    Your videos lessons are some of the best I’ve ever seen. I especially like your way of visualizing the course and making your shots super simple. I’m about a 15 handicap so a lot of what you’re showing I can totally relate to and it makes sense. Thank you.

    I came across your channel on UA-cam a couple weeks ago, and you have quickly become my favorite golf instructional channel on the Internet. You have a way of really simplifying the golf swing, and in a short amount of time you have helped me get my swing back on track closer to where it used to be. I’m 59 years old and I used to be an 8.4 handicap, but then due to a job change which didn’t allow me to play and practice as much as before, and reverting back to some old muscle memory where I started over swinging and getting my arms disconnected from my body again, my handicap has ballooned back up to about a 15. However, I recently retired and have more time to play and practice, and after discovering your channel and implementing the things you teach, I feel like I’m well on my way to getting back to a single digit handicap because of your videos and your simple but effective teaching method. Thank you so much for your videos!

    Had a lil practice round today for my Wednesday competitive round coning up. Been struggling a bit lately compressing the ball. Wanted to let you know last few holes, I remembered w
    Hiw you spoke about trying to pound the ball into the ground. Out of frustration maybe, I really was just trying to BURY that ball into the ground. That was what I was missing. 147 yds for a 9 iron is pretty long for me and I was even longer than that. My friend was 110 yds out, dropped a ball for fun, used my 54°, sounded the ball into the ground, and boom, landed near the flag.
    I hope you don't get tired of all the thanks and praises, but THANK YOU!!
    I'll let you know how we'd goes. Pretty pumped

    I don’t know what do now Mr. Jimmy! Yesterday I was happy hitting my 9 iron 125, 8 iron 135, 7 iron 145 etc. Just got back from the driving range and picked up a solid 15-20 yards on every club - this compression stuff really works! I guess I’ll say “thank you” but don’t know if can handle hitting real golf shots- This is uncharted territory!

    Hey Jimmy. i played today and followed your advice on chicken winging it. Kept my trail elbow tucked tight and pointed down at top of swing. Didn’t work on every swing, but damn! Basically shot bogie golf on back 9. Shot a 96 my dude! Thank you for giving advice and making this difficult game a little easier. I started playing October 2023 and have goals of shooting bogie golf or better by October 2024.

    Great video Jimmy, can you do a video of the importance of keeping the wave to the camera angle at impact. I fell into a very short period a few weeks ago where I was losing this angle and the difference with it and without it is astonishing. Sure others would like to see it thanks Paul .

    Does it affect your play?

      We have to irrigate courses here friend. I we got more rain, not so much. I live in South Texas in the almost desert like lands of Texas. Super dry. Water on the closest course to me is mostly reserved for tees and greens. By August, generally our hottest month, every day over 100, the course is brown. My golf season is October to May, June.

    "If you're a 12 to 24 handicap, putting your par is your best friend." How about us 33 handicappers lol? Putting for par feels like the holy grail for me, right now. My scores are slowly coming down though. I'm getting closing to being under 120 every round. Played a couple in Myrtle Beach last week for a bachelors party. Went 126 (putting was awful, couldn't get the ball into the hot tub. 3 putted most the holes). Then went 120 (putting was still awful. Still no hot tub action). But I am happy with those scores considering the amount of hot dogs and Coor's Lights I had during each of those rounds. Going out this weekend. Hoping to be able to report back a sub 110. Last time I was at this course I had a 48 on the front 9 so fingers crossed for that again.
