    Coach ... having to knock the dust of the clubs this summer after my colleague I work with wanted to "take up golf" !! After pissing myself ( wisdom as you get older ) ... I gave him some initial advice ... tyen sent him your link and Mark crossfield. Had a lesson with Mark and he is top notch. This video is so helpful to starters !! Great content ..... thanks for passing on your knowledge. Loved the "Just a par on tge 1st !!" after that first hook to a lost ball !! Magic

    Course management (and its reflection in club selection) is where amateurs can pick up a decent number of shots without having to worry about changing their swing etc. Always good to have more of this stuff out there.

    This video is your sweet spot - playing and coaching. Perfect. Nobody does this as good as you. Keep it going and cut the silly lads play me - they may be fun for you but that’s not your demographic. More like this specifically about putting, bunkers, ways to chip and pitch please - but on real courses with real problem shots. It’s what you are so good at.

    Good stuff, appreciate the perspectives and questions to be asking yourself. 2 putt ball to produce a par or bogey will be this year's approach for me as I've really made a huge improvement this off season at the range and lessons with my consistency at producing an intended direction with my shot. 😀 Thanks coach!

    @jonathanstevens2937 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great stuff, Locks. Just yesterday, I had 160 to a front pin and hit an 8i, which carries 154-165. Well, it is a tad uphill and I"d misjudged the wind. Struck it well, but more in the high 150s mode. I ended up with a brutal chip that I failed to up and down. Did the opposite with a back pin on a par 3 on the back and made double! 7i and PW on those holes instead of 8i and 9i and I would have been close to my best on that course instead of having to make a 6 foot slider on 18 just to keep it under 80.

  • @philcampbell6896
    @philcampbell6896 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Enjoy the course talking through each shot. Maybe add the yardage that you want to hit instead of telling the club you are using. Ex: 196 to pin and want to carry it 195 cause a mishit might land in the trap/water. Hope this helps others. You do a great job Coach!
