I'm excited for new content and new ideas!! I plan to play in a lot more tournaments including multiple day events. - Sport
Bryson is not the only pro to recommend playing from the reds. Great confidence booster and, as we can see, it forces you to improve your short skills.
I think he got that idea from Bryson
Most guys don’t play off the ladies tees even if it is a confidence booster
Bryson recommended doing it as a junior golfer! Micah being a +3 handicap according to him would be a +10 on this course. So how does shooting your handicap boost your confidence?
My friend and I played off the women’s tees two months ago. Worked on the approach shot and short game. It did help with confidence. We are 20-25 handicap golfers also.
@@bobr6072pretty obvious mate, getting used to going low, not easy to stay level headed when your deep!
Micah, Happy to see you doing this scramble training, You left a lot of strokes out their which means much better rounds are ahead; as you you keep training your knowledgable fans know you are sharpening an enviable talent, both physically and mentally.
62 is low
Need a front tee 4 man scramble… 🤔 Grant, Micah, Remec and myself!
Saw that Grant commented, other than Grant not 1 person commenting could shoot 62 from the reds. He is taking Brysons advice on shooting from reds and getting used to shooting low. Keep it up Micah!
He can do it all he wants but he's using his score as clickbait and he didn't even bother to mention what he was doing in the intro. This sort of disingenuous behavior is what he gets all the hate for.
I shot 57 from the reds at my course this year. But I'm not talking shit about micah, guys a good player
@@SpencyP92Great round! I was merely making a point to some that no hate is needed. I may try playing up as well and see how it goes. Can definitely improve different aspects of ones game.
who cares!@@ajalikhanz people hate out of pure jealousy and envy. Nothing that he is doing has nothing to do with any one - the people that watch make it personal. Go lick windows bro.
@@seancrandles5774 thats the whole purpose! By playing from the forward tees, you would be able to score lower. Lower score’s makes one nervous! Do this repetedly makes the subconscious less nervous. When we then play our normal tees, we most often dont get nervous with lower scores, cause we trained beeing low! This is more of a mentally training, than golf training….(but offcourse it is golf too).
Started playing the front tees occasionally, about 3 years ago. It definitely helps you get comfortable with going low.
Yeah, obviously it's from the front tees, but if u have a chipping and pitching problem, driving it close to the green is a great way to practice em
So is playing the back tees, so he can learn how to get a driver in play, then deliberately misclubbing and working on the up and down from missed greens. The point of this exercise to to become mentally acustomed to being 8 or more under par so when it happens for real you don't freak out, it's not about working on the short game.
Actually it's can be used for both or either. The exercise is not a one trick pony. For instance you aren't going to go low if you don't have a good short game.
It's a great exercise to beat these mental barriers. I've tried myself, and just couldn't get the score rolling (for some reason a putt for birdie is just so much harder than a putt of the same length for par). Congrats, you seem on the good path... Just keep on doing that, you'll keep on improving!
Makes all the sense in the world to play from reds to work on scoring. It is just creating game-like scoring scenarios more frequently, same as running fast breaks in basketball/lacrosse. You practice fast breaks lots because the focus is to convert when you have those chances at very high rates. And when you practice it, you look for opportunities in game to create those scenarios. Same principles apply here, don’t understand why some people in the golf world have issues with it.
Love this. Doing this today for the second in a week. Really helps mentally. "Continue to do things that most will not so you can do things that most can not."
You still have to make the shots yes and it’s a confidence booster for sure. The only thing you’re doing wrong, is not giving your best on shortish putts. Do everything possible to make it through your routine and accept the result, simple as that. You see the line and trust it. You can’t do any more than that. Sometimes you’re wrong but mostly it comes from feel on how hard to hit it. That’s an art, not necessarily a skill. See it in your minds eye and let it go. Conscious confidence.
Mental breakthroughs are tougher than physical breakthroughs....especially in GOLF!!! Great job! Excellent video.
That has just helped so much, knowing other people can feel the same makes it feel ok to not be ok.
Great content as always. Been watching how you putt for quite some time now. Would definitely suggest getting some slow mo's from DTL and watch how your head moves through your stroke and how it effects the face and direction the club takes. Your head actually moves a few inches up and back through the stroke, causing some fundamental flaws. Would highly suggest doing some reps like Tiger talked about where he would do the gate drill and never watch the ball to the hole, he would just listen for the ball to drop in the cup; his main focus being keeping the body and head silent. I think it could clean things up a bit without getting things too complex, keep up the good work!
