My name is Brian Fitzgerald - I'm an Australian full time golf coach living in Melbourne and coaching at the Eastwood Golf Club in Kilsyth..
FAQ:
How long have you been a golf coach? I qualified as a full member of the Australian PGA back in 1985. Wow I don't feel that old.
Why do you make videos for RUclips? That is a great question and one I get asked a lot. I love helping people play better golf and people tell me I have a very unique coaching style that is very simple to understand. We really should do things simpler. I just make them to help people and if people like my videos they can either come for a golf lesson in person or if that is not possible you could join my membership program and I can then view your golf swing or any part of your game and really help improve what you do.
Do you always change some ones golf swing? To be perfectly honest I try not to. If I do try to change some ones golf swing I have to have a pretty good reason for doing so and the client has to be fully engaged and committed to both regular coaching and practice in order to make that change. Most people say they will do both with good intentions but most fall away pretty quickly.
So my preference is to change things that will improve their score easily. There are so many different ways to do this.
What do you film with? - I have a few few different cameras I use. An old GoPro Hero 4, an iPhone 6 and iPhone X, A Sony ZV1 and an old Panasonic Handy cam (I'm using that less and less now). I record my sound on an old iPhone 4.
What do you edit with? - About a year ago I switched to Adobe Premiere - prior to that it was Pinnacle Studio
Do you make money off RUclips? - Yes.It took me over 100 videos to make my first total $100 off adsense and then another 50 videos to make my next $100. I think it will slowly change, but VERY slowly.
I really enjoy your videos, how can I support you? - Here's my ko-fi where you can buy me a coffee, beer or a burger should you wish (kind of like giving me a tip via : ko-fi.com/theg...
Thanks for watching!
Brian
A cracking lesson. Beautifully illustrated and clearly explained.
Thanks Brian
Thanks for your feedback back and support as always David.
Bless you my friend. This a video that can help everybody. You are the best Brian
I appreciate that Jesse.
You can even do this one indoors.
Make sure the other half is out first though,...
Brian
As always Brian, with the use of a towel, you've come up with a unique drill for golfers to improve their iron play. Of the two drills you showed, I like the one with the tees better because it give me feed back as to where I'm making ground contact, whether it be before the tees or after. I'm at an age where I'll take a shallow divot every time. A deeper divot would definitely take away my limited club head speed. :-) Well Done Brian!
Thanks John
I use the tees reguraly now I am back coaching from grass at my new venue.
You could also place another tee in front of the ball and see if you can hit the ball then tee.
This would give you 2 reference points.
Brian
Thanks Brian. I've been struggling with fatting my irons, and spent considerable time last week working on my strike. I found that when I swayed too far on my backswing, I couldn't fix it and hit the ball fat. I found trying not to get my nose behind the ball on my backswing helped me get ahead of it on contact, and resulted in some solid strikes yesterday on the course. Unfortunately, I traded iron striking for putting and hit over 100, including a 4-putt on the 1st - golf's cruel!! Will play with this drill at home, thanks!
Golf is a cruel game Adi. Just when you sort out one element another misbehaves.
Just keep plugging away.
Brian
Great video again and somewhat timely as l played yesterday 22 H'cap against a 12 H'cap and noticed that whilst able to hit as far most times by muscling the ball down the fairway, his ball flight was much better and was able to land it softer at times.l will have to go through your previous video's for further tips.
Thanks Brian
I’m glad you enjoyed the video. Better ball contact is something every one should work on but it doesn’t have to mean networking your golf swing to achieve it.
This drill is a ripper. It can also improve your bunker play.
Brian
Thanks very much Brian - another great tip and I like the exercise. I better smuggle out a towel! 🤗
Just make sure the wife is out before you do Steve.....
Brian
Hi Brian and thanks. In my earmest desire to be moving the low point forward with everything moving to the lead side as you say, I find myself with a steep and over the top path. Yes, divot in front of the ball, but pointing left. If I keep my head behind the ball the path is more in to out but low point is then behind the ball. Not sure how to get the good but not the bad.....
Hi Michael.
You could try the following drill in conjunction with the towel or putting a tee in front of th ball like we have discussed in the past.
It would be a good combination.

Hi Jo.

Enjoy your round.
Brian
@@fitzygolfpro Bugger!! Thanks Brian 🙏🏽🙏🏽
I'm there Wednesday through Saturday.
hope this helps me I am a super fat hitting tired the shaft lean thinking it would help
It should help you a lot.
Keep things as neutral as you can and keep trying to move the towel.
Brian.
Merci Brian .
PS: I've just received a complaint from the napkin association, who don't appreciate the way you treat them.
Bonne journée et bon golf Brian .
Enjoy! They can always be used for crying in as well Marc.
@@fitzygolfpro 😂😂🤣🤣
This is completely off topic and I do apologise,but do u know with distances for your clubs,how much do u subtract from or add to it for hot or cold weather?I thought u did a video on that and I can’t come across it 😮
Hi Michael.
I did a RUclips #shorts video a couple of weeks ago where I mentioned the things that you need to take into consideration when choosing a club. Temperature was one of those variables. I didn't put a number on it though.
@@fitzygolfpro what would the % number be as a guideline?
It varies a lot according to temperature.
On super warm and super cold days it could be a club and a half.
@@fitzygolfpro so if it’s warm would u say club down(or about 10% less) & vice versa for cold weather?
I don't think percentages work Michael.
1 club = 7 meters.
Brian
👍👏👍👏
Thank you.
