

322
00:15:22.679 --> 00:15:24.960
you say you when you fly separately, do you mean

323
00:15:25.080 --> 00:15:27.240
he flies first class and you fly coach or he

324
00:15:27.320 --> 00:15:31.360
flies charter and you fly commercial or you take different planes.

325
00:15:32.399 --> 00:15:36.960
Yeah, different, we're on different airplanes usually because why I'm flying,

326
00:15:38.279 --> 00:15:41.919
I'm flying home, or maybe you have scheduled a different flight.

327
00:15:42.039 --> 00:15:46.080
We're just seat responsible for our own travel, you know. Now,

328
00:15:46.279 --> 00:15:49.159
there there are times like he did have a deal

329
00:15:49.200 --> 00:15:49.399
in the.

330
00:15:49.440 --> 00:15:51.679
Past where maybe he has the private planes.

331
00:15:51.879 --> 00:15:53.919
I mean, if he's flying privately or something like that,

332
00:15:54.480 --> 00:15:56.799
he's taking me along, and you know, I'm grateful for that.

333
00:15:56.919 --> 00:15:57.399
It's awful.

334
00:15:57.919 --> 00:16:03.039
It's just a matter of schedule. We just schedule, schedule

335
00:16:03.360 --> 00:16:06.399
our own flights. And here recently he's been flying just

336
00:16:07.639 --> 00:16:10.600
commercial a lot more so hm hmm.

337
00:16:11.399 --> 00:16:13.399
Do you listen to audio books when you're on the

338
00:16:13.480 --> 00:16:14.879
road or do you know if JB.

339
00:16:15.080 --> 00:16:16.960
But Jady and I have talked about it. He's been

340
00:16:17.039 --> 00:16:19.559
listening to more and more audio books, which is you know,

341
00:16:19.799 --> 00:16:24.000
is great. So we talked about just some audiobooks and

342
00:16:24.080 --> 00:16:27.360
things that he's listened to. And I think it'll be

343
00:16:27.399 --> 00:16:29.039
great because I don't have to take you know, now,

344
00:16:29.120 --> 00:16:31.240
with today's technology, don't have to have a book with

345
00:16:31.360 --> 00:16:35.759
you and and you know, come on the I phone

346
00:16:35.799 --> 00:16:38.440
and on the fly or in the car. So that

347
00:16:38.480 --> 00:16:39.000
would be great.

348
00:16:39.320 --> 00:16:43.039
Yeah, and it's true. You download stuff automatically right down

349
00:16:43.080 --> 00:16:44.519
to your iPhone. I know that you're you, and I

350
00:16:44.600 --> 00:16:47.639
are talking on your cell phone right now on your iPhone.

351
00:16:48.440 --> 00:16:52.159
I actually just took a driving trip down from the

352
00:16:52.360 --> 00:16:56.639
San Francisco area down to Los Angeles and found an

353
00:16:56.679 --> 00:16:59.759
eight hour book that took me there and back and

354
00:16:59.840 --> 00:17:02.960
it was a really fun book. I really enjoyed it.

355
00:17:03.039 --> 00:17:06.480
It's called ten Percent Happier. How I tamed the voice

356
00:17:06.559 --> 00:17:09.640
in my head, reduced stress without losing my edge, and

357
00:17:09.799 --> 00:17:13.440
found a self help that actually works. And it's written

358
00:17:13.519 --> 00:17:17.319
by this guy named Dan Harris. Now, he was the

359
00:17:17.440 --> 00:17:22.759
nightline anchor and he's worked for ABC Network and he

360
00:17:23.000 --> 00:17:28.160
had a panic attack live on television while he was

361
00:17:28.279 --> 00:17:32.640
doing a newscast on Good Morning America, and so he

362
00:17:32.799 --> 00:17:35.319
realized at that point that he had to make some changes.

363
00:17:36.240 --> 00:17:38.960
He's a non believer. He found himself in a very

364
00:17:39.039 --> 00:17:43.720
bizarre situation, and then ABC made him their religious reporter,

365
00:17:43.880 --> 00:17:46.160
and he was like, why am I covering religion? I

366
00:17:46.200 --> 00:17:48.839
don't make it. But he just went on this self

367
00:17:48.960 --> 00:17:55.079
help exploration and he found a way to tame his voice.

368
00:17:56.480 --> 00:17:59.079
And it's interesting because while I was listening to it,

369
00:17:59.160 --> 00:18:02.960
and he talked about meditation, he talked about mindfulness. It

370
00:18:03.160 --> 00:18:05.720
resonated to me because so much of what I have

371
00:18:05.920 --> 00:18:10.160
talked about on Golf Smarter really is kind of mindfulness,

372
00:18:10.240 --> 00:18:13.119
and that is all that is is being present, being

373
00:18:13.359 --> 00:18:18.680
in the moment. And so many instructors, so many mental

374
00:18:18.759 --> 00:18:22.079
coaches that we've had on the show, talk about being

375
00:18:22.319 --> 00:18:26.960
in the moment, focusing on the process and not about

376
00:18:27.000 --> 00:18:31.519
the outcome. And Dan Harris talks about how all of

377
00:18:31.640 --> 00:18:34.920
this work for him made him ten percent happier. And

378
00:18:35.079 --> 00:18:38.079
it's a really entertaining book because there's so many stories,

379
00:18:38.200 --> 00:18:41.920
especially if you like media and get his background and

380
00:18:42.279 --> 00:18:45.480
turning Diane Sawyer onto meditation, that kind of stuff. It's

381
00:18:45.519 --> 00:18:47.039
a great book to check out.

382
00:18:47.319 --> 00:18:49.839
Yeah, well that's great. Just mindfulness and being president. That's

383
00:18:49.880 --> 00:18:53.559
exactly what Tarry Orion Golf is about. And what you know,

384
00:18:53.640 --> 00:18:55.680
what Colin is figured out how to do is just

385
00:18:55.839 --> 00:18:59.680
basically get somebody. So it's easiest to okay, be mindful,

386
00:19:00.319 --> 00:19:02.480
and it's easy to say, okay, be present, but now

387
00:19:02.559 --> 00:19:05.039
how do you help me? Right? How do you know?

388
00:19:05.119 --> 00:19:05.680
How do I do that?

389
00:19:05.759 --> 00:19:06.480
What does that look like?

390
00:19:06.920 --> 00:19:09.039
And so he has actually studied, you know, the brainway

391
00:19:09.200 --> 00:19:12.279
patterns and everything of what what the brainways look like

392
00:19:12.359 --> 00:19:14.240
when they're in this when someone is in the zone

393
00:19:14.279 --> 00:19:15.799
that you know when you talk about all was in

394
00:19:15.880 --> 00:19:18.119
the zone and is that okay? Why don't you just

395
00:19:18.319 --> 00:19:20.119
get back to the zone. Why do you call out

396
00:19:20.200 --> 00:19:22.000
his zone? Why does that happen? I'm a golfer and

397
00:19:22.079 --> 00:19:24.240
it's happened to me, and it's like, how do you

398
00:19:24.279 --> 00:19:25.880
put your finger on that? So that's what he has,

399
00:19:26.839 --> 00:19:29.519
you know, the vault, a way to just basically do that.

400
00:19:29.880 --> 00:19:32.319
And he called the target or in a golf and

401
00:19:32.440 --> 00:19:34.599
it makes sense because the easiest way to do it

402
00:19:34.960 --> 00:19:39.440
is just by finding a specific target. And it can

403
00:19:39.559 --> 00:19:43.960
be anything that you enjoy looking at that is in

404
00:19:44.200 --> 00:19:46.839
the picture of where you would like to get the golf.

405
00:19:47.079 --> 00:19:48.720
So let's say you're staying on this and bocks and

406
00:19:48.960 --> 00:19:52.799
you know there's this panoramic you but you're not necessarily

407
00:19:52.880 --> 00:19:54.759
looking in the tree still left of the fairway. You're

408
00:19:54.759 --> 00:19:58.079
looking somewhere through the stairway. There'll be something that just

409
00:19:58.200 --> 00:20:01.599
stands out and on toward everywhere there's a specific tree.

410
00:20:01.680 --> 00:20:05.839
It's like an architect put it there on purpose. Every

411
00:20:05.920 --> 00:20:09.599
hole we have that, and I found when I play

412
00:20:09.640 --> 00:20:13.079
other places every hole has that there's something that stands out.

413
00:20:13.119 --> 00:20:14.960
It's like God put it there for you to look

414
00:20:15.000 --> 00:20:17.400
at the architecture. You know, who never built the gout force,

415
00:20:17.480 --> 00:20:20.279
whatever it is, that's where you should be looking to

416
00:20:20.400 --> 00:20:22.519
hit this shot. And that's what you should be thinking

417
00:20:22.519 --> 00:20:25.519
about while you swing, not your golf swing, Not what

418
00:20:25.640 --> 00:20:27.359
you're going to tell your friends, Not that this is

419
00:20:28.559 --> 00:20:30.720
going to be your longest sea side to day, not

420
00:20:30.880 --> 00:20:33.039
that you're down for in your match, not that you're

421
00:20:33.119 --> 00:20:35.799
up for in your match. Think about the party every

422
00:20:35.880 --> 00:20:40.279
time on the driving range and the event of your life.

423
00:20:40.680 --> 00:20:43.319
And that is the breakdown that happens when when people

424
00:20:43.440 --> 00:20:49.519
are playing golf, you know, And it's simple to explain

425
00:20:50.680 --> 00:20:53.839
once you understand, in my opinion, once you understand what

426
00:20:53.880 --> 00:20:56.319
Paul's talking about with target orient golf. But it's not

427
00:20:56.440 --> 00:20:59.480
necessarily easy to do because it's falling into this trap

428
00:21:01.680 --> 00:21:05.359
the results only in it, like you just said, and

429
00:21:05.480 --> 00:21:08.599
going past future and lighting your mind just just run

430
00:21:08.640 --> 00:21:11.079
them up. So you know, said before to someone that

431
00:21:12.039 --> 00:21:14.839
you either control your mind or it's going to control you.

432
00:21:15.880 --> 00:21:18.039
And everybody goes up to the golf course and they

433
00:21:18.119 --> 00:21:20.079
let their mind control them, and you can tell it's

434
00:21:20.119 --> 00:21:22.839
controlling them because they don't seem to be enjoying golf

435
00:21:22.960 --> 00:21:25.599
very much. They'll come back and play again tomorrow or

436
00:21:25.720 --> 00:21:28.920
next weekend. They like it enough because they hit that

437
00:21:29.039 --> 00:21:29.519
one shot.

438
00:21:29.559 --> 00:21:30.039
They're hooked.

439
00:21:30.039 --> 00:21:32.079
They hit that shot they know they can do, and

440
00:21:32.519 --> 00:21:35.799
they keep saying, walk down and do that every time. Right,

441
00:21:36.480 --> 00:21:39.200
you're adlter. So so.

442
00:21:40.839 --> 00:21:44.400
You have worked with Colin, you've studied with Colin, or

443
00:21:44.519 --> 00:21:47.519
you just like the concept that he's he's been doing.

444
00:21:48.960 --> 00:21:52.000
You know, I calling something. So I got together with

445
00:21:52.119 --> 00:21:55.000
Colin just basically I'd played in some advances and I've

446
00:21:55.039 --> 00:21:58.200
been away from competition golf for a while. So the

447
00:21:58.279 --> 00:22:01.039
first thing that happened I near that acuse, the payment event,

448
00:22:01.400 --> 00:22:03.720
anything that you're looking forward to for a long time

449
00:22:03.720 --> 00:22:06.519
and you practice for, and that's what you're thinking about

450
00:22:06.559 --> 00:22:09.279
when you're practicing, Right, that's how you could practice all

451
00:22:09.359 --> 00:22:13.960
practice event I want to do well. You're practicing your touch,

452
00:22:14.880 --> 00:22:17.160
you're thinking about that, So that's the future. You're not

453
00:22:17.240 --> 00:22:19.960
being in the present when you practice. Then that event happens,

454
00:22:20.880 --> 00:22:22.880
and it's impossible to be in the president at that part.

