Paddy you have endeared yourself to us weekend warriors with the generous giving of your time, skill and expertise and the excellence of your teaching. I feel privileged and am extremely grateful to you.
Professor Harrington ...like fine wine, you just keep getting better and better! Thank you for your time and efforts to help us "want to be good" golfers!
Paddy , you’re my favourite golf instructor . You’re the best . There’s no one else who has given so much information on all aspects of the golf game .
I'm a big fan of this Gen. for a long time now. It's not only about his golf game but his positive manner on and off course. Great to have him in the golf world!
this is some of the best instruction iv'e heard.. the thing is most golf instructors over explain and have all these gimmicks but when tour pro's give lessons it's straight to the point the demonstrated.. i love it.. thanks Paddy
Loved this video Padraig. Absolutely agree on you saying a golfer should never be between clubs. That is the kind of thing that a golfer who only hits one shot, one yardage, with each iron. I laughed at the end when you said "I can give you no more when it comes to pitching" - you gave us an almost infinite number of things to vary!! You mentioned: swing length, club face, grip position, stance width, swing path (cut or draw), strike force (hard/easy), chip vs. pitch - and then the combination of some or all of these. I was hanging on every word of this video.
Uhhhhh...that was just super-fantastic!! I love how you ended with " I can give you no more when it comes to pitching."...because, you just gave us everything! Thanks Padraig.
Watched Padraig at the Open at Saucon Valley this year. He's hitting it past just about everyone, looks in tremendous shape, and was knocking down pins all day. He will dominate the Champions Tour.
Thank you so much for explaining these feels! Just the idea of "trying to stop the clubhead" has given me some completely different tools to work with. Such quality information! Your lessons open my mind and warm my heart. There is so much misinformation and deception in the "teaching" industry that I was becoming very apathetic and jaded. Thank you for reminding me how fantastic this game is and how pure it can be once you block out the egos and the noise. You are a breath of fresh air!!!
Outstanding series Padraig; we all appreciate you taking the time to put these together. I love your direct, concise and matter of fact way of looking at the game and technique.
Just watched this video and am grateful for the multitude of tips on technique, distance control, even club selection re 60 degree wedge limitations. Any other TH-cam golf poster would have taken perhaps up to 10 videos over two or three weeks to cover a third of the information you provided in this one lesson. Thank you sir.
Thanks for not saying "do this, or else" or "get 10 more yards if you just..." Love the notion of feel, the tips that validate my own homegrown solutions such as choking up, your pre-shot swinging to get your body & head tuned into the shot a hand, and the stance width ideas. You make me feel like I can be better at this.
It is a tremendous benefit to budding, wknd golfers that you have putbout this series Padraig, many of the tips have helped inform my practice and improve my play - none more so than the grip focused vids - thank you sir!!!
I've found your videos to be so practical and helpful to the developing golfer! Your language is clear and easy to understand. I feel like I have a deeper understanding of the golf swing with every video you release! Thanks so much!
Paddy - you are a true champ and very generous with these videos. What a treat to watch and learn from you. Thank you! Future video suggestion: How to play in windy conditions. E.g. the punch shot, club selection, driver in wind, other tips and swing thoughts.
Paddy - the tips in this video have been so useful. After playing for 40 years or so, the tips have transformed the way I think about pitch shots. I have recommended your videos to all my golfing mates. Thanks so much.
The skill pros like Paddy posses is other worldly, but listening to him discuss his practice habits makes me realize how much time and effort the most talented players put into honing their craft to reach their potential. Thank you for the time and insight.
Thank-you, Information I've never heard before with so many golf tips available on TH-cam. Your knowledge of the game compared to golf coaches is immeasurable.
This man’s ball flight is like an extension of his actual body. Like you can see him just feeling the curve of the ball in his hands. It’s amazing he can even put it into words.
It's such a pleasure to watch your videos Paddy. They're always intuitive, clearly explained and entertaining, You're an inspirational figure in the game we love. Thank you
This was a great video on shots from 50-100. Great tips From a PGA pro like yourself means a lot to us. Many golfers don't practice a lot or thinking that what they practiced on the range is good enough for the game. But as you said its very different in the golf course than on the range. To feel the shot and trying not to swing 100% at each pitch or chip shot is very important. You also mentioned to put the ball forward in your stand and not back so you wouldn't get a large davit. Thank you for sharing with us many years of your experience. This is priceless.
