1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,760 Emergency Podcast. I just played in my first 2 00:00:02,840 --> 00:00:05,800 tournament of the year. Will I? 3 00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:10,360 I just smoothed it around for an easy 78. 4 00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:16,280 Like I'm like, I'm just really good at so here I am again. 5 00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:24,840 Here I am again. Another year of frustrating 6 00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:27,560 tournament performances. Starts off in May. 7 00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:31,240 I'm very excited about it, so I thought I'd ask you why are 8 00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:35,040 tournaments so hard? Yeah, so let's start off with 9 00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:37,320 that. So first and foremost, shot 78. 10 00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:40,360 Frustrated. How many rounds of golf have you 11 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:45,000 played this year in Minnesota? I don't see how that's relevant. 12 00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:46,800 No, it's not at all. I just. 13 00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:49,440 This is my first eighteen of the year. 14 00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:52,520 Yeah, no. So, so first time of the year, 15 00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:54,080 OK. And and how many rounds have you 16 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:56,120 played? This is my first 18. 17 00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:58,080 OK, first eighteen. OK, cool. 18 00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:01,200 Good, good, good, good, good. So generally the expectations 19 00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:03,320 are low, right? Because you haven't played, it's 20 00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:06,400 been cold, you've got 4 kids, all you've been doing is speed 21 00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:09,240 training, but you choose 78 and that's bad, correct? 22 00:01:10,960 --> 00:01:15,040 OK, no, it's not. I mean, like, it's fine, it's 23 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:18,800 it's fine, but it's just, it's like it's so different. 24 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:20,800 It's not like I feel like I haven't. 25 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:22,960 Why did I practice all winter? What was I doing? 26 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:25,040 Like what? Yeah, but, but, but, but think 27 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:26,960 of it this way. It starts off with the 28 00:01:26,960 --> 00:01:29,240 expectations, right? It starts off with the 29 00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:31,720 expectations of I should play well in a tournament. 30 00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:34,240 So point being is if you don't want to just go and play the few 31 00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:36,560 holes with your friends today, you'd have probably played 32 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:38,440 pretty decent golf because there's no stress. 33 00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:40,440 There's nothing even playing little skins game, a little 34 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:42,880 money game and say, whoa, I've got a ton of competency. 35 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:45,920 So what's really important about this is exactly that is like 36 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:51,080 when you try and compete and you're not used to competing, it 37 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:54,760 feels completely different. So part of this is, you know, 38 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:58,320 the solution to it is, you know, how do you go ahead and compete 39 00:01:58,320 --> 00:01:59,840 and not feel like you're competing? 40 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:02,840 And when you train, how do you feel like you're actually 41 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:04,720 competing? So you've got 2 elements to it. 42 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,000 One is you've been doing a ton of speed training, which is 43 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,880 awesome, but you haven't been doing a ton of yardage, gapping 44 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:13,640 of wages, playing golf, working on short game, making ten in a 45 00:02:13,640 --> 00:02:15,160 row from 4 feet. You haven't been doing a lot of 46 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:17,400 that right? Yeah, I think I've gotten out 47 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:21,200 for like I don't know, four times I've been able to go do 48 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:23,360 like the four foot circle and lag putting. 49 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:26,640 So four times is. I mean, it was good, but. 50 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:29,960 What time is good? So, so the first part is the 51 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,080 expectations are aligned with what we've been doing. 52 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:34,720 Second part is you go into a tournament, everything feels 53 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:36,600 completely different. So why is that is? 54 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:40,040 Because number one, you've gone ahead and thought like I should 55 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:43,160 shoot 72 and qualify. So the expectations go up. 56 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:45,160 Your name's going to be on a leaderboard. 57 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:47,360 So the expectations are up. You're playing with better 58 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:49,720 players. You don't get to drag another 59 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,200 ball out or drag a putt back. You've got to finish everything. 60 00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:54,120 So you're just completely out of your comfort zone. 61 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:56,760 And what people don't realize is how different that comfort zone 62 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:58,040 is. I mean, it's just tournaments 63 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:00,880 are just not most of us are not used to them and we play the 64 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:04,240 club championship once a year, have the worst round we've ever 65 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:07,520 had in history on the first day, shoot in 96 and then second day 66 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:10,800 shoot at 77 and go, oh man, I know I'm capable of this. 67 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,080 I wish I could have done it the first day, but you weren't 68 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:15,040 because you weren't in the first day, you were in the 69 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:16,440 competition. The second day you were 70 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:17,800 completely out of the competition. 71 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,320 So there's no stress. I had one of my players just 72 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:23,000 yesterday, Barry, he just texted me in the first round, shot in 73 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,920 80, didn't play good Second round went out with his buddies. 74 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:29,080 He knew every guy in the group and he just had a good time, had 75 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:32,120 fun and shot a 73. And it's like, OK, I think I'm 76 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,840 starting to get it. Like I was more comfortable that 77 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:36,960 second day. The first day I wasn't 78 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:39,080 comfortable. So it's like, how do I learn how 79 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:42,040 to get more uncomfortable in my training and my practice and 80 00:03:42,040 --> 00:03:44,280 when I get on the golf course, I'm going to say it again, how 81 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,160 do I try and get myself into a comfort zone that I don't need 82 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:49,520 to worry about things, right? I don't need to worry about 83 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:51,040 outcome. I don't need to be worried about 84 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:52,800 school. I just need to play. 85 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,840 So I don't think people realize the difference between the two 86 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,720 that they they think that they're ready to go and compete 87 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,120 in a tournament and then they're blown away when they go and 88 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:02,520 shoot 10 shots higher than normal. 