i’ been getting dirty money Jordan Bing Penny while I’m flipping these birding [Music] on what is going on DJ Nation Kenny Kim here bringing you another fantasy G degenerate podcast this week for some shitty ass tournament I already forgot about That’s How The Season’s [ __ ] going with right now Bon what [ __ ] tournament is this again I wanted to say the 3M but I think it’s the rocket Rock and mortgage yes the Rock and mortgage as usual I here with everybody’s FV in South African Byron lindu Byron what’s up my friend Kenny trying to stay in the middle of my box here for producer Mike and trying to just trying to get through this week man just looking forward to not Scotty sheffler and trying to just figure out where the hell we going we got some some strange characters the top five guys we got some fun stuff to check out about lots of fun as usual we are sponsored by Underdog fantasy go to Underdog fantasy right now use promo code Mayo get a deposit match up to $250 it seems like every time I don’t post my Underdog [ __ ] now it wins because I hit it again in round four when I did not it’s your round fours it’s the round fours it’s weird I mean I hit that again this past week uh I have to say like I was not looking forward to The Travelers um you know it being the last designated event no cut but God damn it did Sunday [ __ ] delivered dude ah I mean this is exactly what the [ __ ] PG and tour wanted when they went with no cut and a bunch of these top guys playing in these events because [ __ ] that leaderboard was sick uh you had you know Tom up there all week Scotty of course F out Xander was up there Klay was up there um I’m missing some heads I mean and you even had like the other riffery guys who Colin my boy Colin moreal was up there oh yeah he was uh you got Pon doing his thing once again getting up there I mean Cameron young 59 Haron uh cam young uh I I mean everything you wanted on Saturday and Sunday you got um I did not think I mean I did not think I was going to be as entertained as I was especially coming off basically you know us open hangover because that was one of the best US Open we seen in a long time and I was like oh my God we got to go to another another another signature event fck like I mean it could have had to do with the fact that you know I had a Tony outright I had a uh Tom outright I had sunj God cash G cornerstones uh you know what I’m saying so uh you know overall it was a good week and I you know that could also play into the part of why I was still enthralled uh about the week but like that final round going down like Tom and and and sheffler with everybody else fading basically on the last six holes uh it was just them two because I mean why at one point in the bank nine there was four guys tied for Lee uh and then all of them sort of [ __ ] the bed except Tom and except pres Scotti uh feno had the outright lead I think at 12 or 13 uh and I don’t even I think you ended up finishing fifth got me the place the full place thank you Tony I appreciate that Tom I wish you won uh but you got me the place too all right so I’ll take a couple of placement wins uh in a week like that and the event itself like like the shot that Tom hit on 18 in regulation like for some reason I felt like he was going to hit a good shot like you know when you’re when you’re when most people are in that situation against Scotty and I don’t know how true this is but it’s just something what I feel a lot of people tend to [ __ ] the bet when they see Scotty up there on the leaderboard and trying to catch up do what ever they they they they go against their game um now uh and then but when Tom was warming up for that for that approach on 18 like he’s gonna stick this [ __ ] close I I just felt it I didn’t feel like that normal feeling of any other golfer in that situation like oh [ __ ] Scotty uh you know he’s just they gotta go against Scotty they’re gonna [ __ ] I’m such a Savage though you know president’s cups the shrine is like when he’s in contention dude that guy nuts the hell up and does not m fun to watch uh yes he’s slow a little slow but you know what he was really slow on Sunday I could give a pass for guys who are 22 years old who is trying to still figure out themselves on the golf course as a pro because you know this is something new that he’s been doing where he’s been taking more time and I feel like it wasn’t that big of a deal the first three days he took a lot of time on Sunday uh he was very very deliberate uh now I don’t know if he’s smart enough to do that because he was paired with Scotty because he played a lot quicker Saturday than he did on Sunday now he still wasn’t fast but he played quicker than he did on Sunday so in my head I’m thinking is he this gamesmanship is he smart enough to to use gamesmanship in this situation being Scotty’s friend like best friend almost right and he he has to know Scotty’s ins and outs um on a golf course because they play together every week right at home um and so did he do that [ __ ] on purpose to play slower than normal because he knew he was going up against Scotty in his group I don’t know I don’t know he’s 22 years old so I don’t I I don’t know if he had that thought in his head or if it was just the fact that he was in contention for the first time in a long time in the final group um of a tournament so he made play himself play even slower I don’t know we we we will probably never know no um but he definitely played faster Saturday um from the league I watched all weekend um and he played faster on Saturday it really wasn’t an issue I’ve been on Tom Kenny for a while like I was on him at the RBC I was on at the US Open and he was cruising the first three rounds dominating The Strokes SC categories and then the Sundays were just these these cluster [ __ ] of MPS inside four feet and I think that’s potentially might what he might have decided it’s like we got to fix something up here because that’s why I got off of him because I was like this guy doesn’t follow through on his good performances now he slowed it down a bit maybe that’s what he needed to do to keep himself in the groove and just all right I’m getting a little fast inside my brain maybe I chill it out a physical like methodical perspective and then just kind of go from there if it if it helps get Scotty a little Restless then then so be it you know then I’m I’m cool for that because he baby is Scotty’s little brother let’s be honest they got the same birthday I mean his his Scotty’s parents were like congratulating Tom and love you this love you so proud of you like how that [ __ ] you know like I think what Matt was saying uh Matt Veni was saying something about Tom needs to turn into a Savage and like quit being buddy buddy I think that’s like Tom superpowers is like this little puppy do you know [ __ ] in boots from from Shrek where you just like you know like the cute little the cat eyes the [ __ ] eyes and then the next thing off you go you just you know just kick some ass with the swords and and Boots there so I think that’s what Tom Kim’s situation is and it’s going to be secret power now yeah I I that shot on 18 I I audibly like yelled and screamed like I thought that was going in I mean it was so sick uh a super fun watch uh I mean I had a great time watching the event and I didn’t think I would uh and I think they have to PJ has to be happy with how um it ended their Signature Events because this is exactly what they wanted they want this leaderboard week in and week out now let’s talk about the Signature Events I mean obviously we don’t like the cut right but the reason why they’re we want to cut we don’t like the no cut right and so obviously they did this because they want all the best players to play on the weekend um for sponsors for other reasons that’s what they want um now I was thinking one one little example that I thought maybe I don’t know uh that if you’re in the top 10 in the FedEx Cup rankings in the signature event um you can’t get cut make it on make it like 90 golfers to 40 to 50 and then the people that are in the top 10 don’t count against the cut that’s genius I mean okay I mean like then you still get like a half the field cut sort of but you still get to keep the best players in the world and then it gives people more incentive to be inside the top 10 of the FedEx Cup so it makes that FedEx Cup standings like really important in [ __ ] January right like you know in in in in in February it’ll be important because if you’re in the top 10 in that FedEx Cup standings you know you you you you cannot get cut from these Signature Events look they’re trying all types of new [ __ ] right there’s I understand where the PJ tour is coming from they want they have the sponsors want it you know and they’re losing sponsors they don’t want a week where like Rory and