For folks in the US, go to Home Depot or Lowe's for the alignment rods, they're much cheaper listed as "Orange Ground Mount Reflective Rod". Around $3 per rod. Another great video Head Playa!
I use a 5 dollar non-slip shower mat for swing practice at home. Great for good contact. You can hear nice brush when club sweeps over the mat. Include some foam balls and good to go for indoor practice.
I literally used the club punch bag for the first time today, exactly as you’ve bought. All the stitching came apart in five minutes. I’m sure it would be a good piece of kit, providing it stays together.
Flipping he club just prior to impact is a problem many have. If you don't take a divot, you are probably flipping at impact. Not always for instance with a wedge when using the bounce there should not be a divot, but by and large with approach shots you want to take a divot. If you notice GS and his approach shots there is always a divot in front of where the ball was located,
@@SurferTy It seems like he has something on where usually the camera would be mounted on. What might that be? How can I put an allignment stick on the tripod?
Play more golf on the course. Use only grass ranges. Use mats only for working on things from a coach. If you have no grass range, play on the course rather Practice irons in the beach or in s fairway bunker at a range
I use a divot board because I can’t practice somewhere with a grass range. Then practice hitting the sand at my range to work on strike. Draw a line in the sand and try and hit it exactly on the line. See how many you can do in a row and work up to 10 full swings in a row contacting in the right place. Bryson has a good video on it with Rick Shiels
Instead of a pool noodle can we use disregarded sex toys? Its part of the recycling program to keep plastics from landfills. Matty Boom Boom you are a national treasure and the best Lithuanian golf jock out there today!
I call swaying sliding. Sliding is the sensation I feel when I do it. Using sliding for the few times asked what they were doing wrong got the point across.
Boom Boom, I recently came across a TH-cam channel called Claws and Effects. They do a deep dive into how important the correct grip is, and how it is not being taught. In fact, they go against all the current TH-cam golf instruction. You might really enjoy their ideas, especially grip and how the hands and palm pressure are supposed to work. Get pro mo back on the channel, and those perfect lady golf swings. Miss those.
Can we have a "Watch me play a round" video? one that there is not teaching or words of wisdom (intended). Just raw Stinkie winky matty boom boom in his natural state.
Hi, Matt! Great suggestions! I need to get some duct tape and tape an alignment rod to my tripod! I've always been a big slider towards the target. However your last tip touched on a topic that's extremely interesting and important to me, spot chipping. I've been a spot chipper for over thirty years and at the end of last season/beginning of this season I've made a huge discovery (maybe you already do it yourself, consciously or unconsciously) on how to use spot chipping for spot putting! You've talked about roll out on putting and how to get a feel for the speed of greens in videos. Using the very fine touch I've developed at spot chipping, I started picking out "spots" on the green to hit my putts to like I was chipping to them. These "spots" were selected as if i was chipping with a 58° wedge with a normal set-up or a 54° with a heel-up set-up (your spots might be different depending on your chipping feel). You hit it to your spot and the rest is roll out to the hole. Ever since I've been using the skill I've already developed with spot chipping for spot putting, I've decreased three putting immensely. I'm guessing since you're already a spot chipper, you could pick this up instantly. Give it a try! I found it helped immediately. If you find it has any merit, spread the word! You're awesome! Love all the putting videos lately!
holy shit, at 6:00 are you serious? thats the way to close the face? i've been twisting it in my grip/hands instead. im sure that does help but I may try that too.
@@GolfSidekick honestly that might be part of it too man. im just getting back into the swing of things at the range. got a lesson the other day, so we're on the way to improvement. currently working on weight shifting during a swing. i might try that grip trainer out too.

Where in Thailand do you play mate? Some clips look like Khao Yai but I could be wrong. Maybe you should get a group of us, your followers also living in Thailand, to have a round together sometime. Cheers!

And Canada... They even sell them at the dollar stores/a buck or more. $5 for two ;)
i've heard others say those are different, and if they break, the fiberglass is pretty brutal. no clue. just what some have said.
my girlfriend already has one of those big pool noodles in her drawer, so I'm saving $1.55!
Be sure to remove the batteries.
@@Weshopwizard bwaahahahaaa !!! Great delivery ;p
lol. I was thinking that looks oddly weird
My wife does too. But it's in my pants.