455
00:22:22.960 --> 00:22:25.160
You haven't really practicing in the president. And then you

456
00:22:25.200 --> 00:22:27.119
don't get the results you wanted, and you're like, what,

457
00:22:27.440 --> 00:22:30.319
you know the practice? HA spent all these hours practicing golf,

458
00:22:30.839 --> 00:22:33.079
and so I knew I had a problem that no

459
00:22:33.160 --> 00:22:35.599
one had. Really. It was the first time I knew

460
00:22:35.599 --> 00:22:36.920
it was a problem. I went, I went to the

461
00:22:37.000 --> 00:22:38.759
huge school event and just hit you know, I was

462
00:22:38.799 --> 00:22:41.039
playing well and just hit this shot off the map

463
00:22:41.079 --> 00:22:42.720
and that's not like me. I hit it in the water,

464
00:22:43.400 --> 00:22:45.799
you know. Lastly, I guess you would call a double cross.

465
00:22:45.839 --> 00:22:48.119
I've never really hit that kind of shot before. And

466
00:22:48.319 --> 00:22:51.960
I thought, I knew that my mind had it's gotten

467
00:22:51.960 --> 00:22:56.279
away from me. So I just started looking for anybody,

468
00:22:56.599 --> 00:23:01.799
you know, just anybody could on online basically, and there

469
00:23:01.880 --> 00:23:03.839
was Target Warning a golf and I read about it,

470
00:23:04.200 --> 00:23:08.920
and on his website he was describing what exactly what

471
00:23:09.799 --> 00:23:12.559
I thought my problem was. And then he had these

472
00:23:12.759 --> 00:23:16.079
one after shots and you could tell a different I

473
00:23:16.119 --> 00:23:19.599
couldn't tell what the difference was. And so I got

474
00:23:19.640 --> 00:23:25.160
ahold of just through actually end point golf model thing

475
00:23:25.400 --> 00:23:27.240
in the UK said hey, you know this guy is

476
00:23:27.319 --> 00:23:29.839
actually I just went with that with that calling. So

477
00:23:29.960 --> 00:23:32.359
he put us in touch, introduced us, and I started

478
00:23:32.400 --> 00:23:35.200
talking to him and I posted conversation. I mean, he

479
00:23:36.000 --> 00:23:40.160
he call and explain to me exactly what my problem was.

480
00:23:40.480 --> 00:23:43.079
And I talked to him every week for the next

481
00:23:43.119 --> 00:23:45.240
few weeks and we just talked about target warning golf

482
00:23:45.279 --> 00:23:47.119
and I would send him videos of me doing it,

483
00:23:47.319 --> 00:23:53.079
and yeah, you know, I came to an understanding of

484
00:23:53.279 --> 00:23:55.480
exactly what he was talking about and was able to

485
00:23:55.680 --> 00:23:58.240
put in practice. And more importantly, I'm able to from

486
00:23:58.279 --> 00:24:02.519
a caddy standpoint, help the player focus on the things

487
00:24:02.559 --> 00:24:05.119
that we need to focus on, you know what I mean,

488
00:24:05.279 --> 00:24:09.680
which is the target. We practice with the target, and

489
00:24:09.799 --> 00:24:12.160
we played them with the parties, and now we're able

490
00:24:12.240 --> 00:24:16.279
to practice more closely instead of being worrying about the

491
00:24:16.400 --> 00:24:19.000
swinging so much. I mean again, if the traffic comes

492
00:24:19.079 --> 00:24:23.240
up right. But you'll find for the weekend golfers out there,

493
00:24:23.319 --> 00:24:26.799
you'll find that it's when you spend time practicing or

494
00:24:26.839 --> 00:24:30.039
you're thinking at home about the target, like a hole

495
00:24:30.119 --> 00:24:34.039
that you saw, if you knew what your target was,

496
00:24:34.599 --> 00:24:37.359
that's different than just knowing that there was a fairly

497
00:24:37.519 --> 00:24:39.160
there and you had no idea really what you were

498
00:24:39.200 --> 00:24:40.759
swinging in You're trying to get the ball affairly and

499
00:24:40.839 --> 00:24:44.519
you were thinking about maybe your release, or maybe your

500
00:24:44.599 --> 00:24:47.880
weight shift, or maybe something somebody told you you got

501
00:24:47.960 --> 00:24:49.079
to make sure this dellow.

502
00:24:48.880 --> 00:24:49.359
Is here or that.

503
00:24:49.640 --> 00:24:52.799
That's totally different experience than thinking about the target and

504
00:24:52.920 --> 00:24:57.119
reacting to the target. Totally different. And you'll know what

505
00:24:57.240 --> 00:24:58.960
I'm talking about when you reflect that.

506
00:24:59.119 --> 00:24:59.720
Maybe you're cooking.

507
00:24:59.759 --> 00:25:01.880
Then a leader and you can go through the holes

508
00:25:02.200 --> 00:25:04.079
and every hole is you have a target, and you'll

509
00:25:04.119 --> 00:25:07.640
be at first when you start doing this sorry orient

510
00:25:07.640 --> 00:25:09.400
a golf, there'll be holes that you slipped up and

511
00:25:09.440 --> 00:25:12.440
you'll realize, oh, I don't know what my parget was there.

512
00:25:12.720 --> 00:25:14.160
And when you get really good at it, you start

513
00:25:14.400 --> 00:25:16.559
you start catching it when you step into your shot,

514
00:25:17.000 --> 00:25:19.519
and when you in mind you start trying to paint

515
00:25:19.519 --> 00:25:22.200
a picture. When when you make your dolls clean, what

516
00:25:22.359 --> 00:25:24.240
that part it is? And when you can't do it,

517
00:25:24.279 --> 00:25:26.359
it's because you don't have one, because you never really

518
00:25:26.400 --> 00:25:29.319
sold one. You're just swinging the club at nothing, and

519
00:25:29.400 --> 00:25:31.079
then you wonder why you don't get your results you want.

520
00:25:31.240 --> 00:25:33.799
So I kind of go together. You're talking about being present,

521
00:25:34.559 --> 00:25:38.839
not being a results oriented, and we're talking about enjoyment

522
00:25:38.920 --> 00:25:42.480
a golf and what's called dolfhood. It is you're you're

523
00:25:42.519 --> 00:25:44.519
outside with friends or people you like to at least

524
00:25:44.559 --> 00:25:45.000
be around.

525
00:25:45.200 --> 00:25:45.880
You're at a park.

526
00:25:46.000 --> 00:25:49.799
Basically, you've got landset aside that is free. Of course,

527
00:25:49.799 --> 00:25:52.480
it is not as beautiful birds, water ducks, you know,

528
00:25:53.240 --> 00:25:56.200
all these beautiful things. And you've got these picture, these

529
00:25:56.440 --> 00:25:59.279
these pictures, these views that you can look at, and

530
00:25:59.319 --> 00:26:02.559
I'm saying, just start looking at them, because everybody looks

531
00:26:02.559 --> 00:26:04.559
down at the ground and see this white ball, and

532
00:26:04.640 --> 00:26:07.839
then that's the frustration. I'm saying, look up and find

533
00:26:07.880 --> 00:26:11.000
the target. It's get that in your mind and the

534
00:26:11.160 --> 00:26:13.759
enjoyment comes, and then you start feeling like that the

535
00:26:13.839 --> 00:26:15.319
story you just talked about with the dog, I mean

536
00:26:15.359 --> 00:26:20.440
he's having a blast, is having a good time on

537
00:26:20.480 --> 00:26:22.480
the golf course. And then you can say I'm a

538
00:26:22.519 --> 00:26:25.640
good golfer and your score won't reflect it. But it

539
00:26:25.680 --> 00:26:26.640
won't be in the score.

540
00:26:26.759 --> 00:26:27.920
That won't be while you know you're good.

541
00:26:28.160 --> 00:26:30.200
You know you're good because you enjoyed the time you

542
00:26:30.279 --> 00:26:31.400
stand out there which your friends.

543
00:26:37.839 --> 00:26:42.880
On the target concept, Am I picking a spot that

544
00:26:42.960 --> 00:26:46.160
I want the ball to land on? Am I picking

545
00:26:46.799 --> 00:26:48.880
like you were saying, a tree in the distance that

546
00:26:48.960 --> 00:26:51.039
I want my ballflight to follow?

547
00:26:51.440 --> 00:26:52.079
I'm looking that.

548
00:26:54.319 --> 00:26:57.839
Give me specific because I know that sometimes I'll look

549
00:26:57.839 --> 00:27:00.920
at a spot on the fairway and I'll focus on

550
00:27:01.000 --> 00:27:02.960
that spot on the fairway, and then when I get

551
00:27:03.240 --> 00:27:05.119
you know, and then I bring my head back, and

552
00:27:05.200 --> 00:27:07.480
all of a sudden, now that I'm looking at the ball,

553
00:27:07.599 --> 00:27:10.160
I start thinking about, Okay, make sure my elbow doesn't

554
00:27:10.200 --> 00:27:13.240
fly out, make sure that my weight shift is correct, right,

555
00:27:13.599 --> 00:27:15.680
you know, I'll get lost in that, and then I

556
00:27:16.000 --> 00:27:17.480
but but don't and then you know, and then I

557
00:27:17.559 --> 00:27:19.279
hear myself, but don't forget where you're trying to hit

558
00:27:19.319 --> 00:27:21.720
the ball. So there's too many things obviously going on

559
00:27:21.839 --> 00:27:24.839
in my head at once, but I get lost on

560
00:27:25.000 --> 00:27:27.640
whether I'm you know, focusing on a landing spot or

561
00:27:27.680 --> 00:27:31.160
a ball flight or are they mutually exclusive? Are they

562
00:27:31.160 --> 00:27:31.599
the same thing?

563
00:27:34.519 --> 00:27:38.880
Well, yeah, that's so. On the on the tea box,

564
00:27:39.000 --> 00:27:42.440
most often, what what I will talk about is there

565
00:27:42.480 --> 00:27:46.759
will be playing to wear that has tree. So I'm

566
00:27:46.839 --> 00:27:49.599
usually looking at a certain color tree or a trunk.

567
00:27:49.640 --> 00:27:52.359
Maybe there's a clickd trunk. Maybe there's a tree that

568
00:27:52.440 --> 00:27:54.960
makes a why so you would your ball would never

569
00:27:55.119 --> 00:27:58.160
get to that tree that might be through the fair

570
00:27:58.240 --> 00:28:00.559
way on the line that would be anywhere on that

571
00:28:00.680 --> 00:28:03.359
line would be good. So maybe maybe the cover to

572
00:28:03.400 --> 00:28:06.240
get to the fairway is like to twenty and then

573
00:28:06.319 --> 00:28:08.400
you run out to go and through the rough on

574
00:28:08.440 --> 00:28:11.680
the other side is like three thirty. You with me,

575
00:28:11.759 --> 00:28:14.359
So we have a line created and you you can

576
00:28:14.480 --> 00:28:16.759
draw into that line. You can fade into that line

577
00:28:16.799 --> 00:28:19.240
that you're wanting to call the end somewhere on that line,

578
00:28:19.599 --> 00:28:21.119
but it can never get to that tree because it's

579
00:28:21.119 --> 00:28:23.200
three is four hundred yards away or four und yards

580
00:28:23.200 --> 00:28:25.559
away maybe, or maybe it's three hundred and thirty yards away.

581
00:28:26.160 --> 00:28:28.799
So there's this picture, and then what if I took

582
00:28:28.839 --> 00:28:31.000
a picture with a camera and then brought it to you.

583
00:28:32.799 --> 00:28:35.240
I would circle on a rip saying, hey, you know

584
00:28:35.359 --> 00:28:37.279
on this line, I can show you on this line,

585
00:28:37.279 --> 00:28:40.480
if you get it towards this tree, you have to

586
00:28:40.559 --> 00:28:42.400
get a two and twenty yards get to the fairway,

587
00:28:42.559 --> 00:28:44.519
or two hundre yards get to the fairway, and then

588
00:28:44.559 --> 00:28:48.680
three hundred and thirty three. Now, if those numbers that

589
00:28:48.759 --> 00:28:49.960
work for you can can't hit it to it in

590
00:28:50.039 --> 00:28:53.200
twenty yards, you need to have a different target. You

591
00:28:53.319 --> 00:28:55.680
with me, Yeah, you would shift it over to where

592
00:28:55.720 --> 00:28:57.720
you can reach the fairway. Say, okay, So if I'm

593
00:28:57.759 --> 00:29:02.200
describing a target for my wife, is just a game

594
00:29:02.319 --> 00:29:04.880
golf I describe, I'm like, hey, do you see that?

