1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,000
Sit back and get ready to take off with Dynamic Golf.

2
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:21,000
You can move it wherever you want.

3
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:26,000
We're in the shade now because it's not flouring off, but it's still pretty hot up here.

4
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:28,000
What's the temperature up there right now currently?

5
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:31,000
About 85ish, 82 something.

6
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:38,000
Wow, wow. Compared to the last podcast, I think it was kind of almost some snow and stuff like out there.

7
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:39,000
So that's kind of crazy.

8
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:41,000
Yep. You can hear us okay?

9
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:44,000
Yes sir, certainly can. Coming in loud and clear.

10
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:45,000
All right.

11
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:47,000
Let's go from there.

12
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:51,000
Okay. Welcome back everybody. Welcome back to Dynamic Podcast.

13
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:55,000
I'm your co-host Tim McElvanagh and with me is my fellow co-host Sean Klotz.

14
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:59,000
And today Sean, please give us a great introduction for this gentleman.

15
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:03,000
This is a great one today.

16
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:07,000
Dynamic Golf listeners, I'm really excited to have Coach Jerry York with us.

17
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:10,000
Coach, just go ahead and introduce yourself a little bit.

18
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:12,000
Say who you are and we'll fill in the rest.

19
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,000
But I know you're a very humble guy too.

20
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:20,000
A long time Oakley member. I've been going on 28 years here.

21
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:27,000
As Sean has probably told you, Tim Mack, that this is Don Ross's very first golf course.

22
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:28,000
Yes.

23
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:31,000
It's just kind of incredible to play in.

24
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:37,000
Even though it's a short course, we're probably playing at 6,000 yards here.

25
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:45,000
He had a way to put the green structures and putting surfaces to make it the highest floor.

26
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:51,000
So I'm one of those guys that I played, I love it, but it's hard for me to score here.

27
00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:55,000
So Tim Mack, it's 6,000 yards but it's also par 70.

28
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:58,000
I think that's the thing that people kind of take for granted.

29
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,000
So this is definitely shorter par fours.

30
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:05,000
But like Coach said, it's so much guarded by the greens and the structure.

31
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:08,000
And the course really hasn't changed since you've been here.

32
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:09,000
Is that right structurally?

33
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,000
No, everybody has their stone of lost here.

34
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:21,000
It still hasn't changed probably from a few different changes.

35
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:25,000
Land lost the houses.

36
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:35,000
But we're probably the first course I can think of that is Jack Nicklaus assigned houses all around.

37
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:42,000
We just put a course in the middle of the house right in the city, right in the neighborhood.

38
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:45,000
Well, the old times, that's what they kind of did.

39
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:46,000
They kind of used the land that they had.

40
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:55,000
But I think the sheer genius of what's held up to the test of time now with him is that he can make something that can last 100 years and we haven't changed it.

41
00:02:55,000 --> 00:03:00,000
Which you see a lot of other courses getting revamped and re-changed.

42
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:06,000
So, so, so listeners, we need to we need to not gloss over this fact of who we have in front of us.

43
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:12,000
I know Coach York, I've only known for a month, probably one of the most humble people I've met so far.

44
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:23,000
But Coach Jerry York, he became the winningest winningest men's college ice hockey coach in history in 2012.

45
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:32,000
He's just got an illustrious career, coached BC for 24 years, 32, 28 years, 28 years.

46
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:37,000
Coach, coached hockey for 50 years, by the way.

47
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:41,000
That's that shouldn't be glossed over.

48
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:45,000
Five times as our mower goes by.

49
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:49,000
Yeah.

50
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:50,000
That's what's the good thing about this show.

51
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,000
We're alive.

52
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:53,000
Yeah, this is what we like though, right?

53
00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,000
Team actually like to hand me out.

54
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:56,000
Absolutely.

55
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:57,000
We're we're here.

56
00:03:57,000 --> 00:03:59,000
We're on the outdoors having fun, man.

57
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:00,000
Yeah.

58
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:07,000
So he's got he's a five time NCAA college coach champion.

59
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:11,000
They won the championship four times with BC, one time with Bowling Green.

60
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:12,000
Am I doing it right so far, Coach?

61
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:13,000
Yes.

62
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:14,000
Okay.

63
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:15,000
Good.

64
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:18,000
I mean, 12 frozen fours, which is the NCAA.

65
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:22,000
You know, that's the frozen four for a basketball basically.

66
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:23,000
Yeah, the final four.

67
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:24,000
Yeah.

68
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:27,000
He went to the NCAA tournament 18 times.

69
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:28,000
I mean, I keep going.

70
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:35,000
The Beanpot, Tim McAvain and for Florida listeners who don't appreciate the Beanpot.

71
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,000
It's really one of the best college tournaments around.

72
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,000
And it's just the four teams still coaches.

73
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:40,000
Is that right?

74
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:41,000
Yes.

75
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,000
So Harvard, BC, BU.

76
00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:44,000
And Northeastern.

77
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:45,000
And Northeastern.

78
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:51,000
And up here, Team Mac, that would be like University of Florida playing FSU or Alabama

79
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:52,000
playing Auburn type of thing.

80
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:56,000
That's how distinguished that career that tournament is.

81
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:57,000
Wow.

82
00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:00,000
All four schools are within eight miles of each other.

83
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:01,000
It's crazy.

84
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:02,000
I'll go to you.

85
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:03,000
So a lot of robbery there.

86
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:04,000
Oh my gosh.

87
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,000
He's only got nine titles in that in that little deal there.

88
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:12,000
But anyways, he wouldn't have agreed if we just talked about hockey.

89
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:13,000
He wants to talk about golf.

90
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,000
Let's talk about golf.

91
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:18,000
You know, I've coached 50 years.

92
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:28,000
So I've played a lot of fundraisers, a lot of events surrounding the schools at BC and at Clarkson up in

93
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:37,000
Northern New York and Balling Green and North West Ohio, which are surrounded by great golf courses.

94
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:44,000
So I've had a chance to play some and I need Sean here to help me get my handicap down.

95
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:49,000
I'm watching his YouTube and he's got me doing all kinds of things.

