CHIPPING | Paddy's Golf Tip #1 | Padraig Harrington

[@davemc1207]

Padraig is an absolute hero for weekend warriors, other Pro’s wouldn’t do this detailed lesson unless someone was stumping up payola. Bravo Padraig you deserve all accolades that come your way. Pure gold advice.

[@stephenmyerscough9478]

My pitchings come on a bundle thanks to Padraig.

Saw him playing yesterday, I told him I watched these vids,right away he responds to me mid round " I hope they are helping you!" I almost fainted, what a nice solid guy who actually cares! Do you think he needs to do this? Hope he wins tomorrow...

Ireland’s greatest sportsman ever.. natural ability wise he was average but it was his determination, work ethic and stubbornness that propelled him to #2 in world rankings in his prime.. on top of all that he’s a typical Dubliner, engaging, funny and as we say in Ireland “s the craic … a true gentleman and 🇮🇪 is very proud of the Stackstown golfer

The very best advice I have ever been given for short game practice. Never practice the bounce..... I love it...

I’ve struggled with chipping yips for 4 years, this helped me more than any other gobbledegook from other social media want to be pros. This is honest no frills great advised help immensely. What a great brain, this man has and able to communicate to us amateurs.

[@jnvc7270]

I can't believe I'm getting lessons from Pádraig Harrington. One of the world's greatest players is actually the best teacher I've seen on KZbin. Fantastic tips, well explained and demonstrated. Thank you so much Pádraig. Hope you have a great 2021. 👍

[@TraderACX]

My chipping has been awful for a while. Been practicing a lot in the garden. Very inconsistent shots, then we had the hot weather & the ground turned very hard that i was thinning shots 50% of the time. Just watched this video, went outside & hit about 95% of my chips perfectly. Can't believe we've got a major champion on youtube giving us lessons but I'm so thankful there is!

[@reedhornsby2420]

Very rare to find a player who is so good at teaching as well as playing. This is really good concise information.

[@Mr.Big33]

What a great champion he is, revealing his experiences to the public. Lucky us.

[@ruatoomey9107]

I can’t believe this has come up, fair play Padraig . You’re always giving back but this is so valuable to the average golfer. This is gold everyone. I predict 1 million subscribers inside a year. Chipping has been my saving grace on the course and now I know why. I’ve actually been doing a lot right. Oh my god I can’t wait for a driving lesson. I simply can’t hit a fairway with a wood . If I do it’s luck. That’s my golf fault, stand on a tee box and have know idea where the ball will end up.

[@jonrizo900]

WOW!! First time i've ever heard COMMON SENSE tips from a real pro!! Never felt right about 'trying to use the bounce'!! Such a great video. thanks, Padraig!!

[@seantracy5624]

This man is a great teacher who's able to speak off the cuff naturally and informatively. Great to get such great coaching from one of my faves.

[@AnthonyDavid59]

As juniour golfers, we would spend ages messing around on the practice range with our chipping, including "vertical" flop shots. In a round, there would be at least one chip-in between us. Decades later I now have time to play regularly, but that short game skill has left me. I was looking at buying a set of wedges to replace my 30 year old ones, because "it must be these clubs :D". These drills make so much sense. I look forward to putting them into practice.

[@CraigalFun]

That bounce explanation is GOLD

[@athar786100]

Agreed!

[@OrvinReyes]

[@SMB071]

Padraiig, Thanks for giving us free coaching tips from a master craftsman. From a 51 years old Scot in Abu Dhabi taking up the game again after more than 10 years without a round... you’re making the journey easier. Easier, not easy. ;-)

[@aansari98]

WOW - This was essentially 4 lessons from a world class golf teacher rolled into 20 minutes - so lets see around $3000 worth of instruction for free and entertaining too. I had never heard the explanation of setting up to the ball the way it was explained here - to ensure a ball first hit and tried it in my last two rounds of golf and doubled my up and down % and didnt have one mis hit chip - Thank You Padraig.

[@titleistfann1237]

This instruction video is literally all any amateur golfer needs for chipping. This will absolutely take strokes off your handicap and make the short game fun again.

[@anthonygittens1479]

I have watched many golf instruction videos, I am 76 y.o. but Padraig’s explanations make understanding so much easier, no fluff or hard to understand concepts, Sir, I wish you the best.

[@leighjohnharvey]

Never got the using bounce, try using bounce in uk winters saturated mud. 6 months the year that technique of using bounce means complete lack of confidence

[@Tyler-bb5nb]

I watched another one of his videos on slicing and the importance of your hands in the golf swing. I went to the range and hit 95% straight shots. I was always told to focus on my body, hips, shoulders, etc, and never really on my hands. This man is detailed and a great teacher. Another excellent video. Job well done Padraig!!

