Speaking of videos, we have our own YouTube page. Go to and search Bubble Watson Foreplay. That's the best way to find it because we put the entire video of the Bubba Watson interview.

It's on our YouTube page.

The best way to find it, go to Bubba Watson Foreplay. Just look that up on YouTube, Bubba Watson, For Play. Subscribe. We're going to put a bunch of videos up there. We have the entire hour-long interview with Bubba Watson, Ted Scott, and myself. So go check us out.

Supreme Golf, YouTube, all kinds of good stuff. Wesley Bryant, Big Show, let's go. Two shows a week. That means it's officially golf season, which is weird because it's still kind of cold up here, very cold. Nobody's playing golf up here. But the PGA tour schedule is condensed. The whole thing ends in August now, which is crazy town. It's just not going to be any golf from like September through basically the rest of the year outside of the early events in the wrap around season, which people don't really care that much about.

However, we're doing two shows a week. We are two shows a week all the way through August. You're welcome. We got Wesley Bryan on this show. Last time we had him on was February 2017. Since then, he won. He won the RBC Heritage a couple months afterwards. We're going to talk to him about that.

He was a trick shot artist. He won a bunch of times on the web.com tour, and then he won on the PGA tour. Right now he's injured, so he's just got all day to talk to us. So that's what he's going to do. We haven't actually interviewed him yet. But I do remember he'll be very funny and very interesting. He's been very active on Twitter because, again, I think he's just bored.

This podcast, we either have top five players in the world or people who are on their couch injured. Yeah, correct. That's been recently the thing. was injured. And it makes sense. If you're injured, you're like, I'll just talk to you, idiots, about golf for a while. Yeah, we would never root for injuries, but it's easier to get podcast guests. Wesley Bryan is a good, good Southern boy who doesn't really curse much.

If you remember last time we had him on, and the show was grown a ton since then, so a lot of you probably have never heard him before. But we asked him, what's your go-to curse word after you hit a bad shot? And he said something like fart nuggets or something like that? I think that's what it was. Was that what it was? Yeah. So it's interesting when he gets.

in with us. He's a very cool guy. Which I think is more offensive than most curse with. I think you're probably right. Like if you say that, people are going to be like, what is wrong with you? He's a cool guy. And he likes to chat. He's obsessed with golf. Like I said, he did the trick-shot thing with his brother, the Brian Bros.

I think that's what they are for a long time. And then obviously made it on the PGG tour, one of the BGU tour, so he knows how to play some golf. So we got him coming up later in the show. We're coming off a hot streak. If you haven't checked out, I just want to give people a reminder, since we're should be hitting you with all kinds of golf, content. We had Danielle Kang on two days ago. She'll be playing. I think she said she's playing

in Thailand. Is it the first time she's playing? Um, which that event is the February 21st to 24th. I've long tweeted about Lady Golf about the LPGA. I think that they get more drama than anybody watching the Saturday and Sunday night coverage of those events is awesome. And now, if you hadn't heard Danielle King before, the third time she was on the show. She's very cool. She's very funny. And she's someone you should absolutely be rooting for. If you have it, listen, go check out that show. We had Bubba Watson last week. We had Kevin Kisner the week before that. He made all kinds of headlines basically saying he thinks he has no chance in any of the majors.

I watch the Super Bowl with Kiz. We get a bunch of drinks together. He's such a legend. I was actually going to say, like, Trent said that we either get like the top five or the guys who were hurt. And then like I was kind of looking at the rankings looking for like a random guy in like the 30 to 40 range and just Kisner's name popped up. That's our guy. That's our guy who's just like a regular golfer that's in the top 50. He's not going to make headlines unless he's like. on our show, talking about how horrible he's going to play this year.

I really appreciate the time that he comes on our show and grabs headlines, headlines outside of this world is when he's like, I'm just going to be terrible this year. Yep. That's great. It's awesome. Very Kevin Kiss. He, uh, so I was at the waste management on Sunday, and he finished up, uh, like, at the leaders were jumping onto the back nine or maybe on the 11th hole.

And he just texted me, like, do you have to work or do you want to go to in and out? And I was like, let's go to internet. Perfect. Sitting in his car, like this huge car trying to, like, blog the finish of the thing. But anyways. What do you think about In-N-Out? Overrated. I only had it once.

It wasn't noteworthy to me. Don't give me wrong. Good. It's a good cheeseburger. It's good. It's a good fries. It's fine. Five guys is way better.

Which is the place with animal style? In-and-out? In-and-out? That is pretty good. I like that more than five guys. See, I don't. But again, I think it's a good burger. I'm not the guy that's going to shit on it.

It's like it stinks. The fries are what people go crazy. Is that what it is the fries? And I wasn't a big fan of the fries. Really? It tastes like frozen to me. They're like hard. Yeah, I thought the fries again were fine.

Like, I didn't think they're anything special. I think experience is cool. You walk in, like the neon lights of the end and out. The whole thing is like, it's cool. I went through the drive-thru. What do you mean experience? It's a fast food place. Got it.

Yeah. I got a fucking Disney world. When I went in there, I went inside. It was a cool experience? It's a cool experience. Yeah. Nice ambiance. Well, I understand like, they're quick and they call you number and shit.

You ever been to Sonic? Yes. Well, that's like an experience. You pull up like it's old school. I can understand that. You were hilarious when Sonic came to Long Island. There was one right by my house. It was like a huge deal.

Like Sonic comes to Long Island. It's like kind of right by Borrelli's like competition. My dad's like, what was the fucking place right down the block. And we went there to go check it out. And the people that were working there like they have the rollerblade out to your car. That's an experience. And the people that I guess got the jobs like just didn't really know how to rollerblade. And I'll always remember this is like last year.

And I'm sitting in line with my girlfriend and we're sitting there just waiting for like an hour. I'm talking we waited on Sonic line for an hour. We were like one of those people. We finally get up to the front And we see these workers Are just frazzled like you wouldn't believe Like they're trying to get to each car You could tell some of them

Had no idea what the fuck they were doing And this one girl, this poor girl, came out of Sonic She's on her rollerblades And there's a little like ramp That just goes right down into the middle of the street And we're sitting there And we're like We're like this girl's just gonna like eat shit

She's holding a huge tray And she catches this like ramp And she's going a hundred miles an hour And she just flies into the middle of the street And there's a car Come in there honking And she's just like I can't stop

I can't stop Eventually she stopped There's no like She didn't wipe out There's no horrible ending But she's just doing like a big circle But she kind of just like She did like a real

Coming back around But I remember that moment being like This is where her life ends right now We're watching her go through the right And she can't stop But yeah that is an experience Sonic is an experience Sonic's a hell of an experience

What do you guys You guys ever have jack in the box? Never nope It's a big Midwestern thing and they actually have it too out in Scottsdale in the Phoenix area so I got that jack-in-the-box delicious unbelievable drunk and hungover food unbelievable It should be noted that Frankie's highlights of in and out was that they're fast and they call your number Which is just every fast food place

Yeah, it was just a cool experience I've heard of like the experience I wasn't, are you sure it wasn't just Christmas time they just had Christmas lights on? No, I guess the experience meeting like you just like went in there and saw what was going on in there It was like bumping there was like a thousand workers behind the counter They may have done something else a little special I don't know someone may be a little special I don't know someone may be like, oh, you forgot about what they do in there.

And then that's the thing I forgot about. There may have been something that caught my eye. I just can't remember. All right. Then we had David McLeague Kid on. He built Bandin Dunes, course architect. He built Gamble Sands. He built the new course Mammoth Dunes out in Sand Valley.

So we threw a little different curveball. People love that episode. Very interesting, very different look. We had Kevin Chappell on, who's one of Kisner's best friends. We watched me and kids got drunk watching the Super Bowl at Kevin Chappell's house because kids kicked him out for the week so kids could stay there. Great dude. Awesome dude.

We had him on the show. He's injured, like we mentioned. We chirped him for not getting the back fusion surgery. He got, like, the surgery that Tiger tried to get three times. It didn't work. So where did Chapel go? He has a house in Seattle, too.

So he actually just kicked him out. He's like, I want this house. He just up and went up to Seattle for the week. And Kiz brought his family in. Because remember Kiz two weeks ago just announced on this show that he was just, or a week ago, I guess it was. Or two weeks ago. That he was just going to play ways.