96
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:52,000
I'm skipping with the one leg up in the air.

97
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,000
So hopefully I'm getting better.

98
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:57,000
Well, he's a great coach.

99
00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:02,000
I've seen him change some people swing around quite a bit and definitely take a putting lesson from him.

100
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:05,000
The guy knows a thing about the green for sure.

101
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:11,000
So, so Coach York, we're just talking literally five minutes before the podcast.

102
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:18,000
I was trying to tell him a story about how I had an instructor that I went down and I went to see down in Port St.

103
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:20,000
Lucie. His name was Rick Martino.

104
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:23,000
He was the director instruction for the PGA.

105
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:26,000
He worked at Oakmont and coach says, Oh, no, no, hold on.

106
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:29,000
I got to tell you the story about when I played Oakmont.

107
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:35,000
He's got coach just give us a little itinerary of where you've been able to.

108
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:36,000
Yeah, let's hear it.

109
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:43,000
What part of the first green they have despite the member telling me how quick it's going to be.

110
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:46,000
And I got that church, church.

111
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,000
I think I had each one of those church.

112
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:54,000
So it was a humbling day at Oakmont, but a fun, fun day.

113
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:57,000
What other courses have you had a chance to play?

114
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:00,000
I think I rate them.

115
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:08,000
I think Pine Valley, Chinacocca are probably my two favorites.

116
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:11,000
I really like the San Francisco golf club.

117
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:17,000
But without a club with a group of alumni for an event here.

118
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,000
And I always say I want to play Olympic.

119
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:20,000
I want to play Olympic.

120
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:23,000
And the guys go, listen to anyone play.

121
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,000
It was fabulous.

122
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:27,000
One hole there with a dual.

123
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:31,000
They had a notable two congressmen with duals.

124
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:33,000
One stride each other.

125
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:36,000
That's very cool.

126
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,000
That's cool.

127
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:42,000
And you know, it's just I don't know what course you play.

128
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:47,000
You get three good guys with you or ladies with you or whatever.

129
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,000
You can have a lot of laughs.

130
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:55,000
It doesn't have to be national or Inverness or something.

131
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:59,000
It's the company you keep that makes it enjoyable, right?

132
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:02,000
Yeah, it's just such a great game team.

133
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:04,000
We talk about all the time, right?

134
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:05,000
Yeah.

135
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:09,000
We talk about the people that we would dream to play with.

136
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,000
And half the time it's either our family or a friend or something like that.

137
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,000
And nobody really cares about the course.

138
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:17,000
We go play the local course around the corner, the local muni.

139
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,000
We're not going to be in the same place.

140
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:21,000
We're going to be in the same place.

141
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:25,000
As long as we've got a good group, we're happy to go, right?

142
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:30,000
And T Mac, it's one of those situations where you hit a good shot.

143
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:34,000
Oh, God, I've got this game now.

144
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:37,000
So you always try to improve and do different things.

145
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:39,000
That's the fun of it.

146
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,000
That's like life.

147
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:44,000
You coach, you always want to be better as a coach.

148
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:47,000
Every day you do challenges.

149
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:51,000
But yes, that's a fun way to go through the summers.

150
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,000
Not the winter, like you guys could do.

151
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:57,000
So, Coach, speaking about kids, I've got a little question for you.

152
00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:02,000
Being an instructor myself and all that, when you see these kids, you know,

153
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:06,000
being a coach at a high level like yourself, what are some of the attributes

154
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:09,000
or what are some of the things that you kind of look forward to?

155
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:15,000
I mean, because, or look at, you know, what are some of the great attributes

156
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:20,000
that you kind of recognize that that athlete's going to make it or not?

157
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:25,000
You know, I think the perseverance, just to keep going at it, you know,

158
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:29,000
give it a certain level of talent.

159
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:36,000
I see so many careers, you know, just end when it gets a little more grit

160
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:42,000
from the player, you know, knocking down doors and just trying to get better

161
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:47,000
every single day, the competitiveness inside you.

162
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:53,000
We've sent a lot of players from our colleges to the NHL for, you know,

163
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:56,000
for our, that make a great, great living.

164
00:09:56,000 --> 00:10:00,000
But a lot should have been there that didn't get there just because

165
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,000
they ran into some obstacles.

166
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:06,000
I think, you know, T-Mac, you become the best ball for Oakley,

167
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:08,000
and then all of a sudden you go to some other spot,

168
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:11,000
oh, where are these guys learning to play?

169
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:12,000
Yeah.

170
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:16,000
So, and then you actually have to fight through it and become the best you can.

171
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,000
Gotcha. Gotcha.

172
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,000
That's a great one, T-Mac.

173
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,000
You know, we've talked about that sometimes in our podcast about,

174
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:25,000
from the lesson perspective, right?

175
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:30,000
We give the gentleman, lady, whoever, child, junior, a lesson,

176
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:33,000
and that instantaneous, and it's become a little more the last,

177
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:37,000
we'll call it 10 years, with sort of the advent of the iPhone, social media,

178
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:41,000
some of those things, but that instantaneous gratification type of thing.

179
00:10:41,000 --> 00:10:45,000
That's not how you use a couple of Boston guys.

180
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:49,000
Ray Bork became Ray Bork, or Jerry Cheever became Jerry Cheever,

181
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:53,000
or, you know, Cam Neely, like, those are all Boston references.

182
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:55,000
Some of the people won't get that.

183
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:56,000
Yeah.

184
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:58,000
It's not how Lemieux got it. It's not how Gretzky got it.

185
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:03,000
Gretzky wasn't the fastest, biggest guy, but he understood the game,

186
00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,000
and he kept working at it every single day,

187
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,000
and I think that's from the golf side, you know,

188
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:11,000
bringing it back to what we're talking about as far as why people listen to us,

189
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,000
and why Coach York asks me every day.

190
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:17,000
He'll text me 8 o'clock at night, hey, I watched this YouTube video of you.

191
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,000
What do you think is wrong with this, right?

192
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:24,000
It's great. It's like that constant, never-ending, trying to get better at the game.

193
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:25,000
Yeah.