595
00:29:05.200 --> 00:29:07.200
You know, there's this tree, there's this group of pie.

596
00:29:07.559 --> 00:29:11.440
Now my target sometimes is way less closer to the green,

597
00:29:12.039 --> 00:29:13.759
you know, and I find something that I like to

598
00:29:13.839 --> 00:29:16.799
think about. She may not ever see you're playing the

599
00:29:16.839 --> 00:29:19.519
framed golf course, but she would never see what I'm

600
00:29:19.839 --> 00:29:22.720
necessarily looking at. And I would never look when I'm

601
00:29:22.720 --> 00:29:25.880
playing off. I would never necessarily look where she's looking.

602
00:29:26.240 --> 00:29:28.000
But it needs to be something. It can be a

603
00:29:28.079 --> 00:29:30.079
bird on a tree, you know. You know, a bird

604
00:29:30.160 --> 00:29:32.960
might fly away, but a bird might direct you towards

605
00:29:32.960 --> 00:29:34.839
the tree you never saw before. So that's on the

606
00:29:34.920 --> 00:29:37.039
pie that is when we get closer to the hole.

607
00:29:37.480 --> 00:29:39.799
They can be that spot on the green. But there's

608
00:29:39.839 --> 00:29:42.000
a problem if you're picking the spot to land in

609
00:29:42.200 --> 00:29:44.039
the fairway, well what if your drive is man a

610
00:29:44.160 --> 00:29:46.880
favor than that, you know, so it's easier just to

611
00:29:46.920 --> 00:29:49.039
pick trunking up and you want to you know, and

612
00:29:49.200 --> 00:29:51.559
it's doing the track man. Everything is related, but TrackMan

613
00:29:51.599 --> 00:29:53.240
never say to me the boss fall you will end up,

614
00:29:53.759 --> 00:29:56.839
you know, pluck two to four degrees and sing out well,

615
00:29:57.000 --> 00:30:00.240
So you want to be looking at something higher because

616
00:30:00.240 --> 00:30:01.839
you want to hit up on a driver. You want

617
00:30:02.000 --> 00:30:04.079
to catch it on the upswing right of your circle

618
00:30:05.440 --> 00:30:08.440
by spurs of chips. You're going to land somewhere short

619
00:30:08.480 --> 00:30:10.839
of the can so now and if it's breaking to

620
00:30:10.960 --> 00:30:13.680
the left, your target will be shortened to the right

621
00:30:14.160 --> 00:30:15.759
of the top and if you and you can make

622
00:30:15.839 --> 00:30:17.960
your circle, depending on how good at golf, how much

623
00:30:17.960 --> 00:30:20.480
you get, lady to make your circle bigger, you can

624
00:30:20.559 --> 00:30:22.799
have a bigger target, or you can make it smaller,

625
00:30:22.880 --> 00:30:27.359
especially if you're playing well, or or if it's significantly downhill.

626
00:30:27.720 --> 00:30:30.759
Maybe maybe you have a small fot it's closer to

627
00:30:30.920 --> 00:30:32.799
you and you just have to bump it. We've all

628
00:30:32.880 --> 00:30:35.000
done this. You just want to where you were doing it.

629
00:30:35.119 --> 00:30:37.519
Maybe you're going to hear a little nine here and

630
00:30:37.599 --> 00:30:40.400
it's a downhill right left breaking you know, twenty feet away.

631
00:30:40.960 --> 00:30:43.319
You're not trying to knock a nine iron in the hole. Oh.

632
00:30:43.599 --> 00:30:45.960
You shift your target closer to you and further to

633
00:30:46.039 --> 00:30:47.920
the right, and you're like, I just think it's that

634
00:30:48.119 --> 00:30:50.079
fought and the ball will tunnel down to the hole

635
00:30:50.680 --> 00:30:53.480
that moment you're doing target only a golf and most

636
00:30:53.519 --> 00:30:55.960
of the time people are successful on those types of shots.

637
00:30:56.039 --> 00:30:59.960
It's just I'm talking about and talk expanding that fought

638
00:31:00.599 --> 00:31:02.559
all the way back toity and doing it every time.

639
00:31:03.039 --> 00:31:04.960
So in a sense it can be a little bit boring,

640
00:31:05.240 --> 00:31:07.519
but it's not boring, and that you get to see

641
00:31:07.599 --> 00:31:09.440
more of the golf course and you notice these things

642
00:31:09.480 --> 00:31:11.960
that were there all along. But most of the time

643
00:31:12.039 --> 00:31:15.039
people are just looking at the golf ball and thinking

644
00:31:15.079 --> 00:31:17.079
about the golfspel. So then you want to get to

645
00:31:17.319 --> 00:31:18.160
enjoy the golf course.

646
00:31:21.799 --> 00:31:22.079
Wow.

647
00:31:23.720 --> 00:31:26.160
Yeah, it's mind blows because they're all along and most

648
00:31:26.200 --> 00:31:30.200
people have done it, you know, they just don't they're

649
00:31:30.240 --> 00:31:34.160
not aware. So really, Colin has a systematic way of

650
00:31:34.359 --> 00:31:37.119
just becoming aware. And if you do that every day

651
00:31:37.160 --> 00:31:39.759
you practice and every day you play golf, you get

652
00:31:39.839 --> 00:31:43.759
better because you get feedbacks when you miss your target.

653
00:31:44.240 --> 00:31:45.920
You don't have to go to the golf swing and

654
00:31:46.640 --> 00:31:48.839
think technically, all my faces up at your feet and

655
00:31:48.839 --> 00:31:51.720
you have a feeling all of a sudden, feelings is

656
00:31:51.839 --> 00:31:54.039
so big because your mind is the only thinking about

657
00:31:54.079 --> 00:31:57.680
the target, and then you can adjust your feeling and

658
00:31:57.799 --> 00:32:00.200
guess what your swing comes out looking just like track

659
00:32:00.279 --> 00:32:02.680
man says it should, or just like the guys on tour.

660
00:32:03.519 --> 00:32:05.359
It takes time and you're I'm not saying you're gonna

661
00:32:05.400 --> 00:32:10.119
have You're gonna have your tour swan that you understand,

662
00:32:10.599 --> 00:32:14.240
and that is golf actually knowing where the golf ball

663
00:32:14.319 --> 00:32:16.400
is going to go before you hit it, whether it's

664
00:32:16.400 --> 00:32:19.359
a favor or all, whatever it is. Once you have,

665
00:32:19.640 --> 00:32:22.200
once you can hit a four and different difference in

666
00:32:22.279 --> 00:32:24.400
a set of iron and then some sort of wood

667
00:32:24.960 --> 00:32:27.519
a little bit further than before you are playing golf.

668
00:32:28.359 --> 00:32:31.519
The next thing you want to do then is understanding

669
00:32:32.559 --> 00:32:36.240
uphiel shots are easier in general than downhill shots because

670
00:32:36.279 --> 00:32:38.839
gravity will stop it. So then you're looking for places

671
00:32:38.880 --> 00:32:41.119
that you can get your ball around the green, that

672
00:32:41.160 --> 00:32:43.720
you have an uphill chip or an upfield putt, and

673
00:32:43.839 --> 00:32:47.720
then you can start having lower scores. You know, so

674
00:32:48.200 --> 00:32:50.599
eighteen number is nine. So if you're not working ninety,

675
00:32:51.519 --> 00:32:53.559
you need to find some way where do you like

676
00:32:53.640 --> 00:32:56.440
to hit your shot from the fairway, Like if you

677
00:32:56.519 --> 00:32:58.720
block out on the left, if the dog leg left,

678
00:32:59.240 --> 00:33:01.079
you already know you don't want your target to be

679
00:33:01.720 --> 00:33:03.839
down the left unless you hate it. Maybe it's great.

680
00:33:03.880 --> 00:33:05.640
If you're gonna hear it the sling, you're going to

681
00:33:05.759 --> 00:33:07.359
the that part of the saily. So your target to

682
00:33:07.480 --> 00:33:10.680
be you could start it on the left corner. There

683
00:33:10.720 --> 00:33:12.599
may be a tree that you love to swing it,

684
00:33:12.720 --> 00:33:14.480
and you can just wear it out and do your

685
00:33:14.519 --> 00:33:17.279
swing at that target. But you know the balls want

686
00:33:17.279 --> 00:33:19.960
to cut. You're playing golf. Now when you get to

687
00:33:20.039 --> 00:33:22.440
the next shot, you know you only shore the hole. Well,

688
00:33:22.480 --> 00:33:25.279
you're seven, I might get through the hole. Getting through

689
00:33:25.279 --> 00:33:27.839
the whole badge is it's extremely downhill. So you choose

690
00:33:27.880 --> 00:33:30.359
an adie and you find a target that you like

691
00:33:30.440 --> 00:33:32.519
looking at, and you know it's gonna fade. So maybe

692
00:33:32.599 --> 00:33:35.400
the front left of the green. There the tree, there's

693
00:33:35.480 --> 00:33:38.599
the green. Maybe there's a cart path there. Everybody's seeing

694
00:33:38.640 --> 00:33:40.720
these places I'm talking about, and they've done it. It's

695
00:33:40.799 --> 00:33:42.559
just being aware and starting to do it every time.

696
00:33:43.039 --> 00:33:45.519
Then you're playing golf, you aid out and stay shore.

697
00:33:45.640 --> 00:33:47.359
Maybe you get to get it and it just creeps up.

698
00:33:47.519 --> 00:33:49.400
Now you have an upfield chair, throw an upfield cut,

699
00:33:50.880 --> 00:33:53.960
chip up putt that's above chip up. Make a putt

700
00:33:54.039 --> 00:33:54.599
below the hole.

701
00:33:54.880 --> 00:33:55.559
You know what I'm saying.

702
00:33:55.599 --> 00:33:59.119
That's a part and then just waiting for those opportunities

703
00:34:00.480 --> 00:34:03.079
where you're comfortable with anchershot and then you might make

704
00:34:03.079 --> 00:34:06.720
a birdie, had a birdie Clott. But those happen almost

705
00:34:06.960 --> 00:34:08.960
by accident, and it's not like you purpose to say

706
00:34:09.039 --> 00:34:11.960
I'm going to burdy this whole. No, there's a plane

707
00:34:12.039 --> 00:34:14.599
you can put in play with targets that can lead

708
00:34:14.679 --> 00:34:17.119
you to a birdie, you know, but it's not just

709
00:34:17.239 --> 00:34:19.320
step up and work and just swinging targ I can

710
00:34:19.440 --> 00:34:21.719
you know, and think about releasing the club and think

711
00:34:21.760 --> 00:34:24.280
about this elbow that's not going to lead you where

712
00:34:24.280 --> 00:34:30.000
you want to be. That's frustration, the that's what you know.

713
00:34:30.239 --> 00:34:34.280
Yeah, and this is all a critical element of the

714
00:34:34.320 --> 00:34:35.280
pre shot routine.

715
00:34:37.280 --> 00:34:41.360
Correct, correct, And what I really liked about talking with

716
00:34:41.519 --> 00:34:44.199
Colin you know about the pre shot routine is that

717
00:34:44.400 --> 00:34:48.079
you're maybe stepping across a creek or you know, climbing

718
00:34:48.480 --> 00:34:52.360
not climbing once. Once you have a process that you're

719
00:34:52.440 --> 00:34:56.119
comfortable with, and it starts with you and confirming okay,

720
00:34:56.400 --> 00:34:58.159
you have that thing. You need to be aware you're

721
00:34:58.320 --> 00:35:01.280
on a golf course. You want to be here right,

722
00:35:01.400 --> 00:35:04.559
so you're going to enjoy the next thirty You needs

723
00:35:04.599 --> 00:35:06.519
to be enjoyment, which is where you're chosen to be.

724
00:35:07.440 --> 00:35:09.360
Then you're going too what do I see you before me?

725
00:35:09.559 --> 00:35:11.239
You know, oh, okay, there's a creek. Am I going

726
00:35:11.280 --> 00:35:11.800
over the creek?

727
00:35:11.880 --> 00:35:12.480
Short the creek?

