first, props to that guy for shooting his shot. Second, Sarah's swing was waaaaaaaaayyyy better once you helped her with her stance/set-up. You certainly have her on the right track. My wife went through this two years ago and it was amazing how quickly she improved with proper instruction like yours.

Poor feller lol Atleast he was brave enough to shoot his shot with those shoes he had on 😂😂😂

[@sherwinjoseph3737]

OH MY GOSH first thing I saw was those kicks. But I don't blame him one but he is a true hero to all of us men. Both ladies are on a celestial level beauty. Sara we ALL started out that way so don't give up ok. You are great in baseball so you WILL be good in golf

[@kamwo183]

Respect to the bro taking a shot. I’m surprised it doesn’t happen more often! Fantastic video. Sarah, stick with it. Golf is full of peaks and valleys and your game will slowly grow higher peaks. 😊

[@richardabram4596]

😆

[@toofhuny8898]

Definitely get it Sarah - I've gone through the phase you're going through so many times. When it goes well it's awesome, but when I can't hit a ball at all, I have exactly the same thoughts that you are experiencing here. Keep at it though - it's worth it x

[@Koldboi82]

Claire's shoe game is always fire

[@amputter]

Plot twist: Putting green guy is vegan bae 🤣

[@OhNotJohnny]

9:50 every golfer felt that to the core 😂😭

[@dha7013]

Great Vlog. Love the natural feel of this video. Sarah will get better with practice, and she has come a long way. Hope to see more like this. Keep at it!

[@Pittboss4127]

I know for me my eureka moment came with my back swing. I really slowed it down to make sure it was on the perfect plane. Once I did that, I was able to release on the apex and it really squared everything else for me. Hope she doesn't get too frustrated though, it took me years to start to be able to drive well.

[@ronlitteral5715]

Gotta be honest, has to be great having a coach like Claire who has one of the sweetest swings on social media, but props to Sarah for continuing enjoying the toxic relationship golf can bring. Was cool to journey her progression this lesson. Should be helpful for many scared to get started.

[@clooliss6400]

Thank you for not being just another "eye-candy-golf channel". I like looking at pretty people but would MUCH rather them be competent at their content, ya know? Sarah - Best of luck on your golfing growth! Claire - not trying to force you onto a KZbin bandwagon but I personally would LOVE to see you do a "Breaking (w/e score)" series!

[@loverboy_81]

You are a hell of a coach, Claire! You don't berate or talk down. You keep it real and chill. I love it!

[@BigPotatoChill]

Can't blame the guy for trying, but he needs to step up his shoe game.

[@Swifty-sv2my]

Sarah that weight transition and arc of your swing towards the end of the video was WORLDS apart from where you started! golf isn't an easy sport, but if you keep at it, you'll get it eventually! Keep it up!

[@92SAITO92]

Sarah's swing reminds me exactly of my girlfriend's swing. It's almost as if the club is too heavy for them and they're trying to unsuccessfully muscle it through the swing. I definitely give Sarah props for trying to learn the proper way and grinding through it. My gf gets to a point where she doesn't want to listen and starts trying to muscle it again.

[@huntervassar8691]

Great instructor. Patient and encouraging

[@gustafchurn8282]

GoGo Sarah 🌺 May the Grace of God come over you 😉

[@RizeNthryve]

The Number one thing I see from Claire, my future wife is that, she is allowing Sarah's head to see where the ball is going after a swing. This is a big No No especially if she can barely make contact. Claire, instead of putting the club behind her head, place it in front of her head so she can only focus on club to ball contact. Who care's where the ball goes at this point. Ricky Bobby Out

[@clintonwolfe]

great job both of you. i’ve helped pure beginners. it’s TOUGH for both teacher and student lol. i found slightly teeing it up and ball position on front foot helps a ton for confidence of beginners. just getting ball in air is exciting. they tend to swing up at it. interaction with ground is a big challenge can work on once have a decent swing built. keep it up excited to see the progress.

[@josephtate5315]

Keep at it you two. Sara nothing wrong with a slow take away on the backswing. I have been golfing for over 20 years with no professional teaching and I still have a slow take away on my driver. Also shout out to the guy taking his shot at asking the two of you out.

[@epmcguire9983]

I wish you'd wear a mic so I can hear your instructions! Looks good and I can see Shara's improvements. I am looking forward to my next bucket of balls. Lightfoot.

