    Since your left handed swing looks like a lot of amateur golfers, seems like a great opportunity for you to make a video analyzing your lefty swing to explain what you’re doing wrong on those bad shots!

      It’s the sway off the ball and inside takeaway from trying to turn on your unnatural side whilst holding the club (arms bend), so you get stuck and don’t turn through the ball at impact which causes the push left / little slice

    This is literally the life of a new golfer/high handicapper. Some shots you wonder how the hell you manager to do that (good and bad). Some great shots which are the ones that keep you coming back for more. Probably the most relatable content for the majority of his audience 😂

      He honestly needs to see a sports psychologist. His biggest hurdle to playing good golf is the pressure he puts on himself and the negativity he espouses when he doesn't meet his own expectations. It tanks his rounds continuously.

Honestly I think that is the best mind set to take into golf if you cane. Who hasn't had one of the rounds where you question why do you play golf and basically just want to go home during a round? I swear golf is like bipolar you can be onto of the world than you could just want to go home and climb into bed after a terrible round. Gotta love golf.

    Rick, I've been introduced to the game of golf more than 30 years ago. Been playing it somewhat more seriously for the past 15 years. Being left or right handed makes no difference on how hard it is for most golf players to break 100. Furthermore, hitting a golf ball on anyone's "opposite" hand most definitely is a challenge on its own. Your swing and your score playing left handed definitely shows your athletic skills! Great video and yes, you'll eventually break 100 playing left handed clubs, I don't even doubt it!

    • @sliealwhufc
      @sliealwhufc 6 місяців тому +1

      I’m right hand dominant but, play golf left handed (grew up playing tennis so it’s a right handed backhand essentially) - it really does force you to feel your movement and slows down set up as can easily get narrow / stuck at top of the swing! It helps to pare a strong lead hand grip with a weak trail hand grip also

It'll all be proper form

    Lefty here. Started right handed with hand me downs. Really liked this content, Rick!

    Have you considered trying the reverse grip for chipping like Matt Fitzpatrick?
    You struggle with chipping and seem to feel okay chipping left handed so might be worth trying...

    Fun video- deffo would like to see more of these. I think learning to play ‘the other way around’ would help with tempo and timing when playing as per normal. Short term anyways.

    Talking about being comfortable chipping lefty, my uncle has mentioned having the yips in the past on chipping and switched to lefty just for that for awhile and said it worked.

    Good on you for giving this a good old crack!
    The funny part for us is seeing that your LH score would beat majority of us weekend warriors most days.
    Look forward to more great content.

    Rick, you have no idea how good you're making me feel right now. Yesterday I shot a 102 at my local course. I had 3 Pars, 1 Birdie, 9/13 Fairways, 3/18 GIR, 37 putts, three 9's (due to penalties), an 8 (on a par 3 due to penalties), a 7 on a Par 5, and a bunch of boggys. Golf really is a hard game for sure, but I can't help but to love the game and play at least once or twice a week when weather permits.

    An enormously relatable video 😂 the highs and lows of a round of golf when you just don’t have your game (regular let alone opposite handed!) - you could sense the EMOTIONAL DAMAGE in the middle third of the round 💀

    Video idea: Rick, can you go to the range and film yourself working on your left handed drives? If you slice it, tell us what you observe and think happened, what you'll try to change and adjust; then swing again, etc. There's so much UA-cam content of pros telling students what to do... But I'd love to see the real process and internal monologue of a pro working through their OWN swing. It would be amazing to see in real time how you practice when your (left handed) skill is more in line with an amateur golfer. Essentially, you'd be an amateur (lefty) player but with Pro knowledge. I'd love to see that and then copy your process :)

    Hi Rick, i've been following you for quite some time now, as well as a few other golfers and i always love your content and this one i enjoyed the far most! I want to give you a huge thumbs up for finishing this video and give everyone out there the most honest perspective of what golf can be like.. as a left handed golfer i feel ya 😅i always keep a RH I7 as a resque and i would definitely have forgiven you if you used it as well during your downhill spiral struggle 😅 big thumbs up for the chips though,looking like Big Phil every shot 😉 keep up the great content and greetings from Holland!

    I am a lefty. I grew up long ago playing right-handed. It was downright difficult to get left-handed baseball gloves, golf clubs, etc. I was poor kid. Goodwill and pawn stores were my regular shopping locations. Today, getting lefty equipment is easier. I can hit left-handed. Grew up in a right-hand world. Same for throwing and catching a baseball or batting. Really not very hard. I continue to golf right-handed because equipment is still easier to come by. However, left or right I "am what I am" with golf.
