Just shot a 101 and this is my second year golfing ever. I'm understanding the mechanics of this game more so than most. Number one problem I'm working on now is I have a tendency to hit the ground before the ball with my irons because I'm leaning back in my back swing for some reason im having trouble keeping straight and leaning forward in my follow through.
Long time fan of your channel. My brother (age 35) has been taking golf seriously for the last year now. He has always been a naturally good golfer but has improved significantly just from playing regularly. However he is really struggling to break 80. He's had a few occasions where he needed to birdie the 18th hole, only to par it. Long shot but do you guys still do lessons in person or is it all through your online programme? Im sure he'd be willing to drive up to you guys.
Controlling emotions is huge for me! Not only do I play better when I’m in control of my emotions but I enjoy being on the golf course more. Thanks guys!
Same- I get overly offset when there's a slow group in front of me, or a group behind me hitting into me when I'm waiting for a group in front of me- end up whiffing my 3 wood :D
this is great information guys!!! I have an example of not letting my emotions ruin my round. After a good front nine 39, I was excited about the prospect of breaking 80, my tee shot on 10 was pulled into a hazard. One the way to the ball, I started to have that feeling of "here we go.. starting to self destruct.". But, I quickly said to my self: That shot is in the past, this is a par 5, see if you can still squeak out a par. Lo and behold, I hit a sensible iron over the water to about 160. Then on the approach, to about 15 feet behind the stick. Focused hard, and sunk it! Totally accredited to the positive frame of mind and having the sense to quell the negative thoughts!
100% agree with this. A few of my friends are just starting to get into golf and this is something I've tried to explain to them, no good following a bad shot with another because you've lost your head, it's not always easy but it's key if your going to have a decent round.
Hey guys! I played a brand new course and broke 90 today using several of the tips I’ve spent countless hours watching. Definitely a huge accomplishment! I managed to do it using only irons, literally zero woods or hybrids. Piers and Andy are the best thing to ever happen to my golf game 🤙💯
Thanks for this... I broke 80 for the first time March 4, 2018 with a 78 at The Crossings in Glen Allen, VA. 34 putts, 14 fairways, and 11 GIRs. You guys are very helpful!
Your videos are extremely helpful! Your chipping video around the green brought my score down from the low 90's to the mid 80's. Lowest score to date is an 84. Need some help to get down to 79. I'll keep watching your videos, as they are a great teaching tool as long as a person is willing to put aside their pride and admit they need help.
Got an 88 yesterday and it was my 9th time ever golfing. Hit my first birdie and I got two in a row. The toe vs heel strike video fixed my gnarly slice and took a good 10 strokes off my game. Thanks for all the help with my new hobby
I managed to shoot a 73 a few weeks ago. I'm a subscriber to your channel and you guys are so knowledgeable on the swing and the mechanics and components of the golf swing. You have definitely helped me with the video tutorials and instructions you post on your channels. You guys are awesome. Keep up the great work and thank you! :)
I’m 15. I shoot low to mid 80s very consistently, I have been trying to fix all 5 of these tips before I even saw the video without realizing it. My biggest problem is that I loose focus between the 13 and 16 ish holes. It’s not that their any harder I just loose focus and don’t think about each shot enough. I’m going to start trying to think about every shot being the most important and in turn hopefully being able to stay focused the whole round.
If your are getting a little tired towards the end of your round, you should work on your overall condition. Only if you are fit through all 18 holes you can keep your focus at a high level. All the pros work at their fitness and their strength for that reason.
Frank Schumacher - thank you for your advice. I very much agree with you because my parents just bought me a golf cart in June and since then I have became lazy and haven’t walked enough. I am addicted to golf and play every minute I can so from like 3:30 ( after school and during high school golf ) until about 6 or when it’s dark I am out playing. And on the weekends I’m at the course for at least 8 hours a day. ( Lol I’m at the course right now even ) anyway I would say I play about 15 rounds a week on average and I only walk during practice ( because we have too ) but when I prepare for a tournament I make sure to walk 18 holes daily. Also to any parents out there who are thinking about getting their kid a cart I would strongly recommend as soon as possible if you have the financial opening for that investment. Me and my best friend each have carts now and we have dropped our scores from mid 90s to high 70s because we got to get so much time on the course. It’s really amazing how much of a difference that practicing on the course gives us then in the range. Anyway thanks again and to any kids who want a golf cart show this to your parents they might change their minds lol. But honestly tho if I didn’t have my cart I wouldn’t be able to golf as much and I wouldn’t be as good.
finally breaking 90 consistently. Onto 80 baby! Thanks for the tips as always been watching since i started taking golf more serious 2 years ago. Used to just slam beers and have a good time but now its actually amazing to see the progress week to week. Best channel on youtube by far thanks again guys!
