FATvsFIT - Part 2 - Match Play vs Shawn - The Back 9

[@glendaakers4]

John- enjoy your videos. I'm 69, and have played or over 40 years. Appreciate your personality (and the fact that you don't curse on camera). Just a word on putting, something that has helped me immensely.If you will go back and notice Shawn's (Sean's?) left elbow, it is bent more than his right, and is not touching his body. Keep the bend throughout the stroke. This allows you to get your left side out of your way, and allows the right hand to gauge and guide the shot. Works for me, (and Shawn!). PS this is under my wife's name. I'm Bob. Blessings!

[@geovan6159]

John, cannot stop watching...love it, length of time on video's good - you're down to earth and fun to watch, thanks for making them.

[@jeffbean779]

Been waiting for this all week!!

[@gilforin]

Jeff Bean me too, please John more content

[@marq022]

I can honestly say I’ve learned more about my own skills from watching your videos. For you, I recommend building your endurance. When u get tired, I notice you swing more “out-to-in” and with the putting, commit to the shot. You usually pick a great line but the follow through is what’s killing you. Great videos bro!!!!

[@joe03110]

John, your videos are so entertaining. The content has gotten better with each one. The shot tracer is an incredible touch also. Needless to say I need more videos!!! I’ll be waiting lol. Good luck bud

[@ronlevitt8241]

So enjoyable. I can watch/listen to you all day.

[@JCMediaPodcasting]

Golf challenge videos are always a lot of fun to watch! I look forward to each video!

[@SeanZangs807]

I actually enjoy watching this guy it’s like my therapy for the day🤣

[@tyler1394ify]

I love your videos man. The everyday golfer can relate with how you play so for alot of us its like were watching ourselves golf. Keep up the videos i love them

[@theweekendhack]

Hell ya dude. Was waiting for part two. Nice tracker and general production on these versus matches

[@joelbenseñor1993]

Enjoyed the video buddy. Thank you very much. Keep playing and having fun. Looking forward next video

[@travassize]

Very cool of your niece to film for you! She does a good job. Love the vids man keep it up!

[@tylerheberer1360]

Quality of these videos keep getting better! Keep em coming!

[@b3u3g3g3y]

Really enjoying your videos!

[@psyborg06]

Indeed fat guy needs to get his fat ass on the course more often!

[@c26ra70]

Awesome to see how much you’ve grown...... been here since the first episode

[@MyNameIsJeff9074]

Enjoying your videos, John. Keep up the good work.

[@tbird4evr]

Great to see another episode of “The Fat Guy Golf.” Don’t be so hard on yourself John. One shot at a time!🙂 ~Tim~

[@patrickellman884]

I check every day for the new vids keep it up John!

[@fastloader456]

Do another! I'm super new to golf and this is pretty cool to watch.

[@jeljosh03]

i have to say i laughed on that last putt.

[@seanfuller9017]

Love the videos. Keep workingand get that short game going. A good short game can make up for a lot of mistakes!

[@taylorlloyd]

Great vids John, good to see some realistic playing! Love from the UK

[@mikhailnekrasov8457]

Nice gladiator film poster, and great video!

[@jimmyjack4872]

I speak for myself and what I see that your doing right is the hole by hole account of your game. You keep it short and sweet . It’s fun to watch and it’s crazy the anticipation I feel as you hit the shot hoping it turns out a good one ... if you ever want to come to Dallas Fort Worth ... Golf is on me

[@aodanfeeney6423]

Your short game is great, keep it up 👍

[@celtic348]

great quick videos. keep at em guys

[@acenace24]

Great to see another upload. I was all pumped to play after the last one so I went out and shot a 45 in 9 holes. Really wish I could've played the back to try for a 90. Don't feel bad about a bad round though, I think I shot in the high 50's the first several rounds (in 9 holes) I played this year and I've been playing for 13 years. Trust me, I know the feeling when my buddy can shoot a 92 with half the amount of experience and I'm getting killed shooting a 101.

[@BigKow]

I love your videos. Keep grinding!

[@petescholl1326]

Love your videos man, great work!

[@AZPB12]

Yes! John is back! Day made!!

[@holeinone24channel41]

I love Seven Hills! Great vids!

