Trent: swipes his putter face across the ball and pushes it a foot off his line Frankie: dIdNt rEaLlY mOvE oN uS dId It

[@RiggsEyes]

Trent got his putting stroke from watching Riggs daily 9

[@christophergolfer]

LOOOOOOOOOL so accurate

[@DerrickWallner]

Dude slices putts. It's crazy.

[@connorwhite5468]

Great series, you guys should get Riggs to do a break 90!

[@djr973nj]

It’s almost like hitting your putts at a 45° angle will make the ball not go on your intended line. For the love of god use a ball with a line on it and see how insane your putting stroke is. The ball is literally spinning more in place rather than rolling end over end

[@bushtruck]

but trent already broke 85

[@bushtruck]

i think he just cant do it when hes tryna please frankie

[@ConstantineAndreas]

Loving the Breaking 85 series so far, but we gotta get a lesson vlog weekend again soon. Those are always awesome content.

[@Knice1310]

Hole 1. 174 in. Frankie “whoa. That’s struck” proceeds to be 30 yards short. 😂😂😂

[@warrenlu6724]

face was 10 degrees open

[@burtonray9259]

"Did you eat an edible for breakfast?" I was thinking the exact same thing Trent. He is talking crazy this episode. 🤣

[@natefisher7578]

Is it me or has franky become a cocky little bastard over the past year?

[@Hellums96]

Babying those short putts only makes them harder, have some confidence and knock it in. Trent could easily shave off 5+ strokes a round with 10 minutes of daily practice on a mat just making 4-6 footers and building up confidence.

[@herenow2424]

DO A PUTTER FITTING. It is all about the putting. The way Trent is holding and moving his putter is a recipe for desaster. Will help with a mental reset too 🙂

[@troyrambo6804]

Yeah the push putts with very little backstroke is killing his consistency. NO follow through, no speed control, very little ability to know where the face is. Needs a few lessons to iron things out and give him some consistency.

[@Steve-qn8gn]

Fitting isn’t a lesson, he needs to learn how to putt correctly before blaming it on a brand of putter.

[@michaelallen2501]

​@@Steve-qn8gnactually, it's one or the other. He needs lessons on how to use HIS putter, or he needs a putter fit for HIS terrible setup.

[@Steve-qn8gn]

@@michaelallen2501 it’s not one or the other, there is no putter that is made for a wipe motion that he has.

[@sirblt4923]

I love that Trent represents Iowa proudly, a lot of people don't know how fun it is growing up there as a kid. I lived in Urbandale (West Des Moines area) for 3 years growing up, & it was a blast! Street hockey, building awesome treehouses overhanging the creek, & Hawkeye football - as a kid, you can't beat that with a stick! Only thing I wasn't a fan of was the winters, one of the winters I lived there, the average high was a negative number if you went off of the wind chill number!

[@zachbabb7394]

these putting strokes are outrageous

[@Steve-qn8gn]

He’s so bad, I like how says “slippery” when he outside in swings the putter..

[@Belbivdevoe]

It's crazy because in the foursomes he puts lights out

[@Steve-qn8gn]

@@Belbivdevoe he gets lucky. And there is an element of knowing 3 others are putting after.

[@Rich-rp9os]

@@Belbivdevoe Trent has never been lights out with putter. There's a different mentality knowing you have three more chances coming up. You play enough scrambles and some of those 10-12 footers are gonna drop. Even the worst putters are bound to make some eventually.

[@beewebber3231]

Boys you need a more bent putter shaft. You're both very high toe up on putts. it'll help a ton, especially with a spider.

[@christophergolfer]

And also a putting stroke that isn’t cutting the ball across with side spin.

[@xandermcq]

Riggs putting stroke is starting to look better and better the more I watch Trent putt

[@bennetthurley9153]

Bryson and Phili trying to break 50. And Trent break 85. What a day to be alive.

[@EvansSucksAtGolf]

I also watched both of those videos today 😂

[@bdoubleeb3039]

Slicing putts is wild

[@pete9685]

The average golfer plays from the white tee's, why is Trent playing the blue?

[@chadp6324]

Not the longest course. 6300 from tips

[@tatebeazley2323]

@@chadp63246300 as a par 70 tho..thats honestly asking a lot from Trent. Guys like 200-220 off the tee, gonna be hard for him to break 85 if he’s constantly got 175+ yards into every green on par 4s. He really had a distance advantage breaking 90 in Colorado.

[@brianhall6270]

Totally Agree

[@christophergolfer]

@@chadp6324but par 70, the equivalent of about 6500-6600 for a par 72. Too long for Trent.