Allen and X and Scotty well Scotty not gonna what yeah have these top dogs miss the cut so you just make it where the top 10 in the FED come standings at the time of the event no they don’t get cut they don’t count against the cup that would be a suggestion on my end because they’re not going to change this system it’s still going to be Signature Events we want Cuts but they want the best players in the world to always play the weekend I think that this could fix it and it adds like another Nuance to uh the rankings and like the FedEx Cup standings and no one gives a [ __ ] about the FedEx Cup till after the Open Championship really is over right like no one no this is awesome this is a great idea dude like that that is the way I think it should be fixed and then you could almost do like the rest of the guys versus those top 10 dudes yeah like when it comes to DFS it puts a wrinkle at DFS but the top 10 in the FedEx Cup standards probably going to be like your inside the top 15 highest price guys so you can’t just play all of them right right uh you know you can’t play all of them it adds a little extra thing like okay how many these no cut guys am I going to put in my lineup like is it worth going in that direction and and rostering these guys and going Superstars and scrubs or can I go different from the field and only play maybe one or two of those guys and then take the risk on the rest and I’ll be completely different from the field you know I I think he could be helpful in every single aspect uh that we you know go about golf watching um and from our end the sponsors from the PGA tourah and the players they should probably still be happy about because you know it’s those top guys that want this [ __ ] to happen right they want to make that money well you be in the top 10 on the Fed Cup standings you’re top guy right I think that’s the way to fix it do you see any other way to fix the the signature Signature Events yeah I think what you were saying is interesting what I was thinking about that is you could almost give the you know like in cricket you have a power play you don’t know this in cricket but like in specific Sports there’s they got power plays in cricket yeah dude like you have to a certain you have to have a a certain amount of people inside a specific Circle closer to the batsman so there’s more people closer so you hit over them and there’s only two guys outside of the circle which is about half the half the oval right that they play it so the less people out there the less chance you can get caught out because once you’re out out you’re out forever you know in cricket it’s not like baseball you come back in again so you you’re really taking a chance and then you can score more runs during that time so guys are more aggressive I think in a signature event providing some sort of an option like that where a a you can use a certain Dr like I know it’s super gimmicky but like almost doing like if you choose to be the no cut person you take 10% off the top of your salary or your or your payout for that week you’re guaranteeing money but you’re not getting all of it because I think the other people will bitching about the top 10 guys but also at the same time Rory will say play better and speaking about Rory my my biggest issue with this is the designated events Signature Events after a major it’s like I’m more excited about the rocket mortgage this week than I was last week it was just like such a granted it was the best major ever but like not ever but you know what I’m saying and it’s just the the anticipation of a big event like this after such a major situation is just it loses its touch you know it needs to be leading up to the majors I understand what you’re saying but and from like a Content people from guys like us yes uh that would make it better but like I think the pach wants to you know ride the momentum is what I think that they want to do and I think that that plus the guys wanting to play all the Signature Events bunched up so they have four or five weeks off that they could have I think that’s something that that that’s there but they also you know I don’t when it R doesn’t miss this thing if it’s full the Mages yeah he doesn’t I understand that they they’ve already changed that rule because they are going to allow alternates starting next season so we won’t have Chris GD teting off by himself but it’s still Rory though he’s not there you know like that’s the thing he’s the top 10 guy that you want there has he’s paying about he’s paying at least $3 million I think it’s a fine for the second one that you miss so it’s not like he doesn’t give a [ __ ] yeah I mean that’s not like Chum Chan d you I don’t know if that’s the exact amount but it’s like millions of dollars for the fine for the second one you miss and I get why the PJ wants to do it back to back after a major because they want to ride that momentum I guarantee you if we look at the ratings for for Sunday I bet you they’ll be pretty good um because you have the casuals out there riding that momentum I bet you the live numbers this week we’re probably one of the best that they’re going to have right because they want to they want to take that momentum and and and keep it going at least for another week for the casuals so I I understand that I you look I mean when it’s scheduled it’s scheduled that’s not the big thing I I think we just need to change in how the Cure events are are are cut like we need to cut and I think that we need um some but again we need to have the PJ tours back because they want all the top players to make it the weekend just top if you’re a top 10 in the atics cup you’re exempt from being cut from Signature Events it’s good I think I think that’s that’s a perfect literal wrinkle that you can have and that adds a lot of drama right you know what I’m saying like you’re going into a signature event right and you’re in 11th place right you’re like [ __ ] look I I gotta I gotta get in that [ __ ] top 10 so I don’t have to worry about you know getting cut you can add those little things to it I don’t know and it’ll make like the FedEx Cup rankings you know more look at yeah at the beginning of the Season you know I mean when people break out the fness Cup rankings in like January like you know the Riviera people like what the [ __ ] the [ __ ] cares right you but now it’s something to look at well [ __ ] who’s in the [ __ ] top 10 right I don’t that’s just my thoughts on it that’s just my thoughts uh overall uh good week for me um Cash Cash lineup hit barely uh you know I had Tom as a Cornerstone so of course uh had sunj uh in my cash lineup Harmon as another Cornerstone so I had three guys in the top 10 uh in my cash lineup uh so that was a win not as easy as I thought it was basically on the faking border but I still pulled through um uh hit the two um eways Tom of course didn’t come through with the win that would have been really nice but that was eway hit number 21 and number 22 of 2004 24 not even last fall just starting from the century uh so yeah if you can get your hands on an a book that has each way betting I don’t see why you would do I I well don’t it makes you want you it makes you want to really ride your bicycle off a cliff in the middle of Iowa when Kari CA was T6 heading into a Sunday and then Shanks one out of bounds decides to miss every part Under the Sun I went from Gaining $7 on the week to losing 30 two on my breaking 100 article because Xander shot a 70 he shoots a 69 around TPC River Highlands okay this is the world number two call shot even par and I needed him to finish top 10 didn’t and I was fuming dude I I did an emergency like Sprint session because I was like you know when you don’t wear your heart rate monitor because you don’t want to see what your heart rate’s going to get get up to on a bicycle because that’s what [ __ ] Xander shofy did to me anyway yeah I’m done that all well here’s the thing it’s it’s not like I won a lot of money I won $580 on draft kicks like that was my it’s money GRE I faded Scotty so that was a Scotty shf for fade and I won money I won $580 there I won like 40 bucks on Underdog for the week because I lost everything until Sunday and then I uh I hit the two eways for like that was like $490 I bet 350 so I made 140 bucks on the betting car so I need return on chicken wings return I did I did let’s speak about this so okay all right so Tambo Tambo um oh speaking of Tamba I do want to say he is giving away $50,000 possibly possibly $50,000 our boy tampo is

