Amen Michael! Thank you for the list. Grabbed your audio book. Absolute gold!
Happy to help & thanks for the support on the book!
Very good tips, they make totally sense. It's very often about routines and not expecting too much from your shots (being more realistic is very helpful 🙂)
Glad they were helpful, appreciate your support!
Good advice. Thanks for sharing
Happy to help, appreciate the support
well done thank you
@@huunguyen5280 much appreciated, hope it helps break 80!
Good stuff 👊🏾
Much appreciated!
Very good video.....love your "don't time travel" mentally tip!
Thanks I really appreciate it! Lot more content coming 🧠✅⛳️
i've been a 13 hdcp for 30 years and have only broken 80 three times in my life spaced out about ten years apart but i remember them all.
Definitely not easy but always fun to have it happen! What's your current handicap goal?
@@wickedsmartgolf trying to at least get below 10.
@@steveperry1344 nice! Track stats if you don't already - can learn a lot from them to figure out which areas need the most work.
@@wickedsmartgolf ok i'll try that. what do you think of milled grooves on putter face? i have it on some of my putters and i think it puts a bit of some unwanted sidespin on putts causing some of my misses and lip outs. i have regular face putters also and i'll have to do a study. i'm missing putts i should be making and i used to make.
Great tips, I’ll add one ……no hero shots. Get it back in play and take the bogey, if you can?
Couldn’t agree more!! I mention that a ton on my podcast & Instagram 👍 you’re wicked smart!
Hi Michael, when do you need to change your clubs? I was custom fit 2 1/2 years ago and my handicap has come in 15 shots. Would these clubs still be serving me well? I'm watching this very closely, as my handicap is 10 - I haven't broken 80 yet, but close.
First off nice job, 15 shots in 2.5 years is amazing! For such a drastic drop, I would consider a fitting to see how your clubs are performing. If it was only a shot or two and/or haven't made swing changes, probably not worth it. But chances are your swing speed has increased and might need different shafts too. Keep up the good work!
Great list. IF golfers use these tips to improve, they will.
Learning this stuff is half the battle then having the discipline during the round to make it happen. Appreciate your support!
Ngl, I just read the title as “7 rules to break. To break 80” and immediately thought of the bald high handicap comedian. 😂
🤣🤣
Home course? Guessing either P.V., Pelican, Monarch or Torrey..?😀
I wish lol I’m in Arizona and play wherever the tournament is… no home course 😢
..nice, AZ is great, more courses and less crowded...have a brother at Dove Valley Ranch, hope to get out there next month and see Mark at Cool Clubs. And if you're out this way, we'll get you out. Subscribed and thanks for the channel! ⛳
@@youview5023 it's great 9 months of the year lol summer is always a challenge so we travel as much as we can. Where are you located? Thanks again for the support on the channel.
@@wickedsmartgolf in N part of Redondo.
...wow, folks, a fitting he suggests is to help, if you're not sure, go ahead and swing away, but probably would be difficult to convince even top players, especially Bryson, that they use 'stock'. Even just a shaft change can make a difference. See what works best for you. That's why when I travel sometimes rent to compare something different😀
Just trying to help make golf easier. Wrong equipment can hurt distance & accuracy
@@wickedsmartgolf yes, I agree, not sure why everyone wants to challenge a fitting, heck, otherwise we'd all still be using a persimmon.😀
Rule #1: have hundreds (or thousands) of dollars.
It’s definitely not a cheap sport. But short game practice is normally free, indoor putting mat, & buying used clubs help
@@wickedsmartgolf I think he's talking about the price of getting fitted as nobody does fittings for older generations of clubs.
You end up having to pay hundreds of dollars for the fittings + thousands of dollars for the clubs that they fit you for.
It's unfortunate, but the vast majority of golfers do not have the financial means to get fitted because of the exploitative ways that golf companies go about the process of fitting people.
A used set of burners, a garage sale putter and a ping g30, a decent pair of golf shoes, costco gloves and a bag of used balls will run you less than 400$USD. There are a million golf courses where you can play 18 holes for less than 50$ ( that's 10$/hour entertainment ).
Golf is not expensive in itself, but the industry is predatorial towards less experienced golfers who are led to believe that they MUST spend THOUSANDS to even play..
@@bobgomez9249 definitely not a cheap sport... but a fitting can be as simple as $150 to make sure your equipment is right, changing lie angles, figuring out if you have the right shaft, realizing distance gaps, and trying out new clubs. Doesn't mean you need to buy them but if you do it's always good to buy slightly used, sell old clubs online, etc. Lotta ways to make it happen just have to be creative
Thousands. Custom clubs alone are already going to run over a grand.
@@rickhubble7498 not saying you need custom clubs I"m saying a custom fitting can help you figure out if you need upright/flat lies. If you're a lower handicap golfer with faster swing speed you might need an upgrade shaft but I think it's so key to make sure equipment is right for you.
Driver more often? Nah! I don't play with a driver and score 78-82. My advice ... Learn how to chip and putt, 2 putt drills, practice 4 swing yrds 200, 150, 100, 50, divide par 4s by 2, par 5s by 3, tee off those approx yrds, And play front tees. There's no rule against playing the course at the shortest distance.
Good tips too!
I hit my driver 240 meters. I don't use it in competitions. Bad drive costs you the hole, period. I use a 5-iron off the tee. Rarely out.
@@stevencoutts2895 might not be out but unless you're hitting driver in a penalty area every time probably giving up shots. Longer distance into the greens always correlates to higher scores - even for the pros.
He explains the benefit of driver and some goof replies, 'nah' because his scores are 78-82...seriously?! Some folks prefer mediocrity...good explanation on the benefits Michael, driver numbers speak for themselves 👍
@youview5023 ... guess I'm the GOOF. There is no need for insults if you disagree. I seriously doubt a golfer that's very consistent with a driver hitting fairways 275+ yards is struggling to break 80. If so, "using the driver more" is not the problem. That's why I said ... nah. Generally, golfer struggling to break 80 (or 90) lose strokes in the tee box because of miss hits with a driver. But if you disagree, our advice may help someone play better golf.
Rule #1 is NOT true. In a fitting the fitter always deletes your poor shots making it look like the new club is better than your current gamer. Example: current irons may not have hit a poor shot, but travels 5 yards shorter. The fitter makes you try another iron, deletes 2-3 poor shots and thus that iron performs better. When In actuality it doesn’t! Happened to me twice already and finally figured it out. This coming from a 4 hdcp player.
It is true. Just because your fitter was bad doesn't mean having PROPERLY fitted clubs doesn't help. I'm a 4.6 index and had an amazing fitting that helped me improve 2strokes over just a couple of months of playing the right equipment. If having PROPERLY fit clubs doesn't make a difference, play for $100 a hole and play some random person's clubs.
Feels like a pretty rare example, can’t say I’ve heard of that before. Also important to ask questions, see the numbers & don’t buy on the spot
Well said, gotta find a good fitter but once you do makes a massive difference in consistency. Playing random clubs only making the game harder. Good work getting to a 4, keep it going
@@xxthadeucexx I’ll beat you with your fitted clubs 😏
@@xxthadeucexx there is video in Rik Shields channel discussing club fitting is way over rated!
easy. never make a mistake and be a short game wizard and stone cold putter. what could be more simple?
Lol not the case at all, you can make a lotta bogeys and still break 80. Not to mention the average scratch golfer has nearly 2 three putts per round. Just about avoiding the big numbers
Rule #8: don’t use a pen. Use a pencil.
🤣🤣
What rubbish….
Helpful feedback lol sorry for trying to help...
