Maybe an affirmation for you Micah but this shows what we clearly knew having watched you play for years:
1-need to get more dialed in wedges (may be club up, let go of fogle)
2-great mid to long iron player.
3-need to get consistent with drivers. You should think about getting in fairways more often than Hitting it long. With your speed, you will get over 300 with easier swing. Those huge left or right occasional curves are also hurting you off the tee.
Well said! I think we all know where is game suffers, but this video shows it more than anything!
parasocial
This might be one of the best videos you’ve ever done. Super super cool I feel like a golf nerd but what an insightful video. Ryan is a stand up guy with a lot of game.
I think unlimited access to an accurate lauch monitor is a definite advantage, especially for distance control.
Agreed. Accurate carry distance is an absolute must. Dispersion is a little tough for me on a LM. Especially indoors. Just hard to trust my alignment.
Biggest takeaway from this video is to hit greens. Forget shooting at pins. I started doing the same two seasons ago. Used to play for throwing darts and trying to make birdies. Changed things up and instead went for greens and pars. Ended up playing my best two seasons in a long time. Even shot a 63 a couple weeks ago.
alot of courses are adding launch monitors to their ranges and i feel that will really help us average joes
you took mulligans and 8ft gimmes you did not shoot 63 liar

Consistent Yardage doesn’t happen until consistent contact.
Launch monitor + nice practice facility + time :)
I think it was Lee Trevino who once said, that as a scratch golfer, you're closer to being a 15 handicapper than you are a tour pro.
Who is Lee Trevino? We want to hear more from this Micah character.
MICAH realizing the keys to golf in real time, but not quite understanding them is priceless content
He simply doesn’t get It. If you look at contact every other shot he hits It fat. The pro never does. And he’s even more dishonest with himself when It comes to short game. 😂
Great content, as always! Ryan comes across as such a great personality; warm, relaxed, generous, and of course very professional and dedicated to the game as well.
You can hear the difference in ball striking. 1 or 2 of Micah's per round sounded really good. Everyone of Ryan's shots sounded so flush. These guys are just on another level. Great content
Love the content you are putting out Micah!
Wow! This video was incredible. This better than any video I’ve ever seen really shows the difference between a very good golfer and a pro. Amazing content dude!
Shows how good the pro golfers truly are at consistent ball striking. Really quality video
This a really good video! It shows a really nice comparison between PGA level versus Scratch. It also gives you a good idea of where Micah needs to improve! Nice job!
One of my favorite videos that you have done so far. Very informative. I am a golf nerd. These kind of things are really cool.
Fantastic video! Love seeing the reality of what scratch is and what a pro is! Man that dude is consistent!!! Bang in every time and if he was off he made it back! Love the setup!
Love this...a putting, pitching, chipping video like this would be dope, and where you will see your biggest differences...
Loved this…yes, I think this should be a monthly video or even weekly as it was enjoyable and entertaining
Really cool exchanges today-felt like a solid golfer’s clinic!❤️⛳️
Possibly the most creative idea and informative golf videos on CZcams.
This is one of the finest comparison vids i've seen on youtube, and Micah you're a fantastic golfer! Count me as a new subscriber with content like this!
Having said that, i think it's obvious how you're a scratch golfer -- those booming drives, even if they're offline, put you in spots that short-hitters can only daydream about. That's not a knock on the rest of your game because that's fantastic too - it's just that those 75-175 yard shots that the pro hit so well just take so much practice to dial in, and so much practice just to STAY dialed in, that i think very good amateurs probably don't realize how much work it takes. Or the toll on the body either. Those guys are pros, and they've certainly earned their status. I don't think 99% of amateurs would be playing if they had to work that hard at it :)
Enjoying this one Micah, God Bless you and Katie....🏌️🙏
John Daly said this years ago "150 and in" is what separates the pros from the rest. Seeing it here.
This is great content and relates to all golfers. Well done Tig. Totally unique.
Great video. It is crazy how accurate PGA tour players are. Knowing your yardage is very important.
Love this concept
Micah I definitely want to see more of this content as I a stats need too! Great job!
yeah dude this type of video is really good. more please.
This is wicked informative. I would love to see this with the short game and putting if that's possible. It's a straight up light bulb moment of seeing exactly how you stack up against the best in the world. Taking the test with a PGA Tour player taking it at the exact same time is just priceless.
So where abouts in New England do you herald from? Wicked informative indeed though.
@lpeabody Northeast. Technically, Mid Atlantic. Pennsylvania. This is what happens in the military. You pick up verbiage and slang from different areas of the globe.