[@laurasplicer712]

Always have new golfer start off rubber tee. Builds confidence. then hit off mat second after few lessons. ✌✌💞💞

[@CBellantoni524]

She’s honestly making great progress for not playing long. I started last year and it took forever to just make contact with the ball. You’re doing great as a coach.

[@curtisanderson1830]

Claire you are learning patient. which a great virtue, eye hand contact is the hardest thing to teach. and some people never have it and never will. in chipping I found a great technique for novice, have Sarah standing sideways with her arm & hands practice pitching the ball underhand to a spot to get her to understand distance. goodluck

[@tonyryan6701]

How does anybody in golf not know who you are??🤷🏽 I’m an old dude & I know..😆

Great video. More practise videos please. I'm a complete beginner golfer also. Anyone know any other videos like this where a beginner is getting lessons?

[@Michael-wk2gn]

I just felt sad for that guy, it was forced, awkward and somewhat rude and it's extremely difficult to start something out of thin air like that. I imagine that happens often to you both. When he was saying "will you be around this weekend" I could see Claire thinking something like "are you asking to be a new student for my golf lessons?" hahaha Great video girls keep up the great work Claire congrats on 100K!

Don't give unsolicited swing advice and don't ask girls out when they're stood next to their friends

[@kalbeeRaimer]

Swing advice for sure should not be given unsolicited, especially when it was clear Claire was giving instruction. But as for the guy, hewas new to the area and saw a pretty woman his age, asked if she was free and she politely declined. Pretty respectful for a cold approach.

[@Adam-tm7qh]

@Kalbee Raimer was one of the most awkward interactions I've ever seen 😂 read the room guy they wanted nothing to do with him after his chipping comment, at least wait until the friend is more than three feet away and they aren't directly talking to the camera

[@kalbeeRaimer]

@@Adam-tm7qh I actually missed the part where he was the guy who said that comment from before. Yeah, that was rude to say and then to ask a girl out after making that sort of comment to her friend is definitely stupid. Changes the context dramatically.

[@bobfrantz768]

Hang in there. I’m trying to get my daughters interested in golfing. You will eventually be able to let out your inner athlete. Golf is just so unnatural. Big props for doing this bc it was obvious you were frustrated but kept at it. Love your videos Claire.

[@tomcallahan5907]

Start her with half swings. Generate confidence in striking the ball. Full swings for beginners are VERY difficult!

[@TaylorRodCarter]

I had one good practice last week then the next one wasn't good things happen but it's the next practice that keeps you going

[@sundarcg11]

Could start with a half swing drills and narrow stance. I found it really helped when I first started. Much smaller swing with less things to think about. Love the context

[@valkyreable]

Remember every single golfer in the world started exactly where she is now

[@johnbarr09]

Poor guy 😁 must be a first though to be hit on whilst having a lesson 🙈 and on camera anyway keep practicing you'll get better for sure Sarah

[@jeffreyljones6577]

The best tip I ever learned about chipping, is the power it takes to toss a ball underhand, is power needed in a chip swing.

[@homeloanswithdan]

at 12 min correct. sway and standing to straight up she need I beleive to bend at the waist and legs to a more balance and sporting position... great job and without a doubt a great teacher... go Claire keep working

[@MrLsaylor]

Claire, love how you are willing to share this process. This is very helpful as I am going through the exact same feelings and obstacles learning golf again after a 20 year hiatus. My kids are in college now and I have picked up the sport again. Can’t wait to see the progress you guys make and learn from it!

[@sfink16]

Neither my wife or myself can swing with jackets on. My wife takes her jacket off to take a swing. I just wear a long sleeve golf shirt with a vest. We play until it gets into the low 40's sometimes, even into the upper 30's. Try removing the coat/jacket for at least some swings.

[@brucedixon5185]

I'm a beginner golfer myself at age 60+. Have fun. Suggestion: For Sarah and any beginner--create a relaxed swing with NO BALL just hitting grass. Whenever my swing thoughts crowd my brain I tense up. I practice in my backyard literally chopping weeds with an old club. Bill Murray in Caddyshack style. Great video.

[@will.m1110]

Get her a speed stick

[@allahalibaba9063]

Golf is a easy game to play just very hard to score...Sarah, just enjoy the journey and remember that in Golf, it is You Who Gets the Benefit of the results...Take it slow and sure...and you will do OK if you have the mind set to do so...