89 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:05,600 It's like, no, that is the standard now we have to train 90 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,960 for that. Yeah, it's just so it's just so 91 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,920 weird though, Like I don't understand why it feels so 92 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:13,960 different. Like I, I played on Monday, I 93 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:17,320 played, went out and played nine holes with a friend and hit it 94 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:20,440 great. And then like it literally felt 95 00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:22,840 like I. A which means Jack nothing. 96 00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:26,400 I played night owls, which is I played with a friend, so I was 97 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:29,640 comfortable and I played good. Let me give you the best, the 98 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:33,160 best example that I told my players about and I've been 99 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:34,800 sharing this this year quite a lot with them. 100 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:40,160 OK, you have a wooden plank. It is 2 1/2 feet wide and it's 101 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,520 30 feet long and you walk across and go boom. 102 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:45,240 I have the skill set. I can do that. 103 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,240 And then you look at somebody else who walks across the plank 104 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,560 and goes look at that like you walked across that plank, like 105 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,960 you can do that too. I'm as good as you and it felt 106 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,360 totally comfortable. Now if I then go and put that up 107 00:04:56,360 --> 00:05:00,520 on top of a four foot table, you go, OK, I can do this. 108 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:02,520 But as you walk across it, you're a little bit more, you 109 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:05,320 know, better focus in on this a little bit more because if I do 110 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:07,800 fall, I just have to jump off and I'd be OK. 111 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:10,320 But you know, let's just make sure I'm OK. 112 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:12,840 And your buddy walks across and go, you see, I'm the same as 113 00:05:12,840 --> 00:05:14,560 him. Like, I know he's a + 3 and he 114 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,920 just won the big state amateur tournament, but I can do what he 115 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:18,160 does. Now. 116 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:22,080 You put it up at 50 feet. You put it up above your house 117 00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,240 and you start to look in that same 3 feet. 118 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,920 I mean, you're freaking out. It's the same 3 feet, though. 119 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:30,320 It's still golf. It's still a wooden board, and 120 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:33,040 you're grabbing onto it. OK, well now you put it up at 121 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:38,000 2000 feet, you put it up above a skyscraper and you are hugging 122 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:41,360 the board, vomiting, not able to move across the board. 123 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:44,480 But your buddy just says it's a 2 1/2 foot wide board. 124 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:46,680 It's 30 feet long, I'm going to walk across it. 125 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:50,360 They've learned how to do it under a situation that we 126 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:54,480 haven't trained for yet, so it isn't that scary for them. 127 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:56,840 So in your training, what you're trying to do is level up. 128 00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:01,040 So it's 15 feet above 30 feet above 60 feet above 100 feet 129 00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:02,520 above. So a point, once you have a cup 130 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:05,080 above 200 feet, well, I'm going to die from a 200 feet, I'm 131 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:08,680 going to die from a 2000 feet. You, you can shift into a 132 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:10,800 mindset of like, stick to what you know what to do. 133 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:13,560 And that's really the best analogy I can give you right now 134 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:15,320 of like, but I know it's the same thing. 135 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:18,640 It's not it's, it's a completely different thing because the, the 136 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:23,400 drop off, the fall is bigger than you want to fall, right. 137 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:25,400 And so that's really the analogy I would give. 138 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:26,680 So your thoughts and feedback on that. 139 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:27,720 That's. A great that's a really good 140 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:29,840 analogy, actually like that. That makes a lot of sense. 141 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:34,120 So how do I make the board? I feel like it's on the ground 142 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:36,720 then when it's. Exactly. 143 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:38,960 So if you've ever done this, I mean, have you ever done a rope 144 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:40,200 course? Have you ever done? 145 00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:42,840 Yeah, when I was a kid, I remember doing on. 146 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:45,320 OK, I'm going to go and show you a picture right here. 147 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:46,520 Totally random. Totally. 148 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:50,280 Here we go like this, OK? See this picture right there? 149 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,960 OK. OK, so I'm on top of a however, 150 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,440 however tall a Telegraph pole is a phone call. 151 00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,160 It is high. I mean, it's, I don't know, 50 152 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:02,440 feet. Maybe it's, it's high and you've 153 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,600 got to climb up the side of it and then you've got to stand on 154 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,320 the top of it and then you've got to jump off it and grab a 155 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:10,720 rope that goes across. All I remember is as I went up, 156 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:14,200 my body was shaking, violently shaking. 157 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:18,280 And all I looked at was this one piece above it and there was a, 158 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:20,800 there was a I could see something right in front of me. 159 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:24,000 So I was climbing up the pole here and I could look up and I 160 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:27,040 just stared intently. And I just told myself, just put 161 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:28,200 your left foot up, put your river. 162 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,640 My hands are shaking. My no, I was tied to a rope. 163 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,400 So if I fell, nothing was going to happen. 