It's 6:00 a m on a December day as I watch the video. The season is over for 4 months. I'm reminded that every level of player has to do these basics to their ability. When you hit YOUR wall the tendency is to chase technology or latest guru. We'd all be better served to drilling the basics. Nicely presented 😊

[@golfkid6579]

Sound advice. My son and me will take these one at a time and see how much he understands... it might be a little soon for him yet but I'll keep this video in mind for when the time is appropriate.

[@denisfinnegan7314]

Well, I can attest this program is beneficial. I finished week one a couple days ago and shot 82 mid-week and then 75 on Sunday! This is my lowest round ever. For me the videos and practice guides on posture and grip really helped! Thanks, guys, for your great work. I have been watching your videos for a long time and would offer the break 80 plan with progressive skills building is what I needed.

[@williambryant5012]

Excellent video. Im a high 70s low 80s golfer already, been a while for the 70s, but ive been in a slump lately and been hooking a lot with my 4 iron and higher. Got that fixed with a couple of trips to the range so i figured id come here for some pointers to try and tweak a little more to get me back to playing my better golf. I already do a lot of these myself, but id always been taught to club up in the rough because it would slow your head speed down going through the rough and kill the distance, but the way you guys explained that and the visual aids for me helped a lot. Im never excited to be in the rough, but i will definitely be keeping this in mind the next time i am. Keep up the awesome videos.

[@12sjc90]

Thank you Piers & Andy, great video as always. Can you explain in more detail why spin matters and how it affects the ball flight? I think most amateurs just consider the effects of spin as purely how it lands on the green... including me! More color around that would make your demonstration from the rough/fairway even more useful! Thanks again, Sean

[@justinconnolly8540]

This video changed my life...much appreciated.

[@mattparrish1073]

More loft, steeper attack from the rough was very enlightening. Thanks!

[@spacebum]

The tip on how to play out of the rough is brilliant and explains a few things. I always took an extra club or two from the rough thinking I’m not going to get as good a connection as normal and I always wondered why I’d go sailing over the back. I just kept thinking I’d thinned it. I’m trying this at the weekend. Thanks.

[@chiefsangels3084]

Big thanks to you guys! After several years I finally broke into the 80s consistently and that is due to your videos. Started with the grip tutorials and worked through quite a few of your other videos to reach this goal. Thanks a bunch. Have been recommending your videos to my different playing partners and they are starting to see some results as well.

[@randy7429]

You guys are amazing!!!

[@I.N.D.Y.]

Just think of it if you said OK from this yardage I'll use a 60 and from this yarardage I'll use a 58. And from this real tight lie I might use a 56. It would be a ground Breaking moment on KZbin. You would have the 1st golf video in the history of KZbin to say what degree wedge they're hitting from and from what distance around the green. The reason why I say this cause you guys were undisputably the best golf teaching youtube channel.

[@meandmygolf.]

That's amazing. Great work!!!

[@juanfpaez]

Great video. This is the first time I see the instruction for hitting it out of the rough! I thought it very counter intuitive as usually I do the opposite and add more club instead and swing harder! Would love a video of those types of tricks in unusual situations. Thanks so much!

[@jackstallard]

I’m new to the game of golf but absolutely love it. I’ve never had lessons just practice at the range and watching your videos. I’ve dropped from swinging a 115 to 95. Still along way to go but thanks for the great videos. Please keep them coming. My biggest fail at the moment is chip shots that fall short all the time. I struggle to commit. I have a chart for all my irons and wedges with the distances which is pretty accurate. As soon as it full below full swing to controlled distance I struggle. Any help?

[@Fredrok]

this is exactly me rn. been playin for 2 months decently and this is what fails me, too hard to make the put for par. also if u just look at the person not talking they just be staring aimlessly into the camera

[@KenH-gx5rj]

I also like the Vision54 concept of rating each shot as great, good or good enough. Really takes the negativity out of the shop result. The ‘boxes’ routine rocks!

[@joeperez3520]

In my lesson this past Saturday, my instructor had me doing that same drill with the alignment rod, keeping weight in the middle of the feet. 👍

im a junior golfer and practice a lot and just broke 50 on 9 holes fpor the first time. I know iots not good but guess what! 3 months ago my average was a 73! im practicing hours everyday now because im on summer! thank you guys! (I need help because my long irons are hard to hit)

[@bryetube86]

@Meandmygolf I have a really solid question. I see this a lot in pros and in pierce. Right before my man Pierce hits the shot he always does a little bump squat to the left or to the right to get his body and arms in motion. Which way is he doing the little shimmy move before his shot? Would love a video on this or quick explanation. People don’t understand that this move really helps transition your body and arms in the right motion just before take away

[@keirmitchell7677]

Hey guys, I am currently playing off 16 but feel like a few adjustments in my set up could bring the numbers down! Are you guys planning on doing any more swing analysis videos that I could maybe send in? Love the videos, thanks guys!

[@meandmygolf.]

We will be doing some very soon yes Keir.

[@robmatthews4680]

Good content. Question I have for you...Are you strengthening your grip for your chip shots? Is that to deaden the hands?

[@meandmygolf.]

Hi Rob. No we keep the grip the same but maybe even a little lighter grip pressure.

[@RobertsonDMcI]

Instead of tape or powder to mark the ball strike I sign my initials on the ball with a Sharpie as most golfers do ... making sure the letters are large enough (1"x1")... and face the letters towards the club face. This ink will transfer to the club face every time off the tee and will last even when dry for some time, and if you are playing lift & clean as many of us are forced to do early in the season, align the ball as you did on the tee with the same result. This works for me as I can easily check the ball position on the club face under playing conditions. The ink easily wipes off with a swipe of a finger. Of course this "playing" method does not work with the driving range "bucket" ... without doubt it's the tape or spray.

