Old dogs may not be great to learn new tricks, but they are good enough in teaching timely coated skills. Take Mike “Fluff” Cowan as a case in point.
In 76 years old, veteran Tour Caddy, most known for many fans like former -Mustachioed Bagman for Tiger WoodsHe has been in his trade for nearly half a century, so he knows one or two things about the demands of work.
He also has an ability to give master classes on them, too.
That talent appeared this week during a practical round forward PGA Tour Champions Chubb Classic, in Naples, Fla., Where Cowan took a break to provide a course care lesson.
Topic: How to steal a bunker properly.
In a social media video posted on Friday, Cowan, who now works for CT Pan after being friendly with Jim Furyk last year, is seen entering a green bunker in the Golf Club Tybaron when he is asked if he hates him when His players knock him on the sand.
“No,” Cowan replies. “Because they get it up and down all the time.”
In addition, he adds, “One of the craziest things about all this job is that I really like torrential bunkers.”
What is the secret?
At the suggestion, Cowan gives a demonstration, confessing his actions as he goes.
Thelli, he says, “is to work away from you.”
After decades he traveled to the world, Cowan still speaks in the emphasis of his birth pepperidge farm.
So, indeed, what he says is, “work away from YA”.
Be that as it may, however, it is clear what you are doing, walking back from the bunker as it pushes the broom to soften the sand. Working in both directions pushing and drawing is a non-no, Cowan notes, while imitating the ardent movement used by many players who do not know-or do not want to take the time-to do it properly.
“Look how clumsy this is,” Cowan says about that random technique.
“Now look at the best this,” he says, returning to the right method. “You just leave you. Always away from you. It may take a few seconds longer, but you are leaving it in good condition. “
