- Oh wow, that's amazing.
You got your logo on it.
(golf balls tapping)
- This is a lot of stress.
This is not recreation.
- We have a very special treat today,
we have one of our friends that has an amazing golf channel
that's here.
We're gonna do a little challenge today.
I let him just ride in my Roadster.
There's something that I never knew until he came today,
you can actually fit golf clubs
inside of the Tesla Roadster, the original Tesla Roadster.
And they kinda fit perfectly.
- It's kind of like a match made in heaven,
it's almost like they thought, how big are golf clubs?
Let's build the car around that.
It's possible. - Exactly.
Erik Anders Lang, he has a YouTube channel
called Random Golf Club Films.
And he has been making golf videos on his channel
and for other people's golf channels for years and years.
But one placed that he's never been
is inside of our golf simulator.
He's been staying at our house for the last two days,
and we made it against the rules for Erik
to come inside of here until we come and we film this video.
I know you've seen a lot of fancy places,
you've been with a lot of really awesome golfers.
We're just some hackers over here.
But let's show you our golf simulator.
- Oh wow, that's amazing!
You've got your logo on it.
What's up, Lincoln?
Hole in One Dr., I love it.
Oh, this is so cool with the couch.
- [Dan] It's still coming together.
- This is what you need.
Good to see ya, man.
- The TrackMan has some really cool features.
Of course you can play St. Andrew's, the Old Course.
You can play courses in California.
There's even Wilshire Country Club.
- No way!
- On here, the full course,
which is where Erik belonged to.
Okay, so we've got somebody on the wall.
This guy up here, Tiger Woods.
- Yes.
- [Dan] You've met Tiger Woods before?
- Yes. - [Dan] More than once?
- I have, I've met him three times
and they were all really profound.
Really profound.
- [Dan] In your YouTube video, you guys joke about a watch.
- Yeah. Actually I have a question.
The Deep See is just a real normal watch, right?
Not like a limited edition to that?
- No, no.
- There was a lot of people telling me
that Tiger's watch was this limited edition, you know,
sort of secret watch that no one can actually obtain
except Tiger, made one off for him.
And I just thought, you know what?
I'm not sure that's entirely true.
I want to, there's only one place to actually find out.
So I asked him, and he said, "No, normal watch."
- [Dan] Did you believe it?
- Well, he was a little vague about it.
He did say it's the heaviest one they make,
which could mean that it was made out of platinum.
Obviously these two have cut open a Rolex before.
So it's a lot of moving parts and solid, precious metals.
He said it's the heaviest one they make.
I'm not really still clear on that.
But I do now know for certain that he sleeps
while wearing the watch, which is a topic of conversation
that some watch enthusiasts were interested to know.
- [Dan] He's played a lot of professional courses.
What's your favorite PGA course when you're not-
- Oh man.
I mean, it's tough.
I'm going to say Bethpage Black.
Host of the PGA, host of the U.S. Open.
There's a couple of reasons why it's so high for me
is public course, anyone can play it.
Preferred pricing for local residents.
I think that's really important as well.
I think a lot of courses should start adopting that.
Very long, difficult, a lot of elevation changes.
Historically relevant,
maintained to a high degree of quality.
But most important, I think, is really
that a lot of courses are very beautiful
when they're by the ocean.
Bethpage Black is in the middle of basically nowhere.
And this guy Tillinghast came over and made this course
100 ago in the middle of nowhere and made it beautiful.
I think that's sort of like making a beautiful drawing
with just a pencil, right?
It's not all these fancy tools.
I give it a lot of extra points for that.
And it's a golf course for the people.
- We played 18 holes yesterday.
It took us 12 hours.
The most unique 18 holes of golf ever.
So keep away from edge, steep cliff,
as we walk over to the edge.
- [Man] It's no joke.
- I didn't think I had a fear of heights.
- [Man] Oh, dude, it's a real thing.
- Until I got to St. George yesterday
- I don't know about life. I don't know about my career.
This changes your whole life.
A hole like this makes you question your reality as a human.
- It's really difficult, yeah.
It's like I don't know if there's holes on the PGA Tour
that are that narrow.
(upbeat music)
- It was incredibly special.
I'm gonna put a link to his video
in the description on this.
It's probably going to be a two part series,
but we had a blast.
You guys have gotta watch it.
So today we're gonna do a short game challenge
that's really fun, it's called Capture the Flag.
We're not gonna be running around
seizing other people's flags.
It's you use a wedge, and if whoever gets the closest
to the flag gets that, and you have only so many shots.
It's gonna choose at random who goes first,
but we each get three shots first.
You get as close as you can each flag.
And then it circles in and it'll be your color
if you're the closest.
Here's the order. Let's see it.
You are first, then Lincoln, I'm last. Okay.
In total you get nine golf balls to hit.
- Oh wow. That's it? - That's it.
Once you get the flag it turns that color,
and it'll show how many flags you have.
There's six total.
We might, we may be stealing flags from each other.
It's a fun competitive game once you get going.
I think you can have like six or seven people play this
at the same time.
Competition, short game, wedges and short irons.