194
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,000
That's why we get up in the morning and do it.

195
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:28,000
Yeah.

196
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:31,000
Can you please teach them how to respond to a text?

197
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:36,000
I'm still waiting for some of those downhill sliders set up.

198
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:40,000
But, yeah, it's –

199
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:41,000
That's –

200
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,000
In golf, as fun as it could be, it could be so frustrating.

201
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:47,000
You see some of the people walk off the course that, you know,

202
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:50,000
they had four hours of the sun with good guys,

203
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:55,000
and they missed a three-quarter hour, you know, thinned out sandwich.

204
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:57,000
They all have been that.

205
00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,000
God, it's a game, you know, for us.

206
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:01,000
We're not making a living out of it.

207
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:03,000
Absolutely. You're out there to have fun, camaraderie,

208
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:07,000
and, you know, just getting out and enjoying the day.

209
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:10,000
I mean, I see so many people get uptight about swings,

210
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:13,000
and I'm like, you're not good enough to get that mad.

211
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:16,000
Yeah, because they don't put the effort in.

212
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:19,000
So to touch on something, we have to touch on TMAC,

213
00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,000
because we haven't done a podcast in a week.

214
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:22,000
Yeah.

215
00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:25,000
You know, last Friday at the PGA Championship,

216
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:27,000
I don't even want to talk about the –

217
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:29,000
I really don't want to talk about the case or the police

218
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:31,000
or anything like that, but the fact that he showed up

219
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:34,000
three and a half hours for his tee time early, right?

220
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:37,000
So I think Coach York, you can give us some insight on –

221
00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:40,000
your players don't show up on the ice, right?

222
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:46,000
That amount of exercise, weight room, stretching,

223
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:49,000
watching video, I imagine probably came up throughout your years

224
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:51,000
as a coach, like, change.

225
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:53,000
Yeah, I mean, just some insight on that.

226
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:56,000
I mean, the background of those type of golfers,

227
00:12:56,000 --> 00:13:02,000
how serious they take the event, remarkable.

228
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:06,000
It carries over to, you know, Kobe Bryant in basketball,

229
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:11,000
how he prepared for games, and, you know,

230
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:15,000
Brad Moczano from the Bruins here,

231
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:18,000
who just lost, but he'd be the same way.

232
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,000
He's there so early for games.

233
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:22,000
And I'm not going to watch some of the baseball players,

234
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:26,000
you know, 8 o'clock game, getting to the pocket,

235
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:29,000
1 o'clock in the afternoon, about later, right?

236
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,000
It's just the work of, like, got to stretching.

237
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:37,000
And we've got guys running from our golf, from our car,

238
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:40,000
up the steps, grab a club and score the first tee.

239
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,000
Why not get it through all of this, right?

240
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,000
Right, right.

241
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:48,000
So, like you say, T-Mac, the expectation level's got to change

242
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:51,000
with the player, and I don't want to come off negative.

243
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:54,000
It's just be realistic with your, like Coach just said,

244
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:57,000
like you say, T-Mac, be realistic with your expectations.

245
00:13:57,000 --> 00:14:00,000
You know, understand, hey, we're just going to go out there

246
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:01,000
and have a good time.

247
00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:02,000
Let's do that.

248
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:05,000
It can be a social event, but you can't be throwing clubs

249
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:08,000
or getting mad at yourself based on how much you put into the game.

250
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,000
Well, I mean, if you want to get to the next level,

251
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,000
you've got to put in, you know, you've got to be there

252
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:14,000
three or four hours ahead of time.

253
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,000
That's why Scottie Scheffler's number one in the world.

254
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:21,000
You know, you've got to put that time in, that effort in to, you know, do that.

255
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:25,000
And I see, you know, I've got a couple students that are really good,

256
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:30,000
you know, probably Division I students, and I just, they just don't,

257
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:33,000
they could put a lot more work into it, you know,

258
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:37,000
be more apt about their practice, their nutrition, their sleep.

259
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:41,000
But, you know, as Coach said, you know, they get to a little bit tougher area

260
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:45,000
and they just kind of, you know, kind of shy away from it, to be honest with you.

261
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,000
Yes, sir, yeah.

262
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:50,000
I don't let that tournament go without, you know,

263
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:56,000
that last hole there with Deshambault, last roll of the ball,

264
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:59,000
go again, and we're thinking of a playoff,

265
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:03,000
and now all of a sudden the three-foot is to win, you know, 10 minutes later.

266
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:09,000
And I did watch Scott's putting lesson last night on YouTube,

267
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:11,000
and he talked about the three-foot putt.

268
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:17,000
He said, now listen, even the four is only, I think, an average of seven out of 10.

269
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:21,000
So here's a guy who could win a first major and he's got a three-foot putt,

270
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:23,000
and he just drains it.

271
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,000
Well, actually, we went around the cup to, yep, yep, we did.

272
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:29,000
Yeah, that was a good capture by the cup, to be honest with you.

273
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:33,000
That was, the cup kind of got up there and snagged that ball for him a little bit,

274
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:36,000
but good for Xander Schauffele, a gracious winner,

275
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:39,000
and I'm glad to see him win his first major, for sure.

276
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:42,000
Hey, Matt, let me divert something.

277
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:46,000
So do you have a specific pre-shot routine that you do every time?

278
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:48,000
Yeah, I do.

279
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:52,000
I kind of, to be honest with you, I waggle the club quite a bit until I get ready.

280
00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:55,000
It's kind of like a Nick Price, to be honest with you.

281
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:58,000
I get kind of teased about it a little bit, but people like it, so it is what it is.

282
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:00,000
That's kind of my pre-shot routine.

283
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:02,000
Yeah, we've talked about this before.

284
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:06,000
Mine is between 16.9 and 17.1 seconds.

285
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:08,000
That's my pre-shot routine.

286
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:11,000
Steph Curry, you give him a basketball to do a free throw.

287
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:14,000
You tell him to bounce it twice, he's going to miss.

288
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:16,000
He only bounces it once, right?

289
00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:17,000
Yeah.

290
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:22,000
So my question to coaches, hockey's such an active sport type of thing.

