      Could you add yardages to the banners in your transmission and in the videos. It is a fixed feature in PGA tour, and it is a lot of fun knowing how far one has hit / needs to hit.

    A lot of speed with his upper body without coming over the top. His right hand grip is unique, he makes an underhand move thru impact with his right hand.

    Looks to have a great future young Wilco. Love the balance and control in his golf swing. Long and straight off the tee with a solid short game. I imagine he'll keep playing on the European Tour for a year or two and gradually move over to the tougher PGA Tour.

      Seems like he has the ability to finesse the ball as well. The first shot in highlights looks to be a beautiful trap draw into the wind. He didn't manage to pull them off 100% but I saw draws/fades in this clip. But definitely understand/agree with what you're saying.

    • @swinger2
      @swinger2 3 года назад

      “work the ball like no other” so what like shot shaping? You got tiger, distance control and finesse? You got Phil. These are traits that every golfer has to have to be in the PGA, hitting over 320 is not one of those traits so it’s interesting. If you want to watch people work the ball that’s any PGA highlight video

    • @swinger2
      @swinger2 3 года назад

      distance is all we look for because it’s what’s gonna save golf from permanently being a uncool, exclusive, stuck up sport. If we keep golf the exact same for another hundred years nothing will change. Bryson is a show man, making golf fun and entertaining again for more then just golfers. Regular people don’t care about finesse

  • @Spaxcore
    @Spaxcore 4 года назад

    I wonder about the big hitters sometimes. I know he came runner up which is incredible, but you look at his driving in 1st round vs the rest and it's so much better. I wonder about energy expenditure. It's like trying to run a marathon at a 5k pace. These guys have 4 rounds to play, I feel like taking 50 yards off your drive and having a 9 iron instead of a wedge could maybe give them more longevity. But then what do I know?

      Stupidity? More akin to learning.
      It's a reference to bulking up. You don't need "bulk" to add length. Particularly when it's already there with Wilco. Forget Bryson gaining the pounds. Remember Tiger before he decided he wanted to look like an NFL line backer? Skinny. All coil. Elasticity wound up to unleash natural power. For whatever reason Tiger went about bulking up. He didn't need to.
      That's where Wilco is now. He is skinny. All coil. Elasticity and he simply bombs it. No need to "appear" strong for the sake of ego. Keep it as it is and focus on short game and putting. A foreboding prospect. He has, like Tiger had, the perfect physique for Golf. All the best of luck to Wilco, he's a star of the future no doubt.

      @@jonathanlynch8372 bulking is what will protect you from destroying your body beyond repair ..which is what many these juniors face when they eventually turn pro and loose their flexibility with age and get injured very early in their pro career. this is why they need to either slow down their swing or bulk up in accordance to instruction with a professional trainer..not advice from some rando golf commentator or youtube armchair expert.
