I Took A New Golfer From Beginner To Par In 8 Hours

Appreciate y'all watching! Hit that subscribe button if you enjoyed. Despite shrimping🦐 every putt Michael's game made some serious improvements. Proud of that guy!

[@waffleninja1000]

Getting a par is good. The fact you drove the green on your first round of golf is even more insane. You're going to be a great golfer. It's a game you can play for the next 50 years. You're just getting started.

[@SimpleTimesYT]

Ur insane dude lol. Crazy impressive. I had a super dumb smile on my face the hole time watching this video, so wholesome and enjoyable hahaha. Next video, a birdie?!?!!?

[@Dee2thekae031]

I just want to say. This is one of the most influential videos for golf I have ever seen. It shows the raw emotions of golf, how hard and easy it could be. How positive and negative it could be. And that no matter what, anything good or bad could happen the next whole. So just have fun and play golf. I absolutely loved this.

[@JoshMayerGolf]

A rollercoaster of emotion for sure haha Appreciate the love!

[@OliveLube]

[@bcsolorza]

I loved it too. I've never been on a golf course before either and this makes me want to give it a go. See if I can get me a par using his tips.

[@EricTheGolfFiend]

LOL that driver sequence on the range was absurd🤣

[@BestuffM]

7:53 😂

[@TheAdambendor]

broooo 😭😭😭

[@JackMills003]

Yes it was. Bro seemed very uncoachable and completely unable to own up to messing up.

[@davass82]

This is the best way to learn golf. Most people starting out go the driving range for their first year or so and ingrain bad habits into their swing before learning the correct ways of swinging. You then spend the next few years trying to undo that first year. You're literally saving yourself years of practice by starting with someone who knows what their doing teaching you.

[@B-DINO]

Yeah exactly, you also don't learn course management, awkward ball placement where you're standing with the ball higher or lower on a hill, hitting from bunkers, uphill/downhill distances etc. You can be a pro on the driving range and lose every ball in your bag on the course, leaving divots a groundhog would blush over. Learn swing mechanics on the range and then put them into practice on the course. It's daunting when you're new thinking everyone will laugh you off the course for slicing a ball into the woods but that was never the case for me. My first time golfing was in a 4 man scramble tournament that wasn't a shotgun start so there was like 100 people out there watching...of course I was the first to tee off and I hooked it hard onto the patio of the clubhouse. Of course there was laughing and chuckling but nobody had anything negative to say. I learned when that happens everyone is just glad it wasn't them and the embarrassment is 100% internal, everyone has seen horrible shots and they're just out there having fun enjoying themselves. New golfers expect everyone to have their nose in the air judging your every move but I've found it to be completely opposite. Most people started in the same position and love to share their knowledge and love to see you progress, so learning on the course should be embraced and encouraged.

[@sharpersflorist]

Michaels energy drove this whole vid. Couldn’t have gotten a better guy for this

[@GolfPokerTaylor]

Josh, I watch A LOT of YT golf videos and I’m honestly putting this as a top 5 all-time entertaining video. Incredible stuff, congrats buddy!

[@JoshMayerGolf]

Means a lot brother!

[@bearwitness3153]

Driving the green in his first ever golf round is really badass. Great content 👍🏻

[@whatdudeokman6481]

We went from beginners luck with the first couple swings on the range, to feeling the pressure, trying to hard, "tap it in" moments, couple great drives, golf fatigue, to finishing strong. Great video

[@JoshMayerGolf]

Appreciate you brother!

[@hunterhill4043]

24:37 “don’t think about it too much” -proceeds to think about it for 15 seconds

[@TreeShark]

Thinks about it for 1,000 seconds

[@brandonmyers2449]

That was awesome! That was so much fun. Great story telling. My first time out to a course was last year. I had put in tons of hours at top golf to learn how to play then finally went to a course by myself. I was paired up with a dad and his two sons, i was so nervous, I told them i've never played before and then went out and CRUSHED my first drive. They were impressed, i didn't par the hole but was pretty close. Then i didn't hit a good drive the rest of the day.

[@JoshMayerGolf]

Appreciate you brother! All it takes is one good shot to keep you coming back for more haha

[@sanderstar1000]

[@dustintoland2581]

[@brandoncoros182]

This was amazing. You need to bring this guy back and do more videos. Loved all the energy and excitement!

his pure joy is the only thing that kept me to the end, with his attitude this man would be successful at anything in life.