What I love most about golf is how simple it is... Anybody could do it.
Great vid. I just spent $1k to get all these 20 dollar training aids.
I use a 5 dollar non-slip shower mat for swing practice at home. Great for good contact. You can hear nice brush when club sweeps over the mat. Include some foam balls and good to go for indoor practice.
Under-rated comment! 👏⛳️

Duct tape friend ... I put that sh#*t on everything.

Never ever seen that and I’ve got three. Depends how you stuff it.

I literally worked that out this afternoon, using sports box AI.
What is the name of the attachment mount for the tripod/pool noodle?
Duct tape and alignment stick
Thank you for those great recommendations! What is that tool called, that you stick on the tripod?
The alignment stick. He just taped one. Then a pool noodle. I’m gonna do it. Haha
That is called a "Dong".
@@SurferTy It seems like he has something on where usually the camera would be mounted on. What might that be?
How can I put an allignment stick on the tripod?
@@cozmokramer I couldn't find out what that is.
lol you duct tape the stick onto the tripod mang shieeet
Hey Matt what would you advise people who only practice on mats? Mat vs grass
Play more golf on the course.
Use only grass ranges.
Use mats only for working on things from a coach.
If you have no grass range, play on the course rather
Practice irons in the beach or in s fairway bunker at a range

Could be that your clubs need to be flatter by 1 to 3°. As you know, excessively upright lie angles promote going left.

The vibration will tickle your stinky winky, be careful. And your love eggs will never help your golf. They’ll just make you walk faster.
Great vid! Where did you get the wrist thingy? And do you measure the slope at the hole or from where you putt?
Amazon
Aliexpress
Should be $7 or so
Measure slope 1/3 of the way and 2/3 of the way to the hole from your ball
Awesome video and tips!
Got a product link for fixing the cupping issue?
Great vid playa
Makes sense to practice...I do it at least once a year.😀
Can you tell me the product names of the magnetic stick for club aiming and the wrist thing that addresses cupping?
Magnetic alignment stick
Wrist brace golf trainer
@@GolfSidekick Thanks!
I'm looking for the Hull golf grip myself, we'll see if this thing works!
These are money Playa 👌
I call swaying sliding. Sliding is the sensation I feel when I do it. Using sliding for the few times asked what they were doing wrong got the point across.
It was the opposite for me. Didn’t understand sliding
the man is a GOD
Hi Matty ❤
Cool vid brah!

Yes sir a few coming.

Yes sir I do not reveal all my secrets but that is one of them
@GolfSidekick awesome! I'm just glad there's someone else out there that finds this useful. Everyone I show it to is kind of "meh" about it.
holy shit, at 6:00 are you serious? thats the way to close the face? i've been twisting it in my grip/hands instead. im sure that does help but I may try that too.
Open
@@GolfSidekick ohhh ok, so i probably need to pull back just a little. thanks mate. ill keep practicing and getting better.
@@rammyrump2251could be something else though playa. I used to have a weak grip before. That causes lots of slices
@@GolfSidekick honestly that might be part of it too man. im just getting back into the swing of things at the range. got a lesson the other day, so we're on the way to improvement. currently working on weight shifting during a swing. i might try that grip trainer out too.
Learned something about the grip. I never knew that. Thanks!
Someone who coaches, let's do some ratings.
#1 - alignment sticks, Noone uses them but dang are they versitily. Fake holes, alignment, wack your friend you hate. Gotta have em.
#2 - face magnet. Says so much by saying so little.
#3 - the grip....someone needs to show them a good grip, and stick to it. Some people just plain out get sucked back to their sucky sucky grip.
#4 - digital level. You said it all. It'll teach u to read a green. Don't be illiterate you Dawgs.
#5 - impact bag.
Some
Just need to make time for practice instead of sitting on my ass, thanks Matty "boom boom" waddaplaya
Where in Thailand do you play mate? Some clips look like Khao Yai but I could be wrong. Maybe you should get a group of us, your followers also living in Thailand, to have a round together sometime. Cheers!
Khao yai mainly bro. So quiet and pleasant. One day we can organize something!
@GolfSidekick Cool, look forward to that! Yes, Khao Yai is great, I live in Pattaya but try to visit Khao Yai at least once a year. Enjoy!