I think tip 1 got me to 80.....now I need to break 80 more often. I hover between 80-85.....Think I took this tip too early lol. Changed my game immensely. Your scores really get lower when you can simply advance and stay out of the woods and water. Tip 2....I have to work on. Great video.....makes you realize what you actually have to work on.
I commented on the last video on how to lower your scores about being a 3.7 HC who doesn't always take my time on every shot. After watching your video, I went out yesterday actively doing everything in the video and shot a 74. Definitely staying tuned to the rest of the series.
Congrats on the sponsorships. School starts tomorrow and I have football so I'm worried about loosing everything I gained this summer. My goal when I started golfing this summer was to hit 40 on 9. Today was my first time hitting 40.
Thanks for the video guys. We weekend golfers are not that consistent enough so having a game plan depending on the course will definitely give us an edge. I have been planning my rounds for the longest time and doing this, I have dropped my handicap lower even if I play usually once a week.
Hey guys just wanted to say thank you for the videos. The dead aim technic and simplicity of the shot improved my game tremendously. I was having issues with accuracy and shot consistency. But the dead aim and simplicity of the shot (focusing on the flag stick instead of just the green) helped me achieve my first 4 under. I was normally any where from 85-93. Thank you for the tips. Keep up the hard work guys.
Johnny Miller was once asked the difference between shooting 72 and 66. His answer, "Six putts that miss by less than a 1/2 inch." He actually held up his fingers to show the distance.
Nicely done. When I am struggling, I try to 1: Not lose a ball (penalty) 2: No miss hits (duffs, shanks), 3: No 3 putts. That can usually save a few strokes with just a little focus, defensive golf and course management.
Thanks guys! All of these have been very useful and I am consistently scoring 80-84...sometimes under 80😀btw just bringing it out...from where I watch the video the audio and the video are unmatched. I wonder if everyone has this issue or its just me🤣
I started golfing last year shooting around 130, I set my goal to break 100 this year. I finished this season shooting between 95 -100. It's been fairly consistent. Best score being a 92. Winter season sucks! I need to break 90 before the snow falls! Thanks dudes!
Love these videos guys. I watched tour video on how to break 100. I had never broke 90 before and after watching that video I shot a 77 on a pretty tough course. Thanks guys. I'm hoping this video will help me stay consistently under 90.
Hey guys, thanks so much for all your tips. It’s really helping my game and I’m looking forward to taking these keys out with me this week and Breaking 80 👍🏼
Love these videos. Always worth a watch. I'm definitely fitting the demographic now - bought the M1 Driver and an Audi this year.... Now if I could just break 80 consistently like these guys.
Andrew Levy get a note book, and track stats (driving accuracy, putting, GIR, sand saves and scrambling etc), and figure out where you are consistently losing shots. Work on the weakness that you find. I think if your shooting as low as your saying your probably pretty good at all aspects of the game, but have one small issue in your game
Great work gents. Shot an 89 the other day for the first time in 10 years. I took several years off from golf and these videos have really helped me get back on track quickly!
Keeping the emotions in check is a good one. Normally I shoot low to mid 80s. Had a rough round this past week. The front nine was awful. I don't think I've ever played that terribly in recent memory. I shot a 49. I couldn't hit a decent shot. And I was getting really frustrated and angry. The back 9 didn't start so well either. Started with a 7! So, I had to compose myself. Took a few deep breaths and refocused my thinking. The last 8 holes were infinitely better after refocusing. Which lead to playing better golf. Strung a few pars together and putted for eagle once. Ended up with a birdie. And finished the game with a 91. Which wasn't so bad considering I was sitting at 56 after 10 holes. At any rate, thanks for the tips! Always enjoy the videos.
