Catching Random Golfers LYING about their Handicap...
Ойын-сауық
Do golfers LIE about their Handicap? The Divot Dudes, Conner and Adam, are going to find out! We called out a random golfer to see if he was honest about his 4.7 handicap. We did a 6 hole match and it was a GOOD one.
Shout out to Will for being down for a challenge on the fly! Hope you guys enjoy the video. Where should we go next?

Pro tip...anyone that immediately answers with a handicap in tenths of a stroke is not lying about their hcp.

@@chenzocosimo3250 yea and no. I don’t necessarily think you can tell someone’s handicap just by looking at their swing. I once knew a low handicapper that was a frustratingly short hitter, but he had the short game of a magician. I NEVER bet against him bc he would wear you down and beat you every time.

Will is definitely a 4.7. His swing is nice. The only difference today is 1) first YT video golfing for him, 2) Some of his shorter ships and putts were off. Will is legit.Great job Will!

Really like this will guy yall should have him more on the channel!
So far, in every one of these I've watched, Conner says, "We tee off in like 12 minutes?" 12 minutes exactly every time. Lol.
Great content, made me hit the "subscribe" button. Props to Will for accepting the challenge and being at a disadvantage of having to compete against you guys playing best ball. Without that my guess is he wins the match.
that guy is chill as hell, no doubt he's a good golfer with that mindset. 2-iron on the first hole is goat things.
Yes that's golf. Minute differences on any given day.

Not flawed. It’s designed specifically to be representative of your better days on the course. That way, you only get rewarded when playing against others on a good day of golf. It wouldn’t be fair or useful to reward people for an average day

So...have you played in a golf league? Handicaps are flawed and screw better players. Ii loved going up against single digit guys, as about an 11. One year my 4 best rounds in league gave me a 4 handicap for the playoffs...I was giving dudes strokes on par 3s. Absolute garbage.

@@ryansleeper1077 sounds like you’re league may be misusing handicap because you need at least 20 rounds to get an accurate handicap. 4 rounds is nowhere near enough
HCP - the P stands for potential. Thats why its your beat 8 rounds out of 20 and not your average score.

I am a 30 handicap. I GUARANTEE YOU I'm not lying about it, haha.
I was here at 7:10 in the morning
I always like the guy you're playing golf with, prior to you never met. It's normal to ask what his handicap is. He'll say he's a five but not playing up to it. I'm going WTF, I'm gonna tell him I'm scratch but not playing up to it. 5:30 Most handicaps are determined on match play and not stroke play. Which makes it hard to evaluate a true handicap. But not by twelve strokes
Is this at Harpeth? Some of these tee boxes look a little familiar.

do another video with will, love to see him play more comfortable
Will is legit. He had some good swings and clearly has the distance with long clubs, which will make his next approach shots with low irons more likely and thus scoring better. Definitely needs to work on his short game (which he was doing when they found him). The chip on 5 I would have taken a little lower lofted club and ran the ball out more as he wasn't far from the green. His handicap will drop when he fixes/fine tunes chipping and putting. Also, Adam played well
Yes 4.5

The HC is totally flawed. Especially for low index players.
Handicap is typically what you shoot on your best day
Hi Will..
I'd say he's probably more around the 7-10 handicap range, you can tell by his ball striking,swing and stiffness straight away but a decent golfer all the same i guess🤷♂️
MLB + 2 iron + good swing + pipes the first shot = guys probably not lying lol
Defiantly not lying about handicap ... However the guy who plays off 10 ')
The golf handicap is supposed to mean what you’re capable of shooting. Some people shoot it more often than others but most people shoot it once every four or five rounds.
I really don’t understand what a handicap is but the fella with the colorful hoodie makes me feel like I’m a 14 as well. He’s pretty cocky to act like the dude he approached is lying. The guys good af
Yeah guys a stick tbf. Wants to change the shape of that putter tho. Go blade
Just sent yall a somewhat lengthy email lol, let me know if you get to read it!
The guy is a player.
definitely 4.7
The way the USGA handicap works, your average is about 1 in every 5 rounds you’ll cover your handicap….or lower. Too many variables to be consistent, which only the pros and very elite players like celebs or former pro athletes who can also afford trainers every day.
The main fault with the handicap system is that moves too much. Rather than best 8 from 20 It should be best 10 from 30 .
What's the chance that 2 guys are going to have krank drivers. I mean not too many people have them.
Carrying a 2 iron and also hitting it means dude can play. A 4 handicap, maybe not quite. But he'll still kick my ass on the course.
Absolutely is a 4.7, very solid fundamentals. I think even a 14 and 10 playing a scramble is very hard for a 5 index to beat. Often, 4 stacks of 10 handicaps fire -14+ in scrambles. You guys should play these matches best ball. Just saying.
