His books are excellent too. His book, Getting Up and Down, is perhaps the only book most golfers will ever need for their short game. Forget all of the other “gurus “ except for Lee Trevino who in his prime was probably the greatest wedge player.
Tom’s explaining of the grip in relation to the cocking of the wrists was a new insight for me. The cocking of the wrists is as subtle as the un cocking of the wrists. Holding the club lightly is better understood by realizing that to grip the club tightly doesn’t allow for the necessary focus of keeping the left arm straight in the backswing and downswing.
poor Jack. It's probably the only time I saw him look like/he thought he had a tournament wrapped up before the last shot was hit. Could you imagine Nicklaus with another U.S. Open and 19 majors. Incredible still.............
"Now let's try it with a 3 iron" (24:30 minutes)😅 NOPE, my longest iron these days is a 5. I hit the easy button and play fairway woods beyond 5 iron. Awesome video.
Once he writes a letter to Augusta to beg McCord to come back, I’ll “respect” and watch his game…. til then, may you forever live in the shadow of the GOAT

210yards, uses a 2-iron. I actually liked the old yardages. Today it’s 210 yards,….and a 7-iron . I know, equipment etc, but I still like the distances they would hit.
This lesson is an absolute gem. This guy has more credibility than any yotuube golfers you could ever encounter today.
Because “this guy” is a champion. Not a TH-camr
Effortlessly demonstrates two darts. One draw, one fade. That was sweet
I wish I had discovered this 5 years ago. Going back to the basics is the only way to fix chronic problems. Thank You, TOM (and Debra)!
As a boy that grew up in Kansas City- Olathe JO CO- every now and then you see Watson - His short game is the best in the Midwest-
This man is pure class.
Bad ass Charlie’s Angels background music 70s style!🙏
So much wisdom from a true gentleman of the game. Thanks Tom. Love from England.

Dave Pelz short game Bible. He TAUGHT Tom Watson, and Phil, and VJ, and 8 other champions.
Yea, Tom’s book is great, but because of Pelz!
Such a shame he didn't win in 2009(so close!!!!), it would have been the icing on the cake to a wonderful career.
I have watched a lot of golf and golf instruction over the years. This is excellent instruction.
Thanks for uploading.
I will ALWAYS love the great TOM WATSON!
The GO AT Jack faced legends and finished second to legends 19 times in majors. Watson's chip in sealed the deal in this clip.
best golf instruction ever
That was a sick lesson ! Thanks for uploading

I don't know anyone that hasn't shot their mouth off and later regretted it. Still a world class player, if not a human being
