Hi Pete Can you do a vid containing all the advice for junior golfers (not beginners who have just started but mid handicapper) such as coaching, practicing, how to lower, handicap, clubs you need etc That would be really helpful for aspiring golfers like me
@@youtubeaccountidaho9858 hey, this goes to anyone who sees it, i’m 14 and a +0.3 handicap my school just got over and now it is summer and i am going to practice sooo much, what would be a good goal for my handicap by then? Thanks to anyone who responds and have a great day!
farm honestly bro, I would focus on just trying to lower your score by one or two strokes. I think one is realistic, I would work on every part of my game(of course), but specifically reading greens, putting, wedges, and shaping irons into greens, and possibly doing a worst ball scramble to see what you shoot.
@@foreword_858 ok thanks i’ll look try that stuff, i like to have lots of goals for stuff, i’ve talked to many people about what i should go for by the end of this summer and they say i can easily be 4-5 shots better(everyone is different i should be a lot better than i am if that makes sense) have a good day!
Thanks Peter for the advice for amateur golfers looking to turn pro !!!!!! I forwarded to my son (Ian-Thomas 19Y/O) who has been playing golf for 3 years and is currently a 2 handicap... He loves all aspects of the game and is turning that into a passion... I firmly believe if a person has a PASSION for anything they can achieve great things..... Hard work, practice, good coaching, work ethics are all parts of the building blocks of becoming great at anything but PASSION is what separate's the good from the GREAT!!! Great video's Peter! It's always a pleasure to view your videos and listen to your candid comments and humor on golf... It is refreshing and top notch mate!!!! Big Smile From Arizona USA
I'm qualified to teach a few subjects in the military and I've found over the years that whilst the lines blur people are generally practical or intellectually based in their learning processes.Personally I'm practical and for me being told how to do something isn't the same as having "hands on" whilst others want to understand the theory before starting.An honest personal assessment of your learning style I think is an important start point
Hi Peter! I’m 16 years old and have been playing for 2 1/2 years and I’m down to a 5 handicap and I learned how to play but watching your videos and I have learned so much from videos. Thank you for being my RUclips coach!
I am 15 and i play a 5 handicap and i do the same thing you done pete look at peoples swing like Phil Mickelson and copy his swing, and alot of the stuff you have said about swinging has been a major help
keeping working man, im 29 now. I was also an 8 at 15, got down to a 5.8 index and tore my rotator cuff senior year. If i have any advice for you it’s how important nutrition and exercise is as well as stretching and flexibility. I never did any of it, and relied on natural talent and athleticism. I also didn’t practice much, and now 29 i sincerely regret handing it with the level of immaturity i did. Hope this helps you or someone :)
- its a little half / half - I was a 4 handicap and over the past 2 years just from watching and incorporating new feelings into my game I’ve come down to scratch but I’ve also had a few coaches in the beginning to get me the information I need so I could self assess and self teach off of what I see now
This literary answered all my questions . think I'm going to come for a lesson with you Pete I only live 30 mins away from quest golf . and I started playing because of you and Rick.
Great vlog Peter; when I was a lad I wish I had been given the advice you just gave to the juniors. Good on you for taking the time to answer them and encourage them Enjoy your time at The Masters!
I feel like, the better you become the more understanding you have of the golf swing and watching vids and different teaching methods you can see what works for yourself and what doesn’t.
Super excited for you Pete! I’m sure the Masters will be an out of this world experience and I hope the tournament itself delivers another classic ending. Will be keepin my eyes glued to Twitter & Instagram for sure!
Pete, you lucky bloke. Augusta!!! I would love for you to do more of a junior series. My daughters are really enjoying the game but I can see the frustration on their faces when they can't get the ball to do what they want. We have been playing at our home course once to twice a week but they want to do more. I usually let them tee off where I am (there is no kids tees) and then place their ball where my drive ends up. To encourage them, that is where their strokes start to count.
I've played for 1,5 year, self-taught through tube videos (you and Shiels primarily) and I do what I can to copy you guys. Got my official handicap 170614 and play off of 16.9 at the end of the season with around 9 registered rounds. Have yet to take a lesson and will probs be a while before I do. I prefer to learn by doing and by watching experienced players :) Makes it more fun, especially when I get so much out of your videos. Keep it up, Pete and loads of thanks! (Y)
