swoon lol

[@diuneimaaaaaa]

Hold me dan

[@mikep6064]

So funny, but you are not wrong.

[@AndreeB19]

Me too !!! Hopefully I will, as I am attending one of his golf school soon 🤸‍♀️

[@gregormckinney621]

Great to see a coach doing well on KZbin due to their quality of knowledge rather than the usual algorithm chasers.

[@nigeltaylor8800]

A superb lesson in every part of the short game, thanks Dan and thanks Matt.

[@josephbarrett371]

"I am really enjoying the longer videos, Dan! Your content is great and it provides simple swing thoughts to take to the chipping green. I would love to see more videos focused on shots from 50-100 yards. As some of us may not be getting the distance and flight that we would expect."

[@dapperdank3701]

Yes yes and more yes

[@richardheathcote1014]

Matt seems to think about golf in a similar way to me, so the instruction here was super helpful for me. Thanks Dan! Have yourself a coffee or a beer as a thank you

[@piazzaj88]

Amazing video as always, Dan. Thank you so much for these long form videos!

[@JTMayo803]

Dan’s is always direct and intentional while still being patient with positive energy. So easy to follow and able to connect the action with the results. The best!

[@herbertsutherland7690]

He is so very patient with his students.

[@paraickelly7651]

cant believe how much watching dan gives these lessons makes me want to go to the chipping green instead of the range

[@newwyuk]

Yet another fantastic video, the little interview about matts career part way through was also great

[@TheGeordieGolfer]

Love these long form lessons Dan. Helping me improve my short game do much. ❤

[@stevemazzilli4006]

i cant wait to meet Dan someday! his videos are incredible. excellent teacher.

[@charlesgunn9729]

Your teaching golfing IQ is very insightful, fantastic help to better your game. Thank you!

[@gavinsayer8130]

I really like the simplicity of the approach & your teaching style as well - not blinding with science, just a clear diagnosis & drills to fix.

[@shrkys4]

Thank you for a fabulous lesson Danny G and Matt G! Love the content as it addresses faults and concepts useful to a lot of different levels.

[@GraceCharisoxx]

hello handsome thanks for your love and support love and care on my golf career, i pray God continue to bless you

[@bazabollox]

Yet another top video Dan. My chipping & pitching have improved immensely since discovering your teaching. Have the ebook, excited to see what your new online teaching will bring. A massive thank you Dan for your eye opening teaching.

[@LasVegasSteve]

Knowledge overload !!! So many great hints and tips. MG is on another level when it comes to Golf, and he seems genuinely delighted with what he picked up. Looking forward to speaking with Dan when I next play Woburn 😍

[@petercurrie3953]

Brilliant, your instructions (thru you tube) has helped me get down from 12 to 6.4 We are always saying release 1,2or3 on course ❤ it 😂

[@2511dukeland]

Dan, you’re amazing! keep up the brilliant teaching videos. When I pair it with the book lessons, it’s a Masterclass. I feel completely confident 100 yards and in. Thank you 🙏🏾

[@ajbischoff4086]

Always a great experience watching your videos.

[@markcrawford4912]

Dan you are a genius 🤣 these videos are so good my shirt game has changed so much since watching them top class 👏🏼👏🏼

[@erch8262]

Thanks Dan Your bunker tips have transformed my bunker play..I actually look forward to being in a Greenside bunker if I am going to miss the Green..

[@mossy44sammoss]

I’ve learnt loads from this, was doing the exact same thing in my bunker shots, excited to try this out to get some height and spin finally!

[@ericshay5621]

GREAT series of shots. Thank you!

[@t-moneyflotown8433]

Really great stuff Dan! I like these longer videos. I’ve got the short-game yips, and believe these techniques are going to be my ticket out of them. The techniques, and a lot of work. I’ve got something to work on though. So, thank you for that!👍🏻👍🏻

[@Blackbart6668]

Thanks!

[@johnbrown-wi6zy]

i Was always shown understanding how the grip end works in relation to the head, was such an easy way to learn! its all about the opposites in Golf.

