    You're killing it man. You go out and help people learn better ways to PLAY golf. Not endless technical tips that they wont understand or wont know how to apply on the course. These types of tips you've been giving can teach people how to COMPARTMENTALIZE and shoot lower scores.

    Teaching my son, really been driving home that setup/alignment is 80% of the answer. If setup is bad it’s tough to make a good swing. If alignment is bad chances are a good swing wasted because the ball isn’t going where you want it to go.
    When we are just out practicing I’ll often place a tee on the ground pointing at the ideal target line for him to line up with. He was surprised by how much better he played, that his misses weren’t bad off line.

    Yet another video of very practical advice. I had been doing the grass/divot trick for years, but had never picked targets off the ground until this past season. My mind was focused completely on the ground in front of the ball. The mental shift of trying to hit a target off in the distance and off the ground was a game changer and has helped greatly in committing to the shot.

    Thank you !! Been a huge fan since I started golfing a year and a half ago. I gotta say thanks to your guidance I was finally able to shoot under 100 for the first time just a few days ago. Haha then I proceeded to break my leg playing soccer yesterday but atleast I finally made it happen right on time after watching your break 100 tutorials haha. A few more months and hopefully I will be getting back into it and enjoying the game again ! Much Love ❤

    Since I’ve been aligning the ball for my drives and putts my game has really improved. When putting I align the ball and step back and check with the ball still marked, then quickly adjust if needed. Great advice Matty! Thanks for your channel, you have changed the way I think about golf.

    I’ve been trying this for awhile but I struggle with getting my stance aligned as when you stand over the ball the alignment looks wrong. Can do a vid on the feet position after you have lined up the ball to target..

    • @GolfSidekick
      @GolfSidekick  Před rokem +1

      Line up club face to target then line up your feet to parallel train tracks.
      The best way to line up your feet is with an alignment stick between your toes and the ball, running parallel with your feet and target.

And I believe the lovely blonde lady is part of his production team, she's filmed a few videos with him now and it is great to have the extra camera angles, she's doing a good job for the channel with that.
