So glad to hear that. Hope it helps.
Thank You for taking the time to post these vids. Ms. Low.
Matt the Golfsidekick convinced me fitted clubs will help. Can not wait....👍
Yes! Good idea! Thank you
You make so much sense Michelle.
Thank you
Well done Michele. Also appreciate the way you respond to the questions in the comments section. Professional work.
Will do my best. Thank you
What's amazing is that you put out a video the day after the exact issue that I'm having the day before.
Haha... don’t stress too much on the issues. Just work on it and always remember the good shots
Michele thanks for your words of wisdom. Brilliant as always 👌👍
Thank you!
Thank you Michele, make me feel much better, this is a difficult sport to play good and keep consistency. Your advices are all good.
So glad. Thank you
Yeahhhhhh its difficult to consistent with our game but what i've learned from u, forget the bad swing and just enjoy your golfing time... it really can change your game. Thanx Michele
Yes it does! You got it.
Thanks Michele! You put it on the point. Brilliant as usual. My golf was a disaster the last time. Hope to be better the next one! Best regards from Italy.
I hope so for you too! Take care
You are a great instructor! Thanks a lot.
Thank you
Another excellent video! Thanks Michele!
Thanks Johnny!
@@michelelowgolf7501 I use the DAPS approach to keep my stats on my score card:
D: driver - left, right or center
A: approach - on green, left, right, short or long
P: putts - how many putts per hole
S: score - what was my score on the hole
Well....I haven’t played golf with you but I can vouch for your training video’s! They are consistently good! Very good!
Thank you
Practice and the wright technique really helps me..Thx Michelle :)))
Yes :) thank you
Thanks Michele, as a new golfer this is the content I'm looking for.
Thank You for all the hard work that goes into these posts🏌️♀️
Hope it helps. Thank you
Hi Michele, yes excellent advice. Relax, keep the basics the same, enjoy the moment, try not to think. One shot at a time.
You got it :)
Love your videos. Your a great instructor. Beautiful too!👍🏌⛳🇺🇸😀
Thank you so much!
Your such a chilled cool person. Thanks
her personality makes her so attractive!
Thank you
Thank you. Hope the video helps
Thanks Michele..like it..
So glad!
Hi Michelle, I have said it many times but I believe you offer the best coaching advice in UA-cam. I find if I’m super inconsistent it’s usually because I haven’t been practicing! You can’t get good at anything without practice. I have also invested in shots scope which offers myriad types of feedback and areas fro improvement. Like many others here I really look forward to your videos. Many thanks
Thank you so much. Hope the videos help.
Thanks. I agree with you, I need to practice perennial with the goal in mind. You are awesome
Thank you! You got it!
Gréât tips - that mày be equally applicable in other aspects of our lives
Hope it helps. Thank you
Excellent advice, also sticking to a good routine helps.
You are right!
Michele, I live in California near Sacramento. Yesterday I was practicing putting and was talking with a lady who was setting up a practice area for the junior golfers. She told me she is from Malaysia, I told her that I’ve been watching Michele Low on UA-cam. She said she used to play against you years ago, she had nothing but nice things to say about you. Her name is Mika (not sure of the spelling) Small world. Thanks for the great videos:)
I remember Mika from tour but I don’t think she is from Malaysia. That’s so nice of her. Please send my warmest regards when you see her again :)
Short, sharp and to the point! Good video..main take away...,"don't get pi**** off.." 😄
Have fun!
it is so long to wait for your new videos. watching your video become my daily routine during MCO, haha.
Aww... thank you so much for your patience and support
@@michelelowgolf7501 would you mind to share your story how to become a PRO? Or any about your experience.
: )
Great topic to bring up in your as part of your session. 👍
Thank you!
I am a high handicap, I remembered the good shots where each shot came out exactly as I planned it. I feel good when I can walk off the course with 1 or 2 par, plus a few good approach shots. THEN.. I practice more on where I didn't do well. ie. Driver off the tee, 75 to 50 yards approach shots and putts. Practice is work..... play is for fun. Nicely said Michele... "Enjoy the GAME when you are on the course".
Yay!!! So happy to hear this
Nice practical Advice to be more consistent
Thank you
Love it
Thank you
Thanks😎
Thank you
Playing golf is fun! Except for taking manual stats, which is why I always intend to do so, but admittedly never do.
Maybe I'm over thinking it and next time can try just tracking fairways hit and number of putts since I can put that on empty lines if I take a scorecard for myself.
