Holy crap! Amazing! Glad it helped.

Nice Playing @starfish08 🎉🎉🎉🎉how great is that? Just saw this super pumped for you. Need to get you to send me a video so we can post it up here.

So great to hear how much you like it.

Best of luck! Be sure to keep me informed on how it’s coming along. Hope the scores are dropping.

Pays off to take the time and be strategic with your target and club choice.

Really please you’re enjoying these videos. Be sure to keep watching and let me know if there’s any specific content you’d like us to create.

Thanks so much!

Only just seen this comment. Thank you so much for the amazingly kind words having a lot of fun sharing my passion for coaching. Let me know what the content videos you’d like to see.

Glad to hear you liked it.

With better strategy you can definitely shoot lower scores with the swing you have today.

Randomly reading comments. If you can handle sacrilege and sarcasm as humor, then I strongly advise the Golf Sidekick. He does give a very minor amount of technique, but mostly mental and course strategies. Check out the sacred lectures. Cheers!

Love it! Hopefully it helps them break 90 a bit more!

Glad it was helpful!

So pleased you like the content.

Welcome aboard! So great to hear you find the content so valuable.

Glad it was helpful!

Isn’t it a great one? I love it because then you can use your own data to make decisions not have some random Pro tell you what to do from around the Green show yourself what works best for you?

Glad it was helpful! Try it out next time you at the course and let us know how it goes.

I actually played today and tried it out! Ironically found myself in more bunkers than usual (new course to me) but had much more makeable chips/up and down chances. I'll try it on my home course next. Usually I more just pick a side to "miss" to and then whether I want to be front/middle/back of the green.@@thescoringmethod

I’m glad to hear you’re able to Yucett keep us up-to-date on how the score is coming

Thank you!

Glad it was helpful!

What are the contact would you like to see? How can we help you achieve your golfing goals

So true right it’s amazing how when we get in trouble, we narrow our focus because we only have one option and we execute the shop yet we can stand in the fairway with the perfect yardage, overthink it, and hit the worst shot of the month.

@paulwilsom6511 really please enjoy the video. What are the lessons would you like me to put together always looking for content that answers the questions of my followers.

@@thescoringmethodI can give you a long list. Maybe just do one video on each one. The vast majority of golfers are not going to be that interested in these stats/lessons/rules. But there are many, many golfers that are craving to see this info. You could develop a big following doing each one, just one at a time as a series. Some you have done already but here's my long list. - from 100 to 55 yards out, approach shots are basically the same distance from the hole at 18 feet. Don't try hero shots extending a 100 yard approach into a 55 yard one. Hit the fairway instead. It is the same result from 100 yards to 55 yards. - Fairway shots from 100 yards are more accurate than 55 yard shots from the rough. Average fairway distance from 100 yards on the fairway is 15 feet from the hole but it is 20 feet from the rough at 55 yards. - Long Par3's and long approach shots, inaccuracy means just aim to the middle of green. Flag-hunting and laser shooting is a fools errand. - Average green size is 38 feet from the centre. You have room to hit the green but still be 38 feet from centre. Approach shots from 175 yards are 38 feet away so target is always just the middle of the green. For smaller greens, even 150 yards out means target centre only since since average dispersion is 25 feet from the hole, about the size of small green courses. - 2-3 foot putts are close to guaranteed, 5 foot make percentage is only 75%, 8 feet is 50%, 12 feet is 25%, 20 feet is 10%. - Bear down hard on the putts within 12 feet then because this is where you actually have a chance to make the putt. Read it hard, make sure it is one foot by weight. But outside 15 feet is just get it inside 3 foot circle for the close to guaranteed. Weight is 10 times more important than line from this distance. Bear down hard on the inside 12 footers but get the weight right outside 12 feet. - Average approach shot from 100 yard to 55 yards is 18 feet away with only a 10%-15% make rate. Birdies are accidents where you pulled or pushed the shot. - Because missing the green on your approach shot costs you an average 0.35 shots more. 60 foot putts are just as accurate as 30 foot chips. - On Par5's go for the green on shot2 or get itas close to the green as you can. Lay-ups on Par5's cost you 0.6 extra shots. 0.6 shots is a huge differential, one of the largest differentials. No lay-ups but exceptions for water, trees, OB type penalty/risks but go for the green. - Par4's, hit the fairway and 100 yard to 55 yard are the same result anyway so just get it inside 100 yards as the first goal, inside 55 yards on the fairway is 2nd goal if you hit it far or the hole is short. - Short game inside 30 yards is where the most strokes are saved by good shots versus poor shots. This is the yardage that makes the most difference in the game. Short game inside 30 yards is by far the most important part of golf towards scoring (the slope of the shots taken line is the most steep on a chart which means this is the most important part of the game). This applies to both putting and chipping. - Fairway shots are very consistently much closer to the hole than rough or bunker shots. - Except green-side bunker shots are more accurate than chip shots from the rough. Green-side bunkers are not that bad. - But outside 200 yards, rough and bunker shots are so inaccurate, it is not worth going for the green at all. Lay-up to inside 40 yards on the fairway which results in lower scores. - 160 yard fairway shot has the same accuracy as a 100 yard rough shot. Fairways are king once again. Bomb and gouge is actually not true according to the numbers. - Bunker shots from 110 yard to 80 yards are actually worse than a 150 yard bunker shot. Avoid the mid-distance bunkers at all costs. - On Par5's avoid all bunkers (except greenside) because you have to lay-up (costing you 0.6 strokes) and especially avoid the 110 yard to 50 yard ones. - From 130 yards out, fairway shots are 14 feet closer than rough shots and 20 feet closer than bunker shots. Almost a stroke really according to the putting numbers. - Dispersion pattern from 40 yards is 12 feet from hole. Fairway is 10 feet, rough is 15 feet so flag-hunting is now okay and get your shots close to green as you can if you can. 100 yard to 55 yard is the same more-or-less but 40 yards is now considerably better. - Shots from 150 yards out / dispersion pattern just doesn't give you enough room for any flag-hunting. Just centre of the green. Missing the green costs you 0.35 shots. I really like your vids when you are giving a lesson based on the stats.

