The only way I’m hitting 350 is a perfectly flush straight ball, otherwise that amount of effort is going 250 + 100 yards of hook or slice. It’s a low % try for me.
@@aluminumfalcon552lol I’m right there with ya. I can hit maybe 1/100 330-350 but the other 99 are gonna end up a zip code to either side. I’m consistently inconsistent with my driver 😂
Playa InChief, I shot my first 88 last week. And I have been playing for over 50 years. Mr. Boomboom, this stuff you peddle WORKS. I am too old to improve greatly, but improve I am. The most important thing you taught me is also the most amazing. You taught me to truly enjoy each and every round of golf. I laugh at my bad shots. They happen. Alot. People like to play golf with me. They enjoy their game more as well. They puzzle at my stragagies. They are impressed with my putting. I effortlessly beat people I could never beat before. I play better as they play worse. They cannot believe my club choices. "What a wonderful life" I tell them. I always tell them about you IF they ask how I do it. YOU are the most important mentor I have found on UA-cam Matt. Thank you Sir. Your videos are delightful.
@@GolfSidekickMatty, You are my style consultant. I rock my Waddaplayer gear improving stuffy courses. My bucket hat identifies me to knowing golfers as a Playa Extro-ordinary. You are changing the game out there worldwide. You have taken golf AND fashion to the next level, beyond Willem Murray, miles beyond Daly. A pox on the dim suburbanites who cannot follow- or play. Black Knee socks, neon sunscreens, festooned in golf towels, bucket hats shading mirror sunglasses. You can't putt like us?
You're the best. You raise my confidentiality every time I watch one of your videos. My score is dropping and my enjoyment for golf is growing, again. Thank you.
At the BMW Ladies Championship last week the announcers said Lydia Ko has a wedge swing for every 2 yards. Another reason to stop comparing ourselves to the pros. We don't have that kind of finesse and club control. I like your idea of 2 swings for each wedge, nice and simple.
Pro ladies are so out of our universe it's crazy. People think that they can relate to their distances. But that's where the similarity stops. Because when they want to hit 145, they hit 145 When they want to hit 145, there is no 10% (14.5 yard) dispersion. It's 4-5% They are CRAZY good with dropping the ego and hitting the shot needed at the time, and their precision is just silly.
I used the way of the playa recently - went from 24.8 handicap to 17.4 from March to October this year and scored an 81 just the other day with a 2iron bunt off each tee. This stuff truly works
I have embraced the way of the playa and have had my most enjoyable and most successful year. Handicap has dropped 7 strokes, i had my best round ever (+9) and even got a hole in 1 using strategies from your channel to build maximum confidentiality 🍻
Excellently said playa All playas need CONTEXT that's why the easiest area to hit into off the tee depends on skill. we are not pros, so WHEN IN DOUBT, SEND IT is possibly the dumbest thing i have ever heard for handicap golfers. approach, we widen and tighten our field goals depending on our skill level. we aim for our shot shape, wider or narrower depending on skill level. chipping, we use OUR go to technique. Easy life Avoid the nauseating distances inside 80 yards too!
Had my first game of golf today against my dad, who's been playing for 12+ years. I had an extra shot on each hole and it was match play. I played ok and managed the win! But it was all down to your course management videos. I felt like my theory was spot on today and that's what got me the win. Thanks Sidekick, much appreciated! We're going back on Friday but he's not giving me any extra shots anymore though hahaha
I’ve become the Old Man Playa in my golf club thanks to you, Matty Boom Boom. I’m driving them crazy with my 210 yd shots and better consistency. I wish to share your prophecies with the world, but cannot risk my mates finding the truth.
