You can tell what he is putting for, because they put how much under par he is in the op left corner and what hole he is on. If he is 1 under par and he makes a putt and goes 2 under that putt was for a birdie if it stays the same it was for par, etc.

Fun to see places where I've played- thanks for this

Played behind bubba one time it was incredible the difference in the guys I was playing with being near scratch and him being a pro

Played this course numerous times it's a fun track and they have the best bloody Mary's 😁

Bubba is too COOL! Love this guy!!

So 5 minutes to watch Bubba play golf and 23 minutes for jada smith babble.

love the retro 5’s!

Nice pair of Js! Bubba is always a blast to watch.

I completely understand. I am much the same way. Golf is not one thing. There are many forms and styles. Everyone needs to find what they like and just enjoy that aspect of the game. Loved the video and way to drop that putt with those chirping in 18 👊🏼

Before he hit that pitch on 18, he made certain that the camera had that shot. He told them that he was trying to make it...nice. bubba is an artiste on the course. Thanks

Rocking the Jordan 5 wolf greys!!!

That's how many of the courses around here look. Houses and roads around the fairways with OB everywhere. The penalty isn't so much the tight lies as the trouble everywhere else. What a hoot it would be to play a round with Bubba. Enjoyed.

Bubba Watson plays with arguably the most mesmerizing shot shapes in the world. Would have loved to get at least a few shot tracers.

Arizona has so many good courses

Let's go with this!

What a great character!

I read an article about PGA tour professional golfers vs club pros, it said that the tour players are 5 shots better than the club pro. One of the significant difference was the length off the tee. Also tour pros play courses that are much tougher , in all areas. Getting onto the PGA tour is very, very hard.

Par 3 pin tucked in the back. Everyone else is hitting a baby cut at the left or middle of the green, not bubba. 20 yard hook to 3 feet. Big tree blocking cutting the corner, need to shape it, not bubba. Skyscraper bomb right over the top. This guy plays golf like no one else on the planet. A true legend of the game.
