Hey Matty. Have you noticed how many TH-cam content providers have started shouting about toe down chipping. What I find amazing is that only you have shared a nod to both Paul Runyan and Ray Floyd it seems the others think they invented it ! Great work playa please don’t change a thing
@@joshcaldwell6787 exactly my point but Matty has often explained that Runyann invented it and his previous nods show that he also read Floyd’s book as well as promoted it.
I’ve learned to become more zen and lost my golfing ego thanks to Matty. Played a 200 yard par 3 today into a slight headwind. I knew I had been striking my irons like crap all day so I hit a buttery 5 wood to 10 feet. My friends were all calling me a wussy for not hitting a 5 iron like I normally would. I was the only one to hit the green
These types of stories about other golfers boggle my mind. Did they really do that? It’s so hard for me to believe because i play with playas. lol using the correct club for the conditions as if that’s being a wussy lol no wonder people never improve at golf!
Matty… you inspired me to become a “GAINT”. That is the thought I have as I play a round. G = GIOTG A = Align to Goal Post I = In play always N = No 3 putts T = Trust your 9 out of 10 club
My buddy laughed at me because I was using a putter/hybrid 20 yards in the fairways grass onto the green. He duffed his chip and I rolled right up there… and the toe down chipping…. It’s a work in progress but I love it. My chipper stays in the bag-ola. Much Thanks from OH-IO
Know what else mega works 200%? Your lovely music… for birdies and pars… last time I played, I drained a few long, unlikely putts… just before I putted joked “is this a gimee?” And without thinking, your birdie 🐦 music started playing in my head… and Matty boom boom… in the cup… 87! Real happy! First time in a while. Good work, great channel!
Hey Matty! Watched your your video Saturday before going out to play on Sunday morning… my 63 year old knee hurting a bit so decided to follow your “lazy” advice and go out with no expectations for a good round. Told my usual buds that I’d be no threat in beating them for our championship belt that low man takes home every week because of the knee…. Guess who came home with the belt… lowest score of my 43 years of golf… 7 over par! Thanks for all the great advice … love your channel 👍👊
there's something soothing about your videos that is so relaxing and peaceful. I'm not sure what it is. Maybe it's that your just being yourself and not trying too hard to impress us which you do. Great content and information as always for us amateur golfers trying to break 90!
Matty, I flew from Denver to KL to visit the swing guru Eric (22hrs flight time). It was worth it. With a simple body structure change to stop my head collapsing forward - which I could have never diagnosed myself - he has me hitting a baby draw for the first time in my life. Whaddaman. I feel much more equipped now to tackle the course in the Way of the Playa. Thanks man and would love to host you in Denver for a round if you ever make it out.
What i find so enticing about your videos is your laissez faire attitude that works well for you. You make 75 look so easy. It's how golf should be. No need to kill the ball. I am trying to break that habit. The 1/10 times ill hit a drive 310 makes me feel slightly better than 8 drives going 275-290, however its one time vs eight. I appreciate your videos, as its taught me a lot
Always good practical advice. One thing with golfers who are not quite that good is that often the shots they end up with are more difficult to do something with. It's one of those golf course management things, whereas sometimes you get difficult lies or shots, but you hit the ball there, so you can't blame the wind, a bad bounce, a blister; you name I've heard it. No excuses in other words. I was out of it earlier with a db, but I did not quit, though I felt like it. There was a 3-way tie for first and I came in clear 4th. Not great but I did not give up, which is most important. So just take every bad shot with a certain aplomb and visualize the shot as you should have hit it as Matt suggests.
i have been watching your videos since 2017, all your videos has help me improve my game time to time! i really appreciate your effort in creating good golf videos to help others enjoy golf! cheers mate!
Hey MattyI've been inputting your mental game for a while now and I'm getting much better. Its not overnight but it's a process of reprogramming your brain. And Sunday I had two awesome things happen scored my lowest score of my life 82 on a difficult course and another first of my life I got my first hole in one. Love your Channel keep it up Matty boom boom
Congrats on your HIO. I witnessed one 2 days ago. Wish it was mine but so happy to see my playing partner make it. It was a joy just to see it. Keep playing and go get another one.
Me too, I have suggested to my lads I play golf with regularly to see some genuinely helpful golf advice go to Matty-boy's channel. I havent went quite as calling them boyfriends though!!!!🤣🤣🤣
I’ve never heard this 80% effort, 80% of the time, but I get it…growing up playing baseball it was drilled into me 110% effort, 100% of the time. But this 80/80 makes so much sense for golf, a once a week player. I’m headed out now, gonna take this advice today and see how it goes! 👌
