OMG, I LOVE his "confidentiality" comments. I putt SO MUCH BETTER when I don't think about it, rather just let my experience, my brain calculate the distance. Distance control is WAY more important than aim. Yes, aim is important, but distance control is key. When I just take a short look and putt, I hit way more putts and get way closer to the hole. Golf Sidekick is absolutely correct on brain to body connection.
The other day I was playing from the tips. On the front I was "thinking" a bit too much, shot 5 over, 6 bogies/1 birdie/2 pars. On the back, I turned my brain off - 7 pars, 1 bogie, 1 birdie - 36.
@@timhautzinger6697I take a month off and my game is in the best place. I don’t have 100+ “swing thoughts” going through my head at any given moment. Truly to each their own.
Some of your advice is magic for me and some I have to ignore or customize - for me. Hell, even my yardage changes when the temperature or the golf course changes or my swing feels clean or crappy. In golf you adapt your game a bit or die trying to fit it all into a shoe box.
Played Wednesday. Ball striking crap. Buggered up first 5 holes. Had to adjust, took extra club due to ordinary strikes, punched a few...par'ed 3 on the back 9 . Ended with an even back 9 (for me). In the moment is so important....
Matty I would love to see some content similar to your "low handicap course management" from a year ago. You do a fantastic job translating beginner and various handicap golf tips to people interested in the mental side of golf, and I'd love to see an unfiltered scratch-ish side of things just to observe the difference in how you personally try to play your game! I find a lot of value in the contrasting viewpoints that at the same time are built on the fundamentals. Always enjoy the videos!
Matt, maybe it’s time to put sponsor logos on your merch. lol. Love your work. The ice and snow are just melting here, so I may not get to play for a while, or I’m going to move to Thailand. Cheers!
Matty, I am looking for some advice for golfers that have been playing for only 3-4 months now. I have been watching this channel since I started and taking notes for the game once I get to the levels where I am shooting to break 100, 90, etc. Honestly, I am wondering if I should even be playing courses on the weekend. I have played mostly par 3s and executive but am not sure keeping score at this beginner stage is even worth it. Should I be focusing on going to the range to practice getting good contact and improving my swing rather than playing a course? I took your advice and did a group private lesson with a PGA instructor and that helped me so much. We worked on gripping the club and swinging...that is it. And that small instruction improved my game so much already. I am looking to improve my game but have not reached the level of knowing my club ranges and going for course strategy. I am still working on making good contact, not topping the ball, and minimizing my 3- and sometimes 4-putts. Any advice is welcomed as the game of golf has been great for my coworkers and I to get out on the weekends with a few beers!! Keep up the great content for us.
Play as much as you can, Driving Range sure, but play the course, over and over again. Ive been playing only 6 months and with Mattie's help im down to handicap 38
Love your videos, should be bannable offence to give swing advice on courses. Had a retiree giving me “advice” for 8 holes. “Just enjoy the day”, “we’re so lucky to be here”, “that was actually a good shot”, constantly. On the 9th he fats one out a fairway bunker, goes 20m not the 100m he wanted so launches his hybrid at his bag, knocks it over (not a bad throw), sends all his clubs, balls, sweets (?!) flying. I just walked on saying “I’m going to find my ball”. Sometimes regret not telling him to “just enjoy the day” but didn’t want to stoop to his level. Please keep making excellent content, always a laugh and something memorable to take away.
Great to have you back, playing like you've never been away. Mind you, if you tried to tell me that wearing those shoes will make a difference to my game, l still wouldn't buy them.
12 weeks? Unacceptable. Btw, my gf made me buy a red tiger. Matty ain’t lying: Bushnell killer. Better in every way. Took it to Lookout Mountain . She was ranging every rock and cactus.
yas sir, very few youtubers have 'live' videos for sure rick and horvat has videos created a while ago to put out together soon since they are both 'LIV' golfers
We need to ask ourselves if the channel has been hacked and this is a Matty imposter. I dont see the usual black knee high socks. Now I'm questioning everything you said in the video.
Playa in Queef, I know you don’t like swing advice. I know you hate it. I know we shouldn’t get swing advice online. BUT I need some insight on how you smack perfect high draws with the two iron. C’mon playa share some wisdom. Thanks for the videos Matty.
Some RUclips advice I can take on board and some only applies to single digit handicaps. I like to fact you take all the poo poo out the picture so we play within our abilities. Trying something new is for the range.
@GolfSidekick when you toot at your caddie and have a where did that ball end up look on yuh face, one would suggest it didn't make it through the trees as your ball tracker showed