[@paulmarjoram2258]

Great instruction to a good student. Nice Guys! Thanks

[@davidmonk6139]

Matt had the equivalent of winning a ticket to Willie Wonka’s Chocolate Factory. A lesson from Dan would change your life. Great stuff.

[@gregallen1160]

Cracking video Matt took everything onboard quickly can tell has a good golfing IQ

[@waynemorgan5603]

I love this format. Was looking forward to the contest at the end 😊 They've all been with better golfers though. I struggle with contact on r1, and shanks on r2. I'd love to see this type of lesson with a student whose short game is as bad as mine.

[@jimbosgolfingchannel]

congrats on 100k Dan! Just got the book and loving it

[@DanGrieveGolf]

Thanks hope it helps 👍

[@gavinsayer8130]

Fantastic video - really fascinating - that's my issue, dropping it under the plane on the downswing - wish I could have a lesson with you Dan !!!!

[@rickthompson9585]

Love the practice movement where You don’t hold the club and you just turn your hips and shoulders while holding hands down and pivoting back and forward. Just getting this rhythm and the feel of the flow has helped loads. Now before I hit I do this a couple times then maintain the feel in my practice swings. It helps clear my mind, stop thinking and worrying, and just feel the rhythm of the swing.

[@matthewwalters9980]

I’ve gotten a few lessons from Dan and he does a great job

[@AndyGlavac]

Another great video Nice to see that even a great athlete struggles with the game

[@MrJujitsu1]

Great video! Very informative and great feel drills! Mahalo

[@LeslieGreenwood-bu9tn]

congrats for 100 k subs Dan.

[@davebone1104]

This is gold, thank you Dan

[@mntlblok]

Would love to see the miss at 30:20 dissected a bit more. Dan suggested that the back swing might have been a bit short, but when I played it back, I didn't get that sense. Maybe some "knee flinch"? Said it was a "reaction". Understanding such "reactions" would be of value it would seem, especially when such a fellow is otherwise striking so many quality shots. Late on the "release"? "Pulled on it". The "soft ground" stayed in place for most strikes. Maybe it's asking too much of current technology to get a complete look at what's going on with the club/ground interaction down there (super slomo?) - especially on such "misses".

[@mntlblok]

Spoke too soon. He *did* dissect it more - longer, slower back swing and down swing making the knee move unnecessary.

[@mntlblok]

The skull at 34:11. Frame by frame (using the period key) just doesn't look that bad! Just a high risk situation that one must accept? Maddening!

[@mntlblok]

"Strap the arms on" - meaning elbows tight together? (43:30 Nope - "fold em"!) New concept to me. Guess I'll be watching Ernie more closely now.

[@chase_hanna]

Old guy in the background had a perfect release 4, loose grip, and 3 shakes. Perfect execution 😂

[@nmitch73able]

Really enjoying these. The last couple of years I've gone from poor to mediocre by focusing on my 54 wedge and right arm/hand. Get a much softer flight and finally know what the bounce is for. If you were in Switzerland like me I'd book an appointment to upgrade from mediocre 🤣

[@JonathanBifield]

Great vid - thank you Dan

[@MichaelWoods-fc8me]

So good!

[@xbocax16]

Can you do one of these but with a high handicapper so we can see the evolution in one lesson?

[@nicksparkes1378]

And i will be the mid/high handicap player Dan 😊 please

[@algernonwolfwhistle6351]

Very interesting array of short-game situations and shots. Somewhat surprising to me that any golfer could achieve a scratch handicap with just a functional short-game. Maybe if a player possesses an exceptionally good long-game then the short-game becomes much less important. It will be interesting to come back in a year, having practiced diligently at these situations to see how much of an improvement has been made in terms of handicap. I would expect to see him off plus 2 or 3 all other things being equal.

[@karlosmorales32]

Best videos about short game genius

[@MrDunna100]

Great video but be lovely to see more shots from face on to get a better idea of setup and what’s happening through the shot

[@DonAl9114]

Perfect session. 😊😊😊😊

[@davehurley26]

Another amazing video 👍

[@edgelaad1992]

Oh to have just a 1/4 of Dan's short game talent 😍

[@kevingallagher7507]

That's a proper round of golf. 40mph wind and pissing rain. Makes you feel alive! 😁

[@aurelienpoyart6489]

Hey Dan. Amazing video. For release 1 Rachel seemed to have a more in-line (outside?) backswing and less right hip rotation compared to Matt who has a more inside backswing and right hip rotation. Which is preferable (while keeping the clubhead outside the hands) ? thanks for this great content !

