Speaker 1 (00:07):
On Scotland. So here's my tips.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
My tips Number one, get in shape, Number two shape
check your ego at the door. How would you get
in shape? Though, Andy, you better work out a lot, walk, run, bicycle.
I mean one of the things that and I do that.
I mean I work out with a trainer twice a week,
and I usually go to the gym on Sundays and
if I don't golf on Saturdays.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
I go to the gym on Saturdays.
Speaker 3 (00:31):
Thanks to Hess, I can yeah and so and Doc
Garrett at a rosty energetic.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
I'm going to take in every ounce of natural stuff
I can to hold off father time. But father time
is winning because about the fourteenth hole, the legs start
to go if you're walking that far, and even if
you have caddies, you still have to walk up and
down hills.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
Not all the golf courses are that flat. St.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
Andrews is pretty flat, but some of the other golf
courses are not.
Speaker 3 (00:56):
I just thought of the new advertiser for us to
try to get who's that should get insuls.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Let's get doctor shoals you could do that would probably
help you as well. Some really padded shoes, comfortable walking
golf shoes. But you need to make sure that because
you're not getting a cart and unless you have a
doctor's note and you pre book it like six months
in advance, they're not going to give you a buggy.
Speaker 3 (01:15):
Now, are are golfing shoes any different from because I
know they have somewhat of like a little bit of cleats.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
Right, Yeah, they either have like ribs on the bottom
of them or they have actual plastic rubber spike.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Is that the type that you wore? Did you just
wear like actual regular shoes I have. I have golf
shoes shoes.
Speaker 1 (01:34):
Okay.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
See, I'm learning, I'm learning people, and I may be
getting more golf shoes. I may need to go for
more comfort in the future.
Speaker 4 (01:41):
Well, you know, we'll see what happens.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
But yeah, get in shape, check your ego.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
And if you and play the golf courses that have history,
you can go. You can go to abandoned Dunes in
Oregon or Whistling Straits and in Michigan, I mean Wisconsin,
or Key Island, South Carolina. There's a lot of great
golf courses that are fancy and new and all that
kind of stuff. If you're going to Scotland, you're going
(02:06):
there for the history of the game. And we went
from East Lothian, which is east of Mirfield, to the
Highlands to the Aberdeen area to Saint Andrews.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
So and then remind me again, Saint Andrews is the
one that has the two bunkers from Hell, right, Well.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Have one, but the Hell bunker is on the fourteenth hole,
and you want to avoid that. Jack Nicholas lost the
open one year by getting in that bunker way too
many times.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
Yeah, Andrea the Giant would look small in that bunker. Yeah,
still have to he'd still have to look up.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
It's kind of interesting because when you're in that bunker,
especially when you're far back from the lip of it,
you think us you knock it out, but somehow that
lip gets in the way. But I've never been in
the Hell bunker, and I thankfully because I've had caddies
have told me.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
To avoid it.
Speaker 4 (02:52):
Well, that's a smart caddy exactly.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
You know you don't want to go that direction because
you might hit it in Hell Bunker, and you don't,
you will be in Hell for a while if you are, so,
so make.
Speaker 3 (03:02):
Sure that you go the other direction. It's it's that
saying that I keep saying. Ty is like, in order
to go forward, you got to go backwards out of
that bunker. Well you do go to the side.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
Yeah, the side.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
You just when you get into a bunker, you're like,
well this this should be easy.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Yeah it's not, so you just have.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
To yeah, have And when we played at Carnousti, I
want this is six seven, seven years ago, but Tiger
hits this this shot out of this fairway bunker at
Carnousti on the front edge of the green.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
Uh huh.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
And I'm it's one hundred and thirty yards from that
bunker to the front edge of the green. And where
his ball was and how he got the ball up
that fast and hit it that far. That may be
the most spectacular show because it didn't look that spectacular
on TV because he made it look easy and it's Tiger.
But I'm sitting there like, is just getting done? If
(03:51):
you got it out of this bunker and go like
ten yards max, And he had one hundred and twenty
yards one hundred and ten yards on the green from
this bunker that is as tall as he is.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
Yeah, It's like it's like that Tiger commercial where he
just goes walks up to the guys on the driving
range and he's like, hey, you want to outdrive you?
And then he sits there and gets on his knees
and I'm like, I've asked you several times. I'm like,
there's no way that was real. And he's like, yeah, yeah,
he did that in real life. Yeah, but that's why.
But that's why he was That's why. But that's why
(04:22):
professional golfers like him that hit it far when he
was filming that commercial. They hit it far because they
have They use their legs and their lower body, but
they also are tremendously flexible and can rotate. So if
they get on their knees, they rotate from the knees
up and from the waist and separate from the waist
of the knees with what's up top.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
And it's like, it's like, here's the example of it.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
If I take a rubber band and I'm gonna shoot
it at you, you know, throw a rub and I
and I barely pull it back and I let it go.
It's not gonna hurt you, just gonna go. But if
I stretch it as far as it'll stretch and then
it go, then it's gonna have some power behind it. Yeah,
And that's what the golf basically is is how much
can you torque the upper half of your body around
the lower half like a rubber band, and when you
(05:06):
let it go, what kind of a spring effect if
you will, has.
Speaker 1 (05:09):
It to be able to springboard for that distance.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
That should be something an event that they should do.
They should have like like Morikawa and Scheffler and be like, hey,
we're just gonna play do gimmicky stuff and everybody on
their knees who can out drive each other.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
They were showing a promo a little earlier.
Speaker 4 (05:27):
For next should do that, you know, live should try
to do that?
Speaker 3 (05:30):
Well that that way maybe somebody might watch besides tie.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
Yeah, I'm disappointed you on the bus there, Sorry about that?
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Where was I here?
Speaker 3 (05:42):
Well, I'm glad you had fun though. Yeah, I'm glad
you save travels and everything. I love my shop.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
By the way, let me tell you this, get a
driver driving on the left side of the road is
the most anxious driving in the world. I've now done
it twice. There will not be a third time with that.
Speaker 4 (05:59):
How many white how many times with a white knuckle I.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
Had that that stirring wheel of that van has my
handprints in it permanently. They got this nine passenger van
and you're driving on roads that are half the size
of ours. Their their idea of a highway. They have
what they call a dual lane carriageway, which is a
two lane highway in both directions. Okay, the rest of
the and it's between Edinburgh and I don't even know
(06:24):
what city in the middle of nowhere Scotland. But going
from the east coast to the west coast, like going
from Inverness to Aberdeen, I mean you might as well
be out in West Texas somewhere on roads that are
half the size uber over there.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
I didn't see it. I'm told they do, but I
didn't see it.
Speaker 4 (06:42):
Did you see NeSSI?
Speaker 1 (06:44):
No, you didn't see NeSSI.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
But the but the caddy at Royal Dorning said, if
you have enough beers, you can probably see them from
a certain distance, but alcohol is required before you can
actually see NeSSI and we were not. We were not
too far from Lotness. But apparently if you drink enough
you can see them. But if you don't drink enough,
and I never will get to that stage.
Speaker 3 (07:07):
How those things work out yeah, it's kind of yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:10):
All right, let's put this show back on the rails
and finish it up next.
Speaker 1 (07:13):
It's six forty four on the ticket.
