EP120 - I quit golf, became a long drive pro & friends with Bryson (Martin Borgmeier Guest)

[@MartinBorgmeierLD]

Thank you so much for having me! It‘s been a lot of fun!

[@volkerpetersen2671]

I hit my 8 iron 151m carry the other day on the range. Felt like you for a Moment! Love your content Martin (and Rick)

[@brenthobby3282]

Martin you’re the best brother!!!

[@Beyeitze]

🥩

[@timothyphillips4801]

Your rad Marty.Thanks mate...great podcast.

[@DoomsdayCracker]

If Bryson is the "Mad Scientist" of golf, then Martin is "The German Engineer". What a beast of a gentleman with incredible insight explained in an eloquent and entertaining manner. That is the recipe for amazing golf instructional content and why I am a huge fan of your KZbin channel(In addition to Rick's of course!!). Good luck this year Martin! I'm rooting for you.

[@filecabinet827]

If the long drive doesn’t work out for him, he has a future in doing audiobooks.

[@MartinBorgmeierLD]

Don‘t make me blush!!

[@GibbsLD395]

Martin Borgmeier is genuinely an awesome guy. This podcast let me learn things I didnt realize and he's always been encouraging and invested in himself improving but also others. As he is working towards 240mph, I'm working towards 400 yrds and I know who I'm rooting for this weekend. Thanks Rick for doing this episode!

[@Cha0sRising90]

The mindset of what I think a true competitor: I will gladly share my secrets, because then I can compete against the best. Sure, more amateurs will flock to the sport, more people doing it just for the fun. But, it will also ignite the passion of someone who didn't know it was an option. That passion is so addictive! Martin is truly one of the greatest ambassadors to long drive, but also to golf in general. His channel, and Regecy, is full of such positivity about the sport. They encourage each other, their "opponents," and everyone. Such a great episode, Guy and Rick! And thank you, Martin, for being you.

[@jlangston7221]

Another long drive striped right down the middle! What a great podcast, another great guest. Rick and Guy are killing it right now. Keep it up

[@ironsideeve2955]

I watch this lad Martin all the time. So good for getting tips on driving the ball further :-)

[@kevinregan3224]

This is one of my favorite interviews. This guy is probably the most fun guest you've had!!! :)

[@glennmcilvenna3142]

Interesting guy is Martin, to think he only really took it up in 2017 seems ludicrous, good luck in the worlds Martin and thanks for the content Rick

[@lazy_dad]

watching bryson, martin and kyle at the world's last year inspired me to get into long drive in canada, and i am almost 53! if i can do it, anyone can! let's gooo!!

[@TBATTIECYCLING]

Guy and Rick and killing it right now , free content of this level. Thanks so much!

[@timothyphillips4801]

Rick and Guy,you've done it again,(and the rest of the team),fantastic insights into long drive,great interaction, you lads continue to impress.And Martin,thank you so much...you WILL get that belt mate.👍🇦🇺🙂

[@richardgilbert8470]

Was thinking yesterday how great it would be if you guys got Martin on and here it is!

[@TBATTIECYCLING]

😂

[@timothyphillips4801]

Haven't seen it yet but you lads keep this up please,Friday evening in Australia and I'm pumped!..another Friday surprise!!

[@williamcoulson4636]

Love Martin! Awesome to have him on!

[@markroper9269]

Love the video! Martin and Bryson are hilarious......I can see big prank culture there! Great interview.....Go Martin!!!

[@lorinsmith9898]

This is a great surprise for a Friday morning. 👍

[@TBATTIECYCLING]

😝😝😝

[@johnpaton8047]

RSGS, thanks for a great show. Love the enthusiasm.

[@RoelfvanderMerwe]

This is f*cking incredible! Loving this show lately! This dude is so cool!

[@virtualmartijn]

@39:30 If you go and play you would either have to show your EGA handicap card or your PGA membership card. Same is in The Netherlands. Our EGA card is digital now in the phone app of the golf association. There are courses (like Old Course, St. Andrews) where there is a handicap limit so your need to carry some proof of it.

[@Imunique2me]

Love you way sharing info to grow the sport, share, the way to go Martin.

[@nashibae]

Martin is an inspirational, charming beast, that I can’t stop watching. Love Martin’s content. Great guest.

[@mattconnard89]

Martin is the man, pure drive and commitment into the sport…only up from here! 💣

[@wecolouritall]

Martin seems like a cool guy. I did laugh at Guy trying to compete in the beard stakes :)

[@metalheads-golf]

Ahhh cool to learn he was into basketball as I am still playing and from b-class of '68. Good fundamentals. Martin is such a chill cool guy. Stay metal dudes, Eric. 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻

[@jasonricco5835]

I just got in the car Sunday and drove from New York to Mesquite Nevada got to meet Bobby Peterson &Ryan Reisbeck on Thursday got to hit at the grid purchased a shaft was hitting bombs I highly recommend attending events next event Jupiter Florida Letssssss Gooooo. Can’t wait to meet Martin tomorrow awesome time everyone is super nice and very approachable. There is a lot more than just swinging to the sport .

