In this video I share with you the FASTEST way you can lower your scores. I did this my sophomore year in high school almost every time I went to the range. My scores started getting better really fast and I shortly after I started getting some interest in college coaches. I have 9 different wedge shots that I like to hit so that I can adjust based on different situations. I share my different method of practicing my wedge shots to show you how you can dial in your wedge distances much better when you practice them the way I like to so that you can lower your scores fast.

100% agree. It’s the difference between an 8 hc, and scratch.
Any aspiring golfer will need to go through this step to raise their game. I learned this with Dave Pelz Short Game Bible, published in 2001. Your content is high quality, worth millions. Keep up the grind!
Heres my best tip to QUICKLY lower your scores!
With Callaway fitting/Q school coming around somewhat soon, it's time for me to switch my focus away from videos now and back onto golf. It's grind time 🔥🔥
Glad you recognize when it's time to refocus on golf and step away from the videos. Your viewers will still be here waiting for new content when you get back so get back out there and kill it.
Absolutely. Appreciate that Lee! 👊
When q school starts, do you know if there will be a website or place where we can follow the scores? Would love to know how you do
Never heard of this advice before - great content and I really wish you the best in your career!
🔥🔥 appreciate that man!
I like these videos the most, I’ll definitely be running a lot of “gauntlets” this year and and adding more stock yardage shots to my wedges. Keep up the good work bro and good luck out there.
Thanks Ryan! I can't make many of these videos since I'll be on the road mostly but I'll try during the off seasons 👍
Thank you this will help me a lot. Always love the videos
Thanks as always Landon! 👊
These tips are awesome! Keep us updated with your progress!
Absolutely! Thanks my man 👊
Enjoyed it....so valuable thank you!
Absolutely! Thanks Pedro! 👊
Love these videos, great to see the inside of a pro golfers mind when practicing.
Thanks my man! 👊
I regularly play a 9-hole course that’s par 34. I’ve been inconsistent with the wedges the last two weeks and it shows. I’m shooting 4-6 strokes above my average. Thank God I saw this video. Differently going to hit the range and work on my wedges this week
Agree, the minimum/maximum drill is game changing. Great to see that sub count growing!
Thanks Braedan! Slowly but surely 💪
The best golf advice i have ever been given. You are an absolute LEGEND Luke!
Data visualization was on point, Luke. Keep up the great work.
Thanks Brian! 👊
You are the man....great video. Been actually working on 50 yard shots myself. Solid advice and as always LOVE the videos!
Appreciate the continued support my man! 👊
So glad you mentioned that you focus on carry distance on the range and did not worry about roll out on crappy range grass because it will not be the same as into a green.
Love this!
This is very informative.
Great advice. Worked on dialing in my wedges this summer and saw my average tourney score drop from 74.2 last year to 72.3 in the fall season this year. Hopefully I can take it lower in the spring
Good stuff bro! Keep chippin away at it 👊
I did something similar to this last winter. I figured out the distances for each wedge, pitched at 50% - hip height, 75% - chest height and 100% - shoulder height (not including full shots). for four wedges this gave me 12 shots to use in my short game and different approaches.
Love the little tips like this, keep grinding!
Thanks Allison! 👍
Good info Luke. Thanks for the video.
Absolutely man, thanks! 👊
Very cool visuals and post production on this - I dig it. Oh and the golf is excellent as well!
Appreciate that Charlie! 👊
LK... that's perfect. Can't wait to try it out. Keep up the good work, my man. The Very Best in 2021!!
Thanks man!
Love the vid bro! Your Pureswing program is PURE too!
Appreciate that bro! Glad its helping you out 🔥🔥🔥
Just discovered your content. This is amazing. Been playing about 8 months and these tips are gold for me. Wish you the best
Thanks nick!
Great video as always!
Appreciate that Oskar! 👊
Great vid. With the weather change here I have been working on this at the range.
Love it! 🔥🔥
Very useful video. I have my 70, 80, 90, 100 and 110 shots dialed in with a 60, 56, 52 and PW, hitting them at 70% effort. Had not considered working in minimum and maximum ranges. So thanks for this video. Cheers!