pounds now right no I wouldn’t back a such because prior to weighing in on Saturday I hadn’t gone to the diaper ker that I went to on Saturday so I went backwards a bit but you know what I’ll take what I am I’m like 17 16 well here’s the thing like like I took a picture I took a a screenshot of you in the first podcast we did together uh at the Heritage uh and then I took a picture of you last week uh and and the physical transformation like your face is so much skinnier now you definitely look happier when you’re a fat uh you know what I’m saying which I can understand when you’re trans has been great now for me I’ve been struggling okay I I I’m still not I’m like I’ve gained back a little bit I’m like at around 250 I started 262.50 daily routine um like I I don’t even dread it like I sort of like look forward to it um I you know once one reason is because it’s it’s an hour of work that I get off because my boss lets me walk around the mall uh take a couple of laps around the mall instead of my lunch break so it usually takes about 45 minutes and then I’ll grab like a quick lunch so I could take an hour off work because it is so so that makes it easier and then plus now when I get home uh you know last was tough I had to wait till like 7 7:30 was like 100 deges every day but uh you know I’ve been walking a couple two and a half miles when I get home as well so you know every day so I’m trying to break 10,000 steps every day and about five miles of walking every day so far today I’ve gone uh I did a little extra other things that I’ve been doing like anytime I go somewhere like even when I’ve go to work I park at the farthest [ __ ] parking spot away let’s go possible right farthest [ __ ] it’s it’s literally like a third of a mile W from where I park at work now to getting into work and that’s one way so that’s almost two-thirds of a mile just walking to my car oh yeah yeah so like I’ve been doing that any time I go like grocery shopping and you know anytime I’m going somewhere I’m parking as far away from the entrance as possible uh the little things like that have been helping me see the exercise [ __ ] I feel comfortable with I’m I’m down it’s six to seven days a week now it’s getting there my problem is the calorie deficit before you get into that Kenny I just want to say congrats dude like that is that’s awesome I’m so excited for you that you’ve done that you know like I feel the same way with like looking forward to it you know that’s the best part about being fit and exercise well I have to say like I said I’ve said this before but I’ve done this before but I’ve never it’s never stuck it it sticks this time because I put it out on social media you know sto being fat my #out there uh so I feel obligated to you know do this [ __ ] and like not like gain be like Kenny what the [ __ ] are you doing um so if you’re obligated to do it but also everyone out there giving me support Byron you doing it um my followers on X you know get every time I post something about it they’re always so supportive so uplifting so motivational that it just makes it a lot easier so if you guys have been doing that for me I really appreciate it and I hope you guys keep on doing it because it really is motivating me to continue doing this stopping fat [ __ ] right yeah but here’s my problem I can’t like stop eating like I love food okay like and it’s different for me because like you know I I’ve worked in restaurant industry for 20 years and the last 10 years was fine dining like I got a taste of like like food like like you know and like and Hy delicious food and like tasty delicious food is bad for you it’s just plain and simple like if it’s delicious it’s probably gonna kill you more than likely right I mean it [ __ ] sucks I mean it’s goddamn it’s a goddamn joke is really what it [ __ ] comes down to because everything is so [ __ ] delicious and I can’t eat that [ __ ] anymore but occasionally I still do it’s like four days of the week I’m pretty good right four to five days it’s the other two to three days where I just go insane like temporarily insane because like I went to the doctor on Thursday or was it Friday it was either Thursday or Friday and like well my blood tests came back and they were like the best it’s been uh you know since I’ve been to the doctor I started going after my stroke a couple years ago on the can yeah yeah and so it was the best my numbers have been blah blah blah go reward myself so what did I do I think I had like 24 chicken wings Korean barbecue like yeah it’s just hard for me to like to not eat like deliciously good food but just stop doing it in abundance you know like smash that stuff in do 12 you know just keep like knocking it in half like and then text me before that and say by I’m about to do what I do and I’ll tell you Kenny you fat [ __ ] like you don’t need 24 you need 12 let’s go see see that’s why I haven’t been losing as much weight is because still have those two or three like there’ll be one day a week where I eat like 8,000 calories like literally like 8,000 calories in a day like there’ll be like four or five days a week where I eat like 1,800 right and then there’ll be like one day where I eat like 3,000 and then there’ll be one day where I eat like 8,000 like in a day and like it’s avoiding that one day and I’m getting better at like the night cravings because I someone suggested that fall asleep earlier I’ve actually been doing that um I’ve been sleeping a little bit earlier I’ve been like basically passing out you know I’ve been eating in edible and then I’ll like smoke a vape head like and get like extra hot and then by like 9:30 I’m asleep on my couch by 10 I get up and go to bed uh and so that that keeps like those 10 o’clock meals which I am known for gone and so this past week have been very good at that I haven’t had that late night meal but this weekend of course you know I just [ __ ] go on out order to your house or do you like go and buy it no I order that [ __ ] I don’t need you delete delete those apps like get that app deleted off your phone like if you’re doing Grubb or whatever please sponsor the show I’ll I’ll buy the Grubb for whoever but not Kenny you know like what I’m saying like we need to get that I think last year I spent 13 thou 14,000 on Huber eats yeah last year yeah I know Kenny that’s the problem delete those things delete those apps and see what happens then you got to like all right now I got to De [ __ ] go you’ll prep your [ __ ] let’s go like you this is it takes time and energy to do this let’s do it right bro you’re going to feel so goddamn good when if you guys have any advice on how don’t like not eat as much I I because I mean like I I I can’t help it and it’s usually just like one or two days a week like during the week I’m fine it’s the weekends and then you add like some booze to it and you know and then you add whatever and then it becomes like this whole where I’m guzzling yeah know four times the the the amount that I should daily intake of calories in a day and so I I just delete it on Fridays and call it a day the weekend delete those apps on Friday reload them up on Monday maybe I don’t know man I I gotta figure one of them or something yeah I gotta figure something we’ll see how it go but I mean how’s your Trek going I mean like do your is your wife helping you is she cooking you like better meals like what’s the my wife I don’t I guess it’s because I don’t see my wife I don’t know because she’s a softball coach so she’s out and about all the time and what I’ve just been doing that sounds like that sounds like the type of marriage that I would like to be she’s amazing one way just like see her unless you need her perfect to me and then she comes home and brings home all the allergies from the softball field so I’ll be the first time I see her I starts I’m almost becoming allergic to her but we you know that’s neither here nor there but just I’ve just got rid of all the crap I it all you know like right before the the original show like my mom shows up with South African candy I’ve just got all of these chocolates I’ll eat three chocolates in one day like a full candy bar you know like I can do the same thing with you Cy but I’ve just tried my best and um getting through that first week is the hardest and then your Cravings disappear a little bit you know and I don’t eat breakfast I just eat lunch and dinner and then when I’m done with that I’m done with that and off I go you know get on my bicycle as well like I’ve been exercising hard on the bicycle get that heart rate way up you know like really ramping it up and and helping out with that so K yeah so today try inter intermittent fasting have you I have I have okay so so what I do intermittent fasting the days I do intermittent fasting are the days where it’s nearly impossible for me not to have a 10 pm snack is what I’ve noticed days so I I do that maybe about three days a week I did I stopped what is your what is your schedule like what when do you fast from to when do you do uh so when I when I get up at8 so from the last thing I’ll eat is like at 8:00 at night and I won’t eat again