Every Beginner Golfer SHOULD Know These 3 Wedge Shots

[@FlyWithMe_666]

Regarding the comments about too much information for a beginner: I agree, but since he records these sessions, it doesn’t really matter as you can re-watch as often as you want (I don’t know if Mike teaches the same way without a camera). There are so many great drills and solid fundamentals in these videos that you can work with for months. E.g. the normal pitch he explains in this video has improved my own pitching so much. I watched it, tried to understand his concept, worked on it, re-watched, worked on it etc. The new coach, Chris, seems to be cool too, but has more a “let’s look at everything and fix something new each lessons” approach.

[@dogloverjb6873]

I always learn someone new from Mike...great teacher. I wish I could afford lessons with him.

[@JeromeRufin]

Yeah Mike is great!!

[@bigglesthwaite]

Oh I’m sure he work something out for you…

[@luisalvarado9289]

Literally watching this after struggling on the range the other day and my first tee time in a year ! Perfect timing !

[@JeromeRufin]

I got you!!

[@TheRyanRanch]

That is a lot of information for a beginner, I always taught to keep weight on left side all the way thru impact, no wrist, shoulders closed on impact. This is awesome info, but to many things to digest especially for a beginner

[@korean4arch]

I'm starting this love this coach. He'll be one of the key reason for your success!

[@hammockmonk]

So refreshing to see a YT golfer that I can relate to. Great content! Thx.

[@JeromeRufin]

Intended to be the most relatable channel of all time!! Haha

[@ruatoomey9107]

Wow I’m loving the information Mike is giving out, it’s pure gold. Are all the videos labelled, as in 1, 2, 3 etc.

[@JeromeRufin]

You can go to the BINGE playlist on the channel and watch starting from episode 1 until current :)

[@jackjetpilot]

Pure solid gold!

[@Andy-ow6nx]

Huge amount of great info from Mike. Bit of a shame about the ball collector noise.

[@JeromeRufin]

Haha yeah I feel like those people always start cleaning the balls right when we get into the lesson lol

[@billhaag9931]

Plan surrounding when able for great lessons

[@kathyyoest4085]

my thought was - such a great instructor should be teaching at a nicer range. The setting looks like a hillbilly's back yard where he collects used cars and washing machines lol. I live in the South so ...

[@mbillmiller1]

Fantastic video ! Didn’t get the details on how to hit the lob. Is it simply the “normal” wedge shot with an open face ? Same ball position? Is club handle pointing at belt buckle ? Thanks !

[@JD-ir8cb]

what a great lesson

[@filprocter7318]

Keep it up, golf is good.. and I saw your birdie, CONGRATS

[@JeromeRufin]

Thanks!! Hopefully more birdies in the future

[@inakisaenz]

Great video! I learned a lot from this. Keep em’ coming

[@JeromeRufin]

Will do!!

[@NeboRust]

Another great instructional video. Keep it up mate.

[@JeromeRufin]

Thanks!! More to come

[@cruztalamantez9136]

Ignore the comments about the practice range you are on, what's beautiful is the information you are receiving. The beauty of a range or course is lost after a few bad holes or practice shots.

[@magikkris]

let's go. you can do this.

[@randymahony8157]

Jerome, you're really doing good.

[@Gumballa87]

It's like finding the Bernstein Room in a trailer park... really good content brought to you in the shittiest backyard range anybody has ever seen...

[@kathyyoest4085]

couldn't have said it better

[@grahammay8512]

Great video Jerome

[@JeromeRufin]

Thanks so much!

[@samuelchoisamchoi714]

For the Algo!

[@johnperkins9245]

Great idea to have the ball collection machine going at the same time ha ha. It was like going to the Ballet with a bulldozer on stage.

[@pjpredhomme7699]

Ummmm am I the only person that can see probably at least 50 other mats - most of which are not right next to the guy loading balls into the ball washer - memo to the director / producer - find a better location director

[@islanderdraws]

Gaining a lot from your videos Jerome. Thanks! 🙏

[@JeromeRufin]

I’m so happy to hear that! More to come :)

[@jonathansmith9705]

When would one twist like that vs. using the hips to get up on the right toe?

