all right guys we're playing the back nine' here at monarch boot Beach we just
played a front nine match play match you know I don't know how you do that this
is the second time in a row you birdie like the eighth hole to go anyways watch
the thing on his channel good stuff it was a great match Matt played great he
had some great up and downs it was a fun day and hopefully you guys enjoy it a
little bit of it and see who takes home that uh that golden wedge again mm-hmm
ah yeah I think we know anyways we won't talk about that we're gonna do now on
the back nine is we're gonna give you two different ways to play a hole so
coach we'll play it one way and I'll play it a total different way so it'll
show you just options about how to how to play this crazy game yeah there's
many ways to skin a cat and sometimes you can bombing off the tee or just lay
up David Toms it and try and play smart and
not you're not get yourself into too much trouble and just play stress-free
golf fantastic let's do it we have a 382 yard
par-4 pretty straight away but there's bunkers on the left and right and we're
gonna approach us two different ways so yeah
typically I would not hit a driver on this hole but for today's purposes I'm
gonna hit driver I try and leave myself right around like 120 that's a good
yardage for me so take 120 off of the 380 you're
looking at something 260 I just hit a smooth driver down the middle good shot
but he's going up the right side and you might have reached that bunker hard to
say okay so I'm going out 3-wood on this and just try to play this as a position
positioning alright Matt had a good one right down the middle
don't take your eyes off that center cut
I think your three would have went past my driver okay so when now I put it in
the middle of fair we got 132 I'm going with pitching wedge
and just I think the 3-wood for me was a the right play yeah I think so too I
think this is just generally the right yardage that you really want it's full
wedge a little bit right of the pin drawn over should be good pin high all
right hit that drive a little bit off the right side didn't hit it great but I
got 112 going in a little bit uphill wind is kind of with us so I'm gonna
play the number I'm just gonna hit a nice wedge 54 in there and probably miss
a little left of the pin geared it up there a little right and shits been just
a little short oh and it's spun down the hill but it was the right play yeah I've
been I didn't hit that 54 very well just kind of bailed out on it a bit and I was
a couple yards short so it obviously came off that false front and now I got
tough up and down I Mike didn't hit that bad of a shot in here it just hit short
and rolled down so he's got this tricky little up and down
nice clear oh he has a great shot okay so two different ways to play that hole
I think my par was a lot easier than yours for sure definitely you know did
not like missing the green with a wedge in my hand I never do I was probably a
couple yards shy of the ridge and everything kind of funnels back when
mice elevated like that so yeah Matt was the the right play 3-wood down the
middle 135 have a full bull shot yeah I took a little off 154 and I think that's
what kind of did me in yeah yeah I'd like to have a full shot especially when
you're gonna have a wedge in your hand I prefer a more shot than less yeah all
right let's move on okay the 11th hole 405 yard par-4 this time
Mike is going 3-wood and I'm gonna do the driver yeah see how it goes swish it
up see see what happens this is a little bit longer of a hole so I'll probably
have like a 8 9 7-iron going in and full full shot okay let's do it
I like the 3-wood play here actually I wouldn't mind doing that and I say it
down the right side should be perfect
my fanned it out to the right just a little bit heading towards that bunker I
think he might be in it yeah I'm in this is why I was saying that the 3-wood is
that he's the play here because that bunker is right in driver land all right
so I got 173 left the winds kind of cross it's a little bit uphill I'm gonna
go with a smooth 6-iron and try and miss right of the pin it's really good
senator green turn over a touch oh just a look yeah it bounced up there so hit
your short and bounced up got a good bounce on that that's one aren't have
about 180 but I'm gonna go I'm gonna hit a high 6-iron I can't go less than that
and got this lip right here so this is what driver would this is what you get
when he had driver and should tip at home when you got a lip that big I would
always recommend clubbing one up and leaving it maybe a little bit short of
the green but that's a pro so he knows what he's doing
he's got about three four feet in front of him that he has to get up and over
yeah he got up and over it's enough no it just came up short of the other
bunker when you're trying to hit a higher of a bunker it's easy to hit it
just behind the ball - so that's what happened oh we should call it fat but
I'm out so see if we can not save tape are all right 92 I'm going hard
60-degree wedge because a little downwind and I don't want to take
anything off of it I hit this one hard but
yeah should be good just got over the bunker he's being good play I think
somebody might have holed out here and we see two divots and we see one ball
what do you think do you make what a for
next box both gonna make good decisions but we're gonna make let's make good
different decisions today I'm playing with the voice caddie gl1 watch gives me
the whole layout the yardage you can see that as whole is from right here 469
yards you swipe it gives you the green
swipe again you just get a numeric layout of the hole so I've been testing
this watch out in terms of yardage I'd normally don't like playing with a watch
because the it's too heavy but this one's a lot lighter then let's say the
GL to that they make so the GL one GPS got the whole layout it's really been
fairly accurate I like it gives you artists to the front and the back of the
green that you could put you can just tap on the green on the watch and it
moves the flag around it gives you an adjusted yardage so it's pretty nice
check it out link in the description below for this bad boy
your little Christmas gift for the one you love okay so Mike and I are both
hitting driver on this hole it's a par-5 so maybe it'd be dumb to hit
three would but our second shop we all probably make different decisions
depends on where we work we are he'll be in the middle of fairway
that's what he does right into this time but quite good perfect down the middle
baby draw low bullet find good with that's a good good layup shot Mike
that's no surprise but I see I don't hit 3-wood unless I'm going for so I'm going
hybrid I'm only giving him a hard time if you've got the boulder wedge now
that's what he gets the golf gods punish them he pushed that to the right you've
got just over near that bunker and that's what happens when all right don't
talk trash don't talk trash kids cuz you get punished I hit it good when maybe a
fairway or two to the right will be alright though
I clipped a branch right behind them it's a little bit left of the pin should
probably be in that back bunker hey I'm still getting penalized for talking
trash not gonna happen again good golf cutler I learned quick quick
learner no talking trash bull uphill I'm just gonna hit hard 60 be kind of
aggressive with this one 85 yards up the hill I mean this has got green light
special written all over it no up here right at it looks good little
right of the hole and he plays a little draw spin so that should get get pretty
tight all right bad news is falls below the stance quite
a bit he's kind of short-sighted himself and that's what he's working with the
good news is that he's got a good lie oh I think he's gonna try and miss a little
bit long here I think that's the play anywhere on is good and just try and
salvage a par well done yeah that's an A+ that's why they call
mr. short game right there
that's a trash box boat crash that's what not to do but if you want a video
on how to hit those bunker shots I'll leave it right up here video check
it out alright guys that's uh so wraps getting dark out here at monarch Beach
great course if you're ever in the neighborhood a Newport area come check
this place out you like it yeah it's beautiful it's right on the water it's
usually always in great condition people here are the best and it's just
fun to be here yeah great spot and so that's just some holes
two different ways really approach your game you know I do recommend like always
have like different options for ways to approach certain holes we were certainly
going out of our comfort zone doing things we we wouldn't normally do but
we're trying to just make it look you know give you options so you can not
one-way look you said it's gonna cap yeah it's fun to just take different
shots at different holes and just try different things and make all fun and
just have a good time out there it doesn't always have to be a certain way
you can play it you know golf a lot of different ways yeah all right be sure to
check out golf all X is linked in the description below and that whatever
right up here whoever put it there um love guys see you next video
