[@j.d.7050]

NLU has produced the best golf video between pros and creators in KZbin history. Absolutely no one has given us Jordan and JT having fun with two creators and especially not on a most scenic and iconic course like Kapalua. Kudos to NLU. They lead with class.

[@Butcho22]

ok but how the hell do you get JT and Spieth and then not do shot tracers...??

[@j.d.7050]

@@Butcho22 They need to work the tripod and shot tracer. What I love about NLU is that they don't beg for subscribers, likes, and comments. They don't even monetize the videos. They rely on sponsorship alone. I'm not sure how they make much money, but it's refreshing. They love to over-analyze everything, but that's the millennial way these days. Soly is good with the drone.

[@Butcho22]

@@j.d.7050 Yeah I mean this could be an epic video and it just blows my mind that they don't have tracers when channels with 100 subs are consistently doing it on their videos.

[@steveskull]

Yes, totally agree! This is the best pros and content creator vid I have seen yet. But I agree with the other comments, NO SHOT TRACER? C'MON MAN!

[@ebergswe]

@@j.d.7050 im guessing most income comes from the podcast, its alot bigger than their youtube. But this new titleist sponsorship already seems to be paying off, I suspect this video is a direct result of it.

I agree, what I love most is how he talks to and chastises himself after every shot on the PGA tour. Just seems like a fantastic bloke.

[@huzkerpride]

This was an absolute delight. Neil's "now watch this drive" is an all-time callback.

[@Jwtexan2386]

We must. stop. the terror.

[@brendanaumann6003]

That shot by JT in the weeds was absolutely absurd. This is a step up I did not see coming, Jordan and Justin were fantastic as well! Jordan saying he gets the “hiya lefts” and immediately aiming left of the green was too good.

[@Shaneathon]

Abosolutely insane shot.

[@theKOOP4773]

This is soo good.... turning a twitter feed into a match with Spieth and Thomas in Hawaii. The dream and so well deserved.

JT out of that waist high rough to 6 feet was one of the best shots I’ve ever seen

[@gbone2636]

It honestly might be THE best shot I have ever seen. I still don't even know how that was possible.

[@the1mexicant]

He said he could get it up and over with a 60 and he freaking did. Best shot in KZbin golf history perhaps that wasn’t holed

[@harrisonfarley8268]

12th hole - JT gives Soly a read, Soly disagrees, JT looks at the camera, Soly misses it on the side JT predicted.... Classic.

Oh god damn, this is going to be epic. The Titleist partnership is paying dividends already. #Icarito

[@impliedpinez2498]

JT and Spieth are confirmed my two favorite pros now. Just the coolest dudes

[@richardgere6042]

Can’t say I’ve ever watched an hour + long video more than once but I’ve easily watched this three times. No Laying Up has been doing everything right with their content for years but this video marks the beginning of a well deserved rise to the top. Beyond excited to see what comes next for the squad.

[@colinkraft7837]

Also, Soly getting humbled by JT is so incredibly satisfying 😂

[@lawtonmullin2991]

He needs it

[@callumferrity2489]

Especially when Justin told him what the read was and solly disagreed then it did exactly what Justin said it would🤣🤣

Okay. Whoever did sound design for this episode: you are brilliant. Crushing the game. Simple but so immersing. The soundtrack entrances and space. So we’ll done. Keep it up!!

[@griffdog141]

Right but they are putting multiple audio channels on each drive, so you hear the impact at least twice and it's very grating lol

[@GoalCreaseGuardian]

I don't know how content gets any better than this. I can't wait to see all that comes from this Titleist partnership

[@conradwehrley7967]

Maybe the best golf content to date. Does not get better than Justin and Jordan. Love their on camera energy.

[@Murph_Games]

I never comment on youtube videos. I tend to be pretty quiet. This is the best youtube video I've ever seen. You guys are amazingly nice guys. Justin and Jordan are as well. It was nice to see. I'm the biggest golf fan ever and have been let down after seeing some PGA tour pros irl. Well done. Saved as a favorite and subbed!

[@collinandersongolfpga]

JT's golf shot at 58:39 was EPIC! Great video NLU, as always.

[@Chubba4vt]

This video deserves to have a million views. I still don't understand how this channel does not have the most subscribers on golf YT.

[@dnixon1023]

I'll keep saying it.. GOLF CHANNEL give these fellas a time slot. Some of the best video and coverage of golf!!! It will Slap

Most fun I’ve had watching Golf on KZbin. A naturally enjoyable group to see playing an insanely heat course.

This is exactly what we all wanted The Match to be, this was really really well done by everyone involved

[@jaybyrne4562]

This was class. Absolutely the perfect balance of golf, banter, not taking it too serious. Awesome to see Jordan and Justin so relaxed

[@ChrisHayes7983]

This was one of the best things I’ve ever watched. So much fun having this kind of access to JT and Speith playing the game.

[@hunterfettkether8181]

This was one of those videos that I wished would never end. Constantly laughing and smiling and thoroughly enjoying myself. Already want another one of these!

[@brianperticari]

Just when I thought NLU could get no better, they give us this. So happy at what the boys are accomplishing. Well done

[@davidfournier3355]

Best golfing video PERIOD! You guys are so much fun! That truly is a dream foursome, I had the pleasure too play Kapalua (Plantation) is that is with out a doubt the greatest course I have ever played!

Thanks to the Pro's for doing that, spending their time, what great blokes! Great vid! Well done.

Neil and Spieth was always going to be entertaining. Not necessarily steady golf, but always entertaining.

The views on this golf course are absolutely unreal. TV doesn’t do it the justice this video does. Great stuff fellas!

[@mattjames463]

This is my third time watching this video. I cannot get enough of content like this. Best tour pro - creator video on KZbin.

[@calebreimers]

One of the best/most fun videos I’ve watched in a long time. I LOVE hearing them talk through shots and it’s cool to see how similar they are to us “average Joe’s”, but with WAY more skill at golf. Great camera work DJ.

[@bighiggy007]

Holy shit fellas. I'm beaming ear to ear for you guys. What an insane experience!!! So stoked, congrats and keep this sort of content coming!

Thomas and Spieth look like one of us out there, well almost. 😂 That was great to watch thanks for posting! I'm kind of nerdy, it's not humidity is lighter it's air is less dence when it's humid = ball goes further.

[@xingli1337]

Love listening to Soly try to banter with these guys, amazing episode.

[@greyman419]

Sublime. Soly trying to sneak in his joke about Spieth's 5 Master's wins and Jordan earnestly replying that he's had 5 chances was the icing on the cake.
