Difference Between Breaking 70 and Breaking 80 - Where To Pick Up Shots 69 v 80

[@TheToeOfEarl]

I caddied for 5 years at top courses across the U.S. Caddied for several pros while working at these courses. Baddeley, Couples, Ogilvie at his home course the same year he won the open 06. I also caddied for countless players who struggle with this game. This guy is distilling all the best advice I could ever give a player into damn near each shot. Well done! I'm deeply skeptical of most "golf tip" videos but these are legitimately the best "mental game" of golf videos around. Pay attention, people.

[@230662steve]

A couple of good Aussies there mate. Hope you looked after them 😉

[@TheToeOfEarl]

@@230662steveI still say Baddeley was probably one of the most naturally talented golfers I've ever seen. He could have shot 8+ under each round I looped with his group and he was as casual about it as could be. Tee to green he was unreal... Just couldn't get the putts to drop. Story of his career I suppose.

[@somerandomguy706]

I shot 89 and 79 on back to back days on the same course. I could claim that it was a drastic swing change, but I was definitely more sober for the 79.

[@felixmonserrate4436]

I have been following you playa for about 3 weeks now and your approach to the game has been a HUGE help. I have always hit the ball well, but not smart...trying to muscle every shit. I started with your tip regarding adding 1 stroke to every hole(play par 4s as par 5s and so forth, break long approach shots into two shots) and my scores have improved EASILY by at least 5 strokes. I have gone from lower to middle 90s, to mid to upper 80s. As my mental approach to the game improves, I am sure my scores will follow. THANKS!

[@benbeara]

I wanted to say that I love this video because it's very informative on how to approach a golf course the next time around. The number of times that I played the same golf course and just take out the same club, aim down the same line, and hit the same shitty shot befuddles me. This is the next time for me to incorporate once the deep freeze here in Canada passes... hopefully in three months! Keep up the excellent work, oh wise one! :)

[@gamingdekap]

Are those circles around the hole some sort of "you can pick that up" indicator? First time seeing it but it's a pretty good idea if it is.

[@justinorr2536]

I've thought the same. Must be a gimme ring

[@TheDavidBangkok]

Quite common on Thai courses, yeah, it basically the gimme distance to keep the speed of play up. They often allow 6-balls which tend to play super slow if everyone putts out.

[@chriswalters7910]

Screen time or t.v. time right before bed is a killer for sleep as well as not allowing your mind time to relax and shut down before going to sleep. Keep up the great work P.I.C.

[@GolfSidekick]

Only if I am confident with the line and the line is not OUTSIDE the hole. Then I just tap them in. On the other ones, I have to commit to letting the ball start outside the hole and have confidence it will come in. Commitment, confidence, both can be faked but those 2 things are wht you need. You need to e so confident that you know it will go in even with your eyes closed. I spent most of my childhood on practice greens

[@GolfSidekick]

LOL great sleeper, poor loser!

[@robseago3004]

‘Position off the tee is key’ - for me that’s a choice of potential distance v accuracy - personally gotta sort this one out - it’s my difference between low to mid 80’s and mid to high 70’s. Sort the driver (40% accuracy off tee with too many hazard balls) and/or make correct club choice off the tee. Trouble is I can hit a good drive so decision is when to be conservative.

Bouncing thoughts back and forth makes me lose sleep. Golfing thoughts, how did I play and how will I play next time ruin my sleep and especially morning teetime. I am playing the coming course all night... How I deal with that is that I only focus on staying alive, ie breath. Wim Hof will change my game next season. And Golf Sidekick naturally.

[@GolfSidekick]

Bro breathing is incredibly underrated. Holding the tension in the wrong place, holding the breath, not keeping relaxed, or giving the cells enough oxygen. Huge
