@@braddalkegolf Personally I think you have the best swing in Good Good (Kwon too). Hitting the nipper is a favourite shot of mine and i have been a bit rusty with it so this is a good refresher for it. The feel I have is that i release it like a bunker or a flop shot. Works 80% of the time haha.
I REALLY appreciate you guys putting this channel together and teaching different aspects of the swing and different shots. Brad is an excellent teacher and how he presents the i formation is fantastic! Learning new shots and how to practice is a big key to getting better. I look forward to seeing more here. Thanks guys!!
FINALLY!! An instructional video that walked me through the shot piece by piece with common, easy to understand language and not the technical jargon. EXCELLENT LESSON!!
I am loving what you, Brad, are doing with this channel. I do like your style of instruction as it it helping me even at the advanced age of 70. I am about a 9 handicapper but always look for ways to continue to improve my short game since I have lost a lot of distance. Thanks!
You have been a great addition to the team Brad. I consider myself 'pretty good' around the green, but you are next, next level! Great advice especially when you say the most important part is to practice a lot. You make it look easy, but that's a tough shot! (Now I have to start opening that face)!
This is awesome. I've always had good hands around the green and use this open club face but get speed through the zone and partially close it at impact technique for high shots with the ball off my front foot. Can't wait to go get this for the nipper!
Love the feel style teaching! Much easier to relate to than some of these very technical analytical teaching videos out there. Well done Brad! I am a high hcp that has somehow always had the nipper down and a good short game but my driving/woods are terrible so I look forward to that video!
Hey Brad! Just wanted to say thank you for the video. High HC occasional player transferred over to getting serious and putting in work. 33 so late to the game, but hoping to make huge changes in coming years. Somehow your short game videos just click with me. Using your beginner to intermediate nippers, and getting pretty consistent and definitely have the feel down. Won’t implement into my actual game for at least another year of getting them down but will be practicing every chipping practice. Just wanted to say appreciate your videos because they click well with me, and now I actually have a short game on consistent level.
I love how you teach. Just how you are able to articulate makes it easier to follow! How you're able to not get caught up in that youtube mumbo jumbo! 😂
SOB! I watched the beginner and intermediate parts of this video and off to the practice range I went. Adding swing speed to my wedge shots and now the ball just flies off the club face with lots of spin. The club stopping chunks into the ground are now replaced with divots. Now the practice will be how far back to take the club for the distance needed. Thanks Brad, your video is a game changer. R
Great vid. In the advanced section you talk about the release & this is where we also see body rotation. Perhaps you could talk about that as this is key to a beginner who tends just to use arms back & through mostly leading to poor strikes.
Love using this thanks Brad not quite back spinning it like you but stopping it dead!! Have started using this technique in bunkers too and it is working a treat with the wet sand in England atm
You're super switched on to your feels and that makes you a great teacher. Cheers Brad been waiting for this one, can't wait to get up the practice green
Thanks for these tips! Could you make a video on how to compress the ball and take divots with full shots ? I’d also love to see a video on full wedge shots as well :)
You’re awesome at those shots. Great lesson. One thing I would add that helps me is to open the club face before gripping the club. It keeps me from shutting the face down too much at impact IMO
Just watched you tube championship and wished you Garret, Luke would have been invited, think it would have been a little different, love the knowledge you have about the swing Brad.
Love the content and the tips. Any way to make a video about hitting a driver? I’m barely getting into golf and Good Good is what makes me even more excited to play. My driver keeps on slicing
Brad, would love to see some tips when the ball is sitting down in the bermuda grass around the green and you need to hit a pitch shot. Also, thick bermuda rough hitting approach shots.
Thanks for this, Brad, very interesting... I'm definitely at the beginner level... and I'm wondering why, when the clubface is that far open, why the ball doesn't squirt out to the right? Can you elaborate on where your feet are relative to the target, etc.? - Also, what about trajectory? Thanks again, keep up the good work!
As someone who loves hitting the nipper I can't tell you how much you have to practice practice practice before you're comfortable doing this on the course. But like he said, to have this shot in your bag is absolutely invaluable
The one thing I'm still struggling with is putting distance on my clubs, I'm a 10 handicapper and can only hit a Pw - 100 yards, 9 irons like 120 and so on, how can I fix this
That's my biggest mess up in chipping, the decel. I've gotten way better, but sometimes that little voice screams in my head, "Slow down!" near impact. Duff dang near every time. Bring back the labs jingle! Thanks, Brad!
Great pointers love the video. Just a question perhaps for another video. What would the best technique be to utilize the bounce of your wedge to get better contact?
I have a few things i do differently especially that finish, but maybe that's just the difference between being a righty and a lefty playing right handed. That speed all comes from the left hand for me and when I'm chipping well i feel that entire club face in my left hand and exactly where it is. Always wondered how rightys feel it. It seems like a completely different game from 100 yards in especially. Your dominant hand is placed where it cant manipulate the face as easily its just pushing and pulling when youre close to the ball and it never points palm or back directly at the target like the left hand does.
One thing is to also take a practice swing. Likely will have to clean the grass off. It gives you a feel. It's a feel shot. Keep feet close and don't pull your arms back too far.
Also have a question. I’m intermediate and the only check/spinner I can hit is actually an unopened face, ball back instance, good contact. Comes out low (even with a 60) and skids a couple of quick times and stops
What’s the difference between the nipper and the flop? They both are shots that need to stop quickly, but I guess the difference is height? If so then when would you choose one over the other? It seems like you would want whichever one would stop the quickest once it hits the green, since height doesn’t really matter.
not sure if I missed it in my first watch through, but was there any mention of what bounce you are using for shots like this off tighter lies? Guessing it is fairly low but just not sure how low for these specific types of shots
Thanks Brad... But how do you have the face so open and not have the ball pop up, but rather shoot forward 3 feet high and spin fast so it checks up hard?
Gotta say It’s been really refreshing seeing Brad in the good good lab. Killin it
I appreciate that!