[@MrUKCyclist]

Love this. As a Brit in Germany great perspective from Martin……Rick come over and we can have a game @ Bad Vilbel GC…..super close to Frankfurt and super track.

[@svenbauer7178]

Great stuff, Martin,Rick and Guy! With Martin's enthusiasm I could imaging what a great sales guy he must have been... Still, a wise decision to chase your dreams! Alles Gute Martin!

[@matshowalter906]

Sweet! Bonuscast!

[@TBATTIECYCLING]

🤩🤩🤩

[@cjherriman7226]

Was amazing seeing or listening to this. Rick looked like a little kid staring at his idol. Martin is an inspiration to the sport and so very well spoken. Should be very interesting to see what equipment changes to accommodate the insane club speed or ball speed.

[@cjherriman7226]

To add to the non golfers hitting insane speeds. The place that I was fitted at was saying that hockey players have insane club speed

[@timct7969]

Great insight into long drive. I have been following Martins youtube since Worlds and have been enjoying it. Using some of his tips especially left foot and lifting. Havent hit golf balls yet but keen ti do so...

[@rogerschuck5013]

what a great guy, very passionate about his sport and interesting to see his point of view. hope he achieves his goal as world champion.

[@AlejandroMunoz-su4wd]

Most entertaining and fun guest you've had on so far!!!

[@scotttilbert8141]

Watched the whole episode. I really enjoy your content

[@tubopedia]

I think the "whats stopping a long driver from competing on tour" the funnest discussion about the difference between two athletes.

[@NyqrEn]

Same in sweden to play golf you need to get a golfcard .. Otherwise we have 9 holes course thats called PayAndPlay. and there can everyone play.

[@MrRyanqualle]

Loved this episode! Hope Martin is on again sometime down the road

[@ChristerGilbert]

Tuesday podcast has been a real highlight, but who would have thought that friday podcast is where the real gems lie.

[@stuartwisbey8687]

Is the theme tune being changed again to the wideboys song - Sambuca?

[@gavinporter8035]

Friday specials! 👍😁

[@vivienknibbs6456]

what a great listen. Martin is a top guy

[@hanleyagolf]

Martin is awesome ! Great podcast

[@aidangriffiths5075]

This was awesome 💪

[@andrewmacdonald6742]

What a top guy, Martin is, thoroughly enjoyed it

[@tayllorzwift]

My favourite pod, what a fantastic guest. 😊

[@robertrenekerjr6819]

Most states in US have rules to keep right except to pass. Problem is that most people do not respect that and it is rarely enforced.

[@smpt2013]

Very inspiring person! This was so cool Rick and guy!

[@jake_lawrenson]

In lovely 4K as well!

[@kelvindawe5123]

These long drive chaps never take the credit for there skill I watch all the Kyle Berkshire videos and he constantly pars a course but as Rick says when they strike a ball it's just different it is the perfect sound you imagine you should here they just hit that spot bang on amazing keep it up m8. 💪👍

[@roberttexas3618]

I love his explanation of how he creates power .

[@Mitchell52094]

Liked the talk about the German golf licenses. I wish courses would require some sort of tutorial in the US. Nothing crazy, but just a 5 minute talk with someone who shows you how to fix a pitch mark, replace a divot, quick course explainer, pace of play reminder, etc. just require it the first time someone plays there each year.

[@shannonm5307]

Love it! Great show and information!!!

[@PetSKi67]

Great idea being open and transparent, what Martin os doing. Basically no secret will be revealed actually, cause it is two different things understanding, seeing what a pro does and do the actual work to get faster. And yet say 10 average tall good to ok golfers did the same, there is a good chance, just one has the twitch muscles and understanding of the rythm to gain speeds above 125 club.

[@addo1339]

Martin is a bloody legend!!! Good Good should be trying hard to get him

[@kevinregan3224]

I love the videos that Martin and Bryson make.

[@TBATTIECYCLING]

Delicious upload guy

[@harvey785]

Really interesting podcast even though I'm not into long drive. Very insightful.

[@thomaspaysinger1047]

7 degrees sound me like you needed to be training busting wood..Fire sure would feel good LMAO

[@bigweena3151]

Started off playing baseball, picked up golf at 20 and am totally addicted lol

[@liamcoakley8395]

There's a European long drive event on at alder root golf club on the 16/7 & 18/7/22

[@j.d.7050]

He's a good guy for sharing his techniques. There is very little useful content about long driving techniques on KZbin. He also seems like a very good guy overall.

