If you have a question about your game and want us to do a video about it. Let us know below and we will select one. 👍🏻
I am consistently heavy/fat on my full fairway bunker shots, especially short irons or wedges. Do you have any specific set up, grip, posture, or swing thoughts to improve the ball contact? Thanks for the great videos. I’ve learned a lot from your videos.
I'm struggling with bunkers still. Can you give me any specific tips for bunkers with high sides especially around the greens. I love your new training aid, where can I buy one?
I would love to send you guys a video of my swing to dissect it a bit - I'm striking pretty consistently rn (6i - 90+ mph club speed - 120 ish mph ball speed - carry 165-180 - usually hit a draw but the miss is a pull draw) I just started getting serious about golf start of May and took a few lessons, my swing overall feels pretty good but if you could see my swing straight on I really struggle controlling my wrists in the backswing and even though my lead arm stays straight my club is almost always parallel to the ground if not pointing downwards towards the ground at the top of my backswing. Somehow, when I come through I'm able to time everything up and get a pretty good strike but I am concerned about the longevity and future consistency of my swing due to the over hinging wrists. I've tried a few things to really keep that wrist in line with the forearm to promote a 90 degree angle between the club and arm but it feels terrible and ruins my rhythm. Would like to know if my backswing is manageable and playable for the long term or what I might need to do to improve the consistency and longevity of my swing!
Hey 👋 fellas, glad to have you on this side of the pond! What took you so long 😉?! Guys, I need some serious help with my shoulders and upper body opening up too soon in the transition and start of the downswing. This brings the hands and club out toward the ball too far (just past half way between the toe line and the ball) and I have to compensate by standing up out of posture and raising the handle just to make contact with the ball. Strike, direction, and distance usually suffer 🤦🤬. Not quite OTT because I still have, barely, an In to Out path but just too close the ball. I’ve tried Sergio’s tip of “pulling the chain” down but I just end up “yanking” the chain down fast and hard, screwing up my sequence. Y’all have anything for me to feel and keep the shoulders from opening up too soon and the club getting steep because of it? Thanks 🙏!!!!!
Tempo, spine angle, angle of attack on the ball cause all those problems. Arms are influencing too much. From what I’ve noticed in a swing the arms will naturally realign if you allow the body to just do it’s thing in the swing. Bring the club back, turn shoulder, keep left arm straight and get to the top feeling the hips coil, keep that weight inside the right foot pausing ever so slightly to store the energy and prep transfer, initiate hips which starts shoulder turn to unravel your coil, keep left arm straight, let hands naturally come down(straightened left arm guides club head naturally back), push toward target with the back foot(completes power transfer combining all that force to go through ball) and get that to feel smooth(this increases longevity of one’s swing as well because it is not forced it’s natural). Start slow at first to feel it and when comfy gradually speed it up. Yardages will increase, more flush shots will happen, will become more accurate. Thing that’s irritating is easy to understand but difficult to physically apply consistently. The swing is a pendulum literally(tempo based). Other tips that help, start with half swings get smooth flush strikes feel the tempo then 3/4 swings then full swings. I prefer wedges to start(shortest swing) and go up the club ladder. This helps understand tempo with each club their subtle differences. Fairway bunkers you have to get the club to shallow and is not a downward strike on the ball. The ball will literally go maybe 10-30 yds or so by doing that. these steps can help for all shots and help shallow the club naturally. Fats happen from too steep an angle(consciously hitting down on ball, squatting too much, club getting too low before impact), thins/skulls are too shallow of an angle(lifting up, not staying in the swing club, head too high at impact) the swing is not supposed to be conscious it’s supposed to be fluid, smooth and natural. Once the smooth feel is established then increasing speed, more power generation can be done. Going back to fundamentals is always a good choice in any sport. I struggle as well I’m not perfect I hit plenty off poop shots everyone does even pros. Just don’t over swing too much if any and kill your back and don’t try to kill it, the body supply’s plenty of power naturally combining all that. Hope all that helps someone it’s helped me a lot over the years thanks from these dudes and a few others here on TH-cam.
Thanks guys, these are some really good tips and this is what I struggle with the most, so I will try these next time on the range
Hope this helps Alan! 👍🏻
Congrats on the move to San Diego. I could tell you guys always liked that area. Wide to narrow is something I need to work on. Headed to the driving range this a.m. to work on this. Thanks for the great content as always.
“Close the gap” is what I’ve just started working on the last couple weeks and the results in my ball striking have been crazy. It’s also stopped me pulling shots and got me hitting along my alignment which is something I’ve struggled with for a long time. I’ve been focusing on re-centering (closing the gap) BEFORE I finish my backswing. Just before I reach the top I start getting weight forward then start my downswing. I do recommend trying it
Great video. All f these things are key. Creating that “width”, without moving off of the ball, is probably the hardest one to get the hang of.
This is a really great video! As someone being fairly new to golf, concentrating on these 3 things has helped me a lot so far.
Great video guys! Thanks for the tip! Struggling with my irons a bit recently and realize now I was breaking my wrist too early in the backswing! Glad to have you now in The States! Enjoy the weather!