728
00:35:12.599 --> 00:35:15.840
So you're making a decision on your club. Okay, we're

729
00:35:15.840 --> 00:35:17.800
gonna go over the creek and we have one hundred

730
00:35:17.800 --> 00:35:21.199
and fifty yards to the front is longod from a

731
00:35:21.239 --> 00:35:23.360
catting standpoint. I'm just telling you what I would do

732
00:35:23.440 --> 00:35:26.280
it in a couple of seconds to help the player.

733
00:35:26.760 --> 00:35:29.000
You know, it might take me longer to explain, but

734
00:35:29.079 --> 00:35:32.400
you do this in a few seconds. Short, this pin

735
00:35:32.559 --> 00:35:35.320
is better. You know, we have twenty yards to cover

736
00:35:35.440 --> 00:35:39.360
over the creek, so shorts good. One fifty front, so

737
00:35:40.079 --> 00:35:43.039
nine ie gets to the front and the king down seven.

738
00:35:43.159 --> 00:35:45.360
But we know shorts, okay, we could maybe chip it

739
00:35:45.400 --> 00:35:47.199
in or you know, we are gonna feel shot, so

740
00:35:47.280 --> 00:35:50.199
we're gonna choose a nine iron. The wind is you know,

741
00:35:50.320 --> 00:35:53.480
there's not my twin right now? And then you're gonna

742
00:35:53.480 --> 00:35:56.320
find a target. Okay, what is short left? When I

743
00:35:56.360 --> 00:35:59.480
look short left, what do I see? And that there

744
00:35:59.480 --> 00:36:01.320
will lead this tree track? All right, that's my target.

745
00:36:01.360 --> 00:36:02.440
I'm just gonna hit the tree truck.

746
00:36:02.519 --> 00:36:05.719
Now, if it's saved a little bit, yeah, maybe I

747
00:36:05.880 --> 00:36:08.079
hit it closer I'm into. But if it goes exactly

748
00:36:08.159 --> 00:36:10.360
where I want, I would have an upheel left to

749
00:36:10.440 --> 00:36:12.719
right Bertie put Now, if you want to write an

750
00:36:12.800 --> 00:36:15.239
uphill right to left Birdy putt. I'm talking about people

751
00:36:15.280 --> 00:36:17.480
that have played the golfers. They know what they know

752
00:36:17.559 --> 00:36:19.519
where they like to put from. You might choose a

753
00:36:19.559 --> 00:36:22.480
target a different tree just to the right, opinion right.

754
00:36:23.400 --> 00:36:24.679
If you get close enough and you have an a

755
00:36:24.960 --> 00:36:27.000
R shot and you really are good with your legs,

756
00:36:27.280 --> 00:36:30.480
your target can be a pin. You know, it doesn't

757
00:36:30.519 --> 00:36:34.440
have to be. Your desired outcome is different than your target,

758
00:36:35.239 --> 00:36:38.119
most of it. Sometimes they are the same. The time

759
00:36:38.199 --> 00:36:42.360
that's the same would be like a three foot straight putt.

760
00:36:42.960 --> 00:36:45.239
All right, But as far as you get what we've

761
00:36:45.280 --> 00:36:47.280
learned from main point, if you're above the whole breaking

762
00:36:47.360 --> 00:36:51.599
left to right and the drink since eleven, now your

763
00:36:51.719 --> 00:36:54.360
target is closer to you on further out to the

764
00:36:54.480 --> 00:36:57.760
left as a whole, because gravity's gonna think it to

765
00:36:57.840 --> 00:37:00.719
the right, so your target can't be the whole. You'll

766
00:37:00.760 --> 00:37:03.440
miss it. Well right, we won't have to hit it hard.

767
00:37:03.440 --> 00:37:05.199
You could go straight over the cup your target.

768
00:37:05.320 --> 00:37:06.159
Then are you with me?

769
00:37:07.280 --> 00:37:10.320
Yeah, where people kind of get confused your cognitive that

770
00:37:10.400 --> 00:37:13.280
place a place like that niner and where do you

771
00:37:13.360 --> 00:37:15.599
make this fall and you can go back in. You

772
00:37:15.679 --> 00:37:17.679
can do it to this place and then grabbing it

773
00:37:17.760 --> 00:37:21.719
kind of the rest with a driver. Your target is

774
00:37:21.760 --> 00:37:25.639
somewhere down range and it's fun. You know, it can

775
00:37:25.679 --> 00:37:26.960
be a cloud if they're not moving.

776
00:37:27.000 --> 00:37:27.800
I mean growing up.

777
00:37:28.079 --> 00:37:29.760
There there was some guys and then we were doing

778
00:37:29.840 --> 00:37:31.480
this stuff. And I think people do it all the

779
00:37:31.519 --> 00:37:32.239
time when they play.

780
00:37:32.440 --> 00:37:33.960
They're just not aware of this that we're doing this

781
00:37:34.039 --> 00:37:34.880
stuff when we're unger.

782
00:37:34.920 --> 00:37:37.280
Oh, you'll hit it fat, you know, you'll hit this

783
00:37:37.519 --> 00:37:41.400
uh the tier line poles, you know. I mean, as

784
00:37:41.440 --> 00:37:43.239
long as you hit that direction, you'll see down to

785
00:37:43.280 --> 00:37:45.000
the right and kind of going fairly or you know

786
00:37:45.159 --> 00:37:46.920
that's the rough, the land and the rough, but it's

787
00:37:46.920 --> 00:37:49.599
going to just down. That's your target, the self a pulse.

788
00:37:49.840 --> 00:37:52.440
But that cloud above them today, there's a cloud there.

789
00:37:52.440 --> 00:37:54.239
It's fay. They're not might not be. That's why cloud

790
00:37:54.280 --> 00:37:58.480
aren't necessarily good accuses the target, you know, But as

791
00:37:58.519 --> 00:38:00.719
long as you're there in the moment, you can choose

792
00:38:00.800 --> 00:38:03.519
that your ball is ever going to hit that cloud,

793
00:38:03.519 --> 00:38:06.639
though the question about where the target would.

794
00:38:06.400 --> 00:38:09.159
Be, Yeah, your mind may hit the cloud. But that's

795
00:38:09.199 --> 00:38:10.559
a different topic altogether.

796
00:38:11.599 --> 00:38:14.920
I like and that's yes exactly.

797
00:38:21.079 --> 00:38:24.000
I like the the concept of desired outcome is different

798
00:38:24.079 --> 00:38:29.159
than the target. You said that a moment ago, and.

799
00:38:29.440 --> 00:38:30.000
Should we not?

800
00:38:30.760 --> 00:38:33.800
Are you saying that folks on the target and forget

801
00:38:33.840 --> 00:38:36.840
about the desired outcome? Or is desired outcome an important

802
00:38:36.880 --> 00:38:38.880
part of your preshot routine?

803
00:38:40.000 --> 00:38:42.639
Well, the desired outcome we need keep the choosing the target,

804
00:38:43.480 --> 00:38:43.800
doesn't it?

805
00:38:45.079 --> 00:38:46.840
Yea in the hole of course?

806
00:38:47.119 --> 00:38:49.000
How am I going to get this ball to roll

807
00:38:49.039 --> 00:38:50.679
in the hole? Well, that's how you're gonna shoot your target. Now,

808
00:38:50.760 --> 00:38:52.840
let's say you go through your pre short routine. Like

809
00:38:52.920 --> 00:38:55.599
I said, you can't too on a large So you know,

810
00:38:55.760 --> 00:38:59.000
now we're putting all right, uh downhill left the riot

811
00:38:59.039 --> 00:39:02.039
your chosen point pain point. Also that knowledge has helped

812
00:39:02.079 --> 00:39:05.599
us maybe choose a choose a target, but really desired outcome.

813
00:39:06.280 --> 00:39:08.519
You know from experience that this put's going to go

814
00:39:08.559 --> 00:39:10.760
down onto the left, and you've chosen there's this little uh,

815
00:39:11.639 --> 00:39:15.119
there's this little ball mark that you know that your

816
00:39:15.199 --> 00:39:18.599
ball just rolls over the inside edge, then it'll just

817
00:39:18.679 --> 00:39:21.079
be it just funnels over to the hole. So now

818
00:39:21.159 --> 00:39:23.719
that's our target inside, you know, the inside part of

819
00:39:23.760 --> 00:39:26.199
this ball mark and you're gonna step in, and you

820
00:39:26.320 --> 00:39:29.199
have this checklist of things that helps you get comfortable.

821
00:39:29.239 --> 00:39:31.679
Some people get tour players do it, you know. Some

822
00:39:31.719 --> 00:39:33.800
people twist their hips a little bit. Some people fidget

823
00:39:33.840 --> 00:39:37.000
with their whatever they're doing, they do that. It's not

824
00:39:37.199 --> 00:39:39.960
that they're they're not thinking about shaking their hands. It's

825
00:39:40.000 --> 00:39:43.280
that they're thinking about something else, and they shake their

826
00:39:43.280 --> 00:39:45.760
hand when they think about that, right, And that's why

827
00:39:45.800 --> 00:39:46.079
they do it.

828
00:39:46.159 --> 00:39:49.199
Every time they use that, they use that as a trigger.

829
00:39:49.400 --> 00:39:51.639
They use that to try to get their mind away

830
00:39:51.719 --> 00:39:53.000
from getting in that direction.

831
00:39:55.039 --> 00:39:57.800
Well, you know a lot of people that talk to

832
00:39:57.920 --> 00:39:59.159
don't know that they're doing it.

833
00:39:59.360 --> 00:39:59.760
Oh wow.

834
00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:03.400
But it's not a matter necessarily of to change to

835
00:40:03.559 --> 00:40:05.880
get their mind away from something. It's just a matter

836
00:40:05.960 --> 00:40:09.039
of that's that's what helps them. That little move gets

837
00:40:09.199 --> 00:40:11.280
that's how they double check to make sure that maybe

838
00:40:11.320 --> 00:40:14.000
they're the right elbow. You know. So I do some

839
00:40:14.079 --> 00:40:17.079
things when I'm setting up and in my mind I'm like, okay,

840
00:40:17.119 --> 00:40:19.199
all right, up, it's such an you know, my hip

841
00:40:19.320 --> 00:40:22.079
and and so what it looks like externally is not

842
00:40:22.159 --> 00:40:24.119
what it feels like internally. So what my mind, what

843
00:40:24.239 --> 00:40:26.480
I'm doing is totally different than what people would perceive

844
00:40:26.719 --> 00:40:29.079
when they watch my body move or what a camera

845
00:40:29.119 --> 00:40:30.440
would show me and be like, wow, why do I

846
00:40:30.519 --> 00:40:33.280
do that? You know? So you're stepping in and doing

847
00:40:33.320 --> 00:40:35.480
these things, and then once once you checklist is that,

848
00:40:36.000 --> 00:40:38.760
once you've done everything, it's time to hit the ball.

849
00:40:39.679 --> 00:40:42.480
At that moment, you're thinking about the target, but you're

850
00:40:42.519 --> 00:40:43.239
looking at the ball.

851
00:40:43.599 --> 00:40:44.400
Does that make sense?

852
00:40:45.280 --> 00:40:47.440
So it's like driving down the road. You know where

853
00:40:47.480 --> 00:40:48.920
the road is that you can look at. You can

854
00:40:49.039 --> 00:40:51.320
notice a tree to the left, or you're like, oh

855
00:40:51.360 --> 00:40:52.960
there's a lake, and you look away from the road,

856
00:40:53.679 --> 00:40:56.719
but you don't the wheel over and run off the road.

857
00:40:57.480 --> 00:41:00.039
You stay on the road, you know, and keep and

858
00:41:00.199 --> 00:41:02.800
keep traveling. You just for a second. That's what looking

859
00:41:02.840 --> 00:41:06.039
at the ball should be. Like, the ball's there, but

860
00:41:06.159 --> 00:41:08.360
that's not where your mind goes. The fine stays on

861
00:41:08.400 --> 00:41:11.400
the target. Your eyes come to the ball, notice it

862
00:41:11.440 --> 00:41:14.920
for a second so you can do your stroke. Other

863
00:41:15.000 --> 00:41:18.679
people have said this, They said, trace with your eyes,

864
00:41:18.880 --> 00:41:20.840
you know, from the hole back to the ball, and

865
00:41:20.920 --> 00:41:23.119
as soon as your eyes get to the ball, it's

866
00:41:23.159 --> 00:41:24.880
trying to hit your stroke. That's what they mean.

