Ok the take balls home is more of a joke at the end of the video. Not something I typically do. 😂

[@BlackWat3rGTR]

"typically"

[@tomhull612]

I laughed so hard! Great video!

[@jadedmayberry]

The fact that so many people missed the joke here is hilarious! Great video as always!

[@golfhound]

great video, if you can find as good a driving range. One other step would be to clean your grips once every six months or more depending on how often you use them.

[@russbenoit6061]

Yeah sure "joke". It's a "joke" now that you've been called out for it. This was the last Mr Short Game video I'll watch.

[@Svinky-mate]

I'd get shot if i tried smuggling an extra large bucket of golf balls into my car boot like you just did mate.

[@Shankaporomous]

Yes, bad advice thanks for pointing that out

[@Thachosenone40]

$30 for a bucket and short game area is insane

[@Billy-cl7jf]

I have been to that range once and I will never go back. It's a joke.

[@Marke522]

Actually it seems kinda normal for the courses I've been playing recently. Where do you live? A green fee here in the KC metro is usually 45-80, and another 20 or so for a bucket. I played in Scottsdale a few months ago where a green fee was closer to $200.

[@electroelysium2281]

10$ for a big bucket and access to the short game practice as well... Close to where I live.

[@alexanderlabrea]

@@Marke522 Equivalent of 6 dollars for 50 balls, maybe 8 if they have Toptracer or Trackman. Never been to any course here in Sweden where the short game are isn't free. 22 dollars for a bucket seems borderline illegal.

[@donniehickman7928]

I pay $8 for 70 balls

[@golfhound]

1. wear your golf shoes. 2. go to short game area first, if range has one. 3. have a practice plan . ie spend a lot of time in the bunker, if they have one, 4. practice putting have a plan for practicing pitting never use range balls for putting. USE YOUR REAL GOLF BALLS 5. tap putter on green every time you sink a putt. becomes positive reinforcement. 6. do not wear ear phones while practicing. 7. don't need largest size bucket 8. choose different spot on driving range every time 9. if possible, move mat towards target 10. look for free range balls 11. always work your wedges, wear it out. bonus: always clean your grooves. Secret: you might not view "borrowing range balls until next time" but the driving range does view it as stealing.

[@m444ss]

[@twostate7822]

7. don't need largest size bucket Yes, get 5 of the next biggest size bucket because they are lighter to carry! 😀 I used to live by a range where the tees were a long distance from the clubhouse where you got the range balls, so people would get several buckets at a time to minimize walking back and forth. I'd frequently see guys with 3 jumbo size buckets (around 150 balls or so) banging away as fast as they could.

[@ryanburd3140]

Tip no.12 stop hitting on mats!!!!!!! They are very deceiving and do not replicate a real shot!

[@breakthrough8628]

It truly depends in what your practice session is planned around. For example if ur looking to work on working the ball, then it dont matter much. Some intentions of practice need grass such as compression since how divots are taken matter

[@ryanburd3140]

@@breakthrough8628 well for new golfers you should never use mats let's go that far. I know someone who goes to the range and uses mats and will say "oh I'm hitting so good" then gets to the course and hits them fat!

No Earbuds- Check Different Bays- Check Short Game- Check Wedges- Check Taking Balls with You- ABSOLUTELY NOT I all appreciate how generous you are when you travel and the effort you put into making every video. But taking range balls and leaving. That will get you banned at ranges around this area. It’s just a bad look.

[@tigerman1978]

And the reason is that if 10 people does that every day, that range ball dispenser run out of balls QUICK and contrary to popular beleif, those balls are nowhere near free for the facility. When thousands of balls "go missing" guess what happens to the prices for using the driving range?