Yeah, I definitely agree with the pitching tip. A lot of golfers I know who shoot in the 80s are fine off tee, decent with irons, but can't ever get up and down. They pitch/chip the ball waaaaay past the hole or chunk them. Let's say you hit 9/18 GIR. Assume your putting is good and you 2-putt those 9 greens; that's 9 pars. The other 9 holes where you miss the green, if you can just get up and down on 4 of them, that's only 5 holes left that you don't make par on. Keep those to bogeys and you break 80.
Really like your videos, guys. Very practical and your positive attitude is really encouraging. I break 80 pretty regularly but my attitude needs work! I am going to try to make some red circles!
I'm a 12 year old who has broke 80 but only once but I go play nine every time I play nine I shoot like 40 41 on an okay 9 or in the 30's on my good 9 if you want to know how to break 80 work on your mental game last night I went out and played after reading this book golf is not a game of perfect and it helped I only played the par 3 course and I shot 28 playing bad I thought ballstriking wise I play every day for like 6 or so hour depending if it's a weekday or weekend and this has helped more than going to the range and trying to fix the swing have confidence in your swing guys
I think the better we get, the less inclined we are to use driver. In the past, I never would have considered not using driver on a par 5. Last year, I played three consecutive 5 wood shots on a par 5 to land it in the middle of the green, and each shot was different: like a choked down driver off the tee, like a utility hybrid out of the rough, and like a mid-to-long iron from the fairway.
I watched tips to breaking 100 even though I never really needed that but still watched it and watched best tips to break 90 and now this video which is tiles to break 80 and guess what I shot a 75 today!!! 4 birdies, 3 bogeys and 1 Quadruple bogey! That quadruple was bad but is my most difficult hole but I didn’t let my emotions get to me and I did just well!!!! you guys are amazing!!!!
Great video, course strategy is very important. I broke 80 recently and used an iron off alot of the tees to take the risk out of the shot. Better to be shorter and on the fairway then longer and out of bounds.
Thank you Andy and Piers, I put the tips to break 90's its works, I am averaging 85 at the moment! I shall try out tips to break 80's especially the emotionally tips' as my golf buddies swear and discuss bad holes which in turn affects me game, i will try to ignore their comments!
so will wearing the right shoes and playing with the right clubs and the right balls. Don't take my word for it, just ask Titleist, Adams, TaylorMade, any of the top equipment-makers...
What you convey is to apply proper course management and to improve in areas where you may be weak. That is what most golfers who want to improve do in any event. When I played my best golf I was on the driving range every afternoon after work. You have to hit your irons well to go low and you have to play at least once a week over a long period of time. And you have to have a shot shape.
Hi Guys. I have seen allot of videos on Breaking 90, 80 etc. I am shooting in the low 70's but my goal is to play even par or in the 60's. Any tips videos on that? Allot of videos and tips are for the mid to high handicappers, would be great to see some tips for the lower/scratch handicappers. Any thoughts?
I'm 72, started playing golf when I was 50, I weigh 50Kg (110lbs), 1m65 (5'6). I hit a 5 wood 225 yards off the tee and hit 78 last week. It is all about timing, not size, strength, etc.
You guys should go a video about tracking stats. Like a scorecard video where you break down how to keep track of distances of each club, your missed greens, putts, etc. And then how to process those stats into practice time
Thanks Andy and Piers, i love these videos. I'm only 15 years old and broke 75 today, because of your videos. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Please make more like this :)
fantastic video as always. As a guy who took himself from 20 handicap to 8, some of my experiences. Pitching is HUGE for your score, and, very few teachers can teach it!!! it took me 5 instructors before i learned to pitch. But once i got it, wow, the scores dropped! also course management is big. Teeing off with long iron or hybrid when there is trouble.
Thanks gents.. 79 is right around the corner for me .. I'm thinking once I get 8th the 70s. (79) it'll become much easier to always have that confidence and that 72 will be my next challenge. .. I'm gonna do it... thanks for your advice. .
Great stuff. The dead hand wedge is impossible for me though. Requires the body and legs to be synced perfectly because the hands can't react to recover from a poor tempo or position.
I break 90 on a regular basis. Breaking 80....very hard. I've come close a few times but from what I see, putting and getting up and down is the key. When I shoot low 80's, my putter and wedges are doing well for me. Having a fairway finder driver shot off the tee is vital as well.
