"Golf is a hard enough game already." LOL 😆
it sure is
But he's so right lol
Installing golf apps in your phone is always a good idea..you can see the whole course bird eyeview..easy for golf courses you never play before
I have struggled with par 3's over the years. This season i started teeing it up lower and trying to hit low tarrif shots. It has made such a difference!
Good work Brian
You probably dont give a shit but does anybody know a trick to log back into an instagram account..?
I was stupid forgot my account password. I love any tricks you can give me
@Enrique Benson instablaster :)
@Dariel Lian I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im trying it out now.
Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Dariel Lian it worked and I now got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thank you so much, you saved my ass!
Needed this video, great insight into different club options for different shots you can take.
I always use a broken tee. It gives it a slight bit of height but it's not so high as to hit the top part of the face. It also helps for hitting the center of the face. For me anyway
Broken tees for par 3s😉
Yup, and there are always a couple broken tees around the tee box ( should be picked up I know, but most public courses they aren’t).
Yeah we all been sucked into the "easy par 3" then before you know it you're racking up a 6. Great advice matt and will bear it in mind.
Gordon Mcshannock I’ll take 6 on a par 3 any day of the week. Got a 9 the other day, Absolute shank show!
Thanks Gordon.
@@Falcon-15 oh iv hit 9s too but I haven't in a wee while. Keep going and it will get better.
Par 3s are my toughest par hole, I dread every single par 3.
And don't you just love those lovely par 71s replacing a 5 with a 3.. oof

Such a big help as par 3 holes are such a weakness, will definitely look at minimising risk and use traffic light concept
Great video, saw you on videos with Peter and Rick, I'm newly following them and now you, I think it's a great service you provide and you all make it very enjoyable and entertaining while at the same time giving proper and accurate information, thank you and looking forward to watching all your videos in the coming weeks,
Excellent video as always. Your idea of having different coloured flags is a good one and one I always use depending on the severity of the hole. Play away from the hole if the severity of the miss is too great. You must also know your club yardages aswell. Play for the easiest part of the green which suits your shot shape. Have a good weekend and look forward to your next video.
Matt， great video！it is very helpful! Thank you 😊
Great tips as usual matt. I think I used to underestimate the par3s but after developing an occasional shank with my irons, a par3 strikes fear in to me 🙄🙄
Thank you. Going to play the par 3 'executive' tomorrow and work on these concepts 👍
I like your videos. Very helpful as a beginner. Just enough information to make me remember it without going into too much depth and making me get bored. 🍻
Thanks Matt - a really good and simple reminder - I’ll take this to the course tomorrow 👍 👏
awesome, let me know how it goes.
Thanks for the tips!!
I never underestimate par 3s. Both courses I play at have real card wrecker opening holes. Happily this year my par 3 stats have been really good, makes a huge difference on your score.
Good point on club selection, over a season I can be between three different clubs depending on wind and run on the course.
Great tips. That is a super smooth swing to be getting that much distance from an 8 iron! Looks effortless.
This is a rarely discussed aspect of course strategy for some reason, so this is great advice. Nothing upsets a golfers equilibrium like taking a four or five on a "simple par 3". Good video Matt (and well struck!).
Thanks Fred, glad it helped
It is often the same: if you want less you get more. Playing with a strategy helps avoiding mistakes. Great tips, thank you Matt.
My pleasure!
Top tip, I always fall into this, it's always an 8 iron unless the wind is against me. Thanks Matt super video. congrats on 85.5k come on 100k
Glad to help
My new on line instructor, thanks Matt , can't wait to get back out there
Good times thanks.
Great advice sir.
Great advice 👍🏼
Always great information. Keep up the good work.
Much appreciated!
Thank you for the tips.
Great instruction Mat
Good simple advice.
Thanks Matt - really good and simple advice.
Glad you liked it Joe.
I've been practicing par3s a lot this year and have been smashing them just recently.
That was really good.
Been golf today and definitely been putting my ball to high on a tee so Gonna change that seemed like I was hitting it a club short was going that high 😂
One interesting thing is that the handicap for most par 3's are usually the highest on most courses. I've always thought that a bit short sited because the are sometimes the hardest holes on the course.
thanks for great tips, was always teeing up too high for my irons
Thanks for the tips! Have a great day.
You are so welcome!
I play a lot of par 3 nine hole courses so I am very used to them. I find long par 4’s the most difficult.
Great lesson Matt as usual excellent content. 💪
More to come!
Good grief the tee height is a massive tip ! I've always used a red castle tee for my irons now I understand why some don't always reach while other shots did with the same club leaving out the slope and wind factor .. I'm changing my tees to wooden ones long & short thanks Matt great video xx
Great video! Par 5s and par 3s are my favorite. Jack Nicklaus always said that he rarely went after the flags on par 3s because center of green was always the safe shot. Loving the tips and would enjoy a video on selecting a PGA pro to learn from. Currently I am 0-3 as I have gotten good information from them but never want to work with them again due to their personality.
just spend some time researching one, probably some who has a presence online that you can see what they are like and what their personality is like,before you go to them.
