How to Pitch the Golf Ball over a Bunker

- Contact/email: matt@golfsidekick.com for collaboration/partnership opportunities DOMINATION LIFE COACHING: Commit to something. It doesn't have to be the pin. Commit to some part of the green and eliminate the bunker form your mind by going over the least carry or over an area where there is no bunker between you and the ball.
COMMIT. That's the message today. Sometimes we don't always GO FOR IT at the pin. The wisest among us know we sometimes have to go bass fishing til we find a salmon. Then when we find a salmon, we hold onto it. Better to have a bass than to have no fish and be on the beach trying to get out of a hole you dug yourself. Go to the bass, and be happy with the bass.

No BS technique here or fancy pro-level flop shot nonsense. Just take the stress out of the shot and build your confidence. Remove the pin FROM YOUR MIND if it's too tight to hit to. Hit on ON THE GREEN. Your proximity to the hole after the shot will improve as you gain confidence and learn how to play in onto the green. Eliminate the carry if you can by aiming away from the bunker, or be happy if you can finish 15-20 feet past the pin. The bunker will vanish fro your mind and you will become the man you were meant to be. DOMINATION - reduce stress, reduce strokes. Save a life. Send the check.
I really LOVED it when your assistant or helper came running across, stopped, and posed before running to the flag/ hole? LOL! Thanks for finally doing a video about hitting over bunkers near the green because this is a major killer in my game. Unfortunately I don't have a 54 degree club so I guess use the correct club based on the lie? My shots are basically on barren areas over a bunker.
Practiced this in the morning on the 14 hole of my local course, just me and the sounds of the birds in the trees🏌🏾♂️
love your vids, finally broke 90 using only 4 clubs and a putter amazing how much easier golf is when your not putting it OB so often!
Great job playa. It's a long road to enlightenmnt but welcome
this is my favorite shot! I play it high, low, as a chip, as a pitch, as a flop, I love it. always hope for fluffy grass!
I haven't played golf for 13 years and I wont be able to play till I go to the UK in late summer IF i can find a set of clubs and a mate to play with BUT The Baus makes clips I enjoy watching for golf and life advice. Whaddavlogga!
What a beauty that course is.
I will say, your video series are incredible. The positive mindset displayed in these videos more high handicapper golfers need to accept and leave the ego in the carpark. Well done sir.
GIOTG, this alone has saved me shots, just that simple mindset. Baus stuff Matt!
Will start using this strategy in the morning. Golf starts in Melbourne Australia tomorrow. I’m playing twice this week and am really looking forward to a couple of relaxing games. In the time away I’ve been trying learn about the mental game. Time for a new perspective. Thanks for the advice 🏌️♂️👍🏻
That's actually my favorite shot. Helps me visualize the landing spot
Great tips thank you. Used them on the course today and help me to shoot an 87 on my first round after lockdown.
Finally played my first 9 of the year today. Hit some good shots and some bad shots. Managed my round the whole way though and had a great time. I don't get to practice much, but just learning your course management techniques has already had a positive impact on my game. The wind was really tough today and contributed to a few poufies, but hey, it's better than being stuck inside!
Very good advice. Obstacles like bunkers or water do have a habit of getting in your head. A pleasure to see Teaski practising her putting.
You know it. You also know how awful my putting has been
What is going on. Practicing for the tan? 🌞🌞 what a baus haha
Great advice! Get it on the green!! Too many people get too cute right here and make a Tripple instead of a bogey.
Just going golfing... gunno go full “de golf sidekick” today 🤞
Although bunkers are out of play today... equals aim for the bunker from the trees and get a good drop near the green.👌
I have learned to eliminate the rinky dink and binky bonk by not giving myself enough time to allow them to rise in my mind. Stand behind ball, see the shot, address the ball, (no more practice swings) and hit all within 5 seconds. Success, guaranteed!
Love the grey bucket hat!
This is so right. I sometimes get the yips over difficult chips. I shouldn't worry too much about getting it close to the pin because I'm a decent putter, but i sometimes forget. GET IT ON THE GREEN STUPID should be my moto. Maybe i should get this tattooed on my arm. 🤨
The most frustrating part about this video is how good the practice facilities are at the course you are on
That is a great set up to practice at
My course we got a putting green and a bit of grass around it but you can't really get any aerial action happening as you are surrounded by cars in the car park
It is almost an afterthought the idea of providing practice facilities for golfers at most courses
Thanks , could finally hit over the bunker without fear
Panty liner shape?!?! That’s hilarious!
