This guy's got the short game of a pro and the tee game of my drunk uncle

[@ryankaiser35]

This is my life

[@ethansura]

@@ryankaiser35 For me, it’s the opposite thing.

[@reddymi]

That is both very true and very funny.

[@thetinyhomestead6144]

This dude is really really consistent. His potential is definitely scratch golf. For sure. Short game amazing.

[@loganstringfield5872]

Honestly it's super refreshing to see someone struggle with the same things I do. Every golf youtuber looks amazing in 90% of their videos. Thanks for bringing someone on whose a little more relatable to players like myself.

[@amaramin]

Definitely would listen to a podcast, and there's nothing even close to your style available at the moment!

[@attiladarvassy2239]

I agree!

[@TheOkstate]

100% agree

[@loggedon]

Yes a podcast would be amazing to listen to while I'm on the range or putting green 🙌🏼

[@bigstew69]

100% you should have a podcast. Watching you break 90 series has worked for me. Was always shooting 90-100 and since watching my last 5 rounds have all be less than 90 with another 86 today. Thank you for all the hard work you put in with the videos. If you ever come to the UK would love to have a round with you ;)

[@Ropinify]

Love when we get to see you play with other less experienced golfer, he play just like us in the comment section

[@rlok]

A podcast with your blend of fun, golf and life lessons would be wonderful--as long as it wouldn't impact the videos. Your channel is my favourite by a mile, and it's really helping me get a handle on my demons, both on and off the course. Heartfelt thank you, playa.

[@GrahamWinship]

Recently got back into golf. Once shot a 89 as a teen. I’m 26 now. My 4 rounds since getting back into golf have been a 93, 91, 101, and a 83 today!! Scores all over the place but absolutely insane round on a tough course. Your mental strategies really helped. Only Pars and Bogeys on my round today

[@ajwells007]

Goodness, Julian shows so many signs of an excellent player. Congrats, Julian! Again, he serves as a reminder and an inspiration to us more experienced playas that let ego guide us instead of the science of the WOTP (Way of the Playa).

[@SevroAuBarca04]

GolfSidekick! This is my 2nd year of golfing now and I’ve been watching you since the beginning and had not been able to break 50/100! Until today! I’ve felt really good the past couple times out, scoring 53 through 9 and then the past several days I’ve been hitting the range, learning to chip and putt like a baus. Bing watching your how to break 90 videos without going over 150 yards, and your chipping/putting vids. Today I finally did it, and I scored 41 through 9! Slashed the 100 barrier and broke the 90! I played only my 4 most confident clubs, 6 & 8 iron, Sand wedge, and putter. Played backwards from the hole and focused on only playing shots im 100% committed to. I finally took the time necessary to practice and evaluate my mental approach to the game and I did it! Can’t thank you enough for teaching me and everyone else on here the way of the PLAYA!

[@schwaggg17]

This was my favourite episode... I felt like I could empathize with all his problems lol.

[@waltoyen5414]

Taking your approach of stress free has transformed me from an 88 avg to now averaging 79-83

[@GolfSidekick]

Nice 5-6 handicap golfer

[@use1kcf]

His chipping and putting bely his inexperience. He chips and putts much better than most experienced golfers - amazing.

[@BIGSEXY929]

Have been playing since i was 20 (i am 25 now) but never played more than once a month until i started working at Reynolds Lake Oconee. I found this channel randomly at work one day back in January i had never even broken 100 until this past April (3 months after watching these videos) i just broke 90 two days ago and quite honestly i give a lot of credit to this page. Golf is so much more fun when you can actually sorta hit the ball where you want to. Thanks, and keep up with the great videos!

[@aussienads]

Hey playa…I would tune into to the podcast 💪🏻

[@CTURN93]

You should definitely have a podcast. That’s one of the first things I searched for when I found this channel.

[@100Errol]

There aren't enough podcasts in the world, we need more.

[@GolfSidekick]

Can you provide data on that lol

[@100Errol]

@@GolfSidekick 🤣

[@varsitybeerpong]

Thank you for these videos! These videos combined with lessons (and lots of practice) helped me finally break 90 yesterday (87) ! More importantly, I am consistently shooting in the low 90s instead of the high 90s. Inside 100 yards is the key! Solid wedge game and putting = low scores.

[@Econnolly82]

no one better at the head game aspect of golf...id listen on every drive to the course to get the right mindset

[@steveminla]

It's nice to see you help this guy out and give him encouragement. And enough to see his confidence come through in his play and do well. Also, God bless those caddies wearing masks in that heat!!! They seem super sweet.