until like 8:00 at night the next day it’ll basically be like a 24hour fast that’s a long that’s long dude you know like maybe just do 16 you know where you just knock out give yourself a lunch and for you almost if possible you want to do breakfast and lunch leave the leave the crap in the in the evenings alone and then let’s see what happens you know and try to do it five five days a week and then on the weekends maybe you can [ __ ] around a you know so um I think I have to stop [ __ ] around around a bit I think that’s what I think that’s what’s that’s what’s [ __ ] me up yeah so all right so if you guys out there got some hints like I here’s the thing like we a couple weeks ago you know with the late night snacking people were like hummus and like sugar snappies whoever did that I that’s great I’ve been doing hummus and sugar snappies like cherries blueberries stuff like that as like a late night stack so haven’t been I don’t think I’ve called Uber Eats after I’ve had dinner in over a week um um so so that’s better um it’s just those crazy days like I like I’ll lose like six pounds during the week and gain five back on the weekends yeah so I I got figure something out yeah anyways you know there’s time code so you guys can skip this [ __ ] if you like so that’s the great thing about the show Mike make sure you put this uh being stop being stop being fat segment on the time code that people just don’t want to hear about our personal life and us trying to stop being fat but hey I once again I do appreciate everyone supporting me and uh and Byron in this this is also encouragement to you if you’re a little fatty on the couch like we’ve been go ahead and just this is Eight Mile week you know it’s Eminem week it’s the it’s in Mich it’s Michigan Detroit let’s freaking go and walk you eight miles this week however you get it done get eight miles in let’s go I’m doing eight Kenny obviously does more than that I’m doing five miles a day basic I’m doing let’s go so so I mean if my fat ass can do this [ __ ] you can do this [ __ ] too exactly um so basically that’s what it comes down to all right so before we move on let’s have a word from our sponsor Underdog fantasy is the easiest place to play fantasy sports it’s also the fastest growing fantasy app in the industry I

finishing positions ah They just added the birdies are better uh right now but you know what I already put mine in so we’re doing higher and lower on score because that’s all they had at the time so here we go yeah which is fine which is fine was what we’re doing so my Underdog it can play for this week oh and so of course was it last week where I think Camy young oh that was the second round that was the second round where Camy young basically I had cam young to have less than five and a half birdies and he made the 25-footer on Friday and then and then hit on 18 to get his six birdie and then he went on sun on Saturday and shot 59 and played decent on Sunday till he fell apart of course on the back nine so basically all it took for cam young to come back and be back was for me to bet him [ __ ] under on on on birdies day but we move on we move on luckily um so my pick this week it’s gonna be Maverick mcney one of my favorite plays this week lower than 68 and a half Strokes Cameron young I don’t believe in you 60 higher than 67 and a half strokes and then Keith Mitchell killer Keith lower than 68 and a half Strokes he’s gained like I think Keith has gained Strokes ball striking in like 17 straight events yeah or some [ __ ] like that it’s pretty wild so so once again MRE McNeely lower than 68 and a half Strokes cam young higher than 67 and a half Strokes Keith Mitchell lower than 68 and a half Strokes pay 6.3 times let’s go I love it I think you know Keith Mitchell’s Strokes gained in this field 36th and 4 first Friday and Thursdays then it jumps into the 80s and 90s for rounds three and four so you’ve got if you’re in the mood for Keith Mitchell jump into him early before the weekend gets there so I’ve got a similar situation where I went to 6.3 return here by going two lower and one Higher the two lowers are Davis Thompson and Taylor Moore these two guys around this venue they just know what they’re up to you know like 68 and a half Strokes lower for both of them Davis Thompson Taylor Moore and then Ben Griffin just coming off of surgery is higher than 68 a half the guy was seeing those little fuzzies right before you have a migraine he’s still seeing them post surgery and I think he’s just had the surgery now so prior of the surgery I wasn’t too concerned but post surgery things aren’t going to be okay for him and and round one’s not necessarily his best round either so I’m going to go higher than 68 and a half Strokes for Ben Griffin who’s basically one of the four Blind Mice now so it’s Taylor Moore lower than 682 Davis Thompson lower than 68 A2 and Ben Griff higher than 68 and a half Strokes for 6.3 return there all right that sounds great let’s move on to our unsponsored betting section segment uh once again if you’d like to sponsor our betting segment hit up our DMS um all right so why don’t you go ahead and list out your outrights there first my friend I will do that for you Kenny because I’ve got some fun ones I’m going to go ahead and play a batia and these are all with five places each way over at B 365 and I’m going with him at 22 to1 I mean the guy was just jamming out last week and he’s driving the ball great he’s putting the ball well I think you know we’ve seen him go low on these kind of courses too so he’s he’s doing some good stuff after kind of losing momentum after his win at the Valero and then I’m going to go with Taylor pendrith I jumped in on a 40 there early that seems to have drifted into the 33s but Taylor pendrith is is rankings for all the courses he’s played this is the second best course that Taylor p plays out of his personal he gains the mo second most Strokes at this golf course personally and then I’m going to go with Michael thornson who is not to be confused with thorb Allison who’s also in the same a rign so Michael thoron at 66 this guy was the the the guy that’s the next ludvig right he just came out of college just got his PJ card last week and made his professional debut so he’s back at a golf course is he a new ludig or is it ship well he’s he’s boy Shipley is ball you know what the funny thing is I couldn’t find any Shipley bets they they didn’t have him on the on the on the outr I saw him it was like I saw him I think I saw him at like a at for 12 places he was 100 one yes I’ve seen it on odd Checker but I couldn’t find it on my books so maybe it’s out there because I want to bet him I but what I’m saying is he’s the new guy that he got the the pgu right that’s how he that’s basically what I’m saying and he’s also got T and tons of and all that jazz also a foreigner he’s not an American you know like yeah we’ll get over that yeah 6061 let’s go and then we’re going to get into the higher higher Stakes here and 100 to1 Alejandro tosy if you just think about someone that just munches it off the tea can get really spicy and good you know on the corn fairy tour that guy could go deep I think we’re going have to see guys go really really deep this week and then Jake nap finding himself what number did you get for to 100 100 100 to1 and that’s including the placing so you’ve got a 25 to1 top five for toasty you know in that market there because I do the five places for the eways and that seems how that’s been working out for me and then the same thing Jake dap I’ve gone to these guys that have got absolute nukes of the tea that can still kind of keep keep themsel in the mix to’s down to 80 so that’s some nice some nice closing line value unfortunately for myself but I’d still probably go there at 80 you know I think that’s a solid number for toasty and then Jake knap as well at about 100 to one so you think about nap you know on these big bomber courses he can just unleash it like you just see his drives around TPC TPC Highlands it’s like 335 340 like the guy just completely Just Hits it so far and we can putt he can euse Zs let’s go I’m all for him doing his thing so those are my four my Five Guys so far and um we’ll see how they go so I got four main bets and four long shots yes so my four main bets I’m going to start with Maverick M 25 to one with eight places um again the guy I I like him we’ll talk about him a bunch when it comes down to it he’s one of my cash game cornerstones a guy who could just punish the ball off the tee and he could putt well it’s a pretty good combination um at this course so Maverick M Neely 25 to1 pendrith for all the reasons you said I got 30 to1 with eight places uh Chris Kirk maybe a little bit out there uh a guy who proven winner won the this year he’s I think he’s done well at this