How Do YOU Break 80? - ft. Golf Sidekick [WEKOPA - SAGUARO COURSE]

[@MrSaints74]

You and Matt never disappoint. Football season is over, now its time for golf for me.

[@GolfSidekick]

lol i think the 18th tee was moved moved up slightly there bro. Otherwise we hit a couple monsters

[@mattparsons946]

You and Adam (or you and Matt, depending on whom is reading this 😀) are two legends. Love how you play off of each other.

I thought it was an elevated tee shot from up high. Maybe he was just high. 😂😂😂

[@NeisNo1Fan]

Being a good golfer is one thing - to be able to be so relatable to the rest of us is where the real talent lies. Matt and Adam are both excellent at this. Watching them gives me the confidence to play better and want to be better. WhaddaPairOfPlayas!

collab of the century lets go!!

[@bernardduffy3300]

Hi Adam! I discovered your channel thanks to being a subscriber to Matt's channel. I decided to take a look at some more of your videos over the past 48 hours. I am delighted to subscribe to your channel, too. I am aged 68 and have played golf for 34 years - half my life (except that I had a break of almost 10 years when work got in the way). Now retired, I live in England and play three times a week. My home course is rated 71.4 with a slope of 127. My lowest handicap would have been 9.6 under WHS. The UK used to have a different handicapping system. Now, I have a WHS index of 14.7 but believe that I could still get it down by a shot or two. I am an optimist, by nature! My personal best score was 74 gross; and in my forties, before my playing break, I frequently shot under 80 gross. Now, I am a high 80s shooter with occasional scores around 82-83. I can no longer drive it much beyond 200 yards (I am five feet seven inches and weigh 155 pounds with cervical spine problems and arthritis.) However, your videos have convinced me that I do not need more length off the tee. I just need a sharper short game to reduce the number of double bogeys! You have a great temperament and my friends say that I do, too. So, doing better, from inside 100 yards, is the key to scoring lower more consistently. That will require a sharper focus on each shot in order to reduce the rank bad ones. I like your "no nonsense" editing style. You just show every shot and do a voice over to explain what you were thinking at the time. In saying that, I take nothing away from the Playa's contrasting style. I enjoy his content very much; and his move to the USA should prove to be a source of even more entertaining material. Anyway, after this long post, I need to continue to catch up with your back catalogue. Please keep posting!

[@tomconnolly8903]

More putting videos and tips are always good

[@Real28]

On the subject of green reading, I think it's said by coaches that most amateurs under-read putts. I'd call myself a decent putter, consistently under 2 putt average but I think this year I'm going to add 0.5 to 1 ball of extra break and see what happens

[@lolh4x]

Great collab. Two of my favorite golf channels, and you've both helped my game tremendously. I look forward to the rest of the collabs, and holy smokes I want to hit the courses and play some golf now.

[@matthewedie4137]

Two fantastic golf channels that have helped me understand that ego impacts scores more than technique sometimes. Little putting tips and tricks could be some fun videos. Maybe a minute long video where you give a quick tip about the putter face, reading the green, or even a drill or two that you do before a round of golf. They could be a fast paced video which could change things up away from the course vlog content that you have truly mastered.

[@dougblunk1972]

Great to see the 2 of you playing together! Very interesting to watch the different ways folks get to similar scores. Yes please on your putting routine/techniques and any drills you might use would be great.

[@Crgx22r7]

Great video as always Adam. Love seeing you guys get to play together! I love both of your channels because not enough people talk about the mental part of the game and it's so important. Between that and putting I think people could cut more strokes from their game than any equipment out there. Also, I'm a big admirer of your putting skills, so I would love lots more putting content!

[@paulkoppenheffer5323]

Great vlog. Fun to see you and Matt Together. Shows you there's more than one way to get it done. I am in he same boat as you, distance challenged, so short game has to be great. Like you, I pretty much keep it in front of me, try to miss in the right spots and rely on chipping, pitching and putting to score. Short game and putting vids would be great, no quicker way to shave strokes than to sharpen the short game. 70% of your scores are from 70 yards and in. Working on my backswing/take away and transition to improve my distance. Unfortunately for me golf season is still a few months away. Always rooting for you to play your best.

[@aviatoraw]

Nice job fellas! 120 yards and in is where us club golfers need to improve.

[@BillHaug]

Love your videos... do you really consider your shortgame to be your strength? ... I would say it is your driving and your general ability to keep the ball in play... you are excellent in that regard.

[@chrisw5574]

I'd say his short game and short memory are his biggest strengths by far. He typically drains multiple long putts per video and his lag putts leave him with very few three putts. Combine that with forgetting the last hole before you start the next one and it's easy to see how he can score right a long with someone hitting 300 yard bombs while he's only plunking them out there 230ish off the tee.

[@richard1935]

@@chrisw5574 Yeah he cleans up crazy well.

Your viewers would definitely appreciate your putting tips, even chipping too.

[@MyBallzGotShocked]

#1 tip i have for you adam, your arms are to low across your chest at the top of your back swing. If your take away is closer to your body and arms high towards the air above your chest at the top, you will gernerate more lag and club speed on your follow through. Your flexibility looks good but you arent alowing your arms to lag at the start of the down swing killing club head speed.

Is Matt pulling a Dechambeau? By this I mean he's not playing standard lofts. Dechambeau 7iron is the same as my 4. Yes he cream his 7 way further than my 4 but the comparison is closer and makes you feel less inadequate when you realise his lofts are massively different to you and me.

I emailed you almost a few months before you came to the US of A Playa but you never replied to me ! Playa you diss-appoint me. If I knew you were going to buy a place in Arid zona, and play on some courses here - would have loved to meet up and play a round. Then we could have both met the belligerent guy at the bar who offered his wife to you!

Lololol. So many people so little time. I didn’t organize any of the rounds myself

[@tybal96]

Your follow through is abit dead you need to make it more consistent so your ball flight stays on track slightly better than it currently is! You need to follow through the whole way! It’ll add more straighter shots

[@GolfSidekick]

How?

[@tybal96]

The higher handicapper! You see as he swings through the ball! The hands go abit everywhere! He wants to carry on through the line and bring his hands up! Completing the swing and you want to stand and hold the final position for a good 3/4 full seconds and get into the routine of doing so! I used to do the same and found when I fixed the follow through I was getting straight/cleaner hits because I was fully committed to the swing and the cleaner ball striking comes with! Hope it helps guys! Golf is a game I’ll never master! Far from expert but just trying to help when I can

[@GenXisT]

I'm going to tell you right now the issue you're having with distance. Almost all amateur golfers do this, including me. It's called "hitting the brakes." Please, watch this video to find out what you're doing: kzbin.info/www/bejne/l5WyiYmojJp2gqc . On almost every one of your shots other than driver, you're "hitting the brakes." This robs you of all distance you'd otherwise have. Not to mention, it really alters your aim. You're stopping your swing instead of doing a full follow through. The only way to do this is to start easing up before you even get to the ball. it's costing you dearly. I wouldn't tell you this if I hadn't had the same problem. Many of your wedge and mid irons, you're not even getting around at all and they appear as chip shots.

Perhaps it could help him to? It doesn't hurt to try it (at the range) does it? If he doesn't like doing it, don't. I really don't care either way. Was just a suggestion, again.
