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

My local courses have a lot of elevated greens, which I don't commonly hit. Is there a recommendation from the golf folk for a chip with 5 yards of rough (with 4 foot of elevation increase) and 20 yards of green?

[@Roberto-bd9fq]

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.

You forgot to mention the possibility of using your hybrid on the green. I often use my 20 degree hybrid to climb sever slopes. it's much easier than a putter some times, even for some putts from off the green. Great advices though ....

I played today full on confidentiality. Only hit driver twice and stayed out of trouble. 3 putt 3x otherwise round would have been full on confi🎉

[@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

[@CptRumcan]

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.

[@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

If it works and saves you strokes then you must keep such a tool.

I'm sure there's a logical answer, but how do we reconcile the "stay low for more accuracy" rule with the "higher loft equals less dispersion" rule.

Low loft low to ground because more dispersion. High loft higher because less dispersion built in.
