Seems like two club lengths lateral relief could have got you to a better spot than you demonstrated. That would have been closer to where your bag was.

Get a new video editor and mic.

Let's say you hit your drive to the right and end up on a cart path. Your nearest point of relief will be the spot on the golf course nearest to where your ball lies is that is not nearer to the hole and that gives you complete relief from the cart path. To determine that spot, you should use the club that you would have used if the cart path was not there. So if your ball on the cart path is 150 yards from the hole and you would normally hit a 7-iron, that is the club that you should use to determine your nearest point of relief

Very well explained.

Anchoring does nothing. If there is any unfairness it is left arm position. That can be used to block out blade twisting. It teaches one to go under and not around through impact. Many touring pros use it for that purpose during practice only. My make rate from six feet is 100 out of 100 anchored or not anchored. And it never made any difference to the leading Senior winner. Me either. Again, the ease of left arm blade twist lockout could be considered cheating by some if they knew how easy that is. Some top college putting coaches teach this as a method of practice only. I was taught this by an active touring pro myself. He practices blade twist lock out one hour a day with the long putter. Uses the reg short putter on the golf course. He was one of only four people under 25 to lead into the final round of the U.S. Open. He could play.

How difficult is it to flatten that exact model phantom 11 long putter?

Great lessons, thanks 😊

Why the hell would you want to go back to the tee if you can place wherever you want in the fairway being that much closer to the hole but taking the same amount of penalty strokes? 🤔

11.1a only applies to stroke play? What if we are playing match play

Thanks coach.

I’m gonna give this another try. I have a long putter. But I have been just a little off with the standard putters. I’m hoping for the best. Thanks for the rules clarification

Thanks Andy

Or, as long as you're not in a competition, who gives af. This is just annoying, most people just play golf for fun, nothing fun about this. If you didnt intend to hit it, just replace and keep playing.

Great demonstrated example thanks

I never want to play with someone who makes me measure my free relief.

My opponent ended up losing both his first ball and provisional ball. He took a drop on his 1st ball without regard for the second, so he's hitting 3. Is this correct?

Hi. What about on a tee? Same? - even though an obvious practice swing or even just starting to line up moves the ball.

My ball was in a bush a foot from cartpath, an official said first step is to drop on the cart path, then from there drop to the nearest point of relief...I argued that no where in the rules of golf does it have you dropping in a concrete cart path.. what's right?

Thanks for clarifying these various rules. But next time please fix that microphone.

wow thanks andy!

Good video but intros wast the viewers time

What's the ruling? I hit my 3rd shot and both me and my caddie thought my ball landed in the yellow penalty area. So I took a drop behind the yellow line and hit my 5th shot. However, my playing partners informed me after that my 3rd shot went over the penalty area and to the left rough. I was told to go on with the current ball and incur a 2 stroke penalty. How does the rule apply to this?

Great video. Easy to understand. Thank you.

When taking unplayable in the bunker, can the player rake the bunker prior to dropping? Not to improve lie but to restore the condition of the sand.

Can I pick up my ball more than once whilst the marker is in position on the green?

Great video, huge thanks!

I have always struggled with the longer irons feeling like I could not square up the face. It was moving at the top like you said. It’s a night and day difference now. I can even hit a 2 iron. Thanks for the tip.

Turn the music off please!!

Firm believer. Low for control

GREAT tip; Andy.

if the ball is laying on rocks underneath and close to the tree, wouldn't you consider that an "unplayable lie" ?

This just inspired me to get a lesson from you.

Can a person lift their ball while your putt is moving so it won't hit it? Both on the green.

You need to show what you CANNOT do in order to have a comprehensive video.

Good video, but on the future only have music during the intro and outro... great vid otherwise.

Does this rule apply when the ball is so embedded that you can no longer see it, but you are certain or almost certain that it hit a specific spot? There's a mud hole of a course that we play occasionally that is open all winter regardless of rain, and you can easily hit a wedge 50 yards, land it just shy of the green, and have it end up 6 inches plus underground, dead center fairway. It happens probably 5+ times a round per person. I know another rule specifically lists some abnormal ground conditions like temporary water that allow for a free drop, but it doesn't specifically list mud. Every article and forum I find on the matter seems to be split 50-50 on the ruling there haha. Curious on your opinion!

Best ifo I seen so far. straight to the point,

Im 6'4" and hate putting because its so uncomfortable and makes me feel a bit dizzy. Gonna try one of these out for sure

Would abnormal ground conditions include a muddy area without water and the rest of the course is dry

Thank you. Very well explained.

This a crucial and subtle concept on the golf swing. If you don't manage your center of gravity properly, the golf swing requires more effort and results in inconsistencies. To manage the center of gravity properly makes for a smooth effortless swing. This video deserves more than 4l.5K views. CG is something you don't hear a lot about.

You are on a course by yourself. Kick it over and play your shot.

Come on, dude. First you turn towards the fairway.

C'mon man- Fescue is easy compared to thick Bermuda.......good video though.

You forgot to mention a very important white line.

You use one cause you suck!

have a look at Brian Sparks easiest swing in golf!

Thank you Andy. I found this sport through the PGA HOPE program last year after I was disabled for back injuries in the Navy. This program has taught me how to play with my back and it’s gotten me back outside. Thank you for working with us vets.

Hi Andy, I have a question based on your scenario in which you took relief from the sand after the cart path relief. What if, after you found your NPR from the cart path and then the sand, you then took your club one length relief area from NPR, AND THEN found another obstruction such as a sprinkler head, than didn't interfere from your NPR BEFORE taking your one club length relief area. The question is would you then get ever further relief from that sprinkler head? I don't think that you would because you have found your NPR from the original obstruction(s). If they did get further relief, the player would be hopping across the course from one obstruction to another. It's not real clear in the rules or definitions, but a cause of heated debates.