291
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:24,000
Not necessarily a pre-shot routine, but when they're on the bench,

292
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:27,000
getting ready to go back on the ice, like is there,

293
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,000
do they do the same thing when they come off,

294
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:32,000
or are they just trying to get rest, are they looking at video,

295
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:35,000
what are they kind of, how are they getting them prepared to get back on the ice?

296
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:39,000
As a coach, how are you doing that too, or as an assistant coach?

297
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:45,000
Well, I think that the player is, you know, resting, he comes back,

298
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:49,000
he's got to catch his breath, and really kind of sort of breathing for,

299
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:54,000
you know, 15, 20 seconds, and then start thinking about the next shift.

300
00:16:54,000 --> 00:17:00,000
Because if he starts thinking about that missed puttum 17, he'd be a wreck at the 18th tee.

301
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:04,000
And, you know, hockey's mistakes made, you know,

302
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:09,000
you miss a check, you have wide open net, you go over it,

303
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:14,000
so when you get back, that chip's gone, and you kind of go into your next snap.

304
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:19,000
So that's really important, I think, in hockey, and I think that carries over to golf too.

305
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:23,000
Yeah, that's great advice right there for the crowd, right?

306
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:27,000
Absolutely, you know, how many times do we miss that puttum?

307
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:30,000
Who was the PGA golf, was it?

308
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:37,000
Macklew, they had the waggle, Casir, Sergio, everyone hit it awful.

309
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:42,000
Yeah, I've got kind of a little Sergio kind of thing, I kind of waggle the club,

310
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:45,000
and I couldn't tell you for certain how many times I waggle that thing,

311
00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:50,000
but I try to keep myself active, and then once I kind of feel that shot in my head,

312
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:52,000
boom, off I go.

313
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:56,000
That's a good point right there too, is you don't want to stay stiff and static.

314
00:17:56,000 --> 00:18:00,000
We gave a ladies clinic on Wednesday night, had about 30 ladies.

315
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,000
Again, we talk about this all the time.

316
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:05,000
If we presented a men's clinic, we might get two people,

317
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:09,000
but the ladies are more interested and active and want to,

318
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:12,000
I wouldn't say want to get better, they're more open to it.

319
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:18,000
But, you know, as we're teaching, you seem to do this,

320
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:21,000
Macklew, go up there and hold the staff to the club right below their hands.

321
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:25,000
It's amazing how much stress there is on that staff, right?

322
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:28,000
They're nervous, they're nervous, they're in front of you,

323
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:31,000
they're trying to do the right thing, they're so focused that they forget

324
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:34,000
that it's an athletic move, like Coach DeSess.

325
00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:40,000
You've got to be ready to make, it's that fusion of mental and physical together.

326
00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:41,000
Yes.

327
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:46,000
Kind of where that line is, and golf is very difficult because it's static.

328
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:49,000
Something's going to happen until you activate it, right?

329
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:53,000
Correct, correct, but you've got to bring that interathlete out somehow,

330
00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:56,000
you know, that athlete of some sort.

331
00:18:56,000 --> 00:19:02,000
And I just find for myself, if I just stand over the ball, I'm not good.

332
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:08,000
No, it's the putting thing, it's the matter of not, you know,

333
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:10,000
again, the routine for putting is so important.

334
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:14,000
Shockley makes the putt because he doesn't deviate from the routine.

335
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:17,000
He's made it millions of three-footers.

336
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:19,000
Yes, I know.

337
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:24,000
But Tim Mack, you and Sean are going to talk about this because you talk about grip pressure.

338
00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:25,000
Yeah.

339
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:29,000
You know, Ben Hogue way back holds the club like a bird,

340
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:34,000
but all of us get up there and you can see the veins popping, you know.

341
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:38,000
You're picking, I don't know, I've got to be soft, I am soft,

342
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:43,000
but it's a hard thing to do when you're long pass three over the water

343
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:47,000
and your hands are like, what do you take guess for a sandwich of golf?

344
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,000
How do we stop that?

345
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:52,000
You know, what I kind of do when I get in pressure situations like that

346
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:56,000
where I start to feel the grip pressure, I actually squeeze the heck out of the club a couple times.

347
00:19:56,000 --> 00:20:01,000
And then once I grab that club after the second or third time, that tension's gone.

348
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:02,000
You know, that's just what I kind of do.

349
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:05,000
I know that it's there, so let's face the problem.

350
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:08,000
So I just squeeze the club a couple of times really hard.

351
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:11,000
And then once I get that tension out, then it's just kind of, you know,

352
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:16,000
feel those soft forearms and just let it roll and don't worry about the results.

353
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:21,000
My answer to the question would be a little bit of the Tim Holtz lesson

354
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:25,000
that we had a couple of months ago when I was talking about grip pressure.

355
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:31,000
And essentially, the thing is to keep the pressure consistent all the way through.

356
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:37,000
Hang on.

357
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:41,000
So one of the best examples would be Jack Nicklaus, right?

358
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:45,000
Nicklaus covered the golf club because Tim Flick told him to hover the golf club.

359
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:46,000
Yeah.

360
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:50,000
The reason why he did it was so the consistent grip pressure stayed throughout the entire motion.

361
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:53,000
He didn't ground the club.

362
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:58,000
And then as soon as you lift the club off the ground, you're going to add pressure in your hands.

363
00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:03,000
So, you know, it's an easy thing to talk about, a hard thing to do,

364
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:07,000
especially like Coach said out here, hole number 15 in Oakley is 100,

365
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:12,000
depending on where you're playing at, 140, 160, overwater, completely overwater.

366
00:21:12,000 --> 00:21:13,000
There's no bailout.

367
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:18,000
So you have to be committed to the shot and you have to allow the club head to release some speed,

368
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:19,000
all that type of stuff.

369
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:22,000
As soon as you hold it tighter, it's going to stop.

370
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:28,000
It's going to inhibit your speed and you're barely going to hit the ground and kind of hit a bad shot.

371
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:36,000
So I do have a few tightness, full V1s in that pond.

372
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:43,000
T-Mac, on the grip pressure, it's tough to listen to your show.