Keep making golf fun for us Michele!
Yes, we tend to over think. Is just you and the target. Nothing else.
Love you!
Thank you
Yes. Checking my set up.
I think there was the problem.
Thank you and take more care 😷😷🤘🤘🏌️♂️
So glad! Hope it helps. Thank you
Thank You
Thank you
For me is really "all" about flexibility.... the change of how i END the swing = lil stiffness in my back... neck... shoulder.... even around the knees causes so many errors/problems to finish my swing freely. Golf is a game of million micro errors coming together as one big one = 1cm off at setup OR less turn back/finish CAN cause draws/fades or even thin/thick hits.... so for me to feel more like "myself" in my swing is about staying fresh and flexible around ALL areas that make any twist or turn ;))))) Love ur videos as always .... such great reminder of things... wake up calls ;)
Thank you so much. So glad you understand your body so well.
I am playing against myself and it helps. I am lucky that there are a few pros in our club are kind enough to play with me. A great learning lesson, Don’t expect too out of every game, Every game is different so is the positioning of the cup. The elements is another factor. Just enjoy your game, You are only good yesterday.
You got it :)
Great stuff to remember cause golf can be frustrating to the point you don’t want to play anymore having information about others having bad days makes it a little better lol
You are right. Enjoy golf :)
Hi Michelle, I'm not sure if you mentioned this anywhere, but one thing I find that can help with consistency is to have a set preshot routine (for example when teeing off or putting). Keep up the good work and thanks for all your tips.
Yes you are right! Thank you
I feel this so much. Everything but my putting has been inconsistent for nearly 5 weeks.
If you guys want to track your misses or how you are performing with the aspects of your games I highly recommend golf apps like 18Birdies and GolfPad. They key stat data you can revisit and you can save your practice routines too.
No worries, try starting with recording your stats first.
@@michelelowgolf7501 I have been for 7 weeks. It's helped a lot
Like your videos and how you explain things. My biggest problem is that at times I get my weight to much on the front of the feet instead of the back
Spend your next practice focusing on this. Thanks
Love your Channel Michele... When I play my best golf is when I am NOT thinking about anything. Just talking with my buddies and knowing I am going to hit a good shot. Never been any good, Shoot in the high 70s on a good day but never felt like my ball striking was/is very consistent. How do I improve my ball striking? I will be in KL in a year or so and will be looking for lessons. Joe
So glad! Hope the borders open soon :)
That’s why I am amazed at how the tour pro could bring his/her A game to the course on 4 consecutive days.
Yeah! Is amazing right
Hi Michele, I like your video very much, please teach us some tips on putting, when follow through and when just hit or impact the ball. just hi or impact the ball sometimes is very accurate.
You mean more detail on impact for putting? I do have a video on putting. Thank you
being consistent requires best mind and body state that can last long enough to complete 18 holes, especially your strong and positive mind, that's the hard part of the game.
You got it man! Thanks
Being a recreational golfer I am finding the main curse to becoming a better ball striker is I am constantly making changes to improve my swing. U have to own your own swing and it works-keep it.
Exactly! You got it
To be consistent I stick to the same routine for every game both before and after. Eg, like getting to course early, loosen up at the range, short game before tee off and proper diet. It really helps, to stay focused even on a bad day.
You got it! Thank you
Nice
Thank you
Always think present....one shot at a time
You got it!
I am just having trouble avoiding a big number, usually in the first few holes. I think it’s due to the (not so ideal) Spring conditions (chilly, windy, wet, grass not fully grown in yet, or mowed).
For example, yesterday carded a 9 on the 5th hole, a tight par-5. Two GREAT shots, middle of fairway, then my 9-iron took a bad bounce into the bunker. Wet sand, left it in the bunker. Then soft sand over the green. Thick rough, left chip short. 3-putt! 😩 Argh! Parred last three holes of front-9, but the damage was done.
Looking forward to June. Always do our best scoring in June & July. Courses are finally getting in mid-season form. Now I need to. 🙄
Hopefully the weather gets better for you soon. Take care and have fun on the course :)
Hi Michelle, thanks for an amazing channel, great tips and you are currently my fav YT coach! Anyways, i've been struggling with inconsistency especially almost always on my front 9, most of the time I have a 6 - 9 shot difference between the front and the back. Is it something that most people experience? Do you have any tips on how to at least eliminate this? Thank you !