It should help get an even better feel for those stock even number shots too! 👍
Thanks man !!!
Great info, Luke.
Thanks Russell! Hope youre striping it around as usual 👍
Great tip and video!
Thanks John! 👊
Love it as per usual 👍💪
Thanks Mahis! 👊
Brilliant work man. So specific and calculated in your practice. It’s gonna pay off for you
🔥🔥 Appreciate that alot sean!
first time on the channel and i love it. gonna work on this tomorrow for sure
👊👊
Hey Luke! I am a 16 year old junior golfer and I usually shoot around 81-89. I’ve been playing for around 2.5 years and my goal is to break 75 before 2022 . I’ll try to work as hard as I can with my wedges as u mentioned and just hope I can reach my goal.Thanks for the tip and inspiration!🔥
Did you reach your goal
Great advice. I’m going to try this to make my wedge game better.
👊👊
what an awesome video. gabriel writer was right when he suggested your channel. keep up the good work man !
Thanks Marko! 👊
dude awesome advice...just worked on my wedges this week!
Thanks bro!! Your swings been lookin pure lately 👀
Haha just randomly stumbled on this video, but dude I think I might have played with you in NTPGA Junior Tour Tournaments back in like 07-08. Great video man!!
Such a solid video - I try telling any high handicapper golfer that scores and 3-putts go down if you're sticking your wedges closer. Keep it up, dude! Ready to practice this once the snow clears up.
Appreciate that my man! 👊
Great advice, just like you mentioned in our last messages. Keep at it brother, this channel is getting so good.
Appreciate that brother! Thanks for your continued support 👊
@@LukeKwonGolf I'm loving the new production additions. Keep at it.
What was your handicap when you were 15 Luke ?
Great content! I will stay tuned in.
Thanks Lito! 👍
My son is a 9yo jr golfer. Your channel will definitely help with our journey.. Keep it up!
Great video! Thx
You the man Julian, thanks! 👊
I think the fastest way is to use an eraser
I've yet to try this method 🤔
That's hilarious
This is great, and seems to make practice a little more focused, rather than just beating balls. Well can't wait til the spring, to get back at it, and hope to get below 80 more consistently. Thanks for the video!
Love it!!
Yet another great video
Appreciate that man! 👊
New Subscriber , Awesome Drill and Content huge Thx Luke
Welcome to the channel bro! 👊
Great advice. I use the clock and now switching to more feel and trying to get that dialed in like I had the clock. Doing that to try and increase the feel in my hands and swing speed to get better. When I used the clock before it was always the same speed but just shorted up on the club and distance of the swing. In the wind that didn’t work as well so I’m trying to switch. Watched a few Wesley Bryan videos with Roger Cleveland and that inspired me to try it.
Yep! Old school but effective! Just a little too structured so I basically just use it as a general template and use feel based off of that
Biggest thing for me was really having a set swing, having certain things in my swing (bowed wrist, lag, closed club, stronger grip, draw) this just helped me hit consistant
Amazing video homie
Thanks stephen!
Love the positivity!
Thanks Dan! 👊
Great video dude! I think this is the best pro player channel’s on youtube
Thanks man 👊👊
good work!
Thanks Lucas! 👊
I find distance control with wedges is basically key to a plus figure handicap, and within limits can get you low 60s rounds without much real thought. I'm usually within a yard of my number, so I'm comfortable with my wedge and short irons. But agree entirely, I've made this a priority as of the past 6 months.
Hey Luke I have a question I have been playing golf for about eight months now and I have a big question because my avg golf score after 5 tournaments is 89 and we are half way throu the season and my team is most likely gonna he able to go play in Dallas for regionals but I am just asking for your best advice/opinion on weather or not you think I have a chance at playing golf in the next level, noting the fact that yes I am literally working every day such as you day when you where younger. And also I am wondering how to you guys the pros get the ball to do the kinda one hop and stop shot when your are chipping. Thank you and you made a great video👍🏼
Hey Luke, I have been playing golf for a half year now and I started when I was 15 years old (16 in handicap) . Do you think that I can be a progolfer some day? I am traning nearly every singelday on the course, range, shortgame and strengh! Love your content on your channel and keep up the good work! Chears :)
Great video again Luke you got to come to u.k and do a playing vlog with rick shields would love to see that or you and Karl vilips vlog keep up the great work 👍🏻🏌️♂️
That would be sweet! Thanks man 👊
Good stuff.