Honestly, this is exactly my game. I sometimes have delusions of grandeur that I will break par playing once every two weeks. But the best rounds are those nice little bobby ross accidents where I break 80 (twice a year).
Love the content! Big fan! Index down to 5.2 now. Playing stress free golf! I’ll come out to Thailand if you’ll coach me up to scratch golf for a video!
I haven't watched a Matty Boom Boom video in a while and I realized my golf ego was creeping up again, and my golf enjoyment was going down. Going out to play today with hopefully some more ZEN then ego Playa! Thanks for all you do!!
Saturday I played a strokeplay comp at my club and shot 80 on a par 68 for the first time as a 20 handicapper. First time playing for a month, phone was dead so i couldn't get exact distances so i wasn't expecting anything special which took the pressure off, i just played to get it puttable in regulation and ended up winning the nett trophy
So so true.....the days Ive gone out and just not cared and relaxed my mind us the times Ive shot 73, 74 or 75.....not a care in the world and just having fun. So true....but also with a nice shot of vodka relaxing me lol.
Had a buddy recommend your channel to me a few months ago. Was averaging high 90s but wasn’t able to break it. Your videos helped so much I finally broke 90 last week! I recommend you to everyone I know that watches TH-cam golf! Keep rocking Sir!!! ⛳️🏌️
You obviously haven't been watching him long. He doesn't do swing instructions. He believes that is something you need to get personally for your swing from a Pro. He tells you how to score well with your CURRENT game.
Take the advice of Jack Nicklaus. He learned to play with what he called his "swing de jour". Instead of trying to swing the same each day, figure out how your swinging each day, and play with that. Worked out pretty well for him!
Have you tried aimpoint express - awesome for picturing the line (of course you still have to start the ball where you mean to and get the right speed!). A friend of mine taught me the green speed trick but 3 strokes, inside of right foot, outside of right foot, comfortable (repeatable) distance outside the right foot (of course then you have up and down slopes, grain, wind…… putting is hard man 😂)
WAIT... I Just started Toe Down Chipping and you are going back to traditional chipping... please give some of your thoughts for the change back... 6 month watcher, recent subscriber... Thank you
I shot 46 on the front the other day (which I know Im better)...lost 2 balls...thought to myself "This is NOT the way of the Playa". Got into some of my Sidekick thoughts...Confidentiality showed up...made the back 9 my Biotch for the evening...37 on the back for 83 😎
Fairly new to golf and absolutely new to golf on TH-cam. This man has made my game much better by using course management, toe down chipping, and having a positive mind set. Im shooting in the 70’s and I only know how far my pitching wedge goes (135) and driver (270). None of my local courses have a driving range and I haven’t picked up a range finder yet. If I can figure out my clubs distances I know I’ll do much better. Also your calm and accepting demeanor reminds me of Bob Ross. Can’t get enough of these videos.
That's great for not playing long. You must be a naturally talented athlete. The easiest, cheapest, and fastest way I've found to get all your distances, is to do an online search for a Trackman equipped range and go there. I've tried pacing off yardages, shooting yardages with a range finder and using yardage books. The Trackman range will save you time and probably money (depending on the range). You'll need the (free) Trackman app on your phone to hook up to the range, then you'll need to hit about five balls with each club to get a distance for that club. The app can keep track of the distances for each club for you. If you try it, remember to use the "convert" to premium ball option, because that will give you a more accurate distance. Get those yardages nailed down and keep practicing your short game! Best of luck to you.
This is the only TH-cam channel on golf you should watch Once I stopped watching the other shit and following the advice of the Great Mojodulah Matty Boom Boom my game improved
Hey Boom Boom have you heard of a lauch monitor is Korea that South side. Called Waze. I seen the video have asleep and then can’t remeber the exact name
Love the Leonardo thing. 🖼️🏌️ Had a fun round today. 11/14 in playa off the tee and pretty good iron play. Chipping and putting is still a work in progress. 🫤. It was a new course for me. I was hitting my targets with my normal chipping clubs only to see the ball run by the flag or off the green. Need to react and adapt better.
Hey Matty. Have you noticed how many TH-cam content providers have started shouting about toe down chipping. What I find amazing is that only you have shared a nod to both Paul Runyan and Ray Floyd it seems the others think they invented it ! Great work playa please don’t change a thing
Luke Donald advocates toe-down chipping in this new video: Copy The Short-Game Blueprint that helped Luke Donald become World #1 for 56 Weeks!
They are all copying Matt's videos.
toe down isn't a new thing though... literally been a technique forever
@@joshcaldwell6787 exactly my point but Matty has often explained that Runyann invented it and his previous nods show that he also read Floyd’s book as well as promoted it.
Yas Runyan and Floyd...legends of the scoring game

