I don’t understand how this guy isn’t more popular.
Racism
I reckon because he sweats sexiness. Insecure playas.
Well. I mean 222k subscribers is hardly unpopular !!!!😊
Raw sexual magnetism. Yt suppresses the vids because they are far too exciting!
Probably because he tells the truth and doesn't try to sell people snake oil and miracle swings tutorials. Most people don't like hearing the truth especially when it's about how bad they are at something.
"Par is a social construct". I want that on a t-shirt. 😁
"You have to stand guard at the entrance of your mind" another zinger
Seriously. The Golf Baus needs merch pronto. Your idea should be the first one.
from 104 to 83 in a 3 months of golf after not playing for 16 years, 'Golf Sidekick' and 'Not a Scratch Golfer' have helped enormously with getting back into the game. I was a 10 handicap in my 30's and feel like if I follow the advice here I can maybe get to single digits in my second golf life here in my 50's.
Same here👍. I stopped golfing for almost two decades and I’m almost fifty now. Shot an 83 with my father in law last week at Bodega Bay which is north of San Francisco. I really like Golf Sidekick and Not A Scratch Golfer…I highly recommend this video too…th-cam.com/video/iP0sBzIXRtc/w-d-xo.html
Happy golfing👍⛳️🍻
All about the right advice
104 to 83 is legit! Congrats playa!
The two horseman of better golf.
I've been stuck at 103 for 6 months after coming back after a break. Nothing is working.
Matt trying to breathe life into the butterfly is the best thing I have seen on youTube in years!
Teaski will never for get it
Broke 80 for the first time a couple weeks ago. Entire round asked myself “What would golf sideskick do?” “You don’t need to be a hero!” Talked myself through each shot like I was watching one of your videos. What a feeling, waddaplaya!!
Just ordered a head cover from you… will help me stay zen & hopefully get a few more sub 80 rounds under my belt.
He's too sexy to be popular
Congrats on the breakthrough.
Doing it once proves you can do it again, stay with the process, talking yourself through each shot really works. Positive mental imagery.
Go for the parskies!!!
Yeah. Bro just hit 4 over through 9 with nothing longer than a 175 yard club. Shows that getting to a 10 HCP is more about consistency and control than distance.
The Rick Shields line was amazing
*Wrick Chills
I missed it
Happy to report that I am breaking 90 now since breaking 100 last year from listening/watching the High Handicap Whisperer Playa-in-Chief. Recently got a 7-wood 20 deg loft and it has helped me with the 180 yards approach shots and long Par 3.
Great job! Love to hear positives like this
7 wood changed my game as well.. par 5s are now my jam.
I honestly think this channel is one of the best on TH-cam for golf. It is definitely one of ,if not my favorite. Keep up the great content good sir! I would love to come over there and learn from you one on one.
Glad you enjoy it!
Yes it’s all about playing and scoring better not about technique. It’s about thinking, linking shots three 150 yard shots is the same place as 230 + 150 + 80 How many not how
Been channeling golf sidekick the last few months. Saw “the glimpse” a few weeks back. Today, left the scary sticks in the bag, left the driver in the car. Shot an even par round, 3 birdies. Was shaking afterwards. My best round in 40 years by a comfortable margin. Golf Sidekick and Not a Scratch a big part in today’s success. Thanks!
#1 Lithuanian golf TH-camr!!!!
After a year around 98, finally followed all his advice. Kept driver in bag unless it was a wide open fairway. Focused practice on putting 3 footers. Heavy
in the same process here... "every shot must have purpose" is mindblowing... still waiting to return to the low 90 yet... (where I once was)
So went forward one tee and you still value your 83?
@@YoonPark-zu1ps What kind of a comment is that? Yes, the 83 is valuable. Even if it went off the very forward tees (I.e. the front tees), it is still valuable. Going from 98 to 83 is an INCREDIBLE improvement!
The forward tees exist for a reason. It is still a real golf course. And, above all, golf is supposed to be FUN!
