These videos are very well done!!
Great video!
Hit it lower to cheat the wind. Teeing it lower helps. Groundbreaking secrets.
Never thought keeping it low in the wind was a secret strategy to anyone but great video series none the less 😂
The diagram has zero to do with Darwin
Really cool ‘secret’ strategy
The diagram has zero to do with Darwin. Great video!.
Then on the flip side, great ball striking is more important. Tom Watson didn't hit the ball low and he did ok in The Open…
The golfer that does the best in the wind is….. Tom Kite 🪁