Shot my lowest 74 today on a par 72. It's no thanks to these guys, just playing a lot, club down and swinging 85%, worked on chipping which has been lights out, and good putting. Just wanted to share and this was the video that opened when I opened the app. Also definitely not getting that new $600 driver I've been keeping an eye on.
I should say also from reading the comments I've consciously worked on staying positive for the last 2 years of playing, started playing 5 years ago, and it's amazing how much you notice people setting themselves up for failure before even taking a shot. i.e. "knowing my slice I don't think I could ever get it into play here!" "Over water?! Let me grab my shitty top flite" "What a game! I knew I would shank this one!" Game is all confidence and mindset, why put yourself into loser mode before you even strike?
The key to getting below a 10 handi is getting it up and down at least 50% of the time. Sure, make some putts. But if you can still make par (or bogey) on half of the 10 greens you miss in reg, you can shoot sub 80 a lot.
the app 18birdies replaces all your course planners and tells you your distances with gps. I've been using it the last 2 rounds and it's helped keeping track of my distances and chosing the right club
Hey guys great video but at number 1 At my local course i dont have a driveable par 4 (only driving about 240 yards) so what should i do ignore the 1st point/step or wat?
I like the course planner thing, I’ve actually tried it. Problem was I’m not good enough to execute the strategy 😂 “Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face” - Mike Tyson I tee off with an iron when I know I can’t drive the green with a driver and it’s a narrow fairway. Then I put the iron into the Woods. I think, “shoot, I coulda done that with the driver but been up 80 yards and pitching out up there instead “😂

Meandmygolf What if you’ll go too short to driver but the whole requires for safety something else
Just shot a 101 and this is my second year golfing ever. I'm understanding the mechanics of this game more so than most. Number one problem I'm working on now is I have a tendency to hit the ground before the ball with my irons because I'm leaning back in my back swing for some reason im having trouble keeping straight and leaning forward in my follow through.
Long time fan of your channel. My brother (age 35) has been taking golf seriously for the last year now.

broke 80 for the first time today! 77, thanks for the help🏌🏼♂️ now, to break 75!
Update?
Controlling emotions is huge for me! Not only do I play better when I’m in control of my emotions but I enjoy being on the golf course more. Thanks guys!

100% agree with this.

Breaking 80 is ALL about the Short Game!
Marshall Jameson yep. Need to get it up and down more often than not
to me its about not bombing any drives into the out. shortgame is already strong enough :/
Thanks for this... I broke 80 for the first time March 4, 2018 with a 78 at The Crossings in Glen Allen, VA. 34 putts, 14 fairways, and 11 GIRs. You guys are very helpful!
Your videos are extremely helpful! Your chipping video around the green brought my score down from the low 90's to the mid 80's. Lowest score to date is an 84. Need some help to get down to 79. I'll keep watching your videos, as they are a great teaching tool as long as a person is willing to put aside their pride and admit they need help.
1. Make putts
I’m not capable of that sir
Polirsh that’s too true.
Watched this clip last night, as a 10 handicapper I just shot 75 off the stick. This lesson helped heaps!
I almost broke 80 for the first time today, been golfing for 3 months. Decided to get an 8 on the final hole
sounds like you cheat lol
Got an 88 yesterday and it was my 9th time ever golfing. Hit my first birdie and I got two in a row. The toe vs heel strike video fixed my gnarly slice and took a good 10 strokes off my game. Thanks for all the help with my new hobby
#6. Be sure to be on a course without sh*t greens.
Jacob Munsell bad language, good point
I managed to shoot a 73 a few weeks ago. I'm a subscriber to your channel and you guys are so knowledgeable on the swing and the mechanics and components of the golf swing.

Lavar Ball you’re a badass
Oliver Jones - I know you are but what am I 😘
If your are getting a little tired towards the end of your round, you should work on your overall condition. Only if you are fit through all 18 holes you can keep your focus at a high level. All the pros work at their fitness and their strength for that reason.
