The Top-5 Short Game Mistakes! 

"I'm a reasonable short game player." LOL. Too modest. You can say it. I'm a world class short game player.

I'm impressed, not only can he teach and improve his students, he can execute the shots on demand. I bought his book.

Once upon a time, Dave Pelz was the king of short game instruction and made a fortune in the process of selling books and coaching pros like Payne Stewart. The trouble with him was that his books and approach are extremely detailed and complex….Dan, by contrast, boils it all down to simple basics and is thus far more effective and practical for us hackers to employ….top coach!

No one will say they waisted time by watching your videos. 1000 times Brilliant, huge thanks for your work.

Dan is the ONLY PERSON I listen to and watch for short game play!!!! Incredible!!

This is the content golfers want to, and need to see. Brilliant stuff Dan. P.S. love your book 👍

Dan’s ability to communicate such an intricate part of the game so simply really speaks to his mastery. Using his book and these videos in conjunction with each other has improved my short game leaps and bounds in a very short amount of time. I am very grateful to have found Dan on this platform!! Thank you SO much for all that you do, sir!!

An absolute game changer. These videos along with Dan's book have revolutionised my short game. Such a good tutor who is a master of his craft. I've lost count of the number of golfers I've recommended his book and videos too. Keep it up & a big thank you Dan.

Another great video from Dan - so clear and easy to see what he is teaching and the impact of it. Loving watching his different videos and trying to improve my short game. Practice and reading the book over the winter months will hopefully set me up for next season!👍

One of the best short game videos I’ve seen in a while. Thank you very much.

Excellent content. Great work Dan!

Superb coaching content and demonstrated so clearly. Thank you

I came across your channel yesterday. I watched 3 of your videos and applied your teachings in my practice session today. I'm not exaggerating when I say my chipping improved immediately. I absolutely love your content, Dan. You have literally changed my chipping game overnight.

Fantastic content, thank you. Just ordered your book, can't wait to turn the pages and learn about the short game.

Great tips! No gimmicks or click bait. Thank you for your help !

Brilliant video reiterating everything you need to be conscious of to produce your best. Thanks again

Thank you Dan...Yes great reinforcement.. Your 3 Release book has helped my short game & confidence greatly.

Yet again, very grateful for Dan's instructional videos. I have the book, and made checklists for all 3 of the releases. In the very few times I had a chance to practice them, I noticed some improvements already. As a beginner, it is a nice feeling when I hit a great shot while following these techniques. Thank You.

This is real advice. Real information, well described and demonstrated.

Very well done with a magical touch around the green. A most informative video. Excellent!

Dan you are the man , i done the short game school and you transformed my shortgame in a few short hours . Loving the content

Very very helpful vid lesson with tons of great content! Thanks!

Brilliant coach, makes understanding it so easy and breaks things down to the basic elements. No click bait just good honest experience

What a great video! Thank you so much for sharing!

Hey Dan just found you on You Tube and a great video this is. I bought your book several months ago and got a LOT out of it. It really helped my short game. After reading the book and applying your techniques my “strokes gained” on the short game, went from a slightly negative number to a slightly positive number. So I got a lot out of it! Thanks for all the help on the short game.

Simply Extraordinary Dan. The best short Game lesson by far. It is your way of aproaching and clearly explaining this part of the game.

Great video Dan I got your book and I will be reading it over and over again,thank you for sharing your experience with us and your valuable time.

Without doubt the most informative and useful content on YT for golf instruction. Spotted myself 3 outta 5! Off to the practice ground… Thank you DG, much appreciated.

Thank you so much for this just covered everything I have done wrong recently. Looking to get my handicap down from 7 and this was short game Gold for me. Lightbulb moment definitely. 🙌

I have watched this twice along with the lesson with Rick shiels twice. So good! Thank you so much! I love trying to practice what I learn from your videos. ❤

Awesome content. Can't wait for the putting instructions and book(short game)!

There has not been a larger reduction to my scoring average in a shorter period of time than fully embracing the dan grieve short game mindset, this video is incredible as are all the rest. Thanks for sharing the knowledge!

Some of the best short game instruction that I've ever seen. I'm buying his book.

Gold. Pure gold. Thank you!

Thanx for another great video Dan!!!

Thanks Dan, nice video, very informative.

I was first introduced to your content on Rick Shiels’ channel as I’m sure thousands of others were. Bought the book and can honestly say that your methods have had the most direct immediate impact on my game of any creator/teacher/coach that I’ve come across. So easy to understand and satisfying when you get it right. Thanks!

Thank you so much. The way you explain each different shot is just amazing. I like the technical approach. It helps to understand the club selection and the swing to be used. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻😊🇩🇪

Brilliant video Dan. Just read your book and found it enlightening! Thanks a million!

This is really good, very helpful.

Something very easy to understand from all your explanations in this Dan. Some stuff, I've been doing naturally but some are light bulb moments! cheers!!

These longer videos have been fantastic! I could listen to Dan talk about short game for hours.

Thanks a lot for your contribution . Your advice on loosening the right hand absolutely change my game. I have had more great chipping shots than ever

Fantastic advice Dan. 👍 Grip pressure & club selection an issue for me.

Bought the book and love it, thank you so much for these videos!

From the USA and book owner: Dan your videos and textbook have helped me tremendously and I want to say thank you. You just have a way of connecting in simplicity. I don't miss a single one.

All Hail Dan Grieve. Thank you so much for this content. When I watched the video with RS the point about grip pressure completely changed my chipping as well as putting.

Hello dan! I have your book and with the quality of your videos they make a spectacular combo! My short game has improved substantially! thank you very much, saludos desde Uruguay 🇺🇾

You are impressive. Can't wait to have a lesson with you. Your book blew my mind!