[@jasonx4590]

I can’t wait till the next video

[@HiLandR]

I just picked up a Ping ChipR and it really helped me get to the hole easier. You might consider picking one up.

[@Meb6223]

Love these videos.

[@ryanfergen6612]

I enjoy watching your videos so much that I'm commenting on a video for the first time ever. Normally I would just stop watching a channel when something happens that I don't like but these videos and your journey are fun to watch. I'm only saying this to help you because it will dramatically change your game and it has nothing to do with the golf swing or technique. Be mindful of your self talk. I'm very close to not watching your videos anymore because you beat yourself up too much. Especially about your short game. Majority of what your commentating is negative and you will become a better golfer with a more positive and growth mindset. Thanks for listening.

[@meatysmc]

Hole 16 was no slice brother! That was a beautiful fade!

[@agburl275]

Great video.

[@daiyinnaicker8810]

You are amazing John

[@jimbo2849]

Some nice golf 🏌️‍♂️

[@bryandoyle3092]

Hey love watching the videos..keep em Coming

[@davidm5963]

I just found your channel and I'm loving it! I actually live in NE Ohio and based off your videos it seems you do too. I just started playing so I'm wondering what are some of your favorite courses in the area?

[@MichaelSmith-qw6vn]

Tough round! We all have those. Nothing planned yet? I look forward to whatever you have coming up. What are you planning for the winter?

[@MichaelSmith-qw6vn]

Very cool. I'll look forward to the videos!

[@randymelendez7803]

Looks like you all had a great time, the real secret to golf is, have fun.....

[@AdamFerrari64]

I’ve been practicing out of the bunker and I’m really liking my technique

[@connorkeenan2359]

peep the xbox in the background... mad respect bro

[@JayColucci1]

Hey John! Great video man. I'm new to playing serious golf, I started playing in May 2018 and I am obsessed with the sport now. I love it. I go out every weekend, and I'm from the Cleveland area too. Added you on The Grint, I would love to play a round with you.

[@bdubs1467]

I feel like if you would just get more consistent with your short game you could be very good. Oh and you gotta keep your composure my guy. Love your vids. Keep up the good work man.

[@bever3353]

Hi John... I really enjoy your videos. You’re striking the ball really well ... have improved heaps over the journey. I think you struggle with the putting ‘cos your gut gets in the way ... can you alter your putting stance to free the stroke up a bit ?

[@kestenkele962]

1 way you can be much better, is if you use different clubs, you always use driver for the par 5 and 4s. Try using long irons or clubs you are good at using like 3 wood or hybrid and you can stop the hooks or slices.

[@SteveMatic]

"I wish I was better at golf" haha. If I got a buck for everytime I said that aswell. You've improved massively tho. Just keep going.

[@e.lim0467]

maybe you should go to your local golf store and get custom fit for some irons that might help

[@carolynwilbur1627]

Really felt all those blades over the green. Lol

[@PacForeTravel]

Hey John 2 questions, what did you use for the ball tracker and the yardage counter? And how did you make your score text box? Great videos my man!! Trying to start a golf vlog of my own! Keep up the good work!

[@harrisfountain7361]

How were you getting the shot tracer and distance?

[@patrickc6029]

Besides playing, do you do any drills on the range? Also, a putting arc is pretty good for improving your stroke, it helped me a lot. Love the vids

[@ashfordtyler8181]

What was the putter that u were using that u said u replaced?

[@jimmywethington2047]

Tip that helped me, if you are 200+ yards out, break it down to 2 shorter shots. For instance, i hit an 8 iron about 120-130. If I'm 250 out, I'll hit two 8 irons into the green. That way it takes those 50-60 yard shots out of play. I'm hitting out of the fairway more often too.

[@GooseDuck-ft4ko]

If I'm 250 out I hit a 4 hybrid into the woods and 5% of the time on the green.

[@nicholasgreen2864]

Solid videos! Subscribed!

[@chrisevy4814]

Thanks big John love your videos

[@matthewduteau6097]

which shot tracer app is that?

[@gtfan998]

Mad respect man fat and owning it good content too man something different gonna go check out some of your other vids

[@peytonsheaves1671]

whered u play in wv i live there

[@nueat6]

I'm not gonna lie that putt at 8:35 was funny.