🔥🔥
Watching this video from Australia - I just found your wedge-shot golf ball. 😂
totally agree. being confident and competent from 70 in has led to a lot better scoring for me.
100%! Nothin better than walking up to your wedge shot knowing your wedges are deadly weapons 👍
Thank you. Subbed. ❤ from malaysia
Welcome to the channel bro! 👊
Awesome ....I love short game play
I absolutely love dialing in my wedges 🔥
I always tell people that if you can hit 4 clubs to the same number, you got serious game. Distance control is paramount to success at golf, period. Great video.
I really love your content...
Thanks John! 👊
Love this advice....Strokes gained backs this....after this is strokes gained off the tee
Great exercise. I can hit my 58* those distances but I feel as though I just lose too much control so mostly anything over 65-70 yards I’m using 54* up to about 95 yards. What is your suggestion here? Should I continue using the 54 or should I learn to use the 58 over those distances?
Luke, please do a video on how to get out of your comfort zone from shooting around par to under par:) Really appreciate it.
Check out my video titled “how to stop choking under presure”! I think that should help 👍
Got into your Videos.... enjoy your content for sure!!
Lets goooo!
@@LukeKwonGolf have to pick your brain. What's you recommendations for getting better at putting? I know its not sexy for videos.....but its 30-40 strokes a round.
@@lokie2666 having tight start line dispersion is big for me. Check out my “how i/pro golfer practice” video, i use the dave pelz putting tutor religiously for start line 👍
Luke, I have been working on these lines for some time also using a swing caddy 2 for feedback and do a lot of this type of training on a quiet par 3 course shooting at real greens and at first when I did it I would hit 8 shots at a target and was shocked how poor the pattern was, It seems to me it is far easier getting good distance control from 70 to 120 yards than 30 to 70 where the technique has to be different where the smash factor has to be less. Can you go into how you train those distances and do the 30 to 70 yard distances because those shots are more tricky.
I've had this same issue and I asked my coach in college about it. Basically, even the guys on the pga tour don't really like those 30 to 60 yard shots because they're not really a pitch shot and they're not really a wedge shot either. Those are very feel based and also bring spin in as more of a variable since 70 yards and up you can pretty much count on that ball spinning and sitting pretty consistently. Not really the case for 30- 60 yard shots. Just try to stay away from them unless it's a back flag with a lot of green to work with
@@LukeKwonGolf Luke, That makes sense. I have got to the point with the distance wedges where I can call the distances I have hit the shot in practice before the Swing Caddie 2 starts talking to me from the relative feel to the previous shot. This is where Trackman has helped the pros a lot, you get to equate speed through contact to distance and can get good at it quite quickly and if you can do that and practice it on a regular basis can recall the feel of a distance wedge on the course with a high degree of accuracy.
I would like to see a video on the technique you use for your distance wedges. Is the technique a lot different to your full swing? I have been following what James Riyard advocates with feet not too far apart with 70 % weight left with high hands at address standing fairly close to the ball with very little wrist cock almost wooden and Bryson DeChambeau like. It has really helped with my dispersion.
The 30 to 60 yard range is more tricky an the technique I have described does not work in those ranges as the smash factor is too high for the relative club head speed so you don't get enough spin and the ball lands an releases too much. For those shots I use something along the lines of what Stan Utley advocates see
th-cam.com/video/m21C9b3M--w/w-d-xo.html
where I have an underflip going through the ball to reduce smash factor hitting the lower on the ball an increasing spin but it launches higher around 40 degrees so is more difficult to judge distances. I am getting better at it but the dispersment is nowhere near as tight as with the distance wedges. Despite working on those ranges I could never get the same degree of predictability as the distance wedges so what you said makes sense. I was starting to get annoyed that I could not get it to the same standard.
sweet content
Thanks bro! 👊
This is great advice. Do you adjust for range balls or I guess you use only real balls.