373
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:48,000
You're going to hold it softly, but boy, it gets the ball sometimes, then you re-grip it.

374
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:54,000
So I'm going to just take it consistent with you before that re-grip just kind of.

375
00:21:54,000 --> 00:22:00,000
So, T-Mac, just the continuation of Tim's lesson was when I get to a five and six iron,

376
00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:02,000
this is a good one for you, Coach.

377
00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:06,000
When it comes to about their hybrids, I would say, wedges, nine irons, eight irons,

378
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:10,000
our swing speed is much slower than it is with a five, six iron or hybrid.

379
00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:11,000
Correct.

380
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,000
That's established because the club is longer.

381
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:17,000
So my problem is five and six irons keeping the ball point straight.

382
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:22,000
So Tim Poth told me, grip the club tighter, but just keep it consistent all the way through

383
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:26,000
because we know the five and six irons are going to be swung faster.

384
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:30,000
So the face is going to deflect more at that speed, right, T-Mac?

385
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:33,000
Correct. You're absolutely correct on that. Yes, sir.

386
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:38,000
Yeah. So by gripping a club a little tighter, it's okay as long as it's consistently tight

387
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:43,000
the entire time. And then I've hit some of my most straight five and six irons,

388
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:46,000
long irons, because we get that question a lot from students.

389
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:48,000
How do we get our long irons better?

390
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:52,000
It's okay to grip it tighter because you're going to keep the face more square through impact

391
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:57,000
and therefore, you know, the ball flight is going to be straighter.

392
00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:02,000
So what I'm saying is I don't have the same grip pressure on my five iron as I do for my lob

393
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:06,000
60 degree shot from 15 yards off the green.

394
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:07,000
Yeah.

395
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:08,000
There's no curving like that.

396
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:12,000
Yeah. It just makes sense. I mean, with accelerated speed, you're going to have to have greater force to hold it.

397
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:17,000
So, you know, if you just, you know, with probably, as you said, once about past the six iron,

398
00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:22,000
five iron and stuff like this, the grip pressure is going to gain a little bit on the Newtons on that for sure.

399
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:27,000
It's part of the reason Bryson went to the jumbo max grips. 100%.

400
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:31,000
He wanted something he could hold and grab onto.

401
00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:35,000
He didn't want to have a thinner, smaller object, we'll call it.

402
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:41,000
So by doing that, he can now put as much pressure he wants in his hands, but then really turn his shoulders.

403
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:44,000
That's where he gets a big part of his power.

404
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:49,000
Yeah. And to touch on touch on Bryson, I think he's going to be a big favorite for the US Open.

405
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:52,000
I mean, he's been in contention for the last two majors.

406
00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:55,000
So I'm anxious to see that guy go hard at the...

407
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:57,000
Is he allowed to play in it? Are they putting him in?

408
00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:03,000
He's a US Open champ, isn't he? I think so. I'm not sure if there's things up.

409
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:08,000
I think it's the same thing. I think the live, that's part of the reason the live guys are the live guys.

410
00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:18,000
They can still play in every major except for the players championship because that's the PGA sanction one.

411
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:22,000
So, but they get all the majors. So yeah.

412
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:27,000
While we got coach here, I got a question for me. Got me thinking, so coach,

413
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:35,000
the reason why Bryson is different than the player from 30 years ago, meaning like Corey Pavin or Tom Kite, the guys who hit it shorter.

414
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:43,000
Those guys couldn't compete now because you got Scheffler and Bryson and Rory just hitting these bomb drives.

415
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:48,000
So what's the difference in hockey? The goalies have more padding, right? They're bigger.

416
00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:51,000
They're more dexterous or whatever.

417
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:57,000
But the speed that I remember from Wayne Gretzky, Paul Coffee, like these guys back in the...

418
00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:01,000
It's not faster, right? They're bigger and faster as far as players.

419
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:05,000
No question. I was glued last night to the World Championships with Prague.

420
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:13,000
The US was playing Czechia, a 1-0 game, but it was like as fast as...

421
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:19,000
I mean, these are the best players in the world coming from the NHL representing their countries.

422
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:24,000
And you know, Pasnick and Zakic were the blue ones.

423
00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:29,000
And we're our players from BC, Matt Boldy.

424
00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:36,000
I think he's going to be the next American superstar in the NHL, a Modena or Brian Leach type of player.

425
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:45,000
But he's just a big, strong set of ice men that's in fabulous shape as all these top end players are.

426
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:51,000
And they're just quicker and they're just the better golfers, you know, the better hockey players.

427
00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:54,000
Better baseball players. They're just getting bigger.

428
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:56,000
They're getting stronger.

429
00:25:56,000 --> 00:26:01,000
I don't know how much you've seen this, but if you go watch some YouTube videos of Connor McDavid

430
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:06,000
and some of his pre... some of his hand drills, the kid from Chicago.

431
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:08,000
Yeah, the dark.

432
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:13,000
Like, it's amazing what they're doing with the puck and these pre-shot or pre-game drills.

433
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:19,000
It's just... it's... it's... when Tiger makes the Nike commercial 20 years ago

434
00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:24,000
where he's just sitting on the range, tapping the ball in the club and then hitting it,

435
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:28,000
the cameramen are like, what the heck did you just do?

436
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:29,000
You know, the...

437
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:32,000
What the guys are doing is just... it's jaw dropping.

438
00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:35,000
And then you realize why their hands are so good at the game.

439
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:42,000
Hey, Matt, you're sitting right now, hopefully, the next Stanley Cup winner down there, the Panthers, Florida Panthers.

440
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:46,000
One of my former players is the assistant general manager, Brett Peterson.

441
00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:47,000
Okay.

442
00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:52,000
And, you know, they got a great chance, you know, the ranges are good.

443
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:58,000
It's probably going to be a seven game series, but, you know, like Tampa did a number of years ago,

444
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:03,000
if Florida gets going now, wins the Stanley Cup, the state's going to be, you know,

445
00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:05,000
it's clearly a football state.

