    Possibly the best ever video on YT, for us recreational golfers/higher HCer's! It can be so easy to misjudge the rough and the club/shot selection. Very good 👍

    Cracked me up with the 1 foot of the fairway ' you should not be here '
    That's where I play all my golf from ☺️

    Hoenestly one of the best videos i have watched so far about different lies and club selection. Very well done

    I'm currently trying to break 100 for the first time. This is something that will make all the difference, I managed 5 pars last time out and went 37 over on the other 13 holes. Avoiding blow up holes of 4+ over is the biggest thing for me

    OH MATT!!! This was the ABSOLUTE BEST video lesson so far. I should watch it before I go out to play! I have made all these mistakes - and on the course you usually don´t get a chance to try another better club.

    Excellent video! I wish I had seen this before my last round. I wasted 3 shots on one hole trying to hit out of high rough with my 5-wood. After analyzing my game, I realized that I had added about 11 strokes to my score as the result of bad choices. If I had just selected the right club and prioritized getting out of trouble instead of continuing to go for the hole from a bad lie, I would have been far better off.

    Your ears must have been burning. I was searching how to get out of that long stuff the other day and couldn't find a decent video!! I broke 90 for the first time yesterday thanks to yourself and a few other youtubers. Thanks for all the advice.

  • @magnificentmuttley2084
    @magnificentmuttley2084 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    One of the most sensible golf tip videos out there Matt and key to the sort of course management that lowers scores. One of my 4ball last week hit his drive into semi rough. He chose to take a fairway metal to it - big mistake! He went from semi rough to more semi rough, just 10yds away. And as his second shot had landed with a slightly better lie, he kept the fairway metal in his hand. He went into heavier rough and ‘dinged’ the hole.

  • @martincooper1128
    @martincooper1128 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Matt, I really LEARN from your simplified instruction, I will take this knowledge of hitting out of diffetent roughs. I saw the MISTAKES I've been making, chosing the WRONG CLUB, and refusing to take my MEDICINE, and get the ball SAFELY back into play, I take MESS, and make it a BIGGER MESS

  • @magnusorfririksson8475
    @magnusorfririksson8475 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    This is now safely stored in the back of my head. I tend to use my rescue a bit too much in the rough. Instead of going into damage control mode, stubbornness kicks in and I dig myself a deeper hole to get out of. Thanks for this card saving tip!

  • @darylwizzard
    @darylwizzard 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great lesson. It really is very important to understand what the golf course is willing to give you on each type of shot. Sometimes, you've got to take your medicine. Thanks Matt!

    @williammills8953 3 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @garrygaggles1160
    @garrygaggles1160 4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Sound advice Matt. Recognising the difference, in the rough lie, is significant to the shot afterwards. This one is going in my memory. Great stuff.

  • @gordonmcshannock4610
    @gordonmcshannock4610 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Another great lesson matt. I'm guilty of trying to play the world beater shots!!! Need to limit my expectations. Keep up the good work.

  • @carlmfletcher
    @carlmfletcher 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Thanks Matt, really useful. I would have picked a 4 or 5 iron when you picked a 7 and I notice my shots go about 50 yards rather than the 180 I was expecting. Thank you.

  • @rome3766
    @rome3766 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    What a great video. Some videos people put up are courses of immaculate condition with roughs like slightly long fairways. This video really shows how not to play with your ego, which to be fair, in this sport is so easy to do.

  • @terrywingfield6699
    @terrywingfield6699 ปีที่แล้ว

    I've been really struggling out of the rough. I knew about not trying to use a wood but had no idea what technique or stance I needed. I've been trying to play it like a normal iron shot and cursing when it would only go a few yards, usually still remaining in the rough. This is really helpful, thanks Matt!

    Hi matt, great advice, I was lucky to be given that advice during a playing lesson with my pro, take your medicine and don't try the career shot 🤣🤣👍🏻👍🏻 it helped get a par/bogey and on occasions a birdie instead of double/triple bogeys

  • @SoRTs6233
    @SoRTs6233 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    A bit worrying that a golfer as good as you should take FOUR drives and get none on the fairway! But, fair dos, they all went the same distance. Seriously though, a great tutorial! Practical advice for common situations that we can all use. (Amazing tip about the lob wedge!) Thanks Matt, instant sub!

  • @andrew1craig1

    So true. I've seen my buddy time and time again try to use his FW to get out of the rough. The club hoods as it hits the grass and the ball travels left back in the rough advancing about 20 yards.

  • @rodphillips9433
    @rodphillips9433 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Always practical, helpful, and realistic. I have found that in the short rough that I can hit my hybrid under the ball (literally) and it pops up and just goes a few feet. Maybe a 7 iron is the better choice than even though it is sitting up nicely...

    Very good review. I had a conversation with a friend on just this situation last week. Proper club selection, especially to get out of trouble is so important and so many make mistakes on this. I have thought long and hard on this and my club selection has been getting better and shots more successful . This tutorial is a good reminder about all of this. Well done Matt. Joe

    Scenarios 3 and 4 are just a pride thing with golfers a lot of time that I see. "I can get it out of there with my hybrid" . Leave your pride at home a realize you are going to save strokes by pulling a 7 iron or wedge.

    • @cdjhyoung
      @cdjhyoung 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      My gulf partner and I have adopted the phrase "you're not Tiger Woods" to remind us NOT to try to be super human and instead make the rational club selection. In his case it comes into play on a long dog leg lined by tees on the left. His long clubs have a severe slicing ball flight. If he over drives his preferred landing spot on his drive, I remind him his next club choice is a long iron, not his driver that will get eaten by those trees. If you are a bogey golfer such as us, these decisions can mean 3-4 stroke a side.

    Great video. If I may, another way of expressing the shot out of the long rough on a par 5, is to just try to hit the second shot to where you wanted your tee shot to be. If accomplished it actually makes you feel quite positive about only one shot dropped.

    Had a buried lie in think Bermuda rough last weekend from about 100 yds out. Tried to go for it with a wedge and it went 10yds into the same think rough. Should have taken my medicine and hacked out sideways to get back into the fairway. These course management videos really help me see how I’m losing shots every round just not playing smart golf.
