My name is Erich and I live in Italy welcome to my channel. I used to play golf on and off for many years, but I started my journey again about 8 years ago, changing my swing completely.
My goal is to become a single figure handicap golfer in the near future.
To achieve this goal, I built my own backyard putting green and set up a backyard golf net. I love playing in my backyard green, doing drills, club reviews and playing at the range and at the course to get better at the game and ultimately reach my goal (hopefully).

CALLAWAY CHROME BEST BALL FOR AMATEURS
I'll pass. I prefer to have more excuses as to why I just missed that 3 footer for triple boogie.
Another version of the thing that players have done for decades
@@aneyesky I think it could make a difference in putting
Test is super interesting and I do think you show the potential of how it can effect your putting. I’d like to see it done with maybe more premium golf balls like what Bryson plays with (left dash). Other than that it would be smart to get yourself or fabricate a rig that makes this test more consistent. Great content nonetheless!!
@@rj3_golf thanks, yes I will work on a better device and premium balls next time
I notice, when you slow the videos down and look closely, that the balls usually wobble left to right as they roll down the track. This is compounded by your release being inconsistent. When the ball leaves the track it sometimes exits significantly right or left depending on it's wobble at the time. I assume this is caused by the dimples causing a rocking effect as it rolls down. I expect this is made worse because your track it too thin. A wider V shaped track would likely remove this variable. I'm sure there are other variables, and I'm sure others will point them out, but this is a big one that jumped out to me right away.
It's not going to be perfect, but I think it was better than putting it every time differently. I feel that overall it does replicate a real life situation and I think that there is a difference between balanced and unbalanced balls. If you look in the short range test, only one ball lipped out and it was the one ball that was always lipping out from the beginning
The ground is a huge variable you are ignoring. Your ball release is also not consistent as well. You need a machine on a consistent surface that isn't grass to do a proper test.
@@adkjfasldkf I tried my best and I feel that there is definitely a difference between balanced and unbalanced balls
Every different type of ball has different amount and shaped dimples.
Basically how we did it back in highschool but we didn't have handicaps. Cool video!!🏌♂⛳
@@ZaxDrumsandGolf it adds more pressure when there is more players
@@thebackyardgolfer7010 I used to really enjoy it since I am competitive!! Never won out right but I had some decent finishes!!
there is no age limit to doing little competitions like this, especially on the weekends, it's fun
I’m going to add salt to all of the water hazards on our golf course…….