Thank you for explaining “close the gap”, so many times I hear this comment and have no idea to what the tutor is referring. As a complete beginner I need every term explained and demonstrated! Bless you for this I have a lesson this morning and will try this out. 😊🏌️♀️
Great tips guys, as usual. Thanks
Great tips as usual! Thanks.
Just starting to really master all of these, and I’m shooting my lowest scores ever. You’re 100% correct in that they’re the most difficult things for amateurs to do. If you were to expand on any of them, I would further discuss twisting the hips and then torso in the backswing, not swaying. And also the wrist set & release. A lot of amateurs don’t set their wrists, or understand that the back of their top hand is equivalent to their club face, leading to open faces and big fades.
Great stuff guys. You always do a great job.
Wow, welcome to San Diego! My home! I have really improved my game with your tips and techniques. Really love how you change one small thing at a time and then put it all together.
Thanks. Love it here and will be happy to avoid the cold winters in the UK
I'm an "ok" golfer from the tee to 100yds. 99yds and less...i struggle. I shoot high 80's normally. But i'd LOVE to get my handicap to single digits. Improving my short game is the key. Thanks for any help. 👍
Excellent explanation!
Hey guys, thanks so much for all the amazing content. I struggle with hitting my irons thin which results in a low ball flight majority of the time. Some guidance would be greatly appreciated!
v nicely explained , surely shall follow n get good shots, thanx
Thanks. Let us know how you get on!
Awesome stuff as always guys.
Thanks Stu. Hope all is well mate.
you guys in SD now! that's awesome hope to run into you guys!
Great video, think we are all looking at improving the strike of our irons as it is critical in controlling the distance. Congratulation on the new location
So true. Thanks Darren.👍🏻
Top notch quality video lads! Thank you great content
Glad you enjoyed it Ashan
Very helpful really helped
Thanks Len. Glad this helped.
Between you both and Danny Ihave learned so much on the takeawy. Good luck in the USA I could think of worst places to be. Cheers Boys
Thanks!! Appreciate the comment and excited to be here and continue to to create content for you guys.
There’s no better country on the PLANET. Period.
Glad to see you boys having the time of your lives in the USA cheers from matt & echo at the Astbury
Cheers boys. Hope you're both enjoying the weather there. Missing seeing you guys early morning!!
As I junior golfer I'm getting way better with video like this
Bravo!
Another video lads. Would love to see a video on distance control on longer putts and a few drills 👍
Thanks Steven. Appreciate the question too. Definitely one to talk about.
Either side of the pond, their golf instruction is excellent 👍👌
Thanks! Appreciate to support!
Well done guys 🏌♂️ 🙂
Thanks Roy. Hope you are well!!?
the thing you realize once you get it is that you know it. there's no mystery in it anymore once you figure out how to compress the insides out of the ball, it's just a matter of doing it every time then. easier said than done. it
Congrats on the move guys!
Thanks Daniel.
Enjoy San Diego some great golf courses and incredible food!!!
Dang! The Grand! Hook me up with a tee time 😂 welcome to SD. Happy you are here!
Yes its a great place Mark. Thanks! Love it here!
I'm a beginner golfer i want to go for pga tour
My man Piers got to California and got hooked up with a badass barber! Beard is looking clean chap!
I struggle with the change from wide takeaway to narrow downswing, moving inside to outside to the golf ball, as shown in your video. As many drills to help with this would be appreciated - separate video for this? Thanks chaps as always 👍
Guess i’m going to San Diego this year!
I always enjoy watching your Guys videos but how do to stop from hitting out on the toe? I’ve noticed I’ve been hitting lot of my irons out the toe, keep up the good work guys cheers 🍻
Thanks for the question. Glad you enjoy the vids!
Hello Meandmygolf I love ye're channel but I'd like ye to do a video on the correct grip size
I’ve been trying to get more of an upward attack angle when hitting driver, but doing so I find myself putting more pressure on my back foot, causing me to hit the ground before hitting the ball. Any tips or drills to remedy this?
Ok, 68 yo retiree whose golf advocate son outfitted me with clubs 18 months ago and REALLY wants me to pick up this game. Have had trouble with consistency (fat/thin etc) and almost never take a divot even under the ball much less ahead. So, thanks for the explanation(s). Of these, grip I have ok, width is partway there (setting the club needs to be more purposeful at that midpoint), but this is the first time I’ve had anyone tell me about closing the gap to bring your lead side vertical at the start of the downswing. I can see how this has potential to really help me. I have had people tell me not to slide my hips, but still to end on my lead foot. That’s been difficult to accomplish, as you might imagine. So the purposeful setting of the club and the purposeful closing of the gap have tied up some loose ends for me. It seems like it would be easier to sequence your way than how I was trying. Now to go outside this evening and do some swings to try it out.
Update after a dozen or two foam balls in the yard: definitely helped balance, even to the point on a few swings I had to step downrange with my trail foot. The grass was too tall to see much about ball strike, but I am looking forward to running over to the range this morning. The setting of the club helped too - I had occasionally had that happen right but so many things were going on I couldn’t pin down the way to make it happen intentionally. Thanks much!
