5 THINGS PROS DO That Most Golfers Don't // with PGA/LPGA Tour Coach Gareth Raflewski

[@jcstreck74]

I’ve loved these vids with Gareth. The wedge matrix and now these 5 top tips. It’s not always the physical, but our prep and mindset can have as much or more affect on our game than our swing itself. Great stuff guys. Keep it coming!

[@dabaumga]

Great stuff! Anytime Gareth is with the lads it's gold!

[@paulmoscicki2038]

Gentlemen, this is one of the best videos that you have produced, and I say this with the feeling that the bar is very high to begin with. The only disappointing part was that it ended. The amount of knowledge and insight that you are exposing us to is invaluable and frankly, difficult, if not impossible to find elsewhere. By having Gareth on you have given us Christmas early. Thank you.

[@jonathanstevens2937]

Tee ball is immense. When ive got a reliable option, im going low; when i cant count on a functional tee shot, I might shoot 10 strokes higher. Spent the better part of one summers golf going from horrible to acceptable to nearly good at 0-5ft putts, which was also good for about a 3 shot permanent reduction in my index.

[@tomburns9732]

Sound quality wasnt so bad. Content was great. Could you do another video on the next 5 things that the pros do that ams may not necessarily do. Love the vid

[@TommyDawson]

Such a high quality video. I think many of us focus on making big changes to get better when in reality, it's the small ones that make the biggest difference. I love the idea of getting a little better at all aspects and it paying off.

[@brianstevens3514]

Excellent video content! Ian , You commented near the end that everyone wants quick improvement. We have become an instant gratification society to where most people don't want to put the work in necessary to make those gains. Minimal gains are the best as they are lasting. If it were easy everyone would be good at it! I appreciate you having Gareth on and his perspective compliments Ian and Matt so well. Thanks for what you bring to us!!

[@MikesaBhoy]

Personal preference, but these are so much better than the new equip testing vids.

This is such a great series.

[@thegolfingmusician6345]

This is so helpful! Please have Garett on regularly? Or if he has a channel we can view as well?

[@aidangriffiths5075]

He has his own website with video tutorials, it's so so good

[@kyleleskiw5644]

Instead of the ruler, I love the medicus putting alley 😁 same idea, but a couple options for "dispersion" control

[@marcopellegrini3883]

Gareth content is so valuable. Thank you to him for sharing his knowledge and for you guys at TXG to host him. Equipment is cool and all but this is the stuff that will make an impact on my game.

Very helpful, great content.

[@Adam-M]

Audio issues or not, great freaking video. Thanks

[@TedInoue]

I'm confused about wedge strike position. During your discussion, you said the ideal strike point is groove 4, center of the club. But then Matt hit it on groove one or two, at the bottom of the club, and you said that's perfect. Where exactly are you supposed to hit the ball on the face?

[@smkgolf]

They said no higher than 5, ideal for your pros is 3. Lower on the face is more forgiving than higher. I would much rather hit groove 1-2 than groove 5-6 consistently, more consistent distance & spin

[@pipebliss]

Gareth is Gold!

[@CraigalFun]

Nice irons matty! Nice shaft choice 👌

[@christopheryee1356]

Thanks for these informative videos. Instead of Matty moving his sternum forward of the ball, could he place the ball back in his stance and maintain his posture?

[@brianellis5146]

Okay... so lets recap the 5 things to make you a better golfer. (1) hit the ball straighter off the tee. (2) hit your wedges properly, (3) sink more puts, (4) know how far you hit your irons & (5) Be fit and healthy... 😉 Got it!

[@joshuaking1194]

Simple as that!

[@budfox2337]

Thanks

[@juanpatricio9204]

Audio was fine!

[@ubute]

One thing pros do much better is to create, harness and channel the forces generated during the golf swing, especially those acting on the clubhead during the downswing and through impact.

[@timmyinMB]

Fabulous work Gents. Love these. Please keep ‘em coming!

[@tyerambo7963]

Being 26 and working on a ranch and I workout a lot. I get to play once a week in a scramble night I notice I can't be consistent in anything (ball speed, flexibility mostly) any tips on how to stay getting stronger or in shape and still keep playing decent golf.

[@t3golf]

Find a rhythm that allows you to swing smooth. Not slow, not fast. Smooth. As you continue to get physically stronger, your club speed will naturally increase. By finding a good rhythm, you’ll stay in balance more. That will lead to finding the middle of the club face more which means better ball striking, more distance, tighter dispersion, lower scores, & more fun.

[@xxthadeucexx]

If you came here, it was for the information they provide and not an audio hiccup. Please don't complain unless you're a rival golf content provider. If you are a rival content provider, step your game up...now sit down and pay attention to how it's done. EDIT: These CC are kinda funny.

Scott Fawcett won’t be happy hearing “eliminate one side of the golf course”

[@sclerocarpets]

Me: Oh the audio isn't that bad... Matt: *Swings driver* Me: Time to replace my eardrums

[@Hoggar10]

Eliminate one side of the course isn’t reflected in many players games?

[@CarnivoreDMD]

My drive is a cut or fade to right, if I aim left fairway, I pull it! Golf is hard.

[@michaeldonaldson8508]

What type of watch did gareth say he has?

[@felipepacheco7655]

whoop strap.

[@joey5picks]

You can't "eliminate one side of the golf course". See Scott Fawcett and Lou Stagner and how Dustin Johnson doesn't "eliminate" the left side of the golf course

[@TxRedMan]

You’ll know you’re there when the miss is a low spinner. Looks like it’s going use the green for a launch pad; grabs the e-brakes instead.

[@matthewpocock4824]

A left handed golfer at last!

[@swisstrader]

Didn’t really understand number 2 with putting and the ruler

[@soldsold1]

You just put the ball on the ruler at one end and putt along it. If the ball stays on the ruler the putt is straight, if it falls off left or right before it gets to the end of the ruler you are pushing or pulling the putt.

[@AmarHujan]

Eliminate the double cross...not one side of the course #DECADE

[@mangoman2148]

Yep. You can blow it into the left trees all day and brag that you 'eliminated one side of the course'. Focus on working your shape consistently, then centre your shot pattern where it maximises your chance of staying in play.

Really disappointing that the audio is so bad on such an important & interesting vlog. Unlike your usual professionalism.

[@vivitoisright382]

1- they get pay to play 2- they get free clubs and clothes 3- they almost never take penalty stroke for lost balls because tv camera or crowd will find it for them 4- they play on courses in perfect conditions ,if they were to play our courses they will marked the entire course as ' area under repair' 5- their driving range balls are better than the new balls we play on course. Our driving range balls look like the go thru shredder. And they wonder why we don't get better.

[@maplesirup24]

lol. I see a bunch of excuses. Pro's became pro's by growing up under many of the same conditions you golf in now. And yet they made to be pro's. You describe the "after" they made it conditions and not the before. How do these affect your putter face control? Controlling the low point of your swing? You own personal fitness? You don't get better because you carry these excuses as to why you can't get better and yet other people get better under those same conditions each and every day. But yes, the driving range ball is why you are not a better golfer. Somehow Lee Trevino became one of the greatest ball strikers of all time it hitting (and picking) those same range balls.

[@stevecassidy9019]

@@maplesirup24 I mean I agree that these are mostly excuses but to say that pros grew up golfing the local muni is just dumb. Theres a reason most of the golfers on tour were well off growing up. Most of the guys that make it grew up at a country club. Surprise, if you have more money you have better access to better instructors and facilities which are the things that will make you better. As well as the cost to travel for golf tournaments. Guys like Gareth don't teach for cheap.