[@Jaketm23]

I think this is the first video of yours I watched, and I enjoyed it a lot. I am not knocking Julian in any way, but I am definitely more consistent in ball striking than he is, and have never broken 90. This video definitely shows I need to think a lot more before each shot, and play a lot smarter, as it definitely costs me strokes.

[@jackkinoff6943]

Go watch a few of Matt's videos on the Breaking 80 or Breaking 90 When he gets the whiteboard out the Wisdom will blow your mind

[@jefftaylor1186]

Shot 86 yesterday with a 47 on the front. Channeled my inner-playa for that 39 on the back

[@jeffhaman9010]

Half way through the 4th hole, Julian has lost two pieces of clothing. I'm a bit worried to watch this to the end.

[@brandons.7056]

New drill, strip golf. Everytime you make double or worse you gotta lose a piece of clothes

[@xavieroller4267]

French guy. If we don't end up naked or eating cheese, something is wrong with what we're doing !

[@angelpineda3709]

I am Julian. Julian is me. Athletic swing, bad ball striking, soft hands I’ve never related to a video more in my life 😂

[@greatdane2609]

This guy plays like me. Not a diss, just a true statement. Love this type of video!

[@MinciHH]

I really like the way you teach and actually focusing on strategy and course management. My most precious recent finding! ☺️👍🏻

[@stagger58]

I've been watching your channel for a year. Was looking for something to consistently break 90 besides aiming for 5 or better on every hole. By far the best YT Golf Psychology Channel available and I recommend you to anyone looking to get better. I've never had better course management and I've been playing for nearly 20 years. There's something for everyone here. Keep up the good work.

[@shyamnayak]

I broke 90 yesterday!!! It felt so good to play decent!!!!

[@fataltoker8561]

Love the idea of a podcast. I play golf, I practice golf, I watch golf. All that’s left is to listen to golf

[@TheGolfHackr]

Start a podcast Playa. I'll even be your first guest

[@bluesunproductions9079]

I saw previous video about aiming small. Picking small object to target. Think small! You mention it again here. I had never heard of that before and honestly that is some of the best advice I have been given in long time. I don’t even see the hazards when I swing now. Just focusing on my small target. Another great video

[@dpardo74]

Shot my best round of the the year on a championship couse I have never played before. I shot a 93. I previously struggled to break 100 for the last 6 months to a yr because of covid-19 lockdown and lack of practice on my long game. Then I go and get my 4 hybrid out and engage beast mode. Had I not knocked 2 balls Oscar Bravo and got an lie beside a tree trunk that gave me no way out I could've SMASHED 90! The month before my golfing trip, all I watched was Golf Sidekick Breaking 100 and Breaking 90 videos. I also asked myself What is the dumb shot here? What is the better shot? And even more important, my love for the game is back! Who likes to shoot 99 or 109 when you know you should be scoring 90 and less.

[@raymondjames6161]

I’m a simple man. When I see a Golf Sidekick Breaking 90 video I click. Waddaplaya!

[@PsychoicHawkGaming]

Dude. I work at 3am most days. Of course you should have a podcast. Need something to listen to to keep me grounded

[@BaldyFella]

This is mint. An object lesson in minimising mistakes and working with what you bring to the course on the day. Excellent vlog.

[@macaronicheese369]

one of your best videos, love to see someone smash their personal best score!

[@jmacmorran]

Baus Matt, thank you for this delicious video of inspiration. I play off a -4 handicap but nothing gets me more excited than seeing high handicappers get that "aha!" look on their face. Pure excitement, pure joy. Waddalyfe!

[@arayner87]

Boyfriend I have been watching your channels for years and I still love the tuba you play on duffs. It happens to us all and now I hear the tuba when I hit a duff. Makes me laugh and relax after a bad shot. Thanks again for the great content!

[@lexjhedereneting2424]

Absolutely should have a podcast on spotify or wherever

[@dads2006gt]

Wish you were in 🇺🇸. Michigan to be exact, you are a special kind of teacher that anyone can not only learn the physical side from but can make huge gains in the mental side. Thank you for all the lessons from far away.

[@mathewthornton4030]

Honestly my favourite type of videos, they've help me so much and hear you saying "whadda shot!" When im on the course

[@xkheldar]

Yes! Would listen to your podcast every week!