G = GIOTG
A = Align to Goal Post
I = In play always
N = No 3 putts
T = Trust your 9 out of 10 club
What about GIANT? 🤔
@@GobbleRunGolferyou got the joke! This is the channel of the master of the english language! 😂

The usual PGA. Pretty Great Advice. Nice round and awesome video. I like the idea of visualising the shot and painting a picture. That's Monet.
I love how artistic his whole game is and then he gets on the greens and starts cursing like the rest of us 😂😂
Your toe down chipping tip works wonder in my game
Well it's now called heal up😂😂😂😂
Legendary old school playas really knew their stuff !
They really know the game and had to work hard for their money!🙏🙏🙏
i have been watching your videos since 2017, all your videos has help me improve my game time to time! i really appreciate your effort in creating good golf videos to help others enjoy golf! cheers mate!
music finally back , i love when you do the music ...great to watch you x
Love your channel..just the best. Keep up the great advice for we higher handicappers. Really changed my thinking.
I love my 7 wood. It only carries about 135 but for a senior flexie guy I'll take it

Just ordered my 2nd club cover from your site. Need to support my favorite TH-cam golfer.
I watch all sorts of golf videos, but when I overhear people wanting to improve their game, I always give your channel a shout.
Me too, I have suggested to my lads I play golf with regularly to see some genuinely helpful golf advice go to Matty-boy's channel.
I havent went quite as calling them boyfriends though!!!!🤣🤣🤣
Really a great video on course management. Thanks Matty!
Hello Matt , I really enjoyed this episode. You are absolutely right. We should stay in our level and just enjoy the game. Keep cracking. 😊😊😊
Sounds like loser high handicapper talk to me
Matty, your videos are the best! Great entertainment, and great advice. Thank you.
Shot 81 and 82 at my favorite course. Down from 96. Thanks! Let me know if you’re ever in LA.
Just ordered a Big Bertha S2H2 Heavenwood, the pretty silver one from the 90s. So excited to add that to the bag playa.
I’ve never heard this 80% effort, 80% of the time, but I get it…growing up playing baseball it was drilled into me 110% effort, 100% of the time. But this 80/80 makes so much sense for golf, a once a week player. I’m headed out now, gonna take this advice today and see how it goes! 👌
Exactly. That’s the irony. We all bring the other sports philosophy to golf and it doesn’t work.
It came out of trees on 5 onto the fairway, because of the POSITIVE ENERGY.
Brilliant advice of taking tips based on your needs, not just because
Quite possibly Matt’s best video yet
I've been loving toe down chipping, can't wait to get out and try the heel up chipping!
Probably enjoyed this video more than any other. Thx!
I love this strategy. Makes so much sense and it takes a lot of the stress out
This was fun to watch. Nice and relaxing.
Honestly, this is exactly my game. I sometimes have delusions of grandeur that I will break par playing once every two weeks. But the best rounds are those nice little bobby ross accidents where I break 80 (twice a year).

I haven't watched a Matty Boom Boom video in a while and I realized my golf ego was creeping up again, and my golf enjoyment was going down. Going out to play today with hopefully some more ZEN then ego Playa! Thanks for all you do!!
Thanks coach. Great lesson. Stinky Winky good

Dang boi. Can’t wait to add the heel up chip to my repertoire. I was struggling with getting my toe down. But I can lift the heel up easy. LFG
i aim too please
So so true.....the days Ive gone out and just not cared and relaxed my mind us the times Ive shot 73, 74 or 75.....not a care in the world and just having fun. So true....but also with a nice shot of vodka relaxing me lol.

