  • I've recently released the second Paddy’s Golf Tips video in the series on helping every golfer achieve a single-figure handicap. After the first tip on movement and rhythm in the swing, the next step is to find the ground with the club. I discuss a basic drill to achieve this and the ideal ball position while using different clubs! Stay tuned for more lessons!

    Paddy’s golf tips - it’s the best !! I’ve stopped watching all other golf instruction on UA-cam as it confuses me. Gripping the club in the fingers, swinging the club back and thru swish has made such a difference that I recently shot 2 under 70.. that’s all I did. Can’t thank Paddy enough. Cheers from New Delhi, India 🥂

    That tip of keeping head down to see the divot is golden. I have a habit of looking for the ball in the air before ive hit it and dumping my arms trying to hit it blind. Had one round recently where i piped everything (except for holing puts) and shot 87. When i look back, its because i focused on staying in the shot longer and focused on where my low point was. Since then, the best ive shot is 95 😭 because ive gone back to my habits of looking for the ball too early! Ball striking is pretty good so remembering this tip, if i could stop with the putting yips, i should be low 80's. Paddy has got me from 28 to 17.3 in the past year 🙌🙌

    patty, I sent one of your videos to my brother who was at the range , he texted me before, holyshit I found my swing watching that video, haha , and hes a scratch golfer, looking for more power, a , very consistent good ball striker, but not much distance, he said he did a few warm up swings like you do , when you swing away, before addressing the ball.Outstanding baseball player his whole life, he brought that swing down on some tilts and turns and there you have it, he was so F,,, happy. Thanks, Patty , helping guys in New York . You're the man. 🫵🐐

    13 handicapper here. Recently went away on a golf trip after not playing much over the last several months and shot 110 both days! I’m a decent athlete that takes to most sports, except golf, so I’m looking to “simplify” my game. This series looks ideal! Can’t wait to watch the rest of Paddy’s tips 👌🏻

  • @Costigs01

    Update from my previous comment, been to the range today and absolute flushed my 4 and 5 iron which is almost unheard of for me. Just goes to show how much we forget the basics on our UA-cam quest for answers. Focusing on low point control fixed my vicious hook in three swings. I'm now convinced that ensuring the basics are dialled in is far better than working on getting one extra degree of supination in the little toe on your right foot during the first 2 inches of the downswing whilst holding the lag in my third belt buckle!

      Teach them that secret to golf is the club is not designed to hit a ball like in baseball or tennis.
      It is designed to brush or cut the grass.
      If they can brush the grass nicely where the ball is, they can play golf.