Let me please echo what others have already said...thank you Sir for the time and effort you have taken here and on countless other videos to teach us how to play the hardest game on the planet. Your valuable time and effort is greatly appreciated. You get our most profound respect in doing these super high quality lessons, and I can say without a doubt that your instruction has led to a much greater understanding of the finer points of golf. This video is such an important one, since pitching and chipping can be the deciding factor between a great score and potentially a bogey or worse. Thanks Padraig once again for helping us "break the code." And now, on to the practice sessions...Cheers!
Excellent content with the very best way around approach shot instruction, explaining the mechanics required along with the drills necessary to achieve good results,thank you
Thank you so much for these videos Paddy. We are just starting to golf up here in Maine and it usually takes me a month to get back into it, but after watching all your videos I’m already shooting my scores from last year. Not only that, but I feel like I’m playing much worse but completely saved by all your tips. Thank you
First time I have watched Padraig and now subscribed. the 52 wedge idea is working for me. Took this to the range and course and works well for me. Thanks
Thanks Paddy, i make great contact nut habe been struggling with disyance control. I was going to seek help but now i realize i just need practice, lots of it. And i will stay away from my 60. I really derive great benefit from your efforts. Thanks so much for taking time to help.
Wonderful insight Padraig, I especially love your emphasis on understanding ’feel’…all too often on TH-cam its all about drills that can magically sort things out but quite clearly, the real secret is to understand ‘feel’ and what that mean individually for each player.
I’m pleased you clarified the “stopping the club at impact” comment. It’s not really the club face that is stopping, you don’t want the club head actually decelerating at impact, but the hands can decelerate, allowing the head to actually speed up. Really enjoying your videos. Thanks!
Why would a multiple Major champion take time to share this stuff with us hackers? I guess, you're just giving back to the game and being a total gentleman. Thank you.
Stopping the club face at impact is such a small but significant tip. It finally helped me feel what closing the club face is like. Mega slice is gone. And the chipping is so nippy now ❤
Proper instruction 👏🏼👏🏼 that’s one thing that annoys me when watching golf on the TV, they’ll tell you what iron they are using and not what wedge, e.g. 60,56,52
I’m amazed at how much I don’t know walking round a golf course! Pitching is an area I’m definitely losing shots. Thankyou for all this insight. Love how you don’t go too technical on the swing but gave us so many options to practice. 👍
Great video, I can’t tell you how freeing it is to know you don’t have to get a ton of shaft lean on your wedges and just let the hands stop at the ball, as that is what comes naturally for me. Now I can just focus on my feel and distance control.
Thanks Padraig. You've inspired me to get back to golf after a hiatus! Congratulations on your victory in the US Senior Major. I remember watching you at the Open in 2003 at Royal St George's, and I'm a long time fan and admirer. Great to see you giving back to the game in this way at a time when other players' motives are under scrutiny.
I watched you live hitting that 2nd shot on the par 5 in howling wind to win the Open. One of the greatest Sunday rounds ever! Yeah there are many many grips, stances, postures, ect.. to pitch a ball, you cover the basics very well, after that you get into trick shots like Phil M loves to do.. which the average player really doesn't need to learn.
Great tutorial from Mr Padraig - I would love to see Mr Padraig film some tips specifically for Juniors - what to practice / how to practice and ladies too
Some of the best videos on line. Explained in a no nonsense way with all the key points highlighted and this one on 50 - 100 yards is no exception. So much detail I will be coming back to this over and over. Thank you. As for next ideas impact, follow through, club path to target direction or the average practice or tournament day for Padraig. Thanks again, keep up the great work 😇
I'm looking for suggestions on tips to film for future videos. Please comment below!
Hi Padraig i was wondering how do you manage fairway bunker under 100 yards
I’d love to see course management. Both when you play but even more - see you give advice to some weekend warrior 🙏😊
Putting drills and practice. Your thoughts on lag putting and how far away do you change focus to lag and length rather than making it.
After chipping its how not to 3 putss or more..to lower my score..appreciate it
Getting out from under the trees.
Paddy you have endeared yourself to us weekend warriors with the generous giving of your time, skill and expertise and the excellence of your teaching. I feel privileged and am extremely grateful to you.
Paddy😂

