I Challenged Bubba Watson to a Golf Match

[@tee1up785]

Breaking your caddy’s balls “You have to tell me that”. That is the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard. Of course he didn’t think YOU were going to hit it fat AF 50yds into the rocks. Props to you caddy for saying “I didn’t think it was in play”.

[@StillAProudAmerican-ll2yc]

I have been such a fan of Bubba's back when he wore "the Buzz cut". Watching this reminds why I like him so much. He's fun, pleasant and amazing with his moving the ball where he wants to. Saw Phil with Bryson and it was negative vibes instantly. Bubba, an amazing contest I would love to see is a 2v2, match play. You and Grant Horvat or Garrett Clark, your pick vs Bryson and the one you didn't pick. There's so many other golfers too that could play too and skill levels are amazing, but not quite pro level, yet.

[@HoselRocketLabs]

Bubba being annoyed from the first tee and EAL continuing to be a jack ass is exactly what I thought would happen and can't be disappointed that people are exactly as they seem.

For all the handicap doubters: I’m a 2 (used to be +1) and just played this course form the tournament tees. Shot a 90 on a windy day. It’s tough. Now add the pressure of playing against Bubba with people watching. No telling what you’d shoot on a bad day with all that accounted for. He might not be a 3, but I doubt he’s worse than 5 or 6.

EAL doesn't hit the same anymore. The breaking series used to be good but recently, just has his boys on there, last one with the owner of LAB. Cool video of the Artisan wedges and then compares them to kirkland wedges but just shows it doesn't matter how much your wedges are if you can't even hit them. Also just seems moody now, yelling at the caddie about bunker work and the rocks where he just fats his iron shot

[@betajotalilly]

Back in 2003 I was a senior in high school in Salt Lake City. The Korn Ferry Tour (back then I think it was called the Nationwide Tour) was in town. A handful of high school golf teams were invited to a clinic with some of the tour players. We had no idea who the players were, but we were stoked anyway. Turns out Bubba was on the of the pros. He and some other dude spent an hour just hitting balls off the first tee while we all gawked at their talent. We all know Bubba's incredible hook shot from the tress on the first playoff hole of the Masters, right? Well, I watched him do that first from that tee box. He was sending balls out over the left rough and they were ending up OB on the right with complete control. At one point he took the other pro's right handed driver, teed it up swinging left handed with the toe on the ground, and pumped it out 300+ (yes, altitude helps, but still). On top of his talent he was so fun and relatable. He answered a bunch of questions and even through some respectable shade back at the doofus kids who tried to get smart with their questions. I'll never forget the day I became a Bubba Watson fan back at Mick Riley in Murray, Utah in 2003. Edit - The tournament wasn’t at Mick Riley. Just the clinic.