@yoon… golf is about hitting the clubs you love to hit. It’s about strategy. Strategy is hitting from the tees that allow you to hit your best clubs most often. Have you not watched any of “Golf Sidekick’s” videos? 83 is respectable from any tee box.
went to my last match
gave my buddy the scorecard i didnt want to think about it
played from the blues , said im having a stress free round since ive been so hard on myself to try and break 90 this season.
and finally broke 90 shot an 88 for the first time ever!
your tips really helped about being conservative in my approach
hit 3 wood mostly instead of driver and kept the ball in play. thx matty
"Par is a social construct" is my new favorite motto
It really is especially if you have never broken 100
I still watch the 3 part 18 hole video of breaking 90 with out hitting more than 150 when my game is feeling off and it always brings me back. Every time i go back to a full bag thinking I am going to take a scoring leap, i start playing poorly again. Switch back to the half set of evens, sand wedge, mini driver and putter and its back to the low 90s. This is the best golf advice on youtube.
what a brilliant new perspective .... i still cant believe this was possible. hats off bro .
‘I’m hitting a pitching wedge here not to be an a$%hole’ 😂😂😂
Recently found your channel and do not understand how you don’t have double the subs. Brilliant content and makes me laugh. I have improved my swing dramatically with lessons in the last 6 months, but my score has not come down that much (high 90s). Looking forward to putting your methods into practice and reporting back. Keep up the killer content
I laughed way too hard at that line.
he's helped me so much especially with course management. I don't tell my mates about him, I'm selfish I want to have the advantage over them, LoL!!
Matty bro, you are THE MAN, yes i watch follow an mirror Exactly this format for the past 2yrs from your advice. My mates hit Driver, i hit 4ironHybrid and guess whos in the middle of thr fairway 90% of the time...Me. love yr videos from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺
Man I love these…the way u break it down for the average golfer and show that if u play a little smarter u don’t have to bomb 300yard drives off in the woods…these are always my favorite to watch maybe cause it applies to my game the most…good job Playa
Applies to a lot. Of our games playa
One of the best, most simple and sensible golf videos I’ve seen. Thanks Matt! 👍
Thanks again to Golf Sidekick, 2nd week in a row breaking my par as a high handicapper for a 9-hole course! I came in 5 under!
Fantastic! You’re a bass legend
Love your content Matt. Got me from never having broken 100 down to consistently mid nineties in one season of more focussed andabove all, enjoyable golf. Can't thank you enough..
Priceless information and guidance towards a better golf mentality when on the course
This video helped me so much in just the 1st 2 minutes.
I had been playing terrible, low 100s terrible.
Lucky to get 1 or 2 pars a round.
Last 2 rounds are 85-88.
I made 3 changes. Took out Driver, Took out the 60 and started playing to the back of the green.
Thank you Playa in Chief.
Cant give much better advive on that play strategy. My hcp is 16.7 and have changed my game approach towards advise given by You and Jimmy Tropicana.
You two gyus are the best golf vlog coaches for the club players aiming their game under 90, or even 80.
Thank you 🙏.
Dude , you are awesome. You make golf enjoyable . It’s an eye opener for me . Thanks looking forward for more
"You have to stand guard at the entrance of your mind" Absolute pearl of wisdom there Sir 👍
Mid 90s to mid 70s after two seasons. Your breaking 80 series has helped me make better decisions and Bob Rotella's Putting Out Of Your Mind has given me confidence on the greens. You can always make a putt!
Need to work on pitching and chipping next!
Recently had Covid last week so I was out of commission for a few days and I spent a lot of my time when I wasn’t sleeping watching older videos. There are so many great gems outs there and the new videos that drop are 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥!
For the last few years I've been around a low to mid 90s golfer. This year I've had more round in the 80s than I've ever had. I have been using some of the tips from this channel to help get more consistent. The chipping episode where Eric showed how to better do the 40 yard shot has been great. It took me a couple rounds (thats where I practice) to get better at it because I changed my normal way of doing that shot but it has worked out because it has actually helped me with some longer shots as well. I also am not worried about coming up a little short of the green because I feel much better about getting on the green. I actually went 5 rounds in a row breaking 80, then fell apart and had 3 rounds above 90.
I broke 90 this season for the first time. Have done it 4 times now in the last few weeks, 87, 86, 89. Just yesterday I had my best round with an 83, was +1 through 8 holes before a blowup hole on 9. Love the stress free golf you preach, it has lowered my scores like crazy and I'm able to stay cool after a triple to end my best 9 holes and come back with a par on 10. Thanks playa in chief.