[@cdunne1620]

..eh are you getting too specific, try to copy the overall motion, the main advice is keep feet on ground, 50-50 pressure, set-up, and begin to stand up as you start to come down, don’t scoop. When you ask “when does one twist” you’re chopping the motion up into bits BUT it doesn’t operate like that at all. Your mind does this action as one fluid motion. Yes when you’re learning it you might ask when but all the advice you need is in this video, that mindset of picking every part of it apart imo doesn’t suit the fluidity needed, anyhow

[@jonathansmith9705]

@@cdunne1620 You don't get it. Mike described two specific types of pitch shots, and variations on the second one, i.e. "50:50 pressure," etc. The first one he demonstrated was a pitch shot where weight is distributed from the trailing or back leg to the leading leg (a right handed golfer ends up on his/her right toe. I asked Mike when one would use that motion instead. Simple stuff - one vs. the other.

[@stewartnewberry4419]

short game so important.

[@JeromeRufin]

Maybe the most important ? :)

[@area46241]

Gold nuggets!

[@chcbn1967]

This guy is a great teacher and how much are his lessons? The ball collector noise in unbearable and this range should be closed for repairs. If Mike is charging you lots of $$$, you should demand you go to a better range.

[@whenmullet2674]

Maybe, just maybe you could book a lesson when they aren't dumping balls. Just sayin'. The info here is great by the way.

[@gzman1]

i haven't tried drinking heavily yet

[@tobybarker6808]

great lesson, crap setting

[@billhaag9931]

No glove helped my driving alot

[@stratdoc]

Mike is truly a professor and coach. His suggestions are so spot on but coming at you a little to fast for you to execute on camera. Even though this is a city dump your getting laser cut advice and methods. So many beautiful courses near San Diego. This content really is too good for this backdrop. Can you talk mike into meeting you elsewhere?

[@dougbixel4715]

Great instructions, terrible audio. Get away from the ball machine.

[@steveperry1344]

good golf info but that is the worst driving range i've seen and that ball machine is a pain.

[@fergusfitzgerald977]

Great pity about the location - distractions visual and auditory ! Unintentional but a pity !

[@gzman1]

we need a tip jar so they can get a better background

[@OMG-2]

Tell me you were not ready to tie that ball guy to his tractor, send him out in the range and make him target practice, ok I'm kidding, but only a little. I'm surprised the voice in the video came out as well as it did, but it makes following the instruction crazy difficult.

[@bkt5398]

Great info but man he talks too much! Beginning golf and he spitting out 25 different options and scenarios to hear himself talk, annoying. Fundamentals basic and then build. But nonetheless good info.

[@jimbojohnson7360]

It can't be 'slightly wet, dead pregnant or solid'!!!

[@RobertBrownieX]

That felt like a mind numbing amount of information 😅

[@swardmusic]

Not a fan of the gripping down 😢 Way easier to just swing a smaller arc, or swing slower. It also screws up swing weight, low point etc

[@Ahuisnl]

Wow. How annoying those balls in the background. Could not stand it.

[@nicholas1460]

I'm not sure if this is a golf instruction video or a "S#%t my golf instructor says" video.

[@JeromeRufin]

Haha probably a combination of both. He has so many interesting and great sayings in all my lessons lol

[@filprocter7318]

I know, I'm gonna watch again and memorize a few " stop in a car hood"

[@UNTrumpet]

I don't want to say everything he said is crap, but especially on the lob/flop shots when the instructor hit the ball he 100% "scooped". Watch slow motion and you can see his wrists are straight at impact and he essentially slides the face under the ball... which is how you hit flop shots. You have to use wrist. That is why they're so hard to hit for non-professionals. Without a ton of practice using that much wrist is very inconsistent. Also, that bs he said about standing up? Watch when he swings, he literally goes closer to the ground with his upper body on the down swing and only comes up after he's made contact... again, how it's supposed to happen. He might be talking about feel vs real, but that is definitely not what's actually happening.

[@tjnaevans]

Wow...that's the rattiest range I've ever seen..... Good instruction though

[@robertgaston4230]

Thanks for the great videos but ,What's Mike's last name and does he have a channel???
