Y’all should give a subscriber a chance to win a golf lesson that would be sick

[@bowerbig]

I love Matts swing, and Brad is an excellent teacher and golfer. Phenomenal short game, with high expectations.

[@musicalrider05]

It definitely looks the smoothest of the GG crew

[@CartierGolf]

I bet Brad leaves like grant to become a teacher

[@TheCarty1986]

​@CartierGolf Wrong. Brad knows what he got invited into.

[@CartierGolf]

@@TheCarty1986 same as grant?!?!?!?????

[@davidharris2339]

Matt is making the best of it while recovering from his back. Love the lesson and keep up the good work, Matt !

[@FitNerd420]

such great content as norm! this video came in handy to hit up my garage sim for practice. much love ✌️

[@Getwhichya]

wow I am thrilled this video just came out. I was at the range Saturday trying to figure out what I can work on and I will be using this exact drill next weekend. I cannot stop coming out and down from the top on my swing! This should be so helpful. Thanks Brad!

[@braddalkegolf]

Hope it helps, thanks for watching!

[@Bob-te3le]

Shout out to Brad. A great player and coach.

[@michaelmontejano7352]

I like the water bottle technique,I was taught also when bringing your swing back was act like your shaking some one hand with your right hand when bringing swing back . And when bringing the club back act like your trying to put your right hand in your pocket. Those both helped out.

[@robertmiller4139]

Great video. I love how straight forward it was. Next, can you please give Garrett a putting lesson?

[@grantschoeck]

Awesome! Looks like I got a drill to start working on!

[@peterandresen328]

Good information thanks

[@Mikeb979]

My coach been trying to get me to hit the inside of the ball with driver and my brain just doesn’t comprehend. I think the missing part was dropping my hands close to my body. Definitely hitting the range tomorrow. Thanks Brad!

[@chrismaguire9532]

I have the same problem except the opposite. Practicing alignment, in my opinion, is the best thing I can do for my game

[@HOshots]

Put the allingment stuck in the ground so it's hovering above the ball great for take back and over the top montion really helps with my swing

[@joeking5210]

Oo just had an idea for Good Good Labs: when I was teaching my younger cousin the basics of golf, I made up a game to play until he got good enough to keep his actual score. 3 points for hitting the fairway, 3 points for GIR, and 3 points for 2 putting (or less). I think it was 3/3/3, I can't remember if I gave more weight to one of those objectives. It would be awesome to see you play a round in that format with someone who is still learning.

[@bonscottrocks1728]

Let's freaking go boys

[@badbilly429]

Brad you rock!

[@altorres9495]

I'll bet you Matt says "alignment" more than 3 times. Lol

[@jockim100]

Good lesson. Think im in Matt shoes its should work for me. regards from Sweden

[@johnpearson3019]

Another thing to check early is ball position! If you are missing left and right you probably have the ball too far forward! 😊😊

[@rockerdude]

Freaking alignment is a pain to fix. Been working on it for a while especially with driver and just tiny degrees open or closed makes a huge diff

[@richg7264]

I'm totally warming up to Brad..

[@colinhoover3372]

Just watched the chipping lesson video. So that’s how you hit a normal chip (bump and run). How do you hit a higher chip? Not necessarily a flop shot but just a higher chip that lands softer. 😊

[@BonedGolfandFish]

Played 9 today and went 5 over which is a pb for me. Today all I was thinking was hands inside, hit the inside of the ball, and try to draw it. Most greens I’ve ever hit and flyin dead straight. Getting an actual draw is still a rarity but just those 3 things made me gain very noticeable amount of yardage and a dead straight ball flight while feeling like I’m not even swinging as hard.

[@BonedGolfandFish]

I greened my first par 4 with my 4 iron and got a tap in birdie. 3 weeks ago I would miss the entire fairway right and short.

[@ryanprobert5635]

So interesting how quickly Brad saw that, and made 1 thought in Matt's head to change. K.I.S.S. Keep it simple, Scharff.

