[@ericsmith9023]

I’m always blown away with the information content of this channel. Hope we get to see more of Gareth soon!

[@clubchampionmedia]

👍 we filmed two more videos with Gareth on Monday so stay tuned!

I love how Gareth just nonchalantly revolutionises how the boys play the short game

[@fuzzman777]

That dude is a wizard. Such a short insight into what a proper putting lesson can give you. Epic.

[@ironmaiden5584]

Let's get Gareth some Galvin Green shirts and let's make him the 3rd member of the TXG youtube channel. Outstanding work boys! Raflewski tour putting mat on its way!

[@andy.robinson]

Straight to the point. Bang, bang, bang... Brilliant tips! Thanks!

[@waynebailey9123]

Best putting video I have ever viewed. Great job.

[@GarretGuerrero]

Gareth is the best. Knows his stuff and is able to describe it to others with ease!

[@ryang1910]

These are my favorite shows you do. Because of this Channel I started following Gareth. I watch anything he puts out. During the golf season I subscribe his channel. I even own his ruler and putting mat. The great golfer, fitter, teacher combo works great. I learned more today about the putting Matt I own. Thankful for this video

[@blakeg.1093]

Best putting video yet, by far. Great job!

[@MrBBHHBBHH]

Most important part of the game. Thanks TXG for this video!

[@idontwantahandle12345]

Bingo! These are things we can understand and do at home. Helping the lockdown blues Boys! Thanks.

[@dw4421]

I took a putting class recently and I COMPLETELY understood what you mean by the dotted lines curve right/left. I never realized those three factors could be the cause for my misperception of a straight line. I got fed up and decided to step behind the ball, facing the pin and line my putter up like that.

[@emlynhughes4695]

Had a lesson with Raflewski school in the PGA Slieve Russell here in Ireland. Fantastic. Highly recommend

[@karlcremin8293]

Brilliant stuff. One of the best putting mats I’ve ever seen. I don’t think Gareth gets enough credit for the quality of his products.

[@jamessimpson4862]

Great vid that, the first dot drill for calibrating your perception is going straight into practise!

[@edmod526]

The amount of great information in a 12 minute video is unbelievable !!! I was booked with John before Christmas and then the lock down . Can't wait to get in there !!

[@braddenike2795]

Amazing attention to detail with Gareth as always. Top notch content here lads!

[@josetomas7980]

Great video Ian, i will now draw some lines on my putting carpet😀👍

[@whiskerrub]

Deep Freeze Cure putting is the one thing you can always pretty much practice indoors without damaging the ceilings. Love the ideas and variety Gareth puts into these products. Keeper repeat video here! 👍

[@underpar3030]

The distance from the ball in relation to pulling and pushing putts is really eye opening. Playing partners have commented how close I usually am to the ball and my miss is usually a pull. Very cool little session

[@geemac979]

What a great putting aid and mix of drills. Great concept Gareth

[@cubuffs5601]

I hit like before I watched it. That's how good Gareth is!

[@alexandergibbs6986]

I absolutely love the instructional videos

[@Lightandluck]

Fantastic insight into sorting out my putting. I have my L.A.B putter arriving Friday and will use all these tips while in lockdown to transform my putting!....Fingers crossed!

[@paulkoppenheffer5323]

Great stuff. The head tilt is so true, you don't even realize you're doing it. Really have to go through your check points to get it right and ingrain it. Thank you to TXG and Gareth for such informative and insightful content.

[@trevornorth2273]

Tried adjusting my distance and head position right after this and this has changed my putting dramatically! What a game changer

[@garyhovey9305]

Fantastic video! The short game is so important

[@Proof2k21]

Thanks lads for an awesome and helpful video. I’m officially a proud owner of the Raflewski Tour Putting 👍🏻. Keep them coming 🙌🏼

[@DaveFogel]

This is an excellent video. Great job Guys!

[@robertbogdan7058]

I'm going to bookmark this video and refer to it often over the season. Well done guys! Thank you.

[@-What-are-your-thoughts]

Never ever thought about forearm alignment, I also had my left forearm low. His eye for the smallest detail is impressive. Thanks for the video along with the short game, it has already helped me tremendously. The Pro Putting Trainer would help with this alignment issue. Ordered one in early January, can’t wait for it.

[@scottgobel5023]

This is awesome. This guy is incredible.

[@hehateme2812]

You guys have the best timing! I'm at the dealership getting my car services and now I get to enjoy the time waiting with a GREAT VIDEO! THANKS!!!

[@charliecanessa1461]

GREAT!!! One of the best video content in a long time. At least from my.point of view.

[@scottyeaman6307]

Definitely getting one of these mats!!👌

[@bloombeards812]

Great video and this mat is really well thought out. Well done ian and gareth

[@dlwitthoft]

This is a 10/10 video. So simple but these are game changing tips

[@colinschrank5576]

Love the mat, as last season I struggled with putter and these little drills will definitely help starting now before our season starts here.

