Hey, A lot of us old guys watch her videos! I'll be 68 next week and she's an absolute joy, she reminds me of my granddaughters, they're both dancers and musicians
ROLE MODEL for the younger teens
Hi Gabby, I gotta say thankyou so much for tagging us along with this lesson. I learnt soooo much listening to George who is just the bomb. I loved when you introduced him and let us know his accomplishments how he winced and looked slightly uncomfortable. The man is humble, and a giver. I've just been working on my swing and the advice i got that worked for me was to stay softer and more relaxed in the shoulders and I got a faster more reliable line in my swing. The Chipping advice from George was amazing. I can see why he is one of the best. A long journey for you that was totally worth while. Totally great content Gabby, keep learning, keep inspiring, keep giving. Bless you Gabby. Cheers.
Great video. George was surprised that an ‘old’ man watched your videos. I’m 77, just took up golf 6 years ago, and I love watching your videos. You are a Super Star. 🥰
I am a 63 year old man and love your videos. I am an avid golfer and used to be off a 2 handicap in my young days. Really enjoy your content.
Thank you so much!! Appreciate your support!!
I bet you do...
I’m 64. When I was Gabby’s age, I was working at that course on that very range. I love her enthusiasm.
Hi Gabby, you took us from the Kingdom to a place most public course players recognize a lot more! Hitting off a rubber mat and burnt out grass LOL.. Your ability to control your body and understand different movements and being able to implement them quickly is one of your huge attributes.Your awesome at it. One caution, your eyes and body can't really tell if you're faster or not. I would always use a ball speed timing device anytime you start tinkering with your swing and balance! Just to make sure you're striding in the correct direction, and the only way you're going to know that between swing to swing is if you're measuring it. George was impressed with your swing as I am always...Your big fan golf pro from Vegas.
Can't put
Please never change. I think they're a lot of people like me who enjoy more wholesome content. Some of the golf girls are raunchy. It's a breath of fresh air watching family friendly content. Thank you.
I appreciate that
Yeah sometimes its outright disgusting and they give women UA-cam creators a bad name! Gabby is leading the charge on it being about the golf, and will be the first big UA-camr who is the women's Champion!!!
I’ve seen a lot of golf lessons and this is one of my favorites, easy to understand, explains what the body is doing and what it needs to be doing, how to do it and the effect of it.
He keeps it simple
As someone previously in business myself I loved the promoting of someone for knowing how to treat his client base the right way.
When the student is ready, the teacher will appear! This is such a great video! Thank you for bringing us along, Gabby! It's always fun to watch Gabby and hear her talk her game because she loves golf so much! It's so cool to watch her get to bounce stuff back and forth with someone else who loves golf as much as she does! Thanks again!
Great informative video, have watched many of George's instructional videos and they have been very helpful. I am 71, play to a 14, still able to play 2-4 times a week ( can still walk 18 if I choose) and still love the game although frustrating.
Glad to see a lesson related to coordinating footwork with the timing of the swing. Thank you for showing his lesson.
🙏
Ahhh, tell George to watch it with the old guy comments 😂. I'm 64 and I watch your videos multiple times. 😊. I'll keep watching!
😂
Haha. My Dad watches her videos too and he's 64. We are both really happy for her when she has sweet accomplishments. We are both rooting for her!
57 year old checking in. This might be my favorite video so far. George is the man!! The future is SO bright for you Gabby! Looking forward to following your career! 🙌⛳
Thank you so much!
Hi Gabby, it was nice to meet you at the PGA Show this week. Thanks for letting me get a picture with you!
👊
Two things stood out to me. I’ve seen plenty of Ganka’s videos to know when he says Gabby has a great swing, he really means it. I’ve seen some of his lessons where the student has so many swing flaws and George is so passionate that he gives a lot of demonstration and information that it gets so overwhelming for the student. What makes Gabby a great student is she has great feels and for her to make the changes at full speed is so impressive. Just the fact that she did the work and drills from her previous lesson from George shows how good a student she is. The 2nd thing that stood out to me is her “Aha!” moment with that awkward wedge distance. Just think of how many times you have that shot in a tournament. Now that you know the correct technique, it’ll probably shave off at least a stroke from your average because instead of a 30footer for birdie, you’ll now have a 10 footer. Keep up the great work!
Thanks for tagging us along your golf lesson, Gabby. I've learned a lot myself!
the next 4 yrs gabby will be challenging & your distance off tees & fairways will come ,just keep doing what you're doing the old saying says if you build it, it will come so keep building your knowledge & yes i'm 65 now & i hit longer now then i did 30 yrs ago thanks to youtube content like yours ---- luv from australia
Worked there while on Agoura High golf team. 50 years ago! Brings back memories. Course was designed by Ted Robinson. I used to shag golf balls for Dave Stockton on that very range when he was home from the tour. So fun to watch. Randy Lein worked there…he became head coach at both USC and Arizona State.
who else thinks gabby is a great golfer 👇
Yeah,she has a bright future,in youtube and a golf career,if she goes that route.
There’s always room for improvement. Excellent learning video, Gabby!
with these kind of videos I always immediately want to hit the driving range and try some of the stuff I've just seen! But sadly it never turns out like in the video.... Great one again Gabby!!