164 00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:35,960 I was just going to bounce. You know, I was just going to 165 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:37,760 drop 15 feet and I was 60 feet up. 166 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:40,760 I was going to be totally fine. So if you make a triple and you 167 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:42,720 miss the cut, nothing's going to happen. 168 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:45,600 Your wife, she'll probably let you back in the house. 169 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,280 Your kids, I mean, they'll look at you a little bit differently, 170 00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:50,920 but it's never going to it's, you're not going to completely 171 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:54,680 scratch and die. But I was violently shaking in 172 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:56,840 my legs. And I, I mean, I was telling 173 00:07:56,840 --> 00:08:01,600 myself, lift your right leg up and it was like, no, I'm not 174 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:03,840 going to do anything. And so the point being is you 175 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:08,320 start to lift, lift it up and you have to act under your body 176 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:10,240 is not doing what you want it to do. 177 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:13,080 So I would challenge you, if you're afraid of heights, go and 178 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,520 do a rope course and, and focus on what you do. 179 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:18,440 You don't look down. What, what, what, what happens. 180 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:22,000 You focus in front of you, you makes you, you focus on your 181 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:23,880 breathing. So my point is like, the more 182 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,680 you can do to get completely uncomfortable and see what your 183 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:30,680 body does, you then start to realize like this is a normal 184 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:34,280 human reaction because we're trying to avoid pain, right? 185 00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:37,200 You know, like we're trying to avoid being killed or dying. 186 00:08:37,799 --> 00:08:40,799 Now go ahead and grab a Golf Club and see what you can do 187 00:08:40,799 --> 00:08:42,760 with a Golf Club when this is happening. 188 00:08:43,159 --> 00:08:46,320 The point being is, is that yes, you have to start to understand 189 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:49,840 that that happens and then learn how do I go ahead and focus on 190 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,320 what I want? How do I get my bereavement in a 191 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,400 lot in alignment so my body can actually work the right way? 192 00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:59,200 And then how do I go ahead and start to look at my expectations 193 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:02,480 or what I would say is my belief system and say this is just 194 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:06,040 another golf shot and having to really, truly believe that. 195 00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:08,240 Because in the big scheme of things for Aaron Rye last 196 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:09,880 weekend, it was just another golf shot. 197 00:09:10,680 --> 00:09:13,120 It was just another. It was another driver off the T 198 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:14,480 box. It was another iron into the 199 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:16,600 green. It was another 768 foot putt. 200 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:20,840 Like it wasn't when you truly look at it wasn't anything apart 201 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:22,520 from that. But then we had a championship 202 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:26,000 and a trophy and $15 million in FedEx Cup points and all this 203 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:29,440 and it becomes difficult. And so I mean, that is the R and 204 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:31,720 we continue to fail at it over and over again. 205 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:34,920 But each time we fail, the ladder goes up a little higher 206 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:36,960 and we get more and more comfortable to the point where, 207 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:39,920 you know, the, the guy that works at that park runs up the 208 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:41,520 pole and goes look, oh, you look, who is this? 209 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:43,400 Because he's done it 10,000 times. 210 00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:45,320 We do. I bet you if I put him on a 700 211 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:49,800 foot pole or 80 foot pole or 250 football, he'd be freaking out, 212 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:51,520 right? And so I always look at Alex 213 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:54,440 Tunnel, you know, when that when he climbed El Capitan with no 214 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:59,320 rope, to him it was just another grab this, grab this, do this. 215 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:03,520 It wasn't, oh, you're now 2040 feet and you're now 2050 feet. 216 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:06,160 You're not, you know, so that's really The thing is that like 217 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:09,200 these are human reactions that are going to happen in whatever 218 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:10,920 sport when we get out of our comfort zone. 219 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:12,840 But that's where we grow. We grow when we're outside of 220 00:10:12,840 --> 00:10:16,280 our comfort zone. OK, so that's why I, I didn't 221 00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:19,040 like this is a qualifier that I just kind of threw on because I 222 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:22,960 wanted a early season Rep because I, I know from my past 223 00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:28,240 experiences that like for me, like I got to get reps in under 224 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:32,080 this just because like it just you get going like this couldn't 225 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:33,600 have been a less stressful event. 226 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:36,160 Let's be very clear, right? There is no one around. 227 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:39,920 It was not a big deal. It was like a qualifier for 228 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:44,600 something and, and but like still like things go so fast. 229 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,640 Like I made a double on the 1st hole because I3 putted from 4 230 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:53,960 1/2 feet, which was sick. And it, it was just like, but 231 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:57,080 that little like those reps and things are going fast and I'm 232 00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:59,800 trying to do 334. I'm trying to trying to 233 00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:03,200 visualize, trying to rehearse, trying to let go. 234 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,400 But if things just start going right and they're just moving 235 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:09,760 and it took me like 5 holes to kind of like chill out. 236 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:13,640 And then I was like fine air after that. 237 00:11:13,680 --> 00:11:15,960 You know, for you, they speed up. 238 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:19,160 And this is the big part about journaling afterwards because 239 00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:22,800 lots of people will slow down so much and they're like, oh, I'm 240 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:24,480 going to back off the shot. I'm going to slow down. 241 00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:26,760 I'm going to do it all right. That they're so overwhelmed that 242 00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:29,440 they play terribly and other people ramp up and go too quick. 243 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:32,800 Other people's mind drops away and they don't think at all. 244 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:35,720 And they just randomly hit shots and go, oops, what did I do 245 00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:39,160 versus I was overthinking. So what I would want you to do 246 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:41,800 is journal like crazy. But OK, so here's what happened. 