446
00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:12,000
You know, Coach, I've got to say that when hockey came down here, you know, 25 years ago, 30 years ago,

447
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:16,000
I didn't really think it had a Snowballs chance and you know what.

448
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:22,000
But I'll tell you what, Tampa Bay really rallied to it and hockey is huge down here.

449
00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:26,000
I mean, it's almost rivalry in football, almost, to be honest with you.

450
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:27,000
It's amazing.

451
00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:31,000
I think we've got the most sellouts on the NHL right now, most consecutive sellouts.

452
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:34,000
They're like 500, you know, 562 or something, the Lightning.

453
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:36,000
Also because they deliver a great product.

454
00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:37,000
Yeah.

455
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:39,000
And it's a great location, too, to be honest with you.

456
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:40,000
Great location.

457
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:41,000
Family.

458
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:43,000
Coach would say this, too, I would think.

459
00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:49,000
I don't know, but the sport in person is miles better than it is on TV.

460
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:50,000
Right.

461
00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:51,000
Yeah.

462
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:52,000
It's just the opposite of golf.

463
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:53,000
Yeah.

464
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:57,000
Because they go to the golf tournaments and you need a periscope to look over and.

465
00:27:57,000 --> 00:27:58,000
Yeah.

466
00:27:58,000 --> 00:27:59,000
Yeah.

467
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:02,000
On TV, golf is fascinating for me.

468
00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:03,000
Yeah.

469
00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:04,000
It's just the opposite of hockey.

470
00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:05,000
Yeah.

471
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,000
What else can we help you with in your game?

472
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:10,000
You've got a couple of PGA guys who are pretty good at their jobs.

473
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:12,000
You got anything else you want to know about?

474
00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:13,000
Yeah.

475
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:14,000
What can we answer for you, coach?

476
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:20,000
Well, getting off the backside, the long time pro here, Scott Johnson has worked with me

477
00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:22,000
for 24 years now.

478
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:29,000
And, you know, he loves my golf swing, except he always ends up with my right foot, my weight.

479
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:31,000
I'm trying to get that shifted over.

480
00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:33,000
That's the hardest thing for me.

481
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:39,000
Most of the guys I play with don't finish like this guy I'm talking to, Scott, with

482
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:43,000
that high finish and the shoulder turn.

483
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:47,000
But how do we keep going to get off that right side?

484
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:49,000
That's my question.

485
00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:50,000
Yeah.

486
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:51,000
Yeah.

487
00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:53,000
John, you want to take this one or you want me to answer this one?

488
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:58,000
I can put my two cents in, so I'll go and I'll let you think about it for a second.

489
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:04,000
But basically, my best drill with that question to people is to take practice swings, take

490
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:13,000
your right hand off the golf club, take your right hand off the golf club.

491
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:15,000
Jerry's getting up to do it because he wants to.

492
00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:16,000
I like it.

493
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:17,000
I like it.

494
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:20,000
Yeah, so you're not going to not going to ground it, Jerry.

495
00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:22,000
Take your right hand off the club right before impact.

496
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:23,000
Yep.

497
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:24,000
And then what you display your left arm.

498
00:29:24,000 --> 00:29:25,000
There you go.

499
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:26,000
Right.

500
00:29:26,000 --> 00:29:27,000
He just did it.

501
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:28,000
I wish I had the YouTube going right now.

502
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:29,000
He just did it.

503
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:31,000
We're downstairs in the patio.

504
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:32,000
We need to get the cameras rolling.

505
00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:34,000
Yeah, exactly.

506
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:35,000
Got to get the cameras rolling.

507
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:36,000
Yeah.

508
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:38,000
When you take these.

509
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:40,000
I wish I had the video.

510
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:46,000
It's so people use their dominant hand, which typically their right hand.

511
00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:47,000
We talked about that before.

512
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:54,000
But when you let go with that back arm and let the lead, the leading arm control the golf

513
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:57,000
club, you get to a natural finish.

514
00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:58,000
Correct.

515
00:29:58,000 --> 00:29:59,000
You just did it.

516
00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:00,000
Yeah.

517
00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:03,000
The right hand, a little bit of grip pressure.

518
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:04,000
The right hand holds on right.

519
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:05,000
Right.

520
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:06,000
Right.

521
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:07,000
And impact.

522
00:30:07,000 --> 00:30:11,000
And you kind of think, yeah, instead of letting go, letting the left arm and the left, the

523
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:12,000
left side.

524
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:13,000
Yep.

525
00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:15,000
Now he's got this perfect finish team back right foot off the ground.

526
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:16,000
I know.

527
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:17,000
Well, that's part of it.

528
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:20,000
You got to do it in practice form first.

529
00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:21,000
Right.

530
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:28,000
But my my stat of the day or whatever, I feel like David Patrick is four players finished

531
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:33,000
with 96 percent of the weight on their left side or on their lead side of my college.

532
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:34,000
Correct.

533
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:38,000
They finished with percent of their weight on their back foot over here at Oakley Country

534
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:40,000
Club on the first tee box today.

535
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:45,000
We will see sometimes the opposite of that number or more importantly, usually 50 50.

536
00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:48,000
They don't get their weight off the backside.

537
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:49,000
No, no.

538
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:52,000
I think you got to do it in practice swing.

539
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:57,000
And then and then to coach's point, you can hit golf balls coach with your right hand.

540
00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:01,000
You just take the right thumb and right forefinger off the club, both hands on there.

541
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:04,000
But now you got eight fingers controlling it instead of.

542
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:05,000
Yeah.

543
00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:09,000
Because it's that right thumb, right forefinger team that we see it all day long.

544
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:11,000
I'm over the top, right?

545
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:12,000
Yep.

546
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:13,000
Correct.

547
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:15,000
You know, I have I play with my brother a lot.

548
00:31:15,000 --> 00:31:16,000
He back.

549
00:31:16,000 --> 00:31:23,000
You know, we'll take videos of our driver and I really got off my right side.

550
00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:27,000
I didn't go look at it when I was coming up the fairway.

551
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:28,000
Oh, it's like three quarters.

552
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:29,000
The weight is still there.

553
00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:30,000
I'm up.

554
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:31,000
It's a false turn.

