Jack, do you find you don't release the club how you would like to? Your swing, like mine, seems to be this way...I score regardless, but it's my last swing fault if you will.
This is awesome bud. I started 6 months ago and I’ve hit around 25000 balls since then and I’ve gone from a 35 handicap to now a +4.4 handicap and I’m still very ignorant on a lot of parts of the game of golf
You must be a natural born international level athlete if you went from 30 handicap to 11 handicap in 6 months without a single coaching session. It’s just unbelievable and impossible for most normal people.
I have HCP 21 and I’m 15yo. Most boys in my age are chilling at HCP 8 or lower. I play often but I don’t know how to get down. But this Video helped me a lot
What helped me early was realising tee boxes aren't aligned to the fairway at all. I used to set up like it was a driving range, assuming it'd point me in a good direction, but where I play they're often aligned way into the trouble
lol just do what the guys at my club do. Only post your good scores. 😅 they play 4 days a week yet when you look at their handicap they only have 9 scores posted for the season and it’s only their best score. Then go around talking about being a 2.8 😂
im a 30 handicap but majority of those comes from bad tee shots and bad iron shots. Im only good about 100 yards and in, including my putting. Also, 150 out with my 7 iron.
Wow. A handicap of 5 within 12 months of starting golf as an adult sounds wildly unrealistic. Maybe you’re a professional or college level athlete in another sport and maybe you would’ve been a PGA caliber player had you started when you were 8 years old. Outside of these scenarios, an adult beginner having a 5 handicap within a year of starting golf just sounds like nonsense.
That bit in the trees resonated so hard 😂 i scuffed a shot intobthe trees last round and the temptation of going through to cut the dogleg was so big....the 6 shots it took to get out were proof that you have the right pov 🤣
49 years old Playing since Iv been 10years old Not a pro, never wanted to progress As a junior player I was NEVER off the golf course, every evening after school, every weekend and every day in school holidays It took me 6/7 years to get to 3 handicap on the old system You lost me after the 1st tee shot to the left and the ball been played in the right tree line for the 2nd Sorry but I don’t believe it, and the play you are doing certainly isn’t a 5 handicap
you're a very exceptional beginner player,😀 if without any lessons, your average 7i carry is 185 yards and straight ...what is your 7i and driver club head speed?....my high ( 30 ) handicap numbers are mostly from " wasted " shots in my round...by wasted, I mean hitting too many thin or fat......
wait a minute here. you started gofling a couple years ago and you hit your 8 iron 170 and your 7 iron 185??!!? so you started golfing a couple years ago, after taking a number of years off after playing since you were a kid right?
I started playing 18 weeks ago and I’ve hit my 7 iron 170. It usually goes 140-150. If you’re crazy and you practice every day it’s possible. I think it’s more important to just do straight shots tho. If I hit it far and it goes off doesn’t really matter I’m putting more work on myself. If I can hit it shorter but it get it straight down the fairway it’s better.
I’ve been playing since July of last year so about 9 months, and I can shoot mid 80’s to mid 70’s depending how I’m putting that day, the biggest thing I did was at least 3 lessons and practice chipping. Biggest thing that changed for me from before the winter was I don’t lose balls anymore and I don’t waste strokes with bad chips (thin and fat shots) if I can improve my putting I think I can get close to scratch
That swing looks like anything but a 5 hcp 😂. I've caddied in Korn Ferry qualifiers and US open qualifiers, and those guys are often 1-4 hcp players. I mean no disrespect but either you are playing the same manageable courses or being a little generous with the pen each round. Watch this gentleman and watch a Korn Ferry round. The over par players with verfied 1-5 hcp swing way better than this. BS claim in this video.
this is what i love to watch, love the journey of improving, every round is good fun but it is always important to learn little things along the way! hope you get back to posting Jack!
As a fellow 5 handicap golfer, it was cool to see how you thought through your shots. Of course we both have the same problem of not striking it perfectly so some shots will be off line, but it was very insightful nonetheless.
Great tips. I'm on the journey now both to get in the 90s consistently and to grow my subscribers on the channel. You're inspirational on both counts! Thank you!
You're absolutely correct. I've worked day in and day out for decades, playing once in a while. Now that I'm retired, I have the time to practice and play at least twice a week. Executive courses are great for short game practice also
100 yards in, chipping, putting KEEP IT IN PLAY. I lost two tee shots and one water ball. Shot myself right out of the money with these 3 holes in a row🙁🙁🙁
As a 36 handicap, (yeah yeah, just learning) really awesome video cuz. Thank you! So much more helpful than these "lessons from professionals videos" or the "try thus because it works videos" "it" never works. This was really helpful ❤
New subscriber. Why do I hit my 3 wood further than my driver? I have hit my 3 wood 286. Mid 260s on average. My I've can hit a good one, but average seems to be 250. It is not a cheap driver and has a good shaft. But any driver I hit seems to be the same
Maybe you aren't swinging a driver swing, you gotta hit down on a 3 wood to make it go up. But a driver you want to hit up into with the low point being before the ball. Maybe your swing hits down into the ball?