867
00:41:26.159 --> 00:41:28.320
I think that isn't that Jeff Mangum who says that

868
00:41:28.639 --> 00:41:32.360
on putting, because I've done that for years. I will

869
00:41:32.480 --> 00:41:34.800
trace the line from the hole back to my ball,

870
00:41:34.840 --> 00:41:36.880
and as soon as my eyes get to the ball,

871
00:41:37.159 --> 00:41:38.639
I'm pulling off the stroke.

872
00:41:39.000 --> 00:41:42.920
Yeah, there you got it. And then and then all

873
00:41:43.000 --> 00:41:46.360
I'm saying is fine and good and do that. And

874
00:41:46.480 --> 00:41:49.440
that's externally what it may look like. And then target

875
00:41:49.519 --> 00:41:52.400
owing at golf, Colin has found that you can control

876
00:41:52.440 --> 00:41:55.000
your brain waves and get in the zone. It's in

877
00:41:55.119 --> 00:41:58.000
your mind when you're when you're looking at that ball.

878
00:41:58.079 --> 00:41:59.960
Once your eyes get to that ball, you're thinking about

879
00:42:00.079 --> 00:42:02.039
your target and you can only think about it if

880
00:42:02.079 --> 00:42:04.480
you saw it. If you can't think about it, that

881
00:42:04.559 --> 00:42:06.559
means you didn't see it. And that's when you see

882
00:42:06.599 --> 00:42:09.840
to our guys back out. You come back out and

883
00:42:09.880 --> 00:42:11.880
you're like, oh, didn't you didn't even see my target?

884
00:42:11.920 --> 00:42:14.480
What is my target? And you use that use that voice,

885
00:42:14.679 --> 00:42:17.159
you know that that goes through your head. Just control it.

886
00:42:17.320 --> 00:42:19.239
Either you control it or it's going to control you

887
00:42:20.039 --> 00:42:22.519
and use that voice to talk about your targets yourself.

888
00:42:22.960 --> 00:42:24.639
You say out loud if you want, but if you're

889
00:42:24.760 --> 00:42:27.119
around people, you just do it internally and inside your

890
00:42:27.119 --> 00:42:28.920
head and you're like, okay, that's why, justin, I love

891
00:42:29.000 --> 00:42:32.039
that spot. Set my club down. Okay, it's a club plant. Yeah,

892
00:42:32.119 --> 00:42:34.039
the clubs plant the spot on my hands where you

893
00:42:34.119 --> 00:42:35.079
know your hands are good.

894
00:42:35.119 --> 00:42:35.760
That is good.

895
00:42:36.760 --> 00:42:38.800
Uh, there's my checklist and the us I left to

896
00:42:38.840 --> 00:42:42.519
that spot. There's the ball stroke and the ball will

897
00:42:42.559 --> 00:42:44.880
go and so I left to that spot funnel into

898
00:42:44.920 --> 00:42:46.960
the hole. And now you got your our outcome. Now

899
00:42:47.920 --> 00:42:51.199
you just ask do we don't work about this orry outcome?

900
00:42:51.320 --> 00:42:53.960
If you did everything and you're happy with doing everything,

901
00:42:54.039 --> 00:42:57.440
you did everything that you can control, and you roll

902
00:42:57.480 --> 00:43:00.360
it over the inside left. Maybe you misread you couldn't

903
00:43:00.400 --> 00:43:02.719
just read it. That happens, or maybe it hits something.

904
00:43:02.840 --> 00:43:04.239
So if the ball doesn't go in the hole, there's

905
00:43:04.320 --> 00:43:07.039
no point in getting angry and mad and letting it

906
00:43:07.159 --> 00:43:10.599
affect your next shot or affect your day. Just notice

907
00:43:10.679 --> 00:43:13.159
that you misread it, and you can say that I

908
00:43:13.239 --> 00:43:16.199
hit it too hard. Then you know something that I

909
00:43:16.280 --> 00:43:18.360
need to adjust my target thing. Maybe greens are slower.

910
00:43:18.480 --> 00:43:20.840
You can't control these things, superintend and then mother greens

911
00:43:20.840 --> 00:43:24.760
today they're slower. Just notice that if they're slower. You know,

912
00:43:24.920 --> 00:43:26.960
some people change the you can change the weights before

913
00:43:27.000 --> 00:43:29.400
the round. But the easiest thing to do is just

914
00:43:29.480 --> 00:43:32.480
change your target. And now I feel put You pretend

915
00:43:32.519 --> 00:43:34.559
the hole further up the hill than it than it

916
00:43:34.639 --> 00:43:38.199
currently is, and then you hit it as if the

917
00:43:38.320 --> 00:43:43.239
holes behind the actual hole. So the holes behind you

918
00:43:43.280 --> 00:43:44.800
know there's three feet up the hill, You're gonna hit

919
00:43:44.800 --> 00:43:46.760
three feet behind it and the ball will just go

920
00:43:46.880 --> 00:43:48.719
in and you don't you know, you don't have to

921
00:43:48.719 --> 00:43:50.039
worry about it. And if you show up and the

922
00:43:50.119 --> 00:43:52.599
greens are faster, you bring your target closer to you.

923
00:43:53.000 --> 00:43:54.280
So all of a sudden you have a maybe you

924
00:43:54.400 --> 00:43:56.679
have a ten footer and the greens are faster and

925
00:43:56.800 --> 00:43:59.719
used to playing on you're playing some quotes you haven't

926
00:43:59.719 --> 00:44:03.840
played for bring a target closer to you. You know

927
00:44:05.320 --> 00:44:07.639
in your mind, Yeah, there's a hole that's just supposed

928
00:44:07.760 --> 00:44:08.960
to you. No, that's it.

929
00:44:09.360 --> 00:44:12.400
Now, what about untarget oriented golf? And I'm going to

930
00:44:12.480 --> 00:44:14.519
want to talk about aim point putting too, but on

931
00:44:14.679 --> 00:44:18.199
target oriented golf, the post shot routine. Where do you

932
00:44:18.360 --> 00:44:22.559
incorporate target oriented golf in your post shot?

933
00:44:24.199 --> 00:44:26.639
Well, A lots of people. Oh that's very important.

934
00:44:26.679 --> 00:44:27.280
That's a good question.

935
00:44:27.719 --> 00:44:30.800
Think you have to get feet in order to get better,

936
00:44:31.480 --> 00:44:34.000
you must get feedback. So you've got to watch where

937
00:44:34.039 --> 00:44:37.639
the ball went, all right, You've got to know where

938
00:44:37.800 --> 00:44:41.039
the ball goes in relation to your target. And then

939
00:44:41.079 --> 00:44:44.519
it helps me to think about the sensations I had

940
00:44:44.639 --> 00:44:50.239
when I was swinging okay, and then the out that

941
00:44:50.360 --> 00:44:52.559
I get the desire outcome. No, you got some outcome.

942
00:44:52.800 --> 00:44:56.320
It may not be the desired outcome, but those sensations

943
00:44:56.440 --> 00:45:00.320
led to that result. You accept that result, get back,

944
00:45:00.559 --> 00:45:02.360
and then go get your next shot. And that's what's

945
00:45:02.400 --> 00:45:04.840
great about the range. But you can use the range

946
00:45:04.920 --> 00:45:08.239
just to stand projectiles down this field, or you can

947
00:45:08.639 --> 00:45:13.079
go to the range and work on your desire outcome

948
00:45:13.119 --> 00:45:16.159
and think about the target and and and feel and

949
00:45:16.719 --> 00:45:18.679
golf really is just feeling an imagination.

950
00:45:19.800 --> 00:45:22.320
Now let's move over to aim point. All right, how

951
00:45:22.519 --> 00:45:23.840
how did you get started with that?

952
00:45:24.119 --> 00:45:24.320
Where?

953
00:45:24.639 --> 00:45:28.559
What is it about it that you like and how

954
00:45:28.639 --> 00:45:29.360
has it made you?

955
00:45:29.880 --> 00:45:33.280
Or you're the person you're caddy and carrying for, you're

956
00:45:33.440 --> 00:45:36.000
looping for uh, how does it make them better?

957
00:45:37.880 --> 00:45:42.360
Well? Really, am point Mark twen is doing a good

958
00:45:42.400 --> 00:45:47.119
job just having a systematic way. It's just physics, you know,

959
00:45:47.280 --> 00:45:52.000
of the ball rolling friction and that generates break. So

960
00:45:52.360 --> 00:45:54.719
side hill and then he has a chart you know

961
00:45:54.960 --> 00:45:57.280
that he's developed and he can just look at the numbers.

962
00:45:57.719 --> 00:46:02.000
And the gist of it is is downhill is a tightrope.

963
00:46:02.800 --> 00:46:07.840
So downhill is speed sensitives and aim sensitive. So I

964
00:46:07.960 --> 00:46:11.079
can it to a tightrope or you have this fine line,

965
00:46:11.199 --> 00:46:12.760
if you hit it a little bit too hard, it

966
00:46:12.840 --> 00:46:13.360
might not go in.

967
00:46:13.480 --> 00:46:15.000
You hear a little bit too easy, it's not gonna

968
00:46:15.039 --> 00:46:15.159
go in.

969
00:46:15.559 --> 00:46:21.679
An uphill is the funnel, you have wider margin for error, right,

970
00:46:21.840 --> 00:46:24.760
And basically that's what I'm going, you know, to work

971
00:46:24.840 --> 00:46:27.320
on a little bit today is just you know, the expressory.

972
00:46:27.400 --> 00:46:31.440
But basically I JD likes my opinion. When we're reading

973
00:46:31.480 --> 00:46:34.119
greens group, we read greens together, so we've got to

974
00:46:34.159 --> 00:46:36.679
have some sort of way to communicate and we use

975
00:46:37.400 --> 00:46:41.239
you know, I'm using target oriented golf to communicate the

976
00:46:41.360 --> 00:46:46.559
line I'm seeing. But basically we just you know, as

977
00:46:46.679 --> 00:46:50.000
greens get faster, you play more break downhill fall, it

978
00:46:50.079 --> 00:46:51.840
takes longer for the ball to get to the hole

979
00:46:51.840 --> 00:46:54.079
because you don't put as much energy into if you

980
00:46:54.119 --> 00:46:55.920
put the same amount of energy into if the ball

981
00:46:55.960 --> 00:46:57.960
will you know, roll straight over the hole and just

982
00:46:58.039 --> 00:47:00.519
keep going off the green. So you already know that

983
00:47:00.639 --> 00:47:02.840
that's not what we're gonna do, So you just keep

984
00:47:02.880 --> 00:47:06.360
bringing it back and basically you're trying to get the

985
00:47:06.400 --> 00:47:08.920
ball to roll about eight inches past all that's just

986
00:47:09.119 --> 00:47:12.679
the speed that makes the hole the biggest. The more

987
00:47:12.760 --> 00:47:14.920
you can get, we said earlier for amateur golfers, the

988
00:47:14.960 --> 00:47:18.199
more you can have those up to shots from left

989
00:47:18.320 --> 00:47:20.199
or right in the hole. I mean, see you're just

990
00:47:20.280 --> 00:47:22.960
pouring pouring the ball into the hole. You know it's

991
00:47:23.000 --> 00:47:25.159
just going to go in all day. You have wider margin,

992
00:47:25.239 --> 00:47:27.719
prayer ship shots, I can you know, I can take

993
00:47:27.880 --> 00:47:29.480
a green and drop balls around and say, you know,

994
00:47:30.440 --> 00:47:33.400
statistically you're going to miss. This is going to be

995
00:47:33.559 --> 00:47:38.360
very difficult to speed into this and line. Now there's

996
00:47:38.599 --> 00:47:42.239
you know, studies that show that downhill putt you are

997
00:47:42.320 --> 00:47:44.639
more likely to make, but that's skewed because you're more

998
00:47:44.760 --> 00:47:47.800
likely to get a downhill putt to the hole. So

999
00:47:47.880 --> 00:47:49.800
if it never gets there, it never goes there. Well,

1000
00:47:49.840 --> 00:47:52.400
that's true, But you want to pack in all day

1001
00:47:52.760 --> 00:47:56.159
or do you want to grinding out six footers? You know, saying.