Peter, The best advise ever given "just enjoy it." I forgot that over the years, until I heard either you or Rick say it in one of your videos. At 50+ found I stopped enjoying it and was about to stop it all together. Started to enjoy it, and being a high handicapper, aint to bad, because I have fun with my friends and we get out often now. Thanks
Hi peter, I’m 14 years old and just barely played golf for a year. I shoot around 90 - 99. Because of Covid-19 All the local golf courses and driving ranges are closed, I have a putting Matt and would putt about 3-5 hours a day. I only played with my dad and haven’t learnt from any coaches. I really like to turn pro one day and shoot 70s or even 60s.
When I started playing I was lucky enough to have space to practice my technique and work on building a consistent swing with different clubs. It allowed me to track my shots that were straight or my shots that were struck wrong. I was able to practice 2 to 3 hours a week during the school term and up 6 hours a day or 30-36 hours a week during school holidays. What worked was copying my favourite golfers techniques and practicing it consistently, Phil Mickelson and Gary Player. I am currently working on getting back to playing again after a few years of not playing.
Just like trying to learn a beat on the drum kit, a metronome can really get you in the groove. I work with one set at 55 BPM and make a four count swing. First two counts to set up, third count for the top of the backswing and fourth count hitting the ball. It works!
I comprehend more and learn faster by first reading what happens in the golf swing then seeing it in slow motion. Some of my favorite swings to study are Louis Oosthuizen's, Adam Scott's, Bobby Jones's, Ben Hogan's and of course Peter Finch's.
Please I would love to see a more detailed video on juniors since I’ve just come out of a whole 6 weeks of shanks and almost got a hole in one today. Great vid btw
I love watching your Videos if that’s the terminology used, maybe I’m just showing my age, but I’m a big fan. You seem a top bloke & your swing is something of beauty.
Hi Pete, love the video. I didn't start playing until i was 18. My swing sort of mimicked my mates for the first few years. I have a few lessons and changed a few things. I got to 4 HCP and pretty much know my swing and roughly where I'm going wrong when I'm struggling. Never going to be a world beater. You tube instruction has giving me help with chipping/putting and understanding my equipment. Have a great time at Augusta
!Hey Peter, realize this is dated but curious about your comment late in the video and seeking advice. You mentioned it’s so much more beneficial to get in early and young. But realizing that golf is what I want to do the rest of my life as a pro “later” in life... What kind of advice can you give me other than practicing 5-6 times a week and taking lessons from a PGA Pro?
I think I was sitting in some of that traffic as well Pete! For me I feel I learn best through structured learning and then practice, practice and more practice!
Hey Pete so jealous of you going to the masters. In your video last week you said about uploading a video on more affordable trackman things. Any update on when that’s coming out? Really interested in seeing it
Hi Pete, I’m 40 years old, 4 handicap player. Ive recently took medical retirement. I want to teach golf. I love the game & it’s my life to be honest. I want to do this.
For sure. Realistically, the difference between a tour pro on the _actual_ tour and a scratch golfer is bigger than a scratch golfer and say an 18 handicapper. The difference in skill is just on a different level and it's not about just hitting balls all day.
Hi Peter i have been wanting to get into playing golf after a few years of not playing and was wondering what your thoughts are on people playing rounds of golf on there own to improve their game?.
I think its a good idea if thats what youd prefer, I quite like to spend time on my own practicing but alot of people would get more enjoyment out of going with a couple of mates.
I’ve had many people say I have a smooth swing. Watched and tried to imitate people who had a smooth swing. Lucky enough to be able to start relatively early (9-10)
I think just trial and error through practise is the best way. I'm 28 and literally just started ( played 9 holes 6 times 18 holes once) so I'm still going through that phase.
Practice practice practice! If you're just starting out, have a look through these bud, goes through the basics ruclips.net/video/xcNbT4TDuEQ/видео.html
The only way I feel I can change anything in my swing is to use drills and feedback/analysis from my bad shots when playing. Don't like the idea of machines and instruction, but I am struggling to find a swing that is consistant ( even off 12 and been playing 35-odd years!!!)