event before in the past he’s 40 to one with eight places then I got Matt Wallace 50 to one with eight places again another um course history got uh down here who just loves this course plays well and has been doing pretty well here recently both across the pond and here on the PGA tour now my four bombs I want to start off with Daniel burger at 75 to1 uh with eight places um his ball striking looked really good here recently it looks like he might be back we’ll see and you know if you said burger at 75 to1 in this field three years ago you’d be crazy now he’s gone through a lot of stuff hopefully he’s coming back I think this is a great tournament for him to come back at and do well he always tended to play well on easier courses so give me a little bit of burger 75 to one uh with eight places then I’m going to go ahead and take um sh Kim uh number one and burs are better uh in Easy conditioning easy scoring conditions uh in this field uh in the last 24 rounds uh he’s made a [ __ ] ton of cuts uh you know you can get him at um I got him at 90 to one with eight places Justin lower again another golfer who plays well on easier type setups uh I got him 110 to one with eight places and then uh I I I tailed barar off on this one never really heard this guy but Benjamin James um I guess he he won a US Open qualifier that was littered with Tor pros and he is an amateur um out of UVA which I probably shouldn’t bet him anyway since I am a hokey but uh I went with bar off and I went 12 places with this guy 225 to one got it so you know there are some guys here that are like super young um that you know might have a chance I mean you guys you got Thor Buon you got Clan Shipley who’s like 170 we were just talking about kin who’s been who’s been playing very very well uh James again another guy who uh won that qualifier again a bunch of tour Pros so we could see some youth definitely sticking out at this event this week now I know Byron you have some more bets for us why don’t you go over them please I got a little teaser for you guys because I’ve always got my back nine bet show that’s on Mayo media Network this will be the official full on on Mayo no more on Back N bets it’s fully on Mayo media Network now on Tuesdays at 7 Eastern so catch me over there on back nine bets Kenny made me drink s and a half Twisted Teas on the show last week but we still survived and so that was the first time I seen your show in a while right um dude you’re spitting like sacks bro oh you were spit you were spinning spitting some [ __ ] out there I don’t know if it was the seven [ __ ] uh Twisted Teas that I forced you a drink in the span of like 20 minutes which is impressive by the way uh but uh I yeah I don’t know make sure you check that show out because you’re models I can see why they call you the model Maniac because those things are pretty [ __ ] tight if you ever want to you know throw some of those on here I’m sure producer Mike can put those up on the board for you on occasion because those models are pretty [ __ ] sick absolutely we’ll make sure we take care of that going forward I think that’s a great idea can you give the people another little teaser before they jump into the show tomorrow and um I’m going to go with the four guys there’s three guys or so that really have some incredible top 40 numbers when it comes to like completing top 40 percentages and Alex noren Aaron Ry you’re going to find them at-6 – 150 these are the bubble Us boy bets here we’re going to see these three guys come through and then the anchor that’s really going to get this thing to like plus 700 is Kelly craft so these guys when you’re taking a piek of what they get up to in the top 40 Market it’s it’s it’s Sensational they’re all at the top of the board here and they’re all in the 60% range for uh for made 40% you know like top 40 so you really want to take these guys and and parlay them to get them to 7 to1 I think it’s plus 36 5 uh bet 365 lets you do that and it’s plus 736 you know for the the payout there so you can do that and Kelly craft 62% of his 13 starts in the last 12 months have been top 40s but it’s only 23% of them have been top 20s right so you find these guys my model identifies these guys for me and then I can find out okay this is the bet you want to place on Kelly craft is the top 40 bets because it happens more often than not and in a field like this k you know I fancy his chances even though the model doesn’t quite fancy him as much so oh you know what the model actually add in pretty high for me so I agree with you on Kelly grath especially when it comes to easy courses um if I’m looking at my model right now for easy courses if I remember correctly he was pretty high up there go ahead go ahead yeah no those are my three there those are little tasters for the the top 40s side of things there the bubbl Los boys and um we’re going to rock and roll with the top 40 par lady pay out 7 to1 so hopefully that can take care of business for us this week 7 to1 parlay sounds good to me make sure you go uh put that in let’s win some [ __ ] money [ __ ] all right so let’s move on let’s actually talk about this week PJ Tor heads to Detroit Michigan I’m actually going to be in Detroit uh in about a month uh right outside of Detroit uh shout out to our guy over at uh Monster Energy for hooking us up for going to go see uh some NASCAR over at uh uh Michigan Speedway with a little Jeff fineberg uh so that should be a fun little week uh to go but the PJ tour heads Detroit Michigan for the Rock and mor mortgage classic from Detroit Golf Club this is the sixth iteration of this event gotta change that and write up because I have fifth uh iteration of this event so we’re starting to get a feel asot of course plays the first two years absolute birdie fest last one by six Strokes with a score of minus 25 in 2019 course is wet and soft due to the frequent rain leading into the event and while the rough was at about three and a half four inches it didn’t really stop golfers from break he had the big stick off the te uh you know four years ago Bryson and wolf towards the course uh an 11 golfers shot 15 minus 15 are better three years ago the win was up and the winner was still minus 18 and more than half people that made the cut finished double digit under par um this was with 20 plus mile perow gust every day of the event uh two years ago Fina Torchy course winning score minus 26 last year Ricky won a minus 24 uh there has been a fair amount of rain in Detroit this summer and the weather looks a bit Stormy this week so wet conditions are in play which should lead to many darts thrown onto the green no matter from the Fairway or the rough there is some talk of like 30 mile per hour gust on Saturday uh so that’s something to keep an eye on it probably won’t affect the cut but I mean if you’re playing Showdown or something on Saturday it’s probably something to look at um now usually in these type of events a hot putter gets the job done so this causes a lot of volatility basically this event wide open long shots definitely in play especially when considering how short the course is bombing will help you but don’t let the 70300 yard length fool you the Par Four is only average around 420 yards in length and with two shortage par 3es and Par fives short knockers with hot Putters and a solid wed short iron game definitely in play uh this week now Detroit golf club uh was designed by DOD Ross uh and has all the usual Trad marks of a Ross course Treeland Fairways numerous Fairway bunkers in the t-shot landing zones undulating Fairways and Greens Greens always slope heavily from back to front and a somewhat even blend of longish and shorter holes the course is a 7300 plus yard par 72 four par 3es four par fivs two of the par fivs are around 5 are around the 550 yard range should be reached into two by most golfers that hit hit the Fairway off the T so the par five 17th bit longer 577 yards still should be reachable in two with a good drive par five fourth hole well over 600 probably be a three- shot hole for most uh two of the par 3es are on the shorter side and two are well over 200 yards seven of the par Force range from 395 to 455 yards two range from 465 to 480 and one of the par force is close to 380 yards with four par fivs several longer par fours and hardly any dog legs I expect to see driver pulled out on close to half the holes each round I think I saw a stat like on nonpar 3es it was like 79% of the time we’re going to see driver all off the te now off the te golfers are going to see many straight holes not too many dog legs average Fairway width and Fairway bunkers in the landing zones the fairways have a bit of undulation on them so many approaches will come with awkward stances and if golfers miss the Fairway off the te they’re going to have to deal with three