The Chapples just like, Kis is going. We got to go. Correct. And then I get in there. So we get in there. And Chap's wife had, like, left this long list of, like, shit that kids. had to do at the house. The kids, I get back,

kids is like folding towels and stuff. It was great. But Chapel's an awesome guy. We had him on. And then we started the year with Justin Thomas. So just giving you a little laundry list. If you haven't missed, or if you did miss any of those shows,

go check them out. We're going to bring from the gallery back on this very show. You're going to hear a couple from the galleries. Email us for Play at barstolesports.com because we want to hear your stories, your questions, your concerns, your funny incidents on the golf course. We want to bring them up on the show because we got to fill three or four hours of golf content every week on the podcast now. So figure it out. I'm injured and I would like to say I need some advice because I was playing men's league hockey last night.

This is going to sound gruesome. But I was like going back door on my right hand side of my lefty. A little hockey lingo right there. You just put me in a blender. I don't know what that. I thought you were talking about you were getting into a car. I don't know what's going on. Trent just like froze.

I don't watch hockey. We're talking puck right now, Trent. Yeah. So I'm left-handed. I'm skating down the right side of the rank towards the right goal post. Got it. And the guy, you know, I'm waiting for him to pass one across. I'm going to try it one time in the back of the net.

And he passes it, you know, it's a really bang, bang, like, quick play. So he passes it a little bit in front of me. I try to catch it, like reach out with my right skate and catch it. A lot of times you try to catch it and kick it backwards real quick. Then it's right in your slot and you can kind of get some elevation, get it over the tenderer who's sliding over a goal. Well, as that happened, I'm clearly just like overweight, out of shape, 10 years removed from playing any kind of good hockey. And I reach out to try to catch it with my skate. And as I'm like twisting backwards to try to like flick it back towards the net, my kneecap slides out of its place.

Literally slides out of its place. And then as I straighten my leg, it slides right back in. Okay. So for maybe half a second, I'm like, oh my God, I'm dead. I'm dead. I have no right leg anymore. And then it's just back in place. And immediately, you know how you can start feeling it swelling up in real time?

Yes. I was like, oh my God. So I get up and I'm like, my legs feels a little bit like numb around the knee. But I'm like, it's a men's league game. It's a playoff game. So there's like a lot of adrenaline. So it's like midway through the second beer. I'm able to play the rest of the game.

On the bench it feels a little shitty. But on the ice, I don't even really notice it. I'm skating. It's not that big of a deal. Favoring it a little bit, not a problem. Then after the game, you shower. Once you finish up with a shower, I'm like, It's getting tight.

It's getting swollen. I iced it and whatnot. I woke up this morning. I mean, I can barely walk. I came over. This is like a real injury because sometimes like I can like move my knee. I can like pop my kneecap.

Like I'm talking. It was like a side of my leg. I mean, it was bad. This is like a real, real fucking knee injury. So if you're a doctor or you know anything about this, what happened to me?

What do I do? I don't think like I have mobility and and feeling and everything. It's just a little, it's just pretty freaking swollen and stiff is where I'm at. I'm trying to webmd. I don't know if anything's like torn. I really don't think it is because I can't really, like it's not. I feel like I have everything.

But anyways, if you're a doctor or anything, you got any advice if you've ever heard of this happening, my kneecap, I guess it was dislocated for a second and then relocated. Yeah, it's sort of like when people pop their shoulder out of place, then you pop it right back in and it's pretty much okay. Knee seems a little more serious. They're watch up for that MCL. Yeah. Again, I think, like, maybe it's torn.

I don't really know. Because can't like football players, like they're like running on. on like slightly torn MCLs for like, you know, half a season and shit, and then they end up just getting the surgery. That's why I don't know. So, again, if you're a doctor, I just described to you what happened. Maybe I should get it checked out, but I would love to just say it on the podcast. It just email me.

Riggs at Parsalsworth's dogg. Tweet at me. This is what I think happened to you, Riggs. Again, it's stiff. It hurts. I came in the podcast, too, today. There's an ice pack that you made Spider-Git you. I'm icing in my knee.

It's icing right now. Right now? About golf. Yeah. I did some shadow swings in the bathroom. I think if I had to play golf right now. I could do it. That's like a good way to assess it how injured you are.

That's all I really care about. Yes. A couple shadows. This is golf season's right around the corner. It's going to be here before you know. I mean, it was... You can't have a torn MCL going into the golf season. It just can't happen.

Or if I do, I need to be prepared for it and then fix it or figure it out or whatever. You know, shoot your knee full of drugs. That's fine. Again, whatever it takes, I need to be ready for the season. True. And so that's why if you're a doctor or anything like that, you know, let me know. I got up out of my work chair today and I twist my ankle a little bit, but I I think I'm going to be okay.

You think so? Yeah. It was just I tweaked it a little bit. I've done that. I twist my ankle a lot, actually. I actually feel like my recovery, my ankle twisting recovery is some of the best on the planet. Like, I catch it mid-twist, and I kind of spin out of it so that it never really gets fully twisted. I've got cancels, so I've never really, it's never been too serious of an ankle twist.

You know what the most dangerous thing I do nowadays is? Do you think your cancles make your ankles stronger? 100%. That's nice. It's like I got elephant trucks down there. You just, nothing hurts anything. Strong. The most dangerous thing I do nowadays is sleep.

I'll wake up and my back will hurt My shoulders will hurt I'll sleep in a weird position And it'll ruin my whole week It's crazy Yeah I know what you mean You get like a neck issue You get a neck issue

Let's get into some headlines. We got a couple of different players I want to go through, and then we'll jump into from the gallery. Sergio Garcia, everybody knows about what happened. We talked about it at length last show. We put a couple things out there. He had this psycho outburst in the bunker, which was the video came out after it was made very clear that he destroyed five greens in a row on the golf course over in Saudi Arabia by dragging his spikes, ripped up the green. What we have here is he gives this, he hits his bunker shot, which turned out to be his second bunker shot. Yeah, I saw someone.

So he hit one from the back of the bunker, kind of chunked it into the middle of the bunker. And then the one that we all saw was his second attempt out of the bunker. He hits an okay, mediocre shot up to what looks like it was inside 10 feet. So it wasn't that bad. Tom Brady actually commented on the barstool Instagram. Did you guys see this? No. No.

We put that Sergio clip up and Tom Brady commented. It looked like a pretty good shot to me or something like that. What? Yeah, all the time. I just saw it. I said somebody tweeted out of me. I retweeted it. Tom Brady.

Just one of the Super Bowl in case you missed it. So even TB12 thought it was not that bad of shot. Sergio loses his fucking mind. Swings the club not once, not twice, but three times through the sand, like banging the sand. It does like a forward, backward, forward thing. It's an incredible clip. And then does a wild shovel scoop, which again, we broke down in detail last time. However, he also then after that yells a bunch of gibberish in Spanish.

We have the translation. The translation is, and apparently, and this is, I'm just trusting this random source in the internet, who apparently knows Spanish, the mother who gave birth to you, fucking shit. Fuck. Fucking caddies who don't know how to rake bunkers

stick it up your arse the whole lot of you. I mean, reading this, the way you sent it to us in an email is one of the funniest

things I've ever seen. The mother who gave birth to you. That's my favorite part. I mean, it sounds like Macbeth. I mean, that has, the whole thing.

It does. I'm an English major when I read Shakespeare. Stick it up your arse, the whole lot of you. It does sound like Macbeth. This is Macbeth.

I mean, there's a strand of Macbeth or maybe a poetic version of Game of Thrones. something like that, but this, the whole lot of you, I mean. It almost feels like there's something lost in translation because the mother who gave birth to you doesn't seem that mean, but it also could be the meanest thing. The mother who gave birth to you has to just be a translation from a motherfucker.

That's exactly what I was going to say. It has to be motherfucker. You motherfucker. Which you would think, however, this outlet, like they wrote fucking shit, fuck fucking caddies, but then they just didn't figure out that he said motherfucker. Here's my question. When you ever you see the word arse, what is that about? What is Arce? I always think of William Wallace's buddy.

The guy who's from like the island, and he always, he has one big moment, and I just remember he says something like, stick it up your arse or something like that. And whenever I see Ars, I always think of this guy. But Ars is just,

is what? In Braveheart, right? Yeah, it's ass. In what? And what? Like, just like old English? Sure. Yeah, I think it was before, I think the arse was before people started saying ass all the time, yeah.

