How to hit the Flop Shot in Golf - The Easy Way

[@jeffnahass8373]

I have to give you credit for helping me with my game. I only watch a select few people on you tube, you are one of them. I shot in the 80s the other day. I never shot below 100. EVER! Love your energy.

[@andygreen2765]

Well done dude....you will be under 100 forever now you have broken through!

[@james-ww3ot]

I agree, he's really helped me with my game too

[@darrellpate1270]

Maaaaaannnnnn this is year 3 for me watching Mr. SG and last year doesn't really count but since I've seen this guy I broke 40 in 9 holes 🕳️ I was always close but my average was 45 Now my average is 41 and I except that number to drop a few more strokes nbs My Drive has improved 75% of fairways and 20 yards longer now I want to learn to turn the screw My short game is so much better within 60 yards I can get within 20ft with consistency My goal is to Break 80 this year folks are asking how often do I practice and who have I been taking lessons with I am right lipped but it's been all Mr SG Gonna get some alignment stick covers Thank you Mr SG

This comment looks staged imo

[@rickcudmore8156]

The reference to a 30' uphill putt provides great content and understanding.

[@docparker3257]

Been practicing this and finally used it to save par today.

[@BrianRPost]

Hey Matt, I tried this flop shot twice today, and it worked to perfection. Staying low is the key. I was three feet or so from the pin on both occasions. My playing partners were very impressed. Me too! Many thanks for all your help!

[@marks.Landing]

Wow you make it sound so very very simple and only a very small amount of key components to achieve, your explanation is very achievable, unlike most coaches and their stupid amounts of key points to hit in one movement, you are good at what you do, cheers Mark from down under

[@GregMooreGooglePlus]

I like your instruction style. You don't get overly technical. Your videos with the other guys are fun to watch.

[@nickwillie8607]

Man this was so entertaining. I’m sincere saying that. As I sit here super stoned, I have learned many tips to try to improve my short game, I have laughed my ass off over and over again, and I’ve found my new favorite KZbinr. Man you keep it real! A flop shot for “us”. I love it. You are very relatable and I’ll definitely be watching more of your stuff. Thanks for the video!

[@vmhanlon]

I've been trying to add the flop shot to my arsenal this year, with limited success. Today I used this technique and what a difference it made. As a bonus I was able to show off to my playing partner with my amazing new skill.

[@garyfarmer5855]

This flop shot technique really works just as you.have shown. Thanks a bunch! Best flop shot drill ever!

[@redscorpion3]

Thank you, MSG. Going back to playing golf after 4 years of inactivity, your videos are not only helping me but they’re actually fun to watch.👍

[@bryanmulcahy8998]

What a difference a day makes 😄😄 took the 60 yard routine to the course for the first time today. Man alive, I shot 76 gross, 5 over for my course playing of a 14.! My buddies didn't know what was going on. I finally figured out what I have been doing wrong, and did it right. Thank you so much 😄😄🍺🍺

[@villagevillage2400]

What an absolute legend! This looks like a lot of fun, thanks mate

[@ronc.7249]

This is an awesome technique. My 9 year old grandson and me have been using for past week. Definitely works very well. Thank you

[@nathanfrisby3133]

Excellent advice from you Matt, thank you.

[@jrshields3]

Thanks for the great tip. The shot you showed coming out of the bunker is very useful.

[@HEROSLIDER]

Literally was just watching Phil doing those crazy flop shots and was like "that's impossible" so this video is appreciated 👍

[@simonogley8520]

Thought i had this shot already, but your mechanics are so much simpler, used it twice on course today in uk, up and down both times, such a simple shot to learn thanks to you Matt, keep up the good work

[@brianfrith126]

Thanks for the short game video

[@jbrownsea]

Been running at 40% up and down since following your channel (from 20%). I even shock myself. Keep up the good work!

[@ericmilliot5807]

It's great to see that you showed this technique can be very useful to get out of the bunker and still be aggressive at the hole.

[@tomfletcher7625]

Brilliant advice, the clearest I've seen it explained.

[@josephlovotti1055]

I've never heard anyone talk about the low hands aspects of a flop shot. Going to try that right away.

[@bogieviews]

Cool. Been playing 6 yrs. Most improvement since I found your vids. Thx.

[@bluejeans8001]

Really think the new “like” icons were cool. Much better than having to interrupt your video to make a point. Long time follower and have learned so much regarding swing mechanics. Thank you so much👍👍👍

[@carlcjs316]

This totally works! You are the man Mr. short game!

[@edwalt3157]

Matt, I’m a 3 hdcp and taking regular lessons on my full swing but my short game practice is limited with Covid restrictions at local courses. You’re videos have really helped me to refocus on scoring shots inside 100 yards. Thanks for the easy to understand techniques.

