    Not sure I've seen DJ talk so much about his golf. He normally just comes across as a cross between exceptionally naturally talented and not really having any idea what he's doing technique-wise. He clearly feels comfortable talking to you guys as he really opens up about what he's doing with these pitches

      @NovaScene 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Dude, really.. "not having any idea" 😂He is only the best wedge player on tour, won 3 times last season, was OWGR1, ofcourse he has everything technique-wise and idea-wise down to the smallest margin..

      Excellent point. DJ is such an incredibly athletic golfer, he definitely has that quiet, don’t otherthink it athletic mindset that’s a big help to him. I’ve also never seen him this analytic. I wonder if it’s because it’s offseason...

      @@NovaScene Am pretty sure that you've missed my point. If you ask DJ how to hit a certain shot his usual response is along the lines of "I just hit it." The fact that he can hit any shot is why he's so successful but he rarely articulates any technique into what he's doing. This is why I mention him being so naturally talented

      Steven Harrison you’re wrong. The truth is that these two morons are the cross ones and who think they can breath an air of superiority around someone like DJ. They try to act too cool and come off are douchy. They should be praising and revering him. And obvious he knows what’s he’s doing...he plays golf for a living. He said “I just hit it” bc he’s a feel player, which is what most good players are. He also prob said that bc he likely doesn’t wanna put much effort into a video for dumb and dumber here.

    Really enjoyed this, thank you. So interesting to hear DJs points. He is so right, we all have a favourite club, so without realising it, a favourite distance. Same with wedges and distances. To hear the best player in the world say, no, wouldn't leave one of those, what a lesson to all of us! Oakmont

    I really like how he locks his wrists almost before taking the club back. I have done this on the range to help groove a feel and what I like about it is there really aren’t a lot of moving parts. From the shoulders down it’s all one piece and from there it’s just back to a spot on the clock with the left arm to create a distance - and through. They talk about the head going towards the target but really it’s the belt buckle and head all moving as one piece as well - finishing at the target.

    I clean my club faces after every shot. I've made it become a habit. Seems to help me with knowing that none of my shots are changed because of parts of the club I've hit being dirty or clumped. I practice a lot right now too. I totally agree with DJ on not practicing differently from how you'd play. Golf is such a fun sport

    @atomant830 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great info, important take away, notice how the current number 1 player in the world plays to a certain club distance (he doesnt just try to get his approach shot as close as possible). High handicappers should also play to have a full swing distance approach shot. They would be more likely to hit that number as opposed to trying to reduce a club to a lower distance. The calculated layup works.
