Video #22638 · Talking Head Edit
[01]
The creator delivers a deadpan, mockumentary-style confession about being a 'sandbagger' in golf. He explains his strategy of keeping a secret, accurate handicap on an app while using an inflated one at the club to win money from friends. The video uses dramatic black-and-white cutaways and golf B-roll to heighten the comedic contrast between the serious tone and the petty subject matter, ultimately serving as a clever sponsored integration for a golf app.

I keep a burner handicap (I'm a sandbagger)
I've been sandbagging pretty much my whole life. I keep my real handicap on the good. I keep my stats there. I know to the decimal point what my handicap really is, but nobody needs to know that. What people see at the club, that's my tournament handicap. That's what I use when I'm playing in member guests or playing against my friends for money. I know my true self. I know how many fairways I hit, how many putts I average per round. One thing I'm not doing in there is lying about my scores, but I'll do that where I have to, and I'll keep making money. I'll keep beating my friends. I don't care if people think I'm a cheater. I just like to win. And at the end of the day, I still know who I really am.
