    I’m 57 and just started golfing late last season. It didn’t take long to figure out golf is a little challenging, so figured lessons may be necessary. Took the first lesson last week and Rick’s tips are almost word-for-word the same as the instructors.
    Hopefully Rick continues with these instructional videos, might save me some money.
    Thanks Rick 🤘😎

      Be careful getting lessons.
      Make sure the instructor is truly trustworthy and very, very good. I played better golf before I ever had lessons. The instructor just wanted me to keep coming back. I wish I would've never gone to him.
      Some even say Tiger went to the wrong instructor and never was the same.

    I’ve watched a lot of Rick’s videos. The one ‘new’ tip I saw here, which I don’t think I’ve seen before, was the club being a couple of inches above the knee.
    That was helpful, as I understand the shoulder width, and the ball position, but struggle with how far away I should stand from the ball.
    Will be doing this, next time at the range.
    Thanks Rick! ⛳️

  • @swizlestick
    @swizlestick 5 месяцев назад

    This all highlights a very good point. The key to hitting good consistent shots is removing variables. I went from a 20+ handicap down to an 8 by slowly (years) removing the variables in my swing/setup. I will also say to anyone here looking to improve their game, TAKE LESSONS! While Rick is a great golf mind, he has not seen YOUR swing. You may watch a video and inadvertently 'fix' something that isn't broken.

I tried to bring it down to just a few inches above my knee and re-address and it feels so weird. Feels like I'm reaching a mile for the ball, but I'll have to try it out later with an actual swing to see if I can even make contact.

    One of top 3 issues in playing golf is the anxiety I have in trying to keep the game moving. I am not fastest player and more often than not find myself being pressured by other golfers and course marshals to keep'er moving. It really makes the game less fun. Resulting in playing far less golf than I would like to play. and much less desirable courses. Fortunately for me, my friends are supportive and patient.

    People, just because Rick is open about posting both bad and good rounds on RUclips does not mean he’s not an excellent coach. Do you think Hank Haney , Butch Harmon, or Sean Foley can hit the ball as good as the pros? Heck, even one of the worlds best short game coaches, Dan Grieves, acknowledges he’s not great off the tee and with his irons. Across all sports, some of the world’s best coaches aren’t as good you’d think they are. It’s even more ridiculous since Rick can probably break par on a lot of the mini courses we all play.
    Rick got popular on RUclips because he was posting these types of tutorials. Before he was a “RUclipsr” he was a golf coach. His advice has personally helped me go from an abysmal golfer to breaking 100. Let’s think about what we’re saying before we say it