@@Mattfryergolf thank you for the advice! Keep up the fantastic content, only wish I was in the UK so I could work with you or Mr. Shiels
Matt, question for you. Should we go a club longer off a tee with an iron as opposed to hitting that same iron off the deck? That's assuming the ball's not teed too high in the first place. I struggle hitting irons off a tee.
Do you have any videos explaining the how, when, and why we might use a hybrid club?
When I tee up a short iron shot I usually make the tee height line up with the bottom groove on my club, I'm not a pro but this works for me.
I learned when I first started to play, Par 3's are always the hardest. I've also always aim for the big open spot not the flag pole. Yes, would like to be as close as possible but, easier to putt off the green than it is the higher grass.
As for using "tee's", it depends on how I want my shot to be, for me, I tend to have a heavier club, tee up high, have the ball drop almost straight down if I have to go for a "tight" shot. Am I correct, doubtful but, it works for me, may not work for you or others and vice versa. I'll start trying to lower my tee's from now and see what I get. Great video, cheers :)
Great advice! Give me a par 5 any day!
There is a par 3 executive (All holes are Par 3) 9-hole course near where i live and it is actually considered one of the hardest course in the area.
Great tips :-)
This video is so true.
thanks Nick, glad it helped.
My club course opens as a 155m par three. No shot up my sleeve and very intimidating. Good content here.
I specialise in taking 5 shots on par 3s. Really useful video...but what was distracting you to your right? I did some media training in the dim and distant past. Rule number 1...dont look away from the lens! This is why many politicians look shifty...(and they may well be). Looking forward to getting on the course and practicing these tips. Good work!
I always use a red castle for 5 irons,32mm. May drop down as i'm sure I'm hitting it high off the face as you say. Thanks
yeah the little green one would be better.
The red castles I have seen are tiny. I have been using blue or even yellow sometimes. Maybe I will try red.
Hi Matt. I enjoy your videos but would you agree that a high handicapper might be better always aiming for the centre of the green ,allowing for wind etc?
he is absolutely correct, a few year ago in AZ I played a 90 yards par 3, very easy shot (NOT), I had 6 on it :-( , do not underestimate par 3s
great tips matt, par 3,s are my undoing as i nearly always come off with a 4.!!!
I struggle on par 3's , if it is a medal round a 4 is never a bad score
I'll take 4s all day the I'm playing lately.
I use those Castle tees which are 1/4 to 1/2 inch high
Thanks For this. Can you put the tracer lines on your vids please. Not sure it helps you but it's certainly entertaining
You're allowed to position the ball two (2) club lengths behind the tee markers. Use that area to find the most level ground and better target angle. Even a better shot angle can be found within the width of relatively narrow markers.
Two club lengths actually, according to the rules
@@jasonstutzman9094, Thank you for the correction. I'll edit my post to reflect that.
Good advice, I see alot of folks put the ball on uneven ground up front when there's level ground 36 in back
Your line for teeing up showed as being in the middle of the tee marker, it's actually the forward most point of the tee markers.
I'm literally about to "FRY" some food. haha thought that was funny
no
"Just because it's a little bit shorter doesn't make it an easy ride" - me, to my wife last night
I also tell my wife this. She usually just rolls her eyes.
Did you pay the hole some respect?
@@John-ej2oj 😂😂😂💀💀
😂😂😂
I saw Arnold Palmer on the Johnny Carson show back in the 70's and the question came up about teeing the ball up on par 3's. Arnold responded this game is hard enough so whenever your allowed to tee it up, tee it up and forget about what your seeing the pros do.
"Air has less resistance than dirt. " Jack Nicklaus
Love par 3s up to about 175 to the middlw. 200y P3 annoy me as it shouldn't need a rescue or 5w to reach a P3
Matt why do you put your right hand on the club first ? Is there an advantage to that or is it just habit ?? Any help appreciated!!!
Par 3s are my nemesis. Great video Matt 👍🏼
not anymore!
Cracking video, I always play par 3's with getting par in mind. I aim for centre of the green with a thought of 2 putting. I try an get my birdies on the par 4 an 5's, because I know I've got more chance if correcting my bad strikes down the fairway
that's a great strategy
I always play for a 5 tops on the par 3’s so I don’t let not hitting par get in my head for the round and come the longer holes I aim for par or birdie to pull my score back anything nearer par on a par 3 I’m more than happy with I find them the most difficult holes as there’s less room for error
It will be 4 at worst now 😉
Matt Fryer Golf to be fair mate I played yesterday and hit 3- 4’s and 1- 5 on the par 3 holes 👌 took that one shot off the par 3’s already give or take
Great tips. Thanks for sharing.