Right? Stick it up your arse I almost like arse more I always feel so weird when I hear that Arce Stick it up your arse It's like churching it up Like you do with all your Italian bullshit

The whole lot of you Italian bullshit It's churching up ass That sounded a little When I hear ars I think of a pirate Stick it up your arse Oh yeah Stick it up your arse

The whole lot of you That's pretty good Is the whole lot of you an Italian thing No I thought that's what you said Yeah it's an old English thing I think of Harry Potter in the movie when they're first on the Hogwarts Express

and Ron's like trying to figure how much he can buy and Harry Potter comes up with all his with all of his like gold and he's like, we'll take the whole lot. Yes. We'll take the lot. Yep. We'll take the lot.

We'll take the lot. The whole lot of you. The whole lot of you. People are weird, man. The mother who gave birth to you. The mother who gave birth to you. I am absolutely going to say that on the golf course now. I'm going to skull fuck a wedge across the green.

I'm like, the mother who gave birth to you. I like that. It's just going to come off. So weird to whoever I'm playing with. I think it's an unreal phrase we should start bringing to the golf course. I want to do it when I'm playing with strangers. Like, I'm going to be a single with three older guys. They're going to see me in the bunker.

I'm going to absolutely missile one across the fair across the green. I'm just going to scream, the mother who gave birth to you, the whole lot of you. And they're going to be like, we need to get this guy off the golf course right now before he absolutely goes murder suicide on the whole golf course. I think yelling that is as fast as you can. The mother who gave birth to you. The mother who gave birth to you. Fucking caddies who don't know how to rake. He's so angry.

Yeah, I mean, I knew Sergio was an angry guy, but he, like you said, he might be murdered suicide. Yeah. So we've also got Brooks Kebka. Brooks Kevka all of a sudden he was dead silent for like five years and now he has just decided to unleash the heat. Maybe he listened to our podcast. Where we were like, you just got to be better at like, you know, talking. Well, it was weird because he won obviously three major championships, two U.S. opens. He, like, declined the mediator's after he won the U.S. opens.

He was like vanilla pudding, which is as vanilla pudding as you can get. just boring to watch, boring to root for, because he just doesn't bring much to the table. Now all of a sudden, I think maybe his agent kind of or his team must have said, hey, dude, everybody thinks you're boring. Hey, dude, we got to make some money here. Yeah. Like, this is like you're going on a run in which, like, we can market you. And he just went to the other extreme.

And he's just bringing the heat everywhere. It seems like they slipped him a couple of drinks the way he's talking about some of these players. He said, on Sergio, he said, oh, it's frustrating as a player to see to act like that, to disrespect everybody, to act like a child out there is not cool. It's not setting a good example and it's not cool to us, showing us no respect or anybody else. That's just Sergio acting like a child. It's unfortunate that you got to do that and to complain. Everybody's got to play the same golf course.

I didn't play very good, but you didn't really see anybody else doing that. You're 40 years old. You've got to grow up eventually. That's a big line there. You're 40 years old. I'm a man. I can't believe Brooks Keppka said these things. There's multiple chirps in that.

I didn't play very well, Brooks. That's what you're supposed to say there. I didn't play. I mean, Brooke, come on. We're talking about, you know, Brooks. I know. That's what people on Twitter. Last night I tweeted during an Islanding game that he was off sides.

And everyone was like, well, it's actually offside. There's no plural to all. Suck it. I bet that drove you fucking crazy. I wanted to throw up on the podcast. I wanted to throw my phone across a mountain. I want that I wanted to go to a mountain. I wanted to climb it for a couple of weeks.

I wanted to sleep on the side, like in those fucking documentaries. Oh, yeah. Those little tents that you put aside of the mountain? What's that, what's that document? A documentary on Netflix that Nate's cousin is in or something like that. I don't know, but I think Nate tells me about it every single day. I think it's called May Root. It's actually an unbelievable fucking documentary.

And I highly recommend anyone to watch it. Get yourself in front of a nice HD TV, like a big screen, turn all the lights off and watch these guys hang off the side of a mountain. Is it called May Root? Mayroo. Yeah, I shouldn't be saying the T. It's absolutely Mayuru. That was very unfrake-Brily, Italian. You can't be saying Mayrude.

That's like saying Merlot. Right. Peanut Grigio. You can't say May Rue. May Rue. Anyway, I want to go up to May Rue. I want to sleep for weeks. I want to get like a stroke as I go up, and now I'm giving stuff away from

Meru. But you get to the top, and I want to toss my phone off of it. I just want to watch it just crumble to the ground when someone says. It's actually, actually the correct way to say that is offside. I didn't play very good, Brooks Kepka says, which clearly brought up some demons from Frankie from Twitter last time. Brooks Kevka also said on Bryson D. Shambot, who we obviously had on the show a couple months ago.

If you haven't listened to that episode, go listen. He buries Frankie. Guys are already so slow. It's kind of embarrassing. I just understand how it takes a minute and 20 seconds, a minute and 15 to hit a golf ball. It's not that hard. It's always between two clubs. There's a miss short.

There's a miss long. It really drives me nuts, especially when it's a long hitter, because you know you've got two other guys or at least one guy that's hitting before you. So you can do all your calculations. you should have your numbers. He absolutely was sitting at a bar when he was doing this. This is like guys talking, talking shit about their friends. Right.

I'm not going to be mean to him about it because this is what we wanted. We wanted him to be opinionated. But this is not the direction I thought he was going to go. He's just kind of going to slow. It's embarrassing. This is like the golfers and the Tupac's hit him up. He's just like, throw him a name. And he's like, oh, this guy, he's a cry baby.

And he's slow. It's amazing. Brooks just went full ham extreme the other way. Yeah. He just kind of nuking everybody. I mean, I'm on golf. I'm on Golf Channel's homepage, and two of the first three stories are just different Brooks Kepka quotes. He also said that Patrick Reed sent out a group text and apologized for the Ryder Cup shenanigans.

Which I'm okay with. I think people probably going to shit on Patrick Green for just about anything. But I'd much rather have a text than a phone call. Let me tell you this. The more and more people that I talk to, the more and more people who say Patrick Reed is actually a very nice guy and that he's well-liked. I think we got to the bottom of that issue a few different times. I think there's a certain someone who maybe skews Patrick Reed's image in a negative way. This person could be he or she, I don't know, maybe runs his social media accounts and makes him look like a complete douchebag.

I don't know. But you're right. I like that Patrick Reed sent out that text. That's all you can do at that moment. Apologize for whatever. Rory also made some comments on our guy Bryson. I think we can all do our part to speed up pace of play. I would definitely be more in the Brooks Kepka camp there in terms of if they give us a minute to hit a golf shot,

That's long enough for us to decide what to do. I think it's a mental thing as well. Brooks Kepka has made so many comments about this now that he is the camp. People are going to go to his own camp. You've got to decide whether you're in the Bryson camp or the Brooks Kepka camp. I'm going to pay the play. I'm going to pay the Kepka camp. Imagine how fucking far we've come in six months that Brooks Kepka has his own opinion camp.

The Brooks Kepka camp six months ago was like the most boring camp of all time. It was like all the kids that had no friends and the family needed their kids to be more social. And like we're going to send you this camp. and when you got there, everyone just sat in the corner. I mean, it was the loser anti-social camp. And Rory, the most outspoken player maybe we have on the PJ Tour, is like, I'm in Brooks camp. I'm with him. I just agree with him now.

Roy's taking his opinions and depositing them into Brooks Kepka's camp of opinion. You think Brooks sent out a group text like, I'm in charge now to just everyone? Like, I don't know what I've been doing the past like couple years, but it's my time. Yeah, I do. He certainly has the cachet and the resume to be able to say whatever he wants, and now I guess he's taking advantage of it. Guy wins a couple majors and he just got his own opinion camp. I'm in. Again, we've shit on him before for being vanilla.

What did you say? Vanilla pudding. Vanilla pudding. He's not vanilla pudding anymore. You think of anything more vanilla pudding than vanilla pudding? I was thinking, how are you thinking of tapioca? That's got too crazy of a name, though. Yeah, you're right.

Tapioca. Like, something cool can be tapioca. Yeah, I guess so. Like, someone, like, agile on their feet is tapioca. Yeah, tapioca, that name screams. I could picture someone, like, tiptoeing a, like, a refrigerator and, like, stealing something that shouldn't be getting, like, late at night. Like, your tapioca.

Vanilla pudding is, like, someone that's, like, like slugging out of a chair, like vanilla pudding. I think vanilla pudding is as vanilla pudding as it gets. I don't think there's one thing in the world that's more vanilla pudding than vanilla pudding. Hard to disagree. To any listeners that have something that's more vanilla pudding than vanilla pudding, please tweet at it. Yeah, I bet somebody will come out with some good ones. And I'll probably laugh very hard.