Loved this video.... Excellent, so needed to see this.
This video was made precisely for me!
Golfer by day, philosopher by night; but when on them Thai courses, Matty is a hybrid mentor. Cheers!
Big thank you!! I play off a 12 and just shot 76 playing lazy golf.
ABSOLUTELY SAVAGE
A video on how to keep your swing consistent would be great. I feel like my swing changes thru the round and thru the summer.
You obviously haven't been watching him long. He doesn't do swing instructions. He believes that is something you need to get personally for your swing from a Pro. He tells you how to score well with your CURRENT game.
Yeah, Matty Boom Boom has pros on occasionally but when it's just him, he's all about course management.
Take the advice of Jack Nicklaus. He learned to play with what he called his "swing de jour". Instead of trying to swing the same each day, figure out how your swinging each day, and play with that. Worked out pretty well for him!

Nice to see you playing such good golf over the last few months. Wheels up 61 days Bro.
Heel up chipping is so much better than toe down 🤘🏻
I do play my best when I am swinging 80%. Just feels more relaxed. Also I think adding a 7 wood to my clubs could really help
Wow, i love this content, it looks great, i think we can learn some useful skills from this video.
Still my favorite TH-cam golfer by far keep it up Matty
@golfsidekick what brand shirt is that you have on in this video? I'm loving it!
I make them myself and this design has been the most popular for 5 years: waddaplayagolf.com/products/playas-playland
I used swing tweaks the first time and I am really happy with it so far 🎉
Love your interactions with your caddie. Do you play together all the time?
I put my ego on a leash, started playing conservative per ur recommendation. I shot 85 last week. My prior best was 99 😅
Matty , love your Jive Talking today
I love playing golf using the dwatr system. It's the only way to swing freely
Awesome Video as always. I just got to know where I can get that dope shirt? It's NOICE
Hey Matty. Where is this golf course? Lovely
Hey Playa, can you give me some info on the camera, tracer software, and mount/tripod you use?
Matt what irons are you using? If is not to much to ask 😅x they look like takomo 101t
At 1:00 you became a philosopher! Got me thinkin Playa!
Zen Master Matt... Namaste. Love it.
Stunning and brave!
WAIT... I Just started Toe Down Chipping and you are going back to traditional chipping... please give some of your thoughts for the change back... 6 month watcher, recent subscriber...
Thank you
Toe down
Heel up
Get it?
Unrelated to this video but do you think single length irons would help some golfers?
@golfsidekick what course is this and where? Singapore or Thailand?
Boet channeling Golf Yoda vibes, lekker man!
Makes perfect sense to me, hermano. My impresionante.
Whats the ratio chipping video your talking about?
Im going to do some heal-up drills today. 4:31
Classic Baus.... JOMO.. this is my favorite game... waddalife.
Whats the difference between Toe down vs Heel Up? if the toes is down isnt the heel up?
I have transitioned from toe down chipping to heel up chipping but it’s not working as well. Ant tips?
*any
Ha!
**Loving the content in Phoenix AZ**
how much does it cost to stay there and golf? I'm guessing it's pretty affordable? are you living there long term?
I shot 46 on the front the other day (which I know Im better)...lost 2 balls...thought to myself "This is NOT the way of the Playa". Got into some of my Sidekick thoughts...Confidentiality showed up...made the back 9 my Biotch for the evening...37 on the back for 83 😎
When is the Bird Dog 2.0 black right-handed putter coming back in stock?
Next week playa

Once I stopped watching the other shit and following the advice of the Great Mojodulah Matty Boom Boom my game improved
Matty big chief. At 2:32 what app are you using dawg?
Why did you decide to switch from toe down chipping?
That was the epitome of stress free viewing 🎉❤ don't hate the playa hate the game
Hey Boom Boom have you heard of a lauch monitor is Korea that South side. Called Waze. I seen the video have asleep and then can’t remeber the exact name
The most important lesson in this video is at 24:00
Totally agree. If you play with people that are miserable to be around, that’s the last time you play with them.
whats better? toe down r heel up? im not confidential at alllll
Love the Leonardo thing. 🖼️🏌️
Had a fun round today. 11/14 in playa off the tee and pretty good iron play. Chipping and putting is still a work in progress. 🫤. It was a new course for me. I was hitting my targets with my normal chipping clubs only to see the ball run by the flag or off the green. Need to react and adapt better.
Where is this Golf course in Thailand?
Top video again Matt
this guy is a poet and he knows it
That shirt will never go outta style 🔥
Hey Mat - What app are you using for the maps in the bottom right of the screen?

WITB looks like you had to borrow. Love the content!!!

Been itching for a new video
Good stuff!