"I haven't played for 12 weeks" - plays the first two holes as a plus 18 handicapper
I take 2 weeks off and my game goes for shiza. I love the grin as he drains the second birdie.
Can’t break 80 since

You're lucky he didn't throw the bag at you
I thought giving advice was banned! Encouragement is OK though..
love that you pulled the texas wedge. very underrated because its not a sexy golf shot.
Brilliant video. The only thing I didn't understand was the absence of sunscreen. Thanks sir boom Matt.
I don’t own sunscreen playa. This is a serious wellness channel
He's back! Good advice as usual. Thanks Playa.
Whole lot of smiles for a round played after a long hiatus. That's the way to do it, waddalife
Thank you for making this video. Thank you for the wisdom and advice.
Matty “Boom Boom” greetings from the States!, Welcome back!

26:30 wow! beautiful place to play golf. 🤩
Man your first drive was one of the best swings I've seen from you. After 12 weeks of no playing? Wtf
Hahaha that birdie on the second hole =D missed you!!
I wonder how long it was since Matty last played?
Between 11 and 13
Playa
You've still got it Matt!
More thoughts on the mini driver!
For the ELGSES! 😂 HILARIOUS
12 weeks? Unacceptable. Btw, my gf made me buy a red tiger. Matty ain’t lying: Bushnell killer. Better in every way. Took it to Lookout Mountain . She was ranging every rock and cactus.
I have been able to break 90 consistently after changing my mind and strategy 👍
the way you explained using the 9 instead of the sand wedge was $$$$. I play on dry tight courses and I have that happen a lot with my wedge.
On Hole 8 you hit a 2 iron 300 yards off the tee??
No
How long have you not played? I think I missed that.
Hey Matty boom boom any suggestions for an app on Android with similar capabilities to shot pattern with dispersion and round planning etc? Thanks
Are those greens synthetic or just impeccably maintained?
Amazing maintenance. Best greens in thailand
Love the Sandals. Not sure they would work for me as I’m a dew sweeper
Absolutely Money. I like that energy ⚡
Love the hole 3 ELGSES reference🤣
What shaft stiffness are you using with the Takomo 101s?
I couldn't stop laughing with your putt for ELGSES! That and your Trump dance had me rolling! Thanks Matty!!!
Plays like baus after 12 weeks, and dances like The baus.
Wadda beauty
You rock Matty
Welcome back
8th hole dance was YUGE!
I got my red tiger range finder and it was awesome had it for two weeks and I left it stuck on the side of the cart and it was stolen 😢
welcome back, playa.
Its easy to filter out the bad advice. All you need to do is one simple thing, Watch the Baus here . Matt is the only one you need to take advice from
What's the benefit of the minidriver over a 3 wood?
Deeper face
So mini driver better off tee..
Tiger told me to stop watching golf RUclips videos and just hit balls. Cool season? It's always hot man.

I haven't played in 84 weeks! Have I mentioned that?
Taking 12 weeks off you’re more likely to forget all of your bad habits and play great golf!😆
Long live the birdie music!!
every other video Matt is like so i havnt played in 6 years
Haven't played in 12 weeks? Dang, did you record a bunch of videos before the break to be able to keep putting out videos?
Always. Every round a day. Editing. And our one out every 3 days. Every RUclipsr has a lot of videos edited and ready to go.

for sure rick and horvat has videos created a while ago to put out together soon since they are both 'LIV' golfers
Call off the search party, Matt Boomsy-Baby has been located….looks like he may have been on a shoe shopping spree.
Haven't played in 12 weeks and 2 birds right off the bat. Is that beginners luck? If so bottle it and I'll buy some.