Man, I’ve been trying to figure out my wedge game for a while. This distance/gapping system really helped it to click for me. Figured out that I’ve been trying to hit my wedges too hard, so started dialing it back, and finally started hitting them close. Had 4 shots inside 100 yds at Pasatiempo and hit them all inside 6 feet. $$$. That’s def worth a Patreon visit. Thx!
Dude!! Thank you so much man. Yeah hitting wedges closer to full swing makes it difficult to get the distance right. Pumped youre getting your wedges dialed in! 👊
Luke Kwon Golf you got it. Already signed up to be a patron. Not much to start but hopefully can do more later - you’ve been really helpful. One of the best golf follows on TH-cam! 👊🏽
Every bit helps a ton! Youre the man, glad I’ve been helping your golf 👊
Do a video about workout programs for golf!!
I think I will later! I don't think I'm the best source for that but been getting that question a good bit so I will 👍
agree, I would like to see that video!
Transitions were sick
🔥🔥
Hey Luke. GREAT content. How long have you had your wedges? How often do you get new ones? I recently purchased a new 56* and compared full shots against my old 56*. The result was that the new one launched slightly lower with more spin. Is this something you monitor?
Thanks jose! Have had these wedges for about 2.5 years now which is way too long but I havent had any club deals until now. I’d probably get a new one at least every year at the minimum if I can. Yes your nippy shots should be coming out lower due to something called spin loft. The ball is able to grab onto the grooves more and launch lower with more spin 👍
Great advice. My advice would be to work on your short game. I see a lot of mid to high handicap players chip, then two putt. That’s bogey golf. Not even pros hit every green in regulation, but they’re able to get up and down regularly.
short game is the difference between scratches and 7 handicaps
Colin Shultz I’m not a great, consistent ball striker. I can nut a drive, have 100 to the hole then push or toe a wedge. Or I can hit a terrible drive and a really good second shot. What I am consistent in is around and on the green. I’m able to scramble for a lot pars. I had a bad day striking the ball once and ended up shooting a 76 and had 10 pars in a row, most coming on up and downs. Without my short game, I’d probably be a 13 handicap and not an 8.
Damn your channel is growing fast! Do you try to flight your ball for some of the yardages or do you just try to hit them the same height? (like a knock down shot)
Thanks 1000th subscriber! It depends on the situation but if I’m able to hit a more flatter trajectory wedge shot (knockdown) I will. Theyre easier to control the distance and spin
Luke Kwon Golf Thanks that helps a lot!
Ayyyy my guy
💪💪
Close to 10k subs!!
Slowly but surely! 👊
When I did this work I became a lot more consistent getting birdie opportunities. Question: when you try to dial in distance, I mean change distance avfew yards, do you find it difficult to keep it online? A couple of yards short is usually right of targetb long, left.
0:43 your zipped btw your contents are amazing! 화이팅!!
😂😂 dammit was hoping no one would notice
Hell yeah! This is the truth. Being able to hit 3 numbers with each club especially with the wedges. Today I was bombing my drives 300+ with wedges In but I couldn’t score. I need to put In months of this and dial them In.
Absolutely! Hitting it long and straight does nothing if you cant wedge it tight also 👊
Luke Kwon Golf it’s the best way to lower scores for sure! Today I did my gapping and got 4 distances with my 50 54 and 60. This helped me a lot
It’s why I came down from 9 to 5 in the last year. 70-100yrds was costing me doubles alllll the time!
Turning doubles into potential birdies is huge! 👍
Just stumbled onto this looking for some advice. I sort of do the same thing with my wedge practice but unfortunately the only range where I can hit off grass is about 45 minutes away the vast majority of my practice is done in my garage off a mat into a net. I use my Garmin approach g80 launch monitor and it is fairly accurate and just in the 6 months of using it to develop shots I've went from a 9.5 to a 3 but it can be hard practicing without really seeing ball flights and feeling the terf interaction of grass so wondering if you have any suggestions on how to spice up the practice a bit more or make it more on course like than doing simulated rounds or random number challenges.. Literally any suggestions will be tried it is very bland finessing balls into a net for hours lol
Pretty much no substitute for hitting real shots unfortunately lol
Awesome video. Just curious, how did you get the aerial footage of your wedge practice?
i have a drone 👍
@@LukeKwonGolf really cool footage. Which drone are you using if you don’t mind?
