00:00Okay, everyone, we're here to check in with the sand game today.
00:10It's been quite a while since we've checked in with the sand game.
00:13This is the daily night, of course, brought to you by our great friends at G4.
00:16We got a pretty standard bunker shot here.
00:18Green runs away from you.
00:19A pretty flat line, maybe even a couple uphill lines here.
00:22A couple of different ways to get this close, as you can see.
00:26You can obviously try to fly it a little bit there with some spin or chunk and run
00:30it.
00:31I'm not quite good enough to really know or execute at any given time.
00:34Either one of those perfectly on command, but sand games felt pretty good lately.
00:38I think my technique is decent and really I've just been focusing on tempo.
00:42I know that sounds simple, but a lot of times we forget about that.
00:45I can get quite jerky out there, so I've really just been thinking about taking it back all
00:49the way, letting it set a little bit, and then coming through it again with nice, decent
00:54tempo.
00:55A couple of good shots here.
00:56I'm going to, at the end of this, take a ball back to the back of the bunker and go on a
00:59severe downhill line.
01:01It's a shot that I struggle with, but in general, I think that if you're around my skill level
01:06and you can just get bunker shots out onto the green within 10, 20 feet pretty consistently,
01:12that's not bad.
01:13Hopefully make a putt or two, but again, technique I don't think is that horrific.
01:17Really just work a lot on my tempo, on striking the ball in terms of where your club entrance
01:21is and where I'm trying to, and I really, really want to focus on G4.
01:25I'm wearing right here the Galavant Tours, spelled with a 2R.
01:29These things are incredible.
01:30They really do kind of mix the comfort and the style with some of their traditional,
01:35you know, the Galavanter, which is a classic, classic shoe.
01:38It's my tournament shoe, as I call it.
01:40This thing is just an excellent shoe.
01:42G4.com slash 4 gets you 10% off your first purchase and they got a bunch of great styles,
01:46including the new G18.
01:47They got a bunch of different styles that we all wear here at Foreplay.
01:50This just happens to be the pair that I'm wearing today.
01:53Like I said, pretty decent effort.
01:54We're going to take one back here.
01:55We're going to go to a downhill lie.
01:56We're going to try not to send this into the road, break a window, kill somebody, and incur
02:01quite the expense, both financially and emotionally.
02:08So here we go.
02:09Last one.
02:10Let's conclude the Daily Nine.
02:11G4.com slash 4.
02:12Go check out a bunch of great pair and get yourself 10% off.
02:15Oh yeah, I ripped two there.
02:17Not too bad.
02:18And that is the Daily Nine.
