I'm looking for suggestions on tips to film for future videos. Please comment below!

[@BanbanGB]

Hi Padraig i was wondering how do you manage fairway bunker under 100 yards

[@SuperNisch]

I’d love to see course management. Both when you play but even more - see you give advice to some weekend warrior 🙏😊

[@ericmachus4290]

Putting drills and practice. Your thoughts on lag putting and how far away do you change focus to lag and length rather than making it.

[@JohandariAber]

After chipping its how not to 3 putss or more..to lower my score..appreciate it

[@jurgenthebeagle6066]

Getting out from under the trees.

[@royal4826]

Paddy you have endeared yourself to us weekend warriors with the generous giving of your time, skill and expertise and the excellence of your teaching. I feel privileged and am extremely grateful to you.

[@StephenEats]

Paddy😂

[@MrAhuraMazda]

You're welcome, Robbie. I do what I can

[@phillipharrell7692]

Well said

[@charlesalan5999]

Well said sir! I totally concur with that sentiment.

[@mwade6982]

“You’re never in between clubs” - love that Padraig.

[@thomaskozar8510]

he was pretty passionate about that one, lol!

[@user-nc3uc4oi6h]

There’s no such thing as a bad lie either. 😂 It’s such a tough game to play… got to practice, get out what you put in with this game.

[@vicpnut1]

For any pro id say there should never be in between clubs ,but us mere mortals 🤷🏼‍♂️😜😬👍🏼✌️

[@Nasher007]

I have a “feeling “ Paddy is the best teacher on KZbin!

[@SuperRueful]

Padraig's coaching is the most practical, no BS, easy going advise you can get get on KZbin. Long may he continue!

[@jonathancooper5672]

You're my absolute hero for doing these in your spare time.

[@kathybaxter8898]

I always look forward to your videos, how often does one get a lesson from a major winning pro!

[@philipgame5556]

A multiple major winner at that

[@MT-fd6pu]

Hands down best teacher on KZbin, oh and he has the resume to back it! Awesome, thank you kind sir!

[@primafacie6442]

“I should do that all the time, that’s perfect!” 😂😂😂😂👍🏽

[@jmb4172]

Professor Harrington ...like fine wine, you just keep getting better and better! Thank you for your time and efforts to help us "want to be good" golfers!

[@voice_of_reason5604]

“I was in between clubs” omg how often have I heard myself say that? No excuses on that one now! Fantastic tips. Cheers Paddy.

[@mattrichards3070]

Proper instruction 👏🏼👏🏼 that’s one thing that annoys me when watching golf on the TV, they’ll tell you what iron they are using and not what wedge, e.g. 60,56,52

[@reedhornsby2420]

This man’s ball flight is like an extension of his actual body. Like you can see him just feeling the curve of the ball in his hands. It’s amazing he can even put it into words.

[@benobaars]

Thank you very much for all the information. It reduces my frustration.

[@PadraigHarringtonOfficial]

Glad to help

[@pilotngb]

Think this video has the potential to save my golf season. Took the tips to the course this evening and it helped, Thanks Padraig!

[@bknoxx]

this is some of the best instruction iv'e heard.. the thing is most golf instructors over explain and have all these gimmicks but when tour pro's give lessons it's straight to the point the demonstrated.. i love it.. thanks Paddy

[@LIMKIMSEONGWEST]

Paddy , you’re my favourite golf instructor . You’re the best . There’s no one else who has given so much information on all aspects of the golf game .

[@bangkokspinn2527]

Nice to watch all these tips from you , one of the best golf channels ......

[@jerryholder6999]

Thanks for not saying "do this, or else" or "get 10 more yards if you just..." Love the notion of feel, the tips that validate my own homegrown solutions such as choking up, your pre-shot swinging to get your body & head tuned into the shot a hand, and the stance width ideas. You make me feel like I can be better at this.

[@primafacie6442]

Loving the humility and humour!

[@stevesheridan3575]

You have given generations of golfers the holy grail of instruction. You are generous with your knowledge and your love of the game.

[@aliasErEf]

Many thanks for your generous help Paddy. An Irishman in Montréal, Canada

[@dushoan]

I'm a big fan of this Gen. for a long time now. It's not only about his golf game but his positive manner on and off course. Great to have him in the golf world!

[@kevsstream6349]

This is simply amazing getting all these Golf Gems from a Legend. Thanks Mr. Harrington.

[@pnwgolf258]

Finally, I always thought I need a bigger divot and back or the stance swing. Thank you

[@brent-edwards]

Outstanding series Padraig; we all appreciate you taking the time to put these together. I love your direct, concise and matter of fact way of looking at the game and technique.

[@stefanelensky5066]

Best wedge play video I have ever seen(and I’ve seen a lot)

[@Dreama40]

These golf tips are pure Gold! from the guy who's done it all at the highest level! Stop scrolling it's all here with Paddy.