[@garydavis8213]

Love this video. Michael’s enthusiasm is so fun to see. I hope he sticks with it. Oh, and get that 5 iron reshafted!

[@JoshMayerGolf]

Appreciate you Gary! We’ll get that 5 iron fixed don’t you worry

[@joedavey84]

Crazy how athletic skill really does translate. He picked up striking irons well so quickly. It’e take the average person his age like 2 months to hit those shots.

[@HeroSavior]

22:32 was me just about amonth ago i hadnt played in over 10 years rebought some golf finally and went out. and when you are trying to spot a ball you hit and you cant quite find it only to see it sitting somewhere perfectly is such a rush of emotions it feels incredible

[@GimmeAweapon]

Recently moved up in the company I’ve worked at for 8 years into an upper management level position and as it turns out all upper management employees have a golfing tournament once a year with a few of our customers and I have never picked up a club in my life lol. Just got a set of clubs and have started going to the driving range so that hopefully I won’t make a fool of myself. This video really helps motivate me! Thanks for the video

[@Elof_94]

First of all I just want to say awesome video and what a rollercoaster haha! Second, quick reminder that Michael is making his first golf game ever which means he should be at 54HCP and then make 3 golfcorse-bogey's is just crazy. For him, it's 3 Eagles (HCP counted). Well done Michael and hope u keep it going, and what a coach Josh! 😄

[@JoshMayerGolf]

Didn’t even think about that. Michael is a protégé

[@rdml1107]

I care about golf 0%, but this was so entertaining. Was on the edge of my seat. Heard about it on a Ghostrunners podcast episode and thought I’d give it a watch. 10/10 content 👏🏻

[@IddyX]

I won't lie I'm high right now, but this video was ABSOLUTE CINEMA!!! The story built up beautifully and the comedy intertwines itself within the banter, it is splendid and a piece to remember. I'm forever grateful I got to see this masterpiece!

What an awesome video, inspiring and had me riding that rollercoaster with yall. Great student and GREAT teacher! Dudes gonna have an amazing golf game after this, incredible example of the beautiful game of golf.

[@davidschlichting5203]

As someone who started Golf this month, I have rarely seen such a relatable video. I very quickly got the hang of my iron swing, hitting the ball very well for a complete beginner, and I very much not got the hang of my Driver swing, where my only range session so far looked very similar to Michael's. I'm definitely putting better than him in this video, but what broke my immersion finally is him driving a damn Par 4 lmao. He's able to hit the Driver almost double my distance! Anyway lovely video to watch as someone who's currently in similar shoes to Michael's. Subscribed.

[@Acidmonk603]

Where can I find that training grip? Just getting back into golf after basically a 15 year break. That looks like it could be really helpful for me and my son who is just starting to play.

That is one of the best courses to learn to play golf, Lake Park Golf Course in Lewisville. I use to work there through college and it’s where I really learned to play. Great video man and way to go on getting Michael to par a hole!

[@JoshMayerGolf]

Big fan of lake park! Thanks for the support brother

[@Billionaireben]

I couldn't do driving, my back was in agony after each practice session; this was at 32. It's good to know that a D1 athlete right out of college had similar experiences. My result, a semester focusing mainly on the 7 iron; 1 time on a golf course and I got it near the hole on 1 stroke on a par 3 (the teacher was the only other one to make the green and his rolled off.) The last hole I pulled a 'tin cup' but the teacher didn't want to waste more golf balls. 1 good hit that session.

[@Billionaireben]

PS, what was his total score?

[@grdfishing3326]

[@sonhan5214]

Lake park is a very easy course, but to get a park and 4 or 5 bogies on your first time out is pretty impressive. Also saw you started out at Bridlewood, my home course, and where my kids get lessons. Seen a lot of you tube golfers there, like Luke Kwon and the Good Good guys.

I never played golf until i bartended at a course. My backround was boxing fairly competitively my whole childhood. I played with my boss on a day off and ended up beating him by two strokes and after that he always wanted me out playing on my days off. Swinging a club is a lot like throwing a punch in how you transfer force and the hand eye translates very well.
