Any ideas on my situation regarding aim? I set up with my feet aimed slightly right with slightly closed or inline shoulders for a slight draw. If I hit it good which is probably 65% of the time with either a slight draw as desired, lighting the ball slightly to the right, drawing back to my intended target or I'll hit the ball relatively straight relative to my setup alignment, resulting in landing slightly right to the target. However, my most common miss which happens maybe 25% of the time, which is a push to the right because I left the club face slightly open relative to my swing path which is already aiming slightly right. About 5% of the time I'll hit a low hook and the other 5% of the time I hit my worst shot with a massively open face with still an in to out path, resulting in a high flyer starting right and then fading even further right due to the terrible swipy in to out path with an open face. However, my problem with this is that I prefer to setup for a baby draw, aimed slightly right, with slightly closed or neutral shoulders but with my right and left toes pointing slightly outward to allow for some freedom the ability to really get a nice long connected backswing with some width at the top and then drop the club with the downswing compression pushing into the ground, clearing my body and hips due to my flexibility. However, since my most common miss is that push to the right, if I try and counter act that and aim left, things seem to get inconsistent because aiming left I don't feel comfortable with the baby draw setup whilst aiming left, so often times I'll hit my straight shot or baby draw and end up a good bit left. Sometimes though aiming left will subconsciously make me hit a fade and I end up actually hitting a nice shot but it's a total diff shot than my go to, so less consistent. So aiming left I could end up trying to compensate too much and end up hitting more down on the ball from out to in hitting a low cut that can sometimes end up leaking quite a bit more right at the end of the ball flight where the beginning part looked ok. In my case should I continue setting up aiming slightly right for my baby draw and just try and manage face to path to limit those right pushes? This seems the most comfortable and consistent to me despite the fact that my common miss is that push right while aiming right. Would love to hear your thoughts.
That is great advice. The only problem is when I aim left to compensate for my slice, I make great contact and it goes left. The next hole I aim straight and it goes right.
@@sasquatch8923 also can use the tee box to your advantage. In this video, a slicer really should start at the right side of the tee box, aiming back across the fairway to the left edge. This gives you the widest possible dispersion that is in the fairway, a straight shot won't run through since the angle makes it further, and a cut and even slice will find the center of fairway to right edge.
Hi, is there any way to adapt lumberjack skills in a good golf swing, by which, I mean, is using biceps for power and faster ball speed and further distance?
Consistency is my problem. I don't have a consistent miss. Beyond that, the K stance for driver confuses my baseball brain. I can hit my irons really well, but my driver is relatively short compared to my iron distances.
Personally I feel you need to have the lofty goal of ‘best’ not ‘average, especially when taking in consideration distance control with out irons etc. The goal is to reach our potential so if we are thinking average we will get average.
I get what you are saying, but the more average shots you hit, success will follow. The error rate will reduce over time and your average shot will actually become good shots. No sense going for broke on every shot and end up in trouble 9 out of 10 times. I never improved until I learned what my limits were.
Don't mistake this from trying to be better. We are still working hard to be our very best but it's so rare we hit our target with any shot so it's very smart (not negative) to aim to allow for a miss. This way, over the course of a whole round we are way more consistent. The best players in the world do this so well and most amateurs are trying to hit the perfect shot when they are less likely to hit it. Strive to be your best but manage your game with reality. Hope that makes sense?
As for putting routine, it shouldn't need to be said (but it does): Read the green as you're walking up to your ball. Read the green while others are putting. Be quick about it. One of my playing partners probably takes an 30 seconds more on the green than the rest of us. He single-handedly adds 9 minutes to our rounds. Annoying for us, and for the groups behind us.
The pure mental anxiety I feel on the course is what's holding me back. I got a hole in one last round but the fact I could not hit a ball off the tee ruined me. I don't know how to fix it.
@@meandmygolf. I have watched your videos and they have been helpful I just can't make it work on the tee. I can't understand why everyone else makes it look easy. I slow down, I aim left, I do everything every video tells me to do yet my execution I top it all the time.
RAP putting...😂, if you want to read a green, do the full clock face. Get there quickly and walk the full 360 degrees around the flag, pick an apex point and hit it over that.
1. You know, if you play more right and aim more left you will play more to the right. 2. ✔ 3. ✔Speed is the King, aiming the Queen. I think that you first check the distance, then the slope and then the break. 4. ✔I think that the good players atack the flag. If you don't, you will always remain a mediocre player. It's also about trusting your own golf swing. If something doesn't work out, you have to accept it and you get better at bunker play etc. 5. ✔ 6. ✔ 7. ✔why does a golf pro wear sweatpants?😅
Thanks!
Fantastic. You guys honestly show and explain mechanics perfectly. The best coaching I have seen. Thank you for all the videos.
Thank you for 7 very valuable tips.
Clear, easy to follow explanations which are easy to follow.
This video was really worth watching. Shows faults of most of us. This is a must for all standards of golfers.
It’s a hel of a lot to be thinking about in a round lol but much appreciated especially tip 1 play to your shape