Let's do this.
- 161, got an 8-iron.
- [Dan] Five mile per hour wind at your back.
(upbeat music)
(golf club whooshing)
- Oh, just grazing back. - Lose tempo.
(buzzer buzzes)
(golf club whooshing)
(buzzer buzzes)
(golf club whooshing)
- See it. Oh, that looks good.
- Oh, that is the distance.
Why is it getting (indistinct)?
Stay on the green.
(bell dings) Okay, there's a little hill
that helps out.
Okay, so you're 46 feet from the hole.
(upbeat music continues)
(golf club whooshing)
- [Erik] That looks good.
- [Dan] Good drop.
- [Lincoln] Wow. Stop!
(bell dings)
- You got a flag.
That's the goal here.
(golf club whooshing)
Well that was great.
- [Lincoln] Drop.
- It's a tough course.
- Yeah. - You can tell.
(bell dings) Mostly greens.
- All right, I'm going for the same flag again.
(upbeat music continues)
(golf club whooshing)
(buzzer buzzes)
- Lincoln has two. Erik has one.
And now it's my turn for my first turn.
(golf ball thudding)
- Uh oh, settle.
- Settle in the hole.
(bell dings)
- He called it.
- Five feet.
(golf club whooshing)
- Gotta go.
Gotta go.
Oh, that's ugly.
(bell dings) It's a flag, bu that's ugly.
This is stressful, this is a lot of stress.
This is not recreation.
(Dan laughing)
(golf club whooshing)
- Going for the deep one.
- Oh, that looks good.
- It's got drop.
- Come over.
- Drop.
- Oh, it's so far away.
Hey, it's a flag,
(bell dings) but I don't think
that's gonna stick around for awhile.
- They might need to call my lawyer, figure this out.
Gotta get some strategy going.
So every flag has something...
So it wants me to go there.
- So just use change target.
Take a look at it.
Look at your options, the distances.
- I know I'm at 83 yards.
83 specifically.
- [Dan] What wedge is it?
- 58 degree to parallel there.
(golf club whooshing)
- [Lincoln] Little past the rough.
That should sit, let that sit.
- [Dan] Oh, come back.
Didn't bite.
You got it.
- Does that count?
(bell dings) Oh, that is inside.
- [Dan] Inside? You got a flag.
- We're all missing greens and we're still getting flags.
- [Erik] Yeah, this is not-
- [Dan] So good.
(golf club whooshing)
(buzzer buzzes)
(golf club whooshing)
Good contact on that.
- [Man] Really good contact-
- Oh, that's so deep. Settle.
- [Erik] Oh, wow. (buzzer buzzes)
- [Dan] Carry 120.
- [Erik] That's totally not possible.
- [Dan] What club is that?
- 54 degree, 105 yards, mass.
It could be user error.
It's possible.
(upbeat music)
(golf club whooshing)
- Hole again (indistinct) (buzzer buzzes)
(golf club whooshing)
(buzzer buzzes)
(golf club whooshing)
Just like, every one of my shots...
Go right, right.
(buzzer buzzes) Wow!
- Brutal. - Wow, this is
a tough hole, I'm glad that you hit that.
- Here's the thing, here's the thing.
Life is not fair.
Lincoln should be winning this game.
I am, I've been the benefactor of luck
throughout my entire life.
And it continues on to this day.
I should not be in the league.
(upbeat music)
(golf club whooshing)
- Good. - That's got a good-
- [Erik] Shot's good.
It's going a little right though.
- Oh, and he hits the green. (bell dings)
That should be one-
(Erik clapping drowns out speaker)
- Good shot. - 35 feet, thank you.
- Two, one, two.
- Nah, it's- - Two, two, two.
- [Lincoln] We're all leading right now.
- Whoa.
(golf club whooshing)
(buzzer buzzes)
(golf club whooshing)
- [Dan] That's it.
- [Lincoln] It's really fun-
(music drowns out speaker)
Uh oh. - Wow.
- Okay, there's a flag. - Six feet!
- There's a close one.
- [Erik] Wow, all right, not gonna go for that one.
Nice. - Thanks.
- So now it's three, two, one.
(upbeat music)
(golf club whooshing)
Oh, terrible shot but might work.
- That could- - That worked great.
Stayed up there.
- Oh! - Stop, stop.
Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop.
Why are you so fast?
(bell dings) He got it!
He got it by a foot.
(all laughing)
- It is a fun back drifting though.
(upbeat music)
(golf club whooshing)
- It's there. - Uh oh.
- [Erik] Oh stop.
- Bite, bite, bite, bite. - Oh!
- Oh, this guy.
(bell dings) He's all nervous
at the beginning, and now look at him
with four flags right now.
- You got a flag on every one of your shots.
Oh no, you still have one more.
- Nine feet. - It's not about score.
Proceeds to destroy us and steal every flag (laughs).
(upbeat music)
(golf club whooshing)
- Aah. - Yeah,
especially on that hole.
(buzzer buzzes)
- I'll take an ice bath.
- Nice job. - Hey, man. Thank you.
Leader in the clubhouse.