[@deanbowditch7329]

Always love your content Matt. Had surgery on torn quad tendon in April and all i have are golf video's to keep focused. Hope to use all your knowledge when i can swing them in September. Keep up the great work!!!!!

[@JC-bp5dw]

I needed this one. Gonna give it a go tomorrow before my round. Thanks, MSG!

[@randycosgrove3608]

I've had trouble with short shots out of heavy rough ( lots of that on my course ) to short sided pins ( mostly where I miss it seems ) for years. Watched this video and then tried it out the next day on the practice green. Worked as advertised so I took it to the course that day and it helped me save a nice par on a long tough par 5. Thanks for showing us how to make this shot and for making the set up and mechanics simple and clear. Your site is one of 2 that I watch regularly. Mostly because you are clear in what you're showing and focus on the details that help me make better shots and scores without needless details that cloud the instruction.

[@linus9624]

Really solid advice with an easy to follow technique. Thanks for great videos as always!

[@williamfrazier787]

Thanks for the flop lesson. The deliverance of your knowledge and technique is primo classe!

[@ABurns-lk5lp]

I love your lessons.....keep it going big guy

[@johncarilloiii7828]

OMG, I've never had a new shot work to perfection the first time I tried it ... and the next 30 times! No skulls, fat shots, etc. I'm an upper 80's shooter too. The setup felt awkward as hell. Thought I'd skull the cover off the ball. WORKED GREAT!!!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! I had no 10 - 15 yard shot over a bunker ... do now! Thanks!!!

[@nickpritchard7130]

Great vid. I will be adding this shot to my game...Cheers

[@charlesmccormick2625]

Great teaching energy; wide stance, weight forward, low hands. This will help!

[@n3v3rsvff3r2]

This dude's Bro Energy is killing me. Love this video.

[@65chevystepside]

Great video! Your technique for teaching shots is perfect. Super easy to pick up!

[@kiza2834]

Love the way you explain and show the process of your how to videoes, can’t wait to practice this shot!! Thanks Mr short game

[@pedrodrenes]

You rock man, thanks for the tips. They are working super!! 👊💥

[@midlifebiker7424]

I love this shot, similar to bunker shot. Have to be brave though, more aggressive more height...

[@homebizsupport]

Matt, your videos are really useful and you are a lot of fun to watch and to listen to. Your energy and humour make it so much easier for me to learn and I thank you for your good work mate. I am down-under in Oz and in bloody lockdown yet again. Can't wait to get out and try the flop; shot and the forty yarder over water. Yes; I have liked. Yes: I have subscribed and raung the bell.

[@ursus9104]

Great instruction! 😮

[@garymartin9898]

Another great video Brochocho. I Dig Your style.

[@brettalan219]

Great lesson mate, I will definitely be using this technique tomorrow morning for flop shots

[@robbiegolding1831]

Wow!! I used this yesterday for some longer shots and it worked perfect! Thanks Matt!

[@douglasphilippa5554]

Liked this lesson!

[@mreast01]

Thanks for your videos. I've tried a few things you've posted about. It worked for me. I posted my lowest score twice in one week! 79 (+9) ... Thanks and keep tips coming! #PorterSalute

[@aaronjohnson3602]

Love it Thanks for all the tips, your really helping with my game.

[@eds2941]

I tried this on the course today and it really works. Another fantastic video!

[@d.a.stacey4808]

Great vid ...from one of your fans across the pond.

[@frankescobar5802]

Thanks for the tip as always. Will try it this weekend.

[@keithod]

Another great video Matt! Keep rocking it

[@GolfTesla]

Once again a nice, instructive and entertaining video

[@davidbesterman7289]

Good video. I enjoy your videos. You make the short game look simple which is not easy. Keep up the good work

[@vivitoisright382]

Awesome tip Matt, I needed this since I try to avoid the risky flop. Thanks.

[@Britton0932]

Thank you! Trying to learn the Phil Phlop has taken so long and I get it right about 15% of the time. I stopped using it because it added more strokes than it’s worth. I suffered a chip and roll downhill. I’d rather put from the opposite fringe than be pitching a skied Phlop from 10yard off the opposite side. I’m going to add this to my game!!! Thank you

[@johnherman3261]

Hey Matt. I finally got out this week and you could sum up my entire golf game as a flop shot

[@paulschonebeck709]

Lol you might 😂 love the chop part. Great video

[@jwalkerC21]

Instruction is so good

[@bobweiss6339]

Great vid! Thanks! Going to go work on this right now and bring it to the course Sunday!

[@satxvike]

Excellent lesson. Thank you!