[@robertwood8700]

Honestly, while I'm sure your podcast would be great. I can't help but think that this is basically your version of a podcast (I know, I know, it has video). But like most podcasts, I listen/watch your channel to learn new things and because it's relaxing. In your case, everything you teach is greatly benefited by an accompanying visual aid (you or a guest playing shots with tracers around a course). That being said, what the hell do I know? If you've got a great idea for a podcast, ive got nothing but faith that you'll nail it. Its just hard for me because this medium suits your and your philosophy so perfectly. Keep it up. This channel, moreso than any others ive watched, actually feels like it can easily be translated to a live round. Whereas, most other golf-teaching-lesson oriented channels feel convoluted, as if their lessons are lost in translation, and whatever you do learn can only ever be applied to range for gestation. Cheers from a big fan and believer, Bob

[@lckimler]

Your videos have truly helped the mental side of my game over the past few months. I've managed to keep scores manageable even when I'm not striking the ball well. Those days used to be 100+ but I broke 90 for the first time in 3 years on a day when I hit embarrassingly bad tee shots on at least 6 holes.

[@andrewpeake1712]

Yes. Your podcasts will be very helpful. Especially driving in traffic to the golf course. Firstly I enjoy your emphasis on playing the course to our game. Something I never do cos I want to get birdie every single hole!🤦‍♂️ We need reminding.

[@alexanderborjesson1968]

Would definatly listen to that podcast!

[@eliaswiberg9498]

I broke 90 for the first time yesterday! I´d like to say that it was all me, but your vids has helped a lot, thank you for that.

[@joebrown2092]

You're the best man. Just shot 86 today. First time breaking 90. Simply by using your method. Only had 1 birdie but only had one triple and a couple doubles

[@norms4831]

Matt, you are hero. Thanks boyfriend, you have changed my game.

[@mitchellfolbe8729]

Great course management using his strengths and weaknesses to his advantage. A fine lesson to be learned.

[@alaw11]

Matt, yes you need a podcast now! The Waddaplaya Podcast?

[@johnnykilo4967]

THE GLIMPSE is an important concept within the Way of the Playa. Love this and I gotta keep this in mind. I’ve yet to break 90. I always have 2 or 3 terrible holes that crush my score but I have quite a few amazing ones.

[@Backhand_Drew]

Podcast for sure, such an easier way to get content out to us fans without the lengthy editing.

[@zackennedy]

Great content, Matt, thank you. And well done, Julian!

[@vaypor79]

Matt! Please do a podcast. I find your accent incredibly memorable and your pearls of wisdom just stick. Honestly, I hear your voice (and tuba) constantly in my head throughout a round. Get cracking playa.

[@douglasjohnson367]

I love when you caddies yell “FORE!!!!!”

[@Fplbros]

Wadda Podcast!! Get it going please! I can pretty much repeat you break 90 videos word for word 😂 a podcast would be a great shout! Wadda genius

[@gavinlane9251]

Yes to the podcast! “How to play like a Baus”

[@jeffsuess377]

"you don't suck. your brain sucks" I feel very called out by this. ;-) A great truth of the game!

[@Weshopwizard]

This is eerily familiar. Just started playing again after a 2+ year break and was playing terribly and was not getting the mojo back. Watched a few of your vids about course management and went out with a plan. Shot an 87 in very windy conditions with 2 quadruple bogeys, a triple bogey and a 3 putt. Props to Julian.

[@anfanee9398]

Those comments at the end are so true Matt, i shot my PB (over 9) a couple of weeks ago following WOTP. Hole 2 and 3 added +7 to my score and i felt like i had a bad day in the office, though i was trying to forget what had happened and focused on what was next. I didn't even notice that i either Par or Birdied the remaining 6 holes to finish at +6 over 9.

[@tommydiskin8877]

Broski. Just broke 90 last week. Thank you! Excited to ball out with you when you come to good ole US of A!

[@iainmorgan8013]

Have to make a podcast playa "No birdie! No tip" always got spare time for words of wisdom from the Playa-in-chief

[@jfuentss]

This is a real mid- high handicap. Not that other guy that was hitting FIR & GIR left and right.

[@mikemurray2920]

I think you've got a great perspective of golf and I'd absolutely listen to a podcast with you just chatting about golf

[@tonyessig4144]

Do the podcast! I watch your videos the night before each round. I hear you in my head as I break my monkey habits and become a Playa! Dropped from 97 to 90 watching you, looking to break it tomorrow!

[@tonyessig4144]

Didnt break it last week, shot 91...today though 87 baby!!

[@Shaxra59]

I need more of you in my life, please bring us Playas a podcast

[@johnbosco9493]

Great to watch Matt..

