DUSTIN JOHNSON - HOW TO BECOME THE ULTIMATE WEDGE PLAYER | ME AND MY GOLF

[@henrickemmerson4140]

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]

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..

[@adamseidel9780]

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...

[@henrickemmerson4140]

@@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

[@KingRo550]

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.

[@ScratchArkkitehti]

@@KingRo550 i lost your point among the jealousy.

[@chrismayor5147]

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

[@bigmaxy07]

Who would have ever thought even 2 years ago that you could start a channel on youtube and have access to the No1 golfer in the world like this for a casual Q&A session. Amazing stuff guys.

[@Dances_With_Skies]

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.

[@NomadJoe0323]

Oakmont. DJ’s such a cool customer. The only time I remember seeing him somewhat out of character was when he hit that long putt to get into the playoff at the Northern Trust against Spieth. I think he was as shocked as anyone when he made it. 😳

[@theodevaney5781]

Brilliant video. Historic banter from DJ! By his standards! Great platform guys and thanks for the videos. Keeps getting better and better.

[@ryanwelsh1864]

A video on how one of these athletes trains in the gym would be good to see and something that’s not talked about often. Maybe a future idea 💪🏼

[@cityandcovers]

"Again that head is brilliant"

[@christopherstark2691]

Fun to watch DJ and hear him talk about his wedges but I'm not sure how this is gonna help me become the ultimate wedge player.

[@markedwards3312]

@ Christopher Stark: Yeah, I kinda see your point. He didn't explain any set-up, or swing mechanics, etc etc.....all he did was basically give us his (3) yardages with each wedge. Oh well....it was still a cool video though.

[@jean-claudeguignet2796]

Hi all, what a player! So nice he came talk about his game, simply and nicely, amazing, thanks a lot to all! Cheers

[@jkgjr8219]

Haha put him in his most uncomfortable yardage! I love it. People say DJ lacks personality but he’s a pretty chill dude.

[@beckmanchilds756]

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

[@gigi123ification]

very useful hearing him explain the reasons for shots

[@CurtisCorbyGolf]

I have been watching these guys since I started playing golf 6 years ago! I am now trying to become a professional golfer! Nearly there hopefully end of this season I will be on track to become that! They have inspired me to document it aswell on my own channel! Thanks me and my golf!

[@Bschoey14]

The lessons shown in this video certainly has taught me a lot on trying to make this difficult game a lot simpler. Thank you for this amazing content!

[@BrennanRyan]

Agreed. Much more relaxed approach too

[@paulctzimmerman]

Amazing interview guys. Really loved seeing DJ talk through his short game.

[@xavierp21]

Great info from DJ, I hate pitch shots anywhere from 50-35 yrs but anything 60-90 yrds I feel super confident in. Course management is what I need to work on

[@Blackyboi39]

I am very comfortable with any number from 20-50 yards as long as I can flight it to a 1 hop and stop, this makes Par 5 lay ups very easy for me

[@nealclinansmith]

Thank you so much for all the great videos and tips. I have heard you both speak to Pro's about fitness. Do you have any videos or suggestions on gym workouts?

[@radiantonion8615]

always love to see what DJ does. So knowledgeable about what he's doing and very clear when he describes it.

[@justjames1111]

Shows his all-round skill here, a great demo by DJ.

[@keepsitreal8301]

Love these videos, the advice to lay up 80-120 was vital for me.. finding a yardage your comfortable with wedge wise . Happy golfing lads 👌🏌🏻‍♂️

[@ajscholtz6536]

DJ won at the Oakmont Country Club. He looks so relaxed while playing. Like he is totally in his element and he cant go wrong. Great vid guys!

[@meinking22]

These Pros are true luminaries. Fantastic series! DJ has his swing so dialed. Absolutely impressive.

[@chrisrote7641]

Very cool to see DJ in this environment and get his personal thoughts on the how and why of his wedge game. Oakmont!

[@bginho7]

Oakmont, Father’s Day 2016, -4 total after bogus penalty call on 10. He’s my favorite golfer and you lot are my favorite coaches!