1002
00:47:58.320 --> 00:47:59.360
Tap in, please.

1003
00:48:02.079 --> 00:48:05.000
Die, just die down to the hole, play more bike.

1004
00:48:06.039 --> 00:48:10.199
So that's and just communicating, communicating there and just working

1005
00:48:10.280 --> 00:48:10.760
with the sea.

1006
00:48:11.079 --> 00:48:16.920
So do you are you one of those guys that

1007
00:48:17.000 --> 00:48:20.639
when you're looking looking at your putts you're thinking, okay, uh,

1008
00:48:21.280 --> 00:48:23.719
you know one ball outside the cup or are you

1009
00:48:23.840 --> 00:48:26.360
looking at the line that it's going to take and

1010
00:48:26.400 --> 00:48:29.119
you're looking at on the break, You're looking at where

1011
00:48:29.159 --> 00:48:31.320
the apex of that break is and you're trying to

1012
00:48:31.360 --> 00:48:32.199
follow that line.

1013
00:48:35.039 --> 00:48:41.360
Yeah, it's weird for me. And you know, so I

1014
00:48:41.559 --> 00:48:44.199
always since I've been point off, I start to see

1015
00:48:44.280 --> 00:48:48.800
this like dark green. It's like darker green looks like

1016
00:48:48.840 --> 00:48:52.000
a shadow almost hardest my imagination does. So to me,

1017
00:48:52.119 --> 00:48:54.400
it's there, I see this line that goes through the

1018
00:48:54.480 --> 00:48:58.639
hole and it beings and it's darker green usually darker

1019
00:48:58.679 --> 00:49:00.519
in shade, and it's the width of the whole. It

1020
00:49:00.599 --> 00:49:02.119
comes all the way back to the ball for me,

1021
00:49:03.079 --> 00:49:06.480
and then just incorporating, you know, aain point shows me

1022
00:49:06.559 --> 00:49:08.760
how you know, if I walk in and it's four

1023
00:49:08.840 --> 00:49:11.400
percent slope, and I can feel that in my feet

1024
00:49:11.519 --> 00:49:13.440
by where my singer gravity goes when I step in.

1025
00:49:13.480 --> 00:49:16.079
I went agreeing with my free a lot on towards

1026
00:49:16.159 --> 00:49:18.159
help j you know, JB. And we have books on

1027
00:49:18.239 --> 00:49:21.360
tour that have the amount of slope and everything. So

1028
00:49:21.519 --> 00:49:24.320
anything around two percent is pretty flat when you start

1029
00:49:24.320 --> 00:49:26.679
getting two and a half thirty percent to fill that

1030
00:49:26.760 --> 00:49:29.519
in your feet. And so if I walk in and

1031
00:49:29.599 --> 00:49:31.000
I'm like you, I look at the book and it's

1032
00:49:31.079 --> 00:49:36.000
like four percent, and then we're on a nine every

1033
00:49:36.000 --> 00:49:38.480
angle to the whole. So we're hole high basically, which

1034
00:49:38.480 --> 00:49:40.679
everybody wants to be whole high. You never actually want

1035
00:49:40.719 --> 00:49:41.199
to be a hole.

1036
00:49:41.119 --> 00:49:42.599
High below the whole way.

1037
00:49:42.679 --> 00:49:46.719
Better, now that this stuck's going to break, you know

1038
00:49:46.880 --> 00:49:49.000
as much on his chart, Just know that it's going

1039
00:49:49.039 --> 00:49:50.679
to break as much as the hand. Whether the seed

1040
00:49:50.800 --> 00:49:54.239
is eleven, you know, fourteen or eight, it doesn't matter.

1041
00:49:54.239 --> 00:49:58.039
It's gonna break a lot. So you just need to

1042
00:49:58.079 --> 00:50:00.480
look a little higher. So now I'm seeing I'm kind

1043
00:50:00.519 --> 00:50:04.400
of I'm using looking backwards four percent or on the

1044
00:50:04.480 --> 00:50:06.760
ninth it's going to probably come in from somewhere to

1045
00:50:06.840 --> 00:50:09.039
the top of the hole now I'm in my line

1046
00:50:09.079 --> 00:50:10.920
out that way. Does that make sense? So I see

1047
00:50:10.960 --> 00:50:12.920
a dark shadow, and then there might be something on

1048
00:50:13.039 --> 00:50:16.679
my little shadow target wise, there's that ball mark again,

1049
00:50:17.039 --> 00:50:20.199
or there's a piece of sand or something that my

1050
00:50:20.280 --> 00:50:23.840
ball maybe not roll over, but I'm going to start

1051
00:50:23.880 --> 00:50:26.360
at that line and it becomes a straight putt's setting

1052
00:50:26.440 --> 00:50:28.320
up and I'm gonna put it straight up at that target.

1053
00:50:30.239 --> 00:50:30.920
Does that make sense?

1054
00:50:31.239 --> 00:50:33.360
Yes? It does, Yes it does.

1055
00:50:35.119 --> 00:50:39.199
So I incorporated maybe everything because every I really feel

1056
00:50:39.239 --> 00:50:42.280
like everybody's describing, you know, the same thing. But he's

1057
00:50:42.320 --> 00:50:45.559
everything I've learned to kind of guide mine. I play

1058
00:50:45.599 --> 00:50:47.719
so much golf, I just start seeing these dark lines

1059
00:50:47.840 --> 00:50:50.199
and now I'm using your knowledge I'm currently learning to

1060
00:50:50.280 --> 00:50:53.679
help me adjust that line. But really it all started

1061
00:50:53.760 --> 00:50:57.039
with even before it's called target warning and golf. I

1062
00:50:57.039 --> 00:50:59.840
mean that's how kids are doing that. They're already doing

1063
00:50:59.880 --> 00:51:02.280
it children when they play right.

1064
00:51:03.039 --> 00:51:04.440
How much golf do you get to play?

1065
00:51:06.000 --> 00:51:09.239
Yeah? Ever plays very much this year. But it's weird

1066
00:51:09.440 --> 00:51:13.360
because I'm getting I'm playing the last golf and just

1067
00:51:13.440 --> 00:51:16.800
from learning target orient and golf, I mean really feel

1068
00:51:16.880 --> 00:51:21.360
like I'm getting better and better without playing golf. But

1069
00:51:21.800 --> 00:51:23.440
that's a new experience for me. I used to feel

1070
00:51:23.440 --> 00:51:25.039
like I had the balls for two weeks before I

1071
00:51:25.199 --> 00:51:27.599
just get back to where I was. I never felt

1072
00:51:27.599 --> 00:51:29.559
like I was getting any better. Now I feel like

1073
00:51:29.599 --> 00:51:31.480
I don't catch a club for weeks and come home.

1074
00:51:32.000 --> 00:51:35.880
I mean, I am enjoying it more. My wife has

1075
00:51:35.920 --> 00:51:39.039
started playing, and I'm I'm just talking. What we talk

1076
00:51:39.119 --> 00:51:42.960
about was target orient golf. She is playing better. She's

1077
00:51:42.960 --> 00:51:47.079
broken fifty and she's doing She's probably only played twenty times.

1078
00:51:47.400 --> 00:51:49.039
She's broken white, so that's remarkable.

1079
00:51:49.920 --> 00:51:54.800
She broke fifty. I'm nine holes. Wow. Okay, yeah, I

1080
00:51:54.960 --> 00:51:57.119
mean from the ladies team, you know, but I mean.

1081
00:51:57.559 --> 00:52:05.079
We'll call those the fronties. Let's not be said, because

1082
00:52:05.119 --> 00:52:07.400
I know guys that should be playing the front ties,

1083
00:52:07.480 --> 00:52:08.719
but they're like, now they're the ladies.

1084
00:52:08.800 --> 00:52:09.519
He is, shut up.

1085
00:52:09.599 --> 00:52:10.760
You still can't shoot part?

1086
00:52:10.960 --> 00:52:11.639
Just play there?

1087
00:52:12.679 --> 00:52:16.559
Yes? Well, and again shots are coming someone within a

1088
00:52:16.639 --> 00:52:20.840
hunter yard anyway, right, So does it's irrelevant. It's basically like,

1089
00:52:20.920 --> 00:52:22.440
do you want to hit a seven iron into the

1090
00:52:22.519 --> 00:52:25.119
screen or a four iron or or maybe maybe you

1091
00:52:25.199 --> 00:52:28.800
know back in maybe it's a wood. So if you

1092
00:52:28.840 --> 00:52:30.079
have a wood, you like it, you might as well

1093
00:52:30.159 --> 00:52:32.320
play about TV your driver.

1094
00:52:32.480 --> 00:52:36.639
Right, nobody nobody wants to hit a Nobody wants to

1095
00:52:36.719 --> 00:52:40.159
hit a four iron to the green. That's that's painful.

1096
00:52:40.880 --> 00:52:41.000
Right.

1097
00:52:47.400 --> 00:52:51.719
Is there a a like a secret society of caddies

1098
00:52:51.800 --> 00:52:54.360
that you guys have this little club going on, or

1099
00:52:54.760 --> 00:52:58.519
because your buddies with JB, you guys just hang together

1100
00:52:58.599 --> 00:53:01.519
the whole time and keep to yours Or are there

1101
00:53:01.679 --> 00:53:05.199
things that you know that you do with other caddies.

1102
00:53:06.960 --> 00:53:12.039
No, I mean I'm not you know, I hang out with,

1103
00:53:12.599 --> 00:53:16.800
you know, other caddies, just depending on who is going

1104
00:53:16.880 --> 00:53:20.480
to be at each event. Some guys. You know, there's

1105
00:53:20.679 --> 00:53:22.760
points in the year where I'm maybe going to a

1106
00:53:22.840 --> 00:53:25.199
gym each week and working out, So there's caddies that

1107
00:53:25.599 --> 00:53:29.039
maybe I'll see at the gym. But pretty much I

1108
00:53:29.119 --> 00:53:33.880
hang out alone or with JB. Some with Patrick Sherry

1109
00:53:34.000 --> 00:53:37.320
who caddies for Forrey Madison. We've stayed together sometimes, but

1110
00:53:37.480 --> 00:53:41.679
mostly I'm I'm by myself with JB or sometimes my

1111
00:53:41.760 --> 00:53:42.599
wife and a boy girl.

1112
00:53:42.960 --> 00:53:45.599
M Now your boys getting old though, He's gonna start

1113
00:53:45.639 --> 00:53:47.000
going to school. That's gonna make it tough.

1114
00:53:47.840 --> 00:53:50.000
Yeah, he's been. Yeah, he's been going to school. So

1115
00:53:50.599 --> 00:53:52.440
through the year, you know, we just we do the

1116
00:53:52.519 --> 00:53:56.400
best we can with what obstacles come up. So golf

1117
00:53:56.440 --> 00:53:57.599
helps us understand that too.

1118
00:54:00.440 --> 00:54:03.159
So but okay, so now during a round or during

1119
00:54:03.199 --> 00:54:05.719
a weekend, when you guys are playing and you're paired

1120
00:54:05.840 --> 00:54:09.400
up with the same guy for a couple of days. Yeah,

1121
00:54:09.639 --> 00:54:11.599
what what goes on between the caddies?

1122
00:54:11.639 --> 00:54:11.800
Then?

1123
00:54:11.920 --> 00:54:14.960
Are you guys communicating? You you have little side bets. Oh,

1124
00:54:15.000 --> 00:54:16.679
I don't want to use the word bets, you know,

1125
00:54:18.400 --> 00:54:20.360
you know, because you probably can't. But you got little

1126
00:54:20.400 --> 00:54:22.440
games going on that you played between yourselves.

1127
00:54:23.280 --> 00:54:26.719
Yeah. No, I've never I've never had any side bets

1128
00:54:26.760 --> 00:54:29.440
or anything like that going on. We've not played, you know,

1129
00:54:29.599 --> 00:54:31.760
any any short of games. I mean, we just we

1130
00:54:31.920 --> 00:54:34.880
might talk, you know, and uh, there might be a

1131
00:54:35.000 --> 00:54:37.400
couple of minutes, Uh we'll I'll be sitting on a

1132
00:54:37.480 --> 00:54:40.159
te waiting and somebody will tell this a story or

1133
00:54:40.239 --> 00:54:40.840
something else.

