Thank you @frankmoore1389. I hope this helps in some way and please stay tuned (and subscribe) as we have more content coming later this Summer. Cheers, RJ

Thanks for the comment @jimford3517. In short, yes, you can use this method to determine where to place the tee in relation to your stance (i.e. ball position; refer to time stamp 1:56 to 3:53; and 5:26 to 6:15). But, setup and swing will change with the presence of the tee. For example, stance will widen a bit and secondary spine angle will increase relative to club length and presence of tee (time stamp 6:43 wrt when on a tee); and lead foot might flare out a bit more, personal preference (time stamp 7:40). And, as always, don't forget to hover the club (separate video here ua-cam.com/video/9l29SK-xt58/v-deo.html ). All that said, the swing will definitely be different but that's a whole 'nother set of videos! Stay tuned as we will be addressing all of this in followup videos as we build out our "Topic 5 :: Power Game" playlist. Best, RJ

Thanks, Daniel! I appreciate the feedback. That means a lot to me to be called a good teacher! Stay tuned, more content coming soon. Cheers, RJ

Thanks, Tyson. Great question. For me, my go-to is my 58 (your 60) when close to the green, and this is my most lofted wedge. But, an exception might be long bunker shots, where I'll go down to my 55. Also depends on your type of play. If you are mid- to high-handicap, then I'd suggest 56 with a medium bounce. But if you are a lower handicap, then you would likely use a more lofted wedge with relatively low bounce (when close to the green), such as a 58/60 with 4 to 8 degrees of bounce. But, again, when you are in a longer bunker shot, you might go to the lower wedge. And, of course, conditions can impact all this, too! Heck, Lee Trevino would hit 3-irons out of the sands in clinics just to demonstrate the point that you can use different clubs with different technique in the same situation. But, it's about finding what works for YOU. That's the bottom line in golf. Net net, it's good that you have both a 56 and a 60. This allows you to try them both in various situations and conditions so that you know which to use when. You might also want more bounce on the 56 than the 60 just to increase more optionality. Let me know if this helps! Cheers, RJ

Thanks, Ryan! I can't understate how much this made me smile because my cameraman hates them! He says they are too dark on the screen. ;-) Thank you, RJ

Thank you for the feedback, Joseph. Helping folks in these specific ways is 100% why I wanted to get this content onto UA-cam. So, thank you so much. And, please subscribe and stay tuned as we have more coming this Summer. Also let me know how your game has progressed over the summer. Best, RJ

John, thank you so much. These types of comments mean the world to me. This is why I'm on UA-cam (and it can be very perplexing to figure out this algorithm!). Please do stay in touch and let me know how your game progresses. And, feel free to suggest other areas of the game you'd like to see me cover. Best, RJ

Thank you, @greyrabbit631. This is so true! I remember learning this for the first time too, and it had the exact same impact on me. Please do subscribe and stay tuned as we have a lot more coming! Best, RJ

Thank you, Vinay. I appreciate the kind words, very much. And, this has been my teaching philosophy for quite some time but it took a long time of trial-and-error to develop. I also was very fortunate to have direct influence and input from PGA Master Professionals, players and other mentors along the way. Please do subscribe so that you can get notified when we release new content (we are shooting a ton more this Summer) and I guess it helps spread the word, too. :) Cheers, RJ

Thank you, Echefula. "To the point and clear" is about as high of praise as I could hope for. So, thank you, again. Stay tuned for more coming! Best, RJ

Hi Michael... it's definitely on the downswing. But, this setup video is intended to address setup to the ball more so than swing mechanics, which we are in the process of shooting this Summer, so please stay tuned as we will be going deep into dynamic sequencing of the entire golf swing. Best RJ

Thank you, Lucas. I'm very proud of my technique and I've seen it work over and over again. I hope you are able to put some of it to work for you personally. Let me know! Best, RJ

Great really works with every club and given me more confidence I actually had 3 pars. Cheers

Thank you, GK. We are just starting out, so we greatly appreciate the effort to make a comment, like, etc. Stay tuned (and feel free to subscribe so you get notified) as we have a lot more planned and coming soon! Best, RJ

Thank you, Fred. I appreciate the comment and feedback. "Simple" is music to my ears! It's a complicated sport, so that is high praise, indeed. Thank you. Best, RJ

Thank you, Khaizal. We appreciate the positive feedback and especially appreciate the willingness to share the word with your friends as we grow our new channel. Stay tuned for more! Best, RJ

Thank you, Mike. I waited a long time to get the surgery (three years) but finally bit the bullet earlier this year and I'm already starting my comeback. I was on the range yesterday, first time since surgery, and was feeling great. Stay tuned for more content and, finally, a lot of full swing content. Cheers, RJ

Thanks, Michele. I appreciate that feedback. We are actually trying to balance the "pace" of the videos with the amount of information I want to impart. It's a trick to get the balance right! Best, RJ

Awesome! I'd love to hear how it goes. It's really helpful when I get confirmation of advancement from viewers, to that's not just an idle invitation. Cheers! RJ

Absolutely, Zeeb! You are spot on and appreciate the viewership. Stay tuned as we are working on a lot of new content for advanced players who know these subtleties. Best, RJ

Love to hear it, Michele. In my opinion (and 40+ years of experience), it all begins with attitude. I appreciate the feedback on this video, in particular. Doesn't seem like many golf channels are covering this topic and that's a shame. Glad it could help. Best, RJ

Wow, this is very high praise, which I appreciate greatly. I've heard many have the same feelings about previous lessons, but it's never a bad idea to get out there with a coach -- and just be patient until you find the right one. They are out there! And, while I don't think anything is a substitute for hands-on, in-person training, I'm more than happy to be your virtual coach at any time! ;-) Glad you are enjoying so much of the content. Warms the heart. Stay tuned, because we have a lot more coming down the pike. Best, RJ p.s. Let me know how the setup and pre-shot routine plays out for you.

Thank you, John. This comment means a lot to me. I'm a Certified Adaptive Golf Instructor by the SMGA specifically for helping wounded veterans with their game. I'm certainly honored to be able to help you with your own work and activities with veterans. I'd love to hear back from you on how the tournament went. Of course, I appreciate the kind words for my videos, too. Stay tuned because we have a lot more content coming soon including some specifically designed for players with physical injuries. Best, RJ

@RJ Golf we shot -8 in which the winner got -20 so we got smoked but it was just a fun event and my group of 5 hat 1 man which was our best golfer today was 67yo.. that's absolutely awesome you support us Veterans as the support is dwindling but are still some absolutely awesome people in this world that make our lives more enjoyable and for me it's a day I actually smile and have fun.. Keep up the great work and content boss!!

Thanks, Charles. Glad this could serve as a good reminder for you. Btw, in addition to better ball striking, remember this also will reduce tension in the arms and hands for a more consistent and repeatable takeaway. Best, RJ

Thanks, Robert. We put a lot in this video, for sure, and I hope it will help you improve your setup. Thank you for being part of our audience and stay tuned for a lot more coming this summer. Best, RJ

Thanks, Mike. Appreciate the positive feedback and hopefully some of this will help you improve your putting. Stay tuned for more coming soon! Cheers, RJ

Thank you for the question, Cole. Short answer... yes, and I certainly do a little myself. However, I don't always do this and I'd consider this a personal preference. It depends on various factors, such as conditions, the lie, slope, etc. but the best thing to do is get out there and try several variations and see what feels best for you. Also remember, the more loft, the more left you have to aim to hit the ball straight. Let me know how it goes. Best, RJ