i did this just for fun to see, knowing it wont make a bit of difference and out of almost all of the new prov1xs i had at home MAYBE 2 of them were out of balance.
That’s not bad, I had 4 unbalanced balls from a 13 pack of prov1s 🤦🏻♂️
This is an awesome DYI golf shed. Good job in creating a space that works for you!
Thank you, it does the trick so far, so good
I think tactical mistakes is a big difference between 2-6 hcp. For example, on the first hole, if you look at the misses you take into play with an 8 iron. If you instead hit it further than the two bunkers with a 7iron and 2-putt backwards, your misses wouldn't be chipping over any of the bunkers. Especially if you have struggles with the direction of your irons <3
Yes, that's exactly how I feel, you start thinking more of where to miss rather than just hit a great shot, the more attentive you are the lower the score
Try real life putting test with balanced ball and unbalanced ball to show how big the effect is..
Yes sir, I'm planning to do a lip out test very soon!
Are all of the lofts the same length?
no slightly shorter
Yes! I’m preparing to play some big amateur tournaments in my area in the coming months. Can’t wait to document those. Good help to preparing in this one Erich! Does it matter on which tees you play?
They have specific tees where you have to tee off from, they are marked, but it varies from course to course
The music makes me nervus. Please without nextvtime
I'll take it off next time, thanks for the feedback
Nice WITB! Maybe try a sim max 3 wood to match your current driver. I have a Cobra LTDX and hit it pretty good. I’m gaming the sim 2 max 9° which looks similar to yours.
Thanks, yes I’m looking for a second hand 3 wood
Thanks, very informative and interesting. I have a handicap but didn’t know you could do a tournament against one person. Thanks for sharing your experience, quite helpful. Cheers
I think in some countries you can also just play by yourself but not in Italy
@@thebackyardgolfer7010 Didn't know that. 😎
@@metalheads-golf In Georgia, USA you can play by yourself and post a score
i like your bucket hat under products does fit xllarge heads, i have a big head?
I've a big head too, yes I think most trucker hats are fitted for big heads
so you're really onto something here. i went out to my backyard practice mat area and tried this and it worked great. i also tried getting it to happen at different spots like early before the bottom of the arc and more at the ball and a point after the ball and i got different ball heights but all went on a nice small draws toward the middle. i cant't wait to try it for real later this week, thnx.
I’m glad it’s working, it takes time but for me it’s it was like night to day
you dropped this 📌can i have it
It's a Calloway, what do you expect 😅
😅😅😅
i've also tried leaving the hands and wrists really loose and letting the weight of the club cock and uncock the wrists and it works real well for a while but can turn into a flip for me.
it's a different feeling for every golfer, but once you get it, trust me you'll know
i've tried pointing the thumbs up on the backswing and pointing the thumbs down to hit the ball. i've had the 'impact snap' device for years and sometimes work with it to train the wrist and hand action.
i think at the top coming down the left wrist is in extension.
At the top feel your left hand like a hand check only move your wrists down, do not move them to the sides because this cause extension or flexion.
Bryson literally tells you how to mark and still use an out of balance ball. Don't have to toss them out of the bag 😂
Yes I know, I will do it on my unbalanced balls
i've been golfing for about 50 years and have known ulnar deviation exists for the last ten years or so but it just dawned on me yesterday that we're in ulnar at address and it has to be at some point hitting the ball. then i started thinking that it's in a lot of things we do like using a hammer or axe, casting a fishing rod, hockey and baseball. i'm gonna work on this and see if i can get it to happen naturally or actually apply it in my action. thnx for the help.
It worked for me, it takes time, but once I got it I made huge progress like never before, just more consistent. Radial on the takeaway but most importantly ulnar on the downswing and make sure not to bow your wrists just go down (ulnar deviation) it really works, good luck and let me know
Hey buddy.. I've been following you since Covid I built a course here in Nova Scotia. I don't have any putting surfaces. I have 5 flags and I draw a 3 foot radius circle around the flag. So my 5 flag course I drive. Approach, chip, then take a conceed stroke for getting it close to the flag stick. If I hit the stick I don't mark a conceed stroke .. Anyway.. There is a high speed still shot of Bryson driving the ball.. it LOOKS like he is hitting the ball so hard that he's smashing the paint off of it.. ( there's a cloud of white) It's not paint it's SALT.. Do you think.. if you were to soak your golf balls in Epsom salt. Then let them dry... Without wiping them off.. would the fine salt particles reduce spin? Basically making the ball fly straighter???
Hey there, that's awesome to have a small course, I would love to have just one par 3 hole. I don't know about the salt, but I now Bryson is into something, I actually improved so much after doing the radial and ulnar deviation, now he is doing all these things to check his golf balls.... I will have to try that salt trick, there maybe a scientific reason!!!
How much does this REALLY affect ball performance?
It’s hard to know, but it could cause a lip out so it might be worth looking at 🤷🏻♂️
I thought at least callaway have a process whereby all the balls are balanced now?? Anyone know if that’s true??
A few people mentioned that about Callaway. I will be buying a new pack of soft chromes, we’ll see
Who’s here after Biden said he could do this 😂😂
I’ve never seen a swing by Biden only Trumps
@@thebackyardgolfer7010same
I am 😂 I don't know crap about golf so I wanted to see if biden was lying which I'm sure he is.😊
@@fabiandaniel2554 I just saw his swing, yes he's definitely lying, unless he was a 6 handicapper when he was young
Great content. You used all examples of the shot tracer with your drives, very clever way to explain
Thanks, I love this app, very reliable
I got a new Ping G430 max 10k driver on 07/06/24, on 28/06/24 it got a slight crack. Took it back to dealer, this sucks.
Was the head damaged with a golf ball?
@@thebackyardgolfer7010 nope it's cracked on back of the head
@@nisch2379 hope you can get it replaced under warranty
Very helpful, thank you
thank you
Awesome work - just a small square works too around 5mm x5mm size
thanks
@@thebackyardgolfer7010 no problems, and just make sure it’s not on the club side when you hit (so you don’t knock it off)
where is this course
It’s Rendena Golf Club in northern Italy 🇮🇹
Biden claimed in the debate tonight he is a 6 handicap golfer....... is this true or false?
😂😂😂
Good put!
thanks
WOW! This is wild! I've never thought about this before. I need to see if my balls are balanced. Good vid Erich!
This doesn't matter for 99.9% of us. We don't even play on greens where it's gonna matter. Outside factors matter so much more
thanks bro
Nice review!!🏌♂⛳ Did you see if they were balanced first before testing them?
No I have not check them yet, but I'm planning to buy this spinner device to test them
@thebackyardgolfer7010 Mr Pure Metal has a spinner. It seems to work good. 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
@@metalheads-golf I think I will order one
did you make sure your table is level? :D
It’s not perfectly leveled, but yes basically
Can you test the maxfli softfli
They’re hard to get where I live, but I’ll try, it supposed compress pretty good

I only dip my balls in A1 sauce
😂😂😂
Do you have a Check-Go? I am shocked and annoyed at how inconsistent balls are - the markings are all bullshit - but that's what most players use for alignment!
I will purchase one and compare it to the salt water test, but I'm also planning on doing more putting testing with unbalanced and balanced balls.
i'm pretty sure this would only apply to an elite player - highly doubt anyone else would be able to notice.
It would matter if you lip out because of an unbalanced ball, but the probability is quite low I guess…
OFFS !!!!! Just hit the fucking ball would you ? People are fucking waiting on you FFS !!!
Bryson is playing chess in a field full of checkers players
He still uses them he just playing with that mark up
Yes, someone mentioned that here, thanks
none of the balls will be perfect
It would matter if the ball lips out because it’s unbalanced
Just a thought but I think Bryson meant that if it’s unbalanced than you mark it on the spot that it turns to each time and that is the axis you want to roll it on when you play that ball so it will roll straight. The imbalanced weight as long as you line that dot up will roll end over end. Don’t throw them away just mark them appropriately
yes, I will be doing this on unbalanced balls so I can still used them
