Hello, everyone. My name is Alex Riggs.
And I'm Ryan O'Toole. And today we're going to be playing one-hole, one-club
challenge on the 15th here at the Mineshaft golf course. So, Ryan,
I'm going to pick your club, you get to pick mine, and I am going to give you
your lob wedge. Oh, fair enough. Okay, I was going to go lob
wedge but I'll make it interesting and I'm going to give you ... do you have a
three iron? I have a four. Okay, I'll give you the four.
Okay, so Ryan's gonna have her lob wedge. I'm gonna have my four iron. We've got
one golf hole with one golf club. Let's see how it works. Game on!
If you like, I'm gonna go first. Please. All right, let's see how well I can blade a
60 here. [Music]
Maybe if I tee it a little lower, I think that might be the answer here. I think
it's somewhere. I gotta hit that middle.
[Music] Oh, a groove lower. A groove lower. Fly! Fly!
I'm still in the desert. Okay. Okay, we're playing that one.
This dang lob wedge; who gave this to me?
Okay, four iron needs to find
some grass.
Oh, he went with a smooth swing. I like that one.
Oh, maybe a little bit too much. Okay. Okay.
So, what's the over under? You think you're in a cactus? I'm pretty
sure I'm in a cactus. I know I'm in a cactus. [laughter]
All right, no bush. Let's see. That lie is not too bad. No, I think I can get
something to work here. Can I borrow your four iron? Yeah, no kidding.
I might need your wedge later. Yes.
[Music] All right.
Well, that was hit well. I like that low flight. Hey, fairway! Okay, couple more of
those and you're there. Yes. Okay, I think we found it.
Let's see what kind of shot you have here.
Well, I'm not in the cactus. You know I was doing all the work so far.
I get to now see what you get. Oh my,
Is this your ball? Yes, this is it. This is it and we got a
sprinkler. Yeah, we'll take a little drop from that.
But I'm just trying to scope out a line. Here, you want my 60? I'd love your 60.
Okay, I think I might try and get a little bit creative with this one.
We'll take a ... we'll take a drop. I've got two options – I have to ... have to
lob a four iron over this rock or I can try to hit a hook so I'm gonna go with a hook.
I'm excited to see this. Yeah. Would your caddy let you hit this shot?
If I said I wanted to, yeah. All right.
[Music]
Did it hook? It did.
It should be up there in a decent spot, I hope.
Looks like you made it work. All right, let's go to my short knocker.
Okay. So, you're gonna try to get it up the
right side? Just avoiding ... I mean, the bunker's not
bad with the 60 but you still have 137 yards uphill.
Yeah, that's a long ways. Yeah, looks like the wind is in my favor, though, at least.
See if I can get this hooded 60 to keep working.
I'll tell you what – if you ever need a little trap draw 60,
I think you've got the practice in now. I think so. Hopefully, I stay out of the
bunker and I can just pitch it up now. Are we in the bunker or are we even
further up?
Ah, we got a bunker shot. We have a bunker shot. Okay.
Lay the blade open. Try and cut it a little bit but not too much.
Okay. Now is when we got to get creative.
Anything away from the Mine Shaft is a good shot here.
Oh my goodness! Saucy. Oh my goodness, I will take that any day.
That was excellent. I was gonna say any open face four iron like that usually
cuts. Yeah, exactly. Okay, so now you've actually got a
yardage that you're probably comfortable with. Yes.
Let's see 36 yards.
Looks like I have a bit of green to work with.
I like it. Okay, downwind still. Wind at your back.
Don't want the adrenaline to get to you here.
Oh, man! [Laughter]
[Music]
Nice shot. Very, very nice. Not much different than a putter.
Does he do it? A little hot, little hot. A little hot.
Okay, all right. You left me a chance. There is a door open.
One ... two ... three ...
four. I'm lying – four putting for five. You're lying. Four putting for five. Okay.
and I think you are putting for five as well. I'm putting for five, as well.
All right. It's a cut off.
[Music] Were you ever one that practiced putting
with the wedge? Yeah, absolutely. One of my favorite drills.
Maybe I should have done that drill a little more.
Oh! Just snuck away from you.
Okay, okay. I'm going to tap in my bogey here. Please do, please do.
Yeah, okay. Very nice. Six with a lob wedge on a par five, Mine Shaft.
Opportunity.
for a five.
[Music]
Oh, he left some meat on it!
That four iron's hot – it is hot! Okay,
clean it up. Did you need me to read that putt for you? I'd love it.
Yeah, where is it going? I think it's ...
We're just gonna straight through the heart, yeah, straight through.
[Music] Look we tied! We'll take it. We'll take it.
All squared up. Way to go! Sixes with one club on the
15th of the Mine Shaft. [Music]
