US OPEN Preview With Johnny Wunder

Can we all agree that kickers are notoriously the best golfers in the NFL?  There's got to be a secret to it right?  Wil Lutz, Pro Bowl kicker for the New Orleans Saints, tells us his golf story and how he balances the fun of the game with his profession as a bad ass kicker in the NFL!  He's played some great golf courses and tells us one place you 100% HAVE to visit plus what it's like kicking a 58 yarder for the WIN on Monday Night Football with Drew Brees leading the way!

What an amazing tournament it was! WOW...that finish was spectacular and a blast to watch!  Congrats to Jon Rahm on the W! Another huge congrats to friend of the show Chris Baker who qualified and played in his first major championship last week at Torrey Pines! On this Bryan Golf Show presented by Pinned Golf, Bake takes us through the week and what it was liking playing 4 rounds in the U.S. Open for the very first time!

It's legit the biggest week of the year!  Why would we not bring on JW to talk Torrey and US Open golf?

What a good hour of golf talk here!  Especially for those of you enamored with tech and data and the path that it is leading our industry down! We touch on radar launch monitors versus optical launch monitors like GC Quad and how the accuracy indoor and outdoor is unparalleled!  (Which is why we use it for our fitting studio!)  Plus, where is the future of golf headed and how does tech play a part?

Will I got back to back on the pod as far as champion predictions. go?? Also, what type of nugs did Johnny get from his time with Phil Mickelson talking about his setup at Augusta?  Answers and more on this pod!!  

This is a filler episode.  We really just need to get to next week's Masters preview! Ha!  While we wait, here's some questions we got on IG that I gladly answer on the pod!!

What a weekend it was at Battle at the Beach!  Weather that would rival the OPEN Championship on it's worst of days!  None of that stopped us from having an amazing time and a successful event!  Excited for the next one!! Also, clear winner in the bag in the driver category for me?  I think so!  Looks like the replacement for my SIM 9.0 comes in a very different but familiar package!

For the gear heads out there, this is BIG news for all of us!  I couldn't be happier for my friend Johnny Wunder!  No one is as passionate about the gear in the hands of tour players like JW and he will represent the gear nerds better than anyone!  Kudos to him and Callaway Golf for teaming up to add another layer of amazing golf content to their brand.  

For the first time ever on a podcast, my good friend Johnny Wunder is in town for Battle at the Beach and has turned BryanGolf into his hub for a couple days before the event!!   We talk plenty of golf, golf clubs, BATB, and tease a new opportunity for JW that is being announced next week!!

We got the stupid questions from Instagram...and we answered them with brutally honest answers! ;) We love you much and thank you for your participation! (Not all stupid questions are THAT stupid, btw...)