555
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:33,000
I mean, my weight's still back there.

556
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:34,000
Gotcha.

557
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:35,000
Gotcha.

558
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:40,000
A drill that I typically use with my students is I get them to grab the impact bag.

559
00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:42,000
Sean knows what an impact bag is.

560
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:46,000
It's basically just a big bag stuff with towels that we use for impacting the club.

561
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:48,000
And I get them to hold that.

562
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:51,000
And then I make them make a backswing and then I have them throw it to me.

563
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:58,000
And with that throwing motion, they typically get the feeling of that right side coming through impact.

564
00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:08,000
Another drill that I have them do is just go down to the pond and take some stones and skip some stones on the water and get that natural feel that we we did as kids.

565
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:12,000
I try to get back to that and what we used to do as younger people.

566
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:14,000
Yeah, I know the impact back.

567
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:18,000
So yeah, actually just pick it up and bring it back and throw.

568
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:26,000
Yep, yep. I just stand over to the left and let them throw it hard at me and they get a they get a little sense of enjoyment doing that for sure.

569
00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:32,000
One of the best drills in the gym is taking up that like four pound six pound medicine ball.

570
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:39,000
And basically doing what you're just talking about to get back any golf position golf stance and throw it against the wall and catch it.

571
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:40,000
Yep. Right.

572
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:42,000
Yeah, that's a really good one.

573
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:43,000
It's just it's explosion.

574
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:44,000
That's what we're trying to get to.

575
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:46,000
We're trying to explode off the ground.

576
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:47,000
Yeah.

577
00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:51,000
Forget about posting and all these other terms that they're important.

578
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:55,000
But the average bear, the average golfer needs to get off that backside.

579
00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:56,000
It's a great question.

580
00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:57,000
Yeah.

581
00:32:57,000 --> 00:33:04,000
But yeah, to be able to do you remember at CMAC when I was coaching the high school team, you were I think you were helping me in one of those years.

582
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:06,000
We would stand in the ninth fairway.

583
00:33:06,000 --> 00:33:09,000
We have the kids throw the golf club towards the 150 yard marker.

584
00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:12,000
Yes. Yes. Yes. I love that drill.

585
00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:14,000
Right. It's the same thing.

586
00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:22,000
I had somebody do it downstairs and track me and they hit the wall behind them because they hold on with the club so far the club goes back behind the left.

587
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:30,000
You got to get the club to extend the feeling of the club going out in front of you to the right, not left, not left.

588
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:33,000
And that that right hand that backhand just dominates so much.

589
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:37,000
It's full of actually iron all the way down the field.

590
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:38,000
Yeah. Yeah.

591
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:44,000
And if you're aiming at a target, 150 marker tree, whatever you want to do, you throw the club.

592
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:47,000
So it goes to the right hand side of the target.

593
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:48,000
The marker.

594
00:33:48,000 --> 00:33:49,000
You don't have to.

595
00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:51,000
You can't hold on with your right hand.

596
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:54,000
The sooner you do, the club goes behind you.

597
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:55,000
That's what it is.

598
00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:57,000
So again, it's all practice.

599
00:33:57,000 --> 00:34:00,000
But to have the golf ball in front of you and do all these things, it's the next level.

600
00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:01,000
Yeah.

601
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:08,000
And from there, it's the next level of doing it in competition and then playing for five dollars and then playing in your senior championship.

602
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:09,000
Correct.

603
00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:10,000
Absolutely.

604
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:11,000
Absolutely.

605
00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:16,000
I was thinking about golf and how I really get interested.

606
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:19,000
I always played, but I was never really interested.

607
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:20,000
I'm at Bowling Green.

608
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:22,000
I'm going to put a name at you.

609
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:24,000
You might both guys might remember.

610
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:32,000
But AJ Bonner was a club pro at the University of Coors, coached our team.

611
00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:37,000
He came out with a series of videos where he hit a home run.

612
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:40,000
Have you ever heard him in all his videos?

613
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:42,000
It was really big back there.

614
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:43,000
I'd say that.

615
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:45,000
No, I haven't heard of him.

616
00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:48,000
But I mean, I think that's really what a lot of the pros are doing now.

617
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:52,000
Just, you know, hit it hard and go get it really.

618
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:55,000
I mean, smash and grab.

619
00:34:55,000 --> 00:34:57,000
Yeah, it's interesting.

620
00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:58,000
You gotta look him up.

621
00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:01,000
AJ Bonner, he had a series of videos.

622
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:06,000
Once he moved to San Diego, he started like a San Diego golf academy.

623
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:15,000
And he had this whole, you know, before video really became, you know, what do you call the old films, the DVRs.

624
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:16,000
DVDs.

625
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:17,000
DVDs, yeah.

626
00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:26,000
But it's interesting to look up and actually back at a golf club with like a little baseball bat in the bottom.

627
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:30,000
Where you hit, you try to just hit a home run.

628
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:35,000
So you flick your hands and you do it from his knees, you do it sitting down.

629
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:38,000
It'd be good for you guys to look at.

630
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:39,000
I think you'd enjoy that.

631
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:42,000
I'm pulling him up on YouTube right now as we speak, my friend.

632
00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:45,000
I'm all into it already now.

633
00:35:45,000 --> 00:35:47,000
He's a great guy.

634
00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:51,000
Every Friday afternoon, he'd take three coaches out and play.

635
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:55,000
Bowen Green had a university golf course right there.

636
00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:57,000
So we'd play 18 with him.

637
00:35:57,000 --> 00:36:03,000
He was just remarkably insightful and a great guy to listen to.

638
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:05,000
So he got us all involved.

639
00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:07,000
Hit a home run, he said.

640
00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:09,000
I love that.

641
00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:10,000
I love that.

642
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:14,000
He played in the airfield, I figured he had in Ohio.

643
00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:17,000
Oh, I need to know how was that?

644
00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:19,000
How was Muirfield?

645
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:23,000
Well, John Hines was a big Jack Nicklaus.

646
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:27,000
He kind of followed him around, but he became his general manager at Murfield.

647
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:31,000
And he brought us out.