[@jonelburn8055]

Another great episode

[@ironsideeve2955]

Rick and Guy trying to pull a David Chase @22:16

[@brenthobby3282]

No shit & Not joking, Martin is the most exciting dude, personality, golf guy on Earth, love him!!! Crazy smart, crazy good….maybe sucks at golf, who cares, he’s amazing. Lol

[@lmc1dj]

I can't keep up boys. Lol. ✌😉❤👍

[@thomaspaysinger1047]

Really i am Kyle fan i been following him before he even won first one just like his swing...But i been following Martin too last couple years THIS 2 BEAST

[@kimseufert349]

Rick if you ever come over to Germany / Munich Area, give me a call... we got your need for the Autobahn covered with some BMW M vehicles...

[@kevinregan3224]

Long drive would be an amazing Olympic sport! :)

[@harvey785]

How long before there is pro Top Golf competition? That would be fun to watch!

[@tubopedia]

The discussion about the left lane, it is chaos here in the US.

[@FiftyLibros]

I hope Rick was OK. He seemed preoccupied and unusually serious. Martin was fun and his story super interesting! Guy, competent and proficient as usual

[@kevinregan3224]

Mixed long drive!!! :)

[@ericcharron7797]

What a episode #martinborgmeier what an awesome guest

[@diddymercs]

I've done 167 mph driving a Ferrari! Wish I had some distance in golf.

[@chrisjeffers7300]

so not interested in long drive but this was very enjoyable Martin is class!

[@nickhoskinson925]

Well it paid off he became the PLDA world Champ!

[@healz8284]

How good

[@TBATTIECYCLING]

Too good

[@nickvorbeck2068]

This is awesome

[@allenhalegua4839]

Sorry, Watched a week late. Really excellent show.

[@johngraham2335]

I am sure someone has already mentioned this to Rick but his thumbnail has Martin's name spelled wrong...

[@ThunderThumz]

This guys a beast.. but should get Kyle on here. He’s won and he won young.. also the first long driver to help Bryson try and gain some club speed.

[@jishudas4979]

I keep reading the YT Golf Day as “white golf day”

[@joshuaking1194]

What the hell is going on??? More content. Spoiling us here 😁

[@vivwilson3745]

I'm half British and half German. Grew up in Britain with a German mother. She's been married to a brit for 37 years. She doesn't speak English with this dudes accent. Ridiculous how well he speaks english and in such a short space of time too. He's is close becoming my favourite guy in golf. And I'm not that interested in long drive

[@bigjohny8446]

It's a shame it seems like there's not much money involved in long drive compared to regular golf 150k for a world champion isn't much surely?

[@bryanromey8168]

I think it was very difficult to find the long drive when Bryson participated. It had some shotty video and commentary was not great. The numbers from the grid were contradictory. GolfChannel needs to get in on this and they need to do a better job with the events. I would like to watch more.

[@michaelmaczka7083]

Yeah, chicks dig the long ball. However, I'd love to see Rick v Martin 9 hole match play

[@jaybird9988]

Look guys, the left lane is supposed to be the passing lane in the US also, it's just that we have a ton of stupid drivers.

[@Thughes88]

The Olympics were in Beijing China, not Tokyo Japan lol

[@rayturvey5868]

Crazy he looks like a bearded tyrrell Hatton

[@lawbinson]

Martin is a so smart and articulate. It’s disgusting.

[@buckygunts1020]

Let's go

[@TBATTIECYCLING]

👐🏽

[@dominicbaiamonte9991]

He won!

[@hanro7430]

Very moist

[@TBATTIECYCLING]

🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵

[@andrewmacdonald6742]

I wish they did a test here in Thailand, there etiquette is absolutely disgusting, no thought for anyone else on the course, yelling, groups of 8 and 9, they won't call through

[@us6469]

Borgmier=Borgmeier 🤔

[@briansmith7576]

Yea it’s the Rick and gay show let’s count how many times gay touches mic and mic stand throughout the podcast

[@TBATTIECYCLING]

Guy*

[@briansmith7576]

I know it’s guy ffs he is a bit gay though

[@darrenhill3514]

False. we have laws against hanging out in the fast lane here in the US but we also have an egregious # of entitled liberals and stay at home moms that do whatever the hell they want with no thought of courtesy for others.

[@SteveSmith-wv8ug]

Interesting but he's kinda arrogant. Look at me, I'm the greatest! Sorta like T.W. in his prime.

[@MartinBorgmeierLD]

sorry if I made you feel that way, definitely not what I intend to reflect 👍🏾