Yeah, me too. Rockomediate says he drank while playing. He was a habitual alcoholic. Wow. He said he quit drinking in, I think, somewhere around the fall, maybe of 2017. but he said, I couldn't tell you since last October, years before that, a day that I had went without having a drink. I knew at the time that eventually it was going to get me. Absolutely, I have played while drinking because it was just normal for me.

It was just a daily ritual, let's say. You can put it in a lot of places, a lot of places, but was it every time? No, but most of the time when the pain came in, it wasn't not going to happen. And then he also sympathized with our guy Tiger when he got his DUI. So when that happened, I went, mm-hmm, yeah, I just didn't get it. get caught. But when it comes to that type of pain, you'll basically do whatever it takes to be able to go, oh, that feels better. So he was saying, like, I get it. The only difference is I just didn't really get caught. So some revealing comments from Rocco, Rocco's always been an

incredibly transparent guy and just an unbelievably lovable guy. So I just thought that was kind of interesting. The Sunday scary is. Do you ever get that creeping feeling of dread and anxiety as Sunday comes to a close and you face the coming doom of the work week? I got to say the way that they phrase that is just the most dreaded way to think about the Sunday scaries and put it into word form sounds just terrifying and I bet there are a lot of this last week Super Bowl a lot of people had this this past Monday is the best day for the Sunday scaries you know that sounds crazy right but you're all doing it at Super Bowl Sunday so really Sunday scary is applied to the day after the Super Bowl which was a Monday CBD it's hot in the streets right now okay it's hot everywhere right now there are these

gummies. They don't have the THC. So, you get all the benefits from THC, but without the hot. What this means is it's legal to consume in your state. You can take it at school. You can take it at work. You can take it wherever else you want without any worry. Reduces stress, anxiety, all that good stuff. A very convenient and delicious way to get your daily dose of CBD. We've had people, I've read a couple of them, been like, man, these kind of changed my entire life. Again, from anxiety to stress to if you're feeling it a little bit after a rough weekend or a rough night. this is the best way to handle it.

Just a couple here that we're going to get to and then we'll hit you with Wesley Brian. First one is Connor. Connors sent a very funny email. It's been a long time since we got one of these. I got the butter knives. All thanks to Frankie Borelli. I've never had this problem before, ever. I went out to the first round of the year, striped a driver at 285 down the middle of the fairway, grabbed my sand wedge, lined up the shot, and as I looked down at the ball, all I could think was Frankie Butternives.

I then skull-fucked my ball 30 yards past the green, then skull-fucked it back to the fairway, 20 yards off the green in muddy, slow conditions. I officially decided to end my misery and put the ball. however many times it took as long as I didn't have to get out another wedge. I scull-fucked more wedges that round than all of last year combined. I now fear the worst for my upcoming season. Thank you, Frank Ebrelli, in advance for all of the money I am going to lose this year. It's tough to read.

It's tough to see this happening so early in the season, you know, and I know that everyone's going to use me as a crutch. They're going to use me as a scapegoat for their skullfuckeries and their butternives. It is contagious. It is contagious. The more we talk about it. But you know what? Like, we're all going to get through this together.

I don't want this to be a negative thing. I think if you get the skull fucks to butter knives, you shouldn't be so angry at me as opposed to like, all right, let's all work on this together. This is an issue. This is a problem. It's because the narrative is negative right now. Very negative.

It's like you gave this to me. Right. It's like you gave them an STD. Correct. Meanwhile. It is. You fucked them with a skull fuck virus. Correct.

Through their ears. But they're acting like I was being an asshole and, like, withholding that information. I've told you guys. from the beginning that this has been a problem. Right. You know, you listen to this podcast, you know next episode, you may hear the word but it in it. But do you think,

are we all in agreement that more people have the wedge skulls because of listening to the show than they did previously? I think you don't think about it until it happened. I think we put a name to it. I think people had it. I don't know if the number is essentially gone up,

but I think we put a name to it. It's like we discovered a thing that people have had before, but the word skull fuck is so good that now they realize that they have that. No, I disagree. This guy was like, I've never had this problem before. Now I thought about Frankie and I'm just skull fucking involved in. I think once you do it once, then it's like in your head.

I don't think you're stepping up to the shop for your first time ever, like, since listening to the podcast and just like, and thinking like, oh my God, I hope I don't butter knife this. I think the one time it happens, you're like, oh, fuck, I've been infected. And then from there on out, every time you know. now take a wedge. It's a confirmation bias. Correct. I mean, I think less people are shaking it off. Correct. Right. They can't. I can't. Oh, like, that was weird. I'm fully infected.

Every time I hold a wedge in my hand, I start, like, laughing. No, we know. Yeah, once we put a label on it, you're right. People can't shake it now because they can wrap their mind around what it is. You know, bad it's gotten for me is when I do hit a good shot, people talk to me like I'm like a child. Like, oh, Frankie, that was pretty good. Like, don't fucking talk to me like that.

I got a problem over here. You just said, like, the most media. yoker chip of all time. And they're like, I just got it on the green, Frank. I got it on the green once. Like when like a three-year-old's allowed to score for free and like a pick-up hockey game, they just let him skate down and shove one into the net. I have a video.

Way to go, Timmy. I have a video that I put on my face. That was awesome. Towards the end of the last season, when I put a video up, I like actually hit one pretty well and I like tag Voki wedges in it. And like I got so many messages like, way to go, man. Like titleist responded like, we're so proud of you. And like when you look at the video, it wasn't even.

that good. It was okay. I kind of like hit it kind of hard and I was like, I don't know, seven or eight feet away from the hole. I like missed the putt like very easily. The bar is incredibly low for Frankie. I made a bogey. I also, I put a follow-up question here, Frankie. How's your plant doing? Oh, the, uh, yeah, it's, it's okay. I haven't wanted it since we last talked about. It's still a lot.

I feel like it can't be doing well. It's has to drink, Frankie. See, we were gone for fucking like eight or nine days. You couldn't tell a roommate? Hey, water my plant? No, you know what I've done? I, uh, I locked my door. I don't know if this is, this is my first time living with people, but I locked the door to my room when I left.

That's, do you trust the people. That's weird. I do. I trust them. I mean, they're all my best friends. Although, I mean, I think it's weird. I could understand justifying, like, if they have people over a life. Correct.

Yeah. Oh, then yeah. I just, like, didn't want, I don't know. It's like, that's, like, my domain. That's, like, where I go back to relax. I don't want, like, my buddy Steve, like, sweating in it, like, because he's, like, wasted and, like, doesn't want to go home. She does a ricochet shout out Steve.

Steve just got roasted. I just don't want... Steve walks around, sweating on everything all the time. I don't know. I just don't... You know what I mean? Like, I don't want to, like, come home from a long trip. Like, I made my bed.

I did my laundry. Steve morbidly obese? I don't understand. Oh, man. Steve, we love you, pal. Steve just got dominions. Riggs and I don't even know you, but we love you. Like, you just, you just walk around with three towels.

Steve just sweats so bad. I just don't want Steve, like, laying in my bed. bed sweating in it and then like me not know it so yeah I locked my door no one could get in so they couldn't watch they couldn't they couldn't they couldn't wash that thing wash water it I don't know you water water okay it water it's good okay water it water it uh and then the other from the gallery that we have uh john this is a this a case as old as time tail's old as time he lost a friend to a girlfriend John lost his friend Rob he says absolutely love the show one of your thank you very much one of your advice on a

situation me and three of my buddies are in. We've been golfing together for a while. We always play two versus two team matches and it's very competitive. Last summer, Rob, normally around a mid-70s player, got a girlfriend and he fucking disappeared off the face of the earth. He hardly plays golf of this anymore. He hardly even responds to our texts. That's fucked up, Rob. Me and the other guys are frustrated as hell and don't know what to do. The three of us still play often without Rob, but it's not as fun without the 2V2 team aspect. Fact. On the rare occasion, Rob does play with us. He plays like complete dog shit, shoots So like 90 because he doesn't practice or give a shit anymore.

And he's texting the girlfriend the entire round, making the matches not competitive at all. We've called Rob out for it. We don't really know what else to do. What are your guys' thoughts? So Rob, if you're listening, and I've long said this, that any, any, I'm a single guy, but any girl that I meet any prospective relationship I'm going to have, I make it very clear that I go off in the summer and I ski in the winter. I say that all time. That's what you do.

That's just what I do. Now, that's the whitest moment on this podcast. That's, look, that's just, is what it is. Hey, listen, perspective women out there. I golf in the summer. I don't. I ski in the winter. It might sound douchy.