[@coopercecile5328]

Ended up buying his putting matt and discs. Thanks for the insight.

[@guybrown1865]

This was the best drills I have ever seen!

[@markroper1956]

Great vid... my favourite youtube channel.

[@myleshancock9164]

Whoa I just realized my putting mat has those dots in the middle so I can check my vision towards the hole. Fantastics tips gents, thank you! 😊

[@jona823a]

Top class content! Both videos with Reflewski have been incredibly insightful - thank you very much TXG and Gareth.

[@wezdunne8057]

Been dying to get to the new Raflewski academy here in ireland but unfortunately still in lockdown. Some fantastic facilities there

[@jakebreathes2387]

Great video. Really valuable stuff

[@troyrambo6804]

The forearm alignment was very informative. I noticed immediately that on his putts his takeaway had very little arch and the toe looked slightly outside . After he changed his right arm, it has a slight arc to the inside. Good feedback. Like the putting mat too.

[@chrisfreitag2603]

Wow, what great information and such helpful instruction from Gareth. Simply fabulous.

[@lakedog3616]

After watching the dissection of putting, it’s amazing to me that anyone ever makes ANY putt.

[@reidbrian08]

Awesome topic!!

[@quettfenn]

This was an outstanding video today boys. Really great insights from Gareth 👍

[@michaelhammond7483]

Excellent stuff TXG and Gareth, especially the dot alignment segment. It's hard to get the ball going where you want it to go when you're not seeing the correct path. Ian's set up is wonderfully sound, but (I hope referring to another video as allowed) Mike Malaska has a vid developing the same concept that Gareth is describing here. The only difference is that Malaska suggests not all golfers have the same position re: eyes over ball, that Ian has. The concept is the same, seeing the dots line up, but that different golfers will have different positions (inside/over/outside) the ball which allows them to see the line correctly. Were I back in Canada, I'd be picking up that mat, great job Gareth.

[@divaymittal9144]

This is a great video to get develop some fundamentals while putting, especially how you set up to the balls. Great putting drills and just an amazing video overall. Well done TXG and Gareth!!!

[@peterfebbraio250]

Great vid guys... this stuff will work nicely with my Putting Guru. Keep the putting videos coming.

[@andrewooo001]

Your content is always amazing, but boy this was one of the best ones so far!!! 👏👏

[@georgepyle4244]

This is mind blowing im goin to the corse tomorrow snow or no snow n trying these

[@farmtigervbmichaelwoody9430]

Already ordered my Raflewski Mat and discs!!

[@DjDaveVA]

Fantastic!

[@michaelmccarthy5841]

I have a puttout with their mat, but I like the extras Gareth’s has... just ordered it!

[@normandalgarno3242]

This is really good stuff Ian. Why is it so many of us don’t pay enough attention to the club we use the most, on average? Getting good with the putter and wedges is the key. Before the lockdown, I would once in a while go into Golf Town and listen to guys hammering drivers in the monitor bays and watching the yardage readout! I’m 72 now and think of balls in a different way!

[@paulshepherd27]

This is awesome. Thanks guys. 👏🏻

[@BChiarcos]

haha the putter wipe at 1:10. Love it!!

[@toddlaforce9451]

HI Ian I'm like you I tend to miss my putts left Now I will check my forearm alignment along with the other tips Thanks for making this video

[@jacobmccain8082]

Got an exputt putting simulator for Christmas. Found out I have a tendency to hit it online up to about 20 feet (with .5* l/r) but my start direction tends to move a little right the further I go with my path going more left. I'm working on it.

[@chrisreifenberger9617]

I was looking at the perfect practice mat, but this is cheaper and includes more training opportunities! Very nice!

[@benwilson9966]

been looking forward to this!! I'm having a coffee break.

[@daveballad6978]

Hi Guys, is the mate sold in the UK? Looks perfect for lockdown practice indoors.

[@SidewaysSurfDrinksHQ]

Gents, equal parts frightening technique complexities/considerations and fascinating helpful insights. But that’s what we love (and hate 😉) about golf. Especially putting. I’m a social golfer and despairing about my putting most of the time (friggin 3 putts!) but after this, I’m definitely more knowing and will hopefully practice and putt more accurately. Just have to find where to get Gareth’s practice mat in Oz first!

[@viktornordvall5439]

Brilliant stuff boys! 😍

[@theexcrim]

awesome content as always, unreal this is free. I putt cross handed, just wondering if people think its a better way to putt?

[@sakicawaits]

Length and width of the matt please and ty? It isn’t listed on the web site or I’m blind.

[@connoranderson94]

10.5’ x 2.2’

[@ckimnj]

this is so good! thank you.