As someone who’s finally getting into playing after watching for a couple years, all these labs videos couldn’t be coming out at a better time haha!
I really appreciate the breakdown for the different skill levels. That’s pretty cool 😎

I’m trying to break 100 and just shot a 103 last Tuesday and these videos are REALLY helping me lower my scores

It’s such a treat that Brad would take the time to share knowledge. Dude is such a high caliber golfer
I tried it today after watching. I chipped in twice.
Love hearing that!

Brad in da laaaab! What a great addition to the GG squad
I love how you teach. Just how you are able to articulate makes it easier to follow! How you're able to not get caught up in that youtube mumbo jumbo! 😂
The shorter backswing has been an absolute game changer for me…thanks Brad!
Dalke has a cool teacher vibe, the kind who won’t give homework on weekends 😁. Ba da ba ba bah!! 🤣
Brad, you are getting better at this every time. Really enjoying labs now that you are owning it. Keep up the good work!

Im a beginner but I watched the intermediate section, and I feel like not decelerating on the downswing was a good tip for me even. Thank you
Thanks Brad. I have been playing golf for years with no lessons. I struggle around the green with this big time. This should help if I practice it.
Great vid. In the advanced section you talk about the release & this is where we also see body rotation. Perhaps you could talk about that as this is key to a beginner who tends just to use arms back & through mostly leading to poor strikes.
I had no idea this channel existed! you guys should promote it more.
Love these video Brad