[@botrott]

If he carries his 5 iron 165 he should be playing a course around 5900 yards, if that course is 6300 it's too long. He can't keep having 190 shots into greens and lay up, his short game isn't good enough as he will still make bogey or worse much more often than a par.

[@rileymurphy559]

Trents putting stroke is crazy. Been noticing it a lot and apparently so has everyone else 😂 My PXG 0211 Lightning has a nice line on it, the head is very flat. Has helped me tremendously

[@brianmurray4199]

Trent "I'm trying to get 10,000 steps in" as he's riding a cart 😂

[@sspayde179]

even when i ride i end up with around 12,000-14,000 steps

[@michaelcassara2339]

Mill Pond is such a great and underrated LI course. Well maintained, challenging but also a little forgiving. Really cool to see you guys play it.

[@jamiekonrad4154]

Is moving up tees the worst idea considering a lot of the par 4s were 3 shot holes and 4 shot holes for par 5s, or maybe just take 2 extra clubs on the approaches idk

[@KGB908]

Trent daddy, hitting your driver further doesn’t mean swinging harder homie! It could be time to try to learn about swing path and face angles. Straighten out the slice even 50% and you gain that 15-20 yards you need to have more comfortable clubs in your hand for your approach! You got this dude.

[@jimg.8020]

Frankie throwing the long range darts! And Trent! Great hustle buddy!!!

[@CynicalFOLEY]

On this week's episode of "We tell everyone to tee it forward but Trent still plays the blues with a 220 yard total drive"

[@ForePlayGolf]

it was 6300 yards from the tips

[@Rich-rp9os]

If using the driver x 28 method, I'm guessing Trent's "recommended" box should be closer to 5700-5900. I would wager that if you really average out every single drive, he's closer to maybe 200 yards. He struggles to reach sub-400 yard holes in two -_-

[@CynicalFOLEY]

@@ForePlayGolf Yeah, which is too far. If Trent's average drive is 225, he should be between 5800-6000 yards. Just look at the first hole. He hit a good drive and he still had 174 into the green on a par 4. If he's playing from the whites (the correct tees for him) he has 150-155 in. Look I know you can't just change the tees he's playing in this series because that looks bad. If he moves to the whites and breaks 85 within an episode or two, you'll get tons of people saying it's invalid and that he cheated to get out of the challenge. It's hard place to be. But also, wouldn't it further push the idea that teeing it forward is good? We've watched tons of episodes of Trent struggling from the blues. If he plays from the whites and plays well, that's proof that people should tee it forward. Just my two cents. It gets frustrating watching someone struggle when they don't have to.

[@WilbanksUSMC]

Which is why it's more impressive that he's trying to break 85.

[@gilestupinan896]

@@ForePlayGolf 6300 but Par 70. If you replace a 170y Par 3 with a 510y Par 5 to make it Par 72, look at that 6640 yards. On the other hand, you'll hear it from the 84 doesn't count on a Par 70 course, so it all evens out I suppose.

[@dannythornton4527]

Great series. You are guys are fun to watch. Both ups and downs

[@joshuajones2066]

You fellas are great. Love the fellowship. Love the golf.

[@The4WBoys]

Frankie and Trent are keeping FPG alive. This is content right here.

[@ThatDude_JT]

"Another bunker that looks like, what does this look like to you?" "Normandy!" wtf lmao

[@kc8kir]

Trent's forward press trigger seems to be helping the consistency of his iron strike a lot. For putting, he might really benefit from learning to putt down a ruler / yardstick so his putts start on line and rolling true. Just a suggestion. We'd all like to see him hole more putts! Keep the great videos coming!

[@benyoon9845]

Frankie's driver swing after missing the putt at 39:06 has me dying

More long island public tracks! Try Indian Island in Riverhead!

[@emhsdean]

[@thomasbrown8462]

Trent please god we HAVE to stop playing an 50 yard slice with the driver. All the other bad stuff gets so much easier if you're 40 yards closer to the green on every hole.

[@zlee919]

the most hilarious part is when trent started this whole thing he said his putting needed the least amount of work. Its literally his worst part of his game

[@brandonwilson6554]

Frankie is me and I am Frankie. It’s a love/hate relationship with this game. One minute you’re your own biggest hype man and the next you’re telling yourself to sell your clubs when you get home 😂 id pay good money to play a laid back 18 with these two. Great video

[@bobkathy5877]

Super impressed consider they played the tips

[@petey33x]

As soon as Trent understands how to use his hands/forearms in his drives he’s going to hit it so much further. Love watching you two play together.