1134
00:54:40.880 --> 00:54:42.119
So that's that's been fun.

1135
00:54:42.719 --> 00:54:47.320
But mostly it's just, uh, you know, you're you get

1136
00:54:47.400 --> 00:54:49.800
in the moment and you're just you're working on you're

1137
00:54:49.840 --> 00:54:52.920
doing you do everything the exact same to help you

1138
00:54:53.000 --> 00:54:56.239
get into that zone. So we're just in there trying

1139
00:54:56.239 --> 00:54:59.760
to get in the zone, you know, and so just

1140
00:54:59.800 --> 00:55:03.679
as you know, it's if we can help each other

1141
00:55:03.800 --> 00:55:06.920
rate bunkers if somebody's coming into some trouble or something,

1142
00:55:07.000 --> 00:55:10.199
you know, and and kind of help in that regard

1143
00:55:10.599 --> 00:55:14.159
getting the pan, wiping each other, the players ball off

1144
00:55:14.239 --> 00:55:15.719
on the green, you know, if they just come out

1145
00:55:15.719 --> 00:55:18.000
of the bunker and things like that. But now not

1146
00:55:18.079 --> 00:55:21.360
a real you know, secret society or anything like that.

1147
00:55:21.559 --> 00:55:23.320
We mostly there's so much money involved.

1148
00:55:23.440 --> 00:55:25.199
You know, these days, we don't even travel together.

1149
00:55:25.280 --> 00:55:27.519
I heard and you know, in years past, lots of

1150
00:55:27.599 --> 00:55:31.239
caddies traveled together and drove together, but you know, anymore,

1151
00:55:31.360 --> 00:55:34.119
it's just, uh, the game has changed so much. So

1152
00:55:34.239 --> 00:55:36.119
much money is involved, you know what I mean.

1153
00:55:36.519 --> 00:55:43.159
Yeah, yeah, so you're you're competing. You're competing too, I mean.

1154
00:55:43.599 --> 00:55:46.039
Yeah, in the sense really the name of our game

1155
00:55:46.199 --> 00:55:49.000
is how good can you get your player to play? Really,

1156
00:55:49.960 --> 00:55:51.320
you know what I mean, that's just it.

1157
00:55:51.760 --> 00:55:55.440
So you're a coach without a coach here, that's what

1158
00:55:55.599 --> 00:55:55.840
you are.

1159
00:55:56.360 --> 00:55:59.280
You know, you're basically a coach. Someday he's a player

1160
00:55:59.400 --> 00:56:02.840
needs something, you know, maybe a little bit different, they

1161
00:56:02.880 --> 00:56:04.719
need it phrased a little bit different way, or they

1162
00:56:04.800 --> 00:56:07.599
need more motivation. Some days they need less motivation, you know,

1163
00:56:07.719 --> 00:56:11.079
some days just it's just reading your guy, I mean,

1164
00:56:11.119 --> 00:56:14.039
which is great for me. I mean, Jabi and I

1165
00:56:14.119 --> 00:56:16.360
grew up together. I mean, we really know each other

1166
00:56:16.480 --> 00:56:19.079
and we just try to really use that to our advantage.

1167
00:56:19.400 --> 00:56:22.559
You know, so interesting.

1168
00:56:23.079 --> 00:56:25.960
Are there things that you do that would help us?

1169
00:56:27.400 --> 00:56:29.239
Like the first thing that comes to mind is like

1170
00:56:30.559 --> 00:56:33.360
I've I've never been a big fan of tossing a

1171
00:56:33.400 --> 00:56:35.400
couple blades of grass in the air to tell me

1172
00:56:35.480 --> 00:56:38.159
what's going on with the wind. A I have trouble

1173
00:56:38.239 --> 00:56:41.400
finding where the grass went when it does. But it

1174
00:56:41.519 --> 00:56:46.320
also I find that tossing grass, Okay, thet the wind

1175
00:56:46.440 --> 00:56:48.760
is blowing in that direction, but it's not telling me

1176
00:56:49.320 --> 00:56:50.840
is the wind swirling? Is it?

1177
00:56:51.400 --> 00:56:53.039
Is it going you know, hard.

1178
00:56:52.960 --> 00:56:53.559
Left to right?

1179
00:56:53.800 --> 00:56:54.360
Is it? You know?

1180
00:56:54.719 --> 00:56:57.440
Are there other things that you have found that work

1181
00:56:57.559 --> 00:56:59.559
for you or you've seen other caddies do that?

1182
00:57:00.239 --> 00:57:03.159
Oh? Yeah, I mean, yeah, that's that's that's what I

1183
00:57:03.280 --> 00:57:05.719
do every day. I just checked the forecast of the wind.

1184
00:57:05.760 --> 00:57:07.480
There's a couple of different sides, you know, I might

1185
00:57:07.599 --> 00:57:09.559
use the Weather Channel on it, and so it says,

1186
00:57:09.599 --> 00:57:12.639
you know, south southeast, you know, and then there's another

1187
00:57:12.800 --> 00:57:15.440
app I use. You're not allowed to use it during

1188
00:57:15.480 --> 00:57:17.880
tournament play, but it's just that you know, the beginning

1189
00:57:17.920 --> 00:57:20.719
of the day, primost wind gives you a wind direction

1190
00:57:21.039 --> 00:57:24.760
and gives you the exact direction, like two hundred and

1191
00:57:24.800 --> 00:57:28.320
forty degrees, you know, so if you want, like I'm

1192
00:57:28.320 --> 00:57:30.119
a caddy, I'll use a compass. Most people aren't going

1193
00:57:30.159 --> 00:57:32.039
to use a compass, so you just know it's south

1194
00:57:32.079 --> 00:57:34.960
southwest and you figure out which way south southwest is.

1195
00:57:35.000 --> 00:57:37.119
And when I'm playing at home now, just from being

1196
00:57:37.159 --> 00:57:40.280
a caddy in my experiences, I know that in general

1197
00:57:40.360 --> 00:57:42.519
the wind comes from south southwest. When I'm at home

1198
00:57:42.559 --> 00:57:45.239
playing in Campbellsville, you know, it shifts in the morning

1199
00:57:45.320 --> 00:57:48.320
it's in, so it's like an opposite direction. And then

1200
00:57:48.360 --> 00:57:51.039
at about two o'clock at south southwest. So it's fun

1201
00:57:51.079 --> 00:57:52.760
for me because I can hear it really far down

1202
00:57:52.760 --> 00:57:55.599
wind on a few of these far formoles, so I like,

1203
00:57:55.760 --> 00:57:58.119
you know, I just like those holes, so I like

1204
00:57:58.199 --> 00:58:00.239
to play it about that time so I can catch win.

1205
00:58:00.320 --> 00:58:02.159
It's like being a surfer. I talked to some tudle

1206
00:58:02.199 --> 00:58:04.320
surf I've talked to surfers and they do the same

1207
00:58:04.400 --> 00:58:07.159
thing with catching waves. I'm just doing it with wind

1208
00:58:08.639 --> 00:58:13.639
and and what is the app again? Primos p r

1209
00:58:13.719 --> 00:58:16.440
I ms primost wind.

1210
00:58:17.119 --> 00:58:19.679
Okay, good, well we'll remember to put that in the

1211
00:58:19.719 --> 00:58:20.239
show notes.

1212
00:58:20.519 --> 00:58:21.119
And do you.

1213
00:58:23.559 --> 00:58:23.800
Hmm?

1214
00:58:24.519 --> 00:58:28.320
So uh, you said you use a compass? Is that?

1215
00:58:28.639 --> 00:58:30.079
Are you allowed to have one on the course.

1216
00:58:30.000 --> 00:58:32.280
During We're allowed to change that, We're allowed. I check.

1217
00:58:32.440 --> 00:58:34.440
I couldn't believe it, so I keep checking and asking

1218
00:58:34.440 --> 00:58:36.280
you to get hired, me asking, But yeah, we're allowed

1219
00:58:36.320 --> 00:58:38.559
to use a compass during a round. Seeing some caddies,

1220
00:58:38.559 --> 00:58:39.960
you know at Bay Hill there was a guy who's

1221
00:58:40.000 --> 00:58:43.119
the compass, so you know I use a compass, just

1222
00:58:43.400 --> 00:58:46.840
uh in general south southwest. And then if you feel

1223
00:58:46.880 --> 00:58:49.360
a swirl when you're playing, so you're throwing a grass,

1224
00:58:49.400 --> 00:58:50.960
you're seeing these swirls, so you throw it the rest

1225
00:58:51.000 --> 00:58:52.519
one time and it's blowing it to the left, and

1226
00:58:52.599 --> 00:58:54.079
you throw it up again, it's blowing it to the right.

1227
00:58:54.400 --> 00:58:56.760
But if you know it's generally supposed to be down.

1228
00:58:57.679 --> 00:59:00.239
Unless you look at the tree tops and every thing

1229
00:59:00.360 --> 00:59:04.199
is moving where the trees are the same direction, you

1230
00:59:04.280 --> 00:59:05.800
can just tell a lot about the tree tops and

1231
00:59:05.920 --> 00:59:08.239
just notice and then noticing how much of the tree

1232
00:59:08.320 --> 00:59:10.599
is moving. If it's just believe you got a lot

1233
00:59:10.599 --> 00:59:11.960
of win to worry about, and you can strike a

1234
00:59:12.000 --> 00:59:14.960
golf ball well when is not really going to affect

1235
00:59:15.000 --> 00:59:18.400
it anyway. But if you're seeing you know, the branches

1236
00:59:18.559 --> 00:59:21.360
closer to the trunk start to move, you know, you're

1237
00:59:21.400 --> 00:59:24.199
talking about some major wind. So you might want to

1238
00:59:24.280 --> 00:59:26.920
play and you're trying to get to that spot you know,

1239
00:59:26.960 --> 00:59:29.440
whether it's shipping or putting or whatever there below the

1240
00:59:29.480 --> 00:59:30.480
hole in that funnel.

1241
00:59:30.599 --> 00:59:31.400
That's what you're trying to do.

1242
00:59:31.719 --> 00:59:33.199
And is the flag helpful at all?

1243
00:59:34.800 --> 00:59:37.800
I mean you can't. I just think if you're looking

1244
00:59:37.840 --> 00:59:40.320
at the tree tops because unless you're gonna hit your

1245
00:59:40.599 --> 00:59:44.199
golf ball, flag high all the way there, right like

1246
00:59:44.320 --> 00:59:46.599
if you're looking up if you have trees around, But

1247
00:59:46.880 --> 00:59:49.199
if you don't have any trees around, then yeah, you

1248
00:59:49.239 --> 00:59:50.639
can look at the flag and you see it one

1249
00:59:50.719 --> 00:59:52.440
hundred and fifty yards or two in yards away if

1250
00:59:52.440 --> 00:59:55.760
it's blowing straight down and where you're standing it feels

1251
00:59:55.800 --> 01:00:00.280
like it's blowing straight in. You know, in general, I

1252
01:00:00.280 --> 01:00:02.000
would play with the flags doing because that's where the

1253
01:00:02.079 --> 01:00:05.039
ball is losing speed. It comes off the face as

1254
01:00:05.079 --> 01:00:06.840
all the speed so the wind's not really affecting it

1255
01:00:07.159 --> 01:00:10.000
where you're standing anyway. It's when the ball loses speed

1256
01:00:10.159 --> 01:00:11.599
that the wind starts to move it around.

1257
01:00:13.119 --> 01:00:15.960
Have you ever noticed if anybody in the gallery is

1258
01:00:16.360 --> 01:00:19.320
maybe smoking and you can see what the smoke is doing,

1259
01:00:19.440 --> 01:00:21.599
is it's coming off their cigarette.

1260
01:00:21.159 --> 01:00:22.599
Or the Yeah, I'm looking.