648
00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:39,000
My brother, my son, and stayed in the cabins there right there on the clubhouse.

649
00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:45,000
We played 18 with John, so the second day we came out to play, he says,

650
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:47,000
we're going to get a little surprise here, Jerry.

651
00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:51,000
Jack's going to come out and just walk a few holes in there.

652
00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:53,000
That's great.

653
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:59,000
So he gets out and I figured that the par 3 over the water or the sand trap in the back of it,

654
00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:01,000
I figure out what number that is.

655
00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:03,000
So that's where he shows up.

656
00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:06,000
So I thought I was playing pretty well.

657
00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:09,000
Talk about we grew up in the golf club.

658
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:19,000
I hit the ball, I was so tight, nervous on it, but that was a great golf course.

659
00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:25,000
John Hines, actually we had a big, we met dinner here a number of years ago.

660
00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:27,000
We were honoring him and his wife Ellen.

661
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:32,000
We were great friends of Jack and Barbara Nicklaus.

662
00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:37,000
That to me was a fabulous two days.

663
00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:41,000
Murrfield was, I keep on looking back where the ball was playing,

664
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:45,000
where I was playing from, it was a completely different golf course.

665
00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:48,000
Sure, I'm absolutely sure.

666
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:53,000
Would you say it's better or on par with Augusta National?

667
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:59,000
I've never played Augusta National, but I think it's, you've been there, real?

668
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:00,000
No, I've never been there.

669
00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:01,000
What?

670
00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:02,000
Coach, we're going.

671
00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:04,000
We're going, come on coach.

672
00:38:04,000 --> 00:38:06,000
Road trip.

673
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:13,000
T-Mac, if you ever get to play Murrfield, there's a course like five miles away called the golf club.

674
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:16,000
It's an amazing golf course.

675
00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:21,000
The background, the books here and everything, I was reading about it.

676
00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:32,000
A member of the Columbus Country Club got so frustrated with slow play and swimming pools and all that part,

677
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:34,000
he just built his own golf course.

678
00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:40,000
He brought in, I think it was Jones, some really good architect,

679
00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:43,000
and he said just spend as much money as you want.

680
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:46,000
But you've got to look it up, the golf club.

681
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:54,000
It's simply called the golf club, it's in New Albany, Ohio, and it's close to Murrfield.

682
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:55,000
Wow.

683
00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:56,000
Yeah.

684
00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:59,000
T-Mac, I told coach we could probably do three of these today.

685
00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:00,000
He's got so much knowledge.

686
00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:04,000
It's been such a great honor and really just great time.

687
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:08,000
I know he's, like I said, one of the most humble guys I know.

688
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:13,000
I'm looking forward to the summer to get more text at 8 a.m. or 8 p.m.

689
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:14,000
Perfect.

690
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:18,000
And hopefully if you come up here, we'll introduce you to him in person.

691
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:19,000
Yeah.

692
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:24,000
T-Mac, we need, because Sean says he's going to send you down a Oakley golf shirt,

693
00:39:24,000 --> 00:39:26,000
so we just need your size.

694
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:29,000
If he doesn't do it, please call me in a week and I'll get one for you.

695
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:30,000
Yes, sir, Mr. York.

696
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:31,000
Thank you, thank you.

697
00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:34,000
I'm a size medium, just so you know, so just send that out.

698
00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:36,000
But yeah, yeah, that would be great.

699
00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:37,000
Thanks, guys.

700
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:40,000
Are you a Johnny old guy?

701
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:41,000
Am I what?

702
00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:45,000
A bit of a daddy guy, Johnny old guy, Peter Malat.

703
00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:46,000
What do you like?

704
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:49,000
Who do I like for the senior championship?

705
00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:51,000
No, for your golf shirts.

706
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:55,000
We got some fancier stuff down at Lake Parnadette and Silverado, sir.

707
00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:59,000
Oh, yeah, I'm not used to all that fancy stuff.

708
00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:03,000
We got Lululemon, we got Johnny O, we got Turtleson.

709
00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:07,000
Scott does a great job at keeping the Pro Shop stock,

710
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:09,000
and we'll find one good for you.

711
00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:11,000
Yeah, something simple.

712
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:15,000
I'm not a very big flashy guy, so.

713
00:40:15,000 --> 00:40:20,000
If Sean's lost your address, he's saying, you have to hang up.

714
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:21,000
I get it, but I get it.

715
00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:25,000
Hey, team, again, Jerry, thank you so much for coming on board with us.

716
00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:26,000
Really appreciate it.

717
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:28,000
Hope we got some drills for you.

718
00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:30,000
I guess I like that.

719
00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:32,000
Yeah, so.

720
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:35,000
Throwing that weighted medicine ball.

721
00:40:35,000 --> 00:40:37,000
There you go, that impact bag.

722
00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:40,000
Throw that impact bag a couple of times, that medicine ball against the wall.

723
00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:41,000
You'll get that finish.

724
00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:43,000
You'll get that follow through.

725
00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:44,000
Yep.

726
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:45,000
So, well.

727
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:46,000
Don has one in his trunk.

728
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:49,000
I've got to get it from him.

729
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:51,000
So, thank you, everybody.

730
00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:54,000
Mr. York, thank you so much for being on Dynamic Card.

731
00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:55,000
Jerry, Jerry, please.

732
00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:56,000
Jerry, thank you.

733
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:57,000
Thank you.

734
00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:58,000
And it was great.

735
00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:01,000
Sean, thank you again.

736
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:05,000
Last words, anything you got for us before we break, sir?

737
00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:06,000
Always good.

738
00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:11,000
Next week we've got Scott Johnson, who is a two-time All-American at University of Tampa.

739
00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:15,000
He's also the head professional at Oakley Country Club for the last 24 years.

740
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:17,000
He'll be a great interview just for a lot of different reasons,

741
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:19,000
and we look forward to having him.

742
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:21,000
So, just keep going, team, back.

743
00:41:21,000 --> 00:41:22,000
Sounds great.

744
00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:23,000
Really excited.

745
00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:25,000
So, thank you so much, and we look forward to seeing you guys

746
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:37,000