Nice to see you giving Brysons advice a try. Nice to see your progression. House looks awesome also so congratulations.
Great playing Mica. I was a club pro in Fl. for 30 yrs and for me I would take a high lofted wedge and practice
my practice swing trying to hit the top of the flag. For me this put me close to the hole. keep up the good work
and your dreams will come true.
Good video Micha. Do what works to help you improve your game. I liked another suggestion made here, and that is to eliminate the drive and just place the ball randomly on or near the desired landing zone. Sometimes in the fairway, in the rough, or in the trees to work on the approach shots, chip and pitch, and putting. You're doing the right things for you and that's what matters.
When Luke Donald went to the worlds no.1 player, he went over an entire year without 3 putting. Working around the green is a must. Well done, Micah. Keep pushing forwards.
Big thing you can see is Micah is swinging with great tempo. From the reds he doesn’t need to over power the course so he swings smoother and easier. It’s easy to sit on the back tees and think you have to rip your driver and that can create some bad habits. Swing looked good in this video!
Good for you Micah ! keep playing your game and improving !
Great video Tig and nice work on the -10 score. No need for me to comment on the benefits because many have already said this.
I have a suggestion as another challenge for you and opportunity area for you to consider. If you are playing a Tour length course, many of the shots that you hit in this video from 30-60 yards from the green really don’t happen that often during a normal tour round with courses measuring from 7200-7700 yards. What I would suggest is taking that concept of the normal landing zone in your video. Don’t hit the tee shot, but instead go and start the hole from the normal landing zone. Maybe consider the usual landing area as a 50 yard spread and drop it in the front, middle, or back of this area then play in from there. Reduce your par on a par 72 course and make it a par 54. When you start getting around from there in 4-5 strokes under par then you’re simulating 2nd shot conditions in a tour event and this is where you get benefit.
Not taking anything away from what you did here and definitely helps the ego and being comfortable with the low number… I hope you understand what I’m getting at here and hope it makes sense. I think many of us on your channel want the very best for you. Keep on putting in the work and great things will happen. Wishing you the very best Micah.
I agree with trying this method. It will focus on approach shots only and getting the ball in the hole. Getting good at that and then tying it into the long game could work wonders.
You love to see it!! Great job Micha love to see people pushing themselves and getting better. Plus as a added bonus made a bunch of these haters eat some crow 🤣🤣
Well done Micah. Glad to see it. I have seen chipping practice where they alternate between hitting long of the hole then the next shot short. Might help with the fogl. Peace.
Tig, keep doing that, it’s building your confidence to hit your driver more and miss small. Keep grinding man, love seeing you succeed !
Micah.. I love your positivity brother your on the right track keep doing what your doing and have no shame in your game your a pro in my book 👍🏽👊🏽
Mad respect for going this route it’s a great way to practice!
Great video. Keep it up! Love watching these
Makes me happy to see you courageously facing your fears, making changes, not being stagnant
Micah, I love this approach. Overcoming your mental barriers is a must - and then you can hone your physical skills to compete at the highest level. Believe, brother, and make it reality! 🔥🙏🏻👍 I'm all in.
Like the video! This proves that the better your long game (not short game) the better you score. If your drives are longer and straighter and you have shorter approaches, you will score better. Yes Tig made some putts but nothing way out of the ordinary. The big difference was a better long game; by way of automatically being much closer on every hole. Tour pros miss 50% of putts from 8 feet. But the more 8 footers you get during a round, the better you score. What’s the best way to do that? Hit the ball farther and straighter.
Love your first swing. Driver plus 329 yard green. It looked so effortless. Beautiful swing. I am defently doing something wrong. Some days, I feel like I pull every muscle and smoke the driver just to get 100mph. I am saving this video to remind me what a golf swing is. Thank you.
I've been thinking about doing this lately. This was the inspiration I needed to actually do it. Thanks, Micah
Amazing stuff man! Loved one of the only times I tried this at Sunny! Going low feels amazing too. Imagine us in a scramble from this distance? You're striking it. Easy -20
Keep doing this! Loved this content!
My college coach had us play from the front tees a couple of times a month just to get comfortable going low. It makes a huge difference in your confidence when you get a round rolling.
