Trent chases breaking 85 at Woodloch with Kiz's putting help

Trent's Breaking series has been a Barstool golf staple for years now, working its way up from Breaking 100 to Breaking 90 and now the toughest ask yet: getting a round into the 80s. Frankie has been the hype man and caddy for the whole climb, and the two are right back at one of their go-to courses, Woodloch Springs, to give it another shot.

The vibes are high, the weather is right and Frankie & Trent are back at one of their favorite places, Woodloch Springs, with one mission: Break 85. @PGZ_GOLF

The new episode dropped on Fore Play's feed, and the headline moment is Trent calling in reinforcements mid-round. Rather than just eyeballing a tricky read, he got Kiz on FaceTime for an actual ruling — and then drained the putt with his podcast co-host watching live from the phone.

Called Kiz in for the ruling then drained the putt with him live on FaceTime. Trent Ryan is a MOMENT guy

That's peak Fore Play content — turning a random putt on a Tuesday into a shared moment because Kiz happened to be reachable. It also doubles as free coaching. Kisner is a PGA Tour pro and one of the sharper putters to ever sit behind a Fore Play mic, so having him weigh in on reads isn't just a bit, it's actually useful for a guy trying to shave strokes off his short game.

That help seems to be showing up on camera. A follow-up clip has Trent locked in over a putt, on-screen text calling out the break as it happens — the kind of green-reading habit that lines up with someone who's actually been getting tips instead of just guessing.

Thanks to Kiz’s putting lessons, Trent is now dialed in on the greens in his hunt to break 85. @PGZ_GOLF

Breaking 85 has always worked because the stakes are low but the commitment is real — Trent's not a scratch golfer chasing content, he's a guy who's visibly gotten better across Breaking 100 and Breaking 90 with Frankie needling him the whole way. Whether the putting lessons are enough to actually get him under 85 this time is still the whole plot of the episode, but pulling Kiz into the group chat mid-round is a good sign he's taking the assignment seriously.
