I agree with the sentiment on one shot shape, but a stock shot combined with a low bunt fairway finder is handy to have.

Most middle aged rookies are losing strokes off the tee with OB and penalties.

I love that Scott gives us permission to full send 99.99% of the time. 😂 A man of the people backed up by data! #notallheroswearcapes.

Started doing this with par 5's where instead of pulling out the 3 wood everytime, I would pick a comfortable yardage like115 which is my gap wedge, and aim for that eventhough it meant only hitting an 8 iron on my 2nd shot. Made a big difference on my score because a, my worse range is 40-90 yard range and b, my short iron is a lot more consistent than my 3 wood. I'd rather be putting for birdie 80% of the time than putting for eagle 10% of the time with the occasional water ball or bad lie chip.

Have recently discovered your channel and I am enjoying it very much. Up here in Ontario Canada the off season is long and any indoor tips are much appreciated. I have access to a sim at least weekly and I am determined to improve for next year. Currently I am a 9 index aiming to get to at least 7 next season, I have uploaded the Tour Tempo App and ordered a Rypstick and Radar and I'm excited to see the results. Thanks again for the great content. Cheers, Paul

Why do you say the Rypstick is the best speed trainer? And better than The Stack?

Trying to connect with Leo but his website seems to be dysfunctional. Any help or link you can provide to get a copy of his E-Book would be appreciated. Great interview!!

Slow backswing can work great. Bombing long shots is not always the best way to play golf.

Lemme repeat back what you said to make sure I understand correctly: “buy a new driver.” Yes?

Breaking 80 is easy: 1. Hit your driver straight, 250 yds minimum, never get in trouble spots. 2. Hit your approach shots into the green, stay out of trouble. Avoid bunkers. 3. If you really have to pitch/chip, get the ball close - within 6 feet or so. 4. Learn to lag putt (when necessary) and to sink putts reliably (90+%) within 4 feet. 5. Never ever ever miss a short putt. Told you it was easy, send cheques to the usual address THX! XX

This is terrible advice. I'm guessing these two are both fairly decent wedge players. Laying up is completely dependent on how confident you are from a certain distance. My wedges are terrible and have little confidence. I'd rather have 130 yds than 80 and less. If I lay up between 90 & 150 I'm confident I can get it fairly close on my approach shot. So I aim for 115 yards, which gives me a large margin of error in case I hit it to long or short of my target yardage. Using his example of 80, gives you no margin to work with. Play to your strengths. Example: Zach Johnson won the 2007 Masters and laid up on every par 5 that week.

I live in Florida…there IS no off season lol

Question, I bought the app and have tinkered with it. How do you choose what tempo is best? Is it the faster you swing, the faster the tempo? My driver swing is about 107mph. I feel like I can do the 18/6 but not sure if that's best for my swing

I think the 5 things are all great but its not my 5. It depends were your strengths and weaknesses are. Practicing chipping for me is most important. Short game is where it’s at, for practice. It saves a lot of strakes and helps with alignment and impact. Something no one talks about is using shorter clubs. Pro’s dont talk about this because club companies are always selling club with more distance, i.e longer clubs.

I wish I watched this before my round yesterday! My tempo was off and I kept trying to slow it down. Maybe the opposite would have been better.

That app is awesome. If I’m having an off practice day or my mind is making think too much, that app is my go to and it brings me back to the basics. Like a meditation.

I dont think about laying it up as getting to a preferrred yardage, as much as hitting up to a safe landing area that avoids hazards, bad lies, or awkward approach angles, even if that means not hitting the farthest distance up to the pin.

He reminds me of Jim Harbaugh

When I'm 260 out, I'm hitting 7 iron and then my 54 degree every time. Better than spraying or topping a 3 wood from that distance. I'm a 4.1 according to Ghin.

Is there a link to the right grip trainer? I have xl gloves and most the them say they are small I want to make sure I get the right one. Also I do not intertwine my fingers can I still use it?

He did not tackle the second comment that ‘for the amateur , slower and softer is better ‘

Everyone is different - nothing is written in stone -you need find what works for you - for me , the slower the better - scary slow is a drill I work at

This off season I’m gonna try resting! It’s going to be hard but I’m going to shoot for 6 weeks and then maybe a trip to a warm destination

Does tour tempo work well with irons too?

I agree. They are just regular people. Excellent content 🙌🏼

I can hit a 7 wood almost as far as a 3 wood, but its always straight, drivers are not meant to be accurate

golf clubs and mirrors are asking for 7 times bad luck every time you strike the mirror on mishits.

Wished you explained the temporary metric.

It’s funny how a 43 inch driver is called a mini driver and that’s what was used for decades before they started making them 45

The Modern 2 wood...

That stat shows golfers dont undestand statistics. A 5 handicapper is voluntarily hitting 3 wood on a hole that requires a more precise shot than driver. The result is self fulfilling... of course they dont hit those fairways significantly more than the holes they can bomb driver.

Thanks to my best friend giving me Zen, golf, Dr. Joesph Parent helped me to get to a single digit for the first time in a long time. That was 10+ years ago. I need to re-read this book and I will find your full interview. LOVE that you had him on as a guest. 🙏🏽

Best app

Great tips!

You aren’t factoring how much farther into the woods my driver goes

Yes statistics in general will agree with you here, but that’s for you average 5 handicap. That’s what like 5 percent of the golfing world? The other 95 percent don’t hit the ball consistently enough to say that driver will help them drop scores. If anything, I think them playing 3 wood, something shorter, with more loft, and easier to hit overall, will result in the ball staying in play, having a slight boost in fairways, and still getting far enough to score better than they would loosing multiple balls around.

What is the body of the chart @3:10 trying to show? I can’t even venture a guess.

Move up to shorter tees and you will find it can be just as hard because you hit closer to greens and get odd yardages with wedges that may be harder to hit than yardages further out.

Getting in play is much easier with 3 wood. I stand and watch guys look for their ball from hitting driver into the rough and woods while i’m in the fairway.

This is BS

I think I missed it, what is the app called? Thank you!

It’s like you made this video specifically for me. I am currently at an 8.2 for my handicap and on the days I shot 80+, I allow bad shots to impact me and my attitude. On the days I break 80, I take it one shot at a time and keep moving forward. Second thing, with my driver, I am either hitting 3 fairways a round or 8-9. Because I believe the stigma that I shouldn’t be launching range balls with my driver, I will rarely practice with it. I am going to change that. Hitting the subscribe button now. Thank you.

Hit my 3w, adjusted from 14 to 17 deg depending on course and conditions. Hit the club well and one of my favourite clubs, so thanks but will be stating in bag for a while yet.

Sure if you have a great game around tough green complexes. I definitely shoot lower scores sticking wedges than cleaning up after a hot 5-wood. Play your game.