247 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:44,440 Things started to go quickly for me. 248 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:46,600 OK, so in the future. Oh, look at that. 249 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:47,640 Thumbs up. Thumbs up. 250 00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:50,200 Yeah. We've got to work on slowing 251 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:52,400 everything down. So let me ask you this. 252 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:55,160 How quickly were you in a rush to get to the golf course on the 253 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,600 way over there? No, I planned. 254 00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:01,240 I was good on time. Good in your warm up, take me 255 00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:03,280 through your warm up. Once your body was warmed up, 256 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:06,680 did you start to pick specific shots and targets and start to 257 00:12:06,680 --> 00:12:09,400 get orientated on the target or were you still thinking swing? 258 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:15,760 I did, I I did the last part. I did go into shot like shot and 259 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:19,200 work on routine. Did you hit two drivers or two 260 00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,680 irons or the two of the same clubs in a row in your last 20 261 00:12:21,680 --> 00:12:24,880 balls? Probably in the last I didn't 262 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:27,160 hit that many balls, so I'm sure I did. 263 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:29,800 But I probably played. I probably tried to play like, I 264 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,280 don't know, four holes. Before did you get a driver that 265 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:35,080 even like and dragged up another driver or did you you 266 00:12:35,080 --> 00:12:37,480 disciplined and then you hit a 7 iron or wedged out? 267 00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:40,680 OK did you do any up and downs before you teed off around the 268 00:12:40,680 --> 00:12:42,160 green? Did you make 3 or 4 up and 269 00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:43,560 downs? No, OK. 270 00:12:43,560 --> 00:12:46,480 Did you put out, you know, a 30 footer and put it all the way 271 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:47,280 out? No. 272 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:51,360 So look at this is like, so the body was warmed up, the emotions 273 00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:54,960 once, right, So you didn't ship onto the green, read the lie, 274 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:58,280 slow everything down, walk out, pace out the rule of 12, 275 00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:01,640 whatever you want to use at aim point, you know, go through it, 276 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:06,800 line it up, make the it's now slowing everything down into how 277 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:08,800 you would play tournament golf, right. 278 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:12,240 So as you head to the first tee, it's like, all right, OK, I've 279 00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:14,840 just focused in on this. I just played the first three 280 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:16,560 holes. I did 2 up and downs. 281 00:13:16,560 --> 00:13:19,240 I made an 8 footer. I hit a lag put to a foot from 282 00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:21,880 60 feet. I'm heading to the tee box and 283 00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:24,560 my breathing is in a good place. So do you see like there's a 284 00:13:24,560 --> 00:13:28,320 lesson to you is you're going to learn a lot more from failure 285 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,320 than actual success because in success is like always what he 286 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:32,840 did right? And failure, you start to idea 287 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,160 what you did wrong and how you fix it. 288 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:38,040 And sometimes it's hard to repeat success because you have 289 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:40,280 luck, right? You're not meant to make a 68 290 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:42,880 foot part on the 17th hole of the PGA Championship that has 291 00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:45,320 like 6 feet of break in or 8 feet of break in it. 292 00:13:45,560 --> 00:13:48,360 If you only have a two shot lead going into the last, you've only 293 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:51,240 got to hit one into that right bunker and then hit the tree and 294 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:54,000 drop down and vomit all over yourself and you lose, right. 295 00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:57,160 So point being is, is that when you have those breakdowns, 296 00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:58,000 that's when you're going to learn. 297 00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:01,040 So for me to be journaling and starting to realize like, hey, I 298 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:04,600 didn't fully commit to the to the shot that, you know, sorry 299 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:08,000 to the to the process right before I teed off, I then teed 300 00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,320 off right? And then as you said, you got 301 00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:13,560 super quick over 4 1/2 a putt. Well, Ernie missed 5 putts 302 00:14:13,560 --> 00:14:15,560 within 4 feet of the Masters. Remember that. 303 00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:19,280 Right. So then it would be like you 304 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:21,840 said, Oh, and then I really, I was trying to commit. 305 00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:23,960 Oh no, there's either I try, I did or I didn't. 306 00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:25,960 Like, why are you committing to the golf shot? 307 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:29,480 And if not, why not? Like what was was visualization 308 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:32,240 that you struggled with commitment or letting go, which 309 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:33,760 was the one that you found the hardest to do? 310 00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:35,480 God, I love a good thumbs up from you. 311 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,640 It's still like man, that's awesome. 312 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:41,880 It's just like the word that I always use is shallow and I use 313 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:45,880 it when we did there our video on three 3/4 of just like the 314 00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:48,960 the difference between like a really shallow visualization and 315 00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:53,400 like feeling it of like, OK, I'm going to hit a good shot, like 316 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:56,040 really deep and you know, it versus like it's just kind of 317 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:58,920 like surface level. And like I find it really hard 318 00:14:58,920 --> 00:15:02,680 to get beyond the surface level of just like, OK, I kind of see 319 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:06,760 it and back in my old routine of just like, oh, like I'm just 320 00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:09,320 waving the club around, taking all these practice swings all of 321 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:11,360 a sudden and then I'm hitting the shot and I was like, whoa, 322 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:12,480 that's not what I'm trying to do. 323 00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:14,600 Like that was not what it that was not my goal. 324 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:17,720 And so when you've got deep into the shots, when we've worked 325 00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:20,160 together, you've hit great shots, pulled off shots, and you 326 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:22,160 realize that's where you want to get to correct. 327 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:24,600 Yes. So think about it, it's not a 328 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:25,960 mental game, it's an emotional game. 329 00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:27,440 We've got to change our Physiology. 