[@hakirk1]

During the early part of the lesson you referred to the chipping as R1 but as I watched the student most of the chips and release looked more like R2. Am i totally confused as I thought I was getting an understanding. Love these long lesson videos.

[@DanGrieveGolf]

Not sure, I don’t tend to watch the videos back, but I don’t normally leave any confusion, maybe watch it back

[@hakirk1]

@@DanGrieveGolf thanks. I think this is a great learning video and to me it seems like the club was stopping like a R2 , but I could be wrong. I only wish I lived on your side of the Atlantic.

[@paulbooij7594]

I am going to watch this twice and mine it for gold that is relevant for me.

[@Seniortoscratch]

Great videos. How does distance get controlled? Is it using different clubs or a longer follow through?

[@sonny2480]

When's the "If you stand in my footprints" bunker polo being released 😂

[@bryanpowell7875]

It's amazing when he hits a bad one Dan knows exactly why.

[@tjy698]

Dan I've been practicing with this very gentle release, light grip pressure, not driving with the legs. At the simulator I am getting that 1.0 smash factor. But I've noticed when I have a lie in the rough I'm still struggling matching the distances I had off the mat. What should I be thinking about out of the rough that will help me get through the ball?

[@kylearcher5938]

Hi Dan, I’ve recently started playing golf and I purchased a full set/bag of clubs (Cobra Fly XL) but I’m struggling with shots close to the green. I need to purchase some wedges I feel, which degree/s would you recommend a new golfer to purchase and will more than likely be used more than others? Thanks, Kyle.

[@jonmwin]

Dan. love the vids and learning loads. Can i use release two off mats at driving range? As I've no where to practice pitching at my golf club. Thanks

[@DanGrieveGolf]

Yes fine to work on it where suits

[@jonmwin]

@@DanGrieveGolf thanks Dan.

[@shakes2966]

How do you get that earlier release feeling without skulling the ball?

[@215DS]

Any chance you wanna come to Pennsylvania? My short game could use you

[@EhtizanEditor1]

Hey Dan, I just watched your video and I must say that it was really informative and well-made. I was wondering if I could help you edit your videos and repurpose your long videos into highly engaging shorts? I can also make high CTR thumbnails for your channel

[@jordanaustin4576]

Hey Dan I live in Arizona and the ground is super hard and dry on mosy courses, if I need a lofted shot how do I achieve it?

[@briangastaldi6136]

I've just started using the toe down, high hands, stand close to the ball, out to in nipper Dan describes in his book and several videos, it's awesome! You just about need your eyes over the ball and aim to hit the ball and ground at the same time. Stiff wrists, no hinge. It's tough to judge but will send the ball up in the air, it will roll out a bit too

[@normanwgilbert]

Studied the book, watched the videos, now just got to come over from NZ for a weekend course...mate, youre dreaming. Yes I am but dreams sometimes do come true.

[@frankcacciola2519]

Do you recommend no glove for short game? Does that help feel and grip pressure?

[@DanGrieveGolf]

I prefer no glove, helps you feel the shot better

[@nebraska39]

Amazing content, always take something away from these video's even though I am not the lucky recipient of the lesson, I know he's not current but Jimmy Bullard is the best footballer golfer I have seen, time to have a match?

[@DanGrieveGolf]

Think they already have…

[@finlay2299]

Is it just me, or did he still never really move back his right hip?

Just you 👍

Isn't Matt taking a lot more divots than Dan usually teaches? Seems he's not using the bounce.

Ground was absolutely sodden so divots inevitable.

Maaan if you don't turn your hips! 😅

[@atb2003]

Nothing on how to ensure you hit behind the ball, I suppose he is a scratch golfer and has the feel but for us that are scare in the bunker we need more instruction
