During this round, JMac joins me for 9 holes on our first day at Els Club, neither of us had played the course before. What's the difference between a 90 breaker and an 80 breaker and how can you go from a Break 90 to a Break 80 golfer?

What's the difference between a mid/high handicapper and a low handicapper?
I think the differences are mainly around the green. JMac can hit a good ball.
He could probably improve that driver to become more reliable and thereby hit lower irons into the greens. His putting has improved by he still has the occasional three-putt which hurts him badly.
Getting up and down from areas that are easier for you makes the golf game a lot easier. I mean, short siding yourself behind a bunker onto a tight pin is not going to yield good results.
You always want to play for your shot shape so that a straight shot leaves you a decent up and down chance. Three-stabs and easier chips would be helpful.
Of course, hitting approaches closer would be the most ideal which would entail having more accurate mid irons and also getting within short iron range. But how do we do that without some pro help or a LOT of practice? I say start at the green, learn that short game like a baus and you'll get s close to 80, it will make your head spin.
To shave off the final strokes, some lessons to hit a longer club will make all the diffrence. JMac is a great playa and I see him breaking 80 in the future. LIKE A BAUS.

I immediately shaved 10 strokes off my handicap by not playing the last 4 holes. Now I can just focus on drinking from hole 15-18. 🤣⛳🥃
That is possibly the best way to get your score down, will try it.
Genius
If that only shaved off 10 strokes you should have kept playing!
You smart
If you ever want to compare a 80 vs a 110 I’m always available
Lol, same
if you ever want to compare an 80 vs a 190's shooter I'm always available.
This comment caught me off guard lmfaooo😭💪

Jack Kelly still no science. Otherwise he would win every week.

I live in Finland so the golf season is only about 6 months long, but now that the season is kicking off I am once again (like last season) starting to binge your videos. Keep up the great work!
I was a seldom golfer before retiring at 53 when I decided to take it seriously. At the time I was shooting in the 90s. Best lesson I learned from my course pro was to watch myself and other high handicappers and notice how often they are short of the pin. With other course management tools I was regularly in the mid 80s and within three years was in the high 70s.......

Ben Hogan = baus , surely ! (He tried to never hit a shot in a tournament that he'd never practised outside the tournament too.
Just started watching this channel, I subbed immediately. You explain the decision making process and mental side of the game so well, while being extremely entertaining and hitting some great shots too. Love watching your videos, keep them coming!
Getting fitted for my driver and then putting my ego aside and just hitting smart shots instead of trying to make hero shots, shaved my strokes from 104 to 89. I still struggle with approach shots and distance but you can save a lot of strokes just by not trying to do too much.
I absolutely love this concept of a side by side breaking 80 and breaking 90! Genius!
man JMac has improved LEAPS and BOUNDS since I first saw him on this channel
He is a baus, think he shot 82 the other day
@@GolfSidekick If JMac shortens his swing (stops wrapping the shaft behind his neck like John Daly) he'd be way more accurate because he'd square the club face up more frequently. My 2-cents. I enjoy watching these videos, learning course management is a great way to simply enjoy the game more.
Liked the video. Entertaining and informative. Especially like the shot-tracker.
I am an old, decrepit, broken down golfer of 72 years. I can remember the days when I "broke the numbers": 100, 90, 80, par, sub-par. And I've learned a little bit during this trip through the numbers.
I've learned that the wonderful thing about breaking those higher numbers is that you can improve quickly and dramatically. And you can do this with no lessons; it doesn't require a good grip or any technical thoughts or lessons. Simply spend most of your warm-up and practice time on or around the practice putting green.
Definitely. But that type of wisdom will be rejected by many!
15:23 JMAC has the moves, the ole tap it in and reach at the same time trick. Love on the links.
wow, what a course
I’ve been focusing on stress free golf and my avg score has gone from mid 80 to high 70! Love the videos keep them up
BOOM! That's a difficult leap to cut those last few strokes
Matthew Kelly
Hey Matt, I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate your videos. I love that they are “golf instruction” in the sense of mechanics, but the mental approach to the game. This is so important because it’s nearly impossible to execute a good golf shot (much less several in a row) when you’re feeling frustrated, angry, or unconfident. It’s been great watching your journey as well as those of others on the channel that are not pros or scratch golfers, but just regular people that want to enjoy the game and find ways to improve.