Love to see you working on short game!
speaking as a performance coach, it may be worth mentioning that narrating your mental battle may also elicit a recency effect on your movement patterns. It's like how you try not to say "don't hit it right" and what your brain remembers is "hit it right". I get that it's for the video, but I imagine this will always be an issue because of the expectations you're placing on yourself to execute at such a high level while in the public eye. Amazing round here though! Keep it up Micah.
despite being a huge fan of good good, i’m glad to see you back to playing good golf micah! hope that your career takes off soon!
Awesome round of golf. Fun to watch!!
That was freaking awesome to watch. Roller-coaster just watching.
I am implementing this fall/next year. If this strategy is good enough for Bryson and Jack Nicklaus, it has to be something I give a go as I start to play competitively again.
Congrats Micah!!! Keep grinding my man phenomenal golf!!!!! I just broke 80 for the first time last week. Saved the ball for my golf room. What a moment. I can only imagine this lol. Breaking 75 is next 💪
Nice work and great voice on inner thoughts!
Extremely smart. My coach would have us play from the front tees to work on the toughest parts of the game. It really boosted our confidence. This was one of my favorite videos. Front tees still isnt easy to shoot 10 under. Good job.
Hey Micah,
Love the positivity.
Would love to see a short game series where we see you just grind and maybe get some tips from guys with great short games. The more confident you are with it (as a result of the practice), the easier it will be to switch your mind off.
He clearly doesn’t practice short game or putting. Inside 100 yards, this 🤡’s game is abysmal.
So fun to watch!! Inspired as a 14.3 handicapper to do the same!! We sometimes play from the blues or even tips for fun so why not forward tees too?!
Well done big man, keep up the great work its all for the PROGRAM!
Great round of golf Micah. Congratulations
Good on you mate. 10 under from any tee is awesome!
Really enjoyed that. Will try the same at our local course.
The biggest difference I see in this video is how comfortable you look off the tee. That usually seems to be your down fall in big matches because you’re trying too much but with any club in your hand you just hit it straight at your target and it looked EASY. Hopefully you’re learning to feel confident on the tee box when you simplify it and don’t try to force stupid fades🤙🏻
I like seeing you playing a shorter course to work on short game. Getting closer to the pin on the approach shots is the game changer. Driver is dialed in, short game is key!
Great work. Enjoyed it.
What a round. That's the most consistent I've seen you play.
the key for me scoring
putts 1. right pace on putts/miss on the high side. If you think about how many putts that can't ever ever go in (short or low) we give ourselves 0% of making.
4, 5, 6 a round is way too many (if we make 20% that's a whole shot or two)
Love this content!
Playin at one of my favorite courses down here. Awesome to see 👍
Love this! Make a habit of shooting low from any tees and as you move back no doubt it will flow through to the longer tees as well. Love this Tig
Good work Micah. Get used to shooting 7-12 under from the short tees, and then 3-6 under from the tips will feel easy
No it won't!
Find time to keep doing this Tig! Fun to watch and it will get you through the mental side in 6 months… find time for 1 a week it’s going to help you a ton.
Great round. Sub 60 definitely needs to be next goal. Get comfortable going low. My lowest round was -6 with 3 to play. Ended up shooting 73 (+2) 😢 It is definitely a mental thing being low and finishing.
Cool story , needs a dragon and a princess to make it more believable
Cmon Matt, it could have been a snowman from a couple OB, and a double on a par three with water or something. 6 over in three holes can happen for sure, even if you are having the round of your life. But then again, I tend to believe you are right…haha
I went double, double, quad on last 3. What's hard to believe?
@@t2green01really? What's hard to believe is you were 6 under, clearly a very good golfer. A very good golfer going d,d,q is highly unlikely.
@@chrism5126 Exactly, but it can happen I guess.
Micah Sports Therapy will take your game to the next level. Bob Rotella is a legend
Not a bad way to really hone your shortgame. A bunch of us retired old farts do this at least twice during our golf season here in Colorado, and it's a blast. Glad to see you working toward your potential.
WELL DONE TIG!! Keep up the great work.
Mr. Gilmore accomplished this feat no greater than an hour ago.
Well good for Happ "Oh My God"
@@HALOMOVIEMUSIChey shooter haven’t you forgotten your 9 iron
Classic haha

Nice to see you keep working on it.