That's what I do. It just is what it is. I get hurt playing men's league hockey. That's what I do. That's true, too. And you make that very clear. Now, outside of that, I, you know, I finish work. I vacation in Saratoga Springs.

And every single year, I go to the Dave Matthews concert on the lawn. I feel like, now you're just describing Brett. I am. I sing along. I do it all, okay? My dad owns a beer company. I don't know if that's true. I listen to hip-hop.

You ever hear of McElmore? I know what it raps about. I'll even pop my collar from time to time. Point being, you have to make it very clear that these are things that you like to do and that your relationship, there's plenty of other free time. There's plenty of other times where you can commit all the time to him or her or you're snimmied together or whatever but you need to make it very clear if you are a golfer that is what you like to do that is what makes you happy that is when you get outside which is

beautiful it's sunny outside even when the conditions are trying it's nice to be out there and feel like you got a little bit of adversity you're battling you spend some time with the buddies it's just your escape and you have to have that in order to be yourself rob failed at that and so fuck rob rob rob screwed his buddy over there you say you were coming out of from rob's angle where it's like you got to make it clear that you like golf if you're you're not you're you're the other friends, though, you just got to get a new friend, or you got to try and sabotage their relationship somehow, or, you know. Correct.

And he clearly, you, like, Rob doesn't like golf as much as he likes this particular young lady. So he's lost. It's a lost golf. You know? That's my take on that. Yeah, I wonder what you could do to help sabotage Rob's relationship. I kind of like that angle.

But Rob is choosing this, though. That's why you have to sabotage it for him. Like, you don't sabotage it with him. It's almost like Rob doesn't see it. So he doesn't realize the damage that he's doing. What if you accidentally send a text, accidentally, in air quotes, to Rob's girlfriend about golf? Like, man, we haven't seen Robb. Like, you think Rob's ever going to fucking play with this again?

No, like, but you thought it was to Rob. Accidentally put her number. Oh, got it, got, got, got, got, got to say. Like, hey, Rob, are you ever going to play with this again? Yeah, right. Yeah, accidentally put her on, like, a group chat. Like, no, like, even, I would get more malicious than that. I would be like, uh, ha, Rob, those comments you were making about what's her name the other day?

You're so right. You got to sneak out and play golf. with the boys. Oh. Just sabotage. That's pure sabotage. That's not even subtle. It's just an option.

I'm not saying you have to do it. That made me feel like I got scared thinking that could happen to me one day. I don't ever want to deal with that. What comments? Yeah. What? Because the word comments could mean fucking anything. Oh, yeah.

Like, what did you say? I don't know. But that's what you got to do. If you're really missing this guy, sabotage your relationship, you know? That's one way to go. Sometimes that's what a real friend would do. And again, people have to remember that, John here wrote that they've tried talking to him.

They've brought it up. So we were trying to go to extreme measures. What you can do to get robbed back? I don't, you know, I think what movie is that where they kidnap the girlfriend? Saving Silverman. That's too far. I would say that's definitely too far. It's illegal.

It's wrong. Sabotage, probably too far. But if you do it the right way, you might get robbed back. Is that a good movie? Saving Silverman is one of the most underrated movies of all time. I've never seen it. It's very funny. Will you please?

You got to watch it. Who's in it? Zon, who was just in the office the other day. Who is... That's enough for me. Jason Bigg, so that's right. He's the main... It's a great movie.

You should see it. I don't get to talk about saving Silverman enough, so I really appreciate this opportunity. I haven't talked about saving Silverman a long time. Very good movie, but they basically try this to a degree. They do. They pretend that her car rolled off of a cliff and she died, but they just kidnapped her and put her in the garage.

Yeah. Sounds like a dark movie, but it's a comic. It's probably a great movie. It's funny. But he's got 18% rotten tomatoes. See, those people can't be trusted. I think a tiny boy has like 20. Right.

I would say anything, like Rotten Tomatoes, anything that's in the middle, 88% users. Anything that's in the middle in Rotten Tomatoes is bad news. Anything that's extreme one way or the other is a good movie. Well, Rotten Tomatoes doesn't get comedies right. They think everything has to be like a masterpiece like the Godfather. They just don't seem to understand comedies. I agree. For whatever reason.

It's a bunch of Jeff D. Lowe's. Yeah. He didn't like. What's the movie that he didn't like? I can't remember. It's a new one with the... No, he doesn't like... Fuck, I can't think he's.

But whatever. C-saving Silverman. Everybody, if you haven't seen it, although I feel like most people have, other than Frankie, definitely watch that movie. Okay. All right, next up, we got Wesley Brian. He's a winner on tour. We haven't had him on for a couple of years, so it's going to be nice to catch up with him. Enjoy this chat.

We were financially illiterate. We were kind of just illiterate in a lot of things. Certainly financially, though. Definitely financially. Before this, I don't know what was going on. But we were able to comprehend that consolidating multiple credit card payments down to one payment at a lower rate is just better. So we did it, and we've been incredibly happy ever since.

Next up, we are joined for the second time, although it's been a long time, which we will get to. PGA Tour winner, trick shot artist. Wesley Brian, what is up, Wesley? Man, you know, I am just walking out of a nice physical therapy session, and, man, life is good. So you've been sending me, I saw a picture.

I saw you posted some pictures of you in a sling. So that sounds like life is as good as it gets. Well, I mean, if you're into watching a little, she's now seven week old, now grow up, sit all day on the couch in a sling and troll people on Twitter and Instagram all day. If that is a life that sounds appetizing to you, then by all means, that's exactly what I'm doing right now. I've got to be honest, I think a huge portion of the population spend. their weekends doing just that. Well, that's my weekday, too, now. That's just all days.

We were saying before that our sweet spot for guests right now are guys that are guys that are injured because you guys just have nothing else to do. I should probably just start a podcast and try and compete with you guys. Well, yeah, I was going to say we're not looking for competitors. I thought about it. Why not just join the force? I mean, if we become enemies, things are going to change dramatically. I mean, some competitors can be friends.

Like, I compete with guys like, let's say, John Rom and Ricky Powell and Justin Thomas weekend and week out, but we're still friends. I feel like we'd play too dirty. You know, podcast game's a little rougher than the PGA tour game. You obviously don't know Ricky too well. He looks like a pretty boy on the outside, but. No, I'm just kidding. Feel free to dish on right now.

Go on. Do it. I dare you. No, I'm not going to it. If you can find a mean thing to say about Ricky, then you're probably in the minority. I don't think he's really said anything mean to anybody ever. What did you think of Ricky's finished last weekend of the waste management?

You know, it's hard to say that it was like an ultimate collapse because the finish was incredible. He showed that he put a lot of critics to the wayside that said that he can't finish golf tournament. because it was an impressive finish. But what led up to it was not so impressive. But if you look at, I mean, I think maybe three or four under, three under was maybe the low score of the day.

So it's not like it was a day that golfers were having their way on the golf course. And he was just out there spewing his brains. But, man, I thought it was a pretty good tournament, personally. It was very fun to watch. It was better than the Super Bowl. We were talking earlier just about it was weird. I think on Tuesday show, we talked about how it's weird to see a guy who,

by all accounts is collapsing, yet he still found a way to make a couple of birdies and win by a couple shots. I feel you never see that. Well, I'll tell you the nice part is when you're really spewing, and I know 16 is intimidating with some water, and you see some big numbers there, and 16 is one of the loudest holes in golf. And in 17, 18, there's water. It's one of those on paper. It doesn't look like it would be the easiest stretch. Trying to close the golf course, I would say that's probably one of the friendliest stretches of holes to try and close a golf tournament out on if you're a guy that can fly at 300 yards in the air.

Which helps. Right. So 17 becomes if you hit it in the water, you get up and down and make par. 16 is, shoot, it's not more than a 9 iron or 8 iron for a par 3. 15 is a reachable par 5. and 18, you've got literally an entire county to the right that you can hit it up there and still get it on the green. So I feel like especially in the last couple of years, we've seen how difficult it is weekend and week out for guys to close, for guys to have a 54-hole lead and get the thing done.

As a winner on the PGA tour, you won the 2017 RBC Heritage. What changes? What makes it so hard to close? and win a golf term? I mean, some guys are just affected by the moment. I think that's the biggest separating factor of guys that win a lot of tournament versus the guys that are up on a lot of leaderboard and don't necessarily close out a lot. And to be quite fair, that's kind of the category that Ricky was in it.

