this video is brought to you by Dick's Sporting Goods and their new signal
slope tour Trek laser rangefinder this bad boy okay nice box don't need that
what I love this comes with a good case so many expensive range finders come
with cheap case this is a rangefinder in the to 220 range okay it has slope it
has no slope it is high speed sensor so that's good nice case I have $500 laser
rangefinders that don't have a case is good here you go
what I love is it's got image stabilization built on in so I got a one
hander I've got slope is on everything's internal so you just hit your mode
button to go from slope not slope vibration pin detection in here as well
super small sleek look at that bad boy comes with your standard lithium battery
in and out boom focal focal ring nice wide sensor black display on the inside
you know the lines are just black it's great easy to see super clear and this
is important for today's video because we need a rangefinder so you can shoot
your lowest round believe it or not it's gonna help you I'm gonna give you the
tips on how to do it we'll go back to that later first it's gonna help if we
put a ball in the fairway so let's rock and roll
do it
okay poor Trek got 157 with the slope okay
141 without the slope now I highly recommend you use the slope whenever you
can because it's really going to help you say some strokes now obviously it's
not legal in competition so don't do it in competition but to get the feel for
up and down I want you to use it with it on and I've got flag detection mode here
as well and the flag you know this course does the red white and blue or
you know the equivalent of that and I could own this is cool I could barely
see the tippy top of the flag totally locked onto it even though there's a lot
of there's a hill in the way all that good stuff so 157 but is it my carry
number right because that's where the flag is I'm going uphill the ball is
gonna hit and release a lot more than if I were flatter going downhill so my
carry distance is not 157 my carry distance is more like 150 because I've
got some room up front that's great so I want to get my 150 Club and hit that
from here always know don't always go flag as carry number we're going to stop
doing that you got to know where the flag is position on the green so I'm a
carry number now is gonna be 150 and it doesn't matter what I hit it matters
what you hit your 150 Club is going to be your ticket here okay
that was a good one let's go see if it hit around 150 and released into the
hall I didn't go in but hopefully I'm pin-high we'll see all right good good
stuff here here's my ball there's the pin just maybe a yard passed it maybe
just a guard over pin hi my ball mark is right here so I got here's my ball mark
and then one two three four five six seven eight yards of release you know
coming up hill that's pretty accurate so I'm pin high so I'm giving myself the
best opportunity if I were to carry it 157 and pulled that club out of my bag I
would have landed about pin-high and then I'd be way past the hole and have
this downhill putt so step one tip one of shaving strokes and shooting your
lowest round is make sure you know your actual carry distance okay just because
you shot the flag doesn't mean that's your carry distance back it up and know
the rollout that you're probably gonna have so that you can have the best
opportunity to make a birdie a little short
so whatever alright tip number two here what we have to do on this list a short
par 4 what we want to know is a couple things
how far is it okay to the pin so I could shoot it from here okay it's 251 to the
pin alright so par for usually a tee off way
back here but I'm doing it here so you could see the slope and all that good
stuff ok so just for you but let's say I'm laying up to this par 4 the first
thing I want to know is what is my yardage that I want to have for my
second shot tough little green accessible pin I can make birdie here if
I play it correctly going for it I mean you could go for right this is only 251
but you run the risk of a major disaster if you do that so I'm going to lay up I
would tee off you know 50 yards back there anyway so I'm gonna pick my layup
spot it's 70 yards okay so at 251 so I need to hit it what
11850 yeah about 180 181 181 okay so I want 181 what's awesome is the widest
part of the fairway is right at 180 so that's great
so I'm going to hit for the widest part of the fairway and that's give me a
great number in so just remember step two is pick your yard that you want into
the green okay then shoot that part of the fairway where you want to lay it and
make sure that you're not going at the skinny as possible pointing on the ferry
okay not only am I gonna have the widest part of the fairway but I'm also gonna
have the yardage I want in
by the way I said Nick sporting it it's actually golf galaxy is where you'll be
directed to pick up your tour track so same company basically but different
thing the difference you get the idea
hold on hold on hold on hold everything right there let's just
check something oh there's a tree out there see it the big stick and more its
269 yards from right here that's about where this could go so this would be a
dumb play okay tip three know what's out there that's going to destroy your round
and give you headaches and heartbreaks throughout the day throughout your
entire golf career I don't even want to deal with that I have a long hole but I
don't want to be in jail off the tee box now we're not I'm not calculating my
distance in I'm eliminating trouble off the tee box and that's something you
must do if you want to shoot your lowest round I've got the five wood and just
easy one put this in the fairway pretty much all day it's the easy Club to hit
and a tree no matter how good I hit this really the trees not I'm not it gonna be
a problem for me
I like that that's step three know what's going to destroy your game off
the tee box and eliminate it with your club choice just take a sec bring us to
the tee box and shoot potential problems bunkers water hazards trees whatever
stay away let's go
okay I love this whole long tough par three I have 207 to the pin 215 actual
distance so I'm going to hit a 4-iron why am I gonna hit a 4-iron what I'm
doing is I want to go to the distance that I can get up and down most of the
time okay so short left I could get up and
down from short laughs where this pin is cut if it's on the left
I'd go short right but it's in the front so short actually on this particular
hole I know I can get up and down from the short left side nine out of ten
times so what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna play a nice aggressive shot at the hole
with the draw so I'm hitting an aggressive shot if I hit it great goes
straight a touch draw I'm on the left side of the green that's beautiful if I
hit my normal shot I shouldn't be just short left so I can get up and down
there all day long I'm not looking to make birdie here if something
accidentally happens I'll take the birdie
I could chip in or I could just hit it straight and catch it but I'm gonna aim
at the stick draw it away from it don't be afraid of that and put it in a
position where because I shot it I can get up and down there most of the time
okay that's pretty good I'm short left let's see if we can't let's see no let's
go get that up and down samurai mine said let's go okay so it drew a little
more than I had anticipated which is fine but because I was playing for short
left I'm actually in a good spot to get up and down even though I'm in the
bunker but if I was going right at the hole and I didn't play the draw which
left me the most potential opportunity then I would have short side of myself
or something or short right I didn't want there I want a short left I am left
so that all is good so now I have a potential to get up and down because I
was playing for a particular shot and that's how you see how you go low
I probably make that didn't even bring my putter so I better make it a worm
worm in my way there part I wanted to be short I wasn't but I shot the artists
played the club played the number I wanted give me the best potential
opportunity for up and down and we did it one more tip okay last tip for you
using your tour trek signal slope golf galaxy link in the description below now
I have 148 to the pin that sounds weird oh it is weird look here's the deal
and don't be that guy and we've all done it okay you think you're shooting the
flag but you shot the trees behind it so you take your 148 and you you know send
it out about don't do that I don't care how good the technology is in any
rangefinder always start your first shot should be the background okay just so
you know okay and I know that's 149 those bushes so okay 117 is my number to
the flag so always shoot the trees or something
in the background back of the green back at something so you know that that is
not going to be the flag the flag is gonna be considerably less than that
obviously you know I'm gonna take everything else I've learned into
consideration here to 117 man that's a perfect gap wedge for me
because that flies like 115 it should stop right there hopefully don't suck it
back too much let's see if it works
oh I hear that how far did I hit it ooh so just don't
make the mistake no matter how good the technology it has pin seeking it has
vibration has everything still don't make the mistake that so many of us
we've all done it okay just try to do it a few less times
because you don't add on giving strokes away when you do something like that
so always shoot the bushes or whatever back there then shoot the flat come on