Frank Schumacher - thank you for your advice. I very much agree with you because my parents just bought me a golf cart in June and since then I have became lazy and haven’t walked enough. I am addicted to golf and play every minute I can so from like 3:30 ( after school and during high school golf ) until about 6 or when it’s dark I am out playing. And on the weekends I’m at the course for at least 8 hours a day. ( Lol I’m at the course right now even ) anyway I would say I play about 15 rounds a week on average and I only walk during practice ( because we have too ) but when I prepare for a tournament I make sure to walk 18 holes daily. Also to any parents out there who are thinking about getting their kid a cart I would strongly recommend as soon as possible if you have the financial opening for that investment. Me and my best friend each have carts now and we have dropped our scores from mid 90s to high 70s because we got to get so much time on the course. It’s really amazing how much of a difference that practicing on the course gives us then in the range. Anyway thanks again and to any kids who want a golf cart show this to your parents they might change their minds lol. But honestly tho if I didn’t have my cart I wouldn’t be able to golf as much and I wouldn’t be as good.
finally breaking 90 consistently. Onto 80 baby! Thanks for the tips as always been watching since i started taking golf more serious 2 years ago. Used to just slam beers and have a good time but now its actually amazing to see the progress week to week. Best channel on youtube by far thanks again guys!
I think tip 1 got me to 80.....now I need to break 80 more often. I hover between 80-85.....Think I took this tip too early lol. Changed my game immensely. Your scores really get lower when you can simply advance and stay out of the woods and water. Tip 2....I have to work on. Great video.....makes you realize what you actually have to work on.
I commented on the last video on how to lower your scores about being a 3.7 HC who doesn't always take my time on every shot.
After watching your video, I went out yesterday actively doing everything in the video and shot a 74. Definitely staying tuned to the rest of the series.
Great work, well done.
Shot 79 on Saturday! First time under 80 and it feels great! Keep up the great tips!
Thanks for watching Kevin that's great to hear!
Congrats on the sponsorships. School starts tomorrow and I have football so I'm worried about loosing everything I gained this summer. My goal when I started golfing this summer was to hit 40 on 9. Today was my first time hitting 40.
Thanks for the video guys. We weekend golfers are not that consistent enough so having a game plan depending on the course will definitely give us an edge. I have been planning my rounds for the longest time and doing this, I have dropped my handicap lower even if I play usually once a week.

Shot a 40 on 9 holes today, really need to buy a pitching wedge though, my sand wedge is not cutting my entry shots...

greens in regulation and putts. HUGE.
Best putting tip I ever received. Hit your pitching wedge and sand wedge closer to the hole and you'll become a better putter!
What helped me break 90 was consistent chipping and having a mental game. I stopped caring about prior and future shots
Love these videos guys. I watched tour video on how to break 100. I had never broke 90 before and after watching that video I shot a 77 on a pretty tough course. Thanks guys. I'm hoping this video will help me stay consistently under 90.
Hey guys, thanks so much for all your tips. It’s really helping my game and I’m looking forward to taking these keys out with me this week and Breaking 80 👍🏼
Love these videos. Always worth a watch. I'm definitely fitting the demographic now - bought the M1 Driver and an Audi this year.... Now if I could just break 80 consistently like these guys.
Thanks for this series a videos guys, truly is very helpful. Used your tips to shoot my best round of 80 last weekend. Keep up the great work!
That's great Blake well done!
I shot 10 under par yesterday. thanks for the tips. hope to break 60 soon. just need to get more eagles.
How do you go from 75-80 to 72 71 70 etc? Great video. I'm excited to try it out.
Andrew Levy get a note book, and track stats (driving accuracy, putting, GIR, sand saves and scrambling etc), and figure out where you are consistently losing shots. Work on the weakness that you find. I think if your shooting as low as your saying your probably pretty good at all aspects of the game, but have one small issue in your game
Great work gents. Shot an 89 the other day for the first time in 10 years. I took several years off from golf and these videos have really helped me get back on track quickly!
Shot an 85 not to long ago, only been playing for 8months. Thanks for the tips! It really helped my game out!
Thanks for this Andy and Piers! Please do a workout/fitness series!
why?
why not?
We have one coming very soon John.
Meandmygolf Great! Looking forward to it!
Perfect tips. Gonna use them at my next round tomorrow!!! Thanks a lot. Great page
Hope they help.
My "Go TO SHOT" is Jack Daniels. :-)
Keeping the emotions in check is a good one. Normally I shoot low to mid 80s. Had a rough round this past week. The front nine was awful.

The other 9 holes where you miss the green, if you can just get up and down on 4 of them, that's only 5 holes left that you don't make par on. Keep those to bogeys and you break 80.