👊 keep it going!
@@gabbygolfgirl haha I will! Golf is just too much fun to quit :)
I have been watching your videos for what seems like a couple of years now. Right from the first I was impressed by how nice and straight you hit the ball and how good your game is. Also how good your videos are. (especially for one so young, my daughter is seventeen and originally I thought you would be a bit older than her)
It's SUPER impressive how QUICKLY you can implement changes in your swing. 👍
🙏
@@DeeMak712 well aren't you a ball of encouragement. Not everyone can make changes so quickly. I think it's impressive no matter what you say.
@@DeeMak712 well since you want to argue, I will also reply. She DID make changes at that moment. Can more than 75% of golfers make and implement the changes a coach wants them to in one to two tries? I'm just saying that is impressive. Again this is my opinion. Since you edited your post I will also edit mine. I agree 100% she is going to do big things! 👍
@@DeeMak712 geeze you're still going on about this.
Okay how about this, it's very impressive that you can take what your instructor is saying you should do and be able to do that so quickly. Good job Gabby... That is impressive to me...and now Goteeem too. Is that better? 🤷♂️
@@DeeMak712 You're funny... I'll give you that. 😂
This coach is crazy simple in his explanations... Awesome video
Thanks so much videoing this lesson, I learned so much to fix some parts of my swing. You are so awesome and thanks for bringing me along on this lesson. Love your videos! I like how George is not about himself but a true coach for his pupils.
He is direct and to the point
Gabby, you are great golfer with temendous golf skills! You have a great future in front of you! What is also amazing to me are your awesome media & interviewing skills. For a 16 year old young lady, or anybody for that matter, your golf & media skills are off the charts!!! I always enjoy watching and listening to your golf videos!!! Thank you!!!
Amazing video! I learned more watching the first 29 minutes of this video than hours of scouring UA-cam.
When Gabby makes it to the LPGA, viewership is going to explode! Getting a lesson from THE MAN! I only have to travel 300 miles for a lesson with him, but I probably couldn't afford it🤐🤐🤐
Thank you, Gabby. I like how his methods, although I think your swing was always better than most anyway. Seems like he takes the best of your foundation and just makes small tweaks for great advancement. Pretty cool. Thanks again! 🙏❤️
What an awesome training video. Gabby is has the great ability to listen and put into action. Kudos.
Look forward to seeing you win championships young lady! You are so good and such a good listener/student. Kudos to your parents!
Thanks for sharing the lesson with us Gabi! 😊👏🏻😊👏🏻
Always entertaining and informative. It's fun watching your journey.
Thank you for supporting!!
Sick video- stay dialed girl! Swing looking pure. Really cool seeing George play a few holes too and bring the speed he teaches to the course.
Keep improving Gabby..swing looks great .. just need lil more distance as I saw you were noticeably behind those lpga players you recently featured. You got this ❤
🙏
Getting the *Tommy Fleetwood* follow through. That can only be a good thing!
🙏
Learning. Getting excited again about golf.
I AM A OLD GUY TOO You are a natural !!!!
Like your new swing. You are a great learner
Cant believe you have to leave FL to get a lesson? Got some of the best in the world! 2700 miles to hi off mats lol.
That coach is just amazing!!!!!; Gabby should always wear her glasses, why not, as she always looks delightful.
Your ball contact sound gives me goosebumps!
Hey Gabby I love your videos, people like George are very special helping so many young people.
Agreed
Her golf swing reminds me of Tommy Fleetwood's golf swing. I've also seen a lot of George's videos and I like the way he says "one more "
I’ll take that!!
This info here is gold….
Bottom line: if a golfer learns to stay center on their backswing then on their down swing they will naturally reflex center.
Excellent video and worth watching over again. At age 76 I get it! Thanks. Cheers🥂👍😊
George picking up the phone mid sentence 😂😂😂
One of the best instructional videos I've seen!
Considering how little he had to work with! 😂 Kidding!
Surprised that Gabby has trouble with the short (money) shots!.. they are more important than the long drive!
Players listen too much to the bits and pieces of the swing... like they're tinker toys to build with! Close your eyes and practice the swing and turn it until it feels good...then make adjustments!
Getting low on the swing... could be better explained by adding be more athletic! Golf is a athletic sport! Getting low bending the knees gets a more balanced stable foundation!
Always try and feel, and understand the swing if you want to improve!
Good afternoon Gabby. You’re very good girl with the positive energy. Good luck
I have found gabbygolf by accident just yesterday. Gabby is a star! I have seen Lydia Ko,s first lpga win when she was only 15 in Edmonton, Canada and what a player she was but sort of boring... I do hope Gabby makes it to LPGA one day and become a superstar. Great personality!
Wow! Thanks Gabby for a great instructional video. I'll have to make a note of that 30-50 tip you got and put it into practice!
I’m still practicing it
GG is a PIMP. Could watch him read the phone book (I know you likely don't get that reference) Gabby, you're pretty amazing how fast you just catch and apply his concepts in seconds. You're going to go far. Cheers, keep the content coming (BTW, i"m an old 50yo player)
Awesome! I should try the shorter shots with no wrist break also. I'm going to add George's squat to square move - adding to my lessons a couple of months ago.