This year I finally broke 90 and more importantly, I’m enjoying the game more, even when I’m not having a good round. Your videos were a huge part of that! I’m still learning to put my ego aside, but you’ve helped me realize that being able to get out and play is a blessing, and there’s no point in investing the time if it’s not going to be enjoyable. Thanks for the videos and I hope you keep making lots of them!
Thnks playa, that's what it's all about. Well done on breaking 90 and keep enjoying - the after effect of enjoyment is lower scores like a true playa
Dang, Jmac has improved so much since I last watched a video featuring him. Way of the playa!
So glad I found your videos. This is the mindset I need to develop, put way too much pressure on myself to play like I’m a pro. Bogey player here I come!
Just watching to hear the word Baus in as many conjugations as possible 😂
I have come to realize how different people (golfers) are. If I don't break 90, it is always, without question, an issue in ball striking. As soon as I am within 120 of the green, all issues go away. I have never finished a round thinking "if I only had putted better today" or "if I only had come out of that bunker in 1", no , it's always just "damn why didn't I find the ball in that rough" and essentially lost balls. I can leave my driver at home, it doesn't matter, I can snap hook a 6 iron off the tee into the OB with similiar frequency. I have really smooth feel for the ball and club as long as I swing below 45mph, after that all bets are off, I will hook it 280 into the next village on bad days. But my best buddie plays like a robot until he is 120 of the green and then, depending on the day, anything can happen. People and their struggles are really different I think. Looking at my stats from the last 10 rounds, it's pretty clear that my whole handicap is just an artifact of lost balls. If I recalculate my scores with "free mulligans of the tee", my hcp would be closer to 0 than to 14. I need no help in my short game. I have just no idea how to stop losing 6-8 balls per round. And this goes to show the difference, give another 14 hcp free mulligans and they will probably not turn into scratch golfers, they would benefit more from some relief around the green.
The high handicap flop shot!! OMG too funny
I was praying so hard that he would make the 6 footer for par on the one where he played the ol' lazer bank shot.
Perfection. The details about the whole and club, label showing distance to the pin, shading showing area to aim and to not aim for, shot tracer and commentary. All in all perfection. I'm an improving 100 strokes player and will try and get down to 90 this year. Thanks for the help 🏌🏻♀️🏌🏻♀️🏌🏻♀️⛳
graeme maguire hey boyfriend. Good luck playa and look at the back catalog of videos. There are lots of helpful things. More breaking 100 and 90 videos coming this year
I played my first ever round of virtual golf yesterday. Hasn’t taken a full swing in 3 months and didn’t stretch. Not feeling to great the day after lol.
Virtual?
@@HankTheTank23 some of us live in countries with cold winters and snow so yes there are golf bars with the best simulators and booze that operates through the winter! It's a good bit of fun but if you go more than 20 tines ite worth to invest in your own garage simmy like I did paid 6000 for the setup and did a lot of the work myself but I do weekend and monthly tournaments with 10 lads. 50 on weekends 100 on the monthly winner takes 80% 20% stays with the house. End of winter season we do one big tournaments 200 buy in that takes two weeks as it's four rounds 2 guys get cut every round. Final round is a foursome ( they can play individually or together if they're golf partners ) lowest score wins 1500 and the prize pack ( last year I did 150$ gift card to golf town & a dozen prov1s plus you keep the kings course trophy for the season. Second gets money back rest stays with the house. Byob.
Well done! It's good to see how much better JMac has gotten. He's going to beat you one day, ha ha. I play with two different groups and the one with better players definitely shows you where the path of improvement lies. Short game and consistency.