Here's a little tip for you...get yourself some sunglasses mate! You need them when you're staring right at the sun!! ;~)
So true . I hate par 3 holes
Three great tips Matt; most of the par 3s on my course are nightmare to the average golfer
Really like the red / amber / green approach; I've been trying that for some time with good results
Cheers
Watching yours and others lesson vids is so much more enjoyable with no ads...
That like someone you work for saying, we really appreciate you working for us when we don’t have to pay you. Ads are part of how he makes revenue for him to make these videos 🤫
@@gonebutnot4gotten94 how exactly do you think YT is able to pay people like Matt to put up content exactly...? It's from people paying for ads to be put on YT and by people like me that pay not to see them. Glad I could clear that up for you.
Glad you like them!
“Tee peg” such a fun thing to say honestly 🤣🤣
Hahaha I cought myself calling them tee pegs to my son he was looking at me kinda funny.
The par 3 at the course I play at are terrifying no where to miss left and right ob and they are back to back no drop area 😢
Missing one: don’t get fooled by the tee markers, that often aim away from the target...
Just look at those divots on the bottom right of the screen. What were they aiming at?
That’s why for broken tees get them on the tee box on the par 4 or 5 before
What brand of clothing do you wear .... really like the white and black pullover
Thats calvin klein golf 🙌
Great video. I’d also add another bit of humble advice. And that is to be honest with yourself about how far you actually carry each club. Leave the ego in the car park with your AirPods. I see way too many people trying to absolutely hammer an 8 iron and mess it up, rather than a controlled swing with a 7 or even a 6 depending on if the flags at the back of the green.
So be honest with yourself, forget about impressing your playing partners with pulling a shorter club than them, and impress them instead with a smooth swing and an accurate shot followed by a birdie putt!
That's a great point xander.
Don't top it don't chunk it don't hit it in the water don't hit it in the woods don't hit it in the weeds don't hit in the bunker.✌️⛳🏌️
Great simple advice we forget every round Think I will start using the term peg instead of tee, give me a European edge
You know it Randy!
I use lofted woods on 3 pars! They fly high and land soft and you get distance!
I'd also suggest that, if it's a shot hole or conditions, (howling wind etc.) make it a much harder hole than normal, don't be embarrassed about laying up on a par three.
I played a long par 3 recently by 7I short of the bunkers, LW over the bunkers and dropped 3 ft from the flag. Made the put and went away happy.
if it keeps the score down, go for it.
Sound would be good
Personally don’t use a tee very often 7 iron on down
Personally i play to the middle or back of the green, never attack front pin placements. Also aim for the widest part of the green.
How high should a tee be for a wood??
In general You should have half the ball past the top of the club at adress
like INB4 2 said, but can depend on your angle of attack also
Why do some golfers not use a tee on par 3s? I see no advantage to it. Is it a macho thing?
I get sucked in every time on par threes let my guard down got at pin and walk off with doubles love this vis ty Matt 👍
Think the flag system is the one for you then!
For the average golfers I always tell them par 3s are the easiest par 4 you will ever play. Get greedy and you can make 6 and blow up your round pretty easy.
Used tees, they re perfect. I don't know why people generally don't use them on par 3s
My score cards are littered with double and triple bogies on short par 3s. They always kill my good rounds.
Why do I hit most greens (60+%) as a PAR 3 from pretty much any distance...but lower than 30% from the fairways? I cannot figure it out. I've got 5 holes in one...but last time I holed out...was at least 25 years ago.
Imagine this video in 3 years from now. "...welcome back to a brand new video" 😂 Great content though!
I'd be laying up from the right side of the green
Not anymore, if you follow these steps.
I prefer par 5's. Hate par 3
I can get to the green easily. My short game is crap
Absolutely bunkers
Personally, I think the reason the pros don't have a great par-3 scoring average is because the courses they play on make most of them unfair. I would have to hit driver most of the time, and I still might come up short on some. There are some short par-3s, but they are generally very dangerous holes, like 17 at Sawgrass or 7 at Pebble Beach. If the pros usually encountered 145-yard par-3s with little danger and greens that weren't rock-hard, their scoring average would be under 2.5.
Not unfair, just difficult. Either they are very long, or have lots of trouble. Usually both. Pros are rarely hitting their approach shots on Par 4’s and 5’s the kind of distance they have to hit from on Par 3’s.
Tough
Matt doesn't mind a good peg
yeah, hate par threes.
Nr 4 : Hitting it into trouble off the tee, then holing your provisional and still searching for your first and walking of with a 5...
that would be some par!!
that would be some par!!
@@Mattfryergolf no, I was referencing the one time one of your lessons did that; Hitting the first into trouble, holing the provisional but still looking for the first, finding it and ending up with a double bogey. I think you told that in a course vlog...
ill shoot a birdie and follow it up with a snowman on par 3 lol
