This is your best video, yet, Matt! Thanks for the positive, concise short game overview. Positive thoughts are CRUCIAL to hitting better golf shots. Looking forward to putting these ideas into practice on the course this week!
The best tip that I've ever received for hitting out of the bunker is to really dig in and pretend that the ball is George Washington's face on a $1 bill. When you swing, you want to swipe the entire length of the dollar bill and step forward as you swing all the way through. Gives you a full, detailed ivisual and plan to make that swing.
Easily 1 off the best instructors on TH-cam have used a few things from ur recent videos and have helped me massively especially my short game 👍🏻 keep them coming mate much appreciated
Matt great lesson when hitting from the fairway , my problem is im only in the fairway 30% of the time. What about when your in the rough or outside of the fairway?
I'm finding that Rick Shiels has helped me to get through the mid 20s HCP but Peter Finch and Particularly Matt Fryer are helping me to get into the teens! Thank you Matt for your amazing tips. You're making a difference!
Hi I am a 13 year old kid and I just got some new clubs for my birthday but I cant hit my 3 wood or my 4 hybrid off of the fairway do you have any advice?
I'm new to your channel Matt, loving the tips/content. I'm an 18 handicapper and most of my shots lost are on my short game... the chip shot with the bunker in front of you is one shot I always fear.... always duff it, hopefully this will help! Thanks 👍
Great vid. Can you answer this please regarding the putting stroke, a lot of people say the back stroke should roughly equal the follow through, however I went for SAM lab putter fitting and they say it should 30:70 ratio?
Love #4. Anything under 50 yds is all lob wedge (unless I’m in a bunker). I’m so comfortable with my lob wedge anywhere under 50 so I walk up to the ball already confident
Outstanding Matt! Excellent instruction. Totally makes good golf play sense. Thank you! I started playing again in November after a 30 year absence. My avg score was 113 And now I am a consistent 102 - 105. Your instructions are working.Thank you!
Matt, I am putting new irons in the bag and they end with a 46 degree PW. My current wedges are 52, 56 and 60 degrees giving me an 8 degree gap between the PW and the GW. Should I consider switching to a 50, 54 and 58 degree to maintain my gaps?
Great content in 20 minutes Matt. Very knowledgeable with basic ideas that are really important for short game success.. One question. You failed to mention what degree club you used over the bunker and in the bunker . Just wondering if you used your 52 on whole video . Thanks again for the great stuff. Keep them coming and I'm spreading your name on the range and after my round in the bar of course.....
What a great video. Thanks Matt. You come across very well but make it look so easy!!! 🤬🤬🤬🤬☹️ Sorry though I’ve just seen a pink elephant 🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘😀😀😀😀😀🤪⛳️👌
I'm 16/17 HCP & chips let me down. I can pick the spot, be positive & hit well but my mishit is a thin shot. Have weight on left etc but somehow thin 50% of my 30-60 yard chips. I have no issue with chip & run as hole many.
I see way to many high to mid handicaps using the wedge around the green to much. 7/8 iron on most of the shots give much better results as long as there’s no high ground/bunkers to go over.
Are greens suppose to be universal to its own course? I haven't figured out how you guage the speed of the greens when they are all different hole to hole..
Great advice. As a high handicap golfer I often duff the ball around the green. My one question is should I drop my lead foot back slightly for those fringe chips over a little rough?
Cheers Matt.....Stockton heath lad here but stranded in Tokyo! Some great courses over here and your tips are certainly helping add to the enjoyment! Thanks and keep em’ coming!
Your course do not have the sand that all you have. Are sand is what we call more of a hard pan sand. If I hit the ball out of the sand the way you show during your instruction tips, I would brake something. So do you have any instruction to hi ot of compacted sand?
Don't mindset. My buddy and I always say "Don't look at the monkey", because if you say that to just about anyone in a halfway serious tone the first thing they do is turn their head and say "What Monkey"?
Good stuff. Could you do something for bare lies in bunkers? A lot of the courses don't have a lot of sand in them at the moment so splashing out isn't an easy option!
Between the three of ya...Rick, Pete, and yourself, you’ve got loads of things to focus on and learn from! I mean just brilliant instructions from all of ya and really fun videos to watch when your together messing around on a course! I absolutely love all your vids and I think you do a fantastic job! Thank you for all of the help. Really need to start focusing on each shot at hand. I get complacent throughout the round and take shots for granted. My most annoying moments are when I’ve hit a fantastic drive and left myself with just a short wedge shot on to the green and I totally “duff” as you would say. I feel I don’t just take a moment longer to focus on the little things and commit to a solid shot. Literally just happened this past weekend lol. For anyone reading I can attest to this...just take a moment and really focus on what your wanting to do with every shot and don’t take any of them for granted. It’s the easiest shots that I can really make a mess of when I’ve set myself up well for a great second shot and just totally blow it. This video is great and something I need to remember to think back on when I’m out. Thanks again for all the great vids!!!