Hands down Padraigs videos are the best and most interesting golf tutorial videos on You Tube
“You’re never in between clubs” - love that Padraig.
he was pretty passionate about that one, lol!
There’s no such thing as a bad lie either. 😂
It’s such a tough game to play… got to practice, get out what you put in with this game.
For any pro id say there should never be in between clubs ,but us mere mortals 🤷🏼♂️😜😬👍🏼✌️
You're my absolute hero for doing these in your spare time.
Padraig's coaching is the most practical, no BS, easy going advise you can get get on TH-cam. Long may he continue!

By far the best instruction available.
I got to very briefly chat with him at Adare Manor in Ireland this weekend. What a pleasant human being. Thanks Paddy!
Nice to watch all these tips from you , one of the best golf channels ......
Uhhhhh...that was just super-fantastic!!
I love how you ended with " I can give you no more when it comes to pitching."...because, you just gave us everything! Thanks Padraig.

I’m so glad I found this Channel.
Thanks Champ!! Best teacher ever, who knew.
Thank you so much for explaining these feels! Just the idea of "trying to stop the clubhead" has given me some completely different tools to work with. Such quality information!
Your lessons open my mind and warm my heart. There is so much misinformation and deception in the "teaching" industry that I was becoming very apathetic and jaded.
Thank you for reminding me how fantastic this game is and how pure it can be once you block out the egos and the noise.
You are a breath of fresh air!!!
I always look forward to your videos, how often does one get a lesson from a major winning pro!
A multiple major winner at that
Outstanding series Padraig; we all appreciate you taking the time to put these together. I love your direct, concise and matter of fact way of looking at the game and technique.
Best wedge play video I have ever seen(and I’ve seen a lot)
It still baffles me just how good you have to be to be a great golfer.all the nuances involved in a golf swing is so subtle!thanks paddy for your help
Just watched this video and am grateful for the multitude of tips on technique, distance control, even club selection re 60 degree wedge limitations.

In another video, Paddy says "This is not a two-way street. I'm telling you what to do." And that is what I am after.
It is a tremendous benefit to budding, wknd golfers that you have putbout this series Padraig, many of the tips have helped inform my practice and improve my play - none more so than the grip focused vids - thank you sir!!!

That is some really good swing tots

"I Should do that all time, that was perfect." I cackled at how relatable that is.
Every time I watch your videos Paddy, there's something in there I've never heard before. Absolutely priceless !
Paddy - the tips in this video have been so useful. After playing for 40 years or so, the tips have transformed the way I think about pitch shots. I have recommended your videos to all my golfing mates. Thanks so much.

Yes! This video is exactly what I'd been meaning to suggest. And at the perfect time for me after winter.
Great finish this week @ the Mitsubishi !!!!
My favorite professional golfer and instructor. Amazing content Padraig. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you so much for taking some time in your wonderful series to share your thoughts, insight and skills with us!
This is a great instructional video. I love the thought process in how to manipulate the club to hit different shots.
Immediately subscribed.! And this video is what I need to work on most. 🤙🏼
This man’s ball flight is like an extension of his actual body. Like you can see him just feeling the curve of the ball in his hands. It’s amazing he can even put it into words.

Thx Paddy ! Great teach
Thank's Padraig!!
I don’t understand why Padraig hasn’t got like 3 million followers! This content is gold! Maybe people don’t know about it?
Thanks Padraig as a senior player my short game needs to be sharp to make pars.
Thank you very much for all the information. It reduces my frustration.
Glad to help

Thank you as always for taking time to help hackers like us!! A true legend
Best instruction on the tube ❤. But I’m a Dowd so maybe I’m biased.
Thanks for these videos, Paddy. Really great to hear these tips from someone who has played at the highest level. Solid goal.
Proper instruction 👏🏼👏🏼 that’s one thing that annoys me when watching golf on the TV, they’ll tell you what iron they are using and not what wedge, e.g. 60,56,52
I like “take your full swing just narrow your stance”. It works! Thank you!
I’m amazed at how much I don’t know walking round a golf course! Pitching is an area I’m definitely losing shots. Thankyou for all this insight. Love how you don’t go too technical on the swing but gave us so many options to practice. 👍
These guys make it look so dang easy, when in fact, it is so dang hard.
Perfect timing. I have the dreaded yipes thanks champ
These videos are absolutely class Paddy 🏌🏻🏌🏻🏌🏻
You are the best. Thank you for all your knowledge and experience.
Great video, I can’t tell you how freeing it is to know you don’t have to get a ton of shaft lean on your wedges and just let the hands stop at the ball, as that is what comes naturally for me. Now I can just focus on my feel and distance control.
Think this video has the potential to save my golf season. Took the tips to the course this evening and it helped, Thanks Padraig!