[@J_pearce01]

Trent’s chipping has improved a ton. Good job brotha

[@Irimis]

Love mill pond, I'll alway try play here when I go back to the island.

[@sebastiandelacruz2279]

Just here for that Trent positivity!!!

[@CHruby-sz3yl]

It is just so cool that when he started, I said to myself, cool this guy who sucks, is going to try to get better. Now, he is better than me! What a journey!

[@stevef8395]

Frankie needs his own video series. Like Frankie Vs Local Munis. Gets a feel of the local spots. Idk but the guy is a damn great golfer and entertaining, I feel like he needs his own series more than Barstool Vs and cohost of breaking 85. Just my opinion. Great video

[@Layne_M]

Everyone here wants to shit on the putting, and yeah it's not great... but the improvement in the consistency of contact from Trent is outstanding, and that chipping is coming a long ways. I don't see this challenge taking long at all, if Trent gets some lessons on his weak areas.

[@PhilipDowns-l2z]

Trent- you can save so many strokes if you take off the side spin on your putting!!!

[@Lefty1293]

Would love to see an episode dedicated to Trent picking up some speed/distance- similar to the Tillery episodes between rounds. Making the game a lot harder having hybrids into par 4s! I believe T

[@BRP99999]

Great track. Played it 3 times the same week you guys did. I played with only irons from the whites and I do think Trent would enjoy it more from the whites at this course. Come play in Utah! Loads of nice courses in the fall.

[@Mmillan8353]

Scared to absolute death of the putter

[@num1islesfan35]

Shot one of my best scores (87) at Mill Pond. Keep the content going.

[@andyfrost25]

Trent, that chipping game has come a long way. Congrats

[@brandonmaymudes4003]

Trent, mid handicapper here with no justification for giving tips. But if I were to, upon set up try lifting the heel of the club up a little more vertical. Should help decrease your slice on all shots from driver to putter. Heel up, let it rip. Let’s break 85 🤝

[@chilimaggaming]

Rockin' the Pete and Bas.

[@trevorcarpenter1475]

I really relate to these videos and the bob does sports videos for the simple fact that my putts look like that most times nowhere near having a shot to go in

[@sirblt4923]

Pete & Bas are the old British rappers he was talking about, & they're actually really good! I'd listen to them over basically any rapper from this era, plus they do something Drake doesn't - they write their own lyrics! The one that T-Pain did a verse on was fire, everyone should check them out, you won't be disappointed!!

[@bradhoban1479]

When Trent learns to take his hands out of putting.....Trent breaks 80

[@wkndwarrior4733]

Always impressed by these NY golf courses

[@StoolBreakdown]

Hell of a round!

[@SouthernUtahGolfAcademy]

I'll keep offering this to you Trent. Give me 30 minutes on the range with you and I caddie for you on the round and you will break 85 first try. Guaranteed!! I know it sounds ridiculous but I'll fly myself to you at my expense. I'm the Director of Golf Instruction at the Southern Utah Golf Academy in St. George, UT. We can do this.

[@camloucks3308]

idk why but i believe this guy, let him do it

[@BRP99999]

Great course. Played it 3times the same week you guys did. I played with only irons from the whites and I do think Trent would enjoy it more from the whites at this course. Come play in Utah! My putting tip would be to just look at the hole for a few seconds and let your subconscious do the rest.

[@DubVGolf]

I need an episode where Trent clubs up on every second shot and goes for the back of the green number so he can actually get to pin high

[@marklags2396]

First time I played Mill Pond, I didn't like it. Now it's one of my top 3 courses on Long Island.

[@mikethomas8020]

After all these years of golf, NOONE can teach trent how to shallow the club and swing in to out???

[@snafo19]

Mill pond is gorgeous, and it’s a par 70 btw

[@sirblt4923]

Y'all need to start trying to putt it 18" past the hole, & if you miss & go by, just watch the line after it passes the hole. If you did that, you would've easily broken 85 that round, if not 80! Maybe get your putter bent a few degrees flat too, & you'll be golden, Trent! 🫡⛳️

[@gbone2636]

Trent’s next step is to see someone about driver swing mechanics and creating speed…line him up with literally any coach, but specifically getting that driver to be an actual weapon instead of a liability

Alright Frankie, when are you guys doing Timber or Bergen??

[@wesleywright3159]

So close. A couple of lip-outs go-in. You erase that triple and make a few more up and downs and you had it. The driver/irons were getting you close enough, just need to be tidier around and on the greens imo