Here's a few reasons I really like this channel:
1. High production values. Holding the camera steady isn't that hard, is it? Apparently it is for many other channels.
2. It doesn't take itself too seriously. Golf is supposed to be fun. Death match golf just isn't fun for me.
3. Real humans, playing real golf, warts and all.
4. Less swing technical analysis, more mental.
Keep up the good work.
Thanks playa, that is the aim of the channel. No confusing bollocks, just some stuff we can all use and improve with. I hop to reach more subscribers this year and induct them into the Way of the Playa Hall of Fame and work with them to have more fun and control their games better out there
I haven't played golf for over 13 years but I'm loving these vids and feel like a better player! Ty and keep them coming when you can!
Awesome stuff sir! GIOTG - Get It On The Green - so absolutely simple but such amazing advice, I have to consistently tell myself that while playing. I went from a 21 capper to 17 this year just by leaving ego in the car and only making shots I know thanks to this mad scientist!! :) And that was with some poor putting which is the work I'm doing this winter (ruler drill before bed).
Thanks Normzy. Your season will be starting soon Better limber up
Absolutely amazing and a great pleasure to watch!!! By far one of the best Golf videos I’ve stumbled upon. Thank you for your amazing content.
Way to go j-mac loving to see you out-Matting Matt on the first two holes 😁
LOL science proves me right
Loved the vid. Shows me I need to get my headspace right, worry about my games and learn to course manage myself better. Top vid, very basic but great tips. Thanks guys.
The high handicapper flopshot. Fantastic! 😂👍🏻👍🏻
And the „Guten Tag“ was well pronounced.
Your narration abilities are great. I really enjoy learning the mental side of the game from someone that can recognize where others are in their journey and offer smart strategies for improvement. Subscribed!
Watching your vids the last couple weeks inspired me to apply your strategies. I will say, they do work. I went from shooting mid to high 90's to shaving off nearly 10 strokes per round. My last two rounds were 89 and 86 respectively! With a little more consistency with my driver plus getting closer to the pin on my green shots, I feel 70s are within reach.
Once you see the truth, you cant unsee it
Find someone that loves you like JMac loves his hybrid!
That pitch across the bunker by Mac was ice cold!! Well done
Dude Perfect Trying To Shoot An 80 This Summer In Golf... Big Video I Suppose 😂😂
GOD DAMN! Best golf creator on RUclips. I have never felt as good about myself as I do after watching one of your videos. Currently at a 19 handicap and just dropping every round. I can feel my first sub 90 round coming soon. "Not good or bad, just where I am in my journey" So fucking simple.
Well said at the end. Do what you can do, don't worry about what anyone else can do.
I washed your video last night and went to go play today, didn’t get a scorecard and just played my game and hitting clubs I felt comfortable with. Played with 2 better players and came in 2nd place with an 83 best score ever. Thanks for the video.
Should have included Teaski: "...and breaking 100." BTW, make sure to tell her that I subscribed to her channel, and for this 90s shooter, it's baus. Happy New Year to you all.
Sean I saw your sub. Thank you!
I am loving these real world insights. I need to improve my game by 4 shots this year to get to single figures and have found some improvement potential in my short game recently. I am also taking lessons through the winter. Can't wait until the new season, I will be ready.
You'll do it. Whatever you focus on and prioritize, you will get
You can see the confidence in jmacs swing. Well done 👍🏻
He was swinging some kind of sexy here
Why did dude perfect link me here
That's my question bro
Because they want peopl to be enlightened
I think a large part of improving your scores is being able to play to your strengths on the course and defending against weaknesses. If you have great touch, play closer to the green. If you don't, manage the course and keep full-shots in your hand. Continue to practice on your weaknesses until you have enough confidence to bring them onto the course.
Another thing I've noticed that has helped me bring my handicap from an 16 to a 5 over the past 3 seasons is not chasing a score. I can start a round with back-to-back double bogeys and not be rattled because I know that I can make those strokes back over the course of the round. I feel like too many golfers get in their heads after a mistake or bad bounce and begin to play outside of themselves.
You sir are enlightened indeed and I agree 10000% with everything you said
@@GolfSidekick thank you! This game is a never-ending marathon, you just need to stay in the race!