Glad it was helpful!

My pleasure it is just so much fun to be out there creating content and getting all these amazing comments just wants me to get up there and make more. Please let me know if there are specific things you’d like to know more about to help you achieve your goals.

Appreciate the comment!! Hope some of the other past vids help as well.

Glad it was helpful! What would you like more of Jimmy ?

I would love to see a video on the 40-50, and 70 to 100 yard shots approach suggestions like you did with the 130 and by the green shots. I struggle from 100 and in.

Thank you so much for subscribing! I'm glad you found the advice helpful.

Two tools are better than one maybe try adding the hybrid as a 3rd.

Great insight! Thanks for sharing and glad it helped. Avoiding blow up holes is huge for you to accomplish your goal!

Bob, thank you my man keep us updated on how it’s coming along. Look forward to hearing about Lois scores here real soon.

Thank Kev!!! Let me know how it helps your score

You're so welcome! Thank you so much for the kind words Kevin be sure to let me know any other videos you’d like us to create to help you lower scores.

Happy to hear that! So important to start understanding how to strategically make your way around the golf course.

Love that! Glad to here you've been doing the testing and proving to yourself what's the best shot for you.

That si the truth and yes so true less pressure and better shots

Great idea! We'll definitely do that.

Where do you play golf lets get you out to film your skills.

Were you able to check out the wedge video I put together hopefully that’ll help you to get some good distances and saves some strokes

Simon that’s just awesome my man I’ve only just seen these comments wasn’t sure how to find them in UKposts I know that sounds bad but my focus is on creating content and coaching. Didn’t realize I was getting so many great comments would love to see what are the videos you’d like us to make and make sure to keep us updated on when you break 85.

@@thescoringmethod Update: I've just returned from a 1 week coaching trip organised by Goodwood. Of course, the tee, range and sand lessons were amazing and helped fixed some weaknesses in my game. However, the shared insight from our pros was eye-opening. They both reiterated decision-making (taking my medicine, clubbing up to address my failed approach shots, less use of driver off the tee etc), but my biggest takeaway: stop putting so many cards in!!🥴🥴 Why? Because I need to take more time practicing shots on the course regardless of outcome. Time will tell!

That is so great to hear and knowing that Jack, Nicholas’s dad work with him to hit the middle of every Green makes me think that it probably works pretty well

Conservative strategy, cocky swing

Thank you so much for the wonderful comment. Have you been able to put into play yet? Hope it’s gonna bring you some low scores.

Great strategy! Simple conservative chips that set up an easy 2 putt are key. Don't play risky shots that can lead to double bogeys!

Also try the 7 iron for the longer shots and hybrid from the fringe

Definitely recommend testing the hybrid and putter. Most golfers should be pulling out those options before a lob wedge.

Congrats on runner up you and you learned a lot which is the most important.