Nice job Coach Claire !! Way to hang in there Sarah. Golf is tough !! And like anything, repetition is the best teacher. Good luck y'all !!

[@ryn10211983]

I get it, she’s doing really good so far

[@rptucker3871]

Sarah, it's two steps forward and one step backwards. Never say to yourself you have it figured out. After 30+ years of playing, I can't say that even if I play the best round of my life. Do one thing for yourself though, pull your hair back and get it out of the feels. Besides that, your setup is looking better already. Learning this game never stops so hang in there.

[@toofhuny8898]

Keep giving Sarah loads of encouragement Clare. It's so much a confidence game of mind over matter.

[@bruceaugustine6486]

To relate it to baseball, when she swings try to hit it over the second baseman's head or out to the right fielder. She is trying to lift the ball instead of hitting in down to the ground, and she is finishing below her left shoulder. i played a lot of baseball and softball and went through the same struggles, worm burners, boomerang slices to the right. I could drive the ball 320 yards,120 yards forward and 120 yards to the right. then someone told me to hit it into the ground out to right field. and i thought well i can't get much worse. So, i went to the range and tried it, holy smokes it went straight and 250 yards on the fly. By the end of the bucket, it was going 275 -290 w/ 90% fairways i couldn't believe it.

[@RayGolfs]

Having her play Lori? The last student? Would be a great finale to the training

[@conk8636]

First thing I’d say is ball set up is way to far back from bottom of her swing , Allignment sticks would help a lot. That and swaying to far back on right side. Hardest game in the world for a reason. Good Luck..

[@Len_Capista]

Golf is such a hard sport to teach because everyones swing is unique to them. What works and feels right to me may not work or feel right to you.

[@gripitandripit]

I’ve seen a lot worse swings from beginners and I think she is doing a handful of good things with young swing. I think it’s important that she has a good swing coach like you because that will help her from developing bad swing mechanics on her own from the beginning. For a lot of people, the longer you have been practicing a bad swing mechanic for, the harder it is to fix it because it’s been ingrained so much in their muscle memory of their golf swings. It won’t be long before she has enough good swing habits that she will see how much fun golf is when she gets a little bit more consistent in hitting better shots.

[@lilubelle3455]

Just found u on my feed fr my new interest in golf & Man ur a great golfer! Lol .. thought u looked like a golf Barbie too lol & seein this vlog made me love ur personality .. u seem like such a great friend/patient coach ❤

[@justinedmundson4775]

I would get her some beginner girl clubs something with graphite super flex shafts so she can build around that. It reminds me Of when I was a kid and playing with a basketball to large for my body. Once I got a ball smaller I was way more athletic!

[@nicholasmiller7538]

You are doing a great job. She is obviously very new to the game. You will both do a great job. She will get better fast with you as a teacher.

[@cliftonmanley3882]

I've been playing golf for 50 years. I've never thought it appropriate to ask anyone, male, female or otherwise, out on a date. When I worked at Southport Golf Club, Queensland, women asked me out on a date, sometimes... but I never would. I might ask them out for a game of golf ⛳️ 🤣👍

lol back to the grind. that was hilarious you needa a vacation from your vacation life. Marcus Aurelius would be amazed 👏

[@Anthony-dh5on]

I not a golfer but I observe things. My opinion is this. I think she is trying to hit the ball and when you do that you change your swing. she starts off at the beginning of her swing good but on her down swing she tries to hit the ball and the swing changes way off course. Just learn that swinging technique and swing at the ball don't think about hitting it because you will

Would teeing the ball up not give Sarah a better chance of a clean hit, better introducing a friend to drink or drugs than a life time of frustration and disappointment with golf.

[@keithclifton5973]

1, Your left wrest is to week 2, Don't lift your left foot of the ground 3, put some of your wait on your left side of your stance 😊

[@ritchiestringer3711]

Clair .. put her in a "plane swing" to give her the "feel" of the right path back and forwards and just let her go from there .. after that it's just time on the range

[@Dietz18]

Do you ever tell golfers to try to hit it different places on the clubface? Like sometimes new golfers have some decent swings but where they think they need to swing to hit it to be solid is totally wrong. I feel like if sarah tried to hit it more towards the toe of the club at the end she would have been hitting some nice shots. Like if she tries to hit the toe she might actually hit the center and vise versa lol

Golf is a difficult Frustrating game.....I have a bad rotator-cuff in my left shoulder from golf. Not from playing golf, but from throwing that ****ing club like helicopter......more than once! That was back in the 80's and I don't throw them anymore.........these game improvement clubs are expensive!

