lol i love the Death stare... i wanted to use that yesterday... my ball went between fairways and the other group picked it up... and I was left with......like what to do! BUT i let the effect me for like the rest of the round.. and it made golf not fun...but next time..i'll say something and just retee.... the problem is now it will back up people.... just RUDE! your right .. they shouldn't be on the course.....ok ok... my soap box BUT looks like you're in Cali... i hope you come up to NorCal
You were a lot calmer than I would've been... it's incredibly dangerous hitting up the back of the group ahead... they would've been told in no uncertain terms to watch it!
Love your content! Watching you has actually improved my game MORE than watching 'instructors' or tutorials! Quick question, can you post or write down your irons and their lofts? Your distance and club selection is super helpful in the videos, but w different manufactures using different specs, easier to know if your 7iron is my 7 iron, or possible my 6 or 8. Much thanks in advance and can't wait to see you on LPGA soon! 😊🤞🙏
Your videos have developed my mental game from the ground up. I no longer dwell on poor shots. I now have a consistent pre-shot routine. My club choices have dramatically improved, and now my target selection will as well. Thank you so much Gen!
Mmmm id study that all day lol. But ya when her right leg turns in with her hips on the downswing in one fluid motion. Hips and legs turn and then shoulder and arms follow. A lot of rotational force and the best part was her driving her feet into the ground as she downswing... creating that extra force downward and forward as she extends and finish her swing.
Good morning, Gen. Seriously, that's more than a golf etiquette breach. That's unsafe! I was never even a bogey golfer. But growing up on crowded NY courses, we learned golf etiquette quickly! FORE!
OMG those people behind you guys were really in a hurry haha, but I am guessing they wanted to watch you play though. Were you playing from the black, blue and white tees? Some of them were all the way back..
Great Video Gen! I had to pause the video to make sure I saw it correctly when you hit driver off the deck. I think you should do a video on just that--just for fun. I've never even considered hitting driver off the deck because a) I never practice it b) the opportunity rarely comes up and c) it's never worth the risk I had a friend in LA once take the ball a someone hit into our group, tee it up and hit it back at them. I really like the in depth analysis on #17. How long does it take you sort all this out on a new course, just a single practice round? My home course is a Pete Dye design and it's taken me dozens of rounds to even start to figure out where to aim on each shot.
Golf etiquette question: 5:14 Here I would have let my playing partner shoot first as she was further from the hole and looked like she had already lined up the shot. I could be wrong though and don't want a Gen death stare.
This was just a tap in putt amongst friends. But I’d be extremely pissed about the group behind them all up in their seam. This is when I’d insist they pass just to get rid of them but only after giving them the death stare.
We were playing ready golf so it doesn’t matter who goes first 😊 but also she intentionally wanted to take her time cause she didn’t like the people behind rushing her 😂😂 you could see in the video they already drove because they hit their second shots already even though we were still on the green 🤦🏻♀️
@@Jerpavoo I'm guessing that even had they played through, they'd be crawling up the next group's backside. I get your point though. Get them outta your hair.
Very good feedback from the both of you. Thank you for taking the time to respond. I don't appreciate or condone slow play but if people are being aggressive like that behind me I play out each shot and let them know I won't be bullied. I believe we have all paid for the round so we have every right to play each hole to its completion in an orderly manner. I do have to work on my death stare though. I need to add that to my golf toolkit.
Gen, I think you did a great job explaining the procedures needed to select a target, club, and execution with great accuracy. Thank you for this great lesson.
yes i think we all don't like people rushing us , when you cant go any quicker thanks for the great advice on you insight into shot and target selection , very well explained, really enjoy watching your videos
Talking about Golf Etiquette, have you had any fans shouting "MASH POTATO" or "GET IN THE HOLE" while you're playing? What did you think of the golf fans etiquette while in america?
I took Golf as an elective back in college. Lots of the instruction was on etiquette, not as much on play. I do believe etiquette, which is really safety-based, is more important.
That happened to me on Friday on the 17th hole, a par-4, approach shot over a pond. A good tee shot is over a hill and rolls down near the pond. I hit a great drive that rolled just short of the pond leaving 105 to the green. After waiting for the others in my group to hit their second shots, I’m getting set to hit my wedge and I hear a “thump” and a ball lands about ten yards behind me. I hit my wedge and when I turned I saw that one of the guys I was playing with put that other ball onto a tee in the fairway (I guess to let the guy know he hit into us). I told him, “Don’t be THAT guy” and he removed the tee. In his defense, the guy that hit that shot couldn’t see us down by the water. As I was walking into the green to putt, the guy drove up in a cart and apologized (he was obviously shaken, and didn’t see us). I said “no worries”. After he drove off, I told my friend, “Now wouldn’t you have felt bad messing with his ball since he was genuinely apologetic?” Be this guy, not that guy ☝🏻 As far as that par-3 #17 … (I paused the video) I would hit my hybrid at the flag. PLANNING: What is it to carry the bunker on the left? If it’s playing 183 to the flag, I’m guessing it’s 170 to carry the bunker. The green slopes left to right, so I wouldn’t play away from that bunker, and if I play right side of green (to take the left bunker out of play) I’d bring the back bunker into play, or if my shot fades right, probably a tough chip from rough right of the green. SELECTION: That’s my 5-hybrid which I can hit high, easily clear 170 and land soft. A five iron might bounce & run off the green. EXECUTION: I love my 5-hybrid & have a lot of confidence in it. p.s. I didn’t consider playing short right to leave an easy uphill chip. 🙄 Oops! That’s why you’re a pro and why I occasionally get a big number 😉
They need better starters and rangers...who roam the course making sure people aren't taking six practice swings and lining up their 3-putt to save their triple bogeys.
the thought process, all the self talk you carefully explain and the mind set surrounding this game are things that set you apart for me. At one of my cubs i am quite often next to a young woman who plays on Tour. I could watch her beautiful swing for hours and her putting stroke is hypnotic. point is you are providing unique and useful content for golfers of all level of ability not just swing mechanics that may or may not be applicable. You deserve more subscibers. Those you have appear very loyal. please put out your paypal again. i would like to join others in offering well earned support.
So true. Look at your shot (not just the yardage), select your club and then just think about making the best shot. I've started playing after a 20 year hiatus and find myself second-guessing my club selection when hitting the ball. I just have to stop thinking after selection and just do it.
i almost got hit in the head by an errant drive (literally feet away, could hear the ball whiz past) a couple of months ago, and the bozos never even bothered to yell fore. these guys had a clear line of sight to me so there was absolutely no excuse. i can't remember the last time i felt so angry. i could have been killed. i'm really happy golf has grown over the past couple of years, but people need to understand their actions can have deadly consequences on the golf course. figure it out, people!!!
great video. i know that feeling of someone getting to you i was stuck behind a 2 ball and a 4 ball and they never let us play through. i finally tee of and lost 3 balls on the 3rd tee because i was waiting so long
At most NY courses (back in the day) if you showed up with less than four, you were mandatorily paired with someone, especially weekends. When I first played in rural Arizona... What a relaxing treat it was!
I played this course before, and wow... with your advise from all your videos, I would probably shave 10 shots from that day (from the same tees). Impressive play. I can see the difference of a guy that work too mush and practice little due to time constraint, compare to a talented lady who make this a living. Really enjoyed this video.
I've hit someone before (he came out from behind a tree and I had no chance to yell "FORE""), and it is the worst feeling to have hit someone. You're a sick person if you think it's funny.
Gotta love those guys. Etiquette is such a huge part of golf. It should be like getting a drivers license. You should have to pass a test or something….SMH
i must look at things or think about things differently than others, and i will probably get crucified here..I saw how the first time it happened, how it affected your next two shots. I would like to see you improve as a professional golfer, and to me this was a mental handicap with your game. I am in no way condoning the hitting up, there is no justification for it. but repairing divots is also part of golf etiquette.. i know a few clips ago you said that you do repair them, but it would be nice to see it happen occasionally.
OMG, was that hitting your driver off the deck at hole 15?
Hehe the shot was perfect for it! Clear and needed a little fade! 😁
@@GenevieveLingGolf no water hazard around the green, right?
Your birdie on hole 15 was gangsta 😎 great drive, driver off the deck, stiff wedge, 8 ft putt - ain’t no thang but a chicken wing!
Great video enjoying watching you play love to play with you one day but I’m in uk keep the videos coming

