      16min in you used ronseal and went through the green, I'd have used 5 or 6 iron to clear bunker and run on to the green leaving 2 puts for par or a possible birdie

    What a beautiful morning to play golf. I would have made basically all the same shot selections. I would have missed my drive because of the groundskeeper without a doubt for the same reasons, probably would have went left when I was in the trees, at least today I would because I'm a OMP student. Happy days, great video once again, thank you Golf Mates.

    Liam, you might look at the white stripe on your driver at contact v set up v swing path. Lots of variables. I’m a talker like you. I’ve REALLY had to get myself to slow it all down and clear the mind of anything. Tough job to do commentary and play. Thank you for a very fun channel.

  • @martinwallingford3773
    @martinwallingford3773 4 роки тому +8

    Liam, try something different with the driver. I noticed you have a weak right hand grip try a stronger grip, also your feet are wide open. close the back foot to where it is perpendicular to your line, once I did this no more weak right drives for me. It will give you a better base to get your weight shifted to the left. I also set the left foot slightly forward of the right to encourage a draw, but I never do I just hit a straight ball or a slight fade with this strategy. I'm not a professional but I have been playing at a 5 or less for over 25 years. My philosophy is if it is not working mix things up. There is one thing you do that I feel is helpful for anyone and that is calling your shot before hitting it, it indicates you are visualizing what needs to be done. Good luck.

    Hi Liam. Thanks for GolfMates. Your clips have made an enormous difference to me during my recovery from surgery.
    I have heard you tell us that your golf pro is advising you to keep your hands down. I have noticed that the last movement for you, before your backswing with all shots except chips and putts, is to lift your hands. This seems to have something to do with you pushing shots to the right.
    I'm just a mug golfer, so I will not be offended at all if you totally ignore this comment. However, there seems to be a connection.
    I love what you are doing. You're a good man, and you have my admiration.
    Could you consider doing a mixed group in some of your future videos?
    Thanks mate,
    Lindsay McIntyre (Australian GolfMate)

    Liam, one thing I am learning from you is that accepting a shot is key, was the best you could do is such a great way to play. You accept, plan and then execute the next shot. By relaxing I have reduced my average by 6 shots following your lead. Keep inspiring others kid!! Remember to imagine the positive outcome not talk the negative out loud :)

    Hey Liam, something I have been telling my dad the past month is to slow down and go through the routine (he’s not played in over 20 years). It really does make a lot of difference, when you do concentrate you do play well. Keep it up mate, loving all the videos 👌🏽🏌🏽‍♂️

      Peter, I've played it a few times (not a member) it's a lovely track.. And had a chat with Liam in the bar after, and OMP, great blokes. The reason why it looks empty or quiet is Liam goes out early to avoid getting in other golfers way.. I've seen him and josh jumonfrom holes so they have time to film etc. Everyone I've played it it's nearly always busy mid week and hard to her on at weekends. If you get chance you should try and play it.

How they are not put off by your continuous comments as they are about to play their shot is testimony to the friendships between you 😂. This was a really refreshing video, serious and focussed and you were saying many of the things that go on in my head during a round - you are the people's golfer. More of the more serious game stuff please Liam - I can really relate to it. How about a similarly serious match vs OMP? You might learn something from the maestro 😉

    Half way through your routine on your tee shot on the 2nd you said something along the lines of "Get a Par here and walk off". Go through that routine for that shot, hit it, find it just like you say. Really like these formats of video, great to see and watch.

    Joe - top camera work in difficult lighting conditions mate, class.
    Liam - love that new shirt.
    Feedback on your shots as I would've played them.....
    1st hole - 5w every time on that 2nd shot.
    2nd hole - top stuff by both you and Joe.
    3rd hole - should've been a 6 or 5 iron to fly 170 to 175 yards.
    4th hole - 60° every time, just open the face a little and flop.
    5th hole- great choice on the shot, just not the execution 😁. I would've used 4I to stay lowest and wide stance, play from back foot.
    6th hole - you were plain unlucky. Having said that, 60° from front foot and really go for it, better to be 2 foot long than short at all.
    Great stuff this video though.

    Hi Liam, enjoying your videos. It might be in the editing but you don't seem to mark your ball and give it a clean before holing out, we are now at that time of year when bits of mud are sticking to the ball. Also, do you use lines on the ball to help with your aim on short putts, long putts or both? Keep up the good work!

  • @thomasmarterer3304
    @thomasmarterer3304 4 роки тому

    Nicely played again Liam!
    But to my mind at the difficult par 3 hole you should better have taken a 6 iron to achieve wider entrance to the green for easier chipping.
    The hole afterwards I think "option 3" could have been a bit too over optimistic :-) ...and brought you in a position where you always tried to compensate, trying once in a livetime shots...
    Great Golf on the last hole!

  • @rowdyroddy519
    @rowdyroddy519 4 роки тому

    Hi Liam. Here's something I will guarantee to tame that over the top swing. "5 Times Parallel" is the name for it ... 5 times during a full golf swing, the shaft will be level with the ground. When the SHAFT is level with the ground... it needs to be pointed PARALLEL down the target line. That's it. If you swing the club thru those 5 times level/parallel orientations... you will be perfect on plane.

    • @rowdyroddy519
      @rowdyroddy519 4 роки тому

      If we look at your first shot with the driver in slow motion..... Your takeaway, and to the top is pretty good. club is passing through those first 2 times level/parallel. ..then look where it is pointed at the third spot... @ 2:40 it is pointed way left. So.. from the top of your normal swing.. the shaft has to come down to level and parallel to target... and then after impact the shaft will again be level with ground.. and should be pointed parallel down the target line, and the he 5th time as it passes through to the finish position.

  • @09Youba
    @09Youba 4 роки тому +1

    Liam you are not releasing the club head. Point the toe of the club at the target minnie second after impact.
    Other comments are correct. Hands lower at address, to far from the ball with longer clubs. turn hips faster to the left and let the hips bring the arms down. Good luck.

    4th hole. I might have thought about chipping to the slope of the greenside bunker. Thinking that it would kick left toward the hole. Hard to tell from the video of that's a good play or not.

    Liam, I would have gone with Ronseal with the first drive of the day. You get a shot on the first so a 5 is still 2 points Stableford. My thought is go with a club you feel comfortable with then ease yourself into the round.