I learn loads from your videos, watching someone swing and trying to mimic seems to be the easiest way i learn new things about golf, telling me about it doesnt do much...and just fair warning, if you have watched pete's videos you will notice that on his draw back he slightly picks up the head of the club, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO MIMIC THAT....lol never worked out for me
As one who's moved from 15 to 7 over the last 4 years the best way I have learned is to read or watch (youtube) on theory and technique then try to implement in a manner that works for me. Tried to replicate others and found I'm overthinking the shot. Who knows though, maybe replication could bring to the next level.
Undoubtably, the best way for junior golfers to become great players is through coaching, but most importantly, it's having parents who emphasize the importance of having fun. Pick a great coach who has a proven system, stick with him or her and allow the relationship to be a long term endeavor.
Hey Pete what are my realistic chances going pro? I’m 18 still in HS and over the last 4 months I have gone from a 19 HC to about a 11. My plan is to go to community college for the next 2 years while grinding my arse off to get into college golf after those 2 years (practicing 5 hours a day) and working on my fitness. I am a pretty longer hitter I have about a 114 club head speed and I’m not in the greatest shape right now. Also what would be a good daily practice routine? I know everybody is different but a good starting point to base it off would be nice. If you reply to this much appreciated! Thank you.
Ricearony you need to practice deliberately in order to get really good at golf. Look up “Deliberate Golf Practice” and read articles on that. You’ll find tips and drills to help you develop a good practice routine. Good luck to you in your journey. I’m currently working on playing D1 golf next year so I know it’s not as easy as playing 36 holes a day and hitting 100 balls at the range one after another
I think your 'chances' are as good as anyone elses, you can do it, you just need to be prepared to put in the work. Have a look here for some tips when it comes to practice ruclips.net/video/gpLiObRUet0/видео.html
I’ve tried to smooth my swing as I have a massive over swing (John Daly has nothing on me) which leads to inconsistency’s. Slowing my backswing down just totally messed up my timing. So now I just accept I’m going to be inconsistent 😡😂.
To be honest look at not only how you grip the clubs but also how tight your gripping the clubs. I've been golfing since I was 6 and had the same problem throughout the years. So loosen your grip and make sure your gripping your clubs the right way
I just turn 16 I have been playing for 10 months and my handicap is 7 do you think someone like me can turn pro. I personally think I can. I practice 9 hours a week and play 3 times a week.
Really enjoyed this video. Actually it inspired us, so we did a similar concept on our channel with one of the PGA Tour Pros who trains with us - Cameron Davis. Keep up the great videos, we're loving them in Sydney :-)
I’m 16 years old and play of 28 but I am better than my handicap and my aim for my career is to be europro or challenge tour player I feel like this is a more reachable goal than being one of the best and hopefully I can qualify for a European tour event one day
Right... I‘m 18 I play of +2 and if I can be absolutely honest there is so little chance in me getting anywhere near european tour (I also dont have the time to do so :/ school and stuff) Buuuut if this is really your dream you really need to work hard and you will be able to achieve it. I hope you make it man... shoot me a message if you would like some advice or some inspiration ;) Have a good one
You can practice with whatever but if you're going to compete, you just need 14 clubs - you decide which. Exhaustive list: www.golfadvisor.com/articles/gear-golf-bag-equipment-accessories-16350.htm
Thanks pete I really really liked this vid. I see you like our South African boys💪💪I would really like a lesson but as I previously said that there is vast oceans between us😂
both. I like to keep my swing strictly my swing. By that i mean i dont want to exactly copy a players swing but to take little things from many golfers and try to make those changes in my swing. I only do that once a week and ive seen over 15 strokes improvement and my drives went from averaging around 260 to over 300. 110% around 330 carry and i dont want to sound like a douche but a lot of it came from baseball. The rotational power i have is absurd for somebody my size 6' 160. Athleticism helps but determination drives you even further. 18 yo
The best way to learn for me has to be through watching. But not always the players who swing like robots, but RUclipsrs who are more relatable and you can identify more with.
Have a great time Pete and buy a masters chair, good advice, 16th tee! Wear a hat and sunscreen this is not the UK and don't drink beer drink a lot of water. HOT!
Hi Pete

