When to Use Each Golf Club - What Golf Club to Use For Each Shot

[@ThomasScott-wf5wg]

Matt said in an earlier video, “Try this for 10 rounds. Give me 10 rounds.” I typically score in the mid to upper 90’s. Today, 6 rounds into it, I scored an 83. Feelin’ like a baus.

[@Redrickson1]

Great job, Playa!

[@eDuB1980s]

That is baus, nice one playa

[@craigshewchuk9018]

Well yea man, I go take personal lessons but use these videos to help with course management and dropping score and the lessons to work on swing, consistently, and feel. Course management is part of it but I find working it out for myself with both helps me. Keep dripping score! It takes a few rounds after lessons and after incorporating the videos to improve for me too, its good to focus long term to not get upset

[@MonkeySaurusPants]

Same as me! Never seen so many pars on a card!

A big thanks to you Matt! Finally broke 100 off 6000yds today, 98. Driver left at home, 5 wood off the tee and breaking up holes to reach in three. Cheers Playa in Chief!

[@whitneymacdonald4396]

It's starting to sink in for me. I'm going to keep watching. Broke 90 (89) yesterday for the first time mostly by not being stupid and following some of Matt's ideas. It felt really good! Thanks.

[@GolfSidekick]

Imagine if you followed all my ideas. Maybe 69

[@Toaster-v1z]

Nice, what was the distance played?

[@hothamandfauri]

Great tips as always. Also I finally broke 100 for the second time on Monday. Scored a person best of 94. The biggest change was that I left my driver in the bag and was teeing off mainly with my 4 hybrid. I found the fairway so much more frequently. Not too mention when playing my second shots on par 4's and 5's, I used my 5 hybrid instead of my 3 wood. My shots went so much straighter

[@GolfSidekick]

This is the way playa. Smashed the break 100. You know i called it. You dont merely break it. You wreck it

[@TheDarwin1564]

Unbelievable I’ve been doing exactly what you’re saying just by following all of your previous advice and it’s led me to what you are saying on this video

[@johnny4rebel]

Matt, I have only broken 100 once on a short course a while back. I started this season off with a 114. Since following your advice I’ve had a nine hole round 8 over at a par 3 course and I shot a 106 the other day. I used toe down chipping and almost holed out twice and ended up chipping one in from 47 yards for a birdie! First time ever holing out! Just trying to be a playa like you

[@harrybray4956]

Just scored a personal best round today whilst muttering “GIOTG” and “Be Confidential” to myself … used 5-iron off the tee a few times despite the ribbing from my playing partners … thanks Matty Boom Boom

I've got those Cleveland wedges in sand and gap wedge. If I'm not in a weird lie, my favorite clubs to hit. It isn't good in beach or sandbox sand though, it just sinks in like a submarine diving. I might need to get different sand wedges for different courses because the sand is so different from course to course.

Found the fairway bunker twice recently. Tried the chin up recommendation and came out of there like a pro and got a few nice out, nice shot. Thanks Matty Boom Boom!!! BTW people, if you haven't purchased any of the shorts or shirts, what are you waiting on? Loving mine and I have several of each.

Just broke 100 (96) this morning! 2nd season playing did not hit a single ball whole last year. (Total 22 rounds 65% only 9 holes, and not a lot range time) 1 6iron tee shot ob miss hit. and 1 bad bounce ob long green pw. 3holes with 0p.(9,9,8) But 4 par and 2 amazing birdies after planting some birdie feathers. Never looked at the score card until my mate calculated on the way to our cars! 👍👌🏻

[@Roy19861]

Amazing how easy you make golf look😅. Starting using your toe down chipping and I trust my chipping more then my texas wedge now.

[@Penguin545]

Broke 100 off the 4,760 yard tees for the first time today ever- shot 98 total, 51 front/47 back with only a 3 wood or 6 iron as a tee club. Also holed a 43 yard chip for birdie on a par 4- I’m keeping that lucky ball as a souvenir 😁

I've seriously thinking about going with a mini driver, but then they are highly popular with a limited supply, which means pricey. Taylor Made only does them in limited runs. Smart if your main objective is to make money. Serious, good practical advice for all levels of players. And a fashion Icon.

[@GolfSidekick]

Just played 18 with it. I don’t know why i have a normal driver. Absolute baus of a club Get a second hand one

[@wdthompson1234]

Isn't a minidriver just a version of a 3 wood for people who mentally choke whenever they think they have a 3 wood in their hands? Minidriver. There's only one Minnie Driver I'm interested in. I have a driver (250 yards, 5 =210ishand 7 =195ish. I kinda know my distansays. I used to carry a 3 wood.

What is your percentage threshold for risk reward? On a 6 handicap what amount of reasonable risk would you accept before deciding against playing a shot?

[@GolfSidekick]

Can you do it 9 out of 10 times? In handicap golf, we don’t have risk for a reward. We have no risk, all reward.

[@Jonsnowcone]

I know this might be sacrilege, but I always putt out of bunkers with no lip as long as it's not plugged. Crazy reliable and always better than my best sand wedge.

[@oliver69cork46]

Fantastic video. Just one question,use a 64 wedge and hit it more reliably than a 56 or 60 degree opened-am i right to continue using it? Its a ht model and toe taps from 10 yards in are super. Thanks