Great tips as always Matt, will get out on the practice green and try them out. I play a very hilly and windy links course, any chance of some tips for dealing with approach shots from up/down/side hill lies sometime?
many bunker shot tips include the distance behind the ball where the club head enters the sand . Was that the box you sort of didn't explain around the ball?
Hi Matt,great info,after your last tip to help with my pull shots i tried it out on course and it worked a treat,i even hit a few shots with my feet together,great result,,many thanks Les
Great video Mat! Just got back to golf after a 20 year break. The shortgame is absolutely murdering my score. This video gave me a really nice reminder if what i once knew!:)
Is it odd that I have the ball a little back from center on those half swing pitches? I really come down on the ball and feel like it when i make contact, which gives me alot of spin. It's more aggressive, than a passive kinda scoop of the ball. Is that a typical technique? (58) 14 bounce
Matt, this is an incredibly in-depth and helpful video. Off the tee I am probably the worst I have been since I started playing again, but your previously wedge video helped so much that my scores have tumbled, this will hopefully improve me further
Matt been a subscriber for a while and your content just keeps getting better! Definitely one of the better coaches on TH-cam and someone who doesn’t do the gimmicks to get the views! Up there with Danny Maude! Keep up the good work and thanks for all the help 👍
Great videos Matt. I've been going through them like hot knife through butter! But, while doing so, I've destroyed a bottle of red so I'm not gonna remember much of it when I play tomorrow :/ Still... great videos :)
I'm not saying I mastered my old school pitching wedge but I use it in almost all pitch and chip situations and have figured out some different approaches with it - it's fun for me
Tatally grateful and appreciate your online tuition.. Old buy here, trying to find my way back after 4 years pause.. you actually illustrate amazingly and simplify. I realize lots of previous tuition just complicate.. Cheers from Denmark
Matt, best short game lesson EVER. Like most mid level 18-20 handicapers I struggle with this. Well no more. Today in Phoenix Az 112 degrees so I had the course to myself. Used your technique and WOW I got it 98 % of the time. Had the course to myself so I practiced several different lies. If I hit a bad one I quickly realized sternum forward to get weight forward. Shot 12 over today. No bump and runs! Thanks for your excellent instructions.
Hi Matt, i follow all of the golfing you tube Lancashire Mafia, aka yourself, shiels, finch and carter, brilliant content from all, but your tutorials are for me the most concise and helpful to improve my game. I salute you sir, keep them coming
Totally grateful and appreciate your simplified and clear take on tuition. I try to find my way back after 4 years good pause, and realize lots of previous tuition (here me in Spain) was mores business protection, than getting players out on their own feet. BIG CHEERS, from and older buy in Denmark, you are 👍
Awesome video Matt, picked up a 56 king cobra Phil Rodgers rusty and it’s really improving my game already, every time I walk the dog I take it with me and 3 prov1
Jesus man, you have the teaching voice of a God. I wish you could have been guiding me in the back of that 95 grand am when I became a man! It might not have been such an awkward disaster, much like my golf swing
Loved this mate! defo something to take into consideration. would absolutely LOVE to get you on the channel with a course vlog one day buddy, only round the corner :D hit me up!
Just used one of the techniques here more upright, toe into the ground. Chipped two in from off the green🙌 that’s one way to solve my putting issues. Took 10 shots of the last round 👏👏Thanks Rick
Pace control has helped my putting so much. I just try to have the mindset to 2 putt everything. If I get the ball within a couple feet of the hole, that's always a win for me. Every once in a while I get one in, but limiting 3 and 4 put holes has helped lower my score a ton.
This is your best video, yet, Matt! Thanks for the positive, concise short game overview. Positive thoughts are CRUCIAL to hitting better golf shots. Looking forward to putting these ideas into practice on the course this week!
Matt fryer, the king of simplicity in online tutorials 👍🏻🏌🏻♂️⛳️😉
Got 3 new wedges this season and love the options they give me around the green.
The best tip that I've ever received for hitting out of the bunker is to really dig in and pretend that the ball is George Washington's face on a $1 bill. When you swing, you want to swipe the entire length of the dollar bill and step forward as you swing all the way through. Gives you a full, detailed ivisual and plan to make that swing.
That’s a good visual! We use a fiver to do that over in England 😉
Easily 1 off the best instructors on TH-cam have used a few things from ur recent videos and have helped me massively especially my short game 👍🏻 keep them coming mate much appreciated
Glad to hear it’s helping!
Matt great lesson when hitting from the fairway , my problem is im only in the fairway 30% of the time. What about when your in the rough or outside of the fairway?