This is super interesting ...good stuff Micah.
That was very cool! Thank you for sharing. Very eye opening. Love it!
Very interesting and informative video, it really points out the weak and strong aspects of one's game. This was a great idea for a video.
Matt Fryer just posted another interesting video: playing the same par 5 eighteen times. An interesting watch if you have the time since it demonstrates the importance of consistency and course management. His scores varied between 4 and 8 for those reasons, and he is a pro golfer (not a tour pro).
You're approaching your goal by gaining knowledge of what it takes, good choice.
Thanks for this video. That was so educational for me as a golf coach. These comparison tests are great for me and my students. Great job. And as the motto says These guys are good😂
Wow.. really showed me I need to work on my wedge game. Never knew you could get this consistent with it
When I was a 8 to 10 handicap I used a more for giving Iron set like-ping irons . When I got to be a 2 to 3 handicap I had to switch to more consistent golf club to control my yardage so when I hit the center of the club, the ball wouldn’t go 15 yards further I needed one that went 2 yards further from hitting around the center of the face so I went to Titleist blades. until I hurt my shoulder and I’m no longer scratch golfer. I’m still an eight but not a very good 8.
Great comparison content Micah. Love this 🙏👏🏻💪🏻
Best way to practice like the pros 🟧 Really cool content by you and Ryan🔥⛳
The fact that Ryan improved after dialling in those first few shots is incredible. That’s what a pure competitive pro can do. There’s a difference between a good golfer and one that can win.
Great video Tig, loved this.
This was both educational and entertaining. Thanks for the content Micah , you're a good guy .
Micah has become a lot more positive. Got to love the attitude. Maybe consider switching into the p770s to help with miss hits. Thanks for the content.
Prime example why short game is everything! Great video!!
Thanks.. that was very interesting and seemed a very true reflection of 'the difference'
I actually enjoyed this alot, more of this Micah!
Excellent video. Don’t believe I’ve seen any content like this prior anywhere
All of your posts are great, but this has been the best. Ryan has crazy skills. Amazing.
This is by far the best video I've seen that clearly illustrates the difference between pros and good players. Well done!
Outstanding video, great work.
Great eye opening comparison! I could watch this type of content all day and only wish I had the Trackman to practice these type of shots with the feedback daily.
Biggest thing that I learned here is that you’re a Hoyt fan!! Hell yes!! Love my Hoyt
One of the best videos yet! More of this!
Awesome vid man. Make more of these
That was such an insightful and interesting video. Thank you. I was wondering the difference of scratch vs pga in the short game. I bet that's where the big difference will be.
Awsome content micah loved it
I love the way Micah talks about consistency as if that’s the only difference and it’s a small difference. Consistency is the only difference between any player of any level. The only difference between a 12 handicap and a scratch golfer is consistency.
Interesting content! Get to working on them wedges 👊🏼
this was really awesome to watch. now, if you guys can do a short game and putting version!
Love the video, different but very interesting to watch. Love it
Awesome video, I’d love to see one in the short game department like you mentioned 👍🏼
That was so awesome Thanks Fantastic content
Loved this! More please 🙏🏼
super cool video. Very insightful!
Great information in this video. And man, pro golfers are just different. Also, love seeing that Hoyt hat. We need more archers. I'm a lousy golfer, but I've long held the belief that people that are really good at golf can be excellent archers.
Tig! That track man is a great training aid to get to the next level! I see the Hoyt hat, do you bow hunt? I’m a low single digit golfer who caddies for a living and play at a high level and I still compete amateur a lot, and I really enjoy watching your channel a lot! Keep living the dream and I’ll keep watching and supporting! When I’m not shooting my bow or hunting! Thanks!
Great video concept!!!!!
Really cool video, would love to see one of your Pga event in Canada
That was one of the best golf videos I have watched in a very long time. Loved the comparisons to a Pro and where the issues are for a scratch golfer. Maybe add a 10 handicap golfer to the same matrix to see where actual humans would fall in this!
This was an excellent clinic. Thx!
I didn't think I'd like this content but I really got into it half way through
More of this content please this was great
Sweet vid! Would be amazing to have one of the trackmans. Makes practicing look pretty fun
That was pretty cool to see.
Most scratch or really good players can look impressive off the tee but the biggest difference gets amplified the closer you get to the hole.
Inside 150 yards pros are just wicked good and scrambling around the greens, not to mention they literally don’t miss inside 6’ (i know they do but they rarely miss) where as scratch golfers aren’t as consistent generally speaking.
