The 35 Smartest Golf Secrets to Scoring Better RIGHT Now

[@Rickenbacker954]

I’ve been watching your videos and taking your tutelage to the course. Play the lie not the yardage, avoid trouble, a bogey is not bad etc. I hit 89 my last two rounds. You are an amazing instructor.

[@GolfSidekick]

Boom. Next step 83

[@SuperIndomitus]

Best golf channel on youtube - no technical swing advice, no BS - just good sensible thinking.

[@GolfSidekick]

Exactly playa. Simple the best for the best

[@civilwarwasaninsidejob7405]

I've focused solely on course management these past couple weeks from binge watching your videos. No hero shots, and took my 3 wood and hybrid out of the bag. Had only broken 100 once in my life, and have now done it 4 times in a row. Appreciate the content playa and providing me the tools to love the game and be self taught 🤙

[@andrewtrujillo7608]

I highly appreciate that you don’t switch up your tips or message for each video, or chase “1 tip to fix everything” type videos. Every video drills in the consistency of great playas. Stoked every time a new video drops. Keep up the great content. Cheers.❤

Broke 100 the first time last weekend, all by following your course management tips. You da man. Sincere thanks.

[@JiKimbo]

Playa! 👍

[@golfhiker7231]

Thanks for all your content. I use your tips to guide me. Shot 89 other day. Using 5 iron off tee all day! Got frustrated losing balls with driver

[@gcoffey223]

Live it!! Irons keep the ball in play and that is a stroke saver in itself. Well done!!

[@derekallen5219]

Exactly as Matty says. Frustrated at losing balls off the tee and constantly droping and playing 3 I took my driver (And 60degree as well for that matter) out of my bag for a year and just focused on 6 iron and under. Practiced Driver only on the range. Started breaking 100 regularly using better strategies learned here. Slowly brought my driver back once I had a shot i could rely on with it. Have now broken 90 - 2 or 3 times this summer and there is still room for improvement. Thank you for bringing back the enjoyment.

[@craigstrickland861]

Mattie, love watching your practical, down-to-earth, instructional videos. Is there a reason you use black golf balls?

[@Redrickson1]

1:25 Speaking of chipping, I met a guy who used his 4 iron to get the hoes. Using it like a chipper or a lofted putter.

[@jpnovak923]

Good stuff really helping my game!

[@Snowman9K]

Early in your KZbin career, I recommended that you read the book Radical Golf. Now I can tell that you did it. Keep making the free throws.

[@GolfSidekick]

I did. I bought it while in the UK. I love the way that guy writes

[@ctrlrsf]

[@dustinreed8161]

[@whitneymacdonald4396]

[@edwinrodriguez2395]

Thanks for all the great advice Matty. My game has improved dramatically using your tips. Also videos are so entertaining! Keep up the great work.

[@pault5074]

best golf creator out there instantly changed game playing for position instead of score

[@DoubleBogeyBaker]

Do you have any tips to make sure I am the correct distance away from the ball when I step up and address the ball?

[@Master...deBater]

Take a practice swing swiping the grass. Notice the position of the mark in the grass...in relation to your feet. If it felt good, place the ball position just before the beginning of where the mark would be in your stance. Repeat the feel of that swing.

[@stuartbeattie8781]

Been watching your videos for a few weeks now,and have managed to knock a mighty 6 shots off my score following your advice. You are the Bauws✌️

[@GolfSidekick]

Nice playa keep knocking it boiii

[@jeremybevis6441]

I loved the way your head dropped when you just missed your par putt with your 6 iron. I used to walk my dog around the course when I lived abroad just using an 8 iron. Opening the face out of bunkers and closing the face to get more distance. A lot of fun and gets you thinking differently. Great videos.

[@TrekRoadbiker]

Excellent video sir. I watched all of it.

[@Groovethumper69]

I love coming to the comments and hearing the whooshing sounds as The Baus’s linguistic gymnastics baffle those without the rhetorical acumen to recognize the lighthearted word play that is part and parcel to The Way of the Playa. 😂

[@galil1612]

Playa! I broke 90 for the 1st time (87) been playing a year and a half. Thank u sir. I no longer go for the hero shot and top my 3 wood 40 yards. Just lay up to my confidentiality distances (120-150) with my Tokomo 301cb irons and boom on the green and 2 putt 😎. Feels good man

[@GolfSidekick]

Boom boom boom i want you in my room

[@nicholasbartonlaw341]

That is one beautiful golf course you are playing.

[@anthonysukto]

I think I'm at the point of needing to get a lesson or two...or three or four playa. My biggest needs IMO.. 1. Driver - Striking - Consistency 2. Pitching the 80-50 yard shots 3. Course Management and Mental Game Just shot 84 (+14) today. Still looking to break 80 for the first time. Thank you for your awesome videos! You've helped me with keeping things simple within my swing and I can't wait to come back to tell you I broke 80 someday!

[@GolfSidekick]

Yes to get into the 70s, i would suggest getting that driver to be playable so you can use it on around 5-8 holes. Pitching 50-80 will improve your driving and Vice versa. The pro will show you fundamentals of a pitch shot which will transfer to the entire swing. You’re on the right track. But have patience

[@handicapedgolfer1912]

Shot 78 last week playing a baby draw off nearly every shot ,now I don’t know how to hit a draw and every ball this week has sliced. Even the driver is starting to slice which has never happened . Whata game ,whata playa .Keep up the good content broski❤

[@GolfSidekick]

I’ll release a video soon about shot shaping. It’s so Easy and You can use it to fix your flight

[@mister.wizard]

Matty boom boom, I love your vids as always. One thing I notice is how well you seem to always make good contact with the ball. Maybe you can do a vid on how we can get as consistent as you hitting the ball?

[@eoinm5758]

Shot 41 points of 18 handicap today with a triple on the card 4 bogeys to start birdie on par 3 and that kicked me on pared the next 4 then the dreaded 7 1 par after and bogeyed my way in from there then need to work on the confidentially the games there just need to keep the head

[@marclafleur1096]

Matt I have the problem where I hit a great shot and then follow it up with a terrible shot..... I have a hard time stacking good shots, any advice? It seems to have come out of nowhere 🤷‍♂️

[@GolfSidekick]

Change your wording. I hit great shots. You are finding ways to live up to the image you create of yourself in your mind. Your ego will continue to do that. Remove the idea of hitting a bad shot and when you do hit one, accept that everyone does and it’s part of the game. Perfection is impossible

[@Master...deBater]

Make sure to do the same preparation for each shot regardless of the outcome of the last shot. Remember to reset after each shot...thinking only of the current shot. Forget the past...avoid thinking about future shots. Clear your mind of unnecessary garbage. If you have to correct a swing issue with a swing thought...do it before you step up to the ball. Once you've stepped up to the ball...picture the shot successfully executed several times...then hit it!

Started the season as a 19 HCP, I’m down to 15 and my last two rounds have been 80 & 82 the way of the playa is real deal boyfriends. Driver went awry yesterday so the 5 wood was moneyski. Simply put, getting the ball in play to my free throw distance, hitting 60% Green in regulation close it out with aspirations of a 2 putt and you’ll see your score drop faster than a fat chick skating on thin ice