Tried your hints today and played my best golf ever! Thank you very much!
I hope someday I will break 80 great lesson yet again 😀⛳️👌
Really like your videos, guys. Very practical and your positive attitude is really encouraging. I break 80 pretty regularly but my attitude needs work! I am going to try to make some red circles!
Hello gents! I'm really going to try to use your pitch principles on my second shot. Thanks!
You guys didn't just gain a sub, you earned one. Great video seriously.
I'm a 12 year old who has broke 80 but only once but I go play nine every time I play nine I shoot like 40 41 on an okay 9 or in the 30's on my good 9 if you want to know how to break 80 work on your mental game last night I went out and played after reading this book golf is not a game of perfect and it helped I only played the par 3 course and I shot 28 playing bad I thought ballstriking wise I play every day for like 6 or so hour depending if it's a weekday or weekend and this has helped more than going to the range and trying to fix the swing have confidence in your swing guys

Last year, I played three consecutive 5 wood shots on a par 5 to land it in the middle of the green, and each shot was different: like a choked down driver off the tee, like a utility hybrid out of the rough, and like a mid-to-long iron from the fairway.
I watched tips to breaking 100 even though I never really needed that but still watched it and watched best tips to break 90 and now this video which is tiles to break 80 and guess what I shot a 75 today!!! 4 birdies, 3 bogeys and 1 Quadruple bogey! That quadruple was bad but is my most difficult hole but I didn’t let my emotions get to me and I did just well!!!! you guys are amazing!!!!
Had so much truth in thus video.Especially loved the emotion factor!
Great video, course strategy is very important. I broke 80 recently and used an iron off alot of the tees to take the risk out of the shot. Better to be shorter and on the fairway then longer and out of bounds.
Thank you Andy and Piers, I put the tips to break 90's its works, I am averaging 85 at the moment! I shall try out tips to break 80's especially the emotionally tips' as my golf buddies swear and discuss bad holes which in turn affects me game, i will try to ignore their comments!
Great. Glad they helped. yes don't get involved!
I'm still waiting on the simple tips on how to break 60
Any putts closer than 20 feet is a give me.
Indeed
Rule #1: any length putt is good if you've already putted it once haha
Play 9 holes...simple 😉
tom young I’d make sure that’s a pencil with an eraser lol
AP and Audi pick the right channel to put their logos .... Again... nice tips that both of you shared with us.. Greeting from Indonesia
Playing from the right tee box will help you break 80.
so will wearing the right shoes and playing with the right clubs and the right balls.
Don't take my word for it, just ask Titleist, Adams, TaylorMade, any of the top equipment-makers...
well I broke 90 for the first time this year and have hit around 6 rounds in mid to low 80's now so thx for the help on how to break 80
What you convey is to apply proper course management and to improve in areas where you may be weak. That is what most golfers who want to improve do in any event. When I played my best golf I was on the driving range every afternoon after work. You have to hit your irons well to go low and you have to play at least once a week over a long period of time. And you have to have a shot shape.
Hi Guys. I have seen allot of videos on Breaking 90, 80 etc. I am shooting in the low 70's but my goal is to play even par or in the 60's. Any tips videos on that? Allot of videos and tips are for the mid to high handicappers, would be great to see some tips for the lower/scratch handicappers. Any thoughts?
The last thing I broke on the golf course was my 5 iron. I guess tip 4 is aimed at people like me
I'm 72, started playing golf when I was 50, I weigh 50Kg (110lbs), 1m65 (5'6). I hit a 5 wood 225 yards off the tee and hit 78 last week. It is all about timing, not size, strength, etc.
Where you line up either left or right in the tee box can eliminate trouble areas or what your preferred ball flight usually is.
Thanks for all these awesome videos they have helped my game so much. I just shot 1 over par on 9 holes and it was awesome!!
aerial shots of the whole was a neat touch. good job
Thanks, yeh they are cool.
You guys should go a video about tracking stats. Like a scorecard video where you break down how to keep track of distances of each club, your missed greens, putts, etc. And then how to process those stats into practice time
Thanks Andy and Piers, i love these videos. I'm only 15 years old and broke 75 today, because of your videos. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Please make more like this :)
fantastic video as always. As a guy who took himself from 20 handicap to 8, some of my experiences. Pitching is HUGE for your score, and, very few teachers can teach it!!! it took me 5 instructors before i learned to pitch. But once i got it, wow, the scores dropped! also course management is big. Teeing off with long iron or hybrid when there is trouble.
