My dear man I must admit u r the best teacher for I have been playing for more than 35 years and still struggle to make 85 but after watching u on Wednesday I broke 79 and I m in seventh heaven I find yours strategy works perfect for all golfers , I m 70 years old from London England , I thank you very much and lots of kind wishes for u
Jimmy, I started playing golf about 6 months ago and watch other players, listen to their bullshit on what to do or not to do, and struggle with what I call "striking the ball like lighting", it never hits the same spot twice, then I found your RUclips channel. Heading out this morning to play a course that I have never broken 100 on and I will give your recommendation to have the mind set of breaking down the course into 18-5 stroke holes and end up with a 90 on the score card....holy crap man, so simple. You mentioned in other videos to play safe, no need to break out the driver or 3 wood on every hole, play the grass, break up that 300 yards to the green into 2-150 yard shots and the ball will find its way to the green and if it doesn't, it's OK...move on, again so simple, thank you.
I'm in my 60s and have played poorly my entire life. I have only been able to break 100 a handful of times. I have been following your videos and today I shot an 88! Irons off the tees, keeping the ball on the grass, no OBs, and putting the ball in the jacuzzi on the green. Today was the most relaxing round of golf I have ever played!! Thanks, Jimmy!
I picked up golf 3 years ago and finally this year, I have been shooting consistently 85. I'm always learning and appreciate your chill and simple explanation of your thought process.
Just got started back 5-6 months ago. Been over 100 every round. Frustrating. After watching this video several times I shot 94 yesterday. Made some mistakes, but overall I feel like I'm on to something. Thanks so much.
Great! I'm leaving all the other instructional videos behind. Finally, a golfer that we can relate to. This video is being saved to review again when the snow finally leaves. I like the idea of finishing with the same ball I started with.
Hi Jimmy, I have to say since coming across your channel and your philosophy on playing golf I have seen a major improvement in my golf game and have been scoring under my playing handicap. Thank you so much and keep this fabulous easy to play and fun theory going.
Really enjoy your thought process and approach to the game. Those Copper Cobra's are awesome - I'm currently playing the black version with graphite shafts (hey, I'm 79 after all). I think most of us have been watching too much professional golf and think we can swing like the best when we should be following your strategy and scoring lower - I know it's working for me. Thank you so much for your videos!
Great strategy. Great minds think alike. Now, par on a couple of the par 3’s and par on a couple of the par 4’s and you a mid 80’s shooter. Rock ‘n roll all day long…🏌🏿♂️⛳️😎🇺🇸👍
Last summer after 2 years of playing I had my best 9 hole round by keeping the ball in play and no 3 putts while using a couple of irons, a wedge and my putter. It's nice to see you play like this when others think I'm weird. You're the best golfers teacher on YT!
Okay last night I watched this and this morning I played I’ve only been playing for 7 months and still learning a lot I was consistently shooting 60-69 on the front 9 and was not taking what the course would give me and today I played smarter missed in better areas and I’m proud to say I shot a 50 on the front 9 so if I continue to play with better course management I’m sure I can break 100 soon I know I suck but only I can change that lol thank you for the great advice and also the imagining a putt like a toss or soft throw helped me as well I was finding myself going too short or too long !!
Hey Jimmy. I've watched about a dozen videos in the past couple days. Great stuff! Two questions - how far back in the stance in the ball, closer to the back foot? And any plans for a breaking 80 video? Cheers 👍
I just got back into golf at 40 after a 15 year hiatus from the game. I needed to find someone like you and I'm glad i did. I can't wait to try again next season now. Best round of the year: 94 from the red Worst round: 126 from the blues. Final round: 108 from the blues.
Hi Jimmy, I'm a Portuguese golfer, and to play a par 4 with 396 meters (433 yards), do I start by playing drive or 5 iron? I'd like to go down to 85 strokes, thank you
I used this putting tip this past wknd and it helped my score. The "Jacuzzi method heloed. I had three holes where i rushed a tap in to get out the way...dont do it, wait or TAKE YOUR TIME!
ngl dude i took this “make 5 on every hole” approach to chester washington(a course that usually gives me a hard time) yesterday and shot a 92. mind you i shot an atrocious 103 there last weekend. mentality counts just as much if not more than physical ability in this game it’s nuts! thanks bro🤝
Discovered the channel and been binge watching waiting for snow to melt. 5 shots/hole, huh. So local course par 5. Elevated tee over crap. Landing zone slopes 45* right and it's above the elevated tee. Then there's a valley and back on top of a hill about 100 yds out...that shot is over a pond...hmmm...2x200 yd shots then the 3rd over the pond??? Help!
How much is the monthly Dues at Via Verde? I live in area and Via Verde should be a public course it is not up to private standards IMO. Great content! keep it up!
I am the guy who always leaves 5+ shots out there by errant drivers and 3 woods and shoot 95 constantly. I can't wait to try this on Monday and I will let you know how it goes. Your method makes too much sense. Thanks in advance!!!
@@TropicanaEntertainmentplayed this way today. My average over past 15 rounds was 97. Today 49-41 for a 90. I wanted to pull out driver, but I’d rather lower my handicap. Swung smooth and hit 100% of fairways on back 9. Thank you!!!
I noticed you don't seem to play any hybrid clubs. What is your view on them ? I have a 3 and 5 hybrid and am considering ditching my driver and FW in favor of the hybrids since any time I play the driver or FW it turns into an expedition.