330 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:31,200 So you see Bryson do this before he hits the shot at Bay Hill. 331 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:34,640 You see Rory bushing, you know, you know, you've got to get your 332 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:36,440 body into it. So I would challenge you to 333 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:38,720 start to use more Physiology when you get out, like come on, 334 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:40,400 see the shot. And then that's why I'll tell a 335 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:41,880 lot. Or talk yourself through it. 336 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:44,600 You have to say it out loud to other people, like a nice high 337 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,360 draw for that right tree, high draw off the right tree, boom 338 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:48,880 right there. So then you can't be like, well, 339 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:51,040 maybe I'll fade it. It's like, no, it's a right 340 00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:53,040 drawer. Look at shot tracer. 341 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:55,280 See if you can visualize shot tracer going out there. 342 00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:56,960 Some people can be really good general. 343 00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:59,480 They actually get worse when they get too specific because 344 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:01,320 they're like, I panic, what if I don't hit the shot? 345 00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:03,960 So I would work the visualization, but then on the 346 00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:06,320 emotion, how good would it feel? Come on, how good would it? 347 00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:08,840 And like ramp the body up like really? 348 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:11,040 Because I'd see you and this is what we did the other week when 349 00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:12,360 we did the speed training at the show. 350 00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:15,960 And I'm like, come on, hit it like you're pumping yourself up 351 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:18,200 like that all winter long. And then you get on a golf 352 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:21,840 course and say, OK, be calm. And now see the shot that's not 353 00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:23,560 calling. Like Cody's like I'm going to 354 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:25,640 pound the life out of this thing and a rivet. 355 00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:29,440 I'd like to see that and then get over it because I've never 356 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:31,760 seen you guide it when you've been doing speed train. 357 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:35,320 You're just letting it go. I would prefer you to play with 358 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,760 reckless abandoned and be like, I'm just going to RIP. 359 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:39,320 I'm going to make some double S. I'm going to. 360 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:41,400 But I could make 7 burdens, right? 361 00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:43,760 I might like 7 birdies and two double s and shoot 69. 362 00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:46,840 So I would be saying that. And then obviously the last part 363 00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:48,240 is the commitment. And once you're fully 364 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:49,360 visualizing the shot, you feel good. 365 00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:52,960 It's easy to commit. So that's again, the journaling 366 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:55,840 I would say is like, I've got to get more into my, who I am as a 367 00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:58,920 player, more commitment. I, I'm guaranteed to make 2 368 00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:01,200 double s in a round, but I think I can make 7 birdies. 369 00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:03,400 And then at least you're accepting that and you're going 370 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:06,040 after it rather than trying to be calm, quiet, slow. 371 00:17:06,319 --> 00:17:08,760 You know, I'm not saying slow process, but it's like, you 372 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:10,920 know, like guiding versus fully committed. 373 00:17:11,079 --> 00:17:12,720 I what? I like the word that I'm going 374 00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:16,480 to remember is like intensity is bringing maybe intensity to the 375 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:19,720 the pre shot routine. Yeah, maybe I bring too much of 376 00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:21,960 like all right, I'm just I'm chilled out. 377 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:24,240 I'm getting you know, I'm just going to be in my head and like 378 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:27,319 Zen, Maybe it's like I like that maybe a bit more intensity 379 00:17:27,319 --> 00:17:30,080 because like, yeah, I I need to like it's let's talk about the 380 00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:32,840 body a little bit too, right, Like my golf ball was for the 381 00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:35,120 first six holes was just going like right. 382 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:38,480 It's like I couldn't turn through the ball, so there's no 383 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:41,400 option, but that thing just shot to the right and it. 384 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:43,600 Was like technique. What's that? 385 00:17:44,120 --> 00:17:45,520 Everyone's going to screen technique. 386 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:48,160 Oh, my technique was off. I'm like, no. 387 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:51,960 So let me ask you this down in the hitting zone, did you did 388 00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:53,560 you see as that? Was there a cut? 389 00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:55,760 Like if I was to give you a color of what it looked like, 390 00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:59,120 felt like sounded like what, what would you say down there? 391 00:17:59,120 --> 00:18:01,400 Was it grayed out? Was it black? 392 00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:03,400 Was it, was it was there a color to it? 393 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:05,360 Was there a feeling to the bottom of the Gulf? 394 00:18:05,360 --> 00:18:07,920 Swing through to through to the turn as you exit. 395 00:18:08,680 --> 00:18:14,520 Was it just felt like, yeah, it was, it was just like a Gray 396 00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:18,200 swing because it was I, I couldn't get, I couldn't turn 397 00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:20,080 through. Like I just couldn't rotate 398 00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:21,680 through. I just stuck and it was going 399 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:23,440 and it was like we're holding on. 400 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:27,040 Yeah, so it's just like Gray at the bottom, like almost like I 401 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:30,400 don't even like unawareness. There was no it was just like, 402 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:34,520 you know my thing to you would be like, I know that tends to 403 00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:36,880 happen to me. So I will get up over shots. 404 00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:40,480 I'll tear it down low and I'll be like, I'm going to RIP a 75 405 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:43,920 yard power slice down this fairway, pull slice and I'll sit 406 00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:46,080 up there and I'm like, as long as I'm fully committed at the 407 00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:48,840 end of it, I feel like I've done my job and I'll sit there and 408 00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:51,040 what about this? And I'll be hitting a power 409 00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:53,720 slice, I'll tow it and hit a 5 yard draw. 410 00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:56,560 And I'm like, do you imagine if I was trying to get it straight 411 00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:58,680 right now? Because I hope that one all the 412 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:02,520 way to another country. So the idea here is, is like, 413 00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:04,240 you've got to start to be like, you're right. 