[@elyjahdryden6063]

You definitely should have a podcast. I often listen to you while driving to the golf course or even when I'm settling down for the night, maybe the podcast is where you BS with your fan base too??

[@alexdavis3641]

You should start a podcast for sure, and call it "Get It On The Green". The platform could be you doing what you do and having Playas come on (whether live or by video) and talk about golf/strategies for high handicappers. Obviously have the guest appearances by Teaski, Gen and others from throughout the channel's past. Would be a blast!!

[@braidenrahn2534]

i have no broken my pb thanks to you!!! i shot a 76 of the tips at my local track so pumped!

[@donkee9]

I took lessons for about a year. Scores dropped at first then struggled a lot. I’m done with the lessons they’ve helped a lot I have a easier swing that gets a lot more distance. Started 150-155 ish with my 7i now it’s 180-185. After just playing and not thinking about my swing thoughts from lessons. The scores have came back down but kept my better swing.

[@Johanes7160]

Would absolutely listen to a podcast. You have a great way of explaining golf concepts!

[@skibeast113]

Great video, as always! Can't wait til you come to the states so we can break 80 together! About the podcast, start it if it makes you happy playa!

[@shaneWARs1]

Man I love these videos when I'm in a slump I watch these helps a ton . My problem is shaking 2 or 3 off specific holes lol I have no idea why they get in my head it's the one thing that stopping me from breaking 90 every time

[@sillybilly00444]

Your stuff is really helping me. I'm finally getting it. Thank you boyfriend! Yes, a podcast is called for.

[@marcpage7387]

Yeah, I would enjoy a playa podcast. There's no hiding behind visuals and video editing - and you've got a unique and perfect voice to listen to. Like lyrical butter. Plus, I'd love to hear more of the music you sample in your videos - so funky.

[@mikesdailygaming]

"Pull Fade" is the most elegant way to say "Banana Slice" lolol

[@Backhand_Drew]

I feel like my swing is better than what I am seeing on the screen but my score is higher by several strokes. This epiphany I just had is my golf swing is not my problem, it is my ego and bad decisions that cost me far too many strokes during a round. I will go out with your caddy mindset and let's see progress! Thank you brother!

[@GolfSidekick]

@@Backhand_Drew LOL there are many people who take a VERY long time to come to the enlightenment. You'll be a better golfer quick

[@coreyallshouse7633]

Putt on 13...I actually threw my arms up in victory. Waddaputt! Congrats Julian. PIC (Playa in Chief), I don't listen to podcasts often but would consider yours if you speak in dulcet tones.

[@j_onti23]

Love these videos

[@colewagner3435]

A podcast would be fantastic. Being able to listen to your insights whilst practicing or to visualize what you’re teaching would be quite helpful. You give a lot of advice that helps people on and off the golf course!

A podcast from the Baus man himself would be appreciated by not just me, but everyone else on this same grind. Do it!

[@mouradtossounian5040]

Great video. As always. Love you

Shot a 95 today in 25mph winds and constant rain. My previous best before discovering your channel was 98....in perfect conditions. Im already looking forward to my next round Thank you! #WayOfDaPlaya

[@limbojungleproductions9070]

I hear your voice in my sleep so being able to tune in whilst at work even better! Podcast for the playas! Baus man!

[@fredericniang4532]

Hey Playa... just right a book. It will be just even more fun to read. Describe and talk about the 110 golfer to the 80 golfer. Julian being just the guy most of us are: can make great shots, but duffs and thins once in a while and a short game that just needs practicing.

[@futureddshanley]

[@ianbutch1]

Great round - Playing with better players definitely helps IMO as long as it is still fun 😁

[@eburney68]

First of all, I'm hella late to this episode, so my apologies ... Second, I've loved your content going back to the early days of it, and I especially love videos like this with relative newbies like Julian, Vlad and BDog. So entertaining and educational. I love their attitudes and how they absorb the Baus wisdom like a sponge ... Third, hell yes you should have a podcast! Although your content is total eye candy, just hearing you talk golf alone or with guests would be incredible. Love, Eric (not your coach). Keep up the great work, @golfsidekick

[@scramblingtom]

I would love to listen to a podcast from you selfishly because your teaching has brought my handicap down from a 10 to 3. Also you have a great voice and I'm sure good guest possibilities.

[@matthewrmusarra]

YES please have a podcast, and please come to Cleveland, Ohio so we can play together :) I must summon the way of the playa!
