"except the we part". Priceless.
CZcams recommended your channel to me . I've never golfed in my life my but ended up staying for scuba Steve! Y'all have a great relationship
Thanks for stoppin' by!
enjoyed the father son relationship part
Your dad is the whole reason I watch you had good content but he puts it over the top
Like Slyvester Stallone in that movie!
That neck hair touch had me dying
Awesome project. Also- love the musical nod to Golfsidekick @11:50 ! LOL
greenley77 waddasong
Golf Sidekick oh I knew you were gonna have a nod to that song every golfer knows that song
You guys have done a great job, now it's time to expand the course and add 2 more holes lol. You should do a giveaway and pick a lucky winner to come up and play a round with you guys.
Showing them how to do it in the good old Midwest USA. Love your videos.
🙏
Fishers, IN here.
A stimp is 36in because it's 3ft. That way you can flip the stimp end over end and measure how far the ball rolls without the need of a tape measure. Most stimps have notches on side at 1ft and 2ft just incase it doesn't roll perfectly out at 3ft, 6ft and 9ft etc. Hope this helps 👍
This and the green roller video are maybe my favorite you’ve ever done. Laugh out loud moments 👍
Thanks, Nick!
Fantastic vlog, Randy! And the 75 cents (popcorn) reference at the very end was a hilarious ad-lib!
This should be a new segment...shop class with Scuba Steve!
I’ve never seen your channel. Thoroughly enjoyed this video for the golf but mostly for the father son relationship. I lost my dad in January and miss him more than anything. Enjoy every minute, fellas! Consider me subscribed!
Thanks, Kyle… sorry to hear about your pops. Appreciate you hanging out with us. 👍
you should do a: "how fast can we make the green and then play a round"- video
.
It would be a NIGHTMARE!
@@FriedEggsGolf but sick content
DO IT
At 7:03, by the grace of the music, you are suddenly transported into a Golf Sidekick video…
Whaddastimpmeter
There’s a ton of Vloggers and instagram influencers in the golf world. You give off the most genuine vibe. These videos are terrific and you and your dad are great!
Thanks, Kevin. That means a lot.
Very cool & informative vid. Great job fellas!
R.I.P. Magic Hills. I miss my midnight Friday night tee times.
10 is a great public course! Only a few Nashville public courses could boast that type of roll. Yall are living my dream! Lol
🙏
From working at a course to talking to other greens keepers. It should be between 9.5-10.....Unless you are preparing for tournament play. Which usually is between 10.5 to 12. That was my very first job! I worked at Marshall Country Club in Marshall Michigan! I have tbh, it was one of my all time favorite jobs! In I'm actually a certified Welder, was a certified Diesel Tech for a few years. I Trimmed trees for our Utility/Electricity company so I was a Professional Line Clearance arborist, climbing trees, running a bucket truck everything. Also was a Floor Care Specialist for a few years, stripping in waxing floors for factory offices break rooms, school flooring etc. In like I said, my favorite job. Which I think was the lowest paying job, was a Greens keeper! FYI: I loved golfing and was allowed to whenever I wanted, except on tournament days! If ur still reading this I apologize for rambling so much. I'm just a very detailed man! Lbvs!
🎵 They see me rollin’, They hatin’
Mowin’,
They tryin’ to get me rollin’ dirty
Tryin’ to get me rollin’ dirty....
You're like a mix between Will Hunting and Bob Villa. Very informative!
Scuba Steve = Tim Taylor
😂
You guys are awesome!! Loved watching the banter between father and son and doing this in you "shop" reminds me of the countless projects my dad and I did together. This made my day.
Thanks!!
I don't get it...how do u guys not have 3 million subscribers? Funny, entertaining, creative, educational...etc, it checks all the boxes. I'm glad I found this channel, glad I subscribed, and will share the hell out of your videos. Netflix will pretty much put a show out about anything, and 3/4ths of them are crap. I think your, "The Golf Shop" segments have the potential to be a successful series, like The Office, only in a pro shop or sporting goods store..i sure as hell would invest in it. I think its something people would watch and love. Not to mention require undergarment protection too..cause I about pissed myself laughing a few times. I wish y'all much success. Keep em coming.
Exactly this! :) Be awesome to see "The Golf Shop" as a mini series! So much creativity and true content creation on this channel! Makes me angry to see some channels with millions of subscribers doing literally nothing except "reacting to" someone else's content... :(
I've had great results dragging the sand in with a terra broom mow off then roll. Mower will need adjustment after.
Stimpmeters are great for a greens keeper to measure and compare multiple greens on one site. A lot of courses strive for consistency over speed. Speed is no good if one green is rolling a 12 and the next is rolling a 8. The other problem comes up when members start comparing greens from 2 different courses on 2 different days. Many variables come into play on a golf course case in point the results from this video. I would recommend taking readings of your green and logging them these readings can also show a lot about the health of the green over time. Fun videos great work.