414 00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:07,600 Next time I play, I'm getting up on that first tee and I'm going 415 00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:11,600 for 190 ball speed because it would be better to get 190 ball 416 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:14,080 speed and pump it out of bounds and be like, yeah, but I fully 417 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:17,440 committed to that. Then guide it into the junk. 418 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:20,520 And we still made a double. And you, you breakthrough that 419 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:23,400 initial power like fear because I'm sure towards the back nine 420 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:24,520 you started to free up a bit, right? 421 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:26,360 And the driver started to work OK. 422 00:19:26,360 --> 00:19:28,400 And if it was technique, you couldn't do it on the back 9 if 423 00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:31,120 you if you didn't have it on the back 9, if you had all the back 424 00:19:31,120 --> 00:19:33,400 nine, we could have been on the front 9 if you'd never had the 425 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:35,280 technique. So the tension was higher, the 426 00:19:35,280 --> 00:19:37,880 shoulders were tighter, the body didn't turn through. 427 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:40,120 So it's like now you're really learning golf. 428 00:19:40,120 --> 00:19:42,120 You're learning like, OK, I, I got to get into another 429 00:19:42,120 --> 00:19:43,680 competition. Like your goal is getting a 430 00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:46,160 competition in the next week. As soon as you put, even if it 431 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:49,720 was a a money game against three good players at your club and 432 00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:51,600 you said, listen, guys, I want to throw in 200 bucks. 433 00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:53,280 So it was like, this is uncomfortable. 434 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:55,640 I don't lose this, but you need to get back into the heat of 435 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:57,640 battle because the minute you get back into your right, I'm 436 00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:00,280 going to go and do this today and boom, what's the next 437 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:01,840 lesson? Boom, what's the next lesson? 438 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:03,920 And what you're really trying to do is realize the 1st 10 439 00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:07,680 tournaments you play error, mistake, error, mistake. 440 00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:11,080 Oh, it's four under for one nine and then seven over on the back 441 00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:13,760 right was a had a stretch of 500 or 200 or whatever. 442 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:16,600 And you're going to start to figure, OK, and you're going to 443 00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:19,480 piece it together and all these pieces, but it just you can't do 444 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:22,080 it once and think, oh, I'll probably do another torment in 445 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:23,920 six weeks from now. And now, because you'll be back 446 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:27,720 to fresh your even if you journal this stuff, it won't be 447 00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:29,880 in you, you know, I'm saying. So you've got to get back the 448 00:20:29,880 --> 00:20:33,160 fire and get after that. This I'm such a big proponent of 449 00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:35,360 people go sign up for something to put something on the 450 00:20:35,360 --> 00:20:38,040 calendar, like get something on the calendar so you can go like 451 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:40,120 you have a reason to practice, you have a reason to train. 452 00:20:40,120 --> 00:20:43,120 And then you like go experience all this stuff, this different 453 00:20:43,120 --> 00:20:46,440 sport of golf that you you haven't experienced. 454 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:47,480 It's different. It's like it. 455 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:50,400 It's so different. Well, I, I tell my players so 456 00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:51,880 like we'll have been priced and I didn't play good. 457 00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:55,000 I'm like, OK, so for a year and a half you've been going to the 458 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:57,560 track and you've been running and you've been doing 110 meter 459 00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:00,600 hurdles and that is running. And then you showed up to the 460 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:04,040 Boston Marathon. So it's still running it. 461 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:06,240 You just are not prepared for what's about to happen. 462 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:09,160 Like you're going to Sprint the 1st 100 meters and 800 meters. 463 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:10,920 You're like, why am I feeling like I'm going to die? 464 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:13,840 It's like it looks the same but it isn't the same. 465 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:16,280 And this is where again, the more I think the better the 466 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:20,360 golfer. 1G ball consequences on every shot. 467 00:21:20,360 --> 00:21:23,280 Do nine holes up and down. Go and play worst ball golf. 468 00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:25,200 Go and have to make 10A row from 4 feet. 469 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:28,240 Don't have block practice. I tell people it's like doing 470 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:30,760 scales. If you are a world class 471 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:33,080 musician, you don't just sit there and do scales all day. 472 00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:35,680 You got to get out on stage. But what we do is we do scales 473 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:37,080 all day and go, I'm not ready to go on stage. 474 00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:38,720 I'm not ready. What a certain point You just 475 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:41,600 got to get on stage in front of three people and mess it up, but 476 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:43,800 then free it up and then you got in front of 30 people. 477 00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:46,440 You don't just go from scales to being world class. 478 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:49,360 And so to me, it is like getting off of the scales, getting off 479 00:21:49,360 --> 00:21:51,920 doing the right thing and go and make some mistakes, you know, 480 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:55,560 and get out there, but journal like crazy and get honest with 481 00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:58,600 yourself because this whole, well, I didn't feel, you know, I 482 00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:01,080 was sharing with you, Cody, you have one of my students. 483 00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:02,840 Well, I, I, you know, I didn't feel any nerves. 484 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:05,680 I didn't feel any pressure. But you couldn't feel the weight 485 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:08,240 of the club head and had no idea where the ball was going. 486 00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:09,920 No, that is called nerves, right. 487 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:14,160 So at the top of that pole when my body was shaking like crazy, 488 00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:17,640 that's just called nerves, anxiety, worry, tension. 489 00:22:18,360 --> 00:22:21,000 I don't care what you call it, it's my body wasn't doing what 490 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:23,960 it normally does. You're going to say, OK, it was 491 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:26,240 different. So what is that difference? 