  • In response to a number of your inquiries, I wanted to create this video about dealing with handling pressure when putting. I again discuss the importance of the pre-shot routine (this time on the putting green) and how it is the basis for handling pressure, including when experiencing the "yips".

    You know what Padraig, you're a great dude for doing all these. Talk about giving back. Good on you, really, I just found these and will take the time to watch them all and be better for it. Can't wait to root for you down the stretch cause you're gonna win again!!

    'It will bring peace to you' 'Familiarity is what you're looking for in your putting, not more than that' I love the way thig guy talks. He's suffered all the pain and anxiety we have over the ball, he's eliminated the bs and stupidity we tell ourselves and reduced it down to a simple truth. I need more of this.

  • @jamiesloan7259
    @jamiesloan7259 Před 2 lety +4

    You nailed it when you said “use your practice stroke for the speed”. Then…. Repeat that stroke. That takes care of that aspect. I see so many people take practice strokes that are ridiculously too hard, or too fast. It doesn’t help them at all. Once I get the speed I need with my practice stroke, I have 1 task. Start it perfectly online. Period! I also don’t worry about the outcome, just like he said. They all won’t go in, but you’ll be surprised at how many that do. Great video!

    Huge congrats on your first US Senior Open title! You thoroughly demonstrated all the topics you have taught in the final round yesterday -- putting under tremendous pressure, working the ball, reading the green, pre-shot routine, tee-shot strategy, and everything. Very well-earned title, amazing win. Congratulations!

    Putting is a major issue in my game. To the point where I dred anything within 5ft. Watching this gave me some great tips that I hope to take with me to work on.

  • @golferkevt
    @golferkevt Před 2 lety +6

    Thank-you - My putting thought is " give the ball to the hole " helps me to be smooth, not rushed under pressure over short putts.

  • @csensefs
    @csensefs Před 2 lety +4

    Padraig, thank you so much for this video. I can see it's going to help me improve my putting already. My putting is reasonable but lately I'd be dogged by overthinking... "Get this one to the hole" "hit it firm" "give it a bit more", I can go on. Your instructions here have help me consolidate in my mind that I just need to go though the process and execute.

  • @d3vilspawn11
    @d3vilspawn11 Před 2 lety +1

    I always wondered why pros never gave tips instead we get guys that were never any good teaching. well now we see the difference. This has to be the best instructional series as far as explaining the feel and the real in golf. Kudos to you Padraig. I've missed watching you on tour. Last time I seen you was at Oakland hills, MI. I would love to see and hear some on the course thoughts as far as managing your way around the course. Thanks again, this is awesome!

  • @russellstuart4524
    @russellstuart4524 Před 2 lety +3

    I saw your chipping explanation re distances that each club goes in the air and then releases a long time ago possibly Fox. Focus on where you want the ball to land and select appropriate club. It is excellent. Can you send a link or redo that session. Great advice, appreciated. Russell Brisbane

    Your tip on looking at the blade of grass to handle the pressure is one of the most relevant pieces of advice I have heard! I am a putting worrier, so much so that I haven't been able to take putter back at it;s worst! This tip changed everything. I am working on lines etc and making more putts but I am calm now, trusting the process. Thanks Paddy

  • @jamiesloan7259

    Don’t get me wrong…. I miss 5 footers sometimes(like everyone else). However, yesterday I made them all(2 for birdie on 17, and 18, and a few for par). I just stepped up and said “start it perfectly online, with touch”. This kept me from thinking about the club face, or stroke mechanics. Just perform the task at hand. Don’t worry about what it looks like.

    • @Lazkir
      @Lazkir Před 2 lety

      The tip about looking at a blade of grass really has helped me loads. My last comment was a month ago and since I've followed this tip and committed to the stroke, my putting has vastly improved. So much so that I've dropped 4+ shots on my handicap (15 to 10.5), mainly down to not three putting anywhere near what I used to.
      Once again, thanks Paddy and good luck next week at the open!

    @PatrickMclaughlinRock Před 2 lety +1

    Was 1 handicap in 2003 got the yips, couldn't get it into the hole from 3 feet, changed grip of putter and changed to a pencil grip, cured it for awhile then tried cack handed and it worked for awhile then the yips came back, started looking at the hole and it worked for awhile, then reverted between them all, I'm 6 handicap now and even though my gir us good I've trouble going low, I'll come back to this video a few times as I'll take on board about the 1 thought and the blade of grass between putter and ball 👍

    The secret is RELEASE (or swing) the putter. Even Tiger was bragging no end about how his son was out there releasing on those big father/son pressure putts on TV. He must have mentioned that at least 4 times. And the kid made them all. In my opinion, this is the main reason that he will some day be a touring pro. The kid can putt.

  • @thechampionspath4715
    @thechampionspath4715 Před 3 měsíci

    Playing well under pressure, especially in putting, is an attitude thing. People don't like pressure, so they freak out. Being clutch is about making a decision: Do it or don't do it. To succeed under pressure, you must trust your game. Any doubts as to either ability or skill and you'll have a hard time. Practice, and ingraining the feeling of hitting putts of any length into the hole is paramount to developing trust, and understanding that when you're forced to play well, you must trust and believe in your training.

    I have decided I will stop watching other golf tip videos - just as Paddy says, there is a variety of different swing tips and thoughts out there; and I've even watched successive vids where the advice conflicts. Each one works for the CZcamsr giving the advice but confusing as hell to me!!! So I'm simply going to stick with Mr Harrington from now on. And it will bring me peace. Happy days.

  • @tubero911
    @tubero911 Před 7 dny

    Almost every practice putt that I see amateurs make is wildly faster than the pace that they will actually need. If they did hit the ball at that pace, the ball would roll 30ft past the hole.