I really like this advice. There is lots of chipping advice out there and a lot promotes using bounce but as Padraig says dont practice to use it, its just there to save you if you hit it bad. That is the way im gona approach it from now on. Thanks Padraig.

[@davidmulgrew5077]

Love your teachings PH. I think your no nonsense approach and the fact that you were a people’s champ makes it really easy to believe and trust what you say.

[@michaelhepworth962]

I’ve watched thousands of hours of golf KZbin videos and these lessons are by far the best. Previous to these I found the gravity golf KZbin the best but they never went into the side bend during the full swing. Paddy is able to explain the swing in amazing detail that is easy to follow. I’ve recommenced his videos to all my friends.

[@mehtapun80]

Cannot begin to say how great and genuine these videos are. Despite being an open champion your tips are so simple to understand for an average amateur vs all the technical stuff being dished out elsewhere. Thank you Mr Harrington !

[@RajKumar-zm4ll]

Thank you finally a golfer who has explained how to do it very comprehensively. Please keep making more vids like this one

[@alistairs8495]

I'm returning to this video after having not seen it in months. Immediately, I recognize aspects of the lesson I previously couldn't even comprehend, being limited by my skill level. There is simply an astounding amount of quality content presented here. Cheers.

This is an incredible video lesson from Padraig, he explains the myth of using bounce which others continually talk about. His golfing exploits are not recognised sufficiently, he is a great golfer and wonderful person, thank you.

[@knightwriter2989]

I average low 80's because my chipping is so horrible. I can drive it 280+ but around the green I am just God-awful. This video may be the best chipping video on the Internet!!! Thank you Paddy for such great instruction! And it's even better watching a guy who is one of the greatest of all time. Not some hacker in his garage.

[@TheNYgolfer]

Absolutely amazing. Other pros would put out a DVD and charge a ridiculous price. I can see and feel his enthusiasm. He is really enjoying giving back.

[@y5jml]

Absolute legend, to give up his time to make first rate instruction videos like this and pass on the information we can all benefit from is amazing thank you it works for me

[@COneillCodes]

This is the best golf video on youtube hands down. Padraig you've changed my game from dreading skulling and chunking chip shots to absolutely jumping at the chance to get up and down around the green.

[@ku3325ku]

Not a lot of pros let alone major winners give or can give lessons like this. You make it simple for anyone to follow along to. Good luck with the channel!!!

[@marcjvr]

Wow this is just what I needed. My short game was always good but then I got sucked into chipping with no wrists, then using the bounce too much, then ball position drifted too far back when the bounce was failing me, and I lost all confidence. This is exactly what I have been looking for. No overly technicaly mumbo jumbo that has been killing me in the past. Thank you Padraig!!

[@jamesrichardson3500]

I'm EXACTLY the same, I think this will help build that confidence up again after a few hours. Good luck.

[@davidallsopp3645]

Absolutely helpful. I have been struggling with my chipping. Very helpful!

[@completeamateurgolfer]

Ok Paddy, first, thank you for the great free tips - you don't have to do this, so it's so appreciated. The bounce info was 'light switching' (or 'ground breaking' would be more appropriate :) )! I have been struggling with trying to work the bounce on a tight lie, but I usually skull it with my 60/10. So I will not try to hit the ground first on my next round, and concentrate on ball first. I will also hit the ground ahead of the ball with my practice swings, since I wasn't doing that before. The other thing I picked up on was how the club head will return to the line of the sternum. This is going to reinforce my positioning and swing for every shot from now on. This year I've got my scores into the 90's consistently, so hoping to get into the 80's within a few months. 65 but still athletic from years of soccer! Thanks again from Vancouver, B.C.

[@completeamateurgolfer]

I used your advice today on my practice swings and tried to brush the turf a few inches in front of where the ball would be and it really helped when I hit the ball - made good contact and travelled the distance (10-20 yd shots off medium lies). My mid iron game let me down today though... :)

What an absolute legend, great tutorial

[@671james]

"I don't practice to use the bounce..." and "the bounce saves you" are the best ways to understand bounce for me. Thanks for this. The other "PGA pros" make great videos but an ACTUAL PGA Tour player giving coaching tips is probably the best ever! If I may make a suggestion, I (and probably your subscribers) would love to see the shots simultaneously from behind. Good luck and more power!
