· auto-generatedAll right welcome to a golf club Michael hey welcome to my part of the world no but guys we are going to be playing 8 n and 10 three holes right three challeng Par Four drivable with this win par three and then a par five this down wind so Michael you've been playing pretty well we're going give you the honor out here today on this little match but lead us show tell me about a golf club intricacies there's lots of kind of runoffs lots of slurs out here and you're talking me hitting driver down here trying to get it to the green we said send it last time I've hit one driver and it was good okay let's see if we can roll it again huh holy cow that was good hole in one bounce to the right A little I mean that is insane che's that want say that one huh gol yeah get little thank you little higher flight on that one yeah a little high on the face and not as not going be as far as you but Boogie cam with Jorge right here boogy cam one thing I love about you guys that like Europeans I love some of the lingo and the language that we don't get to experience over here cuz it's just I don't know it's just different fun so buggy I app I appreciate that anyway C yeah there we go sorry I'm with it's a boogy where we're at so obviously we've already done some of the training but how's it really impacted your game over the last year two years whilst you've been training a little bit more cuz as we talked about you're not now and out fitness guy speaking yeah I think I mean again YouTube is my first that's my career now make YouTube videos but I still want to be a highle golfer like for even if I'm not playing tours I want to low scores and be ready if I'm team or if I have a tournament coming up I won't be able to compete and so I think the biggest thing it's allow or it's allowed me to stay competitive when I do te up but it's kept my body in a position where when I'm training and getting ready for a tournament my swing feels good and strong and stable and something I haven't felt really since probably College playing golf good feel again I've probably picked up a little bit of distance yes but it's mainly just being a stronger a little better athlete you can see it you can see the progression of my golf swing I think that's the cool thing is looking back at this you know 2020 2021 it I mean it l it was good but like there was something it wasn't as athletic it wasn't as fluid and now you look at the swings and what my swing has progress to now still it's not technically that much different but you can tell it's like an athletic move stronger and I've picked up just a little bit of distance so it's it's kept it's kept my body the older we get it's harder to like to keep it all and so I think it's it's helped me stay competitive and in a good spot to be to play in these tournaments and at a pretty high level you hit a good self out the de now let's go find any shot go in it's in oh no oh my gosh sorry I loud you guys ears the shot that good all day let's go little check coming up to the was nice that's I need if I again I play with Wesley all the time he's got one of the best short games in the world so it's it's nice to be able to hit shots that look like something he would do again it's that's that's what I need to get better I need to get that better so I can play better in these tournaments that's the tap in bir right there buddy let's [Music] go it left man still pretty good you outside looking birdie wanted to wrap the face a little try and run it out but P it's good it's good it's a weird putt good putt good par I mean tap in pars 160ish wind should be down a little bit but it's a little cooler so I'm going probably play once I'm probably going to play the number maybe 165 just get there pin High little 3/4 eight iron just a little right draw it in there stay aggressive no way T shot tell you this straight down the flag huh yeah I hit that I mean I think the wind's not really we haven't had the wind all day though right yeah we haven't take the camera right down the great swing I think it I think he's probably playing close to like at least 165 what do you hit eight maybe moreit a little hit eight iron yeah hit it pretty good too after watching you hit that I'm going to hit the same eight but take a little off it try and cut it up there mhm nice soft Landing that is terrible get down well that's th I commit to that flight man I can't commit to that f as much as I want to stay underneath it not good you feel your game is different when the camera clicks on cuz you just put that one in tap in b as soon as the camera kept got rolling yeah I don't I don't know I mean it might make me like focus a little more because one thing people wouldn't think oh YouTube golf filming is similar to tournament golf but for me I treat probably too much sometimes YouTube golf like tournament like I want to make sure that I focus go through my routines because I know if I can use this as preparation when I do get in to Q School PJ tour events that I've actually been even though I've haven't been playing tournaments I view these tournaments so it's kind of like preparing me and like what you just saw if you guys saw Wesley just finished second in a PJ Tour event I mean a lot of people think oh well that came out of nowhere but he's been playing good in these YouTube videos and he treats them like he doesn't feel as much pressure as I do but he feels some a little bit of pressure on these videos he doesn't want to lose to Grant myself to Micah and so it's funny I think sometimes I do play a little bit better on camera cuz I do get a little more focused we off camera sometimes