What a great video. I’m 71 years old and that’s how I try to play. If you know your limitations, you can have a decent score.
Hi David, new to the channel and loving this instruction. 64 years old, got down to 14 years ago. Now floating around 17/18. I feel I still have the shots, although not the distance. This is helping me to manage expectations and play a calmer and more relaxed form of golf, which is leading to more consistant scoring. Thanks again.
"Standard pitching wedges now on average have about 44 degrees of loft. So when I was growing up that was more what an 8 iron was. So that's why people look like they're starting to hit the ball further."
LOVE IT. Someone who's willing to just casually call a spade a spade! Shrinking loft disease has been going on for ages now, and it doesn't do anyone any favours. That leaves you 8 degrees of loft between that and your 52 degree wedge. When David and I were growing up, a 52 degree wedge WAS a pitching wedge. But as lofts shrank, they had to invent a new wedge to fill that growing gap between a pitching wedge and a sand wedge. Some manufacturers even called it a Gap Wedge. Now, with some sets, they stretch the loft gaps to 6 degrees between 9 and PW and GW in order to avoid having to create a 5th wedge, and drop yet another fairway wood. And don't get me started about turning 3 irons into 5 irons, and creating hybrids to compensate for making long irons unhittable.
Lord, what a bunch of nonsense!
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾. Thank you for this common sense approach to course management.
So measured and calm. Many thanks David
Bogey golf is pretty decent in the grand scheme of things. I aim to have a putt for par, even if its 20 or 30 ft. As long as your pace control is ok you should get plenty of easy bogeys. Then its a case of hitting more better shots than bad ones on and around the green.
Indeed very calm... avoids getting into uncalled for trouble. Thanks for your tips.
Thank you for this cool lesson. I learned some good things have a great day
Really enjoyed your course management
Great video, inspirational ; will try it tomorrow.
Best coach on HOW to play the game for improvement.
Yes indeed!
Thank you, please share with your friends

I think it boils down to using the club you trust to achieve the goal. Forget hero shots. The 70 per cent rule works well.
Don’t believe that many 18 handicap golfers always hit smooth down-the-fairway shots. Go out and follow an 18 handicapper, and you’ll see why!
The other way to give oneself more space with that chip on the 2nd hole is to aim just a smidge right, where there is a little more room behind in case the ball runs on a bit. Not much. Just a bit. I like your idea of only needing to get within a 15 foot radius. In this case, as you say, a little short and maybe a smidge right keeps all that radius on the green.
A great representation of a bogey golfer. Manage long game mistakes and have a very good short game to clean up everything around the green.
If i could just learn how to hit that far so easily. Cant find that timing
Great video but I didn't see a single sand trap or water hazard. I'm 78 years old. I might be able to shoot 90 on that course if Im having a good day.
I don’t know any club golfer that from the middle of the fairway on a par 5 would hit a 6 iron to lay up. These days players are hitting their rescue clubs and going 40-60 yards further than their 6 iron.
The idea behind the 12 Shots of Golf is to show you on average how far you need to hit each shot when playing down a hole. If you can advance it 150 yards, this will keep you playing to 18. If you have the ability to hit it further then you have the opportunity to play to a lower handicap. The 12 Shots of Golf will help you understand what’s required to play to a certain level, and I’ve found it takes pressure off the player, making them play better.
You are not realistic at all. 18 markers duff plenty of shots , lose balls, take 3 to get out of bunkers , have doubles and triples.
You hit perfect shots for what you were trying to do, no 18 marker ever does that.
Actually, that's pretty much how I used to break 90. I thought the video was pretty fair representation of how to go about planning your play. Yes, there will be some problems and duffed shots you'll have to work around. But my experience tells me that the number of such shots goes way down if you start hitting lower pressure, easier shots. The tops and fats and duffs mostly come when you are trying to really hit one, I find. When I took off the pressure, I hit straighter and hit into way less trouble, too. I'd get only a 1-2 doubles per round, but make up for that with 3-4-5 pars and shoot 87-89. On the days I duffed more and had a triple or two, I'd be up around 92 or so. Some days, things would really work out, and I'd scare 80. It works.
The ones I see going OB, and losing balls, and taking 3 to get out of bunkers aren't 18 handicappers. They are players that can't break 100. Or at least that's been my experience.
If you're taking 3 to get out of bunkers, carding doubles and triples, and losing balls, you're nowhere near an 18. Better rethink that handicap!
@@pepawg2281 I wasn’t referring those things happening every round but an 18 handicapper does all of those things . I’ve played with plenty of 18 handicappers, they are the mistakes they make…off 18 you are really inconsistent
Finally somebody who gives real useful tips for everybody. Greetings from Belgium 🏌️♂️👍😁