and a half plus inch rough and some treats the rough isn’t hasn’t led to tough scoring conditions as the winning scores have been what I said before almost all in in the mid minus 20s except for the one year where it was windy as [ __ ] but the windy score was still minus 18 uh that year if golfers Miss wildly with their driver they could catch a break his drives that missed by 20 plus yards or more could land in Fairways on other holes it’s very fir Stone esque when it comes to the positioning um of this a lot of you know one one Fair one one hole going this way another hole coming back the other way right next to it with another hole on the other side maybe going in the same direction right and so if you miss wildly like almost like what what Tony fena did in Puerto Rico in his first win where he was actually aiming for other Fairway Wass right um I mean you could see some of that at a course like this where everything is so straight ahead uh where if you miss by 20 yards to the right you’re in somebody else’s Fareway uh one of my specialties on the golf course personally uh for me um now like I said on approach on approaches golfers will see less than average size greens with bunkers surrounding most of them but green slop heavily from back to front uh with a stim meter rating of around 12 a half the majority of all approach will be from inside 175 yards so strong wedge short iron play is a must 125 to 175 something to key on this week uh the PO bent Blended greens have heavy ulation so it could be a tough putting week for some depending on how difficult they make the pin locations if you’re looking for correlating courses Sedgefield East Lake are the other two Donald Ross coures played every year you can also look at the travish uh as which has the same type of bet po greens as we see at Detroit Golf Club what are you looking for in golfers this week my friend I know the correlations for distance aren’t that high here Kenny but most of my outright card I think if you want to really pop here you got to be able to Nuke it off the te bit you know I think that helps a lot um guys that can hit the irons close I use this thing called good shot rate so on one shot you’re getting over half a stroke on approach you know that’s what you’re looking for that’s going to give you a really good birdie opportunity I’ll be looking for a lot of that this week and then guys can just make putts you know like you got to be able to make your putts and you got to dominate those power fives so that’s why Davis Thompson loves this kind of golf course cu the guys he leaded power five scoring so I think that’s what you’re kind of looking for here it’s kind of simple but at the same time a lot of people can do that kind of stuff you know on this T so that’s what makes it so hard all right well let’s get to these [ __ ] tiers let’s go in the 10K range we got oh my shit’s all discombobulated who do we got in 10k range there brother yeah mine’s also Frozen but it’s Tom Kim karon Young mini and Alex noren are the top four guys in the in the 10K range there and Tom’s at 11 and Alex n’s at 102 at the bot who you going with it’s all ownership dependent because I really like these guys at the top all four of them are nice to go with I think Tom Kim is playing his eighth consecutive tournament or ninth consecutive tournament but he’s 22 he is 22 but jez dude that’s a lot of golf um it’s all about who’s popular I’ll play any of these guys if if they give me a leverage opportunity I can’t tell you who like you said this is Long Shot season in this in this event so I’m not going to be be playing chalk up top here my number one guy in the model is Cameron young because he’s just played well in the past he’s obviously playing great right now but I think you think everyone’s GNA jump back on him now after two and a half two good rounds well you shot a 59 and you got to go low yeah so everyone’s going to think oh you’ll do it again again you know like maybe he does but I just don’t trust him to win the tournament whereas I think Tom Kim could win this tournament where I think meno finds himself in the mix he could win the tournament so I guess those are my two guys Tom and Mano two yeah I like Tom I’m gonna play Tom I’m gonna play Tom even with the nine weeks I don’t care um you know when it when it comes down to it the guy you know he just makes a [ __ ] ton of [ __ ] birdies especially when it comes to easier you know he’s he’s number one in the model in birdies a better game number three in strok schem Tia green everything suits up for him um I think he’s played this course before and he did pretty decent right I I can’t remember um whaton yeah he played last year it wasn’t horrible um now when it comes to cam young and Min wo I’m GNA play the lowest owned of the two which I would suspect would be minu because I think both can win and I think both can [ __ ] the [ __ ] BET right all right and so when it comes down to I’m only going to play one of those two guys um and I’m probably GNA go with the guy with the lower ownership minwu he pound it out there hit H far he’s become a little bit more consistent um here uh now his iron game still isn’t the best but he hits it so far uh and you know off so strong um that you I think I I I would go on him on this week now norin I just can’t pay 10K for if he wins and beats me he beats me now here’s the thing I think a a lot of people might think the way I’m thinking so I would guess nor is the lowest owned guy in the 10K range even though he is the cheapest um now this thing does go down to 6K is this the first time we’ve seen 6K in a non signature event 5K in a non signature yes yeah the 5K trying to think back like we’re going down to 5K I mean like you literally could play like two guys any two guys up top basically if you want to uh because we’re not going all the way up to 13k with with Scotty right it’s 11 like they forgot to change the settings I think almost yeah it’s like 11,000 yeah so so I mean like you you could play like Amon young Tom kiman and the okay I mean like I built a really nice lineup with 39K guys in it but yeah like yeah so you know so yeah yeah definitely so I’m going to play Tom he’s my favorite I’ll play the lowest owned of Cameron young and M who I suspected would be M but I don’t know people might turn around and be like I’m not going to go back to Tom or to go back to Canada just a couple of rounds if he’s going to be 28% own maybe his ownership tapes a drop after the ownership prots come out yeah right and you can see something like that that’s something I could see with a with a c yo if you see him at like 28% almost 30% right uh when you when you when you look at you know gubs Corner Roto Ballers or um fantasy Nationals lineup uh ownership projections you’re like I don’t know man I don’t know maybe gets closer yeah maybe his number gets closer to 20% because of that I could definitely see that happening with a guy like cam who’s so volatile both ways all right so let’s go to this 9k range and I love a lot of golfers here um I’m going to start off with Taylor pend as my first cash game Cornerstone pretty simple stuff I have him um as one of my bets he tends to play these easier courses very well very good putter his iron game has been very very strong here recently um so I I like Taylor very very easy for my first cash game Corner the next one I’m going a little course history with Stephen Yer who’s also you know a guy who makes a lot of cuts I think he’s made like six of his last seven cuts um he has back-to-back top 10 at this event um you know T green is exceptionally strong he’s really good from 150 to 175 uh so I’ll go and play joerger as my second cash game Cornerstone um and I like btia up there at 9800 again a another guy who can make a a good amount of birdies good from 150 to 175 good on shorter bar Force um and can put it you know and his putter can catch heat uh if it really wants to so so I I I like those three guys basically B is the gpp and give me those other two guys in cash who do you like in a 9k Range y I love those because Jer and pendrith this course is their second best course you know out of all of their courses that they played 52 and 45 different courses this is their second best Strokes gain course of theirs so love those as two cash game cornerstones I love the btia play as well you know all my out routs are in this range I will not be playing Ricky Fowler hopefully a lot of people go back to him because of his his rocket mortgage win here last year the guy’s got one top five in like the last 23 starts it’s disgusting top 15 last week right no he finished 21st or 20th like he made an eagle on the final like almost made a ho in one lifeless dude like when he when he like celebrated that Victory there’s like I have this gift where he’s just B his soul just