492 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:30,200 And then you have to start to get honest on like, I've got to 493 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,400 train to a point where I want that gut feeling. 494 00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:34,280 I want my stomach to be tight when I train. 495 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:37,720 Because if not, you're going to the gym and you're doing your 496 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,800 curls with 5 LB weights, you're not tearing any muscle. 497 00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:42,320 You're not going to get stronger. 498 00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:45,640 You got to go and lift your Max and the next day you're sore and 499 00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:48,440 hurting. But now instead of 35 lbs, you 500 00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:50,760 get a 40 lbs or whatever that number might be for you. 501 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:53,560 And most of us aren't allowing that muscle to happen. 502 00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:56,360 But twice a year, play a tournament, go I suck. 503 00:22:56,360 --> 00:22:59,480 And then I'll go back to giving myself 4 footers. 504 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:02,000 I'll go back to not having the proper penalty strokes. 505 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:03,880 I'll bump my lies. I'm not putting it down. 506 00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:05,160 You're just having fun playing golf. 507 00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:08,120 But that's not tournament golf. That is just fun golf. 508 00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:10,360 And that is not the same. It's completely different. 509 00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:13,120 Tournament golf is great and it's terrible. 510 00:23:13,120 --> 00:23:15,520 Why do we do it? OK, So what were you saying? 511 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:17,520 You're saying the journaling thing like is the idea like 512 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:19,880 journal some of these things that worked and didn't work and 513 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:22,240 then so next time remember like hey, on the the first three 514 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:24,160 holes and things like start going fast. 515 00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:26,400 Like this is the thing to remember was like that, that the 516 00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:27,800 idea. Like if you think about this 517 00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:29,920 Cordy's playbook and this would be an awesome thing I think you 518 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:33,320 for you to do with golf. Well would be Cordy's playbook 519 00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:36,040 and for everybody. It's like my playbook is before 520 00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:38,120 tournaments. I will always start to think 521 00:23:38,120 --> 00:23:41,120 technique and put myself on video and I'm screwed if I do it 522 00:23:41,120 --> 00:23:43,640 because I go oh right, I'm dipping underneath it again. 523 00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:45,200 I have. Do you want to see you want to 524 00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:47,120 see a video of me during the warm up, of how my swing is 525 00:23:47,120 --> 00:23:51,240 looking then during the warm up? So I have to go to, hey, I've 526 00:23:51,240 --> 00:23:53,320 got to play power cuts. I've got to tear it down low. 527 00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:55,040 I've got to play worst ball golf a lot. 528 00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:57,560 I've got to go ahead and focus on 334. 529 00:23:57,720 --> 00:23:59,240 I have to talk my way into the shots. 530 00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:02,280 Like I want you to literally have a playbook that you read 531 00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:05,160 the week before this. Hey, do you remember that movie 532 00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:08,240 51st Dates with Adam Sandler? Vaguely. 533 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:12,640 The the the girl has a crash, has a car crash as a kid and she 534 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:13,840 forgets everything every morning. 535 00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:16,520 Yeah, yeah, yeah. He dates her and every morning 536 00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:18,840 she has to watch a video. By the way, we're married and we 537 00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:22,200 have kids and we live on a boat now and like literally have to 538 00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:24,040 plug in and go, hey, Will, you're a golfer. 539 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:25,320 And guess what? When you're playing tournaments, 540 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,400 you suck because you know what you do? 541 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:29,240 You worry about school. You worry about what people are 542 00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:31,320 going to think about you. You try to hit a draw. 543 00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:32,520 You try and affect your golf swing. 544 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:36,560 By the way, this doesn't work. But we do have a formula over 545 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:38,720 here. And what this formula is is warm 546 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:42,040 come up this way the first three holes, focus on this did it did 547 00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:45,200 that when you get under par and you're not feeling it, back off 548 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:48,760 of shots, pick easier shots, take extra club like and you 549 00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:52,080 basically only figure it out by messing it up right. 550 00:24:52,120 --> 00:24:53,480 And then you go up. Don't do that again. 551 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:55,280 Don't do that again. And this is the difference 552 00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:57,640 between when you hit a conversations after the round, 553 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:01,040 you hear Shane Lowry after he finished double bogey bogey and 554 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:03,840 lost the tournament. And I, you know, I wanted my 555 00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:05,880 daughters see me and I didn't happen. 556 00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:09,560 And and he was just heartbroken because he had put it on that 557 00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:13,200 rather the process of Matt Fitzpatrick or Tommy Fleetwood. 558 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:14,560 Oh, I'm just getting close every week. 559 00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:15,680 I know I'm trending in the right way. 560 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:18,280 I'm feeling good about it. This isn't positive self talk 561 00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:20,960 because it's just logic is like everything's trending in a good 562 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:22,680 direction. Like I feel it's coming 563 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:24,240 together. I know I didn't get it today, 564 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:25,720 but my goodness, it's getting close. 565 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:28,640 And I think that the breakout player, I think for the next 18 566 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:32,280 months is going to be Goberg because he just keeps on getting 567 00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:34,400 in a position to win and doesn't right? 568 00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:36,440 But he keeps he's right around it. 569 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:39,480 What every time you do that, you get more and more comfortable 570 00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:41,880 and go yet don't rush that shot. Don't do that. 571 00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:43,680 Don't do this. Well, then you have all that 572 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:45,040 information. Then you start winning like 573 00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:47,240 crazy. And so like that to me is like, 574 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:50,400 we have to have a playbook. So I'd love you to work on your 575 00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:52,680 playbook, share it with everyone to golf well and be like, look 576 00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:57,160 like, here's what I'm learning about me and I've got to apply 577 00:25:57,200 --> 00:26:00,040 that when I go and play, go and play that when I go and train. 