I've been watching your videos for quite sometime and recently took alot of your advice to break 90. I played smart, safe stress free golf and shot an 89 last Sunday. Appreciate all that you do. Keep on swingin Playa. I'm going to try one of those mini drivers when I can afford one.
Entertaining, logical, sensible and valuable. Thank you.
I'm liking these videos. It's helping my golf game like nothing else so far!
Great video. Cool to see you analyze each shot.
I’ve been really struggling on my back nine recently, I have a new mindset on my game now I’m super keen to play this weekend
Thank you for a very practical approach to playing.
I'm watching this again for the 3rd time. Good content Matty! 👌
Love your humor and great videos !
Yes I am looking for that same mini driver Matt great lessons to be learnt in this video
Thanks, you've made me rethink the way I should play especially in matchplay competition when my opponent is giving me shots.
Take advantage of that shot and force him to make par on the hardest holes while I only need to make bogey.
You have improved my game so much. I have always struggled with my driver, so the course management that you demonstrate has made me a very competitive player. Everyone else seems stuck on the mechanics of the swing so much that course management doesn't even come up. Thank you for teaching how to play the game, not just how to hold a club and swing mechanics.
Keep it a secret playa. Let the mechanic merchants and strokes gained extremist jive turkeys wander Willy Nilly. Welcome to the bright side of the street
Love your video’s humor and great Mindset real world instruction.
Broke 80 for the first time last week ! Your Videos are helping so much !!
Excellent!
Thanks for sharing!
Matty you are without question the bausss. LOVE your videos and your style. It's the content that I need.
As a new golfer, this is the most helpful beginner video I've seen.
Love these videos, they are so spot on. They changed the way I play golf
Playa it’s good to have you tuning in. Thanks for watching
Nice video!!! Very descriptive and informative.
Very good video. The 'science' makes sense.
Admiring your effortless swing.
Trying to break 100 myself but you've inspired me to 'think better'.☘️
Still the best purchase of my life the old M1 3 hybrid.
Getting the consistent tee club, playing the correct tees, staying out of the woods, water and wasteland led to smashing scoring barriers.
Best thing to do, play with a broskito who tracks your scores rather than doing it yourself, they know where you're at and you can jam stress free!
I find your vlog very helpful .
Had one of my most enjoyable rounds and best scores after watching Golf Sidekick videos
Absolute magic Sir , thank you 🏌️keep scoring well ⛳
Finally someone speaking in a calm and educated manner. It doesn't take fancy graphics or flash or talking as if you're hopped up on pcp jumping around all over the course to simply play a good round of golf and teach others how to do so at the same time.
Great video. Glad I came across your channel.
20:44 This is why you are my golf guru. This is my self-talk when my golf buddies start all the "PGA Pros" jibber-jabber. I always remind them that if I could make half the shots the pros make, I'd start my qualifying journey...
I’ve watched these series many times in the last 2 months. Only been playing 2 months total. I’ve already shot a 93 and 91 at some very difficult courses.
I’m gonna break 90 very soon.
Played a quick 5 holes at the club yesterday and was 4 over.
No one can beat these vids man! The best golf education out there peeps, don't doubt this man!
Thanks playa means a lot
A big thank you, Sir! Your videos have played a big part in me shooting my best round ever yesterday - - an 85. There were more than a couple of occasions where I was thinking of trying a "hero" shot (as I will usually do, mostly unsuccessful) but you were in my head telling me to play smart and just get on the green with the next shot!! What a big difference, thank you again!!
New to this channel and as an 18 handicap, love the approach to shot/course management! Looking to go low this season and will most definitely be using these strategies 🇨🇦⛳️🤙🏽
I love a good Jack Nicholson course😂
Great video especially for those who can't hit is as far. Interesting experiment to try also.
Such great course management advice. Has already taken 4-5 strokes off my score by playing and thinking back from the hole! Thanks Matt. Titties to the target!
I haven't watched gold TH-cam in ages golfing has halved because of a new job for me I haven't been great but shooting in the 30s forgot how inspiring it is to listen to matt before I go on the course I already feel ill shoot well after listening to him
Hey mate just got back from Thailand. Didn't get much course time due to the wet season but picked up a new set of clubs(secondhand). I am super excited by how they are feeling much better than my old Wilsons.
Your videos are an inspiration to me and many others I suspect. I have learnt so much from from your attitude to the game.
Sorry you didn’t get too much play time here. Glad you picked up some clubs. What did you end up buying?
Great video MBB. I broke 90 for the first time using this method!
i love your videos man
i finally broke 90 few days ago after watching several videos you made
and im trying to do it again tomorrow!
I am watching and absorbing intently. I am among your toughest challenges, but I am on the path - The Way of the Playa
Haven’t played more than quarterly for the past 10 years or so.
Played 7 rounds in the past 6 weeks. Chronologically, the scores have been:
123
115
113
111
121 - WTF?
109
109
What has improved with a few hours of dedicated practice:
Down to 3 or 4 3-Putts from 6 or 9 per round. Probably 3-4 hours of putting practice has accomplished this.
Down to 0 or 2 double chips from 5-6 per round. Just GIOTG. Focusing on each shot.
Playing to Texas as much as possible.
Par is a social construct! 6 is a good score on any hole, and 7 is survivable. I do change the card as you suggest.
What still needs work:
Full shots are sometimes still topped or thinned, even off the tee. Probably at least 5-7 of these wasted shots per round. I suspect ball position and trying to hit it too hard still. Got to set up correctly and swing easy. I did have a lesson last week that I think is helping.
Still going OB about thrice per round. Even with irons only! I’ve hit every club in the bag OB 😂
Still can and will get better at putting and chipping. More practice needed.
The best thing has been keeping a positive attitude and enjoying the day. I don’t get mad anymore. Goldfish memory. The only shot that matters is the next shot.
Just glad to be out there and getting better.
Playing this Sunday. Same course as 5 of the 7 rounds so far. Will report back.
Thank you for changing my game. I will break 100 one day, and probably soon. But no pressure!
Love that expression goldfish memory will have to remember that.
I am taking lessons got down to 16, 30+ years ago started again 2 years ago. Only broken 100 a couple of times but much better scores are coming. My eclectic card for the two clubs I play at are -2, +2. The two courses are chalk n cheese. Drives me mad that I have parred or better every hole one one course yet struggle to get into the 90’s.
Going to have to watch a lot of these videos ref course management and shot selection.
Your game sounds like mine I can hit a cracking drive then a terrible approach. Be 20 yards of the green in two then take 4 to get down. It’s a great game though
@@guyr7351 love it. We are getting there! This system works, because it’s simple and actionable. I have full trust in matt, and thereby, myself for following his advice.
What an amazing video
Thank you Matty Boom Boom! I've been following you here on the tube for several months. You have the one system that I trust! I picked up a used taylor made sldr mini driver (14 loft) and it has made such a huge difference! I had been teeing off with a 3 wood, but with the slrd, I can hit it confidentially, so on wide open holes, I use it. On the more narrow holes, I still use the 3 wood. I used your method (SI 1-9, add 2, SI 10-18 add 1) to break 100. Today I shot a 93. I was ok getting bogeys, I hit a few par-skis, and even had a couple of birdie putts. Your system works!! I can see now that 90 is my next goal. Thank you Playa!! So now I have - a driver I can count on, a good 3 wood that goes around 160, a 3 hybrid, 5 hybrid, 7, 8, 9, PW, 56, 52, 56, and putter. I have a couple of other clubs, but I don't use them, and thanks to you, the 60 LW stays home. I try to hit my PW in the back yard almost every day. I work on short chips, toe down chipping, and 30-50 yard shots. I go to a local school's football field to practice half to 3/4 swing 7, 8, 9 irons for dis-tansees up to 100 yards instead of chunking (like some of the guys in the group I play with) wedges. Your insight has made the game much more enjoyable and I hope soon to be a b-aouce like you. Cheers!
Beast mode well done playa
I want to say thanks, yesterday I shot an 88 (albeit on a par 64 short course) by following your advice. I hit my driver (which I'm comfortable with) on appropriate holes. I played to getting on the green in GIR+1. I went to my most comfortable clubs on the bad lies.