[@Rootwally]

Just out of curiosity where are you from and what course do you mostly play?

[@msj2]

I hear that shot tracer app works well when you have something to steady the camera?

[@GweebarraRover]

You guys are pretty lucky, Ive been learning on my local links course (In Ireland) & your dropping a shot every time if you fluff your Tee shot. Its proper rough!

[@PonoPride]

did you get fitted for your size or work on your swing mechanics first?

[@tbuck07]

Lol you wish you were better? I have yet to break 113! Keep it up man!

[@TheStuntmanTyson]

i would play golf with this guy any day!

[@levitateme]

Nice swing! Subbed

[@trevormueller2484]

What program do you use for the shot tracer and distance tracker?

[@noroy2]

Greetings from Mexico, when are you available to play? I fly out to ya.

[@andrewpeterson6433]

Hey John, what shot tracker are you using in the video? Awesome work man, keep it up!

[@stephensimon1382]

Great channel

[@jelle-d1m]

nice post John !!

[@thebackyardgolfer7010]

your short game is looking pretty good, what's your handicap?

[@meatysmc]

What app are you using to trace the shot?

[@tgreetsy1201]

TFGG is the golf vlog 🐐. Rick shiels and you need to do a vlog together.

[@golfinginspace]

I love your videos John! You've inspired me-- I just posted my first golf course vlog. Let's Tee it Up!

[@bennymiller6807]

If you come to west virginia again, id love to play a round with ya! Havent been out all year, itd be a really fun match.

[@precept749]

Also notice how Shawn tends to accelerate about midway in his forward swing? That would really help your consistency on your shots man. A good drill is focus on your right elbow on the range and "drop it into the slot." So you'll take your elbow once your at the top of your back swing and drop it towards your right pocket before you begin your acceleration which should occur through your hips. Best of luck man and I hope this helps!

[@connor1990soccer]

I would suggest going to the range more. It’s hard to get better during a round. Love the vids keep it up.

[@connor1990soccer]

John Baker go more lol

[@Statatistafunk]

New to your channel. As a big buy myself, I’ve learned from just watching your videos, that I’m just making excuses for my horrible driving. Also, what do you use for the tracer? Thanks!

[@jmc224]

Man. I would love to play with you brother. I feel like we both play similar. If you are ever in Dallas, lets go out!

[@Savocaatx]

🐐

[@woodypilgrim242]

Hello mr. John I'm proud of you for what you doing like you I am a big guy I have trouble with my swing and I pull a lot of shots so don't think this is a bad thing but you need to watch your shot Counting you've made a few mistakes I really enjoy your videos but missing a stroke or two here and there doesn't help our game any and I don't think it was intentional congratulations on your game and keep up the good work sir I'll keep stroking it with you

[@myleswilson1402]

This is what golf is about

[@colm1887]

Do you play xbox? I noticed it in the background of intro

[@bmac2444]

Love the videos, have to be more consistent though

[@rickyjacobo5091]

One big guy to another let me know when and I'll help you beat this guy for sure! Lol keep it up fella!

[@russellhenthorn9256]

Hi john pick something out about 4 or 5 inches in front of you up the middle of the faiway.it should improve your accuricy.

[@yourmanpost7983]

sometimes with that 3-wood you don’t finish your swing, like you come through and stop at your waist

[@chadgrieser6328]

Shawn cuts the corner, but we are going to forget about Shawn! Haha

[@theswedishgolferchannel1186]

It happens to me all the time in matchplay, the opponent that always shoot in the high 80’s all of a sudden break 80 against me!

[@fishinfreak6764]

John I think I saw u at oglebay but u teed off by the time I could catch u and say anything

[@fishinfreak6764]

I just finished watching the video and it was u for sure😂😂

[@wideeyedsurfer9728]

Don't worry about it you still way better than me bro

[@onelanebridge_]

You can put your camera on a grip stick...🎁🎁🎁🎁

[@notliam7279]

You should get a tripod. And just set it in the cart and every shot just put it behind you it would make it so much better

[@michealhudson4515]

Some days you just don't have it. But that's why we play

[@hughhoney5930]

when you lose a ball in the water you dont have to drop so close to the hazard, you can drop it from anywhere in line between where you hit it and to the last place it exited play