Cracking lesson Matt your channel is a stand out in a large crowd you can always take something away from your videos cheers 👏👏
Thanks Dave glad they are helping you
Hi I am a 13 year old kid and I just got some new clubs for my birthday but I cant hit my 3 wood or my 4 hybrid off of the fairway do you have any advice?
Matt: I’m going to demonstrate speed and how important it is
Holes it from 15 yards
I'm new to your channel Matt, loving the tips/content. I'm an 18 handicapper and most of my shots lost are on my short game... the chip shot with the bunker in front of you is one shot I always fear.... always duff it, hopefully this will help! Thanks 👍

Love #4. Anything under 50 yds is all lob wedge (unless I’m in a bunker). I’m so comfortable with my lob wedge anywhere under 50 so I walk up to the ball already confident
Don’t have a lob wedge so I do an almost flop shot with a 56 degree or PW and a kinda long bump and run which really works out for me
Excellent video Matt. Probably the best short game one I have seen.
Don’t mindest
😂 love this, my short game is awful!!
You aren't alone.
I drive like a champ
And chip like a chump.

This is a brilliant video, had a shocker last week and this put everything into perspective. Looking forward to giving the tips a go next week 👌
NICE PUTT, MATE!! 👍👍 I really appreciate the straightforward nature of your instruction. Can't wait to get in a bunker!!
Cheers!
Im an older duffer and am learning so much as Matt talks to me like a firend and with the information I can use.
Great content in 20 minutes Matt. Very knowledgeable with basic ideas that are really important for short game success.. One question.

Keep them coming and I'm spreading your name on the range and after my round in the bar of course.....
Thanks Dean. Over the bunker I used a 58 as I was pitching it 70% of the way and used same in the bunker 👍
What a great video. Thanks Matt. You come across very well but make it look so easy!!! 🤬🤬🤬🤬☹️ Sorry though I’ve just seen a pink elephant 🐘🐘🐘🐘🐘😀😀😀😀😀🤪⛳️👌
Great instructor, massively beneficial for us!
When I think of a pink elephant, he's on a unicycle, juggling, and has a painted face 🤷🏻♂️
Great video Matt, my short game has been awful recently.
Ace advice, great instruction yet again! Please keep it coming Matt 🏌🏻♂️⛳️

Brilliant short game tips all in one video....Nice one Matt, Thank You!! 👌👍
Too much talking..