Been watching you for years. Last week… finally, finally listened to your advice off the tee. Didn’t pull a club I couldn’t completely commit to off the tee. Even if I had to go down to six iron I did. I really just recognize that six iron, eight iron gets me out to 375 yds… I don’t need to pull drivers. also, when I was at a position, just focused on having a putt for par. Anyway, I didn’t hit the ball great but went out and shot a 77. (Three putt bogeyed eighteen after sending buddy a pick saying, “two putt from 30 feet for a 76.” Rookie mistake. Anyway, that was still seven strokes better than I’ve shot in recent memory. Two birdies and 7 bogies. The big difference, no double or triple bogies. Typically have a few each round.
Taught myself playing late solo rounds, didnt know people had problems with 60deg till I learned to use it everywhere. Full swing 85yrds, 1oclock 70 yards, 2 oclock 60 yard down to a 5oclock 20 yard chip. love 40-80 yardles. Best part of my game. Made eagle from 72yrds the other day. Landed it 1 hop short of green 4ft left of pin and let slope take it to the right and into hole, was beautiful, I think I peed a bit.
Love your videos and advice. Most of the time, I agree with your advice to hit past a front pin. Here in NJ, I play several courses where the front pins are so down hill and so fast that it either goes in or goes 10-15 feet past off the green. And it's not just because I suck at putting, everyone I play with has the same issues. And to make it even more fun, sometimes the uphill putts that don't go in roll back to your feet. So we pick up after three tries and move on. Does anyone else play on greens where this happens?
Hi mister Baus man !! All the from South Africa. Your videos have helped so so much with my golf game , it's coming down fantastically and that's all thanks to you ! I have one question , have you ever considered making a video playing with a Hickory golf set ? Keep up the great work , Love you champion Jy is n legend !!!
Okay, it's from a Sidekick video I watched three videos ago but "Charlie Chaplin Chipping" is an absolute cure-all. Takeaway, tempo, contact, you name it, get on it!
Today I had 4 putts for birdie, around 7ft on average, a couple 8's and a 5. All missed by about 1/4 of an inch. I took it in stride, and just shrugged, but though about why I missed. Slightly under hit, slightly right, etc.. File it away in the computer mind for later reference. Good help in putting from GSK, in that if it does not work no worries just figure out why. At least that is what I am trying to emulate.
Thanks to your advice, I went from consistently playing 110 shot rounds to consistently playing in the low 90s and I am enjoying golf more. I do have a problem with your use of "confidential", which in English implies secrecy, as opposed to confidence which means "faith or belief that one will act in a right, proper, or effective way".
300K subscribers. Well done Bro. Well deserved for all the hard work you have put in. I'm playing Loch Palm in Phuket on the 17th of November. I've booked the best caddy, if you come down she is yours for the round.
New viewer here... thoroughly confused 😂 at first i thought it was satire. But the advice is pretty good. I'm going to rock back and forward in a corner now
@GolfSidekick for tracing yes. But for measuring the distances? Lay-out of the hole and deciding where you have enough width? The pointer with the arc on the map. Tnx
Playa, are you going to try to play in a professional tournament? I'd love to see you make it. Also thanks for all the videos on strategy/course management, I'm reading Raymond Floyd's book about scoring as well. It really comes down to avoiding trouble and picking safe spots to land the ball. I think I've been too aggressive going after flags.
What app are you using for your shot planning? I would like to plan out a round from the red tees and the white tees at my local course using this strategy, but this seems like a lot of work in google maps...anyone have a suggestion? Thanks, as always, Matt. Truly a unique and refreshing approach to the game.
À good tactic when pin are short or long and you are in doubt remember that sentence: short pin long club, long pin short club, then if you dont hit perfection you Will still be on the right side of the pin and so on the greensky
What app is that where is shows the shot dispersion width? Seems really handy, would love to try it. Currently on the cusp of breaking 80 but can't get over the hump.
Missing on the high side may mean than you have a shorter second putt but a) you are not giving yourself a chance to sink the first putt and b) your second putt will be downhill
Anybody know what app he uses that shows the width of the landing area? I love his videos and try to visual the goal posts as he mentioned and feel the app could really help me improve that portion