I like him, he knows his stuff. Your swing is great. Just a few adjustments and you'll find the power you're looking for
GG and G, a twosome most likely to lose their head covers and range finders by the end of the round!😂 Great video!!
You're an incredible talent... and an awesome golfer. Your nickname suits you so well. I enjoy all your videos 😀. Thanks for sharing!
“Ever since I was little”.😂😂😂 She’s little now
great content gabby, thanks for sharing this!
You're so welcome!
Great post with Scoobie! Most important question: did you hit any onto the 101?
George is da man !!!
Hi Gabby, you are great, you have a new fan, hope one day you do a video explaining your L swing, it’s pure!
Never had a analytical Mind when I bring my kid to lessons they get it right away like you do. where I’m completely lost
This young lady is more self-aware than anyone I have ever seen before for someone her age.
If you ever want another perspective, another recommendation is Adam Porzak and Mike Pitt (Porzak Golf on UA-cam) near San Diego. They teach a lot of the top college players in Southern Cal and are fantastic.
Great video
George and the Bettinardi plug 🤣😂🤣 - he’s right though, I’ve got 2 🎉🎉🎉
Great info in this lesson! I was just watching videos of Micah Morris and Rory looking at that loading phase with driver to work on. Anyhow, I'm an old man compared to you Gabby. I'm not into any swag or style, BUT I really like your shoes 😂. I noticed the pink ones in one of the last video and these green ones. It's like your unique signifier
Gabby, Upping the shoe game! 👍
Great video,gabby,Killin it
Quite great, the best way on the ladder to an excelent golfer. Your are almost as good as him.
Interesting. Thanks for sharing!
Subscribed, you are a charismatic person, work to keep your enthusiasm and not turn into making videos just for views/money.
Wishing you great success!
Love the 9 iron chip under the tree!
Unreal
Great video, I enjoy everyone of your videos
Hope you have learn more frm George ….good God bless you ❤
Gabby seems way more genuine than the other women I see in the UA-cam. Golf world.
You could golf with anyone and i would watch.
George trying to step back from the camera to get a full bodyshot and demonstreate somthing and the cameraperson following him and keeping tight, lol
Soo much good information! 👏
LOVE THE SHIRT GABBY
Gabby, don't worry about distance. You're 16. You're physically only going to get stronger and stronger. It'll come naturally.
Heard you got called out for your hole in one giveaway. You owe nobody any explanation. You did something nice for your followers and anyone questioning your integrity should find something else to do with their time. Keep it up your showing the game to people that might not ever be exposed to it. Don’t change don’t get down because of some trolls. Congrats on what you’ve accomplished.
Thank you so much! That means alot! 🙏
@@gabbygolfgirl if heard a bit about this and it angered me. You are out here at 16 opening your life up to strangers to grow the sport you love. Some jackass is going to start rumors that you want to cheat people somehow. Please anybody who ever accuses you of this stuff needs to find a new hobby. They are nothing but trolls. You don’t need to prove anything to anyone. Keep up the good work and never allow these idiots to take your smile away. Also drives me insane. How the heck do you hit a ball with your ponytail hanging like that it would drive me nuts. One last thing when considering schools keep Oregon in mind. You will love it there.
I think you found something awesome with this guy. Also for me to learn. But to play a few holes after was a touch to your videos I think if you do this more will see another big jump in views. This is the new video standard for audience
It’s so cool that a beautiful young lady is so enthusiastic about golf!
Nice this is local at Westlake
👊
Need a tracer to track all those shots he said you smashed! Great video.
That was fun G.G.G.😊
I always thought George was arrogant boy was I wrong what a good guy and very humble very good to see I am a fan now and was dead wrong about George.
He’s the nicest guy. And super humble
@@gabbygolfgirl I hope he is Catholic.
Excellent…just saved me a couple hundred dollars!:)
Legend teaching future legend
🙏🙏🙏
Concentrate on your putting. As the guy says , there aint anything wrong with your swing.
👍
Gabby, the way you play, they should take lessons from YOU. 🙂
Love that shirt Gabby !!!! You ever been to Hawaii ??? Keep going . You are a great influencer for many young female golfers here in Hawaii !!!
@UCaG_orPvjVZC5j19ZteO_vA you sure can . Don’t mind me if I don’t respond quick. I have 2 jobs, lol
Awesome video it’s way cooooool
Good lesson 👏
You rock Gabby!
@official_gabbygolfgirl
I’m so impressed with your high energy, positive attitude and dynamic personality and skill that’s so impressive, what I loved about the lesson with Coach G was your willingness to learn and put in to practice and watch the results.
You keep at it Gabby, you are a shining light!
Hi Gabby,
You chased distance for learn,
not to worry the money comes back to you.
Great Lesson,
if you have more lesson with Gankas, please upload.
With driver,
why your left foot misplaced upon impact/finish.
Can’t wait for the day you turn pro Gabby!
🙏
Nice shirt,watching from Hawaii 🤙🏾