leaves his body he lost all ambition to be good at golf again like from that moment on he gave that two-footer to Tommy Fleetwood to pretty much concede the freaking Rider cup like Ricky Fowler is on my [ __ ] list I’m done with him I don’t know if I can deal with that guy anymore willly Z as well grades out really well for me but I don’t trust him on this kind of a golf course um despite his caliber you know I maybe if some ownership provides us with some opportunity to leverage there but those three guys at the top are going to be very popular yeah I agree H yeah yeah that’s why I got those two at cash and then baa if you’re looking for a pivot in a 9k Range I’d go willly Z over Ry it’s probably got to be Willie Z right I mean you would think but I don’t know if I’m going to go with him either uh AK MAV nearly third cash game Cornerstone $8,900 again we talked about an OB bomber whose iron game has been sneakily getting a lot better uh here in the last few months um who is one of the best Putters in this field or who’s who’s normally who’s a top half putter in this field a top third putter in this field um of course he makes a [ __ ] ton of birdies he hits it long enough um really strong off to te he’s had a top 10 at this course in the past uh he’s been playing really good golf in these last few times out now I did have a really really hard time between him and Ry um so if you want to play Ry in cash instead of MAV I have no problem with that definitely thought about doing that actually hit up uh Producer Mike earlier today told him it was going to be MAV hit him up an hour later be like I changed my mind it’s going to be Ry hit him up 30 minutes after that like my bad it’s gonna go back to math and that conversation had multiple typos in it as well my bad Producer Mike I apologize about that but I really like him um in this range I like killer Keith a lot uh bomit out there um you know cheeter Green he’s been the best in this field one of the strongest off the tea very good from both 125 150 150 to 175 um L off the te I actually had him in my cash lineup at one point in time though I made some adjustments he’s not in there now but he could be by the end of the week um I like Bobby Mack I I don’t really like him but I’m going to play Bobby Mack I hate that fat bastard anyways uh but I’m play him you know when you when you gamble when you’re playing for money you got to let all biases aside so so fake ass Kum Montgomery is going to get some of my money uh this week um for Bobby Ma just because you know he’s been playing exceptionally good golf I mean even last week he was good he’s deceptively long off the te and he could putt his ass off so so go ahead and give me a little bit of Bobby Mack uh down here I’ll play Chris Kirk I’ll play Ryan Fox um you know foxy again other guy short course uh not short course easier course tends to play better could pound it out there um I like this 8K range a lot I don’t mind just playing those three guys in the 9k range one guy or two guys in that 10K range and above and just eering this 8K range one guy I’ll probably avoid because I can never get him right as Davis Thompson and he’s picking up so much Steam from what I’ve already seen he’s probably going to be 15 to 18% owned I would suspect uh maybe even close to 20 we’ll see uh and I will go ahead and pass on that with that type of ownership even though everything sort of looks like it sort of fits when it comes to this course I could just never get him right um so he’s probably gonna win well it’ll be his first top five in the last year if he does win for Davis Thoms I mean that’s what you’re getting with him like the lack of upside with Davis Thompson is Paramount and his first top 10 I believe was at the US Open of all places so you know like if you want to go long-term stuff Davis Thompson not good at all for an upside play at this price points you know I think he’s going to be very popular but if you’re looking for some recent Trends you know he’s throwing some form at his first top 10 at a US Open in a major that’s that can give you some confidence so he dominates his par fives I can see why people will like him but um I will be not playing him if he’s very popular and another guy who I’m going to make a ball claim here and say maybe Keith Mitchell’s the most owned option in the field because he leads the field in Strokes gain total Kenny his last top five was the 3M that’s coming up in like four weeks time or whatever right like it’s almost been a year since he’s had a top five yet he’s sitting here in the field with a number one Strokes gain total so he’s going to be very very popular and he makes a lot of sense with this skull course but he just doesn’t deliver man this guy just he’s like your Uber Eats you need to you need to have killer Keith as your Uber Eats guy because you’ll be ordering stuff you think you’re getting but he’s not delivering to you bro so that’s the situation we finding ourselves yeah but I love the rest of these guys in this 8K range and I think I’ll just be finding low owned options to kind of slide in with those other three guys you know that we spoke about in The Nines which I’m a big fan of so just finding the options to Pivot offia this Michael thoron is definitely someone I’ll be looking at Ryan Fox Chris Kirk blah blah blah Bobby Mack I’m in you know like these are all options I’ll be looking at maybe Maverick mcne will be left out as well doesn’t have a top five in his last 12 months either so I like him as a cash last start was seventh yes that’s good you know again but at the same time you know how we go with the Wu leeet and Sam Burns right like you just get that little urge of of sudden like momentum and the next thing you’re firing it up so I can see how that works out but I’m a long-term guy you know that’s what you’re trying to do here in the in the golf bitting side and just squeeze edges out but um yeah those will be my Fades and plays in the eights go ahead with a 7K range brother in the sevens Taylor Moore number one option when it comes to this golf course it’s his best golf course he scores the best Strokes gained metrics at this venue out of all golf courses he’s ever played on the PGA tour so500 bucks if he’s going to be low owned at $7,500 I mean you know like it’s a there’s certain guys that just have this really good course history stuff it just suits his eye he’s cheap if he struggles he struggles you know he’s he’s affordable I think I’m okay with that um because if I’m going course history in this situation I’m going Matt Wallace in sure because the form is there too you know so personally I would I would put Wallace ahead of them but I I understand where you’re going with more I almost had him in my in my cast on too when I first initially made it but then I looked through this course history I’m like no that’s that’s not happening yeah I mean it’s it’s interesting because it’s if you got form and good course history you’re going to be popular you know whereas if you got the good course history and lack of form that’s provide you with the situation to kind of get around that right so I like that thought I like that I don’t I don’t mind that there and then I used the American Express 3 courses for I know the the stadium course not as much but Nick Dunlap really translates well as a com course option he when it comes to these like lows scoring events with weak Fields that’s where Nick Dunlap really shows up so I’ll be playing Nick he’s weird know even after his win like he sucked but like he’s had some pretty good finishes here recently like in the last a couple of months I like that dude yeah showed up at the memorial out of nowhere I think he must be a big milkshake guy but um whatever you was getting up to Davis Cameron Davis right in this range here Nikolai hoard Basta these are all guys that great inside the top 22 for me in my model you know and they in the seven threes yeah 72 so big time fan are these guys and then Kevin Yu oh boy this guy can hit the nukes off the tea but when he putts badly he putts very badly you know like it’s he order is a full portion of 24 chicken wings when he’s playing badly keny and I think Kevin U’s got the upside though but the the backwards thing he can hit it in reverse pretty quickly there so those are just some options I I don’t mind getting my hands on in the sevens yeah um just starting up near the top I mean how hubard seems like a guy who just makes every cut um if you’re looking for safety and like cash or something I don’t know even if I would go there I I thought about it but I’m not sure uh senson is another guy uh that I like who’s terer green game is exceptionally strong very good on short par fors accurate off the te even though he doesn’t necessarily have the length um his approach game has been fire here recently so I