Thanks for watching!
What a dream to get the chance to play golf with Malaska and listen to every word of wisdom he is saying.
I am sure you didn't mean to, but show more respect and don't walk away when he is talking to you.
I thought the same thing. It didn’t seem like he was listening to Mike at times.
I am 80 my name is Brian,and this is without a doubt the most instructive,valuable video I have ever. Seen,thank you,thanx a million
Learned more about playing a golf shot from this video than I have in 35 years playing golf.
This lesson in person would cost the average person a great deal of money.
I love listening to Mike it's a voice of experience. You're a lucky guy Brendan for having the opportunity to experience this first-hand. Thank you for posting this vlog, it's awesome.
Thank you Mike malaska you are a fantastic golf instructor!!!!!
To me it seems like your not listening and giving this golf genius your undivided attention and you really should. We all should
Your being very kind. To me it seems like a rich kid who has no idea how fortunate he is and quite frankly rude.
@Methodic L Glad you said it I was actually getting angry watching it..shut up and listen. What a donkey
It really frustrate me, I believe I can do way better this douche and make this videos much more zealous to viewers. But instead he keep distracting wisdom that we suppose to be milking as golfers.
That is just brendon. He is listening. But sometimes distracted. Nothing to worry about. He is not rude or whatever.
Exactly Mike takes time from his day to shoot a video for this guys channel and he couldn’t be considerate enough to give his undivided attention.
The 24 min mark is a gamechanger for any low to high handicapper! If you are not lining the ball for your putts you are doing yourself a disservice! Mike your videos are a gift and I thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge with us!
Mr. MALASKA...I Watch this vedio this morning, I'm 63 just retired recently, my handicap is 14.3 since retirement. I took your thoughts to the range and did exactly what you were teaching. The last 3 weeks been practicing alot and my last 5 outings I was playing very poorly in the high 80 to low 90's. I know what Impact Snap is and know what is expected but just lost all my confidence and ability. BUT TODAY.....for what ever reason, I followed and changed on to ever word you were saying, and by starting out with my 50 * at 9 o'clock the n follow thru to 3 o'clock I got a good feeling, then went to my ball and duplicate the swing which went exactly and hight I had imagined. I watched it fly and land and rolled just a a few feet. Then I did the same mind set with a full swing, got a good practice swing, felt great then wentt to my ball and duplicated my swing, the same thing happened great looking shot just like I remember before my 5 week insane sugguleding slump.I preceded to do the same routine with the rest of my irons and hybrids and had the best range sections in my life., and the divots were after I hit the ball....I took my time like you suggested, and even walked off a couble of times when I caught myself at the ball starting to talk to myself, I back off and said no no no...Go back and do your practice swing again then try again..Unbeliveable what just happened. Tomarrow Ssturday I play with my group, and do what you taught, and put it play..I'm looking forward tomarrow with a new mind set and attitude.....I'll let you know how I did....Thank you very much for your expertise......Leland

I've run into only one other golf instructor who talked like this. This fountain of knowledge is rare and needs to be absorbed before it's gone forever. There is so much crap out there. People have developed all kinds of bizarre methods, ideologies, philosophies, and are trying to market them and are steering every golfer then come in contact with into the ditch. It is a gift to make common sense come to life so that the average golfer can get his head around it. Btw, the initial tidbit about the time between range shots is crucial. That is my golf the next time I'm on the range which will be in Feb in Arizona. Right now, we've got a foot of snow with more on the way. Thanks for the great video!
I agree with Lonnie, you aren't listening at all, fidgeting, walking around, acting impatient. Doesn't make me want to sign up for your channel, but I will sign up for Malaskagolf, he's great!
I wouldn’t necessarily say that; he’s definitely more activity driven and Mike is more verbal.
I think the chemistry is just off. But Brendan is definitely interested, and I think in person it’d be harder to have Mike talk your ear off. I’d just wanna hit the thing haha.
I can listen to this smart man the whole day through! 🙏👌
Too bad Brendon doesn't have a clue how to listen. He is SO rude!
@@dougsjogren2649 I know, right. Brendon is in such a rush. Mike is talking to him and he is not looking at him, walking away, grabbing other clubs, teeing his ball, swinging, etc. He needs to have a little more patience and listen to the man.
@@jakeplachta7041 ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder)--my brother is like that. It can be maddening but they aren't intentionally being rude. Just can't concentrate and take too much in at once
Love your commitment to the game and the content you are uploading, but it literally makes me cringe to see you pushing the pace and barely listening to the guys you are interviewing... This guy's insights are so darn good. All in all, keep that fire burning and thanks for the videos!
Thank you...Its as if he has ADHD or something and its intensely irritating. You put Mike on for the incredible coaching ability and insight he has and you're constantly fidgeting and interrupting. Just shut the f up and listen---or concentrate and focus while he's talking and you won't ask him to repeat himself so much.
@@Pooler29 It seems as if its more important to be the student who already knows the answer rather than the student who learns the lesson.
!00% agree...very annoying to watch him not giving 100% attention and sponge it up...almost felt disrespectful.
I came here to make this exact same comment. You can see the host checking out in the middle of the instruction. Bad had it that can be corrected with some discipline. Thanks for sharing this video. I am hooked on MM instruction now.
Spot on. This guy is so lucky to spend so much time with not only Malaska but other great teachers also, but always talks over them and doesn’t get what they’re saying. He also is in some Dr.kwon vids and probably others too.
Really enjoy these types of videos where you get the insight and lessons on the course from someone like Mike! Tony, Mike, and Monte are my favorite!
This man is my hero.
Thanks for the vids, Once I started watching Mike Malaska, I really started to understand how the swing feels, and I've hit the ball better than I have in years. I was suffering from early extension, big time.
On the range I always step back and go through my pre shot routine to mimick the course. Or I like to rotate through short,mid,long irons then fairway woods, driver and repeat. Or imagine different shots on different holes to hit on the range. Change up targets. Hit different shots to the same target with different clubs. Etc. just taking a club and beating balls doesn’t do much for improvement. Great lesson here as usual from Malaska, love the course management. The thing about rolling the line in putting, you can have all sorts of wacky strikes and paths and it still rolls straight a lot of the time, it’s almost hard to get it to wobble.
Having studied Psychology at UCLA, many years ago and subsequently teaching Tennis at my academy it is great to see and hear a top top coach talking about this element of "Sport2 really, the biggest enemy is yourself, The player has to channel positive thoughts and experiences to be ale to produce, Great vlog Brendon!!
Malaska is the best hands down
I have been watching Mike’s videos. Did not have time to go to the range. Played yesterday and hit best shorts I have ever hit. I am curious how will I play after practicing on the range. Mike has simplified the swing like no one has done ever before. Thank you Mike!
This is gold ~ If you want to really understand the mental prep of golf ~ you will improve ‘ We have all done it hit a good shot forgot about something that would of made it a great shot.....Really enjoying the channel content Brendon as you are addressing really good topics that affect good and average golfers.
I try this rutin yesterday on the cource. I noticed that normally i dont enjoy enough good shots and i try to learn bad shots buy i don't do practice swing after bad shots. So i try this new rutin and it actually felt pretty good👍 I think that this could be difference why some players get better and some dont 🤔
Mike Malaska is god! Another great vid with awesome gems of wisdom! Worth a hundred golf pro lessons as far as I'm concerned.
Absolutely love these VLOG's with Malaska. I am really considering travelling from the Bay Area to get a lesson or two from him.
A popular school of thought in psychology is, that for every negative thought you have, it takes around ten positive thoughts to counteract it or get you back into a confident frame of mind.
Mike has really help me with feeling confident over the ball and reading putts. My toughest part of the game.
I don’t subscribe to his swing method but he talks so much sense
I love the Malaska videos, it has helped me so much
Rickard Johansson Thank Richard, glad they r helping you.
I will share a story here;
I was playing golf 20+ years ago, and on a par 5 that bordered the street (in San Clement CA). There was a group of high school cross country runners running on the street, and the fellow (not so great of a golfer) mentioned before he took his swing teeing off that he hoped he would not hit into those runners. Well, he did! Okay, so his ball went OB. So he tees up again, and the group is farther up the street, like 250 down the street from the tee box, says he hopes he doesn't hit into the runners again, and he promptly hits another ball in their direction and OB (FORE!!). So twice he hits balls right where he did NOT want to hit the ball -- I am convinced that was in his head! And I say this because the second shot was a pretty long powerful drive yet still OB and into the group of runners. I think this guy was thinking about the bad shot and programming to hit the bad shot, all unconsciously and automatically.
13:03 "shoulders feeling more closed than open" statement, that is now my new go to feel. Helped me alot
Great thx
I stopped going to the range a couple years ago and only play courses now. I figured on my own that as a bogey golfer playing from the tips, I take about 30-35 full swings per round in four hours. Well at the range a bucket comes with 75 balls but I’m hitting like 65 of those with full swings in about 90 mins! Lol
So taking double the amount of full swings in less than half the time. It’s silly. I think it’s okay to go once in a while or pre round or whatever. But to constantly go there Is no longer needed. The range is for total beginners. I went to the range first to get better.
I played glen abbey last summer and was paired with a couple guys that should never play that course from ANY tee box lol. They were so bad. They should just go to the range and get a little better at least. Or go to small par 3 courses.
He was too anxious the entire time and just wanted to hit ball.... sad... he isn't listening to Malaska.... he needs to learn as much as we do.
Agree I notice that with him and his personality when he’s being taught. SMH
I am a very good practice range ball striker or so I think... The biggest difference for me is when I hit a bad shot on the range, it's no big deal or no penalty etc. I just grab another ball and make the correction/adjustment and keep going. However, when we make a bad shot on the course, it's oh SHXT! There goes my round, where did that shot come from etc... And most of the time on the course I know I am going to hit a bad shot before I take the club back. When I address the ball something just doesn't feel right, so instead of backing out and starting over, I try to make adjustments at address and never get comfortable... Unfortunately, I am aware of the other players and don't want to be a slow player or look like I am trying to be a tour player. However, the extra few seconds I take backing out and re-addressing the ball is far less time than hitting a bad shot and the time it takes to look for a ball... Easier said than done... :-)
Very helpful, thank you for posting!
Great video....what he said about range practice and stopping for a minute or so in between is so true. I tend to just hit ball after ball to different targets withe same club but with no break in between. I’ll have to try that. As for the rest of the vlog, Mike has a great game plan all the way to the hole. I will definitely try that!
As for the line on the ball when I putt, it makes me worry about squaring the putter on the line on the forward stroke and then that makes me try to manipulate the club going back. What’s a good way to get the focus away from this type of bad process?
Best vlog I’ve seen on line by far.......love to see one where he shows all the types of short game shots you could hit around the green for a couples of holes....what shots you shot immediately eliminate because of the carry.....roll out ratio....and where you want your mistake to be.
This stuff is gold
Great insight from Mike!
LOVE THIS! EXCELLENT!
Some mash the club into the ground after and storm off, that works too
This may be most important teaching i’ve ever seen. Thank you Mike!! How can i practice this on course without playing a 10 hour round or upsetting other players on course? i realize i can try to emulate on range too but to get full feeling ill need course eventually.
Mike Malaska...teaching God! He has helped me dramaticly.
Priceless lesson!
Excellent
Best hole to get birdie for me are 5s.
This is definitely not a quick fix. My first round (after much back yard practice at developing a feel and swing thought ) was not as great as I imagined it might be. Forced carries, high rough, and the occasional need to drop a high pitch or approach shot onto the green and stop it presented me with challenges to "get into it" when I was just at the "practicing my feel" stage of development. Still the season's young and I see reason to continue applying these tips.
Great playing lesson, thanks!
Your practice swings at 6:00 looked excellent.
Have you noticed he always looks back to see where the club is though? I don't think that's a great idea.
my best memory in golf was 1985 when a pro golfer from ohio came down to park mammoth golf course everybody stop playing golf and watch the pro and his freinds play golf
Learn the swing mechanics, really come to know what you want to do to hit a ball and produce a particular shot. I do agree that "time between shots" is an issue, and throws off a golfer without a good concept of his/her swing mechanics. But I am convinced that if one knows his/her swing mechanics "cold," that the confidence level rises way up, and good shots are frequent and regular.
I also appreciate what Malaska said about "not brooding" over a bad shot -- to analyze the bad shot, work out what was done wrong, determine what was correct, and then move on, without negative emotions getting in the way of the thinking process. This is what I have been striving to do recently, and I feel it works great.
Sure wish Mike would teach heads up putting. It's the only way to putt.
Mike is an absolute jewel. Thanks for all these videos Mate.
It is really remarkable - the "Be Better Golf"-guy is pushing and interrupting and Mike just sticks to his pace... and that is the case in all the videos of these two. It is annoying but it REALLY works. Mike on his own is not as infotaining!
I just noticed that Honma driver in Mike’s bag!
I also like to get as close as possible since I don't have a problem with any shots inside 150 yards.
My problem is when I get the putter in my hands. LOL
Thanks for the vlog. Very helpful and thanks for all your insight. I do have a question on the putting. You mentioned that you would look from the front to establish the line. You then went back of the ball as well. Why so?
That's to check if the ball is lined up properly based on what he saw from the front.
Great video Brendan. These videos with Mike are amazing.
love this
Great video
On 13:00 I tend to spin over , still I feel like I’m doing great shots effortless and straight is that a bad swing?
Does malaska know jack Nicklaus? He hardly brings him up.
How thick is the grip on that wedge? It looks quite fat?
Knudsen...experience, evaluate, adjust.
How do you set up your grips? Looks like you have a lot of wraps on the bottom hand.
Yeah it is a tennis overwrap
@@BEBETTERGOLF thanks for the info I'm going to look into doing that for my grips
4:09 Get a feel for the swing(shape of shot) then when you get over the ball you duplicate.....guess what 99.99999999% of golfers will never NOT do this one thing to play better.
Yeah, they get a fee for what they want to do then right before they take it back or at some point in the backswing or transition they replace that feeling with what they think they “should” be doing
@@BEBETTERGOLF amazing.....i was thinking just that! Its why some pros play so well with swings that dont look technically sound! They dont replace what they felt.
His website added 30 yards.. probably 4 strokes of my H.C!!
This guy doesn't listen to anything Mike is saying. He is just in a rush to hit the ball. Why are you walking away when he is giving you great advice. It really looks disrespectful and bad looking at it as a viewer. You look like you are not coachable.
What's wrong with this guy? Mike has been around the block, giving solid gold advice, and this kid is so dismissive, and arrogantly complacent.
10:30 *facepalm*
Love it
Compare top of real swing at 4:57 to top of correction at 5:22. You're over swinging, my friend. #threequarterswingforyou
Is this a joke? This dude acts so bored with everything Mike is saying and walks away he’s talking.
He makes sense but is really annoying