But, I mean, you just know that he ran into a lot. wasn't losing golf tournaments to a lot of guys that were just little flashes in the pan. He was losing golf tournaments to some of the best players to ever play the game and definitely the best of our generation. So, I mean, the moment is sometimes a little too big for guys that are just getting out on tour or people that hadn't been in that spot a lot. And some of it is just the golf courses we play weekend and week out are just freaking hard. And if you have to make a couple of birds,

He's coming down the stretch. It's not like it's the easiest thing to do in the world and the golf courses that we're playing. So we talked about it a little bit off the top. You're going through a little bit of an injury. Let's explain what happened. A little bit of an injury. I just got done with someone cutting the open and fixing a torn body part.

Like I said, you got a little bit of a bruise. You got a little bit of a bruise. I filed for a major medical. Well, now, Rick. Don't talk about my injuries as little. Well, Riggs popped out his knee last night in Men's League. My kneecap. I dislocated my kneecap.

And I held a camera for like three and a half hours the day. You're not a professional athlete, though. You don't understand the rigors of what it takes to come back and not be able to do anything and then having to perform at a very high level weekend and week out. Well, I held a camera for like three and a half hours at an event, and I'm like, I feel like I'm going to die. So I think I know exactly what you're talking about. Dude, I sat and I watched one of the most boring football games of all time at the Super Bowl in a swing.

and on the ride home, my shoulder was on fire just from sitting there. Does some icy hot on it. You'll be all right. So let's talk about what happened, you know, what led to, when did the injury start to sort of spring up? What led it to get so bad? Ultimately, what led to get surgery? Walk us through the whole thing. So, I mean, as a golfer, you make a very unique motion, hundreds, if not thousands of times a week or a day.

and so I mean every golfer if you get down to it is playing just with a little bit of nagging pain here and there and I just had a lot of nagging pains and then the shoulder just kept bothering me and kept bothering me in this past fall the level of pain just started increasing and increasing and increasing and I got tired of it so I had to withdraw at sea island and then went to the doctor got the MRI torn labrum the doc said surgery is the only option to fix it could do PT but it won't really get any better and so then I made the decision to have the surgery done and now here we are living living my best life so what uh what's your what's your what's your plan you have any timetable you have any tournament that you're targeting obviously i'll the john deer is one of my

favorite tournaments of all time. Great tournament. So, I mean, it's a great tournament. And that would be one that I would target and love to get back, but really it just comes down to whenever I feel like, one, I'm healthy enough. They say four to six months going through the bag and swinging all that stuff, but then being able to actually get like a full workload in to properly prepare. And obviously, I'll have some rehab.

starts that I could use worldwide or on web.com tour or whatever. So I really don't know the timetable. My best guess would be two weeks before an event. I'll probably put something out there and say this is my target of return. But I just wanted to give a plug to the John Deere Classic and say that it's my favorite tournament. Smart. That's a smart move. Trent Daddy's Iowa guy.

Yeah, it's about 45 minutes from where I grew up. So that tournament is near and dear to my heart. And, I mean, yes, Claire Peterson is probably one of the best tournament directors that we have, and he does such a great job. Well, hopefully we see you out there. That would be great. And he's phenomenal champions like Bryson DeShambos. Oh, yeah, Bryson. You know, he's been all over the news lately.

He's been all over the news for a couple months, I feel like. Right. And what a lot of people don't realize is that we got out on the PGA tours at the same time. and I won a PJ tour event for him. So take that one, Bryson. Wow. Love that. Nice.

It's nice to have one up on them there. You know, I feel like. I know. And that's something that's pretty solid in the history books. Like, that's never going to get changed. People always talk about that. They talk about how Wesley won before Bryson. Right.

Exactly. And if they don't, they're just, they're not talking about it enough. Speaking of which, me and Bryce, we had a conversation at the Traveler Championship last year. and I think this was right, obviously it's right before the playoffs, and I was talking to him, and I was like, so with all this stuff that you got going on, like, do you feel like you're just going to be one of the best ball strikers of all time when it's all said and done?

And he had one word answer for me, and he said, yep. That's my Bryson. By all means, has he absolutely stuck to his one word. He's been on a tear. What do you think about a couple of plays? players have been kind of chirping them lately because of some of these clips that have showcased his chit-chatter with his caddy. It takes them a minute and a half occasionally to hit some of these shots as they go through

all the calculations. Brooks Kevka, Roy McElroy, Bose kind of chirped him. One of them I think Brooks said it's embarrassing. What do you think of those guys' comments on Bryson's whole process? And if you're trying to get something dirty out of me, I mean, I'm not going to be one that's ever going to chirp anything negative at any of my peers, just because I respect. the heck out of anybody that can play this game for a living. So do I think some of it is a little bit of a show?

Absolutely. Is he brilliant? Probably. I mean, I don't know. I've never seen him take like a math test or a physics test, but I'm sure he would pass it. And I don't know with all those calculations, like really in the grand scheme of things,

help produce a better golf shot. But, man, whatever he's doing, and I would tell him to keep doing it because he's winning a lot of golf tournaments. I feel like maybe some of it just makes him feel like he's more prepared, even if it doesn't really matter. Well, the thing is, like, I know Bryson's a smart guy, and he's talking over all this stuff with Tim. I bet Tim had to learn a new language.

Like, this is all new for him. So imagine how much better he's going to be in a few years once he starts getting this system dialed in. and if they stay together for a long time, which they probably will, if not, then, man, he might be one of the guys that's going to be one of the more sought after caddies if he goes into the open market. That's a good point. I mean, Bryson just starts speaking, like, in-depth physics with you. You kind of need to know what the hell you're talking about. Right, exactly.

I just wondered if he, like, is going back and actually, like, studying just random stuff just in case there's like a pop quiz mid-round. Imagine Bryson makes him read like two books a week. Shoot. Well, Bryson was writing a physics book, so I don't think reading books is appropriate. I think you actually need to start writing them. I mean, that's going to be a must read for me. You won't be able to understand a God-Dame thing. The God-Dame thing. First page will be like, unfortunately, this won't apply to all of your brains because I'm at a higher level.

So just put the book down now or hand it to someone that's on my level. Frankie has a little butt-hurt issue with Bryce. because Bryson came on this show and made fun of him. You act like I don't see it on social media. I know. So I had to somehow sneak Bryson into the conversation. It divides the room very quickly. To troll Frankie, because I spend a lot of time trolling on Instagram,

but not very often you get a chance to troll in real life. And that's what I'm using. I'm going to say, there's way too many Bryson. We're like, we're not talking to Bryson right now. Like, why are we saying the name so much? Suck it, Frankie. So what have you been doing to kill the time, past the time, you pick up any new shows, any video games, what else you've been doing?

So, I mean, I read a lot. I spend the better part of my morning reading some books passing the time there. What do you read about? I mean, I've got a couple of Bible studies that I'm in, and I read some Christian books. and then I spend the latter part of my morning watching a child eat, poop and cry and sleep. And then I spend my evenings. I've watched just about every single minute of NBA basketball since surgery.

And then late night call-a-d-sessions usually. A COD guy. What do you got, any thoughts on the Anthony Davis trade? what's going to happen? Well, the Pelicans, they really need to get their act together if they want to get any value out of them. The last report, they were asking for six to eight draft picks and an entire starting five from the Lakers. I think that's a little too bold of an act for one player. Shoot or shoot.

Man, that Pelicans organization, they're sitting on a potential disaster if they don't, tread lightly. The new year means new resolutions, and we've got one you are working on twice every day.

Do you watch a lot of golf? More than I want to watch. I don't love watching golf on TV, but I love watching if I have buddies that are on the leaderboard. Really, these last couple weeks, if you look at Tori Pines and Phoenix, the first pages of these leaderboards have been unbelievable on the weekends.

They've been really good. It's been a hot start to the year. How excited are you for Hosung Choi's PGA tour debut this week? I mean, if you follow me on Twitter, you would know that I'm extremely excited about it. And I started the petition to get him in a featured group. And I checked this morning for the T-Times, and he's in the same group as Aaron Rogers for the first three rounds. So the writing was on the wall there. But, yeah, I'm going to watch every single minute that they televised.

as a post-hung-choi. What do you think of his game? Man, I got no idea. It looks like he's one of those guys that could just hustle the crap out of you at a local Muti. Oh, yeah. I mean, goodness. He could say he was a four handicapper and everybody would believe him.

He, uh, if he showed up on the range with those antics and he was like, I'm going to play, oh, I play off of like an eight. I think almost anybody would take it and they would just get their ass kicked. Right. I mean, it is unbelievable. I mean, I would, golly, it's something is so, I can't even put words to it. You're speechless. What does?