I need to hit it like you. Can't use range, hip does not like hitting repeated ball, need to play on my own. At 77 I don't have your distance with a casual stroke. Your course seems benign. Trying your technique I find: ditches, where are your ditches? (one stroke gone), overhanging trees, (one stroke gone), vicious slope on green, one stroke, gone (and that's UK they are worse in Spain (thought you had slick greens in the US?)). Several poor hits, worse trouble than you found. But...but one par 4 hole, start over lake, usually a problem, click and run super, 2nd shot click 8 yds past the hole on back of green, hey never been here in 2 before. Downhill put, lips hole just as yours did on the par 3 but as it is smooth and downhill runs further than original put and I take 2 back. Still my score was not bad (no, not saying - just not bad for the current state of my game). Think you have something, need to play a few more holes on my own. Think It's worthwhile. Thanks.
Found your channel and enjoying the content. Most people would probably be better served taking woods and long irons out of the bag. Consider the guy that tops his driver 50 yards and then automatically pulls out a 3 wood to recover vs the guy that pulls out a 7 iron to recover. I’m willing to bet 9 times out of 10 on the 7 iron recovery. So maybe a slightly different message on your par 5 situation isn’t hitting two pitching wedges but find the longest club you know 9 out of 10 times is going to stay in play - maybe it’s a 6 iron and then that 3rd shot in is shorter. But I think we all get the point you’re demonstrating which is play conservative eliminate the huge mistakes that put snowmen on the card. Thanks
I live in Southern Indiana, currently deep freez weather, really can't wait for some warm weather to put this method in place, as a brand new 55 year old overweight man, I will breK 90 this year, thanks
Valuable info here. However, a lot of people cannot hit the same club 3x in a row consistently. And most of those people struggle at pitching and putting too. But once you get to a certain point, you can absolutely play like this. But it only takes on bad hole or bad luck and the blow up hole comes along.
@@TropicanaEntertainment This definitely works. But like I said, you have to have a certain level of play. There's a series of books breaking 100, 90, 80 etc... they reflect these techniques. Another thing is that the people needing this, do not hit their 6 iron 180. That is for sure. Nice work!
Best way to stay in play is to get fit for irons, driver and putter to maximize consistency, not to maximize distance. This is usually a little higher swing weight and shorter driver shaft. And get midsize or jumbo grips for men. Grips are like the tires on your car. Lastly, visualize your dispersion, which will be a tilted oval shape. When you pull a shot, it will go longer. When you push or slice a shot, it will go shorter. Breaking 90 will be easy peasy.
@@TropicanaEntertainment Like the course and course conditions mean nothing? You are extremely arrogant and disrespectful. Not disrespectful to me, disrespectful to the game of golf. I recommend everyone mute you.
There was this old guy in his 80’s that played with my Uncle in Arizona. We called him “Gimme 5 Dave” He would hit every shot 150 yards … blind as a bat. He’d swing and turn to us, every time, and say “Where’d it go?” … and he always hit it right down the middle, 150 yards. Didn’t matter if it was a par 5 or a par 4 … 150 yards right down the middle. (Always) “You’re in the fairway, Dave” 🙄 He also always lost count of how many strokes he made too, so he always said, “Gimme a 5” 😂 Didn’t matter if he birdied a par 5 or made a par on a par 4, he always said, “Gimme a 5” “Gimme 5 Dave” … priceless
And, of course, if you are trying to break 90, then you are certainly not using a 69 degree wedge! I know this is your go to club around the greens, but it is not for the average player.
You make it look so easy, and it is... if everyone had your skills to hit the ball square and straight. People who can't break 90 will duff it, shank it, hit it off the toe, etc. It's kind of condescending to say how easy it is when we all know golf is a very hard game. To tell everyone how easy it is is just frustrating the beginner.
You’re incorrect sir. Ive taken people with little to no skill and had them hitting the ball well in less that 3 lessons. You just have to teach it correctly.
@TropicanaEntertainment I hope so, Jimmy. My problem is distance. 180 max with driver. Next best club is 6 iron, 130 max. Really hard to break 90 when it sometimes takes 4 strokes to get on the green on a par 4 hole. And I have been playing the forward tees, even before I turned 60. I am 68 now and in good shape. It just irks me that I still can't break 90. I appreciate your encouragement.
@@JeffPassageCPA I can make many suggestions but I do not know your golf game and swing techniques. However, as a short hitter like you, the game of golf is different for us to the average longer hitting golfer. For us it is a third shot game. We must try and put our third shot on the green. The first two shots are positional only.
Jimmy back here on the East Coast in NJ we take the wrapper off the cigar. Nobody needs to know what cigars you smoke. And smoking it down to the wrapper is Bogus. 🌝
Truth is, the average weekend player playing a long course wouldn't break 100 if they counted all shots and holed every putt, too many ppl move the ball for a better ly.
I play the forward tees. I count every stroke. I do give myself a good lie. My home course has no water and few bunkers. My best score there is a 94 (par 70).
@JeffPassageCPA Tropicana has very good advice, tee off with the club you hit straight. Years ago i played with a seasoned golfer who couldn't break 100, i had him tee off with his 8 iron he not only broke 100 he almost broke into the 80s with a 90. He was so happy, his long clubs got him in trouble because of swinging too hard, if it wasn't ob it was snapped 60 yds or topped it 60. Golf is hard because of our mindset, if we use what we are good with and eliminate the bad it becomes manageable.