you know you get in these practice days where you're not focused like you should be you go through the process right yeah when you need to hit the shot you need to hit the shot the deal God man wedge game looks good we need to turn those cameras on earlier cuz my chipping has not been this good all day today show us how it's done I'll show you something we got to clear all of this face and then should run down from the right it's a tough one right to left down working away or working downhill fast hands lots of [Music] left oh not you got a that B that one huh yeah that bounc the bit that one [Music] oh do it ah check spin rolling around these greens there's a lot of movement [Music] huh nice good saved it good save got be making double you on the camera there five you hit the Fairway here you will have a wedge in it is a tight Fairway you got to be more on the left side so you started just right that big bushy tree you see on the left and just send it two shot lead two shot lead come on lock in commit to your target [Music] the hype is real man that's good now you okay smoked your stuff so hoping the hey just do the same you did on the last Drive yeah well that's it I'm uping run out I had two straight drives that might be the limit today might have ran out but not really hit it pretty good but that yeah I mean it's good strikes just right is a tough place to be on this hole no fense so if you got events coming up what's it going to look like kind of revving up the body ring up the swing to feel like you're ready to go so right now I'm preparing for another my second ever PJ Tour event and got a spot in the mytle Beach Classic which first ever PJ tour vent and Myrtle Beach here in South Carolina my home state so super excited about that like very blessed and lucky and to be able to like to get a spot to play but I'm excited because I've played in one I know what to expect I've played well in one but I think the big thing for me is physically my game everything is pretty solid so if I can get my body to match up where like the swing is and the short game everything I think we can you know winning that's a that's that's a stretch but I feel like I can compete more than I did in the last one because you know I'm I'm going to know what to expect swings in a good spot so if I get my body pretty dialed I don't know man I'm I'm excited so that's kind of what you know I focus is funny now when I'm focusing for tournaments it's not as much the encourse stuff that I'm doing that I that determines how good I'm going to play It's the stuff I'm doing in the gym and working out and the one thing that I try to do is like hey I need to make sure I get two to three workouts a week two weeks in or two weeks before the event get my body in a good spot so I know come tournament time it's going to be where I need to be then it's just you know I can work on golf swing and strategy and short game and not have to worry about like crap I need to you know get my body strong so I can walk 72 holes in a week or more time in the backyard yeah Garden if you want to go with another one a garden that's what we call it man huh let's Go's try and find his ball huh what yard we got roughly we at one front of the green 165 is oh good shot ah sit a little bit that's great that's a good spot yeah needs to be more aggressive to down man all right 38 downwind I mean just going to have to believe it's like a 135 shot but just a full pitch and wedge right at the pin end up hopefully 10 12 ft left in a perfect world no we're going right at it that's silly strike is it getting there all right on line man yeah it's kind of where I was trying to be a like golly why would we not start filming on the first holea come on how'd that look do that look good do it look athletic that was compression that was nice through the ball I feel like I'm not being judged by you but I want to like be a an athlete and do things that look athletic and strong it's looked good so far man that the sequence in through the middle it's turn out real nice and then the hands are just the last to get there so pretty much on point in terms of how you turn through the ball it's good to see Miss it's impressive it's impressive to see how consistent you are and how you actually put it out on the car man good thank you I want to take my 6 months of British rust into account if that's all right no honestly that's like again I knew all this coming into it but your game is solid fact the weather's been awful you know you have this what you're doing fulltime you're not I'm actually playing and practicing is kind of my job now and so like all things consider your game has been solid today it really is like you have a very good base and so like if you put any work and effort into it I feel like you can play some good golf so what time on the cost yeah I'm down let's go no oh the very unique birdie go hey it's I mean just the stuff in the middle man couple of those shots [Music] no reactions to that yeah I mean first was awful but second was great you know so equals out just a net zero different grasses different grasses I mean it's real yeah I put that eagle on me made me feel good I need it for my confidence see like these are the putts are just so like yours is hammering this way and I feel like mine could go left from where I am like what do I what do I believe yes how about it little right to left to right there you go hey what a finish there Eagle come on that gives me confidence going in tournament season so let's go best go for on YouTube move trim player Oh Wesley is well is there gray area there I it is but he like yes he's but
