00:00And back to the Oklahoma connection here a little bit, because there's another PGA Tour player I want to talk
00:05about, and that's Chris Gotterup.
00:07He's a player that played at Rutgers for four years, transferred over to Oklahoma for his last year.
00:13And he's come on this podcast, Ryder, and he's talked about his experience at Oklahoma and the wind, how much
00:18it helped him, and then, of course, being coach under Ryan Hibble.
00:22But one comparison I want to make from Chris Gotterup to you, and it's not that Chris Gotterup's a linebacker
00:28and you're not.
00:29But the comparison I want to make is that you both, to me, are left aimers.
00:33Chris Gotterup is a guy that I think is an ultra left aimer.
00:37I don't think anybody aims quite as left as he does.
00:40But I watch your setup, and you pretty much will stand up and to the left.
00:45Is that something that you've always done, or is this kind of a technique that has developed over time to
00:50kind of help you with your more consistent ball striking?
00:53Yeah, I think it's definitely developed over time.
00:58And for just me being more consistent.
01:01So I came to college, and I was kind of a drawler of the golf ball.
01:05Well, I say I was kind of.
01:06I was the drawler of the golf ball.
01:08You're slinging it.
01:09Yeah.
01:11When I had bad days, I would have a heavy left miss.
01:15And I hated the heavy left miss.
01:17And so I was like, all right, this is what I need to do off the tee.
01:19Like, I cannot miss this ball left off the tee.
01:22Because if I miss the ball left off the tee, then I'm in shambles.
01:25So I started, like, kind of hitting big – or not big cuts, but just cuts.
01:32And I don't know.
01:33My feet just kind of, like, my feet get really left.
01:36And my face, like, I don't ever really watch my swing.
01:39I'm someone that's not technical.
01:40Like, I've never really had a coach.
01:42I've never really – like, I don't watch my swing a lot.
01:46As long as it feels good and it goes straight, I'm good with it.
01:48But, yeah, my feet just get left.
01:51And now it kind of just allows me to open up and be able to feel like I'm not going
01:56to miss it left.
01:57Yeah.
01:58I don't know.
01:59But, yeah, it's definitely a technique that happened over time.
02:04It's an Oklahoma thing, man.
02:05It's different for sure.