Youre one of the chosen ones. Breaking 80 is all about short game
Wow! That's awesome to be breaking 90 after 3 years of playing. I am truly envious, but very happy for you.
New to the channel. Love your style of teaching. I always tell my buddies--" we don't get paid for this shit, calm down"
Hahaha. 100%. Enjoy yourself
This is the best lesson I have seen on youtube !!!
Love the mindset towards breaking 90 and the easy swings and just moving the ball forward is great advice. Great video!
Much better than moving the ball back hahaha. Thanks for watching. -Jimmy www.tropicanagolfshop.com
Jimmy; without a doubt, the best coaching lessons on the tube. You make it all sound so easy.

Great video Jimmy you taught me how to just play safe. I'm going to try this out this week to break 90. Thanks God bless you and keep going ⛳🙏😇
Thanks so much for simplifying this for me really helps.
To really prove a point!!! You need a 90+ player doing it and you walk them thru it. 90+ player will TOP, CHUNCK, SLICE AND HOOK
Best coach
Hi Jimmy,
I have to say since coming across your channel and your philosophy on playing golf I have seen a major improvement in my golf game and have been scoring under my playing handicap.
Thank you so much and keep this fabulous easy to play and fun theory going.
Thank you for watching and Im glad youre enjoying it!
These lessons are awesome something ive been. Trying to do but you have helped to clarify on how to do it thank you
Thats great. Thanks for watching.
You are brilliant a real honest golfer and sensible
Thank you for watching
Great course management advice
Thanks for watching
Nice way to think about this. Will try this next round this weekend.
Good luck. Let me know how it goes

Hey thanks for watching. Glad its helping.
I agree...we make it harder than it needs to be. its ego, anxiety, trying to force the shot to hopefully bring you back in the game.
This has been a goal for about 6 months since I started. Gotten close a few times, but this break down makes it feel much more attainable.
5’s all day!!! Take advantage of the par 3’s.
Love it! Please get a shot tracker😊
Working on it
playing tomorrow and I'm going to try this mind set
5’s !!! All day! You got it
Jimmy,
Este é o tipo de gerenciamento de campo que eu realmente preciso. Ultimamente tenho lutado com meu golfe.

