    Matt,
    Started playing a year ago and in the last few months I’ve consistently shot in the low 90s. After adopting JOMO I’ve broken 90 on my last three rounds and shot a 10 over par this past week. I’m a solid ball striker and put myself in good position off of the tee. I’ve been making silly approach shots and losing many strokes to putting. I feel confident I can move into single digits if I commit to JOMO and work on my lag putting

  • @TheTurdEye
    @TheTurdEye 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

    Broke 90 as a 3rd year golfer, this was my goal for this season.
    I did it by leaving the driver at home and tee off with the 3 wood.
    I practiced the big stick at the range a couple of times and I found a key that makes me hit straigth bombs!!!
    Yesterday was the first round using it all drivable holes and I putted for eagle two times and chipped around the green for eagle 2 times as well !
    Missed 2 eagles by an inch!!!
    I am now seeing another level of "the glimpse of my potential" !!!
    My friend was amazed! And so was I !
    WHATALIFE!!!!

    Love it. I'm an extremely high handicap player in the '30s right now. I can't shoot less than a hundred and I think a lot of it has to do with confidence of clubs. My drives are awful my irons are good to the green and I can 2-putt with the best of them. Maybe I just have to come to the conclusion this is the best I'll ever be. But your videos are very helpful thank you

    • @James-xf4pc

      @@FlankerJackChannel if you're talking only about your driver, I think I have the answer. I think I've been doing the same thing! On your driver, do not set it on the ground but instead hover it behind the ball. Set up behind the ball with the driver on the ground, then raise it slightly, you will notice that it will be contacting the heel. Either set up on the toe or hover the club. Took me 40 years to learn. Still practicing. Good luck an most of all have fun. Or quit. 🙂

    • @paulh7589
      @paulh7589 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Believe it or not, the putting stroke is a microcosm of the full swing. Go spend 10-15 minutes on the practice green before you even think about hitting a full shot on the range. Start on the range with your low irons and work up to the driver. Hit 50 to 80 shots a day for a month. Your own bio-feedback is better than any pro can teach you. And remember that even practice is fun!
