00:00You just mentioned his name right there. Smiley. You were out walking around with him today. Bryson DeChambeau. He's the next on this board going off a 20 to one with a 4.3 percent chance on data golf to win this tournament. His tee time to 48 p.m. local on Thursday with Bobby Mac and cheese and Justin Rose.
00:20Just just give us let's start with what was the mad scientist up to today? Well, what was he? All sorts of hijinks, correct?
00:27Yes, he was given a golf ball from somebody in Spain, and he's been testing a bunch of different Dippel types of golf balls because he's been trying to get his golf ball to have less curvature in the air.
00:44So this is like a nonconforming golf ball, and he just has one of them. And he kept on hitting it off on different shots on different holes.
00:51It's like, see, guys, look at that. It's like the ball is like not even moving. It was insane.
00:56I mean, it was it was pretty wild. Like he had an iron shot on the six hole that I mean, there was no wind on the shot.
01:03Like, for instance, it was a 20, 25 mile an hour wind off the right. This ball is getting hammered and moved to the left.
01:09But he hits this this like heavy sand ball is the best way to describe it with no dimples.
01:13And it doesn't curve at all. And he's like, see, look, it's called a it's called a hold on.
01:21I got a name for it. It's called a Polara Polara Polara Polara Polara golf balls.
01:28OK, I want to look this up. And I mean, I just and on it, it says ultimate straight.
01:33And wow, I don't think it's ever been a conforming ball, but he's in the market to try to find a golf ball right now that doesn't curve as much because his ball goes so high up in the air.
01:47And he thinks that with long players that those that the golf balls curve too much.
01:52So he is on a mission to find a ball that's going to curve less.
01:55Let's talk to your buddies at Strix on and get like a dozen of Polaras and just get them like reskin them.
02:01So people think they're conforming and then I'll just dominate and hope Valley Men's League and no one will be the wiser.
02:06I think this is there's something in there for me to kind of work out here.
02:10I also you tell me like I'm obviously never played professional golf.
02:15Does it seem a little bizarre that you're you're going to the fourth major championship of the year and you're trying to get your numbers?
02:23Dialed in you're trying to see the wind performs and you're playing a non-conforming golf ball and like one of your few practice rounds.
02:29I mean that it's hilarious.
02:31It's great content.
02:32It just seems a little bit wonky to me, man.
02:34When he chipped with it, it was hysterical because it was it came off like so high in the air on just like a basic chip.
02:41It would just go like this ago.
02:43It was a knuckleball and it wasn't ever spinning like you could never hit a low checking shot.
02:48Laurie Cancer and I are just like we're just giggling watching how much fun he was having with this non-conforming golf ball.
