PGA Pro Course Management VS MID HANDICAP Golf Swing...

[@5wayno]

Just come across this video and I can honestly say this has got to be the best advice I've seen on KZbin , as I'm fairly new to golf and a 19 handicapper I will be doing this at the weekend in the comps I'm playing and see where it gets me 👍👏

[@garymartingolf]

Thanks for watching, appreciated 👌🏼

[@trevorhennessy8154]

Great video guys

[@Uptonspark80]

Great idea for a video gal and just goes to show, don’t walk up and whack it. Take a moment to think about what you’re capable of and what you can achieve. Bit by bit it will knock shots of your score and bring down the handicap

[@tommiethatcher7265]

What an outstanding course management video Gaz and a video that any golfer can learn from. Very well played James it was a pleasure to watch

[@GolfAddyventures]

Top man Tommie! 😊

[@johnhoyle4393]

wowww great video gary some great tips on course management . and well played James 👏👏👏👏

[@johnarmstrong1452]

I have been working on reducing my handicap all summer. Watching this vlog is a great help. I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge to improve all aspects of the game. Your knowledge of the game is very valuable which I definitely will take on to the course. I like how you get James to think about each of his shots. This will definitely help me. I look forward to your next vlog with James. Great vlog Gary! 👍

[@garymartingolf]

Thanks John. Im not saying everyone is guilty, but I know I am, sometimes I overthink the swing on the course rather than being more focused on course management.

[@ronchappell216]

I enjoyed this video. I'm glad that James had such a great round, but - as a high handicapper - I do think that when you get into a more constructive and positive head space everything just starts to go better. That feeling that "I'm scoring great and it's all going so easy!". Thanks for the great video!

[@garymartingolf]

Thanks Ron 👌🏼

[@stuartmcinnes2903]

James will be single figures next year no issues. He’s clear receptive to advice and wants to learn. Golf is a game of recovery. You’ll only hit 18 shots a round that are an actual success, no matter what level you’re at, the ones you get in the hole! Everything else is plotting your way there.

[@GolfAddyventures]

Thanks for the kind words Stuart, really appreciate it. Love the 18 shot success thought process too, it’s what makes this game so addictive 😊

[@donnawhitfield6820]

Great round James. Super coaching Gary

[@garymartingolf]

Thanks Donna 👌🏼

[@GolfAddyventures]

Thank Donna! Gary certainly knows what he’s doing 👍🏼

[@philipschultz8229]

Loved this video thanks guys

[@GolfAddyventures]

Really glad you enjoyed Phillip 👍🏼 thanks for watching!

[@andybt3989]

Definite future single figures handicap!

[@GolfAddyventures]

That’s the goal Andy! Thanks mate

[@peterlightowler3807]

James will be single figures by this time next year. Good stuff boys 👍

[@GolfAddyventures]

Love that positivity Peter! Thank you 🙏🏼

[@neilmackison1329]

Great job Gaz. He just needs a gaping session and also a wedge distance session to fully tune him in. On the 8th hole that you played when he was doing his own course management my only small criticism would be that he appeared to aim his approach shot at the flag rather than slightly left which is why he missed to the right. Great U&D though!! Look forward to more of this series.

[@garymartingolf]

I completely agree with distance gapping. Great point yes, I noticed that now you mentioned it 👌🏼

[@GolfAddyventures]

Great feedback, thanks Neil 🫡

[@markwright4822]

Keeps going like that and he will be single figures in no time , keep at it

[@GolfAddyventures]

Love that! Thanks Mark

[@joestuart914]

He should have used no than a PW out of the longer rough Gary, back onto the fairway in position to hit a better shot to the green, IN LONG ROUGH LOST IS YOUR FRIEND, 8 iron in longer rough shuts down the face too easily. From the par 3, shot short onto the green, a chip and run would have been better choice, than a lofted shot, hit it into the bank to take the power off, the ball should then release onto the green, IMHO. Percentage shot and a better miss than a 56 degree. James needs a bit of short game practice as you said Gary, hitting off the back foot, hands forward, rather than using the bounce to make the shot easier and get more spin on the shot. James has good fundamentals and ability to become a very good golfer.

