I would be a bottom-tier talent out there 👀

Fifteen years after we played college golf, our names are on our alma mater’s home tournament.

 

Nine under at Solina is excellent

Shout out to the kid from Liberty.

The one who impressed me most was the kid who won. Austin Krahn from Liberty shot nine under over three days at Solina, and in the conditions out there that is really, really good. A few of those guys got to seven, eight, nine under, and it was set up tough.

The greens were running about twelve to thirteen. If you got short-sided, you were making bogey more often than not. To win out there you have to be mentally on your game, be on the correct side of the holes, and put yourself in position to two-putt or get up and down.

Three days of solid mental game, executing shots and making putts. Nine under is excellent. Shout out to him.

 

I would be a bottom-tier physical talent in that field

They hit it so far, so straight. It is sickening.

For the most part, the guys at the top end hit it so far and so straight, with great golf swings. You have 180 ball speed and you think, yeah, that is short. There were kids there at 185, 190, and they hit it pretty straight. They drive it better than me and Wes.

Can they control it as often as me? No. Is their short game, their mental game or their course management as good as mine? Probably not. But physically they are way more talented. Where Wes still has them is his short game and that killer instinct. Most of the kids in that field do not have that yet. They are young.

So if I played, would I win? Probably not. And as well as I know Solina, I should, sure. But if I played well, I think I could finish top ten. The talent is there at the college level.

Ole Miss took the team title by a single shot.

 

Alt shot with Wes is volatile

Very entertaining to watch. Not our best format as brothers.

How would me and Wesley handle alternate shot? Honestly, it is pretty terrible. It is violent. Or, not violent. It is volatile.

I blame him. He gets mad at me for getting mad at him, and it is just a circle of negativity. Very entertaining to watch, but it is not our best format.

It is a lot of fun, though. It makes good content, and it is hard, so it is fun to see if we can mentally overcome a tough format and shoot an under-par round. But alt shot with me and him right now? It can get dicey.

 

Lots of average shots, and my misses are not that bad

The injury took a little driver pop. It also made me straighter.

The most frustrating part right now is distance. I have lost a little pop off the driver from the injury. A little muscle, a little swing speed, and it is a little sad. But I am hitting it straighter, and I feel like I am playing the game a little better.

The simplest way to put it: I am hitting a lot of average to below-average shots, and my bad shots are really not that bad. There is no shot I stand over thinking, I am going to knock this tight, or I love this yardage. It is routine, make a swing, and it is pretty good. It is okay. It is fine. That still lets me shoot good numbers, because when the misses are not bad and I make some putts, I can go low.

The other one is wedges. Too many times inside 120 yards I am hoping for a good result instead of standing there confident that this is my sand wedge and this is my number. That is the offseason project. Get sharper with my wedges so I am confident when one is in my hand.

 

One of the greatest Bryan Bros moments goes live next week

Collab week with Bob and Grant has started.

Funniest thing this week? I will let the videos do the talking. The first of our videos with Bob and Grant went up this week, and the rest go live on our channel next week. You will see plenty of funny things on camera.

One of the greatest Bryan Bros moments ever happens in the second video. Three videos, all of us, one week. It is amazing.

 

That is the week.

P.S. 👀 Who would you pick as your alt shot partner? Hit reply and tell me. I would rather hear it from y’all than guess.