[@brewtalityk]

lol if you have the money to play golf but not spend $60 of 50 golf balls... you need help

[@lawaynekimbro8179]

Tip #13.. after working with specific clubs or whatever you hit with on the range.. save about 20 or so balls and at then visualize playing a couple of holes that you know/remember well.. setup.. pre shot your drive.. hit.. based on the flight/landing pretend you are there now for the next shot.. pre shot routine..hit etc.. play 2, 3, 4, etc holes. Range practice with specific clubs is fine… but remember that on the real course you’re not hitting your driver or 7 iron 10-15 times in a row…

[@GerryC-1111]

I knew the second u said take the balls with you. People were going to lose their minds! 😂 So predictable! Love your videos!!!

[@drivingwithryan5857]

30 bucks for a range session?!?! Fuck that. $14 for a large bucket here in Ohio with free short range practice.

[@littletiger59]

Most public ranges have some portion of balls that are in crap condition (warn dimples, cuts, etc.). My tips: 1) Don't hit the crap balls as the flight can give you misleading information. 2) If you do hit the crap balls, use them on your shorter clubs where ball flight is shorter. Save the best balls for your longer clubs. If a ball is really trashed with big cuts, throw it in the trash on your way out. You'll be doing the range and future guests a favor.

[@twostate7822]

My nearest ranges uses very limited flight golf balls so basically every ball you hit gives misleading information. They started out using regular range balls but there was a report that somebody got hit past the end of the range, so they almost immediately switched to the short flight balls. I don't have the time or patience to fight traffic for an hour to get to a range where they use regular range balls.

[@stevecaldwell5165]

Maybe tip number *11 should be “Pass on the good golf practice vibes by leaving the free golf balls you found at the range.” 😂

[@isthereanavailable]

I couldn't help but laugh. One range by me has signs posted saying taking range balls home is stealing and will prosecute. That's why I get the small bucket and search for the donations. LOL

[@edlo8099]

Before hitting the range, where you can't retrieve the balls,always use your bucket of balls for chipping practice first.

[@The-OC]

I know a few guys at my local range that will hit the range balls into the practice net for a good while, then hit them out into the range, such a great cheat code, they'll be fully warmed up, they work on their body motion first, then and get twice the ball strikes for ya £££'s.

[@Sarconthewolf]

Yeah, I always start from my lowest wedge to warm up. I then go through every club in the bag starting from my 60 wedge to the driver. After that, I pretend to play a hole. Starting from driver, maybe a wood or long iron, then a hundred yard club, to a wedge. Then repeat using different clubs each time.

[@rdb223]

@edlo8099 That is such a good tip. The pitching green is right beside the range where I go. There's never anyone on it either. I could pitch and chip a whole bucket. To warm up for my driver.

[@jackgoff4859]

I just use my own balls on the chipping area, as mentioned in this video, better to use the balls you're actually going to use on the course for the short game...not like you're going to lose them chipping (hopefully).

[@mikedoyle2023]

​@@Sarconthewolf I have the same exact routine. 👍

[@phileoness]

I pay $30/mo for a range pass at my course. It’s not nearly as nice as that place, but I like not concerning myself with the cost when I go practice. It also motivates me to not let it go to waste. Plus, when I go out to play, I can grab warmup bucket, hit a few and not be concerned, again, with the cost. Our green fees are also part of the membership. Small town life!

[@jelliott8424]

3 miles down the road from this facility in San Diego you can get the same deal for $45/mo, plus a discount on rounds and drinks with preferred tee times This place is seriously nice and in the middle of a high $$ valley, the price is high but it is premium. I sometimes go there for the batting cages

[@afisguru26]

As someone that works at a driving range, unfortunately too many out there think as you joked. But it is theft. Our range allows you to put your name on a note any we will hold your in hit partial bucket behind the counter for up to a week so you can hit them later. If you are caught taking range balls and or baskets you will not only be asked to leave but also no longer welcome at our facility. The same goes for bringing another ranges balls to ours. Trust me we know who is doing it and have asked people to leave because of it. You are renting the balls to be hit on our range and also paying for use and upkeep of the facility, equipment and wages for staff.