Will try and put something together Ben
Peter Finch Golf thanks pete
That would be a great video to add to the library Pete!!!!!!!!!!
Exactly because I’m a mid Handicap golfer and love your vids but they aren’t really aimed for players like me
I am happy to provide any help you need on this!
There was recent discussion on Australian radio that you need to be +6 to have a chance on tour. That's insanely good.
And you would need to be a +6 in competition not a +6 with your buddies. Big difference there that doesn't get talked about.

The Q&A videos while you are traveling are pretty cool. It probably makes traveling a bit of a pain, but this viewer appreciates it!
Ha no I actually really enjoy it. If i didnt, Id just stick to course vlogs!
I learn most from watching and direct interaction and explanation from someone with golf knowledge
- its a little half / half - I was a 4 handicap and over the past 2 years just from watching and incorporating new feelings into my game I’ve come down to scratch but I’ve also had a few coaches in the beginning to get me the information I need so I could self assess and self teach off of what I see now

Just like trying to learn a beat on the drum kit, a metronome can really get you in the groove. I work with one set at 55 BPM and make a four count swing. First two counts to set up, third count for the top of the backswing and fourth count hitting the ball. It works!
Cant say Ive tried that one!
I comprehend more and learn faster by first reading what happens in the golf swing then seeing it in slow motion. Some of my favorite swings to study are Louis Oosthuizen's, Adam Scott's, Bobby Jones's, Ben Hogan's and of course Peter Finch's.

Oh damn! Look forward to see it. Great videos and enjoy the masters. If you want to get me a souvenir I won’t say no 😂

Great to hear Ben
Hi Pete, I’m 40 years old, 4 handicap player. Ive recently took medical retirement. I want to teach golf. I love the game & it’s my life to be honest. I want to do this.

For sure. Realistically, the difference between a tour pro on the _actual_ tour and a scratch golfer is bigger than a scratch golfer and say an 18 handicapper.
The difference in skill is just on a different level and it's not about just hitting balls all day.

To be honest look at not only how you grip the clubs but also how tight your gripping the clubs. I've been golfing since I was 6 and had the same problem throughout the years. So loosen your grip and make sure your gripping your clubs the right way
Can you do an advice for juniors pls🙏🙏
can you do a more detailed video on advice for juniors?
Going to get some more junior content together
Great vid👍👍

Thx i want my first junior tournement after watching this video

Really enjoyed this video. Actually it inspired us, so we did a similar concept on our channel with one of the PGA Tour Pros who trains with us - Cameron Davis. Keep up the great videos, we're loving them in Sydney :-)
Thanks got en advice Pete 👍👍👍
:)
I have noticed a huge decrease in playing video games, it’s been about a month since I’ve even turned it on 😂
Same man! It’s crazy how “time to play some warzone” etc, turns into “time to go train” and it’s no question
I’m 16 years old and play of 28 but I am better than my handicap and my aim for my career is to be europro or challenge tour player I feel like this is a more reachable goal than being one of the best and hopefully I can qualify for a European tour event one day
Dude, coming from a fellow 16 year old who is off 10, no way buddy
Jack Rudge Good luck Jack. If you are off scratch at 16 it would still be a struggle to earn money from the game but everyone should have dreams👍
Euan Morrison what do you mean mate?
im 14 years old and im off 4
Right... I‘m 18 I play of +2 and if I can be absolutely honest there is so little chance in me getting anywhere near european tour (I also dont have the time to do so :/ school and stuff) Buuuut if this is really your dream you really need to work hard and you will be able to achieve it. I hope you make it man... shoot me a message if you would like some advice or some inspiration ;) Have a good one
I’m turning pro next year!!
Great stuff!!
Hi I’m 12 and I’m off 15 I have no good clubs what gear do I need
You can practice with whatever but if you're going to compete, you just need 14 clubs - you decide which. Exhaustive list:

Thanks pete I really really liked this vid. I see you like our South African boys💪💪I would really like a lesson but as I previously said that there is vast oceans between us😂
Road to a golf pros bay is never too long!
I LOVE IT!!!
Please make a junior golfer related video.
Looking at putting something together Jason
Hope you have a great time :)
:)
both. I like to keep my swing strictly my swing. By that i mean i dont want to exactly copy a players swing but to take little things from many golfers and try to make those changes in my swing. I only do that once a week and ive seen over 15 strokes improvement and my drives went from averaging around 260 to over 300. 110% around 330 carry and i dont want to sound like a douche but a lot of it came from baseball. The rotational power i have is absurd for somebody my size 6' 160. Athleticism helps but determination drives you even further. 18 yo
Sounds awesome Troy
The best way to learn for me has to be through watching. But not always the players who swing like robots, but RUclipsrs who are more relatable and you can identify more with.
Hope we're helping :)
Enjoy mate!
Cheers Marcus
