"If you aren't breaking 100 you're swinging too hard" solid advice that not many want to talk about. It's not about how far you hit your irons, it's how CLOSE you hit them.
"Don't listen to the internet. I know I'm on the internet. But don't listen...t...tah...to people on the internet. Figure it out yourself." That was some funny shit after some great advice. Definitely going to listen to this person on the internet and finally break 100!
Just broke 100 the other day. what helped the most was taking an easy swing because 9/10 times when i would try to kill it, I would lose all control over where I wanted the ball to go.
Best advice I have is if you don’t like a certain club don’t spend months trying to hit it . Just sell it and buy a new one . I went through 6 dr8vers until I found the right one for me , also the idea of getting a fitting is fucking nonsense for plus 20 handicap . Play 3 rounds with a club and either keep it or sell it .
Ite the truth then once you find a swing n learn a course n with time you'll be able to attack on days n you'll feel like you can't miss ... gotta start from scratch with some things in life ....
I really struggle letting bad holes get to me, especially putting. It sucks getting a green in reg then 3 or 4 putting makes everything else i do right feel worthless.. any tips? 😅
@@UpToParGolf_ I feel you there with the going from a birdie chance to bogey. But for the mental side of things Id like to break it down into three categories. 1. Use the line in the ball. Pick a line to hit the putt. And then just tell yourself trust your read. I will literally say it out loud every time I'm over the ball Just try to put the best stroke on the ball as possible and don't think about anything else. Every putt is a straight putt. 2. Separate yourself from the result. Whether it's a bad swing a bad putt. We want to say I did bad rather than I am bad. One word difference but it plays a huge role on your own self-esteem. One is shaming yourself the other is of way to learn from bad result. 3. Just remind yourself that even if this hole didn't workout, I could be one hit away from The best result of my life. You can also watch the other video I put up about expectations in golf because I speak a lot about that as well! Hope that helps. And that it made sense.
This, right here. Excellent video and on point. Extra for the pros and idiots @100%. Hit as hard as you want, as long as you make perfect contact.... 🙂Play like this and you won't need back surgery and you will save a lot on lost balls. Great stuff.
I cant swing a wedge or iron but for whatever reason I can hit the driver around 9/10 times. This is horrible as all I do is add strokes in the close game.
@@cactusjack3059 if you can work on improving contact with your wedges. Your irons will improve too. At least mine did. I made a video of how I figured out all the problems with my irons and wedges if you have time to check it out
Par is just an artificial concept. If you're trying to break 100, your "Par" on a long Par 5 might be a 6 or a 7. That's the ego thing again, since why should your Par be the same as a golfer that regularly shoots in the 70's or 80's? If you relax, realize you have an extra stroke or 2 to get your personal par, you'll take a lot of pressure off yourself.
Once you've broken 100 a few times by playing smarter you will realise that it's actually really easy to shoot in the 90s. Agree with an awful lot of this video, along with golf sidekick and will Robbins scoring method there is everything you need to get under 100. If you can't break 100 following those 3 then youre either not following the advice or you have some huge skill deficiencies.
@@robertcourt8593 once I broke 100 for the first time and understanding how to actually just break 100 it was pretty hard to go back to shooting over 100 consistently. Because he realized just how many mistakes it takes to consistently shoot over 100. And how just paying attention slightly more You can easily shoot in the '90s or '80s
The thing is, golf side kicks advice on breaking 100 and 90 is pretty much everything you need to know. Unfortunately GS can be a bit of a douche at times.
@@clownbaby3877 I love golf sidekick. I think we need more UA-camrs out there and coaches talking about the mental side of golf more than the technical side. I just tried to translate a lot of what I do in my actual work with clients into golf strategies. In a pretty simple in general sense.

@@That_Cajun_Guy exactly. Once my miss on the course starts getting wider and wider it's always a sign for me that I'm swinging too hard.
Aim small swing hard. Drivers teed high will fly (l) 4:29
When it’s windy, swing easy. You’ll be scratch by next week! 15:46
Great video ! Where is this ? What course?

I’ve been playing for three years. Just this year I’ve broke into the 80’s. But by lots of sweat and hard work. Great advice you give.
Nice shout out to Golf Sidekick! Great video and thanks for the advice. Struggling for a few years as a 90-100 golfer. It's time to change things.

I don’t need to break 100, I’ve done that. But your video was well done fun and informative, as well as true. Subscribed!
Great video. Thanks!
Absolutely great advice
“Just hit three 170 yard shots…” 🤣 New sub!
Thanks for the good tips man will definitely think about this next time out.

My wife wants to know how I get poison ivy every time I play, told her I'm in the woods all the time.

@@GolfPsychologist I will definitely give it a watch
how much do you think it would cost to re epoxy a head that broke off one of your fairway woods?
Very nice content. I’m just getting started and i try to kill the ball every time I’m up.
@@Zuk2002 I dropped so many shots when I started to swing gently and smooth tempo.
Biggest thing you can ever do to help your game is just swing easy. Seriously as a beginner swing 50 percent on every shot focus on good contact.
I like ur channel

How do you do the shot trace in the video? What software do you use?
@@UAPch shot tracer. They have a version for the phone as well
@@GolfPsychologist thanks!
good video
@@spfunk8812 thanks!
What if u can drive 250-300 in play but suck at irons and chipping
Then you know what exactly you need to work on.