THIS IS REVOLUTIONARY!!! Ta ta TSH!! Honestly amazing lesson Brad you are the man thank you so much!!!
Needed this vid. Love covering basics. If my setup is wrong I screw up wedges 30% of the time
Brilliant format. Top explainer. Grwat job.
The video ive been waiting for
Great info Brad! One problem I have had in the past with this shot is the hosel hitting the ball since it is leading with he face so open. Thanks!
Awesome video. You’re a true inspiration Brad. Thanks!!!!
Hey Brad! Thanks for putting this up!
Thank you Brad, bubbies still my favorite
Never thought to weaken my grip on my chips. Ima test it out sounds like I could help on some of my miss hits. 🐐
Time to start hitting some nippy jizzlers! Great video, Brad!
Wonderful video thankyou! Is there a possibility of doing the same style of video in the bunkers?
Best wishes Mick
Just watched you tube championship and wished you Garret, Luke would have been invited, think it would have been a little different, love the knowledge you have about the swing Brad.
cheers brad i went to the course today and when u said u won’t spin it 5 feel, i used a slope and spun it back 5 feet 😂
Love the content and the tips. Any way to make a video about hitting a driver? I’m barely getting into golf and Good Good is what makes me even more excited to play. My driver keeps on slicing
There will be driving videos!!
Brad, would love to see some tips when the ball is sitting down in the bermuda grass around the green and you need to hit a pitch shot. Also, thick bermuda rough hitting approach shots.
Love these types of videos and brad is killing it, keep it up
I’d like to see a tips and best practices for playing a round rental clubs. Or adjustments to be mindful of when playing clubs that aren’t yours
Excellent, Brad. Thanks
Great info and instruction. How important is receptive greens, soft ball and clean groves?
Spinning wedges is your *Brad* and butter 🔥
😂
Great instruction Brad
can you make a version of this video for applying spin to full swing wedge shots?
Thanks for this, Brad, very interesting... I'm definitely at the beginner level... and I'm wondering why, when the clubface is that far open, why the ball doesn't squirt out to the right? Can you elaborate on where your feet are relative to the target, etc.? - Also, what about trajectory? Thanks again, keep up the good work!
Hell ya Brad! These are awesome videos. I wish you great success with this new channel.
Brad is great teacher💪🙏
Thank you!
Bro I love these videos. Brad I need you to a flop shot vid and I need help with my driver. I can't stop slicing it !!!
Great video Brad.
This is good stuff. Thanks for sharing.
I'd love to see a video on wedge shots
Thanks Brad - can we have a basic chipping video, and how to adjust for uphill/downhill/above/below lie?
As someone who loves hitting the nipper I can't tell you how much you have to practice practice practice before you're comfortable doing this on the course. But like he said, to have this shot in your bag is absolutely invaluable
Great video - thanks for sharing!
Grant fixed GG in two months. The dude is legitimate.
Great instructional video Brad - loved it 👍
Well done. Looking forward to more instruction. How about some off season, winter drills.
I have a wicked wide stance when I hit my flop shots but regular chips for sure seem more consistent with a narrow stance
These are dope. Nice work
The one thing I'm still struggling with is putting distance on my clubs, I'm a 10 handicapper and can only hit a Pw - 100 yards, 9 irons like 120 and so on, how can I fix this
Can you go over how to hit long irons and driver?
I like to keep the toe down and swing out. 3’ off the ground and stopping
Soaking up these Lab videos brother, thanks mate
Can we get a video on uneven lies! Ball above, below, uphill and downhill lies. I struggle with that like no other.
I fricking love this guy
That's my biggest mess up in chipping, the decel. I've gotten way better, but sometimes that little voice screams in my head, "Slow down!" near impact. Duff dang near every time. Bring back the labs jingle! Thanks, Brad!
Great pointers love the video. Just a question perhaps for another video. What would the best technique be to utilize the bounce of your wedge to get better contact?
Great…just in time for Winter in CT.😢
Excellent instruction but I have one question. Where do you line up in relation to the target, you seem to be square and swinging down your foot line.
Great video Brad. I like the different segments for different skill levels.Can you do one for flighted wedge shots?
Great stuff - bunkers next?
Can you pleas do a pitching video. From 30-80 yards please !!!!
My arrogant 20HC ass..."go straight to expert level bro."
😂
You should do a video on the wild escape shots you do. Maybe do find horrible lies in the trees and stuff and explain your process through the shot.
Haha nice to see my black GMC behind you right in my normal spot in the lot 😂
great video hopefully i can get under my hands.🤞🏻 love your energy man.
Could yall make a video on how to have a smooth transition in your swing?
More of Brad, homie is awesome
I have a few things i do differently especially that finish, but maybe that's just the difference between being a righty and a lefty playing right handed. That speed all comes from the left hand for me and when I'm chipping well i feel that entire club face in my left hand and exactly where it is. Always wondered how rightys feel it.

Your dominant hand is placed where it cant manipulate the face as easily its just pushing and pulling when youre close to the ball and it never points palm or back directly at the target like the left hand does.
The taking a divot is a big thing for me because i'm always afraid of thinning it.
One thing is to also take a practice swing. Likely will have to clean the grass off. It gives you a feel. It's a feel shot. Keep feet close and don't pull your arms back too far.
this dude is great everything i wanted to know :)
Ima listen to this guy. He played in the masters
Bro, I’m better than brad at the nipper now! That helped so much!
Thank you!
Also have a question. I’m intermediate and the only check/spinner I can hit is actually an unopened face, ball back instance, good contact. Comes out low (even with a 60) and skids a couple of quick times and stops
Brad is goated
What’s the difference between the nipper and the flop? They both are shots that need to stop quickly, but I guess the difference is height? If so then when would you choose one over the other? It seems like you would want whichever one would stop the quickest once it hits the green, since height doesn’t really matter.
This video is fantastic, I hope to be hitting nippers like Mr. Dalke in no time! 15:28
killer stuff BD. what course is this btw?
Would love to see chipping vs more full swing
Bubbie needs to watch this one
not sure if I missed it in my first watch through, but was there any mention of what bounce you are using for shots like this off tighter lies? Guessing it is fairly low but just not sure how low for these specific types of shots
Thanks Brad... But how do you have the face so open and not have the ball pop up, but rather shoot forward 3 feet high and spin fast so it checks up hard?