He's spot on at the end of the video. No one cares if you shoot 72 or 102 as long as you're keeping up and fun to play with.
Why did dude perfect send me here? What’s the announcement
me too
Big Announcement Is They're Trying To Shoot An 80 After The Covids Disappear From The Courses
@@CousinSqueeze LOL
@@GolfSidekick 😉 Good Video Though! I Watched It! And Subscribed
mustve been a mistake
14:00 is why we all love golf
That shot at 13:53 was so well executed...
Barring the pinned divot comment, just checked out this channel for the first time and really enjoyed the content. Very useful course thinking for a newer amateur player like myself. Thanks for taking me through the thoughts and clubs as you worked around that beautiful course!
My golf game has been interesting. I rarely go to the range or the putting green before I tee off, my buddies and I prioritize on speed over our scores haha on a bad day I’ll shoot 100 and on a good day I’ll shoot 85 or so. One day I played 9 by myself and just focused on low stress golf and other principles I find on your channel and I shot 37 that day. Whatta day thank you Matt
Waddaman Jacob! 37 is the shizzle!
JMac..what a baus. Playas, this stuff works. Just shot 80 with a double on 18. Previous best 85. 70's are coming. Thanks Playa in Chief.
Lovely playa!
i can watch you, jmac, brian, and t'ski play all day - these are all such gold - please find a way where you all can commit the rest of your life to traveling the world playing golf together and posting dope playa vids :) k thnx :P
We will endeavour to meet your needs.
Have some fun, such an important mindset!
YES MAN!
I just randomly found this channel. What an awesome video
Excellent, you from MY or SG?
Happy new year of the playa, Matt, and at least 2020 hours of fun on the golf course!
Great video! Just another reason why short game is so crucial.
Statistically you're better off hitting a longer club as close to the green as possible vice laying up to a full swing club distance. See James Sieckmann video. Pros love half wedges. In addition to eliminating 3-putts, also avoid 2-chips (chunks and skulls). These add many strokes a round. So learn to chip it close. Last advice: on approach shots, hit one longer club than your distance and swing easy. You'll hit more greens, make more pars and birds. Cheers!
100% agree with putting ego aside and play your game to your strengths, ego is a mind game that is easily played
Loved the high-handicapper flop shot. Executed like a baus ... whataplaya
Short game and course management. A player that can break 90 but not 80 generally keeps the ball in play most of time but when they miss the green in regulation they struggle to get up and down. A player that consistently breaks 80 but not quite scratch will miss their share of greens but often they are able to chip on and one putt to save more pars. They are also good at managing their misses to avoid big numbers on the scorecard.
15:41 That backswing is enormous.
Man quarentine really hitting dude perfect
Yes they are looking to buy out my channel
Course management is the biggest way to lower scores. I can hit 300yd drives, 180yd 7 irons, and im decent at putting, but a lot of times i try to get cute with some shots so im always in the 80s. No doubt in my mind if I worked on course management (with the help of properly fitted clubs at some point) I could be a consistent 70s player.
Jmac is killing it!👍🏻🏌️♂️
think he put up an 82 the other day like a deadly baus
Jmac doesn’t look at the ball when putting! Not seen this approach before... he’s obviously improving so keep up the good work 👍⛳️
10:48 That 7 iron bump and run was so money. Most high handicappers would never think about taking a longer club there. Those type of shots can keep the larger scores away
Golf as in life: commit to a plan, and if it sucks, get a new plan. I love this video!
Love the simple but important advice! Thank you for a simple plan that can help anyone be more mindful of the shots to play rather than trying to force too high skill level concepts that are beyond that players abilities.
Thanks playa. Brilliant observation and in a nutshell that’s the game I’m preaching
Playing this morning I duffed a shot.. instantly started humming the tuba
J-Mac's swing looking great! Waddastudent!
What country are you from? The accent sounds familiar.
I can’t agree more, 3 putts will kill a round in a hurry. Trust me, I know. Will you, Teaskie, and JMac come play a round with me in Colorado, USA? Keep up the great videos.
