      When I was playing a lot there was a guy in my office that would air mail the 250yd fence at the range and he was a scratch player too. I asked him why not turn pro he said I'm not good enough, you need to be under par all the time to be a pro.

    • @brianr6661
      @brianr6661 3 роки тому +102

      @@Pulse2AM Keep in mind that shooting under par at your average country club layout is pretty easy to do as well. You have to be able to break it at tournament conditioned courses with rough grown out and super fast greens. To hit it close on those greens you have to play short of the pin and run it over, or you have to use a contour and get the ball to run towards the hole. The rough is so thick that it's hard to reach the green from 140 yards sometimes. Even if you can manage to break par consistently at the easy country club layouts, that's still not good enough. If you could manage to shoot 65 or so pretty much every time on an easy layout then you might have a chance at improving enough to play on tour.
      I worked as an assistant professional at a course that hosted a PGA tour event. I could shoot 2 under or so at that course when conditions were normal. When we set it up for tournament conditions from the tournament tees I would struggle to even shoot in the 70's at all. We had two par 4's that played over 500 yards from the tournament tees, and the course could be stretched to over 7600 yards.

    Wow Rick! There has been a lot of improvement in the quality and the crispness of your videos. I am a regular watcher since 2016. There are sooo many videos on your channel that till now I am not sure if I watched each one. Thank You Rick for keeping me entertained for 5 years(and many more! )! Not tough when we go to the same driving range :)

    Anyone else notice that Rick's foot placement is pointing exactly where some of his not-so-flash drives were going in this video?
    But nitpicking aside, fun video to watch, love the difference of experience and how even 10 clubs between then shows how much you can get by on just raw ability to adjust to your clubs. Love it!

    I'm not a golfer Rick, but love watching your channel. What's amazing to observe in this one is how your self-talk to you is quite -ve, but to James is always +ve. We know James is so good, but I wonder if you spoke to/about your own shots as +vely as you do for James, how much better your game would be. A good idea for a video perhaps, the psychology of Golf play?

      It is probably because he has been humbled. I always say that the difference between arrogance and confidence is failure. An arrogant person is someone who has never failed before. A confident person is someone who has tasted failure but is still ok.

    What a great demonstration of how a 1in putt and 320yd drive count the same. Golf is a great game because it’s an equalizer. You can take different ways to the green, but at the end of the day, if you can putt well, you can make up for any disadvantage.
