Usually once I come off the tee well I score well. But at least I am working on my game and focusing on what I do not do well, so I can be more consistant.

    The best thing you can do to drive these principles home is to go find the day all the old guys play at your course (100% there is a day at every course on this earth), and join as a single. Watch as you get beat by 20 shots by guys who hit it 190 off the tee but have 9 or 10 up and downs a round.

      Tempo is the biggest downfall to most amateurs in my opinion. Everyone is trying to crush the ball when really they just need to be swinging at 70-80% power and letting the club do the work. I find when I feel like I’m swinging my driver 80% it goes 270 and when I swing 100% it maybe goes 280 but I miss the center a lot more. It’s not worth a few extra yards.

    Dear PIC (Playa in Chief),
    I've been struggling with leaving pitch marks on the greens. I tend to aim straight for the cup, but will occasionally mis-hit & leave pitch marks 4-5' away from the hole. The Way of The Playa has confused me because now I have to leave my pitch-marks in Texas & don't want to disrespect the greenskeeper like that.
    Thanks again for another banger of a video. Keep on crushing boyfriend.

    For god’s sake, man, stop using “confidential” when you mean “confident”, and “confidentiality” when you just mean “confidence”. “Confidential” means “private”, it does not mean that you have belief in yourself. Has no one ever explained that to you? You have good videos, but you use these words incorrectly all the time.

    I have a knee injury and cannot swing full. Played last week on a new and challenging course where I only hit driver 2x (one in a hazard) and basically used these principles more than ever. Two par 5s I hit the ball to 100 yards when I was only 230-ish out (normally would hit hybrid at the green) and made par. 79 with 2 penalty strokes… probably one of the least stressful rounds of my life.

    9 index here (the naturally long hitter that struggles with control off the tee) Can confirm - #8 might be the most important, and #10 is right up there. Good ball-striking is a false sense of security. I know how to intentionally fade or draw a ball. Can I do it on command, how I want? Not a chance, yet. The biggest struggle I have with improving is reminding myself to play within my abilities.

    Went to play on a quite horrible course in Sattahip,Chonburi yesterday. I’ve played on this course since I was 12 yrs old(turning 25 this year). It was my first time for me to play conservative style after watching your video. Only hitting 6 Iron off the tee as it is my confidential club and I can only tell you this but usually I would shoot 95-100 and lost around 10+ balls every time I go there despite all the experience I have with the course. But yesterday was different due to fact that I only play to keep it safe and have it in play for the next shot. Shot 89 and lost 4 balls. I still absolutely hate that course but it’s the closest one and cheapest to my house.