[@DASH1ful]

the secret to your wedge play is the way you position your head so well. rory has greatly improved his short game, but you would be my short game coach if i was him.

[@margaretwalsh852]

Watched Padraig at the Open at Saucon Valley this year. He's hitting it past just about everyone, looks in tremendous shape, and was knocking down pins all day. He will dominate the Champions Tour.

[@jacobr4558]

Thank you so much for explaining these feels! Just the idea of "trying to stop the clubhead" has given me some completely different tools to work with. Such quality information! Your lessons open my mind and warm my heart. There is so much misinformation and deception in the "teaching" industry that I was becoming very apathetic and jaded. Thank you for reminding me how fantastic this game is and how pure it can be once you block out the egos and the noise. You are a breath of fresh air!!!

[@terryfrazier2751]

Mr. Harrington not only are you a great golfer, you are a great teacher. Thank you so much for sharing you’re time with us so we can improve.

[@user-sj1hz9qw3e]

Just watched this video and am grateful for the multitude of tips on technique, distance control, even club selection re 60 degree wedge limitations. Any other KZbin golf poster would have taken perhaps up to 10 videos over two or three weeks to cover a third of the information you provided in this one lesson. Thank you sir.

[@simonwise2669]

Wonderful helpful advice from a brilliant golfer. Thank you.

[@bigdogpete43]

We appreciate you giving back. Chances are I will take your advice instead of the advice of other internet gurus.

[@jamiewike9742]

Congrats on the win, sir. And I value each tip that you offer! Thanks a lot!

[@johnsullivan4070]

It is a tremendous benefit to budding, wknd golfers that you have putbout this series Padraig, many of the tips have helped inform my practice and improve my play - none more so than the grip focused vids - thank you sir!!!

[@timdouglas4]

It's such a pleasure to watch your videos Paddy. They're always intuitive, clearly explained and entertaining, You're an inspirational figure in the game we love. Thank you

[@scoopmendenhall1008]

A wonderful easy way to play golf

[@philiphougesen]

Paddy - you are a true champ and very generous with these videos. What a treat to watch and learn from you. Thank you! Future video suggestion: How to play in windy conditions. E.g. the punch shot, club selection, driver in wind, other tips and swing thoughts.

[@jaytucker4338]

Uhhhhh...that was just super-fantastic!! I love how you ended with " I can give you no more when it comes to pitching."...because, you just gave us everything! Thanks Padraig.

[@jlcsr9163]

Thanks Padraig as a senior player my short game needs to be sharp to make pars.

[@gatortoof]

I’m so glad I found this Channel. Thanks Champ!! Best teacher ever, who knew.

[@JT-od4df]

Great finish this week @ the Mitsubishi !!!!

[@basic6154]

never boring ,always incitefull. thanks Mr Harrington

[@manfrommaine1194]

Thank you so much for these videos Paddy. We are just starting to golf up here in Maine and it usually takes me a month to get back into it, but after watching all your videos I’m already shooting my scores from last year. Not only that, but I feel like I’m playing much worse but completely saved by all your tips. Thank you

[@user-wq7cc2zd5h]

Wow! What a difference watching a REAL PRO give advice and others. Love the channel and Thank You!

[@bobmcglone6676]

Paddy, thanks for sharing your wonderful skills with us. Really appreciate your time. Your one of the very best on KZbin.

[@Golffish2000]

Thanks i watched your pga tour in Atlanta and you gave us a golf ball

[@abedrowsky]

I got to very briefly chat with him at Adare Manor in Ireland this weekend. What a pleasant human being. Thanks Paddy!

[@colinwhite2724]

You are the best. Phenomenal stuff.

[@jimpickard3850]

Every time I watch your videos Paddy, there's something in there I've never heard before. Absolutely priceless !

[@anthonypapa9407]

This is a great instructional video. I love the thought process in how to manipulate the club to hit different shots.

[@patrickscott7446]

I've found your videos to be so practical and helpful to the developing golfer! Your language is clear and easy to understand. I feel like I have a deeper understanding of the golf swing with every video you release! Thanks so much!

[@maxwellhowell]

Immediately subscribed.! And this video is what I need to work on most. 🤙🏼

[@PeteCroft1]

Great tuition Padraig, thank you.

[@blaineharris4921]

Just great stuff. moving the ball forward and chipping with less than a 60 unless necessary was exactly what I needed. i think with that info i can beat you now. with 9 per side that is. :)

[@streetsoundselectro124]

It still baffles me just how good you have to be to be a great golfer.all the nuances involved in a golf swing is so subtle!thanks paddy for your help

[@kcsunshine3659]

Thanks Paddy, great value as always. I practice pitching a lot but still can find rooms for improvement after watching your video, i.e. the "variations" that you covered here.