Have you ever tried it? Well, no, when he got popular, I had a shoulder that wouldn't cooperate with my golf swing, much less trying to do all of that. Imagine if you came back and you just swung like the fisherman? The fisherman. I don't know if that nickname should stick. We get him a better one. There's so many better options out there.

Y'all need to start one. That's not a bad idea. He is playing for anybody who wasn't aware. He's playing the Pebble Beach AT&T Pro Am this week, making his PGA tour debut. He got, I believe, a sponsor's exemption. And he's awesome. We've talked about him on this show a lot so people should check it out. Who is one player you've played with who just wowed you the way that they hit the golf ball?

John Rom, hands down. Just pounded? Well, yes. It's really, it just sounds different. And there's very few guys that I feel like have like that complete package to where when I'm out there playing around the golf and I could pick any one particular person to hit a shot for me. You're like, you know, I probably would want John Ron to hit this shot for me. Even if it's a chip or a thing.

I feel like I got a pretty good short game, but I'll be like, you know what? I wouldn't have a problem if John wanted to sub in and hit the shot for me. But, I mean, he crunches the ball pretty nicely. He hits it hard. Thoughts on his mental game. I was going to say. His mental game. Well, you just don't, if he's going to hit a shot for you and it goes incorrectly,

then, like, you have to also deal with him like helicoptering a club into like the, into the far. He's got a little fire to him. He's got a little fire to him. Oh, big time. I mean, It kind of runs in that European, maybe Spanish culture, where your emotions a little more on your sleeve. And I'm completely fine with it.

Do I think that it affects him the next shot? Absolutely not. And that's why I'm completely okay with it. Yeah, there's something in the water with those Spanish golfers, it seems like. Yeah, and if you want to comment from me on Sergio, I want the record to show that I love Sergio. Good guy? Yes, great guy.

and his antics in the bunker and supposedly on the greens, there's no footage of the demolition of the Greens. But, I mean, it just looked like a little temper tantrum, and there's guys speaking out about it. And I went to Twitter again and said, as long as he raped his own mess, I'm fine with it. Yeah, the bunker stuff I'm fine with. I kind of enjoy that.

That's great. Do your thing. Get that frustration out. You're right. We don't have any footage or we haven't seen any footage of what happened on the Greens yet. I think everybody's pretty much an agreement that if it happens the way they said it did, that's not kosher. But the bunker stuff, I don't mind that.

But you're right. We seem to have found a little something with the guys, the Spanish guys have a little fire to him. Who's your favorite guy to play a practice round with? I play a lot with Russell Hindley. He's one of my best buds. So I love playing with him. He just hits it straight.

And he's one of those guys on every single hole where we drop a ball down and have a wedge or a chip closest to a hole and we gamble a little bit and not for excessive amounts of money but just one shot closest to the hole and we just keep a running tab for the whole 18 holes and that's kind of like my fun little practice round game who usually wins uh i usually win let's be honest what if i asked him that question i mean wedges and chipping i think he would say that i usually win we don't like gamble on who's going to hit the the correct side of the fairway because if that was the case, he would win every single time. But see, I'm a smart gambler.

I size up my opponent. I know where I have the advantage, and that's kind of where I get to chirp him. You went to the guy who wears the visors. He's the visor guy. I mean, like, six years ago, he wore visors. Yeah, every time I hear that name and I search, I see those young pictures of him with the visor. He wore, like, a big visor. Yeah, there's certain guys who you just kind of always have an image of wear a visors.

It's like a very big visor, too. of which how legendary do you all remember his finish in hawaii when he won his first tour of it and he birdied like the last five holes and was making bombs and fist pumping them on the last five big fist pump guy huge fist pump guy i mean it was unbelievable he took the golf world by storm and everybody is now seven years later forgotten about it so johnny miller retired this past weekend how did you feel about johnny as a commentator we're really trying to get you here Johnny Miller, are you scrolling down my Twitter feed right now as we speak? Because you're bringing up everything that I've addressed on Twitter since surgery.

If you think this is not an operation that does extensive research, then you're a crazy person. Yeah, Johnny Miller was a phenomenal golfer back in the day. There's no doubt about that. Commentary, he got a little full of himself at times. and his comments are warranted because he has a track record to prove that yes, he was good enough to do all the things that he critiqued on his, while he was commenting, but I think that I'd give him like solid,

he was a B-plus commentator. Okay, that's pretty good. Yeah. So we're pretty split on this show. huge Johnny Miller fan. Well, I mean, he was a phenomenal golfer, but I do think sometimes he thinks he was better than he was when he's critiquing some of the play on the course. Do you agree with that? Right. So, yeah, so I got berated. My Johnny Miller moment when he berated me was I had just, on number 16, I think I'm in second place at the Honda or whatever, and I got a birdie the last

three holes to maybe force a playoff. And I've just duck hooked a hybrid into the gallery. And so I got my next shot, and I've obviously guarding against the duck hook. And I have another hybrid in from 240 yards into 16 at wherever a Honda is, PGA National. And I hit it in the water from 240 yards because I had just duck hooked one, and I didn't want to duck cook it again because I had to carry. at 225 yards. And I just blared it into the water, and he annihilated me for it.

Did he give you your nerves? Did he get on my nerves? No, did he say, oh, that's probably because of nerves? No, he just couldn't understand why people wouldn't hit it left of the hole. And I was trying to hit it left of the hole. It just didn't work out so well. I did, for the record, Bertie the next hole, which is one of the more sought out. after birdie's on tour.

Oh, yeah. The 17 of the bear trap is an impossible shot to get close. My favorite thing about Johnny Miller is when Guy will have like a 35-foot putt, and he'll be like, it's a pretty easy putt, actually. You should make this. Yeah, he misses the hole by six to eight inches. What was he thinking there? Good, nice.

So let's talk a little bit about the rules. We've had a couple changes this year. First off, the flagstick. Have you done any research on flagstack? in or flag stick out? Last time I checked a put going proper speed doesn't get affected by the flagstick. So, I mean, really, it's just going to be a convenience factor. If I get up on the green and I don't want my academy to go grab the flagstick and walk

around the hole, I'll probably just put with it in from 30 or 40 or 50 feet. Other than that, I'm going to have the flag stick out. Do you think the new drop rule looks ridiculous? Who doesn't? The thing is, I don't understand why you don't have an option. Why can't you go anywhere from knee height or above? That's what I think, too. I imagine they'll change it to that.

I would think they would. Like, especially, I don't know how the senior tour is going to do it. You've got a lot of guys that can't quite potentially bend over comfortably enough to drop a ball at the knee, especially if they're having a bad round and they're having to do it three, four, five times around. I think it could be a liability issue. I like that. You're looking out for the senior. I will say the optics are going to be very bad for the USDA when the first senior guy goes down to drop his ball like that.

His back gives out and he just never gets back up again. Right. Good thing you have that disability to your 65. I've learned all about the PGA Tour disability plan. And then the other one that's been very controversial lately, the caddy's not allowed to line players up. The USDA did announce today that they've sort of made a couple changes to the interpretation of it. Number one is that if a player steps away, then they are deemed to, you know, that official taking of the stance is over, and then anything after that is kind of a fresh start. And then the other one that the word deliberately, they're highlighting that like a caddy needs to be deliberately in his line.

This rule has come up a lot in the last couple of weeks as just being utterly preposterous, that players are getting penalized for caddies being in the line or in their line to the whole behind them. What do you think about this whole thing in general? Well, first off, kudos to the PGA tour for making it right in that Denny McCarthy situation. I mean, you never would have thought in a million years. They would go and retroactively give a player two-strike. I think he jumped from like 28th place to 16th place overnight without doing anything. So, kudos to the PGA tour for doing that. With the Hal Tong incident, he wasn't lining him up.

that's just kind of like the routine of he's going into the ball and he steps away. I don't think he's like, oh, you're aimed a little bit left or a little bit right there. It was just like they're reading it. And some players will be like, what do you like? Left center? Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then they step away. So, I mean, it's not like they're helping them line up to left center,

but that's just kind of how their process of how they read putts and go through it. So that rule is ridiculous. I think that rule is targeted more for the, LPGA tour than it was in the men's game and unfortunately the two incidents happened in the men's game and it never was an issue on tour or on the European tour with players getting lined up by the caddies. Yeah it was cool to see the PGA tour kind of rectify the situation in real time. A lot of times you see that they could take a committee in several different weeks or months of back and forth before they'll change anything. This instance they just made the right call. So

I agree with you. That was very cool to see. What's the best bounce you've ever got? The best bounce? Yep. Oh, man. There's so many bad ones. I can't even figure out the best bounce I got. What's the worst bounce you've ever got? The worst bounce I've ever got, probably I was at the Masters and hit one a little bit left on number eight. and it was going to where maybe like the edge of the tree line or so and to where I could potentially hook a three wood up there and get it on the green or lay it up and it hit right off but one hopped into a guy's shoulder and went left up underneath the

tree and I had to get down on my knees and punch it out a foot or two in front of me it was really just a bad situation that's a bummer that whole that's a tricky little t-shot of that hole yeah it's wide open right really tough. How far does your stock four iron go? Right now, one-handed, I probably could fly at about 75 to 80 yards. It's not bad. With Dr. Coup's division.