578 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:06,120 How like the one thing I do know is like, boy, I hit some skanky 579 00:26:06,120 --> 00:26:10,360 iron shots like in tournament golf, but they work out because 580 00:26:10,360 --> 00:26:12,920 I like I don't hit him pure and flush them, but they go pretty 581 00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:16,440 straight and like decent. And I know it's just because 582 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:20,840 like, well, I, it goes back to technique of like I can feel my 583 00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:25,240 body like handle going up, handle going up and like I'm 584 00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:28,280 just not rotating early, extending and doing this. 585 00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:31,040 Like I feel it happened and like, oh God, that was rough. 586 00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:35,360 But I'll get away with it. And like I just, I, there are a 587 00:26:35,360 --> 00:26:37,760 few swings around where I'll like, OK, I actually rotated 588 00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:39,920 through that one and like made it through. 589 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:44,000 And man, I just would love to freaking be able to commit 590 00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:46,280 enough to rotate through every time. 591 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:48,120 And. That's what exaggerate. 592 00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:49,720 That's what you have to exaggerate, right? 593 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:54,040 So if you know my tendency, right, is up and under the ball. 594 00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:57,520 So I have to feel. Like this when? 595 00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:00,040 I worked on video and it looks like this. 596 00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:02,880 You've got to massively exaggerate. 597 00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:07,200 So if your tendency is not to rotate, you know, you see guys 598 00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:10,400 swinging Graham McDowell across the ball, you see all these 599 00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:13,280 crazy swing positions and they're just calibrating what 600 00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:15,760 feel is versus what real is, right? 601 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:19,960 So I would be you is massively exaggerate it until my ball 602 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:23,280 starts power fading. Then I can be like, oh, I could 603 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:25,840 tee it up a little bit higher and I can start to let it go a 604 00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:28,200 little bit. But if I do that a couple holes 605 00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:30,520 in a row now I've also got to be worried if there's trouble on 606 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:33,840 the left in a bit, I might slow the hips down, stall the 607 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:37,880 shoulders and snap a thing into the water or pull it even. 608 00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:39,920 I have both shots. So I would just be saying to 609 00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:42,800 you, you've got to massively exaggerate that in training and 610 00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:44,440 way overdo it when you're playing. 611 00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:49,480 It's just it, it's so impressive to to watch pros play and, and 612 00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:52,480 how they maintain their golf swings in the highest amount of 613 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:55,280 pressure and don't just revert back to, you know. 614 00:27:56,160 --> 00:27:59,720 But think about it realistically, OK, listening. 615 00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:03,760 Everybody has put 10,000 hours into something, right? 616 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:05,360 And they're an expert at something. 617 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:09,480 And so you might be sitting at a card table playing with a 618 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:13,840 $15,000 hand, or you might have a stock trade that's a 50,000 or 619 00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:18,920 $5,000,000 trade, or you might be driving a $600,000 car. 620 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:23,600 But you're like, it isn't for them the same as what it is in 621 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:26,360 terms of like their ladder is so high up, their, their piece of 622 00:28:26,360 --> 00:28:28,680 their plank is so high up. They're so used to it. 623 00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:31,360 It's only when they get outside of that. 624 00:28:31,360 --> 00:28:33,840 So when you're hitting 500 balls a day, seven days a week with a 625 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:36,360 pro watching you, you have a personal trainer and you've been 626 00:28:36,360 --> 00:28:38,720 doing this for 2020 years for most of them. 627 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:43,160 Like you don't understand like then very rarely feeling that 628 00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:46,000 it's only when it comes down to the stretch a couple times a 629 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:48,400 year we're in the very final because they're so good. 630 00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:50,680 They're just a couple putts here and there doesn't get them into 631 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:55,160 the final group and but they still make 275,000 or 700,000. 632 00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:58,480 So I would just be challenged just to realize like each and 633 00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:01,320 every one of this listening here can do stuff, even if it's 634 00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:04,880 playing video games where you're on level 27 and you it's just, 635 00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:07,040 how are you doing that? Well, I'm just not thinking like 636 00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:10,720 I'm just, I'm just doing it instinctively because I've 637 00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:12,760 trained it. But then we play golf once a 638 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:15,480 week, hit balls once a month, get a lesson once a year. 639 00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:17,200 And we think we should be instinctive. 640 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:22,280 It's like we all drive a car texting to listen to music, one 641 00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:26,200 handed knee on the wheel driving when you first learn how to 642 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:28,600 drive your freaking out, making sure it's like because it's 643 00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:31,440 begin to have instinctive. So understand like it's we 644 00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:34,560 cannot look at those players and think we're anywhere even close 645 00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:39,520 to that because for them, they literally hit 500 balls a day on 646 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:43,800 track, man on quad with their pro standing behind them and 647 00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:47,200 they're getting the refinements of a of a Formula One car or a 648 00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:48,960 fighter jet. You know, I mean, and we are, 649 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:53,600 we're a crappy blue Chevy Nova 1987 with a bus transmission and 650 00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:57,480 an old exhaust, so. I'm just so tired of shooting 651 00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:02,520 between, I don't know, 75 and 82 in tournaments for Frick's sake. 652 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:04,720 Yeah, but you're getting close.
