Interesting discussions but it's little wonder that professional rounds of golf take 5+ hours.
Gotta love the amount of knowledge JT shares ! Really happy he got back into the winner circle
Literally just text my local pro a question and Justin’s just answered it ….. are you listening to me YouTube 😂
Great video!
JTs the man! Very happy for him and his recent win.
My favorite part is when they laugh at amateurs 😂
Every club companies youtube needs a trottie
Great post! Win for TT getting Piers and Andy.
I didn’t know slightly shaping into the wind would make the ball sit down. I always thought the wind accentuated spin regardless of shot. Would’ve loved to hear elaboration and explanation on that, and also on chipping into the wind vs. With the wind.
Let’s go JT!!!! Love your game!!!
Love that guy …. genuinely a nice all around guy too .. go JT !!
Really enjoyed spending time with JT. Great recent win and definitely not a surprise to see him back at the top. Great work! Thanks Titleist 🙏
Lol JT congratulations bro.

Great insight!
I Love this
lots of salutes in this one
Man he's either seeing some amazingly small details or he's a bit paranoid. That lie on the first shot he's saying its on an upslope, ball below his feet? Its a driving range, how uneven could it possibly be, looks pretty flat on camera no? Maybe a touch below his feet. Also the thought of picturing a trajectory as a way to gauge distance seems wild to me. Pros are a different level I suppose.
Great video guys. Notice how much detail went into his intention and very little in terms of the technique.
Something I think so many amateurs could benefit from
Is this at TPI?
Yes chaps! How good is this!!
Let’s go to school with JT!! Priceless info for approach shots
If you told me JT is hitting 9-iron 138 with some wind I'd call you a liar. Goes to show that the pros aren't chasing "what club did you hit there?" while us amateurs are- play the best club for the shot, who cares the number on it!
Good to see Titleist improve the production quality. A few years ago it was shaky camera footage that was barely watchable. This content matches the premium quality the brand is known for. Glad to see someone may have paid attention to my comments back then.
At 70+ yo I have airmailed greens from 190+ by 20 yards with a 5i but I would never grab a 5i from 195 yards. A massive pull hook is just another shot to have but it is a round killer when you do it accidentally and leave it in the pond or out of bounds.
Very instructive.
So. Damn. Good.
Wow, PW full out 140 and controls it to 103, that’s the difference between tour pro and amateurs.
Bryson and Rory would be hitting a lob wedge😂
This really helped me. I'm in no way comparing my game to JT. I played 9 yesterday and got back to choking down a bit and cutting my iron shots. It was windy so played mostly flighted shots clubbing up. I'd been struggling to the point of almost putting an old backup iron set into my bag for league start this week. Those thoughts are gone and feeling confident again.
Implemented this strategy did shots off feel. For example my 52 degree goes about 120 in the middle of my stance. I was hitting 9 iron from this distance and felt like I played okay and shot a 86. My PR is 83 at the same course.
Seems strange you guys not wearing Adidas , Taylormade
Incredible video guys. Well done
If someone is hitting driver on a par 3 then they are playing the wrong tees
….WOW!…thats about 4 min I'll never get back before he actually hit a shot…
That was like 7 shots