@@user-ct2lb4cy2r thanks man! I’m using the older mavic pro, not the 2 pro

Do I'm 50 and played as a junior was scratch-ish in 2018 wad in a major accident where I almost died.
Lots of surgeries!! What's a good compact swing ( like Rahm maybe) right ankle replacement, right shoulder reconstruction, hip etc etc...
PLEASE HELP! Don't know if you remember I'm friend of Kendrick from old fishing days and we met
Luke what would you say would be the best way to contact college golf coaches
I put some FAQs in my pinned comment in my “how to get recruited” videos 👍
imagine if on tour you had to play all the longest par's first, followed by par 4s and par 3s. i think i'll that on my next health initiative 9 hole walk.
Can u do trackman combine ?
I dont have access to a trackman here unfortunately
Do you control the distance with your back swing or follow through? Are you changing your grip (choke down, etc)?
choking down on grip never really did anything for me but I control it with backswing length and try to use speed as more of a feel
your fly's down good sir! XD
😂😂 dammit I was too lazy to retake that shot hahah

I use my knockdown 115yd P wedge shot the least. Thats where my gap and P overlap but its one of the most difficult shots for me in my bag. I can never get the trajectory I want for it. Im unsure if its this because of my AP2s and the P wedge takes a lil too much spin away but it comes out too flat and I dont find a lot of scenarios to hit that shot. Any input on that? Maybe its normal and you use it for shots into wind or back pins around 120yards? Unsure. Just havent found a scenario for mine yet.
It could be maybe a ball issue, maybe your ball doesn't spin enough for you. Not sure, but yeah I generally wouldn't hit a 110 PW to a front flag unless the green conditions are soft 👍
@@LukeKwonGolf i mean yeah the shortest yardage I ever play my P is 120 and furthest without full swinging is 135. I think it might be the head. When I was playing my VR Pros the P wasnt as flat but the lofts were a bit weaker too. Who knows. Nonetheless you make a great point. No excuse to have poor wedge gapping. Good luck this season man you got this. Be cocky in your head!
Another thing I've noticed for me personally is the closer I get to hitting more of a full swing shot the harder time I have controlling the distance. So a 90yd shot with my 58 is more difficult for me to get the yardage right compared to a 70, same thing with a 130 PW compared to a 110 PW. Could just be a personal thing though. Appreciate that my man! 👍
Is that windross nz?
Yep it is!
Luke's 100% correct if you are a decent high school golfer, the wedges and mid irons are the money makers especially if you can hit a fairway. Courses are short in high school and coaches want to know if you have the ability to go low, no easier way to do that than give yourself 5-15 foot putts all day long.
I wish I would've been a range rat like you instead my high school jump happened because I had a small run down 9 hole course I lived across the street from and went there everyday during summer (dang Ohio weather and no net) and played literally 72 holes per day in my uncle's cart and threw golf balls down all over to hit extra shots. I went to college for engineering not thinking about golf, mainly due to my HS coach sucking at recruiting and only playing small level summer tournaments. The only big tournament I ever played in was the Ohio Junior Am before my senior year at Red Hawk Run and I placed 3rd behind two D1 prospects. Then before I got to campus the coach called asking me to play at ONU (D3). I don't want to get into details but I had one good healthy year with a few wins, even a top 20 in a jamboree featuring D1 teams, and almost a couple school records then things went downhill due to injuries and stupidity plus golf things not being the most accessible.
Did u ever play in the tjgt traditions invitational
Yeah I'm pretty sure I did
We’re you using range balls or the golf balls you would use in the course?
Range balls unfortunately. I'd like to use normal golf balls but I don't have enough of my own balls here in nz lol
I see Luke Kwon upload i click
😂😂 thanks josh!
I use a sand wedge for anything under 110 yards. Never owned any other wedge besides a pw.🤷♂️ I probably should learn the gap wedge shot.
Lol yep, need to have versatility with your wedge shots forsure or else youre gonna miss out on opportunities