1261
01:00:22.679 --> 01:00:25.000
Yeah, I'm looking at all all all of that smoking

1262
01:00:25.360 --> 01:00:27.679
at the clubhouse or by the clubhouse, and you know

1263
01:00:27.960 --> 01:00:30.800
that maybe they have a chimney with their cooking, and

1264
01:00:30.920 --> 01:00:33.559
watching that smoke and watching the American flags, you know,

1265
01:00:33.960 --> 01:00:36.920
the stadium, the stadium feet sometimes have flags. I'm looking

1266
01:00:37.000 --> 01:00:40.599
at all of those, you know, comparing feeling what it

1267
01:00:40.719 --> 01:00:42.280
feels like to me it's hitting me in the face,

1268
01:00:42.400 --> 01:00:45.719
or coming off the right, checking checking, uh, you know,

1269
01:00:45.880 --> 01:00:48.039
just the wind. Dire actually have a compass drawn in

1270
01:00:48.119 --> 01:00:50.199
our book, so that's an easy way. It'll actually have

1271
01:00:50.280 --> 01:00:52.639
to pull out a compass. Unles. I want the exact

1272
01:00:52.719 --> 01:00:55.920
between employe degrees if I want to say it's helping

1273
01:00:55.960 --> 01:00:58.599
off the right. But in general, you can look at

1274
01:00:58.639 --> 01:01:00.639
the compass that I have drawn in the most people

1275
01:01:00.679 --> 01:01:03.000
don't even know which way the golf course has turned.

1276
01:01:03.119 --> 01:01:05.960
So just getting familiar with that would help people a lot. Sure,

1277
01:01:05.960 --> 01:01:09.239
you know, because I mean it sounds like you're mainly

1278
01:01:09.280 --> 01:01:11.320
talking You're not talking about people that play different places

1279
01:01:11.360 --> 01:01:13.400
all the time, but just going out to normal club, Like, hey,

1280
01:01:13.440 --> 01:01:15.679
do you know that you know has just win? Is

1281
01:01:15.760 --> 01:01:18.000
this hole? Generally when you plays it down down went

1282
01:01:18.119 --> 01:01:21.000
off the right, you know, or you know lots of

1283
01:01:21.039 --> 01:01:23.119
different things. You know, playing before a storm is that

1284
01:01:23.280 --> 01:01:24.840
you know, if there's a storm coming in your golf,

1285
01:01:24.880 --> 01:01:28.440
one's going to go really far, you know, like I've been,

1286
01:01:29.079 --> 01:01:31.000
you're playing just up until they blow the horn or

1287
01:01:31.039 --> 01:01:32.519
there's lightning, or you don't know if the storm is

1288
01:01:32.519 --> 01:01:34.079
going to hit or miss. You know, but the temperature

1289
01:01:34.159 --> 01:01:37.079
drops and he's been playing before and that happened, right, Yeah,

1290
01:01:37.760 --> 01:01:40.119
Well the golf all goes further. So normally you hit

1291
01:01:40.119 --> 01:01:42.159
a seven iron, you know, from maybe one hundred and

1292
01:01:42.199 --> 01:01:43.519
fifty yards or you know, I don't know how far

1293
01:01:43.519 --> 01:01:45.599
you hit a seven iron. You might want to bump

1294
01:01:45.639 --> 01:01:47.239
it down to an eight, you know, especially if the

1295
01:01:47.280 --> 01:01:49.199
players to be short. That's the first question. You want

1296
01:01:49.199 --> 01:01:50.920
to be long and short here, they want to be

1297
01:01:50.960 --> 01:01:52.920
long and short, and then you can make an assessment

1298
01:01:52.920 --> 01:01:55.079
from there. If there's a storm coming in, your hate

1299
01:01:55.079 --> 01:01:57.519
iron is going to go pretty far because the baron

1300
01:01:57.599 --> 01:01:59.840
had pressure tends to drop, you know.

1301
01:02:00.800 --> 01:02:04.840
M so, but yeah, well you so, like you and

1302
01:02:05.000 --> 01:02:07.159
JB grew up in the South, so you're very used

1303
01:02:07.199 --> 01:02:11.360
to humid weather. I would think, So, do you maybe

1304
01:02:11.519 --> 01:02:15.079
perhaps carry some talcum or some baby powder in your

1305
01:02:15.119 --> 01:02:17.320
bag so that you can keep your hands a little

1306
01:02:17.400 --> 01:02:21.000
drier and then when you clap your hands and to

1307
01:02:21.119 --> 01:02:23.719
get the powder off, you'll see a little puff of

1308
01:02:24.360 --> 01:02:25.480
that blowing around.

1309
01:02:25.559 --> 01:02:27.280
Yeah, that's smart.

1310
01:02:29.119 --> 01:02:30.639
We don't but yeah, you know exactly.

1311
01:02:31.760 --> 01:02:33.920
I wonder if you kept some talcolm powder in your

1312
01:02:34.000 --> 01:02:36.480
bag to do that to dry off his hands, if

1313
01:02:36.559 --> 01:02:39.519
somebody would like not, that's illegal, you can't use it.

1314
01:02:39.559 --> 01:02:40.880
It's like, what about drying my hands?

1315
01:02:40.960 --> 01:02:41.760
Dude, leave me alone?

1316
01:02:41.880 --> 01:02:44.440
You know. Yeah, we would, Yeah, we would check everything

1317
01:02:44.800 --> 01:02:47.440
if we make any changes to our you're basically just

1318
01:02:47.519 --> 01:02:49.800
talking about a change in routine. The right thing that

1319
01:02:49.800 --> 01:02:51.920
we're gonna shire. We're going to make sure that you know,

1320
01:02:51.960 --> 01:02:53.719
we're checking the rules community at the beginning, and we

1321
01:02:53.719 --> 01:02:56.159
need to make sure that that's okay. Us a rain

1322
01:02:56.199 --> 01:02:59.320
grip for the reason that black strip that he uses,

1323
01:02:59.679 --> 01:03:02.760
you know, basically it's because of the humidity and everything.

1324
01:03:02.960 --> 01:03:05.679
You just you go through those leather grips as fast. Uh,

1325
01:03:06.079 --> 01:03:08.039
this material that they make the rain grips out of,

1326
01:03:08.199 --> 01:03:11.079
which is smart and you don't have to change grips

1327
01:03:11.159 --> 01:03:13.119
throughout the day. Gloves.

1328
01:03:13.880 --> 01:03:16.079
How many gloves and how many gloves in a h

1329
01:03:16.280 --> 01:03:16.880
in a weekend?

1330
01:03:16.920 --> 01:03:17.719
Will he go through.

1331
01:03:19.119 --> 01:03:21.639
One to day really like he's one to day just

1332
01:03:21.719 --> 01:03:24.559
a new glove each day. Yeah hmm.

1333
01:03:25.159 --> 01:03:26.679
And let's see, we'll listen.

1334
01:03:26.920 --> 01:03:29.280
We know, next time you play, I want I want

1335
01:03:29.280 --> 01:03:31.280
you to. I want you to really if you like

1336
01:03:31.360 --> 01:03:34.559
this idea, I want you to consider having some talking

1337
01:03:34.719 --> 01:03:36.880
with you and if he and if he uses it,

1338
01:03:37.480 --> 01:03:39.599
when when he slaps his hand and look over to

1339
01:03:39.639 --> 01:03:42.679
a camera and wink, and then you will know, we'll

1340
01:03:42.760 --> 01:03:43.800
know that it was from us.

1341
01:03:45.679 --> 01:03:47.920
Well, and then some of the other thing. Now we're

1342
01:03:48.000 --> 01:03:51.119
you know, differentage. Everybody has some sort of technology, whether

1343
01:03:51.199 --> 01:03:53.920
it's on their watch or a range bonder, you know

1344
01:03:54.079 --> 01:03:58.199
for a GPS, whatever it is they use. Just start

1345
01:03:59.119 --> 01:04:03.079
some sort of how far your golf ball actually goes.

1346
01:04:04.159 --> 01:04:07.199
That'll help people out so much because if you ask somebody, well,

1347
01:04:07.239 --> 01:04:09.760
how far is your seven iron? How far are you

1348
01:04:09.760 --> 01:04:11.760
that you're seven iron. They'll say a general number like

1349
01:04:11.840 --> 01:04:14.960
you know, one fifty five whatever, one fifty some people

1350
01:04:15.039 --> 01:04:18.960
one a whatever. Well, when you start playing, and when

1351
01:04:19.039 --> 01:04:21.320
you do that, the fetes fast hold you a driver

1352
01:04:21.519 --> 01:04:23.039
there a five iron, I had two in the yards,

1353
01:04:23.039 --> 01:04:26.320
I had a five iron. I had two hundred two

1354
01:04:26.360 --> 01:04:30.199
the pen, and I have a ball mark next to

1355
01:04:30.239 --> 01:04:33.519
the whole. It flew two hundred yards, but it probably didn't.

1356
01:04:33.519 --> 01:04:35.440
It's more like one ninety. And I was trying to

1357
01:04:35.480 --> 01:04:38.079
be short, so just trying to notice and then write

1358
01:04:38.119 --> 01:04:40.360
that down like five iron one ninety. That's that's the

1359
01:04:40.480 --> 01:04:43.360
biggest difference that tour guys have that well, they have

1360
01:04:43.440 --> 01:04:45.480
a caddy. So that's that's one of the things I do,

1361
01:04:45.920 --> 01:04:47.800
right down how far he hits every shot, how far

1362
01:04:47.920 --> 01:04:50.119
the ball flew in the air, So even in the

1363
01:04:50.159 --> 01:04:51.880
fair way, if I can find a ball mark where

1364
01:04:51.960 --> 01:04:54.239
his driver landed. And we had three twenty five to

1365
01:04:54.320 --> 01:04:57.679
cover a bunker and then covered about ten steps, I

1366
01:04:57.760 --> 01:05:00.440
knew that ball flew three thirty five. All right, drivers

1367
01:05:00.920 --> 01:05:03.679
very top, you know, and then we know if it's

1368
01:05:03.719 --> 01:05:06.360
running out how far hot did it run out? Twenty yards?

1369
01:05:06.400 --> 01:05:08.239
They run out thirty yards, Like, what is the ball

1370
01:05:08.320 --> 01:05:10.800
generally doing the name of the game is moving your

1371
01:05:10.840 --> 01:05:15.599
golf ball around this course. So knowing how far you

1372
01:05:15.679 --> 01:05:18.559
hit it is very important and people don't yep.

1373
01:05:19.079 --> 01:05:23.199
Very important, very important. Yeah, there's a there's a product

1374
01:05:23.280 --> 01:05:26.079
out now. There's a product out now called game Golf

1375
01:05:26.280 --> 01:05:28.519
that I know that Have you seen it?

1376
01:05:29.760 --> 01:05:32.000
Yeah? I saw it. I just couldn't understand why you

1377
01:05:32.039 --> 01:05:33.039
wouldn't just write it down.

1378
01:05:34.000 --> 01:05:36.960
Well, I'll tell you. It's interesting because I know that

1379
01:05:38.280 --> 01:05:42.199
Lee Westwood, Graham McDowell, and now Jim Furika are using it.

1380
01:05:42.960 --> 01:05:46.119
I actually played golf with the CEO of the company

1381
01:05:47.239 --> 01:05:49.440
last week and I did a video that's going to

1382
01:05:49.480 --> 01:05:51.440
be coming up and an episode's going to be coming

1383
01:05:51.480 --> 01:05:55.760
up with him soon. It for me writing down I

1384
01:05:55.800 --> 01:05:59.400
don't have the wherewithal to write down every shot and

1385
01:05:59.519 --> 01:06:01.519
what how or it went and what it did. But

1386
01:06:01.760 --> 01:06:04.079
when I take when I use this thing and I

1387
01:06:04.199 --> 01:06:05.519
take it off at the end of the round and

1388
01:06:05.519 --> 01:06:07.639
I plug it into my computer, it gives me all

1389
01:06:07.679 --> 01:06:13.039
that information and it gives me statistics. It's really helped

1390
01:06:13.079 --> 01:06:15.719
my game and what it where it's helped my game

1391
01:06:15.840 --> 01:06:17.880
more is showing me where my holes are. In my

1392
01:06:18.000 --> 01:06:20.840
game and what I should be working on. I think

1393
01:06:21.119 --> 01:06:22.119
I think it's a great product.

1394
01:06:23.159 --> 01:06:23.920
Yeah, that's awesome.

1395
01:06:24.039 --> 01:06:27.280
Yeah, we'll talk more about that soon in the upcoming episodes.

1396
01:06:27.599 --> 01:06:31.119
Hey Brandon, this has been a long time. I know