[@briggs13a]

great job on your senior us open win.congrats

[@BoloFrancis]

Some of the best videos on line. Explained in a no nonsense way with all the key points highlighted and this one on 50 - 100 yards is no exception. So much detail I will be coming back to this over and over. Thank you. As for next ideas impact, follow through, club path to target direction or the average practice or tournament day for Padraig. Thanks again, keep up the great work 😇

[@lennydw67]

Great video, I can’t tell you how freeing it is to know you don’t have to get a ton of shaft lean on your wedges and just let the hands stop at the ball, as that is what comes naturally for me. Now I can just focus on my feel and distance control.

[@simao0711]

Paddy - the tips in this video have been so useful. After playing for 40 years or so, the tips have transformed the way I think about pitch shots. I have recommended your videos to all my golfing mates. Thanks so much.

[@kiwiveritas]

Best golf videos on youtube!

[@dontpa_nic]

Yes! This video is exactly what I'd been meaning to suggest. And at the perfect time for me after winter.

[@davidbarker5652]

Thanks Padraig. You've inspired me to get back to golf after a hiatus! Congratulations on your victory in the US Senior Major. I remember watching you at the Open in 2003 at Royal St George's, and I'm a long time fan and admirer. Great to see you giving back to the game in this way at a time when other players' motives are under scrutiny.

[@SuperNisch]

Not just educational, this is pure entertainment 👍😅

[@tommigun102470]

Paddy you have always been one of my favorite Golfers!

[@adambarnes4191]

The skill pros like Paddy posses is other worldly, but listening to him discuss his practice habits makes me realize how much time and effort the most talented players put into honing their craft to reach their potential. Thank you for the time and insight.

[@mabelolivera1690]

Great video!! Wood video and hybrids

[@n70199]

My favorite professional golfer and instructor. Amazing content Padraig. Thank you for sharing.

[@PadraigHarringtonOfficial]

Of course, my pleasure

[@patarmstrong4676]

Let me please echo what others have already said...thank you Sir for the time and effort you have taken here and on countless other videos to teach us how to play the hardest game on the planet. Your valuable time and effort is greatly appreciated. You get our most profound respect in doing these super high quality lessons, and I can say without a doubt that your instruction has led to a much greater understanding of the finer points of golf. This video is such an important one, since pitching and chipping can be the deciding factor between a great score and potentially a bogey or worse. Thanks Padraig once again for helping us "break the code." And now, on to the practice sessions...Cheers!

[@jtdw81]

Thanks for these videos, Paddy. Really great to hear these tips from someone who has played at the highest level. Solid goal.

[@wreckim]

Why would a multiple Major champion take time to share this stuff with us hackers? I guess, you're just giving back to the game and being a total gentleman. Thank you.

[@sjgsteve21]

Stopping the club face at impact is such a small but significant tip. It finally helped me feel what closing the club face is like. Mega slice is gone. And the chipping is so nippy now ❤

[@winston9971]

Perfect timing. I have the dreaded yipes thanks champ

[@michelecerami9224]

Thanks Paddy, always great and useful videos. I have improved my golf with your lessons. Keep posting 👍😃

[@Stephens857]

These videos are absolutely class Paddy 🏌🏻🏌🏻🏌🏻

[@vincemcerlane1494]

First time I have watched Padraig and now subscribed. the 52 wedge idea is working for me. Took this to the range and course and works well for me. Thanks

[@ollycole4917]

Brilliant tips here. Love it.

[@judyjohnson4117]

Thanks for your respectful for us strugglers who try to look like you ! Your compassion for us is the greatest gift you can give us struggles

[@golferkevt]

Thank-you, Information I've never heard before with so many golf tips available on KZbin. Your knowledge of the game compared to golf coaches is immeasurable.

[@jackgrant1988]

Again! This is massive help for me and so many others, thank you!! I like how you demonstrate the different ball position variations and what the results are. Also what you should be looking for with ball flight and divots! Hoping you do well at St Andrews this year!!

[@michaelslattery513]

Thank you, Mr. Harrington. Straight forward and understandable, providing many options while keeping it simple like the true master you are. You have a new subscriber smashing the thumbs up and looking forward to more content.😀

[@scrouch9656]

[@henryweston8273]

Absolutely love these tips, thank you

[@MrDoobie834]

Paddy I am the worst of the worst hackers when it comes to pitching or more so chipping. I saw your tip and though omg yeah right that cannot work... just like all the others.... but of course I gave it a go.... I can actually chip the ball for the first time in my life without chunkn and dunkn at all. Thanks so much!!

[@jamesevans5992]

Wonderful insight Padraig, I especially love your emphasis on understanding ’feel’…all too often on KZbin its all about drills that can magically sort things out but quite clearly, the real secret is to understand ‘feel’ and what that mean individually for each player.

[@lovetogolf4184]

Thank's Padraig!!

[@vansonguitars8981]

So much good info in this one, many thanks. This will keep me busy on the practice field for months.

[@harrisonbergeron5393]

The is solid gold man. Thank you Paddy. You are amazing.
