      Hi Padraig i was wondering how do you manage fairway bunker under 100 yards

      Putting drills and practice. Your thoughts on lag putting and how far away do you change focus to lag and length rather than making it.

    This man’s ball flight is like an extension of his actual body. Like you can see him just feeling the curve of the ball in his hands. It’s amazing he can even put it into words.

  • @jerryholder6999
    @jerryholder6999 Рік тому +6

    Thanks for not saying "do this, or else" or "get 10 more yards if you just..." Love the notion of feel, the tips that validate my own homegrown solutions such as choking up, your pre-shot swinging to get your body & head tuned into the shot a hand, and the stance width ideas. You make me feel like I can be better at this.

  • @bknoxx

    @jacobr4558 2 роки тому +5

    Thank you so much for explaining these feels! Just the idea of "trying to stop the clubhead" has given me some completely different tools to work with. Such quality information!
    Your lessons open my mind and warm my heart. There is so much misinformation and deception in the "teaching" industry that I was becoming very apathetic and jaded.
    Thank you for reminding me how fantastic this game is and how pure it can be once you block out the egos and the noise.
    You are a breath of fresh air!!!

We are just starting to golf up here in Maine and it usually takes me a month to get back into it, but after watching all your videos I’m already shooting my scores from last year. Not only that, but I feel like I’m playing much worse but completely saved by all your tips. Thank you

    Let me please echo what others have already said...thank you Sir for the time and effort you have taken here and on countless other videos to teach us how to play the hardest game on the planet. Your valuable time and effort is greatly appreciated. You get our most profound respect in doing these super high quality lessons, and I can say without a doubt that your instruction has led to a much greater understanding of the finer points of golf. This video is such an important one, since pitching and chipping can be the deciding factor between a great score and potentially a bogey or worse. Thanks Padraig once again for helping us "break the code." And now, on to the practice sessions...Cheers!

Any other UA-cam golf poster would have taken perhaps up to 10 videos over two or three weeks to cover a third of the information you provided in this one lesson. Thank you sir.

Great to see you giving back to the game in this way at a time when other players' motives are under scrutiny.

    @farhadfallahsafa5736 Рік тому +1

    This was a great video on shots from 50-100. Great tips From a PGA pro like yourself means a lot to us. Many golfers don't practice a lot or thinking that what they practiced on the range is good enough for the game. But as you said its very different in the golf course than on the range. To feel the shot and trying not to swing 100% at each pitch or chip shot is very important. You also mentioned to put the ball forward in your stand and not back so you wouldn't get a large davit. Thank you for sharing with us many years of your experience. This is priceless.

  • @mpreiss7780
    @mpreiss7780 5 днів тому

    I watched you live hitting that 2nd shot on the par 5 in howling wind to win the Open. One of the greatest Sunday rounds ever! Yeah there are many many grips, stances, postures, ect.. to pitch a ball, you cover the basics very well, after that you get into trick shots like Phil M loves to do.. which the average player really doesn't need to learn.

  • @jamesevans5992
    @jamesevans5992 2 роки тому +7

    Wonderful insight Padraig, I especially love your emphasis on understanding ’feel’…all too often on UA-cam its all about drills that can magically sort things out but quite clearly, the real secret is to understand ‘feel’ and what that mean individually for each player.

    Great video, I can’t tell you how freeing it is to know you don’t have to get a ton of shaft lean on your wedges and just let the hands stop at the ball, as that is what comes naturally for me. Now I can just focus on my feel and distance control.

    Great tips for practice. I've tried bringing distance wedge practice to the course several times over the years and usually stick at it for 3 or 4 rounds then revert to pure feel. But I know distance control is important. I reckon the practice techniques here will get me there. I raced out to try them and i especially like the feel of stopping the club at the ball.. thanks for the simple plain language explanations - here and on the other videos

    I’m pleased you clarified the “stopping the club at impact” comment. It’s not really the club face that is stopping, you don’t want the club head actually decelerating at impact, but the hands can decelerate, allowing the head to actually speed up.
    Really enjoying your videos. Thanks!

    paddy your videos are well-received and appreciated by all. thank you. one thing i noticed, you said never bend your knees--BUT, maybe i am not fit correctly, but in order for the entire bottom to sweep the grass and be level, i must bend my knees and lower my hands. for chipping also. so, probably i need to get fitted, but in the mean time, it works.