Your tips really helped improve my game and activate the playa!
Glad they are helping you playa that’s what we are aiming for
It works! Played a round using only half of the clubs I used to. I did drive but only at 70-80 percent, no forcing, no stress. In the past weeks I practiced short irons and putting. Beat my hcp with 7 strokes today on a soaking wet course where a ball would not run a meter after hitting the ground… Big thank you!
#1 Lithuanian golfer dropping truth bombs instead of hitting bombs! This is the way of the playa!
Shot 48 for 9 holes on the weekend. Longest club I hit was a 7i. 2nd round back playing golf after a break of 20 years Never would have though of doing that until I watched some of Matty boom boom's vids.
These strategy vids for higher handicappers are great. I will be using this (as much as I can remember😊). Thank you.
Glad you like them!
Another great video from the baus!!
More to come!
I wont be breaking 80 anytime soon as a hacker, but i watched this video twice before my last round. Hit only one driver the whole day (double bogey btw) and shot 94 on one of the harder courses in my local rotation. It gave me confidence that I can at least probably break 90 the next time I play my local muni. Great vid!
Matty Boom Boom with words of wisdom. I now wear a buckets and dropped 3 strokes! Thanks Sidekick!
Wattavideo. Absolutely fantastic stuff
Damnnnnn Boi. Wadda clinic. I have fallen from the way of the Playa and totally stopped keeping guard at the entrance of my mind. Watching far too much technical crap on TH-cam. My irons are Sheeit. My driver sucks. Time to get back to swinging my swing and adhering to the WOTP. Thanks BAUS for the wake up call.
Thank you- I forced myself to hit my 4 iron off the tee this week and I shot an 84. I’m a 31 handicap but the 84 came east!!! Thank you
Great video playa
After watching a few of these, I was able to break 90 twice. Your videos are the best no nonsense videos on TH-cam. My putting was my best game for a while but once I realised I don't need to hit perfect shots all the time. Just need to be around the right areas. Then boom, an 88 then an 86. 🎉
Thanks bhuru
Tendai 🇿🇼
Thanks Tendai. Keepin it real
I love this channel. Truly my favorite golfer on TH-cam.
I will be applying concepts from this video this weekend. I'll let you know if I break 90.
Congrats on avoiding the add blockers. Good info provided as we see the importance of using the brain as an additional club.
I have had some nice stress free rounds in the 78 range which as I have found out is more fun than stressfully rounds even if lower scores. Confidentiality is muy importante. You are enjoying an enviable lifestyle. Keep up the good work.
youre comedy is so good mate , love all your content
i love you
What a beautiful golf course
Your commentary cracks me up
I tell it like it is. I have watched countless videos on the subject of golf swing and the only thing they have brought was confusion. Your videos have taken me further than any of the "things no one tells you" videos. Ultimately, it's all about the metal game, short game. You don't learn technique from TH-cam, you learn it from a PGA professional. Thank you for your relaxing and educational videos for the playa's.
Playa it’s my great pleasure
I was having a horrible day on the course yesterday before I decided to follow Matt's guidance and next thing I know is 3 8-iron shots and a 4-foot putt for par completely changed my day around and I ended up shooting 89. That was after straight doubles on 3, 4, 5! I was hitting my 8 because I hit is better than my 7-iron!
this is next level thinking well done
you will soon be in the low 80s with your adaptability
Love this channel ❤
You're the best!
Love the course management stuff. Finally taking golf "seriously" in the last couple of years. Just starting breaking 100 with a bit of regularity, chasing "boogie" golf and feel like you have handed me a recipe. Would love to one day play a Jack Nicholson course, lol.
He’s back! Learning a lot from this video. Question, what gps app are you using on your watch? Thanks
Followed this yesterday, shot 82, round before that shot 102......it works.
Hi Matt, love your videos ❤!
Can you give some advice how to play a mini-driver? Tee a bit lower, but still in line with left heel? Or closer to the center?
Followed Matt’s rules to the T. Shot 43 on 9 holes today! Thanks Matt! Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezey!
Easy game
This is ASMR stuff watching these videos...😂 Thks Matty
He plays a game I could play. Luv it.
Thanks