[@johnk.atchley5079]

Absolutely fascinating. Thank you. I learned a lot. What if you putt looking at the hole? It works for me if I focus on a very tiny spot, maybe just one stem of grass at the edge of the hole on the side I want to aim for, relax and keep my eyes looking calmly and steadily at that precise spot. This calm eye focus is critical. If my gaze wanders, even just from one side of the hole to the other, my aim will be off. I think my brain automatically tells me what the line is and how hard to hit, the same as if I were to toss someone a golf or tennis ball, or throw a dart. My stance for the past two or three years has also been unconventional. My right foot is in a normal position, but my left foot is open to the target. My weight is about 60% on my right foot. It all started with just a relaxed, casual stance with no back strain and no concern for aiming the ball or concentrating intensely on my swing, but it seemed to work and became my actual stance. Finally, I hit the ball with a wristy strike, not with rocking the shoulders. I don't take practice strokes, just look at the slope of the green from behind and sometimes from the side, and step up and hit it. On very long putts, especially those just off the green, I recently have shifted some of the time to looking at the hole and the line I think the ball will take, then looking down at the ball and judging how long to take the club back just to make sure I make center contact.

[@TTT-Turbo]

Ian, are these mats available in the UK, Scotland. If so can you share a link plz Thanks.

[@ianfrasergolf]

Not sure Ian, i’ll check for you!!

[@TTT-Turbo]

@@ianfrasergolf Thanks mate. 👍🏼👍🏼

[@randymahony8157]

Does dominant eye effect change. I'm right handed left dominant eye.

[@shaneodohertyodoherty2693]

Really think this needs addressing in both putting and full swing.

[@davidcarnicom5635]

It effects shooting. In the Army you learn to shoot with which ever hand matches your dominant eye.

[@CalmMitYNWA]

Right handed, left eye dominant here. Started switch putting about 5 years ago and am worlds more confident standing over a putt now - can’t overstate the value of watching the ball roll where you’re aiming vs. relying on your setup line from behind the ball.

[@AhmedHassan-ep3gd]

Love the mat. How’s the pace on it

[@ianfrasergolf]

Around 9 or 10 on the stimp.

[@stevenrobertson1416]

We need a Gareth lesson giveaways! Do I get extra entries for suggesting it??

[@aidangriffiths5075]

great content, big fan of gareths website as well, if you havent checked the videos on there id recommend it big time

[@golf007sd2]

AWESOME!

[@claytonpetree527]

I really, really, really appreciated this video. Thank you. I would love to buy a putting mat like that - is there a European distributor? I did a little looking and didn't see one. Maybe I need to import them or move back to North America.

[@kevindreifurst5681]

Wow nice video

[@gonfarming3178]

TXG should be getting a discount code for this lol - order up!

[@swisstrader]

Good stuff!

[@stanleychun5989]

i am curious about the new exputt and see how it compares to the sam. would txg be able to review it?

[@davemack]

I reckon Gareth could cut all our handicaps by a bigger percentage than any other golf coach in the world! I also love his easy going, common sense , no frills (Norn Iron) manner.

[@jimfarrell7196]

Ian, where is your putter? Please don't tell us you switched putters. The one with the stability shaft was awesome.

[@ianfrasergolf]

No I still have the same one Jim. Thinking about something with less toe hang though.

[@SvingitGolf]

Is there an online store in europe that sells the putting mat?

[@clubchampionmedia]

unfortunately not yet, hopefully in the near future

[@SvingitGolf]

@@clubchampionmedia Too bad. I really like the matt.

[@geoffbridgeman4625]

Great video. My putting issue this that when I line the ball up from down the line it looks right but when I stand over it the line on the ball appears aimed to the left. What’s the most likely cause of this? Putter is adjustable so I wonder if it’s too long/short?

[@robcoates5253]

Putting has been bad lately so I circled back to this video. The mats are in stock on Amazon and Golftown for us Canadians to order!

[@MrThebigplay]

Oh my oh my ..this man is the bomb ..the head thing? I have my freaking chin up to much😔👍 so much GREAT ingo .my goodness bless u 🙌

[@wesboothe6507]

Interested in buyin those plastic rubber cups, where do you recommend purchasing those at?

[@Coys1970]

If the surface you're mat is on,is a bit out,would that compromise the drill where you roll it on the orange line?

[@ianfrasergolf]

That’s tough to do if the surface isn't flat.

[@duane05]

For the ladder drill, does he recommend looking at the spot and dying at the number, or looking say 12” short knowing you want the ball to end a foot past? I find looking at the number and dying there is good, but on the course my putts end up dying at the hole or short

[@rajp3667]

You could put his cup at each hole and putt to make it. Then move the cup to the next number after a certain number of times. Cheers!!

[@brianmann7035]

Site says mats are sold out? Ian donor have any for sale? Brian

[@Just_virge]

Hi what about a workshop weekend, where you have 2-4 of your resident teachers in and we pay a fee to work through stations with them and fitting services with you guys? 🔥

[@paulleary9054]

Get yourself a 1m metal ruler. When you can putt straight down the ruler all the time your starting ball on line with a square putter face

[@ianfrasergolf]

Great drill.

[@tymybomo]

I do this as well. It has helped my putting a ton.

[@JOHN-hk7hg]