[@SteveJones-g9n]

FRAUD ALERT! SHE WILL PHISH FOR YOUR INFO TO SCAM YOU.

[@financiallyintact2711]

Sorry but you are throwing too much at her for a beginner. Have her do what I call the 9 to 3 drill. Back swing only comes up to 9o'clock and then forward swing only goes to 3 o'clock. I know it sound overly simple but trust me after she hits about 50 she will be hitting the balls consistently. Use the same mid iron the whole time. Then go to a 10 o'cock to 2 o'clock muscle memory will take over and she will be fine. The other thing I notice is that she tends to lean to the right rather than turn to the right. But the 9 to 3 will help solve that too because there is no sway or movement. Hope this helps. I have taught quite a few beginners and this works.

[@mattjudy4187]

we all hit bad shots. she needs to relax and thats why we practice

[@deuceatlcane]

[@AlwaysBeSmiling]

golf is hard....CH a great coach.....many of us have played decades and feel like we haven't gotten any better. Building the proper swing and techniques from someone like CH will only help you with proper building blocks. Takes time! Fun vi- love CH content!!!

[@ericstinnett9182]

You're doing great, just keep trying Rome was not built over night. If you can get in front of mirror, slowly look at your swing without a club, but hands about 2inches apart doing 5-7 swings using a dail on a clock, 15-20 reps. Then grab a club 5-7 swing or 1/4 swing. Then slowly work your way to 3-9 swing repeat. Use your body like before. Thanks

[@throwingdartsandbreakinghearts]

Mad respect to my man trying to chop

[@jeffdenig705]

Do we know Sarah's athletic background? Maybe Tennis? Golf is a Tennis Backhand of sorts or Softball a batting swing on an inclined plane. Monty S. used to have a drill where he had beginners hit a baseball off of a standard height batting tee. Then he would move the tee lower and lower until they were hitting a ball off the ground. Claire, one thing. I think Sarah yanks the club way too far inside on the backswing which makes her lift the club and from there it's Steep City coming down. A cone at hosel length during the backswing and parallel to the foot line would help. Outside the cone going back - inside the cone swinging forward. It's a Mike Bender Drill.

[@rickmason921]

Keep your head up keep it simple little bit at a time

[@sidneydona846]

Ya..Golf is not easy..i've been playing for 10 years n i still suck..just try to stay encouraged..little goals..i'd start like 50% swings..just to get the feel of hitting the ball.then work up from there..good luck!!..it's great you are teaching her so she doesn't pick up bad habits..try not to sway..i do it too but try to stay on your left side..peace.. 💚✌🏽

Hey Claire, what ever was the outcome with you and Lauren and her trying to break 90 ( or was it 80 )? Those vids were like watching an I Love Lucy episode... She sure had some splaining to do ...

[@GolfTechie79]

You're doing great Sarah please persevere. It's very easy to get discouraged when you have a great range session one week and then can't hit a ball the next session - it still happens to me after 15 years of playing! It's very easy to overload beginner golfers with multiple swing desirables but the most important ones are correct setup and as Claire mentioned watch the best golfers swing tempos before practice as it's a vital element of the golf swing.

[@Synister_one]

First, RIP to the poor guy trying to get a date. Should have called for first responders. Sarah, we all think we figured something out. Till we play again lol. I can not tell you how many times I have said that over the years. We are always learning in golf. We are amateurs and not pros plying constantly.

[@golfhawk18]

Sarah, remember that Rome wasn’t built in a day. A good swing and golf game takes time and practice. Claire has you in the right track. And Sarah, love the beautiful eyes.

[@josephcoble9681]

Best episode ever!

[@seanvanwoerkom7231]

Even though she can’t see the ball flight results YET, her swing has improved dramatically! Next time you guys are out I would introduce the concept of hitting down into the ball. Every beginner golfer believes they have to help the ball up which is what creates a lot scooping. But if you get a beginner golfer to think hitting more down into the ball they will often get the ball into the air more consistently because the club head is made to compress.

[@mannyo4231]

Also hitting on camera adds a level of nerves and difficulty...Its like first tee jitters on steroids..Keep at it, we have ALL gone through this.