[@ohwowthatsgood]

Great video.

[@meandmygolf.]

Thanks. Hope it's useful to you.

[@seancook2264]

Break 80 occasionally and often shoot between 80-83. Typically a double bogie brain explosions on each 9 cost me the difference!

[@RobinMungallFitness]

HAHA me too.

[@peartfaldo]

better than 4 separate bogeys.

[@charlconradie7245]

That is literally me. I play around 80-85 and the only reason its not between 78-80 is because of like 2 double bogeys

[@daviddunrud9228]

Sounds familiar. I've broken 80 several times, but never on a tough course. Last year, played a good course and shot 81 with a quad and a double on the back. 37-44.

[@NobodyGotTimeForThat]

I'm a mid 80's golfer (79 lowest score) and struggle the most with approach shots 100+ out and putting.. but most of all its putting. I avg around 26 per round and would really like to get it under 22.. I do realize that I need to start leaving myself within 10ft for this to happen which brings me back to approach... the struggle is real lol

[@croccjam]

I appreciate the videos. I just started breaking 90. Normally with high 80s. I feel very far away from ever breaking 80.

[@Goodgolfer2323]

In the matter of one day I broke 100 and 90 and shot ten over par at my local course and it felt amazing. I’ve come to see if I can break 80 next

[@Golfing-AddiCt]

So many golfers would majorly benifits from doing the plank on a regular basis to help strengthen their core muscles.... Such a simple thing to do and it has major benefits to the posture in the golf swing and would help them to maintain that neutral spin/pelvis position.

[@Sir_Godz]

I would say take advantage of short/easy courses as training courses. Great opportunities for extra tee shots with irons or hybrids that you may never get to hit on full courses without "short changing" your driver opportunities. Lots of practice for using those seldom used clubs to set layups for preferred wedges and scoring irons. Doesn't hurt at all that the prices are usually very friendly and the pace is liberal as is the time commitment.

[@kevincranfield2471]

Is there anyway to test my ball turf connection on a driving range. Unfortunately my driving range does not have grass to play off? So you think spraying foot spray on the floor infront would work..

[@alancunnane3065]

Something that works really well is a strip of duct tape just behind where you want to be striking the turf. If you catch the tape it ends up on your clubhead. Less likely to leave a lot of mess behind on the mat too!

[@meandmygolf.]

You can still use the towel Kevin. That will work just fine to let you know if you are getting ball first.

Loved the email you sent me! great marketing idea

[@deadlymantis4210]

The lowest I'd hit was an 81.. I built a wedge matrix from 30yards to a full PW with my 52, 56, 60 degree and PW. Now for any distance between 30yrds and a full PW, I have 4 different shots with different lofts and roll outs to choose from, depending on what's needed. I Also got a putt out mat to drill my putts at home.. And now a lot more confident 6ft and in. ..........Shot a 77 (6+) Nett 63 off a 14Hcp last weekend.

[@duduOmag]

@@JimboSRP Get any putter that gives you confidence ;) new stuff doesn't mean good stuff. I play an old Karsten Ping, and I have a great distance control with it because it suits me well, and It gives me confidence when I hit it. As simple as that.

[@Master...deBater]

@@duduOmag: I have a vintage Zing and Pal...both in mint condition. My NOS Zing still has a bright square on the sole where the original sticker protected it from patina. I prefer the Zing due to the heavy toe, and rear shaft ...but the Pal is pretty sweet also. I'm not as big of a fan of the Anser...they stand a little too upright for me. I find it hilarious that virtually every non-mallet putter made today is an almost exact replica of one of these three designs. Hell...Scotty Cameron's made MILLIONS off of Solheim's designs. The man was an absolute genius!!!

[@TheGunnyUSMC]

The problem I have with breaking 80 is inconsistant distance and direction of the ball. I hit the ball and guess where and how far it will go. Please do a video on these two issues. Thank you.

[@theamaturegolfer7798]

I’m just on the cusp of it. I’ve only done it once. I’ll get some birdies and pars some bogies in a round consistently but I always end up having 2 bad holes, a double or a triple. It’s so frustrating.

I’ve tried to change my grip several times, gave it a good go for about 2 months. My scores jumped by 10 strokes. Shanks and balls that started so far right off the tee it was embarrassing. I know a nuetral grip is better than a strong one, but I just can never make it happen.

[@simonbaigent7202]

I thought you were going to say ‘you need to be careful on grass as the chemicals in the spray could ruin the grass’..... but of course it was more about the damp grass cleaning some of the spray off 🤪😂

[@williambjerno6941]

What stops me from Breaking 80 is that i am still and junior and i do NOT hit the Ball very far. That means that i tend to have end hybrid or and long iron in to the pin, and I am just struggling on the long irons my shorter iron are perfect and I can control them how I want to. It’s just the longer irons can you please make a video about that. Thank you on the good video:) // 15 hcp junior

What do you do when you find yourself on a very hard surface like maybe a walking path that the dirt is just completely solid? It messes with my head and I'm almost always high on the ball.

Broke 80 for the first time on July 8th, 2020 with a 77. (Farmington Hills Golf Club, 71.1/134. 6413 yards). I have the back 9 on my channel if you want to check it out. Ever since then I’ve done so 6 more times, 3 that same year and 3 this year already all in tournament play! . It’s a huge weight off your shoulders once you accomplish it.

[@brianyong8274]

Even after I hit a good drive and iron shot, I struggle with my short game, especially chipping, which is very frustrating.

You're lucky...poor chipping is a lot easier to fix than poor ball striking. Decide on a comfortable and repeatable technique that gives you good distance control and role out. Then practice until it's grooved!
