PGA Tour Coach Said I WAS DOING IT ALL WRONG!
Спорт
This #tourtrucktuesday I head to Phoenix for a Golf Lesson with the highly regarded Martin Chuck.
Martin is based at The Raven Golf Club & is the founder of Tour Striker the creators of the famous Smart Ball:
Check out one of my favorite training devices The SMART BALL: www.tourstriker.com/products/...
Entering into this lesson I deliberately didn't want to divulge too much about my game in order to obtain a true demonstration as to how a world leading coach would conduct a lesson and manage an individual. The outcome is not what I expected!!
Martin, like all greats coaches, truly understands the relationship between teaching and coaching. He also recognizes the pressures on us all when it comes to time management and how we should set our expectation levels based on the commitment we make to competing.
As you've requested this is a longer form video but from start to finish their are nuggets (multiple onions) of information that will help us all improve. Grab a note pad or your iPhone and capture 5 points that are relevant to you and I guarantee you will improve from the next 40 minutes of KZread viewing.
Yes the matches are fun and the LIVE fittings are crucial when it comes to equipment but with the season around the corner now is a good line to check in on your technique and prepare as best as you can to play the game.
Hit that #subscribe button and be sure to check out my other uploads, this one was personal to me as I've always wanted to visit Martin and I can't thank him enough for his time and hospitality.
AND REMEMBER GOLF IS A TARGET GAME!

Martin, you mention 17 out of 20 people that you see have an incorrect grip. Any chance Tour Striker will be releasing some type of a grip trainer?

Was thinking the same exact thing. Almost catatonic in speech and approach.
my biggest takeaway was him essentially saying "your swing is fantastic, its all mental now"
"Thiink about what a good coach does. They boost people up." Pure gold!
Martin is almost like a Golf Therapist.....insane how good he is, and how calm his demeanor is. Great video Trottie, glad you went to see him.
This is one of the best golf videos ive seen in a long time. The depth of knowledge about the game is incredible. Every player could benefit from watching the whole vid! Well done Trottie
Man the coolest thing about Martin Chuck he treated me with the same attention as he gave Trottie. I randomly sent him a video not for coaching to show the progress, He broke it down and gave me awesome advice. FOR FREE!!!!! If you get a chance to work with Martin and his team you won't regret it.
Hitting flighted shots with the ball forward is a game changer. These high level coaches are so good. Thank you for filming
“Find your happy place in space” my favorite quote. Thanks coach!!! ⛳️
Remember this lesson trot, remember the checklist should be done by the time you stand over the ball. That was the biggest takeaway for me. Seriously. That’s incredibly good advice right there.
Best content I’ve seen from you Trottie. THIS is how to talk to these coaches/instructors. Learn so much more from this than even watching a serious lesson.

I sure as hell hope it's not how people speak to their coaches
I grew up playing junior golf with Marty in Ontario in the 80s -- so proud to see how well he's done in the game and in his teaching -- great stuff Trottie!
He fixed ya in the first few minutes. "I'm seeing a lil squatty". Lol. Stand up, you can't cross the line, your hands can't get outside. Love it. The book of knowledge was opened once more on this channel.
One of the best 'lesson videos' I've seen in years. Martin feels so old school in the way he approaches teaching, it's great to know these guys still exist. The use of technology has overtaken the dig it out of the dirt and scoring first mentality. I may be making a trip out to AZ to see Martin.
For me, this the best lesson for a scratch golfer or anyone willing to listen carefully and stop, humble yourself listening to people. Every needs a performance coach!
The last 12 minutes of this video was some of the most insightful content that I have seen
Best Live Golf Lesson I have ever seen! Martin Chuck knowledge and calm demeanor is the greatest.
Chris, this is poss the best lesson you will have ever had and I have seen on KZread. Today, most guys get too hung up on technical aspects of golf when it is a fluid game which is full of mistakes. Managing these things in our head is the key. Just go and play but manage expectations and we can all be in our happy places. Good man, keep up the good work.
Love your genuine honesty and vulnerability!! Never change!!
Phenomenal stuff. Rarely watch coaching videos in their entirety. Great content.

