Influencers are the John D Rockerfellers of our age. Theyre all very brand conscious. Is this good? I dont know but how does listening anyway actually help your short game? It probably requires a bad case of the shanks to overcome the illusion of infusionary influence.

No I didn’t detect that at all, it was an excited conversation between two experts at the cutting edge, it’s not an ordinary interaction so you can’t apply the usual standard.

Hey Saus. Where do you think the cynicism is displayed? He is a selfpromoter, but not more so than many other elite athletes. Jordan. Namath. LeBron. Many race drivers. I think he is very good for golf. Could you elaborate? Thanks.

This is Masters Champion 🏆 Immelman you're talking about. 2 Champions just throwing down. Look it as a conversation occuring in a loud smoky bar. Tbere's gonna be interuptinitua. The upside no cigar smoke filling your grill. Thanks

@@quantumpotential7639 This is the brother of Trevor Immelmann. Therefore this is not the Masters champion. At any rate, this is entirely irrelevant to the issue of his infuriating and rude interruptions.

.. you are overstating it my man. When two people are extremely interested in their conversation that’s what happens. It’s an exploration, not a speech, you were expecting a speech. Go drink some chamomile tea and relax 🫖

@@cdunne1620 Wrong. His constant interruptions were rude to both Bryson and his listeners. Were you raised in a barn?

Sometimes interruptions are needed to clarify a point, especially with someone as detailed as Bryson. But sometimes interruptions are annoying if the guest is hitting on something profound as Bryson also does.

Yes. Infuriating.

Your nerves would not likely hold up under 72nd hole US Open pressure. Block it all out and stay focused. Sink the putt. Thanks 😊 for cooperation.

@@quantumpotential7639 Completely irrelevant.

I'm about to put it on Social Media. Check out @mark_immelman on Instagram. Sorry for the delay, I was on vacation.

@@MarkImmelman thank you

LOL

Right by my feet

Not sure what the swing speed is but he can crank it off the tee.

Fingers crossed for you

@@MarkImmelman I think that we can only get so much from watching Tour players and to a large degree they reinforce bad habits and tendencies. Because they are good despite their bad habits, and you often can't see the whole ball flight in these close-ups. And you can't know the intended shot vs the actual shot. What I see more are the differences between players and the corresponding derivative "tips" from the YT crowd. So these are useful...but of limited use. Some people make too much of Tour player swings. Every now and then I see an amateur video like this which is interesting. But in the long run there are a lot of good players who are not on Tour. A lot of good swing-tips that aren't being used by good players. Every so often a useful tip or swing video with an interesting result But all that is still miles away from playing a good round. Did you ever notice that to play scratch golf "in regulation" you take the same number of putts as non-putts? 72 shots per round. Half are putts assuming 2 putts per hole. So for every par-3 you need a par-5. If you have 2 par-3s and par-5s on each side that means 36 putts but only 16 drives with the remaining 16 shots either irons or woods... So your longest possible hole that you can par involves a 3-wood or long iron, a chip and two putts. Possibly no chip or a chip and one putt. So for a par-3 you are limited by your ability to get on the green in at most two shots while sinking the putt. For a par 5 that would be 4 shots plus the one putt. Basically divide the yardage by (par -1) and get within tap-in distance. So for a 700 yd par-5, 500 yd par-4 or 300 yd par 3, you just need to clear the tee carry and divide the remaining distance by (par-2) strokes. So why is golf hard? Because we make it hard by trying to hit our clubs out to unrealistic and unnecessary distances. We always try to play as long of a shot as possible...and we miss most of those shots. Surprisingly this adds another 15-40 strokes to our score. Then we wonder why we are unhappy with our game. Even shooting between 81 and 90 we have to miss half of our putts. Nobody is going to 1- putt 18 holes. Realistically we should be happy just to break 100.

@@MarkImmelman I'm in debt to you because you inadvertently helped me to solve a problem about golf which has been bothering me for 30 years now. I wrote it all out in a long reply to this but I don't see it...oh well. The summary is what is important. Golfers need to stop making golf hard. Play by a few simple rules #1 Get on the green as close to the pin as necessary to 1-putt the hole. #2 divide the remaining shots equally, adjusting the tee shot, the approach shot and the possible intermediate shot to clear the tee-carry and lateral hazards. #3 Keep the ball in play, put the approach on the pin and sink the 1-putt. That will get you birdies on the 4 par-3s and 14 pars for a 68. Even if you 2-putt every hole that is only an 86. If you 3-putt 14 holes & 2-putt 4 that is 100. So the most that anyone should shoot is a 104, mixing 3 putts per hole between chips and putts. No chips and 1 putt per hole= 68 1 chip and 3 putts per hole = 104. Oddly the difference is 36 strokes.

yes sir

Well, given I watched the shot and its trajectory I can tell you it was flushed and cut through the cross-wind like a hot knife through butter.

@@MarkImmelman Unfortunately Fred Couples swing popped up before this clip, apologies but it was such a big drop in swing quality.

Yes it is! Thank you.

It flew like one too.