Thanks gents.. 79 is right around the corner for me ..
I'm thinking once I get 8th the 70s. (79) it'll become much easier to always have that confidence and that 72 will be my next challenge. .. I'm gonna do it... thanks for your advice. .
Great stuff. The dead hand wedge is impossible for me though. Requires the body and legs to be synced perfectly because the hands can't react to recover from a poor tempo or position.
I break 90 on a regular basis. Breaking 80....very hard. I've come close a few times but from what I see, putting and getting up and down is the key. When I shoot low 80's, my putter and wedges are doing well for me. Having a fairway finder driver shot off the tee is vital as well.
Shot my lowest 74 today on a par 72. It's no thanks to these guys, just playing a lot, club down and swinging 85%, worked on chipping which has been lights out, and good putting. Just wanted to share and this was the video that opened when I opened the app. Also definitely not getting that new $600 driver I've been keeping an eye on.
I should say also from reading the comments I've consciously worked on staying positive for the last 2 years of playing, started playing 5 years ago, and it's amazing how much you notice people setting themselves up for failure before even taking a shot. i.e. "knowing my slice I don't think I could ever get it into play here!" "Over water?! Let me grab my shitty top flite" "What a game! I knew I would shank this one!" Game is all confidence and mindset, why put yourself into loser mode before you even strike?
The key to getting below a 10 handi is getting it up and down at least 50% of the time. Sure, make some putts. But if you can still make par (or bogey) on half of the 10 greens you miss in reg, you can shoot sub 80 a lot.
Wow all such great tips and so well polished. Love your feed. Keep up the good work and look us up when you get to NYC for some metro golf.
Yeah and Steve Stricker was a pupil of Dave Pelz whose book on the short game should be read and understood by anyone who wants to be a good golfer!
I hole more putts in the 6 foot range now using this method! The Tee goal post! :)
Another top video guys thank you very much you have been a huge help to my game
Thanks Julian!
Many thanks as always fellas 👍🏼
the app 18birdies replaces all your course planners and tells you your distances with gps. I've been using it the last 2 rounds and it's helped keeping track of my distances and chosing the right club
Great tips fellas, this made a lot of sense, thank you.
No problem Orlando.
very good guidance thank you.
another great video guys, thanks. where can you buy the alignment stick pro which you show in the 2nd tip?
You’re my favourite instructors and I like that you wear matching outfits, it looks very professional.
It looks goofy
Would love to see you guys add the ball flight graphic to your shots. Big fan of the channel, cheers for all the sound advice. 🍻
Thanks for the suggestion. Will take it on board.
Thanks guys had a 74. 2 over par off a 15 handicap love the videos you guys s should play with rick and Peter again soon
Hi Guys, really enjoying your videos. Just curious as to why Piers had a reverse grip during the putting drill?
5:54 Tip: Make sure you cut your rough before you begin the round
I would love to see videos on spin with pitch and chip shots
I broke 80 last time I played, I have a magic pencil that works great!!!
I play in the 90s-80s and I'm a freshman in HS, I punch the ball with a 7, what club should I use? My short game can be inconsistent, and tips?
Excellent video! keep up the good work fellas
Thanks Patrick
i’m 14, best round is 85 and i really wanna be a scratch golfer, is it possible?
i need a tomtom watch. thats a brilliant piece of equipment.
Like the tips. Thanks guys.
golf is my favorite
Hey guys great video but at number 1
At my local course i dont have a driveable par 4 (only driving about 240 yards) so what should i do ignore the 1st point/step or wat?
Fantastic advise!
Sot 81 yesterday, i wish i had watched this video before as there were a few things i could have done that would have taken 2 or 3 shots off my round.
I'm a 13 handicap and I found this video very helpful
I like the course planner thing, I’ve actually tried it. Problem was I’m not good enough to execute the strategy 😂
“Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face” - Mike Tyson
I tee off with an iron when I know I can’t drive the green with a driver and it’s a narrow fairway. Then I put the iron into the Woods. I think, “shoot, I coulda done that with the driver but been up 80 yards and pitching out up there instead “😂
