    I will hit LIKE on this video every day and twice on Sunday. You hit the nail on the head with, “You have to play the shot you have.” There are going to be days when you can hit draws all day long. There are going to be days when you hit a fade, a cut, a push, etc. Play the shot you got that day. If you know that 70% of the time you’re going to hit a push fade with your driver - play the high percentage shot.
    Also, spend 80% of your time working on your 100 yards and in game and the rest of the time on everything else.

  • @meyogy2414
    @meyogy2414 4 года назад

    As a young fella. I'd always tee up as high as i could.
    Looking at point of impact and bottom of swing. I moved tee down for irons...
    Best shot ever on a par three. 2 other playas thought it hit the pin. But I'm pretty sure it just checked up on tbe green from the spin❤
    Highly recommend this... and MrShortGame

Nothing changed for my driver or my woods off the tee box pretty much I was doing the same thing as recommended. but my tee shots on the part threes with my irons were way higher and the tip helped a lot missed holding a shot yesterday by 18 in :-)

    Hi Matt, great advice on the tee heights for thousands of weekend golfers out there. I work as a Starter at Pronghorn Resort in Bend Oregon. I see it all on the Tee Box, everything you showed and much more on how golfers incorrectly tee up there golf balls. Another very good video. PS, you seem to be talking and moving a little slow maybe a few more cups of coffee before you start. Joking Ha ha
    If you ever come up to Bend Oregon give me a look up on Facebook and I will give my mobile#. I will hook you up for some rounds up here.

I did not dare to ask why he did that. not knowing the rules I thought he was cheating. Thanks for this vid and rationale for the tee heights.

    I have always teed it up to where the ball is half way over the top of the driver head. When teeing up with a driver!! Then lower depending on the club!! I wrote my comment before you started to speak but I think we are on the same wavelength!! And if it is windy tee it up a tad lower with the driver than usual.

    @Debbiebabe69 3 года назад +2

    I always tee as high as the tee will go. If I can get away with building a mound of earth to get an extra half inch of tee height, I will.
    Yes, sometimes I will hit too low and skull the ball into my helmet, but the extra distance on most drives is worth it.
    What do you mean you dont wear a helmet when driving?