In ur video stop writin on the screen what ur saying coz it covers the golf ball and club. Difficult to see the position
Cheers. Good instruction again mate
Thanks Matt !! did you have breakfeast ? It look's early..
many bunker shot tips include the distance behind the ball where the club head enters the sand . Was that the box you sort of didn't explain around the ball?
Excellent video
Great advice with the "master one wedge". The moment my new 54 degree gets here, I'll do just that! Great content as usual!
Your videos are great. You do a great job of explaining things and helping golfers get better. Thank you.
Hi Matt,great info,after your last tip to help with my pull shots i tried it out on course and it worked a treat,i even hit a few shots with my feet together,great result,,many thanks Les
Very important instruction in the excellent video Matt. Quality!
I am guessing there's a different technique to get out of fairway bunkers?
It’s as though Matt watched me play and the video was made just for me! Thanks Matt, great vid!
Mat show us how to chip of no grass mainly dirt over a bunker please??
Great video Mat! Just got back to golf after a 20 year break. The shortgame is absolutely murdering my score.
This video gave me a really nice reminder if what i once knew!:)
She'll matchplaygolf
Good points. Will be practicing them tm. Tks
Good work Robert hope it improves the shortgame
Thanks Robert, enjoy the practice
Hi your video help a lot but pl do tell what club u use which is very important Thanks a lot
Twenty foot circle and leave yourself a putt. Great advice👍
My short game used to be pretty reasonable Matt but you have given sound advice again
like your style;. into the tips very quickly. Thanks
Great tips and what a great putt Matt.......by the way I spotted your deliberate spelling error......Putting SPPED Control 😁 do I get a prize ? 😂🏌️♂️

Thanks Michael, really appreciate it!
What do u think about ball in the middle of ur stance since Phil says never do it
Great videos Matt. I've been going through them like hot knife through butter! But, while doing so, I've destroyed a bottle of red so I'm not gonna remember much of it when I play tomorrow :/
Still... great videos :)
just bring some franzia your game, duh
Exactly my problem - the short pitch and the first put. Mastering one wedge is a good tip to practice. Will it it a go.
I'm not saying I mastered my old school pitching wedge but I use it in almost all pitch and chip situations and have figured out some different approaches with it - it's fun for me
Iiiooi
The real trick is don't hit a shot that sets you up for a 50 yard shot. :D
Informative video Matt, so I’ve subscribed. Keep up the good work 👍
Thanks Robert loads more coming
Tatally grateful and appreciate your online tuition.. Old buy here, trying to find my way back after 4 years pause.. you actually illustrate amazingly and simplify. I realize lots of previous tuition just complicate.. Cheers from Denmark
100% yip fix= feel weight of the CLUBHEAD... Don't hit ball, swing 'head weight' thru 😘💪💪💪
Did you have to put the ball in the hole in point 5.... burn! :)
I note on the edge of the green there is a bare spot. Any hints on shot from a place like that
Great Video Matt

Thanks for your clear instructions! Can’t wait to apply them. Will keep you posted of my progress. Much appreciation.
Sweet vid! what kind of nike shoes are you wearing here?
further to bunker shots; any hints on flat lie in the bunker like at the edge of it
Really great instruction Matt. You make it look easy. Can’t wait to practice these drills
That’s my aim, tuff enough this game
Hey Matt , do u still do lessons online , I need to book one thanks
Recent subscriber, really enjoying the lessons and tips! Good job
Welcome and glad you’re liking them! Plenty more to come
Great set of tips Matt, been working the short game lately and become confident with the gap wedge for most of my shots.
Awesome Dale! It’s great when you have that go to club
The best. Thanks!

Thanks Matt great short game lesson. Answered all my questions in one lesson.
Glad it was a help
Thanks for this. The putting info was especially good IMO.
Thanks Matt! As always your videos really help me prepare for my lessons. I get so much more out of my live lessons.
My pleasure Greg
Jesus man, you have the teaching voice of a God. I wish you could have been guiding me in the back of that 95 grand am when I became a man! It might not have been such an awkward disaster, much like my golf swing

Glad you enjoyed it. Good luck with the channel 👍
@@Mattfryergolf Always do fella, thanks!
Excellent advice, pick a go to wedge. 👍
Just used one of the techniques here more upright, toe into the ground. Chipped two in from off the green🙌 that’s one way to solve my putting issues. Took 10 shots of the last round 👏👏Thanks Rick
Great advice Matt, so simple but we make it hard for ourselves
Exactly break it down in to easy steps and see more success
literally the worst part of my game right now.
Great lesson!! I apply those swings toughs and I play lots of golf every day, subscribed, great vid