We don't mess about here @trottiegolf , glad you approve
Honestly a long video, but it's what makes golf, golf.... So much of the game is that space between our ears. Great nuggets about simple mental prep and getting your head out of the game (when in reality your just focusing more on the task at hand). Love the reference to Robin WIlliams skit on Golf (The Best!). Thank you Trottie for sharing. Go play to win!
That nugget about not setting the club on the ground was an eye-opener for me. Thanks Chuck and of course Trottie!!!
I needed that lesson 😊 My stress level just dropped in half over ball.
Been following Martin Chuck for years....his greatest strength is his communication skills n calmness n simplifying things...what a coach! Great to see a high level player like you taking lessons....golf is about humility.....like in life.
It was hilarious to witness coach Chuck try and tell Trottie that he should stop fussing over his swing. There was some great advice there (even if Trottie wouldn't/couldn't be told) - no matter what our level, we are fortunate to be able to go out and play golf, so try and enjoy it; after all, there are more important things to stress over than a double on nine, as well as more important things to celebrate than the bounce-back birdie on ten ;)
By far the most educational golf video I've watched in a very long time.
The interaction between you both is Gold. So many nuggets of info. 40:08 nailed it for me. I struggle with this also Trottie. As amateur golfers, I think our expectations of ourselves are too high. So the lesson is to have fun because everyone makes doubles here or there. Talk about a moment of reality. Good stuff.
Very personable, calm, knowledgeable & clear in getting his message across. Great watch.
Really like the technical talk. It's different then any coaching type video I've seen
Martin is like - and I mean this in the best way possible - if a nice relaxing Indica edible were a person. I'd like him to come read me stories to fall asleep to before bed. Always appreciate Martin's technical and performance teachings on golf. Thanks for another interesting video Trottie!

🤣 I'm so glad Trottie admitted that he will regurgitate information too quickly.. I've never related to a statement more.. when you nerd out over shit you love, it happens haha - Awesome video as always.
Best golf coaching video I've watched on KZread!
Trottie was focused on solving the equation of "why he misses left" because he was looking to solve for perfection. It is THE mental issue golfers have because this isn't about perfection. It's about whether you can game what you brought ( barring any serious issues). Be calm, be decisive, and be target-oriented.
Think box , play box. Martin is a great teacher. I love his approach to coaching.
i feel like a bandit that i got to watch this great chat for free here !!!! love it! 🤘
Your best tour truck tuesday ever.
Fascinating , a great lesson in reality and not dwelling on negatives .
Definitely one of the best videos I've seen in a long time, I appreciated Trottie exposing his vulnerabilities and the simple (yet amazing) advice given by Martin. Definitely saved in the favorite folder.
Best Trottie Golf vid to date, will take a lot (LOT) of this and put to use in my own practice and play. Don't let perfection get in the way of a good swing, pre-shot routine and "I get to go hit it again".
This is the best golf video I've seen in a really long time.
The irony for me is his coaching is like your club fitting. You don’t weigh your guys down with non-critical minutiae. Good players needing or wanting to see a different flight window, you make a tweak here, maybe a different shaft and you stop talking and call it a day. Good is Good, don’t screw it up and they trust you. Nice one here, thanks.

Martin prolly dropped a dozen T shirt designs during the time I was with him.
Thanks Trottie! Fantastic content! I wish this type of stuff was talked about more with golf! Everybody wants a magical shortcut to playing golf like a professional without putting in the hard work on ALL fronts (including the mental aspect). This all just reinforces how important it is to practice your skills, develop a pre-shot routine, have a strong mental game/attitude and how positive you carry on with your day/round/whatever even after hitting shots that didn't go where you intended.
Your strikes just sound better after a few swings with his advice. That crisp tour sound!!
Martin Chuck is an awesome coach! What a great video. Thanks Trottie.
Great lesson in simplification trottie
This is a great video, I know the way you feel about trying to be perfect all the time, trying to teach myself to let it go and just play this mad game too mate, best video I’ve seen in a long time
What an awesome video. So cool to geek out on Golf the knowledge you have is freaking awesome. What a great watch. Trottie ….swing the club head play golf ..your swing is awesome
Have to say, of all the KZreadrs out there, that is by far the most insightful and common sense advice I’ve heard to date, well done Martin 👏
Amazing vlog Trottie Totally changed my view on Martin (a view from the golf ads might i say ) i will take so much from this ,and not a swing change mentioned but, Play Golf not Play Swing .Thanks
Starting my 3rd year and I can always tell who has had to many lessons. They often tell me how much better I can be if I did the same. I always ask them to explain their swing in the least amount of words.
Man that guy is legit! Great video Trottie
what a great session and vlog - congrats and it will help a lot😊
most informative golf vid ive ever watched xo
one of the best videos i've seen. i think there's needs to be more about the mental side of the game