Thanks!
So much fun. Please don't stop!
How about resting, is resting ok?
This channel is for all the turf-heads. I work at golf course in Gilbertsville PA. (Hickory Valley golf club) We have 2 separate courses . Only 8 guys take care of the 36 holes. So after a long long long day. I come home click on this channel and laugh my ass off. Thanks guys!! Keep the vidz coming and Scuba Steve Great hole in one. Maybe your boy will get one someday lol
We appreciate your hard work. 🙏
Awesome video. DIY stuff is so fun.
Thanks, James!
Randy how is you are the lest favorite person on your own channel ??? scuba steve ,Quinton, your kids and a stranger walking past in the background all would get more likes than yourself!!! its a gift man and i for one love you for it!!!!
It takes years of training.
The face your dad is making as you're explaining the stimpmeter reminds me of every time I have to sit through a lecture in physics class
🤣😂🤣
Just to give your dad a pro tip on topdressing. I have worked at a high end course here in Canada and u can spread that wet sand using a shovel onto the green. We do that sometimes in the spring when things are too soft for the topdresser. Do it on a sunny day and sand will dry in s short time. Like one hour or less. Then use a push broom to run accross the green to work it into topdressing holes
Thank will give it a try
Love the content! Hopefully with all this new equipment and knowledge we'll start to see a new green set up. Also would love, the idea to get one of those pontoons out in the middle of the pond and attempt to hit to it from all of the tee box's.
🙏
Been binging your videos and I have come to the conclusion that I absolutely love this channel. My dad and I have been working a green in our backyard for nearly 10 years, but it's far from you and your pappas green. I will definitely show him some of these videos with hopes of reigniting the excitement! Your family relationship is hilariously adorable. Looks like a great time all the time! Last but not least I HAVE to mention how grateful I am to have finally found someone who can write an awesome golf rap. Literally bumping "I Won The Masters" atm. You are truly a jack of all trades, master of many. Thanks for sharing all these awesome videos and raps with us!
I love it when you try to being logical with a man that brought an "extra" clean ball to the putting green, so he could then clean the dirty ball!
Like teaching long division to a hamster.
This may have been about making and using a stimpmeter to find out what the Green played at, but the entertainment meter has and is as always at 100!
🙏
I agree 9-10 is the sweet spot for green speed, although green speed and green slope have to be considered together! A 10 on a severely sloping green could get dicey. Great video!
A 10 is perfect in my book. Not too slow and not too fast. Great job guys!
👍
You guys need a golf science show.....this is hilarious.
Love seeing a Father and Son both be so passionate about something. Great stuff guys!
The original was probably a yard stick which explains 36"
THAT WAS PRETTY COOL!! NICE TO HAVE SOMETHING TO DO WITH YOUR DAD THAT YOUR BOTH PASSIONATE ABOUT!
Golfsidekick music on Fried Eggs Golf??? My 2 favorite channels are merging!
Yo Randito. Hope all is well. I worked on a top notch course for a few seasons, and we never top dressed prior to rolling. Top dressing was only done when maintenance was performed, i.e. verticuts, punching holes, or spot fixes. I know you're probably getting all kinds of opinions on this. Good luck, sir.
Thanks!
We give so much credit to Scuba Steve but he's the Kramer to your Seinfeld. You set him up constantly and he never misses the opportunity make us laugh. Thank you both for sharing.
So when are we going to see a floating green, like that one in Idaho?
Float that pontoon boat out there and stick a flag on it.
You guys could put a small plumb bob at the end of the stimp meter with a mark for 20 degrees. That way it creates it's own level.
Burn Luddite... burn. :(
😃😃😃
Since you made your own course its makes perfect sense you make your own stimpmeter. Well done guys, and oh yeah 120 dollars, its probably all for the patent.
💸
Man that's the best!!! Your dad loves this! Great video.
Thanks, Morris!
Ramey’s Homework Part 2: Golf project with you and your Dad just working together to make something golf related.
Like you’re on a cooking show. 🤣
I’ve never even touched a golf club in my life and I have no intention of doing it. But I watch every darn episode. WWHHYYYYYY
Because you’re a sick sick man.
The best golf channel out there, I love these vids 👍
I wish you guys posted more often. I love all your videos. Can’t wait for the next one.
top work guys.....
🙏
My course, South Bend Country Club, rolls around a 12. Downhill putts are insane.
Great vlog fellas, love your videos scuba Steve is brilliant 👌🏌️♂️👍
Thanks, Paul!
Loved this video. Even lead something. Great experiment guys. Scuba Steve does great work for he’s green.
I made a stimp question on the last video. Thanks guys. Very cool. Keep up the good content. Scooba is my hero.
Thank you, Joe!
If you guys want a little tip to get even more speed. Mow and roll the same day. When you roll make sure you roll really slow and that will help speed them up. The golf course I work at we mow everyday and roll about four times a week and our greens read about an 11 everyday!