I so agree with Gen that idiots can spoil a round. I hate balls landing when I’m about to hit.
Excellent advice! Keep up the great videos!
You were a lot calmer than I would've been... it's incredibly dangerous hitting up the back of the group ahead... they would've been told in no uncertain terms to watch it!
I was a guest to my friend. If I was a member it would’ve been a different story 😂😂
@@GenevieveLingGolf 😄😄😄 That's where you're a better person than me Gen... I wouldn't have cared, member or not!
@@GenevieveLingGolf
You're a better sport than I am, Gen. But you're right. And you still have a golf game to play. Nice job.

Great to see you playing with such wonderful rhythm Gen. Love the three parts to preparing for approach shots. Thank you for sharing this🙂
When ball striking where do you look? In front of ball, behind ball, etc. I am curious. Trying to get some insight.
Thanks, Gen, Enjoyed the slo-mo swing too. BTY, I picked up a box of Titleist Pro V1x. What a difference between hitting this ball and my game.
I thought at first you were taking an iron to hit the other persons ball back towards the tee! Silly me, of course not. :)

Hi Gen, would really appreciate it if you could use a shot tracer, would help me follow your ball flight. Excellent video though 😎😎
They just updated the app. Will be able to add shot tracers again soon 😊
@@GenevieveLingGolf What is the shot tracer app you are using? Is it possible to use it via a regular laptop running Windows 10 or it is a phone app?
Do they have halfway huts there? What do you think of them? I think they cause slow play.
They need better starters and rangers...who roam the course making sure people aren't taking six practice swings and lining up their 3-putt to save their triple bogeys.
I always watch every minute of your videos like this - thanks for your wisdom on shot making.