[@mikesmith-nh1jw]

My approach is similar setup but very little backswing, stiff left wrist (no hinge) and accelerate through. I like the long putt analogy.

[@markmatthews6839]

Great video. Very helpful. I need a consistent swing for those lies in the rough around the green. Especially when short sided. Matt, will you do a video on a nice high spinning (back it UP) wedge shot?

[@Loganpdice]

Earned my sub! Your analogies and demonstrations made it so easy to understand and visualize. Can’t wait to try this out. Only advice is maybe to think about adding time stamps to make it easy to skip through and rewatch. 3 years late but I’m definitely going to check out your other videos for tutorials. Quick question: How do you hit a flop from a much further distance? Let’s say 20-30 yards? Is it same swing but more power? Thanks!

[@jimbeaver27]

I love it and will use it, thanks. I have actually practised a bit of flop shots but not these really short ones.

[@burke803]

Works great, thank you

[@beeejayy6298]

Thank you 🙏🏽 , the checks in the mail

[@es9526]

Like your style.....very entertaining and helpful!

[@78tag]

Thanks, bud - that isn't my normal approach to either the flop or the sand shot but that looks like a great alternative to get my brain around. I can see where under varying conditions this could be added to my ATTEMPTS to get closer to the hole so I can 2 put! :):):)

[@joegould7459]

Just played 1 over for 9 holes, thanks for all the help!

[@OGT4204]

I love the flop shot, flopped one in the other day from 35 yards out, it was one of my best shots ever, however I botch it often so I get nervous using it.

[@stevejenkins3225]

Great video, love the course.

[@alanconway540]

Top class as always Matt

[@2468wil]

Great video

[@johnlysic6727]

Schweeet - heading out to the back yard right now! Thank you thank You

[@dominicblattmann3763]

Problem of back yard is only if you top one of those it will fly forever...

[@james-ww3ot]

Great video my man..thank you

[@MrCnAZ]

Excellent videos. Thank you :)

[@jeremycolston8383]

Nice video. Great info that I need to put into practice. Snake would've made a nice belt.

[@GP-yc2it]

Holy crap! Open the face to 45 degrees, offset your stance 45 degrees to square the face to your line, swing along your line. Control distance with the backswing clock face technique. Easy peasy!

[@denverfdz]

Love ur work man ....

[@kensmith6972]

Def earned the nickname “Mr. Leg day” nice quads “Mr. snake charmer “

[@Biglou1478]

Will definitely work on this one

[@jazb.6123]

Solid. Thanks!

[@ZuluAlphaMike]

i like your background music buddy. Regards- Zam from Kuala Lumpur

[@rubenpadilla3865]

Went straight to my backyard to try it and it worked very well. Thank you very much for this great video. What is the best ball position for the flop shot?

[@62catamount]

I enjoy the hell out of your videos.

[@chipinable]

I already gave this video a thumbs up for the snake surprise at the beginning. "Snakes...Why'd it have to be snakes?!?"

[@james-ww3ot]

LOL!!

[@josephwirtz8352]

Great video sir, I’ll be implementing this ASAP! Thank you much! ⛳️🏌🏽‍♂️🐍

[@garyfarmer5855]

I tried your method off of fake grass and it works great - hope I can do it off the turf.

[@patshatur1578]

How about over a bunker and stop on green quickly maybe 20 yards?

[@roejye06]

Sand wedge, open it up a bit, for me backswing goes waist high and do almost a full follow through so I commit to the shot.

[@Smiththebat]

The Phil Flop will getcha this shot

[@johncarilloiii7828]

Yep, just tried with a less lofted club, still works, goes a bit further. Love it!

[@iamdallmyd4733]

Love this golfer

[@larrymasterspowerbuildingc4477]

thank you

[@thefuzz2570]

Love your videos! Fun and entertaining! How do I score one of those hats though??!!

[@sheldon397]

Nice it's the shot j need

[@Edward-np4ih]

Great tips. How do you aim? Open stance as well?

[@MrFuchew]

perfect set up for me to show you how to blade one into the golf cart

[@t.j.padden8533]

Great video. Is that Eagle Glen?

[@jasonjillain8940]

Great Vids. Do you have any uneven lie vids where the ball is lower or higher than your feet. Not up hill down hill. Saw that one. Very good as well. I like your approach and your energy. I have a decent flop shot but next time I practice I'm gonna give this way a try for sure.

[@jimmack6744]

Excellent tip! I needed this today. Practice on Monday! Thanks!

[@ericstinnett9182]

Great video, when you was hitting out of the bunker did you shift your weight back, if yes what was the purpose , than when you want a couple of feet away from the green ⛳🏌️‍♂️🏌️‍♀️🏌️. Thanks