Usually that's not a good place to be.
You just watch everyone beat you.
(golf club whooshing)
- Over? - Not like-
- [Lincoln] The shakes.
(buzzer buzzes) - Wow.
(golf club whooshing)
- Good ball. - Really nice.
- Not beating that. (bell dings)
Yikes. Nice shot, buddy. (Erik clapping)
Five feet, stick to the five feet.
You can come back.
(upbeat music)
(golf club whooshing)
- [Lincoln] Drop. Not wind.
- Looks like he got it.
- (clapping) Hole in one. - You got it close!
- Wow, wow! - Five feet twice!
- What club did you hit, 8-iron, 9-iron?
- [Lincoln] Yeah, that really shoot it. Okay.
- Two, two, two. It's up to Dan.
- If he thinks that's the best part about being last
is like look, we're all tied up.
He has got a chance to win it.
- He's got work to do.
(golf club whooshing)
- Oh, that's not a bad shot. (buzzer buzzes)
(upbeat music)
(golf club whooshing)
- Oh, he got it.
- Unless it's too much.
That was an 8-iron.
- Shouldn't be.
- He got it!
- Oh, oh. - [All] Oh!
- Oh no! - Okay.
If we- - [Erik] Final shot.
- If I don't get this, we're going to a three man playoff.
Basically, this is the playoff.
I'm going for the win.
Here we go.
This one's for you, Lincoln. - Thank you.
(upbeat music)
(golf club whooshing)
He plays it. Can it do it though?
Good line.
- It could work. It needs to sit hard.
- Oh!
Oh man. Okay.
- Oh wait, that's it, right? - That's it.
- Game over. (Erik clapping)
- What's crazy about that though...
- We've moved on to a little long drive competition.
They actually have lights and the runway.
Basically, if you've missed it too far to the left or right
then it doesn't count.
And right now, Erik's going for it.
(golf club whooshing)
Swung hard and nice.
It's going a little left.
Oh, it's a lot left.
So you can see it kind of goes out over here.
You have to keep it in bounds.
When we played yesterday, Erik hit one on this hole
as a par five, and it went so far over the fairway.
It went over the road and hit in a cul-de-sac
and bounced over the house that was in the end
of the cul-de-sac.
I drove over there and tried to find it.
It was gone. It was in their backyard.
(golf club whooshing)
(upbeat music)
- [Lincoln] 109 plus feet!
- How does that draw all the way across it?
- [Dan] 109.6. Oh, you are strong.
109.6, that's good.
- You got one in the fairway though.
- There's a lot of different like golf balls out there
and a lot of different brands.
This is not a sponsorship for one certain brand,
but I do think it's interesting
if you've ever heard of Vice golf balls,
they're the ones that you don't see in the pro shops.
You don't see them in the sporting goods stores
because they sell them online.
And for years, they did a really good job
at making commercials.
But if you watch the commercials, it's this guy
that was in all their advertisements.
And so they sold a lot of golf balls for a lot of years.
But what's cool is they did a collaboration with Erik,
and they made special Erik Anders Lang golf balls,
PRO PLUS EAL, Erik Anders Lang.
Look at the guy on the back.
Does he look familiar?
Look at that beautiful backswing right there.
- [Erik] That's New Zealand.
- [Dan] You're on like the edge of a cliff right there.
- Yeah, that was very scary.
And here it is here.
- [Dan] Wow. On the box.
Look at that coordination.
(Erik laughing) Wow.
- These sold out in a short period of time,
but we've got another dozen coming out very soon.
So let's see how this does on the sim.
(upbeat music)
(golf club whooshing)
- [Dan] Hook left.
(man laughing) That's straight.
It's straight. - 112 ball speed, wow.
- 112.5 club head speed. 300 yards.
Look at those stats. Look at that ball.
Okay, now we know that Erik can bomb the ball
112.5 miles per hour with his driver speed.
Super fun.
We filmed a crazy video yesterday.
It's going to be on Erik's channel,
you've got to go check it out.
And we are about to film a video with a magic putter.
So why don't you stand behind the ball and look at it?
It literally stays there.
Some people think that it improves your game so much
that they want it banned and illegal.
We are gonna take it apart. See what's inside of it.
And see if we can have somebody break the shaft
over their knee.
So anyway, we'll link that video right now if we have it.
If not, stay tuned in a couple days
on our What's Inside channel.
Erik, thanks for staying at our house.
That was a blast. - Thank you for having us.
I've always a very humble and gracious guests.
So I appreciate the the hospitality.
- [Dan] And the podcast was awesome.
We'll put a link to the podcast if it's here.
We talked for an hour and 20 minutes
about just stuff.
- I'm really excited about that.
That was my favorite part of the trip
is just sort of having a time to talk about everything
that fascinates me about what you guys do
and everything.
- That's it for now.
If you'd liked more golf content, let us know.
Maybe we'll do a few more golf videos.
- (clapping) More golf, more golf!
- He says more golf.
I hear the claps.
Beau's got the clap.
Hunter's like feel obligated to clap.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah. - Trying to stay
outta the shot.
