Holy Grail of Course Management in Golf

[@PandasKitchen]

I finally broke 90 using Matty’s 169% confidentiality strategy. Bought a 7W just because the playa said so and told the driver to go away for a bit. Used toe down chipping and got the hoes because I kept it low. All my friends I play with can’t compute because I’m not blasting driver off the tee and I’m only 10 months in on golfing and I’m keeping up with them. Thanks for all the sage advice playa!!

[@GolfSidekick]

Easy game playa

[@groundcontrol9422]

7 wood is the bomb .... ! ... 💣

[@MichaelSisley-fw3xr]

I don't have a driver. I play 3W, 5W, 7W, 9W, and 11W. They are super easy to hit. I dropped 3 from my 16 handicap.

[@escos0410]

Iv started playing with 3 members from the club im at that are 4,2 plus 1 handicap Iv dropped 7 shots and that’s just by watching how they attack and play holes 17 handicap and now down to 10 😊

[@drewjames9167]

This is the way, boyfriend.

13:21 I'm starting to think Matty's power comes not from his method and mindset but from his team of orange cheerleaders following him around.

Truly OUTSTANDING content. There is absolutely nothing else like this out there. Ever since Tiger, people started thinking that good golf was all about fitness, strength and how far you hit it! Losing to my 70 yr old father repeatedly when I was younger made me realize it was ALL about course management = putting it where you want. When the pros crush it 375, people ignore that they are ALWAYS thinking and strategizing backwards from the hole on every shot to put the ball where they want that next shot to be!

[@GolfSidekick]

And Tiger was taught the game from the green backwards. The irony

[@tedzink4574]

You did well learning from your dad. My golf buddy (72) and I (63) play twice a week, get paired with many young players, we beat most of those players even though many of them are longer than us. Sometimes we see them start pressing because we're in the fairway, in play, in position, 90% of the time. That can be intimidating. Playing the smart, stress free game Matt advocates certainly makes a hard game easier.

[@deanhays6115]

I've been playing almost 6 months after watching your video last week breaking 90 Did it Saturday Cheers Man

[@fsarfino]

[@TheDarwin1564]

Since I’ve started using the Grand Mojodulah’s course management program my numbers have been dropping steadily from 120 to 109 Going to break 100 this week I can see it I’m also only using 3 to 4 clubs

[@josephhaas7413]

I came within 2 strokes of breaking 80 for the first time in years, because of all your advice I watched! Thank you for helping to make me a more adaptable player! I shot only +1 for nine holes at a new course because you taught me to put the ball in the places that guaranteed my success, and would allow me to hit my shot shape and not the shot shape I wanted.

[@troyjohnson2325]

You got yourself a subscriber, playa. Been watching you for months with confidentiality and bringing your mentality with me on the course! Telling all my boyfriends about you!

[@ktkness]

Played a round with your strategy this week. I could feel how much better I was playing. Excited to keep it going and play safe golf. Safe golf is in play golf - in play golf is fun golf

Who wouldn’t play great with that crowd of beautiful caddies cheering them on? The key to confidentiality.

Relatively new to Golf, even with the same ball striking ability I’d be shooting 10-15 strokes more by not understanding course/self management. This content is the way to go.

Amazing video bru, i followed your course management techniques and shot even par on the back nine for the first time the other day after watching this. It was one of the most enjoyable rounds I’ve ever played thank you

[@JiKimbo]

Waddaplaya, I played my best round of golf tonight. I owe it to you and Mr Bob Rotella. I can stripe the ball, but suffer from nerves and expectations. I won my handicap match 6&5 from using confidential clubs and being chilled. Not taking on any danger. Love your work and can't wait to get my shirt and putter cover. If you fancy dropping in some signed merch that would be anazeballs!

[@GolfSidekick]

Nice playa. 6&5 is amazing. Did you see his ego completely destroyed?

Shot 4 strokes better than my handicap today (in my new Waddaplaya Pillow Fight Polo, no less), with even more room to go lower -- three 3-putts and a water hazard! I only hit 4 fairways and 2 greens in regulation, but kept telling myself "a chip and a putt-ski left" and (mostly) getting up and down. Confidential golf!

[@SM-og9pt]

The most beautiful women comment on your videos, it must be your confidentiality.

They should add Tour pro error index into the GPS golf apps like Golf Pad. Then after the round they show you a personal highlight reel of your shots that exceeded Pro averages. That would be awesome.

[@kevw.6982]

Love the three Motown dancers (caddies)! ❤ "Niiiiiiice. (clap, clap, clap.)

[@ToddPlaysGolf]

Most important: always have a caddie that can take the blame, that way you don't judge yourself, lowering your confidentiality, and ultimately disrupting your game.

[@GolfSidekick]

Actually this is true. Golfers who blame everything wonder but themselves during a game will do better. People who talk to themselves like a pissed of high school football coach at half time , will play shit

I missed my second par ever the other day because I rushed a short putt. I was still happy with a bogey but it should’ve been a par.

[@kwaste]

I like your golf philosophy, I'm going to try and employ it in my game. As you know we get carried away with the big sticks and golf shots we may not have. Play within yourself and hit clubs you are comfortable with is sound advice

[@RossTheNinja]

Had the game of my life on Monday. Longest hit was maybe 170. Not going for it when going for it is your one in ten strike makes all the difference

[@GolfSidekick]

Exactly bro. Play the percentages

[@thehairygolfer]

I think a lot of people don't think. I played with a 'got to smash driver everywhere' last week and it cost him 6 balls. If I wasn't a 5* ball ratter finding balls buried deep in the bush it could of been 9. What was that thing Einstein said about repeating and expecting a different result?

[@nickbarry7039]

Hey big dawg what is your thoughts on using a mini driver? Ever since my iron striking got better I can't get the driver up to save my life, always hit way too down on it. When I am hitting it decent my iron game goes in the gutter, I usually use a 4-5 iron, 5 wood or 3 wood off the tee. You think it's worth a shot since I have low confidentiality using the big boomerang?

[@GolfSidekick]

My most favorite clubs for handicap golfers: 1. 7 wood or 4 hyb 2. Mini driver 3. Fat sole 56° 4. Chipper 5. Easy to hit irons 6. 5 wood or 3 hyb 7. Flexible shaft driver 12° 8. Fitted putter Nowhere on the list never gonna feature: 15° 3 wood

[@BigD1957]

@@GolfSidekick I never liked Will and Grace. Therefore, I had to discard Mini Driver

[@ToddPlaysGolf]

I recently took the driver and 3-wood out of the bag; no confidentiality. I used my 4 hybrid for T-shots (par4/5s) and took 14 strokes off from my previous round. Not only that, I was hitting good tempo, with what felt like half-swing, and was "outdriving" my playing partners by 10 yards.

[@nickbarry7039]

@@GolfSidekick Thanks for the response boss, the 5 wood has been solid off the tee for me as of late. Crazy thing is the best tee shots of my entire life have been when using my old Titleist 15.5 3 wood, usually play 9 and tend to shoot mid to high 40's. Golf is a mad game, thanks for all your knowledge brotha man

[@thomastrain7311]

Same issue here. I'm hitting my irons the best I ever have and the driver is going nowhere. Low and only about 20 yds more carry than my 5 iron (22°) . I carry the 5i 210 yds. I've had to adjust my set up with driver. Shoulder tilt (lead shoulder slightly higher) has helped as well as this. Just simply starting with the driver a few inches behind the ball. This helps me to hit the ball on the way up so to speak.

Golfed an 89 on a very difficult course and had fun. Everyone would automatically grab driver off the tee and I didn’t need to hit one and beat my companions by 5 strokes.