[@user-kd2cf9pu4y]

Matt, I just want to thank you for fixing my cupped left wrist. I had to square the club face and still got to a 5 handicap but now I'm confident that I'll lower it. Hope to meet and thank you personally one day. You're the best!

[@Icehso140]

We have a range that is also a par 3/4 course. The first original holes are all par 3. The additional holes were made par 4. I hit my driver at the range and work my short game on the course. $11 for 9 holes is a good deal. 175 yard par 3s, and 375 yard par 4 to finish, with many raised tees and greens. Used to be an old farm.

[@twostate7822]

Quoting "Master of your wedge domain".... Reminded me of the Seinfeld episode where they coined the term "Mater of my Domain". 😂 Taking unhit range balls at the end of the day? I actually saw an old guy do that at the local range one day. He had about half a bucket left, and opened up the big pocket on his golf bag and poured the golf balls into his bag. He told a couple of friends that he'd be back the next day. 😵 Expensive range. The muni golf range closest to me charges $15 for 100 balls, but you can load up a range card and get discounts the more you prepay. My effective cost is around $12 for 100 balls. The short game area looks great. I don't have anything close to that that's less than about an hour in traffic.

[@5Iron]

- Stretch before you swing - Don't dump all the balls in the tray and hit, hit, hit. Just take 3 balls out of the bucket. After each 3 think about it then hit 3 more - Don't use the same club over and over. Mix it up. You don't hit the same club over and over at the course.

[@Power5]

Never understood that last one. I am working on my swing. Working on the club path to stop over the top swings. In any sport practice until it is muscle memory. Why would I not be using the same club and making multiple swings in a row until I get that feel with the right flight? The point of the range is to practice. Whatever you need to practice should be the focus. Generalized rules do not make much sense to me.

[@Roberto-bd9fq]

I have been watching many years and always enjoy MSG. I liked seeing him at the Good-Good Cup, or at the Golf Shows, or whatever. Golf is not just technique it's also where your head is at, and MSG's is in the right place. Have a plan, have a good attitude, and practice. Putting. chipping, practice is key, not just 10 minutes prior to a round. I can't tell you how many times people say, "what time are you out," when I'm on the practice putting green. "It's a practice day," is my answer, sometimes. If you are time constrained an hour on the greens is worth more than a round of golf, especially for putting. Difficult if you don't have the time, but if you do it will really pay off. Also maintain equanimity of mind on the course. Don't get too high over good shots or too low over bad ones.

[@Tyler-A]

Im struggling to figure out why this place is top 10 in the country. My local range has all these amenities and more, at more than half the price.

[@8AD858D8]

Who likes being on the driving range when the group next to you shows up and starts behaving like they came there to chit chat instead of practice? As if you don't have enough swing thoughts to deal with.

[@stratovani]

One more tip. When I go to the range one thing I always do is practice my preshot routine. I do it on every shot on the course, and you need to practice it at the range.

[@BlackMamba-ec4dn]

No no no no. Do not take the range balls home. The range needs those balls to stay in circulation. If everyone did that, the range would need to double the number of balls in its inventory. How much does a range ball cost? At least a dollar, I’d say. How much does it cost to pick them up and clean them every cycle? Taking the balls away just increases operating costs.

[@Fisha695]

I wouldn't say it's $1 a ball probably works out to about $0.25 a ball or cheaper when they're buying them in bulk at 10,000+ balls at a time. I mean doesn't make it any better tho lol

[@theythinkimmadyouknow]

Tip No.1 Move house to be near a range with short game and bunkers (i.e. nowhere in the UK)

[@michaelfenton4878]