I think when you learn it yes it does take more time but the next thing you know it just becomes a natural instinct and you’re able to speed up play because you’re taking less shots

😂 oh I just put a huge smile on my face that’s like most of my students they once hit it 190 or the sixth side, so why not pull it out every hole when I’m at 190.

Jason, give me a thought and feedback when you say that’s not how you find your average could you give more insights on that?

I missed it at first too. He's counting in yards, but wants the result in feet. Hence a multiplication by 3 to change units, prior to the division by 3 for the average (effectively cancelling each other out) 🤓

It’s true you can see a golfer who has actually been taught how to score versus a golfer who’s just been taught how to swing their scoring IQ and club selection, ruins, their score not their skills and Technique.

Your opponent is phil mickelson

100%. Maybe the Hammer throw would be the proper choice.

@thescoringmethod I just don't like to draw attention to myself with the "hammer throw" war cry

Too much Supra-nation and not enough lower body using ground forces😂

@@robertcourt8593 stick with the classy club toss instead

Keep washing Steve lots of more content to come always appreciate the comments

Still probably gonna be way less punishing on a mishit

That’s a great comment. You have to pick the shop that you believe can get to the Whole, the closest, the most consistently and sometimes it really slow greens. The solution might be to pitch it back there if you’re a better golfer.

Video in the work and on its way

That’s a great point I think the thing about the three pet though is it still allows you to make the bogey. Where is the bunker can lead to even higher scores. But being able to have a basic pit shot out of the bunker with the right set up and get out first time is definitely a key step to consistently to breaking 85

@@thescoringmethod Yes , I see. A lot depends on your skill set. I've always felt ok out of bunkers and getting out first time to somewhere around 10-20 feet or maybe better. But yes , I do try to avoid them and I would sooner be on the green. And you can get a horrible lie or bad stance in a bunker. suppose much depends on whether you have "bunker fear " or not. Everyone has their thing , for me its tight lies. If I feel I can get a club under the ball ( even thick rough) then I'm ok.

Carey is to start to understand how to take the big numbers off the scorecard and that means put the ball and play not fixing the slice. Just never taking the driver out. Not hitting flock shots around the green hitting hybrid chips and making sure you get the practice screen before you play and work on putting pace and short putts so you avoid the three putts. I see that most people believe that they need to work on their skill sets, rather than just their scoring.

You want it to stay up there that’s true PGA Pro skills

Glad you like the video and sometimes you don’t wanna get it back out of the tree that is just needs to stay there

With in reason. I would say you need to know how avoid the trouble by being able to miss it where you can score. As you get better you get to hit it where you want more often but still start with where you can’t go.

Hahahahhaa yes brother. It’s hard to make a gameplan around an incinsittent swing

Thanks!

You got it!

Yes and no. So 27 paces times by 3 to make feet then dived by 3 as you have 3 golf balls = 27 they cancel each other out

Hey, I love the honest feedback it’s funny sometimes how we don’t know that we’re repeating ourselves over and over only when someone’s honest enough to give you a good critique that helps

That is a really great point if you have the opportunity to put it always put it. If not, then take the hybrid if you can’t take the hybrid, then use the bump and run chip. If you can’t ship it then use the pitch if you can’t pitch it, then lob it, but most people just go straight to the lob wedge and the basic fringe part or chip into a difficult shot. Really appreciate the comment.

I love more pars but that’s to be single digits. To break 85 it’s about getting rid of blow up holes.

Trust me i know about blow up holes. In 2011 I was leading my club championship after the first round at even. Day 2 standing on the 13th tee tied for the lead. 345 yd par 4, needless to say i end up with a 9 on the hole, really bad decisions for the entire hole.

Honestly most people should move up a set of tees. Take your 5 iron carry distance * 36 and that distance should be what tees you play from.

​@@thescoringmethodwish I could get my weekend Golf Group to understand this!!!😢 everybody wants to hit from 'the tips'! Stupid and it makes the game less enjoyable😢

Lower scores in Golf is all about good misses.

Great glad it’s bringing you a smile. Hope it also helps you to shoot lower scores.

Agree in someway but it really depends on the persons dispersion if they’re missing the ball 20 to 30 yards off of their intended target then I would suggest if there’s a water hazard 15 yards left of the flag they would need to aim 15 yards right of the flag, which may put them off the green, but is better than being in the water. What are your thoughts?

Trust me, I have duffed it before in pressure situations in tournaments oral human.

Thanks for the comment. Let me know where I messed up on my math not only am I dyslexic i’m probably also pretty bad at math, but I feel like I’m a decent coach.
