00:03 - That's another one where I'd love to kind of dig in

00:04 on his motion because it seems to me like he hits a lot

00:08 of those sort of bump and run chips really well.

00:11 And similar to his full swing,

00:14 gets steep on it a lot when he's chipping,

00:15 but just does it in such a repeatable way.

00:18 And his own sort of, it's amazing.

00:21 I mean, to your point, he just doesn't hit bad chips.

00:23 He's got such a good feel for where he needs to land it

00:26 to use the slope.

00:27 It's unbelievable.

00:29 - His, what he does so well in his golf swing

00:33 and I would say his pitching,

00:35 is that he keeps his height really well.

00:37 Like his golf swing, like there's no like going down.

00:40 He stays like, his head height stays the same,

00:43 but his pitching, really good pitchers of the ball

00:46 get taller in their downswing.

00:48 Like their head moves up

00:50 and Scottie does that better than anybody.

00:52 Like he makes so much room for his arms in the pitching,

00:57 but he also really is so good

01:00 about how he uses the leading edge.

01:03 He's not somebody that uses the back of the wedge.

01:06 He's somebody that just somehow just gets,

01:10 he makes perfect contact because he,

01:12 that angle of attack is a little steeper.

01:15 Similar to like how Jordan pitches,

01:17 just like really on top of it and cover fades,

01:20 just a lot of cut shots.

01:22 But he also can hit those little run and hook shots too,

01:25 really well.

01:26 So he's got all the shots and how he sets up to his pitching

01:29 is really interesting as well.

01:31 Like it's very like wide almost.

01:34 Like it's, he doesn't keep his feet together pitching,

01:38 which I tend to like, but it encourages good body motion.

01:43 But because he gets tall,

01:45 he transfers his weight really well in his pitching,

01:49 getting to his front foot

01:50 and just being able to turn and post

01:52 and just such a good touch and great technique

01:56 and great form.

01:57 - Yeah, it's just, you say that about almost any part

02:01 of his game at this point, but I mean, we're, I guess,

02:06 30 plus minutes into the show

02:07 and rightfully discuss almost all Scottie

02:10 and we'll continue to do so.

02:12 - Just think about this, I mean, we don't have Scottie

02:13 until it'll be the Wells Fargo.

02:16 So getting in all this about Scottie

02:20 because the next couple of weeks we'll have different topics

02:23 of things to get into,

02:25 but I think we're kind of a little bit onto something on,

02:27 let's see what happens with Scottie,

02:29 with having a child,

02:32 which couldn't be more happy for him to become a dad.

02:35 He's gonna be, he's gonna kill the dad life.

02:37 And also just maybe over the next year,

02:41 what are we gonna see from him from a marketing brand side?

02:44 Is Nike gonna lean in

02:46 and are you gonna start to see some tiger like commercials

02:49 with Nike and him?

02:51 I think the answer should be yes there.