Hey Matt, there are a few things you forgot to mention. 1. Never go to a driving range that has mats. A golf course is grass and mats screw up your game because you have to swing differently because you can't hit down and take a divot on a mat. 2. Hole 5 bunker shots before moving on (learned that from Gary Player on a Playing Lessons from the Pros with Gary Player on the Golf Channel). 3. Hole 10 chips before moving on. 3. Get some friends and play horse in the chipping area and try to come up with ridiculously difficult shots for each other such as hitting flop shots over 30 foot trees, hitting shots through the "Y" in the branches of a well groomed tree, hit shots from a buried lie in the bunker where you can barely see the top of the ball. 4. Use your own balls for chipping and putting (very, very important) 5. The best thing I ever did is play in a Friday afternoon skins game with 10-12 of us in one group. Anything goes. You could talk, yell, scream, throw tees at the guy hitting, talk a little s*it. It totally desensitizes you to the external things around you. Now when I'm playing golf, someone will apologize for talking in my backswing. I tell them, don't worry about it, I didn't even notice. Those are 5 ways to get seriously focused and become a better golfer.

[@davidluck1678]

Right down the road at Tecolote Canyon you can get a bucket of range balls a day for $45 a month. If you want to go to a top 10 driving range in the middle of a tourist city, you are gonna pay for it and if you want to play golf at a nice course, it is going to cost you $$ no matter where you go.

Oh, and dang right about the music. In putting, I concentrate on pace. First, I go through my putting swing for 5 min, then just pace. I do the TW method, visualizing the roll of the ball thereby feeling the pace and then looking at the ball while still looking at the roll of the ball in my head. My body does the rest.

[@MrShortGame]

Stop playing alone and put some cash on the line. Pressure will make you better.

[@silvermediastudio]

I'll share a favorite putting drill: Stand at the hole or a tee in the green, take one step drop a ball. Step again drop a ball. Step, drop, step, drop. You now have four balls on a line at 1, 2, 3, and 4 steps out. Measure the distances or know your stride length. Address ball #1, out loud say "three feet" or "one step." Putt it for pace. Address ball #2, out loud "six feet" or "two steps." Putt for pace. Repeat down the line, and repeat in four (or better eight) radials from the hole. This does two things: 1) imprints a brain connection between the distance and the stroke strength and 2) gives you a measurement system you can quite literally take to the course. Just step it out.

[@brewcrewfishing]

Ordered 2 belts. Thank you for the discount code MSG!

Agreed to take any balls you don't use as long as you go back to the same range. ALSO, xtra-xtra-tip: take any non-range balls that wind up in your bucket.

I don't get where playing load music, smoking big cigars, and drinking until you can't hit the ball comes from. Just enjoy being outside and the golf course. Listen to your strike. You can get better just by relaxing a bit.

Mr short game quotes of the day “have to be able to feel your balls”, “you can get smaller and be more efficient”, “as long you are doing these correctly, shoot half of this will even work”, “grab your junk and go somewhere else” 😂😂 but seriously this video has helped me to practice with a plan. Appreciate the content

Agreed short game is needed on every single hole you can score good with a mediocre long and mid game with a good short game.

I bought the same black Vessel golf bag earlier this summer. I was looking for a luxury carry bag, and I found it!

The best advise..

I go to that range every week. It would have been cool to see you there.

How to you feel about hitting off mats vs grass range? Mats seem to give me more forgiveness which doesn’t help my game when going to the course. But I do realize hitting off a mat is better than not practicing.

[@MrShortGame]

Grass is much better

I practice two putting and that has helped me immensely. I take 3 balls, and when i put a ball in play, it is live until it is in the hole.

[@beaujangles2215]

funny you mention cleaning the grooves, I do it after every shot with my irons if needed while on the course, and it bugs the crap out of my golf buddy...lol

Wish there was a range around here that had even a chipping green ,asking for sand trap aint gonna happen…there are a few chipping green ones but theyre usually at courses that have a range too

I never have bunker sand that loose. It's always wet and heavy and much more difficult to get out high. Soft sand like that you just splash it and out it goes. Where I am-that's a flub to about 2 feet in front of you. Just noting the differences in the bunker. I spend 30% on the putting 10% bunker 30 percent chipping and 10% driving and 20% long irons.