Keep playing reds until you can break 90.
Love the cigar! And I really like your glasses what are they?
The only thing I think about now when swinging the golf club is wave at the camera and it's genius it works every time thank you Jimmy

But once you get to a certain point, you can absolutely play like this. But it only takes on bad hole or bad luck and the blow up hole comes along.
Keep it slow and keep it. Smooth it will work for you.

Best way to stay in play is to get fit for irons, driver and putter to maximize consistency, not to maximize distance. This is usually a little higher swing weight and shorter driver shaft. And get midsize or jumbo grips for men. Grips are like the tires on your car. Lastly, visualize your dispersion, which will be a tilted oval shape. When you pull a shot, it will go longer. When you push or slice a shot, it will go shorter. Breaking 90 will be easy peasy.
All that helps but is def not necessary. I can break 90 with a set of goodwill clubs.
@@TropicanaEntertainment Like the course and course conditions mean nothing? You are extremely arrogant and disrespectful. Not disrespectful to me, disrespectful to the game of golf. I recommend everyone mute you.
Why does he play the ball back in his stance? Shouldn't the ball be in the middle or forward of center for iron shots?
I hit mid eighties when my ego stays home and really enjoy it , i can hit a 100 easy when im in competitive mode …
Nice film 👍

Great video. I also like telling what cigar you are smoking. I am trying to expand my cigar horizon.

Didn’t matter if he birdied a par 5 or made a par on a par 4, he always said, “Gimme a 5”
“Gimme 5 Dave”
… priceless
Great story. So true! Thanks for sharing and thanks for watching.
Of course, 450 yards is a very short par 5 hole on most courses. Really enjoying your series, Jimmy.
True, kinda. If you’re having a hard time breaking 90 you should still be at the white tees and 450 is an avg length for a par 5 from those tees
Good point. Don’t you sleep? It is mid-afternoon here in Western Australia, so some ungodly hour where you are!
And, of course, if you are trying to break 90, then you are certainly not using a 69 degree wedge! I know this is your go to club around the greens, but it is not for the average player.
And neither are 200 yard 3 irons
125 + 125 equals
Call my accountant please. hahaha
What handicap is this aimed at ?
Anyone trying to break 90.
You make it look so easy, and it is... if everyone had your skills to hit the ball square and straight.

Jimmy, I have played golf since 1967. Finally broke 100 in 2009. Have yet to break 90. I have been close several times. But mistakes happen.
I hope this helps you navigate your way. You can do it! Itll happen for you in 2024. Let me know when it does
@TropicanaEntertainment I hope so, Jimmy. My problem is distance. 180 max with driver. Next best club is 6 iron, 130 max. Really hard to break 90 when it sometimes takes 4 strokes to get on the green on a par 4 hole. And I have been playing the forward tees, even before I turned 60. I am 68 now and in good shape. It just irks me that I still can't break 90. I appreciate your encouragement.
@@JeffPassageCPA I can make many suggestions but I do not know your golf game and swing techniques. However, as a short hitter like you, the game of golf is different for us to the average longer hitting golfer. For us it is a third shot game. We must try and put our third shot on the green.

How many times are you going to comment this? Why in the world would you care how I smoke MY cigar?
This video is bad news for ball manufacturers.
1 and 4 seems low, i would have guessed 1 of 2 never shoot under 90.
Yup. Google it. Its a crazy stat
125 + 125 is what again?
I just broke 90 (86) I want to quit!
Hahahhaa. Try to break 83!
Great stuff! Hopefully my boys don’t watch this. 😏
Hahahaha. Make that money kid!
Truth is, the average weekend player playing a long course wouldn't break 100 if they counted all shots and holed every putt, too many ppl move the ball for a better ly.
I play the forward tees. I count every stroke. I do give myself a good lie. My home course has no water and few bunkers. My best score there is a 94 (par 70).
@JeffPassageCPA Tropicana has very good advice, tee off with the club you hit straight. Years ago i played with a seasoned golfer who couldn't break 100, i had him tee off with his 8 iron he not only broke 100 he almost broke into the 80s with a 90. He was so happy, his long clubs got him in trouble because of swinging too hard, if it wasn't ob it was snapped 60 yds or topped it 60. Golf is hard because of our mindset, if we use what we are good with and eliminate the bad it becomes manageable.
@@ag358 Great advice. Thanks!
I like your mechanics to the game man, Im new but the way you break it down is cool
Thanks for watching. Hope it helps