Biggest lightbulb moment for me watching your videos the last couple months is I needed a grip change. This season it’s the thing I’m trying to keep consistent. Small steps in going from 13 to single digits. Keep up the great work!
ABSOLUTE great lesson Trottie! Enjoyed every minute and very educational! The Tap Tap Tap, never grounded reminded me of Nicklaus.

I'm with you, Trottie! My swing is normally good, functional, and receives compliments.... but the mental side of the game is the constant challenge. Thanks for sharing this extended lesson! Chuck just gets it.
What a great video. Great way of thinking while golfing. Thanks
Honestly, loved how he transitioned into coaching mode after touching on the mechanics. This was a phenomenal video
Trottie you’re the man for sharing this. Such great content as always and I’m going to have to watch this over and over to pick up on the details. Much love!!!!
gem of a video!
What an incredible video !
Best video so far Trottie. I always look forward to your videos. Thanks for sharing this lesson and the insight.
Great content! Love watching lessons from top coaches.
This is amazing content! So much wisdom in here.
This was incredible. Because of your deep knowledge you ask all the right questions. Would love to see more of these with other top coaches.
Great, Great video!! Thank you for bringing this to us.
Such brilliant content Mr.T so much of this is relatable, so much under the radar positive comments from Martin
Trottie, This was by far the best 43:08 minutes I have ever spent watching golf instruction. It was awesome to hear how players of your caliber think and process this game. Please keep them coming.
Such a good video...Absolutely packed with great little nuggets. Martin Chuck is a legend.
This is easily one of the best video advice any golfer at any level can take away from. The fixation on the perfect swing has taken over way too much and even I'm guilty of it. So much that it's ruined my outcome and losing the simple part of the game which is just to play. I need to take this and dial it back to where I started and just focus more on outcome and not so much on the technical aspect. Thanks Trottie for this!!🙏🏾🙏🏾 special thanks to the coach 🔥🙌🏾
Incredible start to finish 🏌️♂️
This is the golf lesson I needed to hear, thanks trottie!
As a bad golfer who doesn't practice or play much I should be very happy with a good shot, happy with an ok shot, and absolutely accept and expect bad shots and flubs. This year when on the course I want to play golf, not play golf swing.

Trottie that was so relevant to me. Have lost that feeling of being out there for fun. So frustrated with my game and no real clue what to do. Gave me a clue to get out of this rut. Thank you.😅
Love this… so many great nuggets of simple instruction! As you said Trottie way too much out there. Thanks for putting this together
Great to watch Trottie lots of good nuggets
Perfection is the enemy of good! I like how Martin was trying to get this message across to Trottie who has a great swing but by the looks tends to over analyse to much, but understandable when you look how technical he has to be with club fitting but when it comes to the swing maybe a little more feel and less over thinking!! Martin's philosophy is basically step into the shot with full confidence and intent and accept the outcome good bad or indifferent and move on to the next shot, repeat, such a great way to approach the game. Great coach and teacher! Good video Trottie thanks for sharing.
I relate so much to this. Awesome stuff 👍
great video and conversation. Martin seems to be doing it right. Great teacher and listener. Loved it.
Thanks for sharing this trotty. Great lesson
this was brilliant.. it's so easy to get lost in swing thoughts and micro movements that sometimes it can be the little mental adjustments that can take you to next level
So many golfers chase aesthetics rather than playing the game to score. You've got to have a game you can trust and be able to take to the course.
Awesome stuff Trottie!!
This is why I started to follow you, totally honesty… awesome video sir!!!