I hope to come to the USA now in 2020
Anyone else here thought this was Dude Perfect?😂
Same I'm soooooo confused
Yeah
Yep
Yep
MJCobz i did
Golfed today and was my first time breaking 90! Shot an 85 :)
Waddaman! Excellent achievement playa
Good to see you both using centre shaft putters Matt. JMac's putting stroke needs some work but his game has come on miles. Great video as usual!
JMac was playing on greens here a clear 2 feet faster than any green he is used to in Malaysia, where most courses run below 9 on the stimp. usually 8 to 8.5
That's one hell of an adjustment for most mid to high handicappers
Im only here for dude perfect, now what happened 😂
They are going to be creating Dude Imperfect with me so leave your comments here
jmac looking at the hole when putting....
Just like a hockey playa
As always, a great video. Positive golf is fun golf.
J-Mac playing a brand these days! Great to see
JMac is a brand
So true!! I play with guys that bomb the ball and I'm always trying to keep up with their driving. This video CHANGED ME!!
I guess I should know this, but what is a good example of playing from the green back?
One of my favorite videos so far!
What should he have hit there instead of the flop? (srs)
Course looks awesome. I'm a beginner. This was a fun video to watch.
What a playaaaaaa.... Whataaaa coach...... I've gone from 105 in June 19 to 84 last Sunday thanks to your videos and tips.
BOOM 21 shots - that's some gain
Just signed up to a club so I'm joining at 28 handicap until I've 3 cards in and will need to start playing from the whites. Keep up the quality vids bro.
course looks amazing
I crack up every time I watch this guy.. Love it
JMAC's ham fisted putting grip is his putting problem. No flow in that stroke. 100% agree on course management being the best way to improve strokes on your game. great video. Looks like you guys have great fun! JMAC could easily shoot 80. He plays pretty smart overall.
JMac was playing on greens here a clear 2 feet faster than any green he is used to in Malaysia, where most courses run below 9 on the stimp. usually 8 to 8.5

Superb
JMAC is straight beast out there! Much improved!
WOTP is growing on you J-Mac. That hybrid is worth a try at almost every tee. 💪🏻☀️😎
Would've been. Cracked it's face about a week ago. 😣
Oh that was the club you cracked?! Saw your post on FB. Hopefully you find a better than satisfactory replacement. Nice to see your improvement J-Mac!
You have one of the best channels bro! Thank you!
Who else got this link from dude perfect??
Me

Yes same

Marcus me
Oh, it's easy for you because....well, I'm not sure, but I'm a very bitter person, so I have to assume there must be something. Maybe the butterfly effect coupled with trade winds.
Good stuff Matt.
You're spot on about indecision and commitment. I've lost track of the amount of times I've addressed the ball not sure if I have the right club in my hand with the end result of, usually, some sort of duff shot.
LOL Derek waddaman, waddacommentor. Commitment is phase 1 really. Without it, we have no game
Fantastic video, thank you for breaking it down!
Thanks for taking the time Playa
Awesome progress for J-mac! Gives me hope for this coming summer.
This is a very nice video. Well done, well commented, good sound, nice music (and good mix). And: as always, the secret lies in the short game. It is practically all I practice, actually. The course you played on looked really nice, by the way, and quite challenging bunker landscapes..
Lots of great course management tips Matt!! Great golf vlog and that course looks so sweet!! Happy New Year's too!!
Not too bad considering there was a major drought there!
IF, you ever come to Australia give us a shout would love to have a hit with you! Well done J-MAC! Game looking good!
Same goes for if you're ever in Johor Bahru
J Mac For sure ✌🏼
J Mac I’m specifically in Melbourne. Great sand belt courses 😉
Epic! Brother in law is moving to Aus in the next couple years, so I'm sure to be visiting sometime in the future.
Love it, let's jam
J Mac Putts without looking at the ball? Interesting =)
Works for most longer putts for me. Like lawn bowls then.
Shorter ones of late, head down and wait for the rattle.
I always get pleasure looking down at my clubs :) taylormade p730’s.... just take me to pleasure town.