Thanks!
Really enjoyed it guys! 👍🏻
🙏
Love your channel
Awesome! somewhere between Forged in Fire and Mythbuster + golf!
🙏
Great video lads and well done for making your own stimp reader, if you dewy cut go up and down the same strip you will pick up speed then roll it.
Great video! Keep them coming
Thanks, Douglas!
I sure like that old bastard. He is cool as shit. That’s how I want to be when I’m his age
I’m not that old... 😏
Great video Randy. Love your videos
Great Vlog learned something new. Cheers Randy & Scuba Steve
🍻
Great video Randy and Scuba Steve! Golf & Science! p.s. paint that stimpmeter your Vikings colors 😜👍
I LEARNED HOW A STIMPMETER WORKS TODAY , AND MORE IMPORTANT WHAT THE DAMN THING LOOKS LIKE! YOU GUYS ARE WONDERFUL!LOVE THE CHANNEL DUDE!!!!!
the private club i work at roll around 10.5-11 on the stimp
Please more videos like this. I love seeing this part of golf. Being that I am a bit of a landscape and DIY nut who just happens to golf. This stuff is great. Also, built m own stimpmeter to keep in the bag.....Hhahaha No seriously you should do a whole video series on the building of the "back 9" including the par 4. I have some property and would love to do something like this.
Videos of you and your dad are my favorite
Awesome Randy. Question for ya, is managing a green making you a better putter? Understanding the process, the grain direction, water flow, sanding, rolling, etc?
My dad is the primary greenskeeper... and yes, he is putting the best he's ever putted.
I LOVE Your "Golf Stupidity".
And you have inspired Me to pursue my very own take on "Golf Stupidity".
Mine isn't building & tending like You Guys, it's ermmmmm DIFFERENT !
Nice job guys, great video.
I work at a golf course, we verti cut on average every other week. Sometimes more sometimes less just depends on the grow season. Anyways, may wanna consider it. Great videos btw
Thanks for the tip, appreciate it!
As a fellow neck hair guy playing golf I appreciated this video a lot. Tank tops for life!
Let it flow.
having a device release the ball is potentially more consistent because of the consistent friction and release parameters (so to speak). Your finger could be sticky and pull the ball or add spin to it. Just chalk your finger or wear a cloth glove.
RANDY - The Golf Pride t-shirt is sick!!! Rare product you don't see it very often.
Dad's a stud muffin
🤦♂️
Best green in Whitley County, without a doubt!
Good job you blokes ⛳️🏌🏼🍻🍻
Cheers!
Best golf channel on the internet.
🙏
The width of the track rails should be 1/2" any difference may affect ball speed.
Interesting stuff guys!
🙏
Qualified GreenKeeper here, we used to make all our own stimpmeters. You done a great job
Thanks, Milo!
This vid is class. Love this stuff. Would be so interesting to do further maths on it and see how accurate those readings are!
wow. i learned a lot. got a putting mat but the real green in my course is crazy fast, my practice is almost useless
so good
🎵SO GOOD SO GOOD🎵
I would be curious to see how your stimpmeter matched up against one at a local course. You could take your rig to test. Because $4 for a post and a little sweat of a DIY project is a lot more fun. Love your content
Thanks, Daemon!
Great video, I think this will get a lot of views like your green roller one. I think Scuba Steve is due to be sheared for the summer, though!
💇🏻♂️
Great video thanks for sharing. I wonder how much sand contributes to the speed.
Randy looks like a magician explaining how the girl gets sawed in half to ScubaS
😂
Guys, you probably don't know but those mowers are designed to cut best at wide open throttle. It takes some getting used to at first (you feel like you're almost jogging) but you'll cut straighter and it will cut better as well.
I’ll give it a try
@@scubastevesmith7108 You'll need a few tries. At first it feels like you can't do it. The turns are tough!
“Excalibur”. LOL
Measure all 4 ways!
I have some suggestions. I worked on a few golf courses under different superintendents.You should brush the sand in then water it. Wait until the next day or later to run the roller after a mow. Brushing the sand in can damage the blades so you can try just watering the sand in.
But how sad is it that I would sit here and watch a video on a homemade stimpmeter !!!??? Just kidding It was actually very interesting. Plus Scuba Steve was there with his priceless commentary. Too many quotes to mention here. Keep'em coming Randy.
🙏
Awesome video!
Thanks, Paul.
Interesting stuff. I wonder what the stimpmeter reading would be on my practice carpet at home compared to down at my local club greens. I read somewhere stimp readings for Augusta are up around 15? That might be rubbish though? Great vid, entertaining as usual! Thanks.
Thanks!
Randy, very informative episode, thanks!
it has been over a year since you did a fan mail video. Can you do a new one soon? They are truly entertaining.
Who should we write to?
Fried Eggs Golf write to Matt Kuchar.
😬
love it. pops look like the defensive coordinator from the adam sandler movie "water boy"