Love ya channel mate. Finally broke 80 with no clubs just a pencil, JK. Keep it up and please hit me up if you are ever in Sydney, Australia my shout.
Lekker advice !! Thanks man 😁
Had this exact shot on Saturday. Went right at the pin and chunked a chip into the bunker. Due to covid restrictions we are supposed to play them as ground under repair so I pulled it back out and as I took my stance I heard Matt’s voice in my ears “just get it on the green man!”
I just subscribed and I love your recommendations on the mental side of the game, it's inspiring.
I hit fairly well but have issues with aiming. Could you give some tips on aiming at your target?
Chris B sure playa
Great advice Matt! Too many are trying to emulate PGA gods on highlight reels. If your course management is ok you shouldn’t leave yourself many of these dinky shots (follow the way of the playa😀)
He speaks the truth people!
Teaski is such a goofball. Her love of the game, so pure. Waddasista.
She sure is a goofball. Can't live without her
@@teatimegolf There she is! Got to check out your channel! Long overdue.
Good tip thanks
Love the appearance of teaski!
I regularly annoy him whilst he films lols
@@teatimegolf regular sister Love!
No macho BS, love it.
what I wouldn't give for the short game area at my local course to be this vacant. Now with covid its roped off to 3 sections and only 1 person per section and 2 bunker unfortunately both are always packed with 1-3 people waiting in line just go get access
LOL waddajoke! Chipping doesn't spread virus. #science
Is it the higher the number on the bounce, the easier it goes through the rough? My 56 has 11 deg. My 52 has 10...would one be better for deeper rough vs tight fairway lie?
Where you get your bucket hat?
More teaski, her enthusiasm is excellent.
Channel is up :)
"ok I'm a bous" lol
What’s your name...
What’s your name?
Good question 😂😂😂
Awesome!
Maybe I'm wrong but I believe a clean wedge face is more important than clean grooves. It's the face that spins the ball; not the grooves.
I just got a new wedge and threw my 58 degree in the lake. It was so worn out, that the ball never spun. It's probably a combination of dry clubface, deep grooves, and clean of debris
Love it.
Very difficult to even focus on the pin when your sister roams the green in full view of the target as well as the camera. With this in mind, said sister should become the initial target with a much less lofted club. Possibly a Driver. Then, by eliminating her, you now have a clear path to the primary target, (the pin) and can now focus on its elimination from your mind, rather than her (said sister) romping about as if she is the primary focus. (Eliminate Sister + Eliminate Pin = Focus on Target). Or something like that. Anyway, even a 20+ handicap crapping his pants knows this! 😁❤⛳🏌️♂️
Then no more fun content for you Mr Shannon.
Are your hands ahead of the ball?
Yes
@@GolfSidekick Thank you.
Waddabucket! MacGyver mullet incoming?
That’s what I always say before these shots, no binky bonk bullshit
The best
Voice....What’s your name
Matt... Are you a subscriber?
Voice.... yes I am
Matt..... It’s anything you want it to be baby !
"Lovely chaps!"
I subscribe to your channel....it's like we have seen you here before?
How much bounce does your 54 have?
11° but there is no grind, it's pretty square. I am going to look for a heavier, meatier 58° too now,maybe get the TM milled grind as well
@@GolfSidekick I am not selling but Taylormade milled grind 2 is a beast for check and spin. 💦
If I'm using the putter next shot, it's a result.
I have actually never seen Matt’s eyes
Me neither
Golf Sidekick hahaha laughed out loud for real.
Me neither.
What he's saying is, as Alan Watts says (in the never ending space time continuum), a knife cannot cut itself. A golf club cannot hit itself. A Baus cannot see his own eyes.
Tea Time Golf now THAT’s saying something.
Quite a distraction on the green lol
LOL .... *Playa* But Matt, my course is unique.
*Matt* Playa, please
*Playa* But Matt
*Matt* Playa, please
*Playa* But
*Matt* Playa ... please
Sound advice...no rinky-dink, pinky-ponk
Aaah, those little sisters, always so demanding... respect though, you didn't lose the focus, not even mid-sentence - maybe she should try a little harder...
I thought the same thing..those of us with sisters can relate..I’m 33 and my sister is gonna be 38 next month and I am still able to ignore her with ease
Use your resources.
Second!
First
Yeah, focusing on the landing area obviously beats just a raw pin targeting.
So...aim for the pin, then. :D
