And, of course, “Some live and learn, some just live.”

I’m getting older and lost some distance. I’ve tried to find more distance to no avail. I was becoming resentful of not being able to keep up with my playing partner distance wise. I’ve realized that attitude was reflecting on my game. I’m trying to let it go. This video hits the spot.

Also, get fitted for the right driver for you. I'm a 7.6 handicap and I'm in my 60s. I got fitted a few years ago for my Maverick driver. And it worked for a few years...tee shot distances starting dropping late last year even though I'm working out the same. Got fitted for a Paradym driver and added 30 yards by slowing down my swing effort and getting a regular shaft. I'm back to average tee shot of 245-260 yards and the smoothest swings can roll out to 280+. Game changer for me. And the old Maverick is still a great looking club but I can't work it anymore.

I stumbled on to you and watched several of your videos over the last week. Especially like the fact that you don’t spend time trying to teach me some new grip or tweak my swing. Instead, your focused advice on course management is absolutely tremendous. And very much appreciated. As a casual golfer for over two decades, I averaged roughly in the mid 120’s. This year I’ve committed to playing more and have finally made a meaningful improvement to around 108 - 111. Two days ago, I played my first round approaching the course as you suggested in one of your videos with only the mindset of managing each hole. I added one stroke to each hole in my mind, and broke down each hole into relatively safe shots with a plan for the next shot. No Hero Shots. I finished with my first ever 99. Then today, I backed that up with yet another 99. Thank you for breaking this game down into such a simple and easy to understand plan. I had a lot of fun the last two days.

amigo, golf is all in the mind...not in the swing. look at lee trevino, calvin peete, and raymond floyd...what do they have in common? funny looking swings, and many professional tournament wins! hogan said that golf was 20% talent, and 80% management... that is why this guy is so good for the average golfer...he teaches everyone how to manage the game they have at the moment. from 95 to 85 isn't as far as it seems...just practice your mechanics separately from your scoring. When you're on a golf course, forget about your swing, and think about your 'shot'. concentrate on contact with the ball...watch it happen, and be amazed!

Great scoring MBB. One of the major key points you make again and again is that confidential club choice of the first tee. Great advice.

Loving all the new videos player. Snow is finally melting and getting back to golf in the intermountain west states and am so stoked. Lets Go!

Yeah this guy has popped up on my feed a couple of times. Watched a little bit and each time I say to myself, this guy is great and relatable. Really great work. I must subscribe

After watching these videos consistently all year, I finally decided to adopt the way of the playa for a round. I haven't played in the past few years, and would average in the 45 range when I was playing consistently every week. This year I've struggled to break 50, and the time I attempted to play like a playa I shot 45 and 48!

What a round! And nearly all irons and such great advice. Totally natural logical superb golf.

Great video. I am trying to become a better ball striker. I am trying to become more consistent at getting the ball in the air and creating effortless speed and not “forcing” my swing. It’s a work in progress. Love your content.

Great advice as always Matty!!!!

Dude. Waddaplaya, waddastart. That was crazy! The little high-pitched, wheezy giggle on hole 4 was icing on the cake.

today I went to the course with the PLAYA mentality.. Ive been playing golf for 9 months.. (100+hdcp) I only played 9 holes and I shot a 38.. you help me so much.. its like I am playing a whole different game.. I never felt more secure about my shots.. thanks man! tomorrow I am playing 18.. Ill post the results here!

Love the strategy session and thought process you provide. Keep those inserts and socks! And never get rid of that putter! You are a putting savant. Really enjoy your videos. Thanks

Mr. Boom Boom, I have never not once purchased anything from a KZread link or because someone said it was great.... until now. I'm a walker and in my 50's and had hot spots after my last 9 holes.. Your detailed, illustrative, and continuous comments got me thinking. Your methods have helped me improve my game so hell, why not try those insoles and get to wear some 'statement' styled socks as well. I got both, used your code and link so I hope my small contribution helps you succeed and bring us all more amazing golf concept videos and highlight more products. Thank you for being a true friend of the sport! ..Oh yeah, totally stealing your quote "Sometimes you win, sometimes you learn".

The socks are tricky to get on. They work slightly backwards but the TOP side says TOP. I was dubious. But dammmmnn i love it. Waddaplay

I always tell my buddies that socks and insoles are the most underrated parts of a golfers equipment. Now look who’s the smartest!! You should do a WITS (what’s in the shoes) for PGA Tour winners.

brother, always of the most excellent golfing etiquette. much respect.

Best channel ever. Everything is practical and makes sense.

These tips and videos have helped me so much. I shot a 90 for the first time ever, beating my previous best of 94! Next up, breaking 90! Any tips for keeping my thoughts quiet before a swing? I find I keep thinking about other things as I go to take my shots

Always coming with knowledge Playa

Great video with plenty top advice👌🏽 might well get me a pair of those insoles too, I must have tried 10-12 different pairs with no results.

Great sock vid mate -oh, and well done on the birdies. Good to see you back.

Just scored 91 and my best round before that was 100.

“Expectations are planned resentments.” Is a piece of advice I was given for my relationship with my now wife. It’s done wonders for our marriage. … now to apply that logic to my golf game. lol.

Very Confidential!!! When are you going to enter some tournaments??

This might your best video to date. Your magnum opus. Waddaplaya

Hey Matty just want to say thanks for all the great info. It took me years to finally practice this stuff because when I pay money to play, I want to play - not practice being safe hitting irons off the tee. I played about 3 rounds solely to practice what you preach and it was the best practice of my life and surprisingly fun. I was just playing out of the fairway hitting shots I like to hit. This stuff works too, I was having driver issues before I started and shot a 95 lol. 36 holes later my scores were 40 and 39.

If you don't warm up the first 4 holes are your driving range. When I warm up I hit a few 7 irons, a couple of hybrids, a 3 wood or two and 2 drives. Much like the first 4 holes on the course may look like.

It had to be the best of the best. I’ve seen guys genuinely in pain watching their carry distance actually be 15-20 yards shorter than what they thought. But after they reconciled it in their brain , they played WAAAAAY better

The more I think about hot to start a golf round, the more I compare it to starting a batting cricket innings. At the start play the shots you are confidential with, low risk, safe. Then once you are seeing the ball better, then move to your more risky shots and then only once you are in really in, do you unleash the Dilscoops, Ramps, Reverse sweep etc. Thanks for the video.