1. Try to break down the course to 3 holes per round. Every 3 holes is a new game.
2. Make you are not hungry and well hydrated.
3. Enjoy the round. Stay calm.
@@michelelowgolf7501 Thank you for the reply, will definitely try this tomorrow.
My game is literally Hyde and jekyll. I've been this way for years and now I just except it
Have fun. Golf is always up and down. Enjoy the ride
I can tell when I am hitting well when the club feels like I am swinging a rope with a weight on the end. Oddly also feel like I am pulling at the end of the swing. 🙂
Good drill :)
I find the biggest problem is if you get a bad bounce (or two!) or you play a poor shot it’s easy to give up on the round, some have said to separate into groups of 3 holes, what do you think ?
I totally agree with it. I did mentioned it in one of my videos. Split the round to 3 holes each. Every 3 holes is a new game.
My problem since more than 20 years.😭🏌️♂️For the moment I have good long shots with the woods.
But shanking all irons.
Best regards and take care 😷😷
Ahhh... got to check the swing. Or sometimes is the set up. Thanks
Minimum 1 hour b4 tee off. Helps to get all the essentials done, mentally prepare, calm & focus..
Yeah! Thank you
Dont forget a fixed and reigious pre shot routine Helps a lot for me.
Yes you are right. Thanks
This is exactly my question again and again 😢 and sometimes it makes me so disappointed 😞
I know it drives us crazy. Take it easy.
I guess our definition of inconsistent also changes with time. I’m a beginner and I complain that my scores range from 100 to 120. My friends are better and they complain that their scores range from 95 to 105. The best player in my group is unhappy every time his score hits 86-88 because he usually scores around 80.
Yes! Most golfers are the same haha... just enjoy
Michelle... as the saying goes..... "Consistently inconsistent "... thats golf🙂
I know right 😂
high expectation is a killer of playing a round of sound game.
You are right
Hi Michelle, as a beginner, I think I can now better hitting the golf ball, however, it doesn't hit at the sweet spot consistently (with Irons). Is there any drills to improve this? (as the movement goes in golf swing so fast, we can't really check where it actually hits)... Thanks and sorry to bother you again.
Not at all. Will make a video on impact when I can get on the course again. At the mean time, you can try to work on your tempo and rhythm to improve your consistency. The more you practice the more solid you will hit it
When I win the next US Open, you will be the first in my Thank You list ^ ^
I used this video as a pep talk and Hybrid: The Versatile Weapon before my round today. Thank you!
Yay! Awesome!
Most of us are consistently bad until we learn to keep double bogeys off our cards. My scoring range is 85-94 with an average 5 doubles per round. I know I will be shooting sub-80 rounds again soon but will still have a 10 shot or more range in scoring.
Yes, just got to manage the round the better
This issue drives me crazy.....I can get close to breaking 80 one day and soon after I have trouble breaking 100
Don’t try to repeat the good rounds. Every round is a new round.
Correct3
Thank you
For me practice till you get tired and start making mistakes then go back to the basics - grip, stance, hinge and 123 rhythm.
I feel called out
You are not alone :) we just need to find a way to enjoy the game more.
Visit Dubai Michelle!!
I really want to. Hopefully this pandemic is over soon.
Nice attire 😬
Thank you
who is your cameraman?
My youtube partner :)
Your best round of golf will be followed almost immediately by your worst round ever. The probability of the latter increases with the number of people you tell about the former.
You are right 👍
@@michelelowgolf7501 I love your videos! You are a fantastic teacher!
Jag har inte heller nått planerat men
Check out this Danny Maude channel, which I follow you can get some great ideas, I know you can transform his lessons into a better and simple presentation . Enjoy watching your channel.
Thank you :)
The less I play the more consistent I become 🤪
Hahaha because you expact less?
@@michelelowgolf7501 exactly, less expectations & your mind and body react better when you are more relax, well that's me I guess
Yesterday 70++ ... today 90++.. wat a joke.. aarrgghhhhh
Drives you crazy right?
@@michelelowgolf7501 feels like breaking my club.... 😅😅😅
Girl, r u mind reading me?
I hope so :)
50% of the video you repeating the question. I thought there would be a solution or a good suggestion but after watching 50% I stopped the video 😏
The solution was at the end :) just a thought. Thank you
Darren Clarke once shared something to the effect that you get about 10% improvement for the effort you put into practice. The point is golf is a challenging, stingy game, so don't let it beat you up. If you can find ways to practice effectively at home on a consistent basis, it will pay dividends, especially if it's during the "off" season when you're not playing.
You are right! Have fun