[@andrewpeterson6275]

Hey Brad could you make a video on how to not thin or chunk shots

[@tom_ace3364]

He said red flag so that was a red flag-Dalke 😂😂

[@justjoddat]

What advice do you have for someone who rolls their wrists inside on takeaway? I tend to do that and never used to. Made my swing super flat and inconsistent. Lots of shanks.

[@GTL77]

I work on alignment a lot because I get like Matt too I think I’m on target but I’m not 😂

[@deecee9948]

Amazing idea would be inviting a random high handicap golfer to help their game.

[@craiggray4255]

Good tips. Need help chipping off these Texas hard pan lies.

[@daniellee2435]

You can also use another golf ball instead of the water bottle.

[@seancunningham4462]

i won’t practise at the range without having the water bottle there (although i use the basket not a bottle)

[@iambecomepaul]

I’ve always felt if Matt could groove one consistent swing, he’d be a force of nature. Matt, himself, says what I think is true: it’s just too inconsistent. Left, right… not the biggest concern. If he had-for instance-a consistent 5 yard fade, it would simply be an issue of lining up and distance. Matt’s swing is potentially very good.

[@Yosick_]

Hold my beer, watch me send that water bottle 50 yards down range.

[@DoNotTrustTrusts]

Hmmm… I’ve seen this character arc before. Signs with Good Good. Starts playing as G’s partner all the time. Begins giving lessons to the homies. Sound familiar anyone?

Yooooo

[@GoodGoodLabs]

Sup

[@markbolton4142]

giving him lessons is like trying to teach a hyperactive poodle that has a nervous condition lol you cannot teach someone that thinks they know what they are doing

[@DoNotTrustTrusts]

Scharf is a Denial Dave in my world. Ask him what his misses are, and he starts talking about how well he shapes shots.

[@DoNotTrustTrusts]

I’ve only seen the first few minutes of this video. But I’m interested to see if Brad tries to fix Matt’s tendency: stuck inside on the back swing. I think if Matt addresses stuck-inside and drills short game, that handicap number at the start of some Good Good majors might plummet.

[@DoNotTrustTrusts]

High handicappers nearly always use putter around the green. Sometimes in situations where chipping is obviously a better solution. If Matt adds crispy chipping AND eliminates a stuck inside backswing, his golf value meal will be a lot more tasty.

[@tevinarchuleta8725]

A lot of unnecessary lag in his swing

[@errata2412]

Brad, help. I keep hitting the ground behind the ball with my driver. I'm not great and hitting the driver bad really racks up the stokes.

[@DoNotTrustTrusts]

Stop playing is my suggestion.

[@errata2412]

thanks@@DoNotTrustTrusts

[@braddalkegolf]

Most likely you’re just hanging on your back foot! Make sure you’re transferring your weight and rotating on the downswing

[@errata2412]

@@braddalkegolf that would make sense. Mentally I think I'm doing that but will focus on the transfer. Probably thinking too much about swinging up on the ball. Thanks Brad!

[@tsbanking]

This Scharff guy is the most annoying person on good good, any time he is talking- it a skip 30 seconds. Just loose him and you'll be good good. Dalke is the man! All labs vids are priceless because of him.

[@user-cc3jc4pb4c]

Sorry, I’m a Matt fan, he’s funny, seems like a good dude, but how has his swing been remotely good?? The last 6 months has been tough to watch.. by far the most “poor” shots across the group. Except Steve but that doesn’t count. Easily a double digit handicap and they play sooo much. Glad he’s inviting a lesson

[@timothynash2993]

The difference I see in Matt and Steve is that Steve will hit a really bad shot from time to time, but also really good shots, where Matt is just hitting semi bad shots every time. So when they play scrambles Steve can contribute but Matt doesn't. Matt does have two hole in ones on par 4 holes, so there is that.

[@C_E_0]

@@timothynash2993I think the holes in one need to be taken out of the conversation because that more speaks to his luck rather than his skill. I’m an 8 handicap, been playing for over 10 years, and I’m still chasing that hole in one feeling. But I’m willing to bet money I’d still beat him in a match

[@Diabolical_Prankster]

Best lesson. I'm using alignment aids anytime I'm not on the course. They're a huge boon.