As a golfer and psychologist, I'm happy to see Micah promote therapy as a way to improve your life, marriage, golf game, etc. by promoting BetterHelp. My golf game wishes that I could hit driver like Micah, or putter, or any other club. Life is good.
I play from all the tee positions to be honest to figure out what club to use. Great thing to do. Nothing wrong with it. Helps to improve the game in my opinion. Keep it up Micah. Do your thing sir.
Playing from the front tees has been suggested to me for quite a few years now. Round looked great.
Loved this, Micah!
Great round I’ll accept you playing that 270 par 4 three times for observing good golf etiquette
I might have to give this a try if I can find a wide open course. Side note Palm beach national really is a hidden gem. For this price it's a great layout and good condition.
Give the camera man props for keeping Tig under control. I see a future caddie in the making.
I think it is the guy that actually caddies for him. Can’t remember his name but he’s always been good at keeping his emotions in check
Austin!
Rewarded for that recent club fitting. Bravo 🎉
I have been doing this with my son this year. He’s 10 and plays the front tees. After what Bryson said as well. It’s a blast!
Nice job brother, 13 under with those 3 short missed putts. Keep it up. Awesome
Awesome work Micah! Have you ever tested out a LAB putter? I don't mean that in a negative way. Just curious. If I had your skill set and mainly needed to clean up some putting then I would give it a shot for sure. Keep grinding and grinning my dude!
You called it forward tees. Most refer to it as lady’s tees. Even for girls that is super short, like executive course ladies tees. Find a good longer par 3. It will help your short game more because they usually put more contour on the greens.
Great video buddy and playing from the reds sound fun as hell 😁 if you havent done one recently is there a chance you can do a "whats in the bag" video?
Well done. Enjoyed this format and good way for you to practice areas of your game that need improvement. You could have put 5w in water at the last and made bogey so even though it was front tees there was still the pressure you placed on yourself.
100% doing this. Just builds confidence
Going low from the front tees - brilliant!
Now let's get Rick Shiels to do it 😄
great learning video keep it up
I enjoy watching you climb the ladder. I did my best to inventory your round. I apologize if I got anything wrong. When you were to the left of the hole you made 5 pars, 2 birdies, and 2 bogeys. When you were to the right of the hole you made 4 pars, 4 birdies, and 1 eagle. The old Jack Nicklaus adage is to always be to the right and below the hole to give yourself an uphill putt that breaks right to left, the natural putt trajectory. Scott Fawcett, the statistics guy, said no pro consistently leaves himself putts that go downhill to the right. I wish you the best.
theres nothing wrong with going out to practice your short game on course. lets go tig
Man I think this Red Tees drill should definitely be in your weekly practice routine at least 2 times a week or more. Probably would need to also play at least 1 round from back tees to balance it out. But I think scoring is a weakness that this drill will just cure in a snap. Couple weeks of this even and then stop, it would do wonders.
Cool 62.What did you shoot on the back 9?
I luv hereing ur videogopher talk . wat a voice
Enjoy your positive content! I believe sometimes Process > than Outcome.
hell yeah. good for the mental game.
Tig driving the cart 5 yards and get out to putt was hilarious 😂
Hey Micah. Congratulations for you great round! I have a question: When u play in the US the different courses are there big differences between the speed of the greens? Or are they pretty similar? Here in Germany every course is total different. So it‘s really hard to play consistent golf on different courses….
Kind regards
any golf course in the US has different green speeds
Great golfing tig...👏
Take a note., whenever you click the club. and you hear the clicking sound. Try to minimize it .Try to soundless and smooth. as possible. OK, and you will get that hole. Whenever you got the birdie here on this video, that's exactly what you did. You don't even realizing. That smooth, yet powerful pushing motion. Great video anime thanks.
You should do a Bustajack graduation type series where you have to shoot -1 below your handicap on that set of tees ….I.e -4(red), -2(white), -1(blue)& even from tips
Putting has definitely improved..nice job
Nice round, hope to see one of those rounds in a pro event
Great Micah!! Love your soulful swing.
Usually play the reds a few times a year.. definitely makes it different. Had a 67 last year while being 3 over thru 6😂
Drive for show, but chipping and putting is the key. Nice round dude, keep grinding and stay positive
Nice putting today! That is how you're doing to do it when it happens, putting