But in my heyday, I would say about 214 to 214 yards, I can fly the four-iron. Interesting. It's good to know. I feel like amateurs really like to kind of understand how far guys actually hit their For some reason when you asked that, I thought you said seven iron. And then when he started, when I heard the number two, I almost like just walked out of the room. So my seven hour goes 180 yards. All right.

Okay. I have asked a couple of different guys, what's your stock seven iron? But I thought if we just kept getting like pretty similar yardage that maybe I'd change it up a little bit. So I went with four iron. Well, I mean, the four iron is also like a one out of five that goes the correct distance or the max distance. I don't hit a four iron solid very often. So I might be more in that 195-yard range. Here's one that I always wondered.

What about a three-wood off the deck? Long part five, you've got to just like drill one. Like how far can you hit? If I have water to carry to get to the front edge of the green, I feel very comfortable if there's no wind whatsoever. And it's over 75 degrees that two. 255 yards I can cover it comfortably, like with a few steps to spare. Gotcha.

That's solid. That is such a solid club to have in your bag. You know what I got to do to get over that water? I don't. I got to tee it up. Or I just got to play around like a little pussy. I just got to be like, all right, I'm going to hit a seven-nine over there. And then when I try and play it safe.

The show was nice and clean until you had to drop out. Oh, man. If that's as bad as we get, what if I'm sorry. Oh, man. Come on, Frankie. We had first solid minute. Damn. I know. I'm sorry. I know. It just pops right out of me.

The guy just told us. He's reading Bible studies and you're dropping RPs in the middle of the show. I know, we will not find a swear jar on here. John 316, you're not going to find the pee word. You know, we've got to get a swear jar. At the end of each month, we'll throw a little party with it. I'm sweating right now. I'm tired of getting asked questions. I need one question. Actually, you know what? I need a comment from y'all. Can y'all have one comment for El Cresente getting arrested at the Super Bowl? You want our comment? Great for business.

Yes, I want to come. Okay. Trent says great for business. Frankie? Yeah, it was, I mean, I was there, so the only word I can describe is surreal. I mean, it was a surreal experience watching him and filming him get dragged out of the stadium. I'm going to say, go ahead. That was you filming that when the guy told you that you weren't allowed out in that area.

Yep, yep, yep. blatantly disrespected his request. Listen, it's an issue of law. It's an issue of law. You're allowed to film as long as you're not getting in the way of them, you know, putting him in custody or whatever they were trying to do. I was just an innocent bystander and I was just filming the scene. But that was my job.

That's why I was there. I needed to capture the moment or else it was all for nothing. So I was going to do anything I could. Okay, well done. Two days. My comment is lucky. And the reason I'm going to say lucky is because Dave described that there was a scene where, and Frankie was there, where this guy, these security guys could have grabbed them, like, when they were back in the concourse.

Yeah, there was like a sweet area where it was like, oh, you can eat food. I guess a couple sections all shared the same area. So there may have been 30, 40 people up in this, like, food area. Dave and I had gone up to go get drinks and we saw them start to just. And had they grabbed him then, nobody would have seen it. Would have been quick. He would have just disappeared into the night. And instead, they gave him West. Like, they gave him like five minutes, ten minutes.

to prepare himself mentally and get down to the seats where there's a commotion. Exactly. He went limp. Frankie was able to get ready with the camera. They warned everyone else that were big stoolies, big Barstall fans in the area to get ready with their cameras. And then it became the biggest news of the night was that Dave got dragged like a ragdoll up the stairs as they kicked them out of the Super Bowl. All right, guys. That's good journalism right there. Thank you. Well, you know, we're not journalists, but some people say we're journalists.

So we'll take it. if you could have one shot back of your entire career, what would it be? Man, now that we mention it, or that Johnny Miller came up in the broadcast, I would say that double I made on 16 cost me a few hundred thousand dollars. So I guess I'll take that one back. How often do you think about that on Sundays? Man, you can't think about that. Can't do it.

Can't let your mind go there. Just drive you crazy. crazy. Yeah. How often do you think about it after the fact? I mean, I thought about it maybe for like a week or two, all the things that I could have done with that extra money. But at the end of the day, there's a lot of shots that make you a lot of money. Like even, like especially a guy that like me last year, I cheated around a lot of cut lines.

There was a lot of really nice shots that I pulled off and putts that I made to make the cut. So then instead of making $0 for the week, say you end up making $25,000 or $30,000, and you string a few of those together, and then now you've made up a lot of money with a few shots that are on the cut line that no one even cares about. Yeah, Friday can be as enticing and interesting to watch as Sunday a lot of times. Yeah. I think there needs to be some kind of tracker of like Monday qualifiers and sponsors invites that are. jarring around the cut line to make, I mean, I know as a mini tour player, there were some of my buddies that Monday qualified into events, and they either missed the cut on the number or make, like, that's life-changing money.

If you can make 20 or 30 grand in one week, that will pretty much fund your entire year of mini-tour golf. And they have that opportunity on a Friday late in the afternoon with bumpy greens, the sun setting, and you don't know if you're going to finish four dark. There's a lot of stuff going on, and I think that's pretty compelling stuff to watch. you know what, we should do a better job of focusing on that and highlighting those things. Those are common, that's common man stuff right there. Yeah, that's great.

I like that. What is the Honda Classic, as we were just talking about, they got a pretty rowdy gallery. We talked about the waste management, which is pretty rowdy. What's the most entertaining incident you've ever witnessed in the gallery? It was in Phoenix. I played with beef on Saturday in Phoenix last year. I think it was, or the year before. and talk about an absolute microcosm of sports.

I mean, it was the rally of 18 holes. Like, it wasn't a one-hole deal. It was an entire round of massive crowds, yelling beef, and we'd have some interchanges. The best thing I've got for you is we're just on a random hole in the front nine, let's say, like number six. And there was a lot of people out there following our group, And I went and moved my coin and beef started viling up the crowd as I was moving my coin.

And like a full chant broke out with probably 2,000 people telling me to move my, or congratulating me on moving my coin. And that was probably the best thing I had of 2018. That's awesome. Yeah, I was out there this past weekend and it's just, it makes you laugh every single time. time Matthew Wolf hit a golf ball, there were just hundreds of people howling. Yeah. That kid, that kid's going to be really good. I mean, he already is good, but the sky's the limit for that kid.

Yeah, I was chirping Kisner because he was out driving Kiz by like 30 or 40 yards. Oh, yeah. Anytime you can chirp kids, you take the opportunity. Oh, I do. Don't you worry. So I posted a video, a golf video today in which I topped the ball into the water. the last time you topped the golf ball? You know, I hadn't

done any full-fledged tops in a while. But I did watch my brother top one. He got a sponsored invite into the Cardahania web event on his opening T-shot just cold top to three wood about 150 yards. Shout out to George for that.

Yeah, we had Zander Shoffley when he won in Hawaii at Capulua. He topped one on. That was not a top. So what was it? That was just a spin, and it just got some odd spin going on it. It wasn't like a cold top.

All right. I mean, a thin ball that kind of like goes straight to the ground with some weird spin sounds like a top. Oh, man, Zander. It wasn't a slice. He just went from out to end and it had like some wild spin from right to left. It's not a slice. It's just. I mean, the stunts.

done gotten his eyes. Makes me feel better about myself. Well, Wesley, Brian, we know you're recovering from surgery. We appreciate you taking the time, even though you probably don't have much else to do. Anyways, you are a, for anybody who doesn't know, great follow on Twitter at Wesley, Brian, golf. So go follow him, Instagram as well. Like I say, he's very entertaining.

As he talked about, he likes to chime in on a lot of golf stories, a lot of golf issues. So a very good follow. We appreciate you taking the time, my friend. Absolutely. Thanks, guys. Get better soon. And hopefully we see you out there quickly. All right.

See you, buddy.