Can we get together (small crowd funding?) to buy Piers some trousers? It appears his current trousers have had a row with his shoes.
Lets start that up😂😂
They’re just overly long shorts
😂
Trousers? 🤣 tf?
It’s the stick-man junk in the second segment that really sells this
Love you guys I do all of these

10:22 I see you guys, I really see you hahaha
We see you Kenneth!!😂😂
Last Tip very 👍 👍.
That is great advice. The only problem is when I aim left to compensate for my slice, I make great contact and it goes left. The next hole I aim straight and it goes right.
That happens to me too.
Only aim a little left. It's rare we git the golf ball where we want to so it's just about managing your game consistently better over the round.
@@meandmygolf. Thanks guys. Playing nine tonight and I'll give it a go! You have really helped my game, especially chipping.

@@TXSooner518 Right on. I will give that a try today, playing 18 at 5.
Tip 3 is gold!!!

Thanks alot Brother. I will..🙏☕️
Hope this helps.
This is me every time I play ( like most golfers). Great content gents.
I would love a personal lesson. 🤞🏻 ⛳️
Thanks Dave! If you are near San Diego. You are welcome anytime.
Brilliant guys 👍
Absolutely love it Rick! You could make a fortune hiring it out. Good luck
Great advice,
Thanks. Hope this helps.
Brilliant guys thanks 👍
Tip 4 is solid.
Consistency is my problem. I don't have a consistent miss.
Beyond that, the K stance for driver confuses my baseball brain. I can hit my irons really well, but my driver is relatively short compared to my iron distances.
The first few hole I play I always hit the ball to the left. After that I am okay, why?
Most important thing about putting is to learn pace on putting practice 30/40 footers most of us can't read greens
Personally I feel you need to have the lofty goal of ‘best’ not ‘average, especially when taking in consideration distance control with out irons etc. The goal is to reach our potential so if we are thinking average we will get average.

Which course is this
Golf course
What if you have a two way miss?
Another great vid, thanks guys! And ugh, having my own shadow over the ball is something I need to see a psychiatrist about! Messes me up every time!
Yes I know how you feel, certain shadows put me off too.
As for putting routine, it shouldn't need to be said (but it does): Read the green as you're walking up to your ball. Read the green while others are putting. Be quick about it.

i think in general there needs to be more videos on how to play ready golf
Totally agree. The earlier you can build a proper picture of the green, the better. You get a great visual from farther away too.
Yes, and thank you for saying this.
Funny to watch great golfers demo "bad shots", in this case the accel chip... it looks like a good movement when Andy does it LOL
😂😂 Yes this is the number one chipping fault!! It is the killer go good chipping.
The pure mental anxiety I feel on the course is what's holding me back. I got a hole in one last round but the fact I could not hit a ball off the tee ruined me. I don't know how to fix it.
We have a podcast going live next week that will help. Check out the ones we also did with Karl Morris.

My main problem is 3 PUTTING from 30+ feet and making solid contact with the PUTTER face?
Excellent video ~ Thank you!!
Thanks Brian. What mistake did you make?

For #1, don’t play your slice-fix your slide.
Fix your slice on the range. Play with it on the course otherwise you'll be losing balls out of round right.😂
This is definitely good for 20-30 handicaps
This is good for scratch golfers and tour pros. All the difference is the margins. This is what the best all do.
When I aim left because I miss right I will 100% hit it straight into a tree, bunker, water lol.
Looks a bit too exaggerated at the golf course there 😅😂
6 inch on a good day, 5 on a cold day. Gotta plan my dates with that in mind
Shoe lace "belt" came from skateboarding Iykyk
1st one; aim your ball flight to your body. Great if ...you know where the fuck it's going to go.
Ohhhh I can 3 putt from there
So you just added 30 minutes to a 4 hour round with your putting suggestions 😢😢😢
😂😂😂. Just dont take as long as me. You can do this fast.
On Sunday had 10 pars, and 8 silly mistakes. Shot a 85. WTF!!!!! Missed 4 birdie putts 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Last Friday played 9 holes 17 points only scored on 6 holes.
The "K Bomb"....really?
Stop making these simple mistakes? No. Simply, no. 😂
Dude your wife called and she wants he pants back. Dork.
Great video overall. But the subtitling is horrendous. Just make full sentences instead of word for word. Its barely readable
Thanks Frank. Will look at the Subtitles. TH-cam do it automatically.