Another great video. How do I get that striker towel?
Here is a link for you Howard🙌 shop.meandmygolf.com
Congratulations on the move gents, everything is better in the sun 😎
My suggestion for a video woud be how to stop toe strikes. I can set up to shank it and still hit the toe ☹ Thanks again for all your help.
Thanks Mark. Appreciate the suggestion too.
I need lessons from you.
To quote that great folk group Mama's & Papa's - MAMG is "California Dreaming".
Could you do one on driver setup and swing please? I have a mate who has just started playing and is having trouble with his driving (slicing). He is getting disenchanted with golf and I know he loves playing, so I would hate to see him give it away.
Love the channel lads. Keep up the great work 👍
Thanks for the suggestion Roy! Tell your friend to also check out our "How To Play Golf" series on our website. That will really help him.
@@meandmygolf. already have sent him that 👍you guys helped my game so much. Thanks legends
would love a towel like that!
It’s launching this August Kevin with some other great training aids.
hello coaches, thank you for your so helpfull videos. question if you don't mind : where should I have my glance during downswing ? on the back of the golf ball, middle of it or In front of it on the divot area ?
I believed most pro don't pay attention to this, they just look at the ball generally and not really focus on very specific part. Too focus on the ball will make you forget about the real target which is 100 yards in front and not down there.
Love this question and it's something we get asked quite often. Dizzy is spot on with this answer too. Great video to talk about though!
Thank you for your feedbacks ! Yes, you're right Dizzy, professionals golfers are certainly focus on the target and less on the ball but...I'm not so good, far from it actually ! And since I look at the ground contact zone instead of the golf ball itself when I'm in the bunker, then I guess it could be important to have professional's advices.
Cheers gents. Do you guys have any drills/tips/sensations for keeping connection of the right upper arm and torso throughout the golf swing?(helping to lessen the over the top move at the beginning of the down swing)?
Hi Matthew. The right upper arm does need to be so connected to the torso. Take a look in this video where I talk about the arm. It is more about the angle of the arm and the rotation in the shoulder.
@@meandmygolf. Sorry, did you mean "... arm doesn't need ..."? Thanks for the video!
i have trouble getting the face square on impact with driver and woods.
I loved this video!! Is there a way for us to order that towel?
Thanks Ben. The towel will be available in early August with a few other great training aids. Stay tuned.
Here you go Ben!👍 shop.meandmygolf.com
Who wants to see Andy and Piers vs Good Good, Danny, and Rick? A YT Golf showdown!
I would love some help / advice. I’m a relatively new golfer (about 10 months), and i have the basic mechanics down pretty well. My HUGELY ANNOYING issue is, i can’t make clean contact with the ball, when the ball is there.. let me explain… i can make absolutely beautiful practice swings, every time. Even take divots. But when i put ball down, i cannot make clean contact. I can’t hit my 7 farther than 140 yards, and can’t break 100mph ball speed. So i know how to swing, and every once and a while i make DECENT contact and it goes 140 because of the club face angle at impact, but i can’t get past this plateau. I need some secret drills to do or something. Any help is appreciated
Love the vids fellas!!! Would love to buy some gear if you guys sell it!!
ALSO AMATEURS, go get fitted!!! Can tell you shafts make ALL THE DIFFERENCE, I went from pushing every single iron and not getting proper distance etc all due to the flex in my shafts. Dropped easily 10 strokes off my game. Off the rack clubs are your worst enemy, if your serious about getting better, get lessons, get fitted. Have fun!
Thanks! We have some training aids coming out in August that are awesome. Clothing would be great at some point too. Stay tuned.

How can I stop hooking the ball? My grip is neutral.
I need a drill to help me extend my arms, both the backswing and the follow thru. My friend calls it , alligator arms. And welcome to the USA
Great suggestion Michael! Thanks
How long before you guys are wearing shorts?
Straight away Simmo. Gotta get these English legs tanned😂
@@meandmygolf. Thats how folks knew me when I emigrated in 1967, doesn’t take long to get em tanned.
Please address this one = Over angle between arms vs club shaft .... and NO angle between the two .... + WHERE is the middle/right setup there?? .... perhaps 8 iron vs Driver....
How to stop hooking my hybrids........
I understand your 90 degree left arm with some space from body, but does that jive with the idea of putting a towel under your arm drill?
Towel goes under the left arm
I would say that you can go too far with a towel. It is doable though as long as you avoid folding the right arm too much.
Great video, lots of really good tips, but I could not help not hear anything apart from the drilling or digging sound, it was so annoying..!
Apologies for that noise. Will bare that in mind for next time
Guys PLEASE HELP... I'm a 10 handicap and have been playing since I was 5 years old. I've become so inconsistent with my irons with a steep down swing, that I'm about to just put the bag in the closet for good. So frustrated.
so what about your families ? - are they also in the US now ?
Piers' wife is here but otherwise its just me .