like svenny um Patrick Rogers hits it long he can putt his ass off good on short par Force um I can go with a little Patrick Rogers Matt Wallace I did talk about already I am a fan Lee Hodes is my final cash game Cornerstone again top 10 in approach uh you know top five in wedge play um uh you know one of the best from you know 125 to 175 in this field uh he’s made a bunch of cuts here recently so get make him my lowest priced uh cash game Cornerstone I’m 100% cool with that so my cash game cornerstones for this week are going to be endr at 96 jger at 994 MAV at 89 though I don’t hate Rob at 88 and also um um Hodes at 71 um other guys that I’m looking at I like hoard I think talent wise hoard is up there in Talent with the people that are high priced in this field um he hasn’t really showed too much but he he he showed a little bit um at the Open Championship at the US Open uh where he started off really strong but really fought his way uh to make the cut and actually fit with a respectable finish uh I do like hoard he can hit it long off the field I don’t expect him to be highly owned um and I think like T just just talent wise he’s one of the most talented golfers in this 10K range or in this 7K range um so I like hoard uh down here a little bit lower um Sam Stevens whenever you driver heavy course is just Sam Stevens try uh you know when he when he has that the big dog in his hand 80% of the time I feel like he he he can he can he can Peak uh so this is that type of course so I’ll play a little low owned Sam Stevens I’m gonna hit the burger train going back with boo over at $7,000 again he’s he’s looks strong he played well at the US Open um his his his his ball striking numbers have been strong um again he’s very very he’s always been very good at weak field easy events uh easy courses throughout his career rear uh so I do like him at 7K now let’s move down to the 6K and there’s plenty of guys down here um I mean you know Doug gim again uh Tia green really really strong really good from 125 to 150 uh really good on shorter r4s same with um Taylor Montgomery you know a guy who could be sub 4% owned right who hits it far to putt his ass off not the best on approaches but his best proximity range is 400 to 450 hard fors um and you’re going to see a bunch of those you’re going to see what Sub three% sub 5% on him you know he could be a GP winner um toasty we talked about you talked about now we got this jacksson Kon guy who I know uh I think it was either bar off or somebody posted about all these young bucks or it could have been skot hook uh out there uh kobos these new young studs he’s going to be a guy you probably want to remember uh his name I don’t know much about him I’m going in based off people who are smarter than me talking about that I would trust uh so I could go play a little bit of him very good butter very good just Justin lower another easy course specialist like he moves from like uh uh I guess seventh to fourth in my model when it comes to regular uh regular no filters to easy course filter he cracks my top five um in my model um again another guy down here uh Maddie Schmid again Sub three% sub two% guy who’s going to be down here who can p look who’s good off the te and he can Puck very very well and who no one is going to play um there’s a bunch of guys down here I mean uh Chan Kim okay he goes from like 24th to like six in my model when you go from no filter to easy course easy scoring conditions um I do like Chan Kim Troy Merritt right underneath him loves this course loves birdie Fest right if it’s a birdie Fest and you and and Troy Mary’s in a 6K range you play him it’s like law right so you go and play Troy maritt at 60 what 6300 Neil Shipley chess and Hadley David skins there’s oh [ __ ] ton of plays uh in this 6K range even in this field uh there are guys that’s why it’s not difficult for Superstars and scrubs and I expect a lot of superstars and scrubs this week who do you like in the sixk r I’ll just rattle off two guys because I liked a lot of your dudes Kenny you know the Toasties the Naps the sh Kims Neil Shipley Chan Kims all those guys a lot of the Kims this week are I like them a lot but oh sh Kim I totally forgot he might even be my favorite play like I said yeah like first and birdies on easy scoring conditions uh in this field last 24 rounds yeah exactly he’s made 11 Cuts in a row 11 out of 12 be cruising dude and he’s $6,400 you know it’s like super super super cheap so I’m all in on those guys I will mention that I’m a big fan of Andrew Novak this week as well I think you know he’s he’s just been playing some steady solid golf this year and then I want to mention another guy by the name of Max GRE $6,200 and and this dude’s just popping pretty hard for me so I’ll be playing him a lot with some Charlie Hoffman as well take a peek you want to play Charlie Hoffman of course as Charlie Hoffman plays well at right so if you think about the waste management the guy was just making birdies after birdies that’s one of his favorite courses I think he tends to play pretty nicely at this Vue as well Charlie Hoffman 6200 see what you can find yourself over there where’s David skin yeah David skin is another guy at 6000 who goes from like 39th in my model to like top 15 when it comes to easy hes also so another guy uh that you could pick off here uh in this 6K range Ben Cole’s 5 at 6K it’s right at 6,000 yes there’s so many guys yeah 5K range is not as great go ahead I like Gary higo I like Parker Cy semi valaki those are some options I’m in the fan you like Parker or pear Parker I like Pearson the the OG brother we all thought was going to be the one but I think Pearson’s a pretty good putter as well um but Parker’s popping Parker’s popping for me um don’t mind him and then Harry Hall another guy who can can get get it sending off the tea and then every now and then catches a good hot putter so give me a bit of him there and and I think that’s going to be some other options I guess in the bottom yeah Rafael Campos I’m a big your boy Kelly craft Kelly craft exactly third in my model on easy courses my model might be [ __ ] no that’s the whole point of DFS is find your freaking narrative and you ride with it baby and and I’m I’m in for it you know my favorite play Sam Rider I’m a big Sam Rider guy always always love me a little bit of Sami Rider and the guy could just make a whole [ __ ] ton of birdies when he wants like his birdie like and Eagles and stuff yeah the guy can just make a ton of birdies bro and then a 50 700 5600 give me give me a little bit of Rider down here anybody under like 50 five because I I stopped at Kelly graft at 57 yeah I think like Roger slowen showed some form in Canada has a solid history as well like a really solid history too so I’ll take a little bit of Roger Slow and if if if that’s what’s what’s on the menu for us there you got miles Russell down there who’s what 16 17 right oh he’s the kft guy yeah that made the F the youngest kft cut yeah let go I I don’t know we going to play him but be cool to see him play got some 16-year-old out there balling when I was 16 I was getting stoned behind the trash dumpster of the apartment complex right next to my high school uh that’s what I was doing when I was sign similar to what I’m doing now except I home doing it h and it’s not against the law and it’s not against the law now that would be another thing all right um anything else before we move on to nothing I think we’re that’s it for me keny good tell them where they can find youor yeah catch me at back n Bits tomorrow s Easton and on X at the model Maniac I’ll be there for you for any questions you have I’ll post all my stuff articles at ro.com you know use code summer that will get you I think 30% off the summer so that’s that’s

  2. First in!! I have to go with the favorite this week give me Tom Kim for the win in another birdie fest. Appreciate the content as always fellas 👏 DK: Jrod314

  3. Calorie counting doesn't work in the long run. Cutting out carbs and intermittent fasting is the way to go.

  4. Thanks guys! Kenny, as Byron said don’t focus so much on what you eat but how much. Although I’ve never struggled with weight my ex wife did. I was the cook so I cooked the same foods but made less. When we went out to eat we shared a plate or ate 1/2 and saved the rest for a second meal. Your stomach will shrink quickly to where you will won’t even want to eat more without feeling like you just finished a Thanksgiving meal. Good luck to both of you. Davis Thompson for the win. DK Mattincabo

  5. Kenny, I like Byron’s suggestion to control the portions better. Your gains are so good, hate to see you take any steps back. Gum helps me curb appetite, but portion control will go a long way on your cheat days.
    Inspiring to see you be vulnerable in this process