[@craigedga4r]

DJ spot on - where average joe goes wrong ie trying to getting it the closest they can. Play the course to suit your game do not let the course dictate what you will have to do!!!💪💪💪👍👍👍

[@e99783]

Best interview with DJ I’ve seen. Well done

[@giacomogazzellone1570]

DJ won at Oakmont Country Club, Pennsylvania, in 2016, he shot 4 under to win in great style after having lost the year before in a tragic way. Love the videos

[@hughyearwood2749]

Lovely video. DJ is nr 1 for all the reasons shown here! He knows his shots down to the yard!Oh, he won at Oakmont Country Club in 2016 :)

[@Danksunfish]

DJ won at Oakmont CC. Great to hear him talk about his approach to wedge game. Thanks!

[@scorpjitsu]

I noticed how he applies forward shaft lean right before the backswing. I always set it up immediately. Time to try this!

[@francismuwani8429]

Might have watched this late but pretty interesting.. thanks guys watching from Zimbabwe, Africa

[@danjsy]

Very good, he's very engaged, it shows how little there is to talk about when hitting a driver as in his previous video ! If i were him I'd also have mentioned that he was having to chip from a downhill lie - my ultimate nightmare, but he seemed to cope !

[@Quintonwalsh]

What a GREAT video ! Just letting DJ talk and give allot of information was really interesting to hear his thinking when hitting a shot.

[@anirit34]

Hii Guys.... I am watching your series and it's very helpful to improve my game. I request you to please upload video related to golf rules basic changes etc. It will help many new player.

[@joshuaking1194]

This is a timeless masterpiece

[@gatorwhiskers9011]

I absolutely LOVE these kinds of videos. I am definitely an info junky

[@seanjones3734]

A very good bit with DJ. My 3/4 SW is 100 and 3/4 GW is 115. Really helped my scores to have those to shots. Oh and I believe it was Oakmont

[@paulkoppenheffer5323]

Cool Hand Luke won his US Open at Oakmont. His approach to the 18th green was one of the most beautiful I have ever seen. Cheers and all the best.

[@robortizmusic2409]

The man took home the US Open at Oakmont Country Club in 2016! Love watching you play hopefully some new golfball could help my game out!!!

[@spesh9205]

How do you do it?, DJ was so relaxed and honest and open about his shot making absolutely brilliant. We club golfers can learn so much more by seeing pro's like DJ keeping explanations simple. Keep them coming guys, great stuff.

[@phillipmillward3178]

Tried this head movement with my long game practice last night and what a massive change. Felt that i could clear so much easier and control the face with more body turn and then in turn have a more stable face. Great video 👍

[@craigedga4r]

My wedge set up parkland pw 46 50 54 58 62 T20 Ms but used to 45 50 55 60 64 Links 45 50 55 60 1 to 4 degree bounce

[@yinghe8716]

DJ answered so many questions I had in my mind. one of the best golf video I've seen

[@atomant830]

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.

[@paulclydesdale7861]

DJ won at Oakmont Country Club in 2016. Great video, nice to see DJ talk at some length about his game. Cheers.

What a lad, still wanna see the Rory video though

[@nolanlocke870]

Jochem ter Bogt they already made one

[@NovaScene]

Rory had the irons, Rahm the driver, JDay will be putting. They chose based on best stats of the season I think..

[@NovaScene]

I looked into it and it seems one of Rory's contracts was breatched that made them pull the video down 😐😤 Maybe Nike made them pull it down, if I remeber right he was not wearing Nike logo. Laaaaaaame This is the Internet, someone saved the video and it will be up somewhere else..

[@Moishe555]

@@NovaScene that is disgusting!

[@NovaScene]

@@Moishe555 Seems like one of these guys from this channel confirmed it was not Nike. So that pretty much leaves Omega.. Maybe Rory was rocking a Rolex by accident 😄 It seems like these guys from this channel are sponsored by another watch brand, so that could have caused it...

Oakmont fantastic insights!

[@theoutdoorsman9726]

That was cool at the beginning when he was talking about the little long drive contest between him and Rory that they showed in the earlier episode they did for the unveiling of the new TaylorMade equipment. DJ beat Rory but it was by the tiniest of margins. Everybody knows how far DJ hits it, but it still blows me away after all these years to see just how freakin far Rory hits the ball. DJ has probably got 6”-8” on him as Rory is like 5’8” and DJ I believe is 6’4”. That long spindly body and great flexibility is what gives DJ that massive length on the course but Rory doesn’t have that height in his frame to give him that speed. This makes The fact that Rory is right there with the longest guys on tour even more awesome. Rory is able to get his crazy length from perfect technique good flexibility and crazy fast rotation with his hips. But honestly it’s just awesome to watch these guys out there smashing the golf ball and overpowering these golf courses. Good times!!