Hard to argue with the logic of your approach to this part of the game. Very clear instruction.

Excellent guidance. Many thanks.

Class vid, makes its so simple to understand.

Wow, great video, extremely helpful

Best short game teacher! Thanks!

Wonderful video I keep on experimenting so this entire week I played all my short game shots with 7 iron and it was wonderful pitch and roll excellent sometimes I get tensed with SW if it tops

natural teacher, thank you.

Read Dan's short game book and it transformed my short game in one week. He is an incredible coach. Thanks Dan.

Fantastic video Dan, thank you 😊⛳️

What a great video. Thank you very much

Soooo good, very helpful

@DanGrieveGolf, this is amazing content. The freedom your 3 release technique and online coaching has given my game is nothing short of amazing. No longer am I one dimensional in short game but my confidence on the course has also improved knowing I now have the tools to get up & down whenever I miss the green which for a high handicapper like me is quite a lot. Even my short game practice is now more meaningful & structured to the point where I'm not worried whenever I find the practice green at my home course inaccessible. I simply find a quiet spot & chip into a hoop going through the releases as I use my imagination to picture how the ball will most likely react. Rest assured my weekend fourball pairings over the past few rounds have been pleasantly surprised not just because of my length off the tee but also the finesse that comes with the short game. Can't wait for that magical round where every aspect of my game just comes together.... 💯👊

To the point exactly, you make things easy Dan and for me I like things that are straight forward, the pro at my golf club is far too technical which the average golfer does not need, keep up the videos they are brilliant.

Dan you provide excellent information, unfortunately I am guilty of all the faults . On the good side I recently got your book and now have a direction for improvement. Thank you

Very Insightful, thank you! I'll definitely start working on pitching with my gap and pitching wedge rather than defaulting to the fuller swing with my 56'. The 9/8 iron bump and run/pitch is also a shot I don't play as I struggle to control the distance. I will start working on these to add more versatility to my short game 🙂

Great instruction Dan.

Brilliant Dan I’ve no short game yet defo wi be seeing you or your staff soon 👌

Great lesson Dan. I wish i would have had this in high school!

Brilliant just brilliant 👍💯

Really good video.. thank you 👍👍👍👍

Like to see more in depth on pitching. 40-70 yards.

Dan, to me the point you raise about grip pressure is gold but probably extends through the bag. Brilliant interview with Rick after his lesson - you should definitely produce a video based on the book. Like many others on RU-vid, I’ve not bought a book on golf instruction for many years but I’ve just ordered yours ! I look forward to “stroking” chips just like you !

I just stood up in my office and changed my grip pressure to a "3" and I felt like it was SO MUCH easier to let the club release and the contact on the carpet seemed more consistent than when I've practiced before. Very cool! Thanks!

Immaculate lesson, as always btw 👏👏👏👏

Dan. Not sure your aware of the help you are giving to golfers. Your knowledge and delivery of these videos really are invaluable. Thank you 🙏

Good one Dan - reinforces the book😊

Fantastic video! I am that player who tries to fit all shots into one club. Going to start working on proper club selection based on conditions. Thank you!

I absolutely love the idea of making a practice swing or rehearsal shot with the ghost ball. My biggest short coming with my pre-shot routine is making practice swings that are fairly reasonable, but really not envisioning and feeling the shot as if it were real. I think pantomiming the ghost ball will help me with that visualization and imaginative creative process . Thank you for all you have done. Also, I need to be using more eight irons especially when I have an uphill line and a lot of green.

Fantastic content! 👍

Great stuff! The only comparable tips I've seen is from Dave Pelz. Thank you Dan and I'm so glad I found you.

You make it look so easy Sir.I am so bad you could hand a club to anyone off the street who has never held a golf club before and i am confident they would chip better than me.Been practising in my loft into a hanging blanket as weather dreadful just trying to get consistent strikes. To help me with tempo i say to myself slowly "chip well" as i play the shot to try and get same tempo time and again.Your tempo is beautiful to watch.

Great video Dan 😀 Love your book 🍾🥇

A true master of the short game,... not only as a teacher but as a player! If you can, get down to Woburn to see him, all of these videos are superb but having Dan look at your game and picking out your individual faults takes your game to another level.

Fantastic lessons Dan. Bought the book. Has made a huge difference to my short game. Single figures, Here We Come 😂

Brilliant stuff

Great tips here, right on the money. I don’t know a single digit handicap golfer that only uses 1 club around the greens. Understanding the lie is everything and will set you up for success.

Great video and very clear instructions. Thanks. Just one question - mid/high handicappers are notoiously bad at the short game - me included. Are the skills described in this video beyond the abilities of these golfers? Thanks again for the great tips.

I’m a new fan here! I just bought the book, the best birthday gift

I have lightend my grip have been doing what he says I have watched his videos over and over to perfect this

Wow! Excellent!

I just won a tournament here in New Zealand. In te puia East coast open. Thanks to you Dan release 1 and 3 got me 4 wins in match play

Fantastic lesson loved all of it thanks Dan A shot tracer would of helped see the ball more

Great video Dan!

Great video . Can’t wait to go practice and think more

Such a pleasure to watch someone go about their business when they are a master of their craft...

I could watch this guy chip & pitch & explain everything to do with both for almost the rest of my life.

Solid stuff!

This guy is brilliant wish he was at my golf club Down load his app its a must

got Dans book and it has shaved so many strokes from my game, makes the short game feel so simple

This is brilliant!! Thanks Dan. If you ever get to Los Angeles let me know. Lol

Great video!