[@KentnDebi]

James must be a big boy Gaz, he makes you look short! Great advice there. I'm sure course management can save James a bucket full of shots. Level fives is always a good starting point for a player of James' standard as it takes the pressure off his game. He definitely has the ability to play 'bogey golf' Good series Gaz 👍

[@garymartingolf]

Thanks bud. He is, he can play! I think he’s about 6.4,

[@KentnDebi]

​@@garymartingolfD'ya know what Gaz? I've just watched this again. James did so well! Something I'd not really given enough weight to was how totally relaxed James was and how he absolutely accepted that his shot shape is a fade and he embraced that totally...he played some awesome shots and putted extremely well, not for a mid handicap, for a golfer of any standard. Well played again James 👏👏👏

[@Carl-s3h]

Great stuff gaz well worth watching

[@garymartingolf]

Thanks 👌🏼

[@FrederickLeeCarr]

Great advice as always….. really looking forward to seeing you at Rotherham brilliant addition to the club

[@garymartingolf]

Thank you, excited to start 👌🏼

[@jamesmatthews2224]

Great course management video Gaz 😁

[@garymartingolf]

Thanks James

[@AnotherLostBall]

Great video. I can learn a lot from this …. Or rather, I should learn a lot from this 😉 As soon as the score starts going well I suddenly think I’m a cross between Seve and Bryson …. It doesn’t end well 🤦‍♂️

[@garymartingolf]

Hahahaha 😃 Course management goes through the window, and you go all out attack 😃😅😅

Very good video gaz

[@petekenny3774]

Agree gaz...i use the tee bix all the time drawer of ball i tee up other side par 3 if it was me on video

[@garymartingolf]

Nice 👌🏼

[@keith1704]

Great video, it’s a simple game we make hard🤣

[@garymartingolf]

It is, but even with perfect course management, sometimes we just don’t turn up 😫😂

[@grahamdodsworth6871]

Great stuff

[@JeffBoothman]

Excellent course management well done I think he could be single digit in 2 years with your help.

[@GolfAddyventures]

It’s an interesting concept isn’t it! Fingers crossed, hope you enjoy watching the journey 😀

[@johnjohn1cooer]

Good video, really enjoyed your coaching and suggestions.

[@garymartingolf]

Thanks 👌🏼

[@royclose946]

Well done gaz 😊

[@The-OC]

I'd definitely tee up on the right if I faded it, I'd have picked James's tee and ball out and put it a foot away from the marker, to emphasise what you was saying. Then on the dog leg right hole, I'd have had James tee up on the very left hand side, to open up the view of the hole as much as possible.. What a big difference between how well James has played this evening and a few months ago, it's very impressive.!!

[@garymartingolf]

Some good points there, I get your point on the dog leg right 👌🏼

[@SteveFromStockport]

Gary Barlow's looking well! 😂😂😂

[@dazaaw]

Some 8 iron.

[@petekenny3774]

He needs to learn a 6 for him is bloody good on some par4s hell get 2 pts move on

[@petekenny3774]

Gaz .im 7.2 hcap on the really tough steoke holes on my course i wont tee off with driver cocker ..hybrid 5 wood play for bogey or make a par move on as ive beat the course 5 for 2pts move on 👍👍 theres a great skill in not pulling driver out mate

[@garymartingolf]

I wish more golfers would play like this, it’s great way to nearly guarantee 2 points and move on.

[@brianmurray4199]

I feel his pain. I recently shot 88, 51 and 37 the 37 i had triple so i was basically 2 under for 8 holes. Frustrating game

[@lexxwhite747]

Come with me for a round Gaz, tell me whatever you want, and I'll find a way to f#@% it all the way up mate😂

[@garymartingolf]

lol 😂

[@patricksweeney8316]

Needs to work on how far he hits each club.

[@dazaaw]

He’s a good player will soon be single figure

[@GolfAddyventures]

Thanks man 😎

[@garymartingolf]

He can hit a ball, loads of potential 👌🏼

[@mastermanningtkd]

How talk is he? He must be 6’3?

[@GolfAddyventures]

I’m 6’5 mate so fairly tall 👍🏼

[@derekshorrock594]

Don't wear a glove at all

[@petekenny3774]

Gaz..get that driver off him ...i guarantee he looses all his shots off the tee

[@GolfAddyventures]

I’m actually the opposite, I can drive it fairly well but from 100yds in and putting is my weakness at the moment