I have started to go into this phase myself for my golf game where my main focus is to improve inside 150 yards and work like a mad man on my putting.
One thing that has made my putting go from average to actually starting to become a real threat on the greens is using a metronome. I set mine at 72-73 beats per minute and do a (I think its called 3/4? Beat)
example being *beat takeaway *beat end of backstroke *beat right at the end of follow thru
This will probably feel insanely slow to most people starting out but just practice this inside on the carpet or wherever no worrying about speed or direction just match up the tempo into a smooth stroke. Another great “feel” is to take the putter back and then pause and hold, count to 3 then release and roll the putt without “hitting” it. This will train you to have a smooth tempo without forcing a “hit” on the ball. It will make your speed control insane after a few attempts.
Micah I hope you see this and hope you try out the metronome and pause technique. Don’t make putting complicated but please spend at least 1 hour each day working on putting inside of 10 feet. If you look at make percentages it shows that inside of 10 feet is what we need to work on the most and then a little bit of time on lag putts. But get deadly inside of 10 feet. Get smooth tempo and work with doing some around the clock 6 footer drills for something more fun. Don’t add a bunch of unnecessary training aids, tempo and if I had to pick one I would check out the “straight putt no matter what” as it isn’t very intrusive of a training but helps with Green reading and line choice.
Good luck, hope someone gets better from reading this ❤
What you said is accurate but I have to laugh because there's always that person and I happen to know that person. Haha. He is so incredibly inconsistent off of the tee. He can crush it but seems to miss fairways incredibly frequently. He is a scratch or better golfer. He rarely shoots above par. He makes everything after the tee box look like a joke. If he is within 200 yards you can count on his next shot almost being a guaranteed putt. He is constantly in a state of anger. He can slow his driver down and improve his accuracy but distance suffers greatly. He has been working on it with coaches for years and can never seem to get his driver where he wants it. It's a true anomaly. He was a successful D1 golfer. It was incredibly sad to watch him not reach his goals because of non-iron clubs.
Very cool insight. Just goes to show how CRAZY good all the tour players are.
Great content. Eliminate the big miss with driver and tighten up the short game and your there.
WE NEED MORE OF THESE!!!!
I enjoyed this content, more please.
Hi Micah, more of these please
Great content!! Take it to the short game area cause I feel that is the true differentiator.
Loving the content
Micah thinks he hits every club way farther than he actually does that is why he is constantly short
Super interesting to watch.
Really enjoy this kind of video. Work on your wedge and putting and boom. You're there.
This was an awesome video
Very good Micah!
this video is sick, great idea
Very interesting data for sure...I think the main thing is practice
Love to see this content on a short game.
This was really interesting, and hopefully informative for you, are you playing a combo set at the moment, seems like you’re more comfortable with 4-6 irons over your short irons
If you are constantly coming up short, you likely don’t know your yardages. So a trackman , foresight, any of those launch monitors will be good to help you with that. Good luck!
I think if he switched to the p770’s like grant did would be beneficial…. On his slightly off centered mishits he’s coming 15 yards shorts.. go with something more forgiving
Really love this 😊😊😊😊
Quality idea and very interesting stats.
this is an excellent video!!
great content really dials in the mindset "raise the florr"
This is interesting to me. I was sitting here thinking "hit the 8 iron!" during the 2nd group of shots.
If you go to a range that has the Trackman or TopTracer setup, they'll have approach games that are close to what they're doing here.
Thanks for the video mate! Cool stuff. With the sponsor thing - the factor meals - I'm just wondering about whether it would be safer (more washing up though!) to transfer out of the container and into a ceramic bowl before heating? Just thinking about transfer of plastics into your meal mate. Worth a google and see what you reckon
This video was dope! Do other simulators do this kind of training or just the trackman?
Great Video Mate!
This video highlights Trackman's competitive advantage - they have god-tier software, married to outstanding hardware. And they have years of data to bring it all together. Kinda hard to compete with. Great vid.
Difference between Scratch to PGA tour winner 12 shots. I’m off scratch and if I was on my game and playing my home course where i have local knowledge and know all the lines on the greens would still want 6 shots a side shots against a pga tour pro top 100 ranked golfer in the world. Even then I wouldn’t want to play for more than $10.
Maybe people willl finally stop claiming Micah only needs to work on his, "mental game." This literally shows that the thing to work on is, "hit the ball close to where you are aiming game."
The mental aspect covers a wide range, it is also very relevant in this little test. See how Ryan is able to push himself and get in the positive numbers on the final strokes more than once
Very interesting video. How did you pick your target